I was able to make it work, thanks! The correct plugin is PointBlankX_BepInEx_DemulShooter_Plugin, but there was another issue: a fresh folder of demulshooter 17.5 does not contain the DLL, just the ini. I tried to copy the DLL from a backup and it crashed, so I tried 17.2 and it has everything and everything works! When I have a chance I will also try 17.3 and 17.4 to see if those work too.
Wow, thanks.... Indeed there's an issue with the packed files
I'll need to investigate why it's missing and fix it...sorry 🫤

  • I want to build my own arcade controls!
An update: I was able to use the latest version 17.5 after installing the plugin with 17.2. Now I’m trying to make House of the Dead 4 and special work with demulshooter now. I noticed that the support for those games was recently updated so I am probably missing something. I am using teknoparrot and I tried both elf2 and normal loaders, both with no output. I checked the debug log and it looks like demulshooter is waiting for linuxloader, and it is not hooking. Do I need to pass any parameter for teknoparrot or just what’s on the wiki? Thanks!

EDIT: I think I found it, I was missing a command : -pname=BudgieLoader.exe

Hey argonlefou, I hope you can help me out.  I running 6 bolt's HOTR with  LED Hook strip.  The recoil is hooked butI'm not getting any outputs to my light strips.  I'm pretty sure I have everything configured in HOTR.  I can test the light strips out and send commands to the strips from the HOTR software and they act accordingly.  Just not during games.  I've tried different versions of DS 17.6,.5 and .2 and I'm running the latest version of HOTR.  In JP I have tried with outputs enables and disabled in TP's game settings. 

Here is a debug log.  Any help is appreciated.

I'm not familiar with HOTR and I'm not using it.

I just ran some tests with their tester tool (https://hotr.6bolt.com/pmwiki.php/Tutorial/LGTCPTester) a couple of time.
You can start by using it and see if led outputs are correctly received and logged by that tool program

In the /BepInex/plugins folder, there is an .ini file with a few options that are used by the plugin.
Resolution change is one of these options, although it should not be activated by default.

If you changed the resolution settings, you might try a different one or reset it  to default.
If you did not change it, you can try to enable a custom resolution and set  it.

I think the default resolution rhe game is running  is 1920p

There is no way to remap gun buttons.
Other buttons mapping is also in the .ini file and can be changed

Gun buttons are mapped to the mouse buttons when running the plugin without demulshooter, and then once demulshooter connects to the plugin they are totally controlled bybDemulShooter
