Haha I see  :D

Well...I used Middle-Click because it's available on my LightGun but I'm aware it can not be practical for everyone (escpecially for those who don't have any other buttons than the trigger)
That beeing said, as the game needs to be set up to keyboard control for P1 and P2, I'm pretty sure a simple Autohotkey script can convert almost any button (aimtrack buttons or click or keyboard or IPAC etc....) to send the correct key for LEFT or RIGHT.

argonlefou, I have to wonder for Blue Estate, if you're having a problem getting the second player in to hook maybe you could try using x360kb or x360ce to trick it into thinking a 360 pad is connected? It's what I use for games that could only do 2 player with 360 pads (I have a jpac/ipac interface.) You can create 1-4 gamepads mapped off of a keyboard (or directinput gamepad with x360ce). Maybe just enough to trick 2p to start?

I have a couple of DualShock working on my cab and a driver emulating them as X360 controller, that's how I could test Blue Estate with a 2nd player

But I didn't know of this method with x360kb.ini ! Thanks for the tip ! :)
Unfortunately after a quick test I could not make Blue estate to recognize anything :(
From what I got in x360kb log :
- If I set "Background" to "0", driver fails to load
- If I set "Background" to "1", driver is loading fine but Blue Estate  is crashing....:(

A way I didn't go into, is to create a virtual system-wide HID gamepad with Vjoy and then install full x360ce software to make the Vjoy act as a real x360 controller....and then feed Vjoy with Demulshooter to simulate inputs when blue estate ask for activity on the choosen P2 controller to mount it (Yeah, you can't just simply choose your controllers....you have to let the game detect which one is moving to affect it to P2 before a level is started   :banghead:)
But... idea is to keep DemulShooter as user friendly as possible and this kind of method is way too complicated for that(that's my though). Moreover it depends on many other app/drivers :(
 
I guess I'll look into it anyway, someday.... just because I'm curious to see if this can work

Thanks again for such an amazing piece of software! I am having a bit of trouble on HOTD3 for Windows. I installed it, use the AHK code to bypass the launcher, set both players to Keyboard, and have Demulshooter in the same directory as hod3pc.exe. When the game starts, I see two independent "ghoul" cursors on the main menu, but once the game starts, the guns are not responsive. Only keypresses work.
When I did a -v option, here is what I have in my debug.txt.

It seems to be looking for a config.ini, which I dont see in my HOTD3 hierarchy. Any ideas?

Thanks!
argonlefou:
The config.ini file is created by DemulShooter when you launch it as a GUI to select guns for P1 and P2
The file is created in the same forlder than DemulShooter

Here all is working finz with the game, but as the ini file is missing DemulShooter has no usb device to use as gun
Make sure you have the memory data folder copied too
