Please make a screenshot of what you can see. Also make sure to allow GameDog in your firewall and try starting as administrator as that might help, too.

Razer Chroma is only working on Windows. GameDog is a Windows application. Sorry.

Is it avalable for Razer Blackwidow X Chroma?
Yes. According to Razer the Blackwidow X Chroma is working like the normal Chroma except for the Macro Keys.

Make an extension for CS1.6 and Diablo 3, it would be much appreciated. Or release source code for CSGO and DOTA so others can use it as a helping guide
CS1.6 does not have that kind of API to read out data from the game. I'm not sure about Diablo 3 but I think that's the same problem. Please see here: /request-chroma-support-for-insert-game-mega-thread.11859/

Go to settings and make sure the path to the games is set correctly. It can happen when you move the games. You can also try to click on "Reset" which will cause gamedog to try to autodetect the new location, but it's more easier to just set the pathes: For example: G:\\steam\\SteamApps\\common\\Counter-Strike Global Offensive or G:\\steam\\SteamApps\\common\\dota 2 beta

Hey! So I've been using GameDog for CS:GO since March, and just recently I've encountered a problem. While playing, or when CS:GO is closed, the lighting effects from in-game freeze and stay that way. Closing GameDog or changing the lighting effects in Synapse doesn't help, only a restart does. I've also tried reinstalling both Synapse and GameDog but it's still the same. Oh, and I've had some Chroma SDK issues as well, but it seems to be working fine for now (I know it's the Synapse software team in charge of this).

Which devices are you using? Does only the lighting freeze or does the device stop responding completly? Can you try going to settings and enable "Keep Chroma focus" that means GameDog doesn't give back control to synapse and you need closing gamedog whenever you finished playing for the chroma effects of synapse to work again but it would help to know if the problem is caused by giving back control to synapse. Also when you reinstalled Synapse did you uninstall both the Chroma SDK and synapse before reinstalling?

The only Chroma devices I own right now are the Blackwidow and Kraken 7.1. The lighting is the only thing that freezes with the CS:GO effects, either in-game or when exiting the game. I have never tried the "Chroma Focus" settings, as this hasn't been an issue until recently, but I will look into it when I get the chance to play again. I tried ChromaSync and that did NOT freeze my lighting, BUT I uninstalled it because I couldn't customize the lighting effects (at least not to my knowledge). I've actually had this keyboard since March and GameDog's lighting freezes began recently (maybe a couple of weeks to a month ago), whereas I just noticed the issues with my Chroma SKD this week (which seems to be working now, somehow). And yes, when I reinstalled Synapse I uninstalled both Chroma SDK Core Components and Synapse. Synapse has actually been buggy for me, first noticed it when Battlefront came out as it automatically mutes my game and I have to manually unmute it by going into the registry. And I know it's Synapse because it only happens when it is installed. So maybe it's Synapse? Not sure, but I've been trying to figure this out with Razer Support which is taking a while due to me having to send a "Bug Report Feedback" to the Razer Synapse Software team. If you've got anything that could help that would be awesome. And like I said, I will update you once I get the chance to play with "Keep Chroma Focus" enabled (probably in a few hours). Thank you for taking the time to help out!

Hello! i have a little question.. Sorry for my bad english.. That soft work on Razer Mamba Chroma Wireless? I'm use Kraken 7.1 usb Chroma and that mouse. latest synapse and Gamedog. What can I do with my problem? Help pls. my log:
  • Download latest Version from the Razer Workshop or the GameDog Thread. Complete
  • Install GameDog Complete
  • Open Synapse and make sure Chroma Apps are enabled under the "Chroma Apps -> Settings" Tab Complete
  • Start GameDog Complete
  • Make sure your Chroma Devices play a Green Animation and then return back to your default Profile. Error. I opened the program, and no green effects on the mouse are not present. Kraken have green animation, mouse - no.
  • Make sure under Settings in GameDog the Directory to your Game is set correctly. Complete
  • Minimize GameDog. It will stay open in the Tray Bar.
  • Start your Game and GameDog should receive Data and change the lighting accordingly.
  • After playing GameDog will revert the Keyboard back to your Synapse Profile

Razer Mamba Chroma Wireless
As far as I know the mamba wireless only works when connected via cord not when wireless. That's a limitation from the Razer SDK. Can you try connecting the mouse via cable and try again then?

No sorry. Only Razer might be able to remove the restriction with a firmwareupdate maybe. I however have no idea if that will ever happen.

To update, I tried enabling "Keep Chroma focus." Weirdly enough, it didn't freeze at all this time (I only played 2 competitive games). Is this the only solution there might be or could there possibly be a different solution without using Chroma focus? Thanks!

Thanks for trying. What Version of GameDog are you on at the moment? If you haven't tried 2.4 yet, you could try using this one with "Keep Chroma focus" enabled again: https://gamedog.chromatin.eu/GameDogSetup.2.4.msi

No problem! I was using v 2.1. I uninstalled it, and then installed v 2.4 as you said. I actually disabled "Keep Chroma focus" and it worked just fine throughout one competitive and a few bot games. I'll keep playing when I can and see if it keeps working.
