Fortunately you can change the icon and their color like in the picture below. All the other areas are semitransparent and thus unsuitable for chroma keying. Make any settings changes, then click OK. Name it, then locate the overlay file on your PC. Choose Image Source for static graphics choose Media Source for animated.

I could make screenshots of the window and then only take the pixels that have this specific color. To manually add stream overlays for OBS, locate the Sources dock, then click the + button to create a new source. The Selected Button has a very specific flat and opaque blue tone. I have no clue how I would implement that.

Windows 10 64 bit / Windows 10 / Windows 8 64 bit. But these are just guesses into the wild. Show Xbox controller input on your stream, with this relatively simple application that also comes. I also thought of tricking Steam into thinking a different window with a green background is the one it should render to and then just capturing its contents. I have thought of hooking myself into the drawing message queues Steam is using and capturing what is rendered on the window before and after the overlay is drawn.

I don't know how to actually read what Steam is rendering on it. (See )Īlso my guess is that Steam gets the hWnd of the window, creates an OpenGL context with its DC and renders to it every time it receives a SwapBuffers call that it is listening to.īut that's the end of the story. However I think it's not a bad assumption that it has the same or very similar implementation as the Steam Overlay.Īccording to the Steamworks API Documentation Steam listens for Present/SwapBuffers calls that the application fires and refreshes the overlay accordingly. I know nothing about the technical details of the Steam Controller Overlay. But I don't know how to implement them properly. But I didn't come up with a good way of capturing that overlay that is drawn on top of the game's window. I know how to render an overlay in OpenVR/SteamVR. This is a bug or a missing feature that is known. They only appear on the desktop window that is rendered alongside with it. However when playing a game in SteamVR none of these overlays appear in VR. These menus are very handy for games with many controls. Various people here have produce overlay images for some games and upload them in posts so that people can print out themselves, I did a bunch of replacement designs myself which are available from although it is important to note the Worms Team overlays are replacement for Multi-Tap owners and not for the official Atari Team-Tap which is not supported by Worms for use with multiple controllers.įor overlays for Songbird games you will have to ask Carl I know he was keen to keep control over design and quality, I believe he occasionally produces some by as I say you will have to ask him.When using a Steam Controller you can configure the touchpads to be complex menus that show up on the screen when you start touching them. If by 'complete set' you mean one for every game made then I don't think you will find that as I am sure there are some games that do not have any either official or 3rd party and a few others that do not require them. I didn't know if there was anybody out there doing remakes of them or not? I am looking for the complete set. Where can we find the controller overlays (if possible). Hey guys! I have been looking around that forums and haven't found an answer to my question, so I apologize in advance if this has already been addressed.
