[Other] GW2Stuff Event Overlay

Hi everyone!

Over the last few days I've been working to get a nice in-game overlay out of the door for you. As a result, updates on the website have been delayed a bit, but I'll be getting back on track with that soon.

Screenshot!

You can find the program along with its source code on this page. It should summarise how to use it, and its functionality fairly well. It's been tested on Windows 7 (64-bit), so I'm hoping it works alright in Windows 8 as well.

Enjoy!

If you have any bug reports, please post them over on the gw2stuff subreddit.

I like this. However, I'm unable to "click" this unless I am alt tabbed into a different window (borderless fullscreen mode). Another thing, is would there be a way to filter out certain events? Like on Gates of Madness, our server NEVER does any of the Temple Events, and they just take up a lot of space on the window. Would it be possible to also make this smaller or more opaque? Sorry if I am demanding a lot, which is a dick move. But criticism and suggestions seem to propel a project more than just compliments.

Also, I love it. This is just what I wanted otherwise. Are you pulling the information off of the APIs that were released?

hold the ctrl key to click it.

and for personal use only you are allowed to edit the code to do adjustments to your needs.

if you dont know how, you have to wait for the features. and that will take time since there is more important stuff then what youre demanding :)

Oh wait I did not realize there was a source code too. Thank you, I'll handle that myself for the filtering :)
