New version on github
Any issues with new version should be posted on github
This version is deprecated and will not be updated, left for archival purposes.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
How it looks.
Make sure you are not running this program and the official one. They will both stop to work.
To install you run "RiingPlus.Service.exe", it will ask you for administrator rights (needed for temperature reading), and then follow the prompts. If installing as custom user enter username as ".\<username>" and your windows password. To uninstall run it again.
Then you run "RiingPlus.Gui.exe" to control the service. If you see a "waiting for service" dialog, the service probably failed to start. You can check why in windows event log.
By default your current settings will be left untouched, you have to create a new profile, select fans that will be in that profile and click save. Each fan can only be in one profile of each type. The types are:
Normal
Boot - when saved will apply fan speed/rgb settings at pc boot, after saving will revert to Normal profile for each fan if present
Shutdown - will be applied when service/pc is shutting down
There are no error prompts and the app will just revert to correct/previous settings when saving if something is configured incorrectly.
By default the temperature update is every 250ms, and fan speed update is every 2500ms. This can be changed in "config.json", not available in gui yet.
Ofc I give you no warranty that it will work, or that your pc wont catch on fire. You can read posts from people that have it working. If something wont work, ill try to update but dont expect 24/7 support.
How to update (service):
Stop "Riing Plus Controller" service via "services.msc" or "net stop"
Drop new version on top of the old one replacing all files
Start the service
How to update (GUI):
Stop gui if running
Drop new version on top of the old one replacing all files
Changelog:
v1.7:
Removed empty port detection as it causes too many issues
v1.6:
Fix race condition when trying to set the fan to 0% speed in PWM mode
Fix fan list sorting
v1.5:
Add support for mixing many temperature sensors (min/max/avg)
This change means you will need to set temperature sensors again for each profile and re-save them. Or you could, while the service is off, edit each line in config.json like this:
"TemperatureSensorIdentifier": "<sensor>"
to:
"TemperatureSensorIdentifiers": ["<sensor>"]
Correctly handle pc sleep/hibernate events
Fix hanging tasks when service is shutting down
Hide disabled config controls
v1.4:
Fix critical temperature not working
Fix detection of empty ports
v1.3:
Allow installation as LocalService
v1.2:
Fix detection of unused ports
Add "Off" speed mode
v1.1:
Add ability to set temperature sensor per profile
Update openhardwarelib (support for newer intel/amd processors)
Fix controller sorting
Ignore critical temperature on manual speed mode
