Does it run on 64 bit OS? I've downloaded the app and tried to install it but so far it is installing for over an hour...still nothing!
Hi lagerchobg,
I apologize for this, Overwolf should run on a 64bit OS without a problem. The installation process normally takes no more than 1-2 minutes, so clearly we have an issue...
Our support guys will contact you shortly via PM in order to sort this out .
Nice App! I love the skype capabilities, just an fyi for everyone running raptr with this...turn off the in-game overlay options for raptr or it could freeze your game if you alt tab.

I honestly don't care about the release date anymore. If it's sometime in Q1/Q2 2012, no biggy.
I was excited to play SWTOR. However, after learning about all the limitations and directed gameplay, I speak against it quite often. But I'll still buy it and play it for a few weeks.
Tried skimming through the thread here. Does this have an widget for an overlay for Ventrilo/Teamspeak 3? So that when a person talks in vent/TS I get their name showing up in game? Is there anything possible like this with this program? Does this program interfere or is it detected by PunkBuster?
You can do most of this with RIFT now in regards to the social media connection, minus the in game browser but i run the game in windowed fullscreen so just popping up firefox is no real issue. Digsby gets me the chat bubbles and facebook integration i need.
Not everyone is playing RIFT buddy, there are games that don't have any of these features so don't post annoying comments.
There are many unanswered questions in this thread, though overwolf has been great about answering most of the questions.
I'm sure It could very well be spyware, but I don't think they plan on releasing the information to anyone without benefits for both players and companies.
I might have to try it myself, It saddens me that It doesn't support Aion, But I'm sure they'll add support for it if a few more people ask (Including me, I'd like it alot).
I'm gonna do a bit more research on the site about the social media integration to see what exactly it posts on Facebook and such.
Edit: Read Overwolf's site, Yay for steam and aion support! did they fix the forced post on facebook yet? I'd like that to be optional.
Steam Integration would be amazing if it doesn't have it already, and the app's concept sounds really good.
Sorry for the long post, just dumping some opinions on here,
Read the site, Aion support and steam Integration found, cool, also did they make it optional for the facebook posts? (sorry if double post)
Doesn't work with The Secret World in DirectX 11 .. why write a program that only works with old tech? why not just develop for DirectX 11? I'm not willing to lower my game to directX 9 for this. sorry.
Know this is late in the convo, almost ot the point of a necro post, but since the 'feedback' option and the website itself just errors whenever I try to send anything, here maybe u might see;
I am absolutly sick of overwolf being 'force and ghost' installed on my system. I can already count 4 times since I built this system (8 months ago) where I was installing or uninstalling some (Unrelated) program and i get an error that 'overwolf has stopped responding'
At that point I have to go sifting though my computer and looking for registry keys to get this peice of garbage program off my system. A week or two later, and overwolf pops up again.
I do not know if your bundling your spyware onto other games, or if its somehow connected to websites I use, but I DO NOT WANT overwolf on my system, I didn't before (when I trusted the program as just what you 'advertised' it to be) and i DEFINATLY do not want it anywhere NEAR my system now that I have had the wonderful experience of removing it (four times now) without ever having installed it.
I wonder if your using the ploy babylon and other scamware sites use, where you have checkboxes to 'allow' thier program (on a page that looks important?) and when you de-select all options, it gives another popup with fine print with a greyed out 'cancel' button? - Hit ok and boom, everything is instantlly installed?
Sorry, but your in the same boat as those... theives and internet bandits now. I see overwolf and and related company, as little more than your average email spammer.
Please review your process for providing your 'product' to people. I now consider overwolf and anything related as spyware and will NOT play a 'overwolf supported' game until I can be sure that OW is NOT on my system.
Was that good enough feedback for you? (Also fix your feedback system that seems to 'error' out any time u try to send negitive responses lol)
Your program was not needed, wanted, or desired in any way before u came along. Xfire, ventrilo, etc, all do the job, with much less resource hogging, and none of them are 'forced'
Please just go out of buisness already and stop harrassing us.

I'd like to know that aswell.
Sorry if this was asked already, but will it eventually allow users to chat on Facebook and not just read News/Status updates?
He who keeps his cool best wins.

Definately going to be giving this a go.
Great job Overwolf!
I love it, but can't use it for Aion, so it's kinda a bust for me.
two questions is their a pandora widget or is it able to run it in the background and what about netflix any support for silverline?
Does this program interfere or is it detected by PunkBuster?
Wonder how they got Skype into this ... it is something none of the other chat programs have...
Buy Neverwinter Nights 1 here! | Unofficial NWN1 homepage | NWN1 guild on X-Fire
If you want a VIOP with built in overlay switch to Mumble.
Howerver, the overlay will get flagged by punkbuster..
i like the snow effect :]
