How to enable custom hotkeys and limits not provided by GOverlay?

quidamphx opened this issue · 5 comments

How can I enable a custom frame limit such as 120/90/60, to be cycled with the assigned hotkey? If cycling between 3 values isnt possible, something like 90/60?

Also, the frame limiter only allows me to set F1-F4 as the hotkey, and adding something like Shift_R+F1 to the config file has no effect. F1-F4 are too easily triggered by game commands with many games and adding a modifier key to it would be ideal.

@quidamphx what version are you using ? in the latest 1.0 release toggle keys are Shift_L+F1 ... Shift_L+F4. Also you can just click the FPS that you want and the togglekey will cycle betwen than.

0.9, from the Fedora repo. I'll look into installing 1.0 when it's available; I had no idea there was a newer version. Thank you, this is helpful! At least I know the features are coming, I'll wait until I can update it as sudo dnf install goverlay doesn't have any updates yet.

No problem, application distribution is an old Linux problem. Check if 1.0 works for you

It seems to be working well since trying v1.0.

I probably didn't take the elegant or correct route, but I just downloaded and replaced the goverlay file in /usr/libexec and it launches version 1.0 from my existing shortcuts. I tried cloning the git and building and it kept coming back with an error.

Shift_R+F12 still works to open the overlay, and Shift_L+F1 does effectively toggle through the framerate options I enabled; 60, 90, 120. This is the eaxct thing I wanted and it turned out it was already there.

Thank you very much.

i'm glad it worked for you ! I'm planing a new release soon. Hope you like it !
