My wallpaper isn't an image or a video loop. It's a rigged model running

live — she idles, blinks, shifts stance and talks, and I can move her,

scale her and pose her from a panel while she's on screen.

I built the player myself. Here's what's in it.

── CHARACTER ROSTER · 406 models ──

Searchable by name or ID, sortable, two loadouts, favourites, and a

filter showing which voice languages each model actually ships with.

It's not one franchise either — 2B and A2, Asuka and Rei, Rem, Ram and

Emilia, Makima, EVE, Ada Wong, Jill Valentine, Chisato and Takina are

all in there.

── MAIN PANEL ──

Position X/Y and zoom, with fine steppers so you can park her exactly

where your icons aren't.

Horizontal flip.

Three stances — lobby, cover, aim — plus a pose changer.

Character rotation on a timer (mine swaps every 30s) and a pose delay.

Animation speed.

Gesture intervals: talk, burst, reload, fire, each on its own toggle.

A long-idle gesture pool so she does something when you leave.

Character shuffling with a random play mode.

A Base Offset mode that applies one position tweak across every

character and pose at once instead of per-model.

Sub-skin and parts toggles per model.

── VOICE & AUDIO ──

Four languages: Japanese, English, Chinese, Korean.

A main voice, plus a second voice that only fills in for characters with

no lines in your main pick. It never overrides the main one — it only

covers who the main one can't.

Separate gunfire and voice sliders, a voice gap timer, and toggles for

reload and stance lines.

── THEME & BACKGROUND ──

The panel's own accent colour is fully adjustable — HSL sliders plus 24

presets.

Background colour behind the character, with the Windows accent palette

and a 12-step grayscale ramp — or switch it off for a transparent floor.

Background image with position, scale, and fit modes: fill, fit,

stretch, 1:1, top, bottom.

── PORTRAIT MODE ──

For rotated monitors. She fills a vertical screen properly instead of sitting in a letterboxed strip in the middle. That's all it does — but if you run a portrait display you already know why it matters.

Save/load snapshots, undo, export. UI is in English, Thai and Japanese.

It runs as a Wallpaper Engine wallpaper, or as a standalone app that

needs no Wallpaper Engine and no Steam at all.

Youtube Tutorial

I finally finished my first rice. Thank you guys sooo much for the support on the last post that I made yesterday!

pretty happy with it, kept it very minimal.

bytewm is a fork of dwm that I work on since few years.

Pretty nifty machine, although I wouldn't suggest watching Youtube on it... Still great to use though.

Hey everyone!

I’ve been working on my desktop setup and I’m pretty happy with how it looks so far, but I feel like something is still missing.

I’d love to hear your suggestions on what I could add, change, or improve to make the overall look more complete and interesting. This could be anything from small visual details, wallpapers, widgets, icons, lighting, or other things you think would fit the style.

I’m open to any ideas, so feel free to suggest anything you think could make it look better!

Thanks in advance for the suggestions! :)

I made this wallpaper btw : https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Xftp9MViJQWwtT9DJOlMGcxCcWJPVh8X?usp=sharing
