Special K - v 0.7.66 [GUI] - (4/27/17)

0.7.5: Fixes Command Console in Skyrim Special Edition and Introduces UI Init Delay

Skyrim Special Edition creates a Raw Input keyboard device with flags set to block legacy Win32 API input processing, I have opted to remove that flag so that I can handle keyboard input the normal way. This should not cause any negative effects aside from Alt + F4 no longer being blocked by the game.
Added an init delay (1 frame) to CEGUI in order to prevent creating resources on fake render contexts (i.e. ones created by the Steam overlay)

0.7.4: Removed RTSS Support Forever

OSD is now rendered using CEGUI, which means the CEGUI subdirectory is necessary to see the OSD for any localized Special K install (e.g. dxgi.dll, d3d9.dll, OpenGL32.dll in game's directory)
OSD settings are now global, and stored in %USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Mods\SpecialK\Global\osd.ini
OSD font scaling is now a floating-point (x.y) number, and represents (100% x Scale)
OSD position (x/y) is specified in pixels from the top-left corner (positive values), or from the bottom-right (negative values)
OSD color takes an RGB triplet: (-1,-1,-1) = Yellow (Special Case)
Moved the GPU temperature preference (Celsius / Fahrenheit) out of SpecialK.ini and into Global\osd.ini
Moved the Steam Achievements ini file to Global\achievements.ini

Special K v 0.7.0 Released

This version supports auto-update, but you will have to install it manually because there is no branch support in the last 0.6.x release.

To opt-in to auto-updates for 0.7.x, install this version into My Mods\SpecialK and then edit Version/installed.ini and change Branch=Latest to Branch=Testing.

I added an option to contain the mouse cursor within the game window, which is useful for some games like Skyrim where the mouse cursor may otherwise move onto a different monitor from time to time.

Grab 0.7.0 here.[github.com]

Sweet :)

HolyDeath3000 Nov 17, 2016 @ 9:12am

Okay for some odd reason I got a random error with Skyrim SE on bootup. Which it was working fine earlier. Didn't even update yet to latest 0.7.0 version.

Okay that was weird. I just booted the game up again and now it loaded without a crash... o.O

Nothing was changed at all.

Kaldaien Nov 17, 2016 @ 9:20am

It's a stack overflow caused by who knows what. SKX_SetPluginName is never called by Special K itself, that is only used by my separate plug-in DLLs. If it happens again, please include logs/preloads.log on pastebin.com and I may have a better idea what is doing that.

Okay will do and thanks for the explaination.

Updated to the 0.7 branch, Akiba's Trip now works fine (after setting AutoPumpCallbacks=false), though borderless windowed mode has the same issue as Grandia 2, Magic Duels and Saints Row 3, it becomes a tiny window.
Using the Akiba Interceptor mod (posted in the game's guides section of the community hub) for borderless mode instead.

Kaldaien Nov 17, 2016 @ 11:45am

Is this with Center=true or Center=false under the Window.System settings? If it's with Center=true, the software might be reading the resolution of the wrong monitor.

Tried with both, Center=true is a tiny window in the middle of the screen, Center=false is a tiny window in the top left of the screen.

Kaldaien Nov 17, 2016 @ 11:53am

Then I'm guessing you have DPI scaling problems. That's the only thing that would cause the window dimensions to change. Can you set Disable DPI Scaling in the application compatibility settings and let me know if anything changes?

#10

Ezodagrom Nov 17, 2016 @ 11:54am

Already tried that as well and still had the same issue.

#11

Kaldaien Nov 17, 2016 @ 12:06pm

Okay, that's weird then. The only other thing I can think of has to do with resizing the window after the border decorations are removed. Can you paste SpecialK.log to pastebin.com for one of these games? It should list the computed window dimensions.

I tried Akiba's Trip just now and didn't have any problems with the borderless feature. Centered and non-centered works as expected. The game only goes up to 1920x1080 so I can't test a situation where the display resolution is > desktop res.

11/17/2016 14:54:51.591: [Border Mgr] WINDOW => {Left: 960, Top: 506} - (WxH: 1920x1080) 11/17/2016 14:54:51.592: [Border Mgr] WINDOW => {Left: 960, Top: 506} - (WxH: 1920x1080)

Akiba's Trip log, removed the mod, verified cache to be sure, disabled DPI scaling in the compatibility tab, set borderless, center and renderinbackground to true.

Picture of how it looks like:

And another game with the same issue, Saints Row 3, also with DPI scaling disabled, borderless, center, renderinbackground.

Hmm, thinking about it, a few weeks ago I had to get a new graphics card due to my previous one having issues, when I got the new card my PC was pretty slow.
While I usually avoid using tools like this, I ended using display driver uninstaller, wouldn't be surprised if that messed something on my system. ._.
