Description
The updated version of my Dota2 Game Menu Rainmeter.
What's new:
- Config utilities - custom made config utilities to set your media player, weather code, dotabuff stats, RSS feedback URL, slideshow image path, launcher and dock icons, aspect ratio.
- Suited for every resolutions - the skin auto-scales the topbar, top dock and the Main window; config tool allows you to further scale the size of main window (percentual); made an extra small version off the RSS window to fit low screen height screens too. Change the top launcher / dock aspect ratio with the config utility; the right side skins' aspect ratio can be set with the expand / collapse icons on them.
- Reworked weather, time and media player skins: they are now part of the main window, not a seperate config which made dragging the window pretty frustrating (also they scale with the main window).
Added slideshow / wallpaper changer instead of world clock, as most feedback deem it pretty useless.
- You can now seek tracks played and adjust volume of media player in the now playing tab of the main window. Misc visual upgrade there too.
- Added top dock: arrow icons switches between the skin launcher (old) and the dock. The dock's category names can be set as well as the icons - path, name and icon, with 10 icons for each category. Greyscaling is optional, I personally like it due to the matching icons I'm using.
- Skin launcher shut down: closes all open skins but the bar itself.
- Dock shut down: system shut down context menu.

Visual Style used is my Dota 2 Desktop for Windows Visual Style (an update is coming for that too, though since for a while I neglected it, it will eventually take some time to pick it up from where I was the last time).

the player is not working? i already type WINAMP in Config. but still can not play the song
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Weird, Winamp has always worked fine for me. There were some trouble at certain times with Foobar or Musicbee, but never Winamp.
Are you using the latest version of Winamp? (I know it hasn't been updated for years now though) Or maybe some plugin interferes with it?

hello there, first of all, great theme, secondly I have a question regards the media player in the left element. I set the media player to zune, it does show the song name, album, artist but not the track progress, rating or album artwork, is there anyway to fix this?

Not sure about Zune now, but from Rainmeter's manual:
Zune: PlayerName=WLM
Partially supported. Even in the best case, only the types Title, Artist, Album and the bangs Play, Pause,PlayPause, Next, Previous, Stop are supported.

I have read all your comments regarding on how to adjust the size for the main toolbar(with the drow ranger wallpapper) but none of those I could understand. Hopefully you could give me simpler instructions. For the player I have a question, does the picture and name that will appear will be based on the music format because nothing had been showed up even i used Winamp as the default media player. Also how do I change the default browser of your rainmeter from mozilla to chrome. Thanks for advance and more power!
By the way great job on this theme and to be honest its my first time to use rainmeter and theme and configure it so it took me a whole day on configuring it. In contrary, I like it very much and hopefully to install your new game HUD rainmeter when I have time.

Hello there!
Currently I don't have Rainmeter installed, but luckily I remember which config tools were the ones you need.
Right click on the skin, go to Dota2 -> config -> sconfig for the scaling of the window (it's percentual);
right click -> Dota2 -> config -> yconfig has the player setup, click on "Player name", and type in Winamp, then press enter.
The browser will be your system's default browser if you click on links, so if you want to change that, change your default programs behaviour in Windows.
I hope I could help you!

Has the dotabuff skin been updated yet? Because I can't get mine to work..
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I got a partial fix, still didn't work fully...
Will try to get it fixed, but my monitor died on me, so not really into making skins until I get a new one (now I'm using a somewhat faulty 14" CRT monitor...)

Sir can i ask how to change dat name and picture on left windows skin (welcome)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
For the pictures, click on the gear icon on the top left, and in the "Images path" (or something like that) set a folder for your wallpapers / pictures you'd like to slideshow.
If by the name you mean the weather location, you can also change your location code in the config utility; you can find your location code on yahoo.weather.com, by searching for your city (even if it does automatically take you to the right place), and copying the last couple of digits from the URL.

hi, how can i fix the dota2stats.ini? it was working in the beginning, but now it doesn't show any of the stats
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hello there!
If you have not modified any of the skin itself, it probably has to do with Rainmeter's way of handling webparser plugin when refreshing multiple times.
Usually exiting Rainmeter fully, then restarting it fixes that issue.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Could the issue not be Dotabuff's new layout and new stats? For me the stats were working fine up until Dotabuff's update, but perhaps that's just a coincidence.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, and a fellow Deviant was kind enough to already post me a working code, so will really have to upload the new version soon, just have so little time and so much to do, but it will be up in a day or two.

Hi! How do i change the Dota2 image to my custom Steam image (the image beside the DotaBuff name)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh I've left it out from the customizer, so you'll probably have to right click -> edit skin to find and replace that picture.
If I get home I'll see where exactly to look.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Okay i'll wait for the exact instructions 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I've actually made that Dota2 icon as part of the background.
I might do a 2.2 version after finishing my current project(s).
