GitHub - flozz/rivalcfg: CLI tool and Python library to configure SteelSeries gaming mice

Rivalcfg is a Python library and a CLI utility program that allows you to configure SteelSeries gaming mice on Linux, macOS and Windows (probably works on BSD too, but not tested).

I first created this program to configure my Rival 100 and the original Rival mice, then I added support for other Rival devices thanks to contributors. Today this project aims to support any SteelSeries gaming mice (Rival, Sensei, Aerox, Prime,...).

IMPORTANT: This is an unofficial software. It was made by reverse engineering devices and is not supported nor approved by SteelSeries.

If you have any trouble running this software, please open an issue on GitHub:
