    It looks incredible! Great work!!!

    It‘s possible we can use it not only for broadcasting in the future in R3E?

    Hi @Greg Metcalf

    So in order to support all resolutions, the hardcoded 1920x1080 logo image below was removed since it won't display correctly/sharply on all resolutions.

    upload_2019-1-13_17-19-9.png

    Instead, you just supply a standard size logo like this instead and it will be responsive based on resolution and scaling friendly.

    upload_2019-1-13_17-19-48.png

    So this is why your image looks tiny as its not stretching the full size of the screen if that makes sense? I would highly recommend adding the class icons as images in your broadcasting tool so you can scale and place them to your liking.

    Hope it helps.

    If you are using OBS to broadcast, you can just add it as a new Image source.

    upload_2019-1-13_17-52-10.png

    And then choose the image and position/resize it how you like.

    I had an issue with this last night, I tried to fire up version 1.4 and the start popped up briefly and went so I thought I would update it to the latest 1.5 but that did the same, it's odd as it was working fine, it must be something my end but just wondered if you had any idea why the CMD window just pops up and immediately disappears, I tried running it as admin as well but to no avail?

    Likely a missing dependency, but should not be the case as its all packaged in the .zip. What version of nodejs are you running? (type node -v in a command prompt).

    If you delete all the folders inside of /dev/node_modules and replace it with all these files, hopefully it should work for you then.

    Ok thanks will try it later and get back to you, I have a feeling I may have deleted something when I was doing a SSD clean up the other night.

    is it possible to have a version without scaling so that the logo_overlay.png will work as it should? no matter how big i made the logo for top right corner it would always be scaled to very small

    Any chance you could attach the image you are trying to use so I can take a look?

    Hi, tried what you said but no joy, added a pause to the batch file it says dev>npm start, npm is not recognised as a command?

    Is Node.js definitely installed? Sounds like it might need to be re-installed.

    Images look quite ok, there is some empty space on the left side of the logo, but I think the logo doesn't display that big due to the resolution being super wide in comparison to the height.

    If you open R3E-Reality-v1.5.1\assets\components\widgets\logoOverlay\logoOverlay.flat.less, you can change the rendering width to your liking manually.

    Code:
        img {
            width: 10em;
        }
    Just join a MP session, and you can edit that file at the same time and see live results on screen. Try 12em or 13em to start off.

    Hope it helps.

    Taking a break from development of this for now since it been pretty much been worked on non-stop since november and I would like to focus more on some IRL things. I think the tool is in a place I am happy enough with for now also.

    Please @ me if you have any issues.

    Scout.
