In addition to this significant enhancement, Goverlay's latest version addresses various issues related to GNOME, particularly improving text clarity in dark themes, which has been a concern for users. The update also bolsters debugging capabilities, introducing numerous new checkpoints to facilitate smoother operations and troubleshooting for OptiScaler functionalities within Goverlay.
Moreover, for users who operate Steam through Flatpak, the new MangoHud configuration options included in this update are particularly noteworthy. This enhancement is an important step towards Goverlay's anticipated approval on Flathub, potentially enabling users to install the software directly via Flatpak in the near future.
As we approach the end of the year, the developers of Goverlay express hope that this will be the final update for 2023, indicating that a range of updates and fixes have been implemented recently to refine OptiScaler and Flatpak support.
Overall, Goverlay 1.6.7 represents a significant step forward in making gaming overlays more user-friendly and efficient, contributing to a better gaming experience for Linux users
