monitor more than 3 GPU's #246

Hi could you add the possibility to monitor more than 3 GPU's at once. Thanks

May I ask your usecase? I do not plan on adding any more GPU Meter variants to stock ModernGadgets, but you could fairly easily copy/paste the skin files to create as many as you wish.

Mining?

SimonBL commented 3 years ago

yes, mining. I tried copying the whole Modern Gadgets folder then load GPUmeter from there but the settings file affects both versions. Same if I copy the subfolder GPUmeter only.

SimonBL commented 3 years ago

I assume I need to edit the settings files but I'm not familiar enough with rainmeter to achieve this. If anyone has pointers to help me do this it would be appreciated.

Turns out there was a bug and all of the GPU Meter variants would use the same settings. I've fixed that for the next version.

To make more GPU Meters, you need to copy the GPU3 folder and paste it, then name that GPU4. Edit GPU4/GpuMeter.ini and change GpuSettings1.inc to GpuSettings4.inc, then change gpuIndex=3 to gpuIndex=4. Then navigate to @Resources/Settings and copy GpuSettings3.inc into GpuSettings4.inc. Ppen GpuSettings.inc and scroll to the bottom, copy the HWiNFO-Config-GPU-3] section, paste it below, and change all of the 3s to 4. Scroll up until you find the HWiNFO-GPU3 variables, copy/paste them and rename to GPU4.

Rinse and repeat as many times as you need. However, please note that you will need to do all of this again any time you update the suite.
