@D "Coffee": Please check out :
https://steamproxy.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1081733658

It's the 'upgraded' version of this wallpaper. It supports way more features (and a clock! - haha)
D "Coffee" 3.0 29 OCT 2019 a las 22:10 
Great job, love it. Can you please clock option? Thanks!

Thanks a lot for your reply & helping me out, I'll make sure to try the new wallpaper!

Your work is surely helping the community to be an even better place!

@Bigstool : That's weird, it's still supposed to be working :P I didn't update this wallpaper since July 2017....

That being said, if you would like to try this one -- :
http://steamproxy.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1081733658

This is the wallpaper I'm currently supporting. It has all the features of this wallpaper (and much - much more)

I have stopped fixing issues on this wallpaper -- I can't support every wallpaper forever :(
Bitool 7 JUL 2018 a las 21:15 
The 'Background" customization doesn't seem to be working, every image I chose did nothing to the background, any idea how to fix it?
Amazing work and thank you anyway

just one??

@Don't Spooky Me, although it should still work, I'd suggest you try this wallpaper :

http://steamproxy.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1081733658

It's the 'next' version of this wallpaper, and features a lot more customizable options. Hence this wallpaper is not any longer supported by me.

Whenever I try to add an image for the background nothing happens... Rip my background dream ;)

NOTE: !!

This wallpaper will be replaced by this one in the future :
http://steamproxy.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1081733658

If you like this wallpaper, please check out this one as well. It should feature the same amount of customizability ( with many more options like a clock ( digital + analog ), perspective & rainbow colours )

It still misses a second visualizer so you can have bars + circle, but I will add that soon!

I will still fix bugs that are found in this wallpaper, but no features will be developed anymore. If you have any requests regarding the 'new' version, I will take everything in consideration.

Thank you all for your support :)!

nice one thanks im really looking forward to your new wallpaper
Arthesian  [autor] 17 JUL 2017 a las 22:32 
UPDATE :

(Almost) ALL sliders have been made 'editable', meaning you can enter your own value in the box, if it's outside of the pre-defined range.

Note: With great power, comes great responsibility. If you set the glow size to 200 for example, and borders enabled, expect horrible frame-rates....

Note 2:
I'm currently developing a successor for this wallpaper, I won't release feature updates for this wallpaper any more. The new wallpaper will have all the features of this one ( that's the goal at least :P), and much more

@rick, with the new update, you are able to enter a custom value of your own in the 'bar length multiplier'. Go nuts :)
♥♥♥♥♥♥.me | rick 17 JUL 2017 a las 22:10 
Truely amazing piece of work! - Is there a possibility that you could make the 'bar length multiplier' go further than 400? my sound settings aren't quite loud enough to trigger it
N44Mii 16 JUL 2017 a las 7:47 
wow really looking forward to it :)
Arthesian  [autor] 16 JUL 2017 a las 6:54 
@Egoist : I will take your suggestions into account.

I will probably release a new Wallpaper soon, that will have far more features ( and the ones in this wallpaper included ). So I will probably implement them in that one.

I have completely rewritten most code of this wallpaper, to a point where it only consists of modules, which can be turned 'on' and 'off'. I hope I can show it soon.
N44Mii 15 JUL 2017 a las 21:37 
oh and while im add it i would also love it if you could modify the length total width even smaller or even tell me how to add that on my own love your work^^
N44Mii 15 JUL 2017 a las 21:35 
hi there i was wondering if you could add an option to set the visualizer bar so it only goes upwards or downwards i would love to use it over my logo oh and it would be nice if you could extend the multiplier to aroud 600
Arthesian  [autor] 10 JUL 2017 a las 8:11 
@DragonSlayer : No, currently there is not
Eclihpse 9 JUL 2017 a las 12:54 
is there a way to put a time in the middle
Toyiw 4 JUL 2017 a las 9:43 
Easy to costumize. 9.5/10 rate for the author, keep making awesome wallpaper like this pls
Arthesian  [autor] 2 JUL 2017 a las 9:53 
@Mikeastro, no problem man. I appreciate that you ask for permission first. Good luck with your channel :)
Mikeastro 2 JUL 2017 a las 5:16 
Hey Arthesian, I really like your visualizer and I was wondering if I could record my screen while playing one of my songs, to use as background for my music I upload to my youtube channel. Of course I will credit you in the description of my videos!
You can check my channel is nothing obscure: https://www.youtube.com/user/justmemikedaas/featured
I really hope you would be okay with that, and I look forward to hearing from you.

That Miku picture is cute, where can I get it?
Arthesian  [autor] 18 JUN 2017 a las 0:47 
FIXED :
- Wallpaper used to have a reference to an online script. this reference has been removed. This would cause the Wallpaper to fail loading when it was started for the first time without internet connection.

( I thought I had already fixed that a long time ago, my bad )
Gnocchi 17 JUN 2017 a las 23:54 
its completely black for me
Seia 17 JUN 2017 a las 23:50 
can u add a clock and date? thanks
Arthesian  [autor] 17 JUN 2017 a las 0:31 
@Biancake ; how does it not work for you? Do you not see any ''lines'' on your screen, or is it completely black, or does it not respond to sound?
Gnocchi 16 JUN 2017 a las 22:58 
It doesnt work for me :(
Arthesian  [autor] 16 JUN 2017 a las 2:17 
@ Simo Häyhä :

No problem :) Glad you got it working
Жаклин 16 JUN 2017 a las 1:11 
thank man i got a proper back ground of spider gwen now and its fine:steamhappy:
Жаклин 16 JUN 2017 a las 1:08 
*thanks
Жаклин 16 JUN 2017 a las 1:07 
thank i will try that and that was a fast response XD
Arthesian  [autor] 16 JUN 2017 a las 1:04 
@Simo Häyhä :

A couple things to note :
- Images will scale to cover the screen. If you use an image that is in portrait mode ( or square for that matter ), will scale to 100% width, to cover the complete screen. This means the top and bottom will be cut off.
- Small images will also be scaled up, to cover the whole screen. For instance; if you have a 1920x1080 monitor ( resolution ), but you use a 1280x720 image, the image will be scaled up to fill the complete screen.

note that you should use the same aspect ratio images as your screen ( so if your screen is 16:9, you should also use 16:9 background images -- for the best effect )

Hope this helps
Жаклин 16 JUN 2017 a las 0:51 
i have a isue when i set a pic as my backgroun useing this its masive and dose not fit my screen
so do i need to resize it or is the a seting im missing
Luma 6 JUN 2017 a las 12:08 
@Arthesian Thx :D. Keep up the good work guys!
Arthesian  [autor] 6 JUN 2017 a las 11:29 
FIXED:
- Wallpaper should now properly pauze when Wallpaper Engine pauzes it
==> Thanks to Biohazard ( developer of Wallpaper Engine )

This will significantly reduce the CPU load of the wallpaper when using a fullscreen application
( ~0,2% CPU -- instead of ~15% as it used to!! -- depending on settings )
Luma 5 JUN 2017 a las 15:15 
@Arthesian If it helps my CPU is an Intel i5-6600k.
Arthesian  [autor] 5 JUN 2017 a las 10:48 
@Luca, that is probably because this wallpaper isn't paused properly I guess. I will take a look into that
Luma 5 JUN 2017 a las 10:17 
Heya, I personally reallu like this visualizer. But, even when I maximize it's using upto 20% of my CPU. Other Visualizer doesn't do this, so why does this use so much when it should be paused?
ZhredR 21 MAY 2017 a las 14:27 
Hey, could add a digital clock please? Much appreciated.
Arthesian  [autor] 11 MAY 2017 a las 9:36 
@Beyond Kasevir

Please check the settings of Wallpaper Engine itself ( the 'kog'' buttton in the upper right corner ). At the "General" Tab, you will find a slider "Recording Volume".

I think the default is 50%, but you can crank it up all the way to 200% :)

Beyond | Kasevir 11 MAY 2017 a las 8:23 
Hey I really like that background you made!
But for some reason the bars barely move when I play music, volume doesnt change anything how can I change that?

Thanks :3

Suggestion: Add clock/widget option. That would be perfect. Imagining rotating circle visualizer with widget in the middle and flashing according to audio beats, woots
Arthesian  [autor] 1 MAY 2017 a las 6:25 
@DJ Reziz; When I enable the wallpaper it uses around 120- 200MB RAM ( it uses 3 seperate processes ). I don't actually know why it uses that much, because it's a pretty simple web-based HTML renderer. But it's based on Chrome....so yeah xD If you don't have 200MB spare RAM, I can't really help you....Then maybe using Wallpaper Engine's Web-based wallpapers are not the type for you =\

What you could do is in the settings set the Wallpapers to Pauze when a fullscreen application is detected. This will certainly reduce the CPU load, but I'm not sure if it will release the memory in use...it should however never crash your game =\
Arthesian  [autor] 1 MAY 2017 a las 6:25 
Sorry for the late reply; I was on holiday vacation :)

@.vu : try disabling borders or glow.

Glow is very resource heavy. Borders shouldn't be, but sometimes I have notices that disabling them reduces the CPU strain by a large margin.

I could try to optimize it a bit more, but HTML5 Canvas (splines/lines) @ 60FPS just isn't the most optimized renderer just yet :P

Maybe if I made the bars Images, I could use the WebGL Renderer, then the GPU would take the rendering... I will look into this :) simple bars could be simple white images with a color overlay :P

@obabashut :
Make sure you select an Image when you have the background type to ''image'', and select a folder, when the type is ''slideshow''. You can't select an image for the slideshow type :)

If this is not the case, I don't think I can help you. because this is a basic Wallpaper Engine property =\

Thank you for the great feature!
