Overlay.NET - a simple overlay library

[lolp1]

Hi, while not directly WoW related, I know some frequent visitors of this section who do not view other sections on these forums would find some use out of this or find it interesting. Copied and pasted my post on another forums below suggestions, advice, or contributions welcome.

Hi there!

A little it back I posted my Overlay.NET library. For those who do not know, an overlay in this case is simply a transparent window that renders on top of another window. Think something like the FRAPS FPS counter that renders your current fps over your game, but with you being in control and much more power to render more than a few letters of text.

Since I got positive feedback, I have updated it a little with a directx overlay and a better example of what the library does with an improved demo/demo video.

Is there any way to use it as a dll? I would like to require it from nodejs and then call the draw functions programmatically from js

Compile it (it's a class library) and if you want I think you can use this NuGet Gallery
| Unmanaged Exports (DllExport for .Net) 1.2.7 and export its methods, never tried it though. I think it should work.
