RivalTune App

App Description

RivalTune is a powerful and user-friendly open-source tool designed to help you get the most out of your SteelSeries mouse. With its intuitive interface, it provides a comprehensive solution for customizing your mouse’s performance, from button mappings and DPI settings to vibrant RGB lighting effects.

Unlike other tools that can be complex and intimidating, RivalTune simplifies the process, making it easy for you to create and manage profiles for a wide range of SteelSeries mouse models. The application works by leveraging the open-source rivalcfg library, which provides seamless and reliable communication with your device. This means you can quickly and effortlessly fine-tune your settings to match your specific needs, whether you’re gaming, working, or just browsing.

 

Key Features

 

  • Customizable RGB Lighting: Personalize your mouse’s aesthetics with a full suite of lighting controls. You can toggle RGB lighting on or off, choose from a variety of pre-defined color presets, or get creative by designing your own custom colors. For mice that support it, you can even adjust individual LED zone colors to create unique and dynamic effects. RivalTune also lets you select from a range of animated light effects, such as Rainbow, Breathe, and more, to truly make your mouse your own.

 

  • Precise Performance Tuning: Take control of your mouse’s sensitivity with easy-to-use DPI adjustment features. You can dial in the perfect mouse sensitivity to suit your style and gain a competitive edge. (Note: Currently, only a single profile is supported for DPI adjustments, but future updates may expand this functionality.)

  • Fully Open-Source: RivalTune is a community-driven project that is fully open-source and released under the GPL-v3 license. This means the source code is freely available, allowing for transparency, collaboration, and continuous improvement by a passionate community of developers and users.

 

  • Effortless Profile Management: RivalTune’s straightforward interface allows you to easily manage and switch between different configurations. This makes it simple to save specialized settings for different games or applications, ensuring you always have the right setup at your fingertips.
