[MOD] TurboHUD <-- The very first thread TurboHUD had ever

[Stormreaver]

Hi KillerJohn,

First, thanks for this awesome program.

Sadly, I am having trouble running it. I have tried every step I can think of, and I read the manual and the text files and went through many posts here, but after 2 hours I still cannot fix my problem.

Basically, I can launch the program (latest version), it puts D3 into the foreground and it works in the background, but it does not draw any overlay UI.

I tried:
- using the latest version (14.3.23.1) and the one before that (14.3.14.2).
- running prog as admin.
- giving it full rights in Comodo, added to trust progs, even ran Comodo in "Game Mode". Comodo is not the problem here though.
- changing all the different compatibility options and combinations.
- changing high_framerate to 0 and 1.
- enabled/disabled Aero.
- played around with all the basic and Aero themes.
- tried it in Windows Fullscreen (which is what I normally run). Windowed, and even Fullscreen (prog could not bring the game into focus in Fullscreen).


The only way for it to actually draw a UI is if I choose to "Disable Desktop Composition". The problem however is that when I do that and it draws a UI then:
- I will see a black circle around my character.
- many items in my inventory and stash have brown blocks on them.
- the Minimap is "blackened", like someone drew over it with a black marker pen.

I am running:
- Win7 64-bit SP1, English.
- DirectX 11.
- .NET Full v4.5.1.
- did not modify anything in TurboHud.

Any ideas please?

I hope you know that it does not work if you run D3 in fullscreen mode.
You have to enable desktop composition and then try to find the real problem. Did you tried to run HUD in XP compatibility mode?
Try to run D3 in a window and check if it works.
Did you checked your logs folder? zip the entire folder and send it to me in a Private message.

I don't know why, but for some reason like the overlay has a delay on it.. like if I'm moving around.. it stops following with my character for just a split second then snaps back into place.. happens every like 3-5 seconds.

- Yeah I read that it does not work in fullscreen, but I tried it as part of my testing and noted above that it did not even bring d3 into focus.
- As I said, with desktop composition enabled it never draws the UI at all. It only draws the UI with it disabled but then the UI is buggy as described.
- Yes, I tried all the compatibility modes and all the options there.
- Logs folder only contain "status.txt". I will send you the contents of that in PM.

press F11 and check the top values (mseconds). In case you have no idea what those number mean then PM me with the screenshot.

your log files seems OK. Ofc it does not mean that you are OK... Maybe you are using some kind of desktop manager or anything?
HUD is creating an always-on-top window for Direct2D rendering and it should be always over your D3.
A question: if you press alt-tab then you can see HUD's window (overlay) in between the application thumbnail list, or not? (you shouldn't)

- EHP is no longer a number, but a bar displaying relative EHP to the toughest of the party. You can move your mouse over your portrait and you can see a comparison table.
- Sheet DPS has no bar, but it is in the comparison table. It is useless.
- you can't remove the bars in multiplayer

sorry, but party portraits doesn't have too much customization options because I'm busy with other stuff.

use the forum's search feature to find your solution (related to your firewall or something)

- I do not have any desktop manager other than the normal WDM for Win7 Ultimate 64bit. Also for testing, I disabled WMD.exe from task manager which also disabled related features such as "desktop compostion" and so THUD drew the UI glitched like before.

- While trying again with all the different compatibility options, the prog ran the UI once normally (I think it was normal as I did not see any glitches), but it disappeared as soon as I alt-tabbed and it never re-appeared.

- I did not see HUD window in taskbar or in the thumbnail list. It only appeared as an exe under "Task Manager".

Stormreaver: Try this -> D3 in Windowed Mode. Get to the point you know it is working, but not overlaying properly. Minimize D3 completely. Run something that has a UAC prompt. For example: After minimizing D3, hit WinKey + R and type in 'regedit'. Accept and close regedit. Now click D3 in taskbar to bring it back. Can you see HUD now?

[Aarkin]

@KillerJohn will HUD ever support xml parsing for sounds on item drops?

[R3peat]

wow, somebody read the changelog

not everybody is reading it :P

btw 1 day left guys! ros hype! :P

[cloudstrife007]

Would it be possible to make ctrl + end not work out of game? annoying when im alt tabbed on a website and have to use ctrl end to get to the end of a page or what not. I can't use any of the other key functions out of game.. just odd ctrl + end does..

Also, kind of an odd request, but would it be possible to setup HUD to work on a certain diablo 3 window.. like if you set it by window name. Say if I'm using like ISBoxer.. I could tell HUD to only work on Game1 or something..
