MangoHud helper app GOverlay v1.2 out now with quick layout presets

By - | Views: 20,589

GOverlay can be useful for helping to configure MangoHud, the Linux gaming performance overlay, especially if you prefer a UI to editing text files and version 1.2 is out now adding quick layout presets support. Nice to see another useful open source app keep getting better!

Here's all that's new:

New:

  • Presets (formerly known as quick layouts) are back.
  • Custom user presets can now be saved and restored (requested feature).
  • Added negative offset option for FPS limits, very useful for VRR screens (requested feature).
  • New FPS AVG 1% and 0.1% options.
  • New winesync option.
  • New compact HUD option.
  • New Vulkan Present mode option.
  • Added Fahrenheit temperature unit option (requested feature).
  • Option to disable shortcut combinations (requested feature).
  • Icons for device battery.

Fixes:

  • Fixed missing arguments for device battery.
  • GPU and CPU custom colors are working again.
  • Time toggle was always checked, now fixed.
  • Fixed invalid string used for engine_version.

I've used it quite a few times and it can help quick iteration on getting your MangoHud looking exactly how you want.

See more on the GitHub page.

It's also cool that this got promoted out of the AUR a while ago and is more conveniently in the extra repository.
