    Bumping the threads in “I need it, so DO IT NOW” form is a direct reason why many people simply stop contributing to community at all. If you need something that badly, lean how to do it yourself.

    well its been a while so i thought before my request gets forgotten id bump it a bit , no ill intentions meant and definitely not intending to make people stop contributing , much to the opposite actually , and yes i need it that badly , learn it myself? lols , trust, ive nearly got a breakdown doing the simplest stuff with even the osd plugin , i cant do crap , so hence why i gotta rely on people that can and hope they will do me the favor

    Understand how the program works before spamming the forum.

    all i want is the layout to work , not sure what im doing wrong here , just wanna be able to add additional infos under the gpu infolist such as>

    Driverversion , Gpu model , Pcie lane speed.

    and as said the Watercooled GPU icon animated to replace the fanblade version and for it to work proper of course , its not like youve released a youtube video like in the past that explained it very nicely what to do , which helped alot , again as said please notice i am quite a noob in these regards, sorry

    RTSS skin - Rainbow_v5.rar: https://drive.google.com/file/d/15MaZ5dCh8hGSLjxsk5mhIgbSW0t_pzTV/view?usp=sharing

    Added more presets:
    Add new layer > add text table > select a preset from the list.
    - For correct display of vertical graphs, you need to set the color for the layer.
    - Sources for 6+ cores add and edit according to the existing ones
    - Keep track of the amount of hypertext.

    [​IMG]

    Added 200% resolution:
    [​IMG]

    Added global color change:
    Two layers for one color.

    For change aircool GPU icon to watercool, need change embedded image.

    nice ...V. 5, now only request and more of me begging you on this one is , please make another youtube tutorial video on how to make according changes ive requested , since , need change embedded image isnt doing anything for me , please understand a regular user such as myself has no idea about the intricacies of the osd plugins workings such as you do , i can barely wrap my head around it all, thanks for understanding and sorry for being a pain in the ass as usual

    heres a screenshot with 200%>

    https://www112.zippyshare.com/v/QFokw8T0/file.html


    as said as well need to readd following infos back in>
    pcielane speed for gpu
    driver version for gpu
    gpu model

    and additionally if possible>
    display resolution currently used

    and the transparency inside the icons having grey colored diagonal lines that are very visible on bright backgrounds , make them actual transparent please , would fix said issue

    p.s concerning the youtube tutorial video , mind you i recon this would help other new users to pick up your skin easier and thus more widespread use not just the enthusiasts , which is a win win in my eyes since it deserves alot more recognition

    Is it possible to set different OSD skins for different games? Eg. Skin 1 for game A and skin 2 for game B. For example by setting different profiles in RTSS or something like that.

    You can switch skin layouts using hotkeys "HotkeHandler.dll"

    What I want to do with different profiles is to partly allow myself to display the OSD on a second monitor but at the moment there is no such an option.
    My idea is as follows:
    a) Run the game on the monitor in landscape mode + profile 1 displaying only frametime graph and FPS to get a clear view of the game,
    b) Run some 3D application on the vertical monitor e.g. iCUE as a platform for OSD + profile 2 cpu, gpu temp etc.
    [​IMG]
    It would be best to display all statistics on a vertical monitor but I found out that frametime is directly linked to the game window and cannot be separated.
    The original topic with support for multiple monitors for the OSD: https://forums.guru3d.com/threads/multi-monitor-support-for-osd.432963/

    Framerate and frametime are not system global things. Framerate and frametime are specific to each 3D application running in the system. You may have multiple 3D application running at the same time and each of them will display its own framerate counter and frametime history graph in OSD. So that's by design.
    But i can add a profile setting, allowing aany 3D application to display framerate and frametime of some other (e.g. foreground) 3D process. So this will cover your specific needs, you'll create a profile for your iCUE "platform" application and put that switch there, so it will start displaying foreground 3D process framerates and frametimes instead of its own ones. Also I think I'll add new open source tool to RTSS SDK - simple blank brderless 3D window with adjustable background color, alpha and chroma keying support. So it will be more convenient to use it as a platform or host application for desktop OSD.

    Just want to chime in that I would find this functionality if added very useful!
