I'm curious: Will this get detected by PunkBuster? Projects like TINT (the successor of TSO) have been doing Overlay for ages, but always have problems with Punkbuster (many game cheats apparently use overlay functionality)

Programs liike Fraps and Steam's overlay get around it by buying into "punkbuster compatible" for a prohibitively high monthly fee.

If you've finally found a way to overlay without running afoul of PB, then great! If not, unfortunately it's not really of any use for anything online + PB protected ATM, at least not any more so than other OSD/Overlay appas.

sweet stuff here

AsRock · Mar 21, 2011

With Arma 2 Arrowhead it just shows up as white boxes ( using 11.4 drivers).

Mussels · Mar 21, 2011

afterburner + TPU OSD = crash on alt tab in SCII.

inferKNOX · Mar 21, 2011

No display for initial build with Civilizations V DX11 in Win7 x64 w/ CCC 11.2, will test latest build.
Suggestion list:
- Separate global options as well as Per-application options for:
- positioning/activating/deactivating overlays
- Forced Vsync and triple buffering options
- Optional font settings for overlays
EDIT
- option to specify polling freq in ms (milliseconds)

Works in the ff:
Two Worlds II
Wings of Prey
King's Bounty - Crossworlds
Mafia II
NBA 2K11
FIFA 11

inferKNOX · Mar 22, 2011

Version 0.0.5 works in:
Civ V,
Black Ops,
* Batman AA,
* CnC4: Tiberian Twilight,
* Medal of Honor,
GRID,
** CoD4: Modern Warfare,

Note:
* upon exiting the game back to Windows, error message would be displayed in Windows, saying that the game has "stopped working".
** when resolution is changed on menu screen, the sizing of everything becomes distorted because resolution changes, but menu size remains the same (issue was reproduced 3 times, but haven't tested to see if issue remains when OSD is off).
*** if game is started first, then one Alt-Tabs to desktop and OSD is started, it will not display in-game until game is restarted.
**** didn't see OSD display in any game unless OSD was started as with Admin Privileges (as stated in 0.0.2 changelog).

Need for speed Most Wanted crashes.
Google earth also crashes.
Warrock also crashes.
In Chess Titans the OSD doesn't appear.
In Counter Strike 1.6 the OSD doesn't appear.
In Empire Earth I the OSD doesn't appear.

inferKNOX · Mar 25, 2011

Version 0.0.5 works in:
R.U.S.E.
Split Second
Zombie Driver
*Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit
*Medal of Honor (Single Player)
*Mass Effect 2
*Prince of Persia: The forgotten Sands
**Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
*** CnC 3 & CnC 3: Kane's Wrath

Note:
* upon exiting the game back to Windows, error message would be displayed in Windows, saying that the game has "stopped working".
** when resolution is changed on menu screen, the sizing of everything becomes distorted because resolution changes, but menu size remains the same (issue was reproduced and confirmed to be caused by the OSD in CoD4:MW and CoD:MW2).
*** upon exiting the game, there is a significant delay before the game exits and the desktop is displayed.

Version 0.0.5 has issues in:
Bioshock 2

flashes momentarily when game is started, but does not show afterward.
causes game to hang on exiting game.

Medal of Honor (Multiplayer)

upon launching game, the game crashes.

EDIT:
Version 0.0.5 works in:
Crysis 2
Dead Space 2 - but causes game to hang on exiting game.

tried in BC2 and DA2 but nothing shows

VulkanBros · Mar 28, 2011

Could be nice to have a chance to load/unload the OSD via key-combo when ingame fullscreen....
Else it looks and works great (TF2, CS:S, FallOut 3, Metro 2033)

found the problem, will be fixed in next build

W1zzard · Mar 28, 2011

any thoughts on the font size? too big ?

user defined font size will be difficult because the font is a precreated texture map which doesnt scale very well

bbmarley · Mar 28, 2011

font size is nice and cleanly visible

why not have a preset size or two for the font? small/medium/large?

Wrigleyvillain · Mar 29, 2011

Ack forgot about this; read about at work. Trying tonight!

Still don't work in Arma 2

Still don't work correctly in Arma 2 OA just see white boxes.

Deleted member 3 · Apr 8, 2011

Would it be possible to turn this into a virtual LCD? Use smartie for instance to send data to it then.

Of course I understand that getting it to work is a priority, but it would be handy if it could be fed with data from whatever source.
