Original design by @Mordasius and the "Rusty Plates and Pipes - a Steampunk HUD" widgets for Rainmeter (permission taken)
http://mordasius.deviantart.com/art/Rus ... -533819643

This cool Steampunk pack contains *12 widgets* (11 port from the original+1 by me).

Wallpaper Frame: Was intended for use on a 1920x1080 display. But since my laptop where I made all these has 1366x768 max resolution, I created 2 "Wallpaper Frame" widgets for both sizes. For the smaller resolutions you can use the default XWidget zoom option. It's a trasparent frame so you can add your own wallpaper behind.

System Dock: Changed to full system control- Shutdown, Restart, Sleep, Logout, Lock Workstation, TimeDate Settings, RecycleBin.

Cpu: Mouse over the analog meter for Info. Click over the chart to open the Task MAnager.

Volume/Memory: Widget that combines the volume control and the Memory (ram and swap) usage.
I replaced the spectrum analyzer (you can created with an advanced js code but is too complicated to me) with a virtual equalizer that will show during play. Use the progressbar to change the volume and button to switch on/off mute.
Mouse over the vertical progressbars for RAM and SWAP to see the info.

Music Player: During playback click on the cover to directly Add Song(s).
Right click for Settings/Select player, search cover tool, edit music tags, stop player, add song(s)
Use the buttons for Show/Hide Player, Close player.
Mouse over the title of the song from more info.

Hard Disk(s): Analog meters for 4 disk drives: C,D,E,F.
The "cap" will be removed when the driver is available/connected.
Mouse over on each meter to show the details, click on to open it, right click to change its name/settings.
Use the button on the bottom-left to switch on/off the light indicators:
Values (%): 0-39 Green, 40-75 Yellow, 76-100 Red

Network: Download/Upload speed meters, ip info. Click on the charts to open the Downloads folder.

System Meters: Extra widget made by me that shows 4 analog meters for Hard Disk, RAM, SWAP, BATTERY.
Mouse over the meters for the info.

Weather: Current, tomorrow conditions and 3-day-forecast. Also analog meters for Temperature, Humidity/pressure and Wind.
Supports only Celsius units.
Mouse over the weather icon for more info, click on to open the weather details window.
Use the button to show/hide the forecast panel.
Right click for Update Weather, Weather Info, Change Location.

RSS Feeds x2: Two styles with 5 different famous RSS Feeds. Use the buttons to navigate through the feed pages.
Click on each title to open the corrisponding webpage.
Right click on each feed's name for the Settings/Edit.
EXTRA
Style 1: Right click for Refresh all the feeds.
Style 2: Use the button to Refresh all the feeds and close the reader.


--NOTE--
For the XWidget version of the widgets, I had to make some micro-changes to match with the XWidget design and functions.
I know that with the javascript can create a lot more, but I'm not so expert on this. I did my best and I think that the result is pretty awesome! :D

I thought it was just a dark picture but after trying the widgets they are all very dark. I understand it's the "look" but too dark to be usable for me.
Just giving constructive feedback. U know I love your work

It's the rusty look. With a lighter wallpaper behind maybe the things will be better for you.. Anyway. I know that you always support my work! :)
