Feedback on cast overlay pls

[arkitect]

I've been working on a new overlay for casts/streams to be used INSTEAD of the scoreboard.

I think I've captured everything you'd expect to see, but I'm tired and if you guys could run your eyeballs past it and tell me if anything's missing or confusing that would be great.






thx

Looks great for casting however I am curious how it scales with team games.

[arkitect]

this is just the 1v1 overlay, different layout for team games which is still on the to-do list

[speed2]

If it doesnt block the window with mouse-over info for units... it's gute I guessssssssssssssssss

its great. does this work or just a mockup?

instead of blue you could use faction colour

[arkitect]

this is working, it's a screenshot from the cast output. I thought about faction color for those bars but i don't know how readable it would be and those colors can be pretty ugly :/

[nine2]

ok. so this is a ui mod?

[nine2]

you could add so much to this.

graph of mass income over time (watch it drop after attack)
mass on the field divided by type (t1 navy, t2 land, acu, exp)
number of capped mexes

it would be a replay viewer ui, not just a caster ui

im surprised you can tilt a map like that.

[arkitect]

It's not a ui mod, I'm generating it outside the game as a layer in the cast. You can't tilt the map, it's using the caster trick of dualscreen and capture the right view and use it as minimap in the output

I do want to record figures over time for graphs but haven't done anything with that yet

[nine2]

how do you get the mass income to render? i guess u screengrab part of the video and shunk it into your own graphic.
