# Installation
|
|
|
|
If you do not wish to compile anything, simply download the file under Releases, extract it, and run `./install.sh` from within the extracted folder.
|
|
|
|
If you wish to compile MangoHud to keep up to date with any changes - first clone this repository and cd into it:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/flightlessmango/MangoHud.git
|
|
cd MangoHud
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then simply run the following command:
|
|
|
|
`./build.sh install`
|
|
|
|
This will build and copy `libMangoHud.so` & `libMangoHud32.so` to `$HOME/.local/share/MangoHud`, as well as copying the required Vulkan layer configuration files.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
If you are running an Ubuntu-like distribution, Fedora, or Arch, the build script will automatically detect and prompt you to install missing build dependencies. If you run into any issues with this please report them!
|
|
|
|
## Packaging status
|
|
|
|
[Fedora](https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/mangohud): `sudo dnf install mangohud`
|
|
|
|
[Arch](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mangohud): Install `mangohud` and `lib32-mangohud` with your favourite AUR helper. `mangohud-git` is also available on the AUR.
|
|
|
|
# Normal usage
|
|
|
|
To enable the MangoHud Vulkan overlay layer, run :
|
|
|
|
`MANGOHUD=1 /path/to/my_vulkan_app`
|
|
|
|
Or alternatively, add `MANGOHUD=1` to your shell profile.
|
|
|
|
## Hud configuration
|
|
|
|
MangoHud comes with a config file which can be used to set configuration options globally or per application. The priorities of different config files are:
|
|
|
|
1. `/path/to/application/dir/MangoHud.conf`
|
|
2. `$HOME/.config/MangoHud/{application_name}.conf`
|
|
3. `$HOME/.config/MangoHud/MangoHud.conf`
|
|
4. `$HOME/.local/share/MangoHud/MangoHud.conf`
|
|
|
|
The default config file is installed to `$HOME/.config/MangoHud/MangoHud.conf` and will not be overwritten by the script.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### `MANGOHUD_CONFIG` environment variable
|
|
|
|
You can also customize the hud by using the `MANGOHUD_CONFIG` environment variable while separating different options with a comma. This takes priority over any config file.
|
|
|
|
A partial list of parameters are below. See the config file for a complete list.
|
|
|
|
| Variable | Description |
|
|
|------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|
|
| `cpu_temp`<br>`gpu_temp` | Displays current CPU/GPU temperature |
|
|
| `core_load` | Displays load & frequency per core |
|
|
| `ram`<br>`vram` | Displays system RAM/VRAM usage |
|
|
| `full` | Enables all of the above config options |
|
|
| `crosshair` | Adds a crosshair overlay at the centre of the screen |
|
|
| `font_size=` | Customizeable font size (default=24) |
|
|
| `width=`<br>`height=` | Customizeable hud dimensions (in pixels) |
|
|
| `position=` | Location of the hud: `top-left` (default), `top-right`, `bottom-left`, `bottom-right` |
|
|
| `no_display` | Hide the hud by default |
|
|
| `toggle_hud=`<br>`toggle_logging=` | Modifiable toggle hotkeys. Default are F12 and F2, respectively. |
|
|
| `time`<br>`time_format=%T` | Displays local time. See [std::put_time](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/io/manip/put_time) for formatting help. |
|
|
| `gpu_color`<br>`gpu_color`<br>`vram_color`<br>`ram_color`<br>`io_color`<br>`engine_color` | Change default colors: `gpu_color=RRGGBB`|
|
|
|
|
Note: Width and Height are set automatically based on the font_size, but can be overridden.
|
|
|
|
Example: `MANGOHUD_CONFIG=cpu_temp,gpu_temp,position=top-right,height=500,font_size=32`
|
|
