Homebrew Homebrew app Ultrahand Overlay - The fully craft-able overlay executor

[ppkantorski]

@ppkantorski
A guy sent me something interesting about Fan Control, is it possible to put its overlay on Ultrahard?

The way that package works just modifies atmosphere's tskin fan curve defined in the ini. Its doable in Ultrahand for sure, but I've already recompiled NX-FanControl overlay with libultrahand (which uses direct temperatures rather than TSkin). It works with a sys module and is probably a better option if you wanted to directly customize the fan curve.

Or you can also just use the linear max temp for fan curve defined in OC Toolkit / EOS (which applies a linear relationship to TSkin temperature and fan speed). From testing, this often works just as well (if not better) than just manually specifying a % for each temperature.

Hello! What a great tool—I’m still amazed by how incredible it is. I have a question and I’m not sure if it’s possible: when opening UltraHand, the overlays appear directly. Is there a way to display both overlays and commands on the same screen simultaneously? Or set commands as the initial screen and overlays as the secondary?

Thank you for such great work!

In the past I allowed users to make the packages page their default menu, but I removed that feature since not many people used it. I can add it back in, if it is something you'd prefer

It would be great to have that feature back, thank you!

Interesting your modification with libultrahand with OC Toolkit / EOS.
what is the path to create the ini? with this configuration
Congratulations on your work

Added the described feature Ultrahand Overlay v1.8.2 (and fixes to prevent random screenshots in PNGShot).

you can look at this part for OC Toolkit

Thank you @ppkantorski I've been using it as well until it got removed. Glad to see it back

what do you mean by it doesnt work? here you'd only need the `[Tskin Target]` entry.

Or you can use nx--fancontrol.

NX-FanControl is an overlay, not a package, so it shows up in Overlays.

You could also do something like this, where it linearly scales the fan from 0% to 100% from 36C to (52 to 60)C.

Not sure why you are naming it `NX-FanControl` tho, (because its just a trackbar, not associated with NX-FanControl).

NX-FanControl overlay looks like this and works with a custom system module for using the actual temperatures instead of TSkin. The implementation here is different. It doesnt just modify Atmosphere's ini.

I named it NX-FanControl to differentiate it from other configurations, just that.
Here the cooler is working in sleep mode.

Hey @ppkantorski, just wanna say thank you for putting a request that was requested a long time ago (change overlay display name), I was asking for that and it's nice to feel heard.

Is there any updated wiki on what can Ultrahand do? How I set new packages, and how to navigate them?

Thank you for your incredible work <3

It may be missing stuff, and some things may be out dated on the information so I will need to look over it more sometime, but there is a wiki on the github.

hi .... Is it possible to translate a language from an overlay with ultrahand?

Could anyone help me a little on what steps to take to do this?

unless the overlay support multiple language, nop, you will need to edit the code of the overlay and build it for your self.

@ppkantorski: bro is it possible to launch homebrew like Breeze from ultrahand overlay? or is it too resource hungry?
