Goverlay 1.7.1 released

Published by

Goverlay 1.7.1 has been officially released, introducing a series of new features and enhancements for tools like MangoHud and OptiScaler. Notably, the update improves MangoHud's temperature display functionality by adding an option to monitor RAM temperature specifically for DDR5 setups, which can be activated using the 'ram_temp' checkbox. Additionally, there is a new 'fex_stats' option to track FEX-Emu statistics in a cleaner manner, replacing the legacy time# settings with simpler options: 'time' and 'time_no_label'.

OptiScaler also received significant updates, including fixes for GPU vendor spoofing issues and improvements in edge detection for newer builds. The configuration file has been streamlined, ensuring that the 'winmm.dll' is now properly listed in the filename dropdown for easier selection.

The update enhances the user experience by introducing checkbox dependencies within Goverlay; enabling a specific temperature monitor, such as GPU temperature, will automatically manage related settings like average load. A similar interconnected feature applies to CPU temperature settings as well.

In addition to these new features, Goverlay 1.7.1 addresses several bugs, such as cleaning up old configurations from MangoHud and optimizing OptiScaler's installation process to preserve existing fgmod files. The behind-the-scenes work has also seen improvements, with enhanced automation and versioning controls in the build process, which will simplify future maintenance tasks.

This release serves as a minor fix, and the developers have noted the oversight of not crediting the FGMOD creator, @FakeMichau, in the previous update. Users can find the release and additional details on the official repository.

In summary, Goverlay 1.7.1 builds upon its predecessor by refining existing functionalities, addressing user feedback, and enhancing the overall usability of the tool, making it a valuable update for Linux users who rely on these performance monitoring tools
