Hi,

I'm now ready for some more betatesting / first beta release. I would love for everyone using it to post in the thread with comments, feedback, bug reports and/or feature requests. Please do note that I'm doing this alone, so it might take some time to implement/fix a feature request/bug.

Current version: v0.3.0

Changes and downloads for v0.3.0 can be found HERE.
(includes lots of improvements, and a few bugfixes/new features).



ALOT of new features in 0.2.0, changelog can be seen here:
Download and changelog

Features (v0.1.0):
1v1 & 2v2 supported
Names of players
Coloring of player names or Squares next to name (thanks for the idea Jarvs)
Race images as workers or race icons
Player location markers
Scoreboard
Auto complete of player names (remebers all input)
Editing the player list
moving/locking or resetting position (default is center of main monitor, in the top (1 pixel down, so you can still scroll up in SC2)
Hotkeys for almost everything (see further down)
Saving of preferences (race images, 1v1/2v2 mode, color name/square, player names, hotkey mode)

Hotkeys:
Player names: F1-F2 (F1-F4 for 2v2 mode)
Score: F5-F6
Player colors: 1-8 (uses modifiers)
Player race: P,T,Z (uses modifiers)
Player location mode1: numpad2,4,6,8 (north, south, east, west) (uses modifiers)
Player location mode2: numpad1-9, /(10) *(11) -(12) (watch keyboard, makes sense ) (uses modifiers) *NOTE1
Moving: ctrl+M (enable/disable)

Known Issues:
Location hotkeys for player 3 & 4 doesnt work
Small graphical glitches around edges of form

The application can be downloaded at http://streamermatch.codeplex.com - under downloads

Feature request / bug list

Troubleshooting:
If you use xsplit and the application is invisble, open the xsplit window and go to tools->settings, in the general tab and unckeck "Disable capture of layered windows" - that will make it show.

The guys at gosugamers felt like I had stolen their idea, but I want to point out that this is not the case. I saw a need for the community, and I stepped up and did something about it. I've been in touch with the gosugamer crew, and they did indeed release their casting tool because of this thread, which is fine with me - it simply gives the community more options. (the gosugamers castingtool can be found here). The gosugamers guys I talked to seemed like very nice people, and I've told them to contact me if they have any questions or anything else.

Good luck!

Hi,

Im making an overlay for streamers, to show whos playing and what the score is. Its pretty simple, got hotkeys for everything so its not too time consuming, and pretty lightweight.

I'm gonna release this to all of you lovely guys once I've worked out the last few nagging things, but I thought I'd show it here and maybe get some feedback

As you can see on the screenshot, everything has hotkeys, which seems pretty intuitive once you tried it a few times.

The reason behind making it is that some people have one, but wont share it - and that just seems wrong to me, so I made one for everyone to use (if they feel like it).

So, any comments/ideas - please shoot!

..And I know its my first post, but I've been a lurker since the early beta stage - and its about time to contribute

It can be seen in action on the aka_star / FlashDave stream

Regards,
Nodash

EDIT: fixed image links.
EDIT 2: Links to images.
EDIT 3: Added link to stream where its tested/used.

Images are all fixed, and added another spoiler tag with links to the images as well, as they're too big (wide) for the thread.

another great freeware for the sc community. I know that some streamers already have this sort of utility for their streams, but not sure if they've been sharing where they got it from... great work =]

Oh man, very nice. Thanks a ton. I know I've been looking for something like this for awhile.

Is there any way to sign up for email notifications as you progress? I definitely wanna know as soon as it's done.

Any chance you can also make a replay overlay? It'd be great to unify all the overlays into yours.

Hi,

Thanks alot for all the positive feedback, its awesome!
The idea down the line is that it will be a StreamerUtil pack, which includes the following apps (and more, if you have ideas):
StreamerMatch - this app (can someone suggest a better name?
StreamerKOTH - King of the hill overlay, keep track of peoples wins, losses etc.
StreamerOverlay - replay overlay, overlay for whatever pics
StreamerTicker - scrolling text or links to brackets, message of the day, whatever you want )
StreamerSkype - manage skype calls/conferences, see whos in a conference etc (this is almost done, but its a bit complicated hooking in to skype and catch everything thats going on there)

In the end I guess it will all be merged in to a big ball of love for the community

Edit: Changed the name of this app.

I think the idea is brilliant and can only thank you for being generous enough to provide it to the community.

Once you get everything set and release it pls make sure to link it here and i'll gladly make some mentions to the tool and his creator on future shoutcasts i might do.

Once again, thank you and best of look for the future.
