FAQ

I installed it and it doesn't work, your plugin sucks. (not a real question)

Did you closely follow the installation video? Did you download the correct version? If the (honest) answer to those questions is 'yes' you can submit an issue and I'll try my best to help you.

Can you create this overlay for me?

Generally the answer is no. I made a tool, which you can use to create your own overlays. If you run into issues with that (after watching the tutorial video for it) feel free to ask me though.

Can you add this feature?

Unless it's very trivial I don't plan on adding anything after 5.0. You can still submit a request, although I can't guarantee anything.

Why doesn't my gamepad work?

First of if you're on windows, your gamepad has to work with XInput (Microsoft's API for gamepads) aka. it has to be an xbox gamepad. If you're using a dualshock you'll have to use a special tool, which mimics an xbox controller (e.g. DS4 Tool, DS4Windows). If you're on linux it should work out of the box, if the mappings are incorrect you can file a bug report and I'll see what I can do.

Does this work on macOS?

Yes and no. The only dependency I use is compatible with macOS, but I can not develop for that platform, since I do not own a device to compile and test this project.

How does this feature work? There's a video explaining (I lied, it's not done yet :P) all current features of 5.0, I encourage you to watch it and if you still have questions feel free to ask me.
