PW Overlay

Free feature

Live windows: see every PW account on one screen

Yes: PW Overlay’s Live windows show all your Perfect World accounts as thumbnails in a single window, so you see what each one is doing and click a thumbnail to jump to it. It’s free.

Every account in a single window, refreshing every 2 s or continuously; click to jump to any of them. Free.

How it works

With the “Every 2 s” refresh, thumbnails barely load your PC; on “Continuous”, they all move nonstop (heavier on the graphics card).

To keep background windows from freezing on their last frame, turn on “Background windows moving”: see why background windows freeze in Perfect World.

How to use it

  1. Open Live windows

    With your accounts open, press Ctrl+J or use the button on the overlay.

  2. Pick the refresh rate

    “Every 2 s” barely loads your PC; on “Continuous”, they all move nonstop, but it’s heavier on the graphics card.

  3. Click to jump to an account

    One click on a thumbnail takes the game to that account.

Questions

Why do the background windows freeze?

PW stops drawing any window that isn’t in front. Turn on “Background windows moving” under Settings → Game; the why is in why background windows freeze in Perfect World.

Does it slow down my PC?

On the “Every 2 s” refresh, barely. “Continuous” and background windows moving are a bit heavier: turn them on only if your PC has power to spare.
