Does Anyone Else Use Lighting Effects?

Just wondering if its an issue with my PC or if it is happening to other players as well, but my keyboard and mouse won't use the Apex lighting effects, (and when I restart the game, the setting would automatically turn itself off).

I know my keyboard and mouse are compatible with the lighting effects as The Sims 4 and Fortnite will take control of my keyboard and mouse's lighting and I had the lighting effects working for Apex before in the past.

For those who don't know, the lighting effects changes the color of the keyboard and mouse based off of the environment and other game events.

For example:

  • When selecting a legend, the lighting will match a color theme for that legend, (a purple color for Wraith, greenish-yellow for Octane, etc.)
  • When healing, the lighting will go red and then light up green from left to right, taking over the red, (which it does this with reviving as well)
  • When moving to a different part of the map, the lighting will change to match the area
  • When getting knocked, the lighting would flash, go out, and then be red

While not really important or needed to play the game, the lighting effect is just something I enjoy.

Its also possible that its an issue with Razer Synapse, (although I've already tried repairing/reinstalling Razer Synapse).

    GuiltyGrey​ I've already reported it to EA, but I haven't contacted Razer yet since it still works for Fortnite and The Sims 4.

    However, before I contact Razer, I'll try doing a full reinstall of Razer Synapse and its drivers.

    Have you contacted support of either side (EA / Razer)? I tested with other chroma compatible games and noticed that some older games also don't work. So I'm guessing that something (perhaps an update?) is causing the games to no longer be recognized by the chroma connect app...🤔 So maybe it's something only the devs can fix...?

    Have been having the same issue, symptom is exactly the same. Can't remember since when it has stopped working, just started looking into this issue. Have you found a solution?
