    Beta 18 is available.

    http://office.guru3d.com/afterburner/RTSSSetup700Beta18.rar

    - Now power users may customize text shadow (outline) appearance in raster 3D mode. There are two new variables controlling outline rendering (both can be found in .\ProfileTemplates\Global in [Font] section): outline pass count (defines outline width) and outline blending factor (defines outline opacity).

    Minor bug in UWP in the latest AB 4.4.0 b6 / RTSS 7.0.0 b18: if you press the screenshot hotkey in Gears4 benchmark the "CPU (render)" times are suddenly up ~4-5 times even though this key is supposedly not doing anything in UWP (yet).

    Starting the benchmark:

    After pressing the AB's screenshot hotkey:

    No idea if the same is happening in other UWP games, didn't check.

    It is expected because screen/videocapture are not (and probably will not be) implemented for UWP. It is strongly not recommended to ignore that and press neither screenshot nor videocapture hotkeys in UWP applications, it will result in endless screen capture attempt loop eating CPU time.

    Why not disable the hotkeys in UWP apps then?

    It's a shame about the capture though as it doesn't seem too hard to implement, considering that a straight active window capture works fine for UWP.

    Why would he get eaten alive? All that needs to happen is for EasyAntiCheat to update their whitelist, which according to their website only supports up to RTSS (Afterburner) 6.5.1. 6.5.1 is the current PUBLIC version. I'd expect them to whitelist 7.0.0 as soon as it's publicly available. No need to get in a huff about it. The only reason Unwinder gets upset is a zillion people come and post the same crap over and over without researching it first.

    Each beta contains the changes of the previous version. :)
    (Unless otherwise stated.)

    You only need the latest version.
    (Afterburner 4.4.0b6 if you're updating that too or just RivaTuner Statistics Server 7.0.0b18)

    Good morning, why are you so egoistic? Yes, you are lazy. If you try to read at least a couple of previous pages of this thread instead of posting here blindly, you can read answers about EAC and whitelisting. A few of them per page.

    To try and explain the issue with EAC a bit Unwinder made a change to Rivatuner 7.0.0 as of it's beta 16 release (If I remember correctly.) so it now uses a digital file signature making whitelisting easier both for EAC and for say Battle.eye and probably other software too. :)
    (I didn't check but I'm guessing the non-beta releases of RTSS were signed already, probably helps with other software as well such as AV's.)

    However EAC or Easy Anti Cheat to use it's full name will need to be updated first for these whitelist changes and since it stores some files per game and Ghost Recon Wildlands still has not been updated the game is currently not compatible with RTSS 7.0.0 until this is resolved and the EAC component gets this new whitelist info which should happen whenever the next patch comes out.

    For Honor was updated a few days ago and might be compatible now but it could still take a while until the next patch for Wildlands is released since they released a bigger update a short while ago.
    (I don't have any info on their current plans with the game, probably on the Ubisoft forums if they've announced anything though a smaller hotfix could also happen in-between bigger updates and that could also include the EAC files that are needed.)

    EDIT: I'm just making this more complicated trying to do some more complex explanation of it, put shortly for this to work it also needs the game in question or rather the anti-cheat software said game is using to be updated which hasn't happened yet for Wildlands.
    (But 6.6.0 should work in the meantime.)


    EDIT: That should do it, bit more legible now.

    Now with this signature in place well once the software is updated meaning the games in question are patched and have these new whitelist files in them that should hopefully put this entire thing to rest and it won't be a issue any longer. :)

    And you clearly do not read or do not understand what JonasBeckman explained. Please stop. This thread contains more than enough info on EAC.

    RTSS 7.0.0 beta 19 is online:

    No serious changes inside, just a few more text outline rendering customization features for power users. I've added new OutlineMask field, allowing you to customize raster 3D text outline/shadow appearance. New field is a bitmask, allowing enabling/disabling outline for left/right/top/bottom independently. Full outline is enabled by default (mask 0x0000000F), but you can customize it if necessary (e.g. set mask to 0x00000006 to render outline at right/bottom only).
    Most likely we'll publicly launch beta 19 on the main Guru3D page and make it visible to update system tomorrow to provide Windows 10 Creators Update compatible build to everyone right before Creators Update launch officially.

    Latest beta works perfectly, just one thing if I may... I can't figure out how to disable RTSS for a new Paint 3D app. Any hint ?
