v1.8.1.0: Steam In-Game Overlay Toggle in OmniCharm

🌐 Official Website — documentation, features overview, and installation guide.

OmniCharm Widget

✨ New Features

  • Steam In-Game Overlay toggle in OmniCharm: A new Off/On button pair at the top of the widget toggles whether long-press ☰ opens Steam In-Game Overlay, without having to open the main app's advanced settings page. Useful when a game itself requires a long-press ☰ that conflicts with the overlay trigger. (#8)

🔧 Improvements

  • Better gamepad focus in OmniCharm: Opening the widget with the A button no longer looks unfocused — the focus ring now lands directly on the currently-selected option.
  • Widget pane resized: Height adjusted to fit the new Steam In-Game Overlay section. (Note: Windows caches the Game Bar widget size — if the new layout looks clipped after updating, please restart your PC, sign out and back in, or end the Game Bar process in Task Manager.)

🛠️ Installation Instructions

Download OmniConsole_1.8.1.0_x64.zip from the Assets below and extract it to any folder.

  1. Run Install.bat. It will enable Developer Mode, install the certificate, install any missing framework dependencies, and install both MSIX packages automatically.

Option B: Manual Install

  1. [Critical] Go to Windows Settings → System → Advanced and enable Developer Mode.
  2. [Critical] Double-click OmniConsole_1.8.1.0_x64.cer → click Install Certificate → Store Location: Local MachinePlace all certificates in the following store → Browse → select Trusted People → Finish. (Skip this step if you already have the certificate installed)
  3. (Optional — only needed on fresh/offline systems; online systems fetch these automatically) Double-click each file inside Dependencies\ to install the bundled framework packages (skip any that report an equal or newer version already installed).
  4. Double-click OmniConsole_1.8.1.0_x64.msix to install the main app.
  5. Double-click OmniConsole.PhantomLink_1.8.1.0_x64-widget.msix to install the OmniCharm widget.

⚙️ Prerequisites

  • Windows 11 24H2 (Build 26100.7019)+ with Full Screen Experience (FSE) enabled.
  • Desktops, Laptops, Tablets & Handhelds without Native FSE: Use Xbox Full Screen Experience Tool to enable FSE first.
  • Native FSE Handheld Devices (e.g., ROG Xbox Ally series): FSE is natively supported. Install OmniConsole directly.
  • Xbox Controller Required: Game Bar, FSE, and all gamepad features require an Xbox-compatible (XInput) controller with an Xbox button.

v1.8.1.0: OmniCharm 新增 Steam 遊戲內嵌介面開關

🌐 前往官方網站 — 完整文件、功能介紹與安裝指南。

OmniCharm Widget

✨ 新功能

  • OmniCharm 新增 Steam 遊戲內嵌介面開關:小工具最頂端新增開啟/關閉兩顆按鈕,可切換「長按 ☰ 開啟 Steam 遊戲內嵌介面」功能,不需再開啟主程式進階設定頁操作。適用於遊戲本身需要長按 ☰ 操作,會與此功能撞時的情境。(#8)

🔧 改進

  • OmniCharm 手把焦點體驗更自然:以 A 鍵開啟小工具時不再出現失焦的視覺 — 焦點框會直接落在目前已選中的選項。
  • Widget 尺寸調整:高度調整以容納新增的 Steam In-Game Overlay 區塊。(注意:Windows 會快取 Game Bar 小工具的尺寸 — 若更新後版面看起來被裁切,請重新開機、登出再登入、或在工作管理員中結束 Game Bar 行程。)
