Description
Just a quick test skin I made a while back and never got around to tidying up until now. It could probably still use some work, but hopefully I set things up and commented well enough for anyone to tweak to their heart's content.Support 1-12 cores (including hyperthreading on the Intel i5/i7 chips). Uses CoreTemp for the temperature readings (which measure per core, not per thread, so ignore hyperthreading for the temperature skin).
Generates the correct number of slices for the number of cores; slices expand as the respective core load increases; slices are greyscale, each with a different color within a given range of values. The colored ring behind shows the average value across all cores, and the color smoothly transitions from green to red (or anything else you may wish to edit in) as the load increases.
Scaleable, with independent radii and number of cores per skin (CPU and Temp).

wonderful skin, thanks! I see you've already stated this is not intended to be a suite, but it would be great if someone was able to make this work with the GPU as well!

p.s. the slice for temp does not work properly for me, one of the slices is a messed up bar that extends beyond the circle and doesn't move, so it appears to be only reading the temp of 3 of my 4 cores and the other core does not display properly...yes i have coretemp working

turns out an i5 is really dual core with 4 threads total, switching the cores in the temp ini file to 2 solved that problem...just posting incase anyone else runs into that isssue as well.... kinda funny that the core load will read 4 cores for my i5 but temp is only 2 cores

this is a great skin, thank you! however one thing I noticed in the Rainmeter log, the skin throws syntax errors for LineStart. I think it's because formulas aren't allowed in LineStart, and the graph.ini has lines like this: LineStart

it isn't pulling temperatures, any idea why? I have the CoreTemp plugin so I can't figure out why it's not showing any value other than 0

Cool! And you can please do the same RAM, SWAP, C: \, D: \, E: \, the Internet. (Download and Upload!) Thank you.

While that sounds like a cool idea, this was meant to be just standalone skins, not a full suite. And also, this is optimized for measuring something on many cores; measuring just RAM for example wouldn't work very well with this structure. You're welcome to mod it and make your own variants if you wish.
