OK, I'm back after being gone for some hours.
I see the forum has been pretty active, most of what I have seen has been help requests, and questions about how to "do" something. Please read the "config" wiki page on the Code Page, link is in my sig. Most of your questions about the config file can be answered by reading that page. I realize it is not updated with latest changes, when I get time from work I will do such.
NOTE: This hack runs in windowed mode, and requires Window Vista / 7 to run. Please do not ask about porting to XP or using in non windowed mode. Unless you have some programming black magic, this is just not possible without writing some serious low level code (Which Python is not). Also if your game lags, it is because either:
- You did not just restart your computer.
- You have too many damn startup programs etc. (I'm sure most of your computers run like shit, because you install every damn taskbar tool there is.)
- Your graphics card is simply not good enough (read your computer is not good enough)
I have a quadcore Q8200, 8GB RAM, 2TB RAID SATA 3G, HD5770 on a Dell mobo. My computer runs fine in windowed at 1600x900 resolution.
The only program that starts when my computer does other than windows default is steam. My computer runs just fine. If you have XP (although a great OS) upgrade to Win7, it runs great. Looks great, and has new features.
I'm not trying to boast or be a smart ass, I see a lot of people that complain about the hacks performance, and all it does is beget more complaints. This is my attempt to stop that, and keep this thread on topic of feature request, bug reports, that are valid, and of course thanks are nice too.
To those of you who have provided valid bugs, thank you, those of you with valid questions, thank you. If your computer is slow, run tools like Ccleaner, Tuneup Utilities, defraggler etc.
No the code for that is complicated, sph4ck decided when he rewrote this that the code is to maintain simplicity in order to help keep bugs out and to provide an easy base for someone new to coding.
READ THIS EDIT:
On another thought, you said to the top of the window. I assumed on top of the titlebar is what you meant. In the latest version of the hack, I have F1 Set to toggle on / off visibility of the hack status bar, and F2 set to toggle status bar location from bottom left to top left. Give that a try, maybe it's more like what you want.
