GAMEPAD OVERLAY — QUICK START

1. Extract the ZIP into a folder (Desktop is fine).
2. Double-click GamepadOverlay.exe. No separate installer or .NET installation is required.
3. The app opens a dedicated Chrome preview and copies a temporary overlay URL to your clipboard.
4. Add that URL as a browser or link source in TikTok LIVE Studio or your streaming software. Keep Gamepad Overlay running while streaming.
5. Button intensity now changes the actual depth of the pressed button fill. Glow softness increases button halos. Stick glow adds a halo to the moving analog cap and the stick-click ring.
6. Loading or saving a profile applies its theme, copies a styled URL for this run, and prompts you to paste the new URL into TikTok.
7. If you close the preview, double-click the tray icon or right-click it and choose Open Gamepad Overlay.

The temporary URL changes whenever the app restarts. Load your saved profile after each restart to copy a current styled URL. Saved profiles remain in your Windows user profile when you update the app.
If a browser or tunnel disconnects during an image request, Gamepad Overlay logs the disconnect and keeps running. Log: %LOCALAPPDATA%\GamePadViewerBridge\GamepadOverlay.log
