MSI AB / RTSS development news thread

Dear 1-post new users, I repear once again that beta thread is not intended for anything but testing NEW functionality. Please learn to use search.

 

Dear forum visitors,

I'm glad to inform you that new beta is available for testing. I decided to rebrand version 4.4.3 and rename it to 4.5.0 because it is getting more and more serious feature upgrades, deserving more serious major version change. So meet v4.5.0 beta 5:

Changes list includes the following:

· Added power user oriented restore points system. Experienced users may use new /backup and /restore command line switches to create multiple named restore points containing full backups of MSI Afterburner's settings (including hardware profiles and custom hardware monitoring plugin configurations) and restore settings from any previously created restore point if necessary
· Original RivaTuner's monitoring history fragment selection and selected fragment processing functionality is back! Now you may hold <Shift> and press left mouse button on initial desired position in hardware monitoring window to begin fragment selection, then drag mouse cursor to desired final position and release left mouse button to select a fragment. The following functionality is available for selected fragments:
· When the fragment is selected, minimum and maximum displayed values are estimated within selected fragment only. This feature can be used if you don't need the global minimum and maximum values, estimated during whole monitoring session, and wish to see local minimum and maximum values estimated within some shorter period of time (e.g. during benchmark application runtime only)
· When the fragment is selected you may use the context menu of any graph to set tracking marker into the local minimum or maximum position within the selection. This feature can be used to automate the process of identifying and visualizing the moments of reaching peak values (e.g. peak GPU temperature) on desired fragments
· Added new open source GPU plugin. The plugin shows third party developers how to extend MSI Afterburner's GPU monitoring functionality and implement own GPU specific sensors in plugins using GPU enumeration and identification API. The plugin is demonstrating implementation of D3DKMT GPU performance counters providing unified vendor agnostic per-engine GPU usage, dedicated and shared memory usage monitoring
· RTSS has been upgraded to slightly newer build, which fixes the problem with screen capture feature in On-Screen Display preview window when RivaTuner Statistics Server is installed in UAC-protected folder

 

If you could read the thread, it would be nice as well. CPU plugins is open source, which means that you can add anything you wish to see implemented there yourself, without asking me to add support for CPU XXX or GPU YYY.

 

The same answer just one post above.

 

I've uploaded video with small preview of upcoming MSI Afterburner 4.5.0 functionality:



This video is demonstrating:

- Fast OSD setup from scratch with keyboard shortcuts and multi-selection functionality. It is not actually new for 4.5.0 and it was available in the previous version, but too few users actually read the context help and use this functionality. And multi-selection functionality can actually speed up the process of configuring OSD.
- Process specific memory monitoring with PerfCounter plugin
- Monitoring history selection and local min/max values detection
- Monitoring performance profiler usage, helping you to identify and disable most performance hungry sensors

 

Plain wrong, maximum number of CPU threads is not anyway "recognized" by monitoring software, it is reported by OS. Configure your OS properly and please avoid posing offtopic in this thread, it is not intended for anything but testing new beta functionality.

 

@LocoDiceGR, little double-faced girlie, I thought that you changed
