[1440P] RetroLake - Mirrored - V.13 (audio responsive, mirrored and configurable):
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1692834824

[FullHD] RetroLake V.10 (audio responsive):
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1535509973

Performance Version (FullHD, video; legacy):
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1428912236

Used effects:
- reflection (multiple layers)
- pulse (multiple layers for the stars/water; audio responsive parts)
- water ripple (multiple value steps)
- god rays (multiple layers)
- clouds (multiple value steps)
- and many more

My personal first attempt with Wallpaper Engine. I'm open for suggestions, effects to add, etc.

The time has come! The next (and probably biggest by now) update is here: Version 13 adds further plenty of configurable variables, togglable layers, a possible divide between the two sides and most importantly a cleaner, complete rework of the water animation, reflection areas and the highway.

Changelog V.13:
⦁ added tons of options to configure yourself
⦁ complete rework of the water animation, reflection areas, lines and the highway
⦁ reworked presets (check the Google Doc link in the description/screenshots)
⦁ added simple clock (deactivated by default)
To check if you have an old version or V.13 look in the config settings: if there are "Stars
Layer 1" to "Stars Layer 4" you have made the update
. Otherwise you're still on an old version
⦁ [1440P] RetroLake is also on update 13. As many of you use FullHD monitors, you could, if you had two of them, put the [4K] and the [1440P] versions side by side

__________________________________________________________
The preset list is here! You can choose between 4 presets:

"Stormy Water, Calm Clouds",
"Clean Green",
"Red Glow, Blue Force" and
"Dark Blue".

Make sure you read the short text before you start. There is a preset list for the [4K] V.13 RetroLake and the mirrored [1440P] V.13 one, though not for [FullHD] X!

If it is easy to implement, it would be nice if I could have a slider for the vertical position of the clock. On my 32:9 screen I basically have to choose between the clock or the highway lines in the water.

I could try to remove the spots (make them optional) however the colored reflection of the spots could be an issue. Perhaps I look into it some time off work, but I can't promise anything right now :Neko:

Do you think that you could make it to where we could change the colors of those two spots, the red and blue. the red really doesn't match with my color pallet

This is my favorite Wallpaper in the entire app! Wish I could flip it upside down so it would look like my second display is a mirror of the first. :steamthumbsup:
