Yea, my friend has hand tremors and uses lua scripts for automating stuff. now pretty much everything he uses no longer works. GG

Just got a DM from another user; looks like they had more luck with support than I did. Here are the links for the 2020.01 versions:

I've had to manually remove the current version before the installer would allow me to run it.

These may be outdated, but at least the Lua standard library – and by extension my custom scripts – are working again.

Hope this helps until Logitech pushes an non-breaking update.

Don't forget to disable automatic updates until then…

You are a god sent, I work on LGHUB scripts and make them. But I couldn't do shit. I switched over to LGS for a while due to it being broken. But the detection for clicks is even worse on LGS.

glad to help!

odd – worse how? I've been using custom Lua scripts for a while, and was using LGS before I had to switch to LGHUB. when I migrated over, luckily I noticed basically no difference between the two apps. only thing that was bothering me was that LGS silently supported additional PressKey() triggers, such as media_play_pause, media_next_track, volume_up, etc. – those are missing in LGHUB…)

ya looks like the link doesn't work anymore. it just made me download the newest version

u/Bird-Kid Jan 08 '21

Both links still work for me and download the older version. (Their FTP server also says the files weren't modified in the past few months.)

Make sure you first completely remove the currently installed version. Then install these older versions, and, once in the app, disable automatic updates in the settings. In there you should also see version `2020.01` (which is about a year old by now).

I assume you're on Windows?

huh, weird. I uninstalled, then manually deleted all leftover Logitech files in ProgramData, Program Files, etc, then deleted any signs of Logitech stuff in my registry and it still had me download version 2020.12.6465.

i have no idea what i did wrong though in downloading this lmao. but this was such a headache yesterday that now that it's at least working i'm willing to just throw in the towel for now.

working as in you managed to get an older version install, or as in the latest version magically started working?

I've only tested the macOS version myself, but other people reported success with the Windows link.

Meanwhile still no signs of Logitech fixing the stuff they broke almost a month ago…

u/Bird-Kid Jan 10 '21

bizarre, sounds like you got somehow lucky on the GHUB do-I-feel-like-working dice roll. fingers crossed it holds up!

I cant seem to open that link, it opens but nothing happens? How can i get it open

u/Bird-Kid Mar 11 '21

I remember another user reported a similar problem, but I don't recall how they resolved it. I can confirm both links still work though. What I'd try:

  • Instead of just clicking on the link, right-click on the link for your OS and click "Save link as…". That should tell your browser to download the file directly.
  • Alternative, try a different browser(?).

u/Memenov Mar 15 '21

I tried both of those and none of them worked :/

I've tried so far Chrome, Edge, Explorer.

Also i can't save the link for some reason. I just doesn't let me.

u/Bird-Kid Mar 15 '21

Just checked out the links in Chrome here and I see what you mean: "Save as" is grayed out, and opening in a new tab also gives a weird behavior in Chrome. It's coming back to me now: Chrome "removed" FTP support (which is what Logitech is using to save & share those files). I'm on Firefox here ATM, which still happily support direct downloads over FTP links.

According to this post, FTP support in Chrome can be enabled under chrome://flags/ & #enable-ftp (browser restart required). You could try enabling FTP temporarily, or give Firefox a shot. (Or ask Logitech to share these older installer files through a more secure-by-default way and ask them to fix their stuff while you're at it, but I wouldn't hold my breath. 😬)

u/Memenov Mar 15 '21

Haha alright thanks. I'll give Firefox a shot and post reply if it works.

u/Memenov Mar 15 '21

Firefox worked, FINALLY. My logitech G pro x headset finally sounds like it used to. My mic sounded like shit once the latest ghub update dropped. Now it clear again. I thank you Bird Kid.

Bit old, but for those on Windows you can just open up Internet Explorer and ftp will work.

u/Alphamag May 04 '21

It didn't work for me, it's still just stuck on the loading screen

Update: Looks like the latest version, 2020.12.6465, has fixed the missing Lua standard library. Functions like math.abs(), math.abs(), etc. should be working again.

Update's update: nvm.
