Hello,

I was wondering if there is, perhaps, a way to get Steam games outside of the officially supported games for AlienFX to utilize reactive lighting? I'd like to set it up for GRiD 2 and DiRT 3 so that it will react when I put the clutch in to change gears for GRiD 2/Change gears in DiRT 3(For crashes too).  Thus far I've found naught, hence this post.

 

Forgot to mention, it's on an Alienware 15 R2.

 

Thank you.

there is always AutoHotkey, im not sure thats going to be the final solution but you could probably use it in some way

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

AutoHotkey is a program that lets you create automated scripts to do stuff automaticly on your computer, im not super good at it but look at some tutorials on youtube and google a bit and see if it could help for what you are trying to do :)

At least, how would I go about using the AutoHotKey software in conjunction with AlienFX
