Real Temp - New temp program for Intel Core processors

[unclewebb]

Guys, Can anyone tell me where the entire explanation in the start post went?

I'm probably the best guy to answer that question. I moved everything over to the TechPowerUp website so it's easy to go there and read about RealTemp and to download the latest stable version. So far, I've been keeping the beta versions separate.

If you open up RealTemp and right click on the title bar and select the About... menu option and click on the TechPowerUp logo, you should end up at the TechPowerUp / RealTemp website. Scroll half way down that page and in BIG letters is a heading called Documentation

After that it shows a link called Installation & Calibration Page. There is also a link to the download section on the main page.

Too many users came to this forum and were asking the most basic questions without having read the documentation in the first post. Everything is in one place now so there are no excuses and I also don't have to update the docs in multiple different locations. If you are beta testing you will have to read through this XS thread a little or look in the INI file to see what changes have happened.

Has anyone modified a font yet with the software I mentioned last night and got it working in RealTemp? With small fonts that have to fit into a 8x16 area for each digit, it is sometimes easier to create your own font so you get just what you want to see.

XtremeTiramisu: Your idea has already reached the top of my things to do list. I plan to create a second page within RealTemp for editing the settings. Editing INI files is too much like Windows 95! If there were 2 of me all this stuff would get done much sooner. The plan has always been Accuracy -> Usable for XS type users -> Usable for Everyone without having to read or think too much.

Richard Dower: Is it possible to "jazz up" the window design?...make it more Vista-ish?...transparency etc?

I'm only using Visual C++ 6.0 so there's not too much I can do without a lot of additional coding. I'll leave that to the open source world when I lose interest in RealTemp.

Talonman: I'll put you down for one for the RTFont. It's very simple and legible and it's easy enough to edit any digit if you aren't happy.
