Important! If you are using tools for the first time, please read Beginner's guide and AlienFX-GUI readme to configure out its concept and operation principle.

Fan-SDK_V1.zip have binaries built against older fan control version, use it only in case you know what you're doing (or have Aurora R7), check readme file inside archive first to configure out how to make it working!

Changes into this release:

All light-control tools:

  • New: APIv9 (new monitors) ALPHA support. Device will be detected, but lights color will not be changed for now. Working on it.

AlienFan-GUI, AlienFX-GUI:

  • Tooltip changed to provide shorter string (f.e. now effects use code "mahg" - Monitoring, Ambient, Haptics, Grids. Capital letter means effect active, non-capital - not active).
  • Mappings for Alienware 17R3 (old series from 2017) added into autodetection database.
  • Bug fixed: Application crashed as mouse points to tray icon if tooltip very long (f.e. long profile name or a lot of fans). Now it will be truncated to maximal possible tooltip length instead.
