[2.0.76] Logitech RGB keyboard G512 lighting not working

Hello everyone!

1.) What did I do? I just started my game after a couple of months and loaded a save game to play.
2.) What happened? My Logitech G512 RGB keyboard didn't light up, it dropped and stayed completely dark instead.
3.) What did I expect to happen? During the game start loading I expected the left-to-right lights to come alive according to the games loading progress. In my save game I expected the keyboard to light up the appropriate keys.
4.) Consistency? It is a consistent issue.

I can remember that it was working fine around two months ago (based of last save game date I played).
I have tried the most obvious steps to remedy the issue: Restart game, restart computer, reconnect keyboard to PC, restart Logitech G Hub software, tabbing in and out, switching window focus, check for updates for Logitech G Hub, check for hardware firmware updates for the G512 keyboard. - Everything seems up-to-date, no success. Hardware configuration didn't change since last playtime where the keyboard was working as expected.

While the game is open, Logitech G HUB does show that the keyboards lighting is controlled by the Factorio integration. The log attached also shows that the integration was initialized.
I have a Logitech RGB headset, which is working fine - While it only has limit functionality, it does light up appropriately during game loading and gameplay.
I must assume that my keyboard itself is working fine as well, to verify I tested Terraria (game); Properly lights up the keyboards keys during play.

Factorio version: 2.0.76
Steam, stable client, version: 1779486452
Windows 11 version: 25H2 (OS build 26200.8457)
Logitech G HUB version: 2026.3.880543
G512 firmware version: 119.1.14

To my own surprise this is the second bug report I made, first one 2015. 10+ years later and hundreds of hours of gameplay later - Thank you for making such a great game.

This is usually an issue with steam, you can try if the default .zip version works.

I assume you are referring to the non-steam game version?

I tested a couple more games I have in my steam library that support the Logitech integration... They all work except Factorio.
Are there any known issues or workarounds?

There are no known issues/work-arounds. The Logitech logic has not changed since it was added around 2018 (8 years ago). So if it's not working - it's likely an issue on Logitech's end.

Thank you for elaborating.

As it's not really a bug then, this can be gladly closed.
Edit: Saw the post was moved to technical help, that works too, thank you!

Windows Dynamic Lighting is completely disabled in my case. Should it be on or off?

As far as I’m aware it should be off, but I don’t have a keyboard or windows 11 device to test with anymore. I’ve forwarded this to some coworkers to see if they can investigate.

For me, previous version of G-HUB fixed this problem
https://download01.logi.com/web/ftp/pub ... 2023.1.exe
After installation disable auto update in settings.
Tried on Factorio 2.1 version, but I think it will help on 2.0.76 too
Windows Dynamic Lighting must be off

I think, Factorio developers need to investigate this issue with new G-HUB version. Maybe some changes in SDK that need to update in game
