DLL-based DeskScapes support still?

I asked this in the Discord too but it seems kinda dead there, so - back in the day (2012 or so) I did some Deskscapes dev with the live backgrounds (DLL-based, not animations). Was rummaging through some old code and got reminded of it; can anyone tell me if that part of Deskscapes is still supported? Kinda itching to do some dev again...

Yes that all works.  It is limited to DX9Ex though you can interop DX11 and just blt the final results to DX9EX if you want from say DX11.

We have some new stuff in this area coming soon so you might want to wait for that as I think it might be of interest to you.

Awesome, good timing! If I had my druthers, I'd ask for support for multiple displays in a coherent way, so we could stretch one big surface over the whole desktop even if it's not a rectangle (I happen to have an unorthodox layout personally and am entirely selfish). I'll keep an eye out!
