Anyone have a guide on the keyboard software. I am having trouble getting this thing to work. I was able to get it working on the duck eagle a couple months ago but now I can't get it to work.

One thing I forgot that may help, when I was having trouble getting the hex files to save. If you make a txt file first with the same name then it allows you save the hex file over it. I don't know if everybody was experiencing this problem but it occurred for me.
In the octagon thread, there is a workaround with using microsoft app locale. Doesnt work with Windows 10 tho.
DONE! Man this took me forever to finish. I was doing everything in fine detail. I am having an issue with my print screen button going off hundreds of times in seconds any ideas? The LED's were going to be temporary because I didn't have enough of cyan but I really love how the colors mix. Also the TA set looked ugly at first but now it is love at first sight on the orion Show Image
Mine finally surfaced at the customs today (9 days later).Just to make sure - it was posted from an individual, right? Not a business?Asking because individual == i can use the paypal/bank statement as proof of purchase; whereas for a business PoP == invoice.

well after a couple hours of using lubed gateron blacks I regret them. I think I just prefer tactile switches.I think I over lubed my switches which made them feel buttery. Anyways I am going to desolder and replace them with 65g zealios

Anyways I am going to desolder and replace them with 65g zealios Nothing is worse than soldering up a whole board and then not liking the switches. I can definitely vouch for the 65g Tactile Zealios though, I have those in my Orion and love them, I do however have a plastic plate but that muffles the sound and gives a little more tactility. Best of luck and take your time, don't want to ruin a good PCB.

I had to de-solder both Pok3rs since the LED holes came pre-filled, and then after finishing soldering up one board I saw that Vortex posted that you need to put the LEDs in the opposite polarity of what the PCB says...

The only issue I am having is getting the solder out of the tiny led holes. The solder becomes solid way too quick.

The blue alps in this baby have me quite the trouble had to repair a good 15 of them. Much headache. Actually ripped a trace by accident. And soldered 84 smd diodes. Worked a lot today but I am happy it all turned out ok. Definitely never doing alps again. **** em. Cherry all the way
will there be the V3 next?

Cherry all the wayThat board is pure excellence great work, i wish i was paying attention when this GB was open and joined. What was wrong with the blue alps that required them to be repaired?
If anyone has a black or blue top case extra, that they'd be willing to part with, let me know.Wouldn't mind having another color option stashed.Yeah, yeah, i know, should've thought of that when i was ordering...Hindsight 20/20.
I'm pretty sure the only way to get the top case is by having the buy the kit itself, the bottoms is what were the options.
Am i the only person annoyed by the PWM flicker of the backlight LEDs (keyswitch LEDs, not the back-*side* LEDs)?Haven't noticed it mentioned by anyone. It's pretty nasty, i'd say 60 Hz or so?
