Since i picked up a G13 I was looking for a way to get it to display info from Elite and my applet search led me to this post on Elite Dangerous Codex.

Its a companion app for your keyboard that has a few features. Depending on which keyboard you own, you can get the following features:

  • Status: System information when you arrive in system. Includes Allegiance, Power Play status, Population, Economy and Government.
  • Space Traffic Control: Make it sound like you are hearing radio calls from stations and ships (configured to only happen in SC with Volume and density of traffic).
  • Galnet Ticker: Galnet News on a Ticker Tape
  • Reddit Elite Dangerous Ticker: Latest posts from the Elite Dangerous Reddit.
  • Radio Controller: Preconfigured for a few ED specific stations, but customizable.
  • Play Spotify Premium: If Spotify is your Jam, you can use this to control it. Includes a few Space Based playlists.
  • Elite TV: A few Elite Dangerous based Youtube Channels.
It works on the G13/15/19 keyboards, but I had an issue with the program and had to go back to an older version first before I was able to use it. If you have a G13 I will post instructions here to fix the issue if it happens to you.

Also, if you DON'T have a G series Keyboard, you can still use this app. it will give you a little window with most of the features to enhance the game for you.

See his original post on Reddit Here.

Requirement is .NET Framework 4.6.1

Here is the info for the issue I encountered:

I've used the app for a few weeks now. The developer is very responsive to requests and/or issues. I asked for local time to be added as an option and it was there in the next version. One of the best apps for these Logitech g series keyboards.

Yeah, he was helping me with the issue I had. I even asked him about a few changes as well.

It's one of the few apps I have found that is truly useful. If you know of any other apps that will run on the Monochrome G13, let me know.
