Now we all know, counting our total time ever since you started osu! can be a bit of a problem but its never too late to start counting! osu!tt will do the job for you!
This little app monitors if osu! is turned on and counts its total uptime. It is also portable so you can put it anywhere you want!
Information is stored in the windows registries and can save if you log off or shutdown your computer while its running (experimental needs testing)!

Download


Have fun!
If you find any bug and its not in the KNOWN PROBLEMS list below, notify me.


Source code is available on https://github.com/Flanster/osuTT

...does this work retroactively? I've always been interested in how much time I've wasted spent well playing osu!

most of the time the panel is hidden, but it wouldn't hurt to have the possiblity to move the panel somewhere else e.g. on my case

That beefy taskbar...

I added the option to move the panel, you can grab this region to move it.


Download link updated.
Also it will remember the location if the program is closed.

This is really cool. :)
It's pretty and simple, and you can hide it in your desktop menu bar which is nice.

Also, not too sure, but I think i found a bug: It looks like the triangle minimize key isn't treated the same as right clicking the icon (on the desktop menu bar) and clicking to hide.
After minimizing with the triangle on the program, you have to click "show/hide UI" twice in order for it show up. It runs the same while osu! is open or closed.

So, i guess steps to clarify (program already running) : Hit triangle to minimize>"hide/show UI" (it should show up, but doesn't)> "hide/show UI" (now it shows up).

That's only something small, so not a big deal.

now you just need a counter for how many times you break our counting :P

I think it would be better if the counter is only activated when you are playing and stop when you are idle.
And I can not find the icon of the counter after hiding it.

original
yo creo que sería mejor si el contador solo se activará cuando estas jugando y que se detuviera cuando estes idle.
Y no puedo encontrar el icono del contador despues de ocultarlo.

No, but you can set that yourself.

This is made for fun so I don't want to go into advanced window handle detection.
And the tray icon works fine for me.

I like the new icon
the old one was kinda hard to see

Just an idea
also, some people might have some security stuff on their comp so the toggle for start up might not work.

you could put this in the description: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/wind ... =windows-7
or just copy paste the instructions
or just let them google it for themselves. owo

This application's purpose is to count time. What does this feature have to do with anything the program has to offer?

After downloading/opening I clicked on the down arrow. And the program was never to be open again. Not sure whats up but I cannot get it to work now.

Also, would it be possible to count in song time in the future? (without auto mod) To see a more real number .

The program is still in the taskbar tray.
Detecting gameplay is possible, but automod detection, NOT SO MUCH :o

Not for me at least. After pressing the arrow down the program just exits or hides in an un-openable aparent way. (The only way for me to fix it is by restarting my computer). I am using windows 7 64 bit. Maybe something is wrong on my end.

And gameplay time would be nice ^^

very slick design! I like it. If you get time, could you please add like a border or a background or something to the icon in the system tray, because if a minimize it, it goes invisible xD http://prntscr.com/6eujf7

This is neat. If anyone's wondering an estimate of their osu! time retroactively, check out the tool I made, osu!time. I reckon if osu!tt could connect to the internet we could make a pretty accurate time checker.

working great!!

it would be awesome to add this and Osu!Profile as small applets into the osu! engine and the game's site so everyone could show their dedication :P... maybe Peppy would help with that if it's not too time consuming?...

still... awesome job! keep it up!

When trying to set the app to start with Windows i get an error message saying I should get in touch with the administrator (which is me) or use the tool Configuration of Microsoft . NET Framework. The error message is saying that access is denied to the registry solicited (launching the app on starting Windows). Currently using Windows 7, 32 bit.

Any help to tell me how to make the app launch on booting Windows? Thank you!

You're getting this, right?
Picture
As the first post says, add it manually like this: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/wind ... =windows-7
It's kinda buggy sometimes, but it works.


@LoliFlan
Do you want me to get a better screenshot of that? The original one kinda hurts the eyes, because the transparency of the window included my background.
Also, nice job getting on osu! weekly!

You're welcome!
Also application is now updated to 0.4 with various fixes. I have addressed the problem with not being able to set startup with windows and replaced it with a simple warning message box instead of the .NET one.

Hey LoliFlan, you should add something like this :

"since ../../.... at ..:.."
So we don't need to remember when we installed osu!tt :oops:

Thanks for making this useful program btw :D

EDIT : It seems that when I right-click on the tray icon, I can't "Exit & Save". There is nothing that happens when I click on it, so to close the process I must use the task manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc) and I'm afraid of losing my save :o . Please fix it :?

I used to track my gametime with Raptr, and I'd rather convert over to using this, because it's not nearly as heavy as Raptr is. Do you have any thoughts on a feature where I could add my previous played hours, since I know how many I had?

oo
SPOILER
Thats so cool!

Are you gonna give each of the state's different colors like the f9 screen?

And since it can tell which state its in, would it be possible to add a sorta've timer for each of the states?
For example, people could be interested in total time "playing" or "editing" as separate timers. Being able to pick which timer you would
like to see like "total time", playing time, editing time, etc, would be awesome. :D

Also, It's looking great Loli! I'm looking forward to any future updates!

2 bugs that I want to report.

Don't know if it's just for me but for some reason I can't save and exit the application. It just doesn't do anything when I press that button.
Second: The trey icon won't dissapear after shutting down the osu!tt process from task manager. Maybe has something to do with the other problem.

Ask for any specs to debug if needed

Nothing is happening? Are you getting a messagebox atleast?

The icon will never be disposed properly if the process was halted like this.
