UPDATE: Universal Split Screen has been superseded by Proto Input, which is part of Nucleus Co-Op. Please use it instead of Universal Split Screen

Update by @VirtualRakoon:

• Added a menu to quickly move and resize the selected window based on the most common splitscreen setups.
• Added new tab for window positioning and moved there other window related buttons.
• Added json to run the mmo "Rift".
• Added option to place the mouse in the middle of the screen (required by Rift).
• Added option to send fake window activation message only at the start of a splitscreen session (needed by Rift).

If you are updating from an older version, you can extract the new version into a different location. You may want to copy your presets over from the Config directory.

Changelog

• Added a start up hook to disguise mutexes, events and semaphores of games from other instances without killing the handles.

• Fixed start up hooks crashing in some games.

• Added a hook for the hidden XinputGetStateEx call used by some games. (Notably Divinity Original Sin 2 and some Unity Engine games).

• Added a utility to modify the APPDATA and USERPROFILE environment variables. Effectively this allows you make each instance of a game use a different folder in AppData and in your user folder (e.g. Documents).

  • As the GoldBerg Emulator saves in AppData, this allows you to easily manage multiple accounts and save folders without manually editing the config files.

• Improved the Send raw input keyboard input to handle games that use a hidden window called DIEmWin for input events. (e.g. Halo CE).

• Fixed some crashing with out of bounds errors.

If you are updating from 1.0.0, you can extract the new version into a different location. You may want to copy your presets over from the Config directory.

Changelog:

• Added startup hooks. These hooks are injected before a process runs, so are used for hooks that need to change the startup behaviour of a game.

  • FindWindow hook: This will prevent a game detecting if another instance's window already exists.
  • DirectInput hook: Hooks the DirectInput API which is used for controller input by most old games.

• Added a DirectInput to XInput translation hook. Most games use XInput for controller input, but it is limited to a maximum of 4 controllers. DirectInput doesn't have a controller limit, so this hook allows you to use more than 4 controllers.

  • DirectInput doesn't support input from both triggers simultaneously, so you may have to configure your controls accordingly.

• Fixed modifier keys (e.g. Shift/Ctrl/Alt) not working in Minecraft and some other games.

• Fixed crashing on Windows 7 due to xinput1_4.dll missing and Visual C++ redistributables.

• Added option to autofill the handle name in the handle unlocker.

• Added option to unlock multiple handles at a time by separating with 5 and symbols: &&&&&

• Added utility for quickly editing the Goldberg Emulator account name and Steam ID.

• Added a GetKeyboardState hook to fix some games listening to input from multiple keyboards.

• Toggle window borders will now completely trim the window borders.

• Improved sending Windows activate messages for some games.

• Improved presets for Goldsrc games (e.g. Half-Life and Sven Co-op).

• Fixed the GetForegroundWindow hook crashing some games.

• Improved the GetForegroundWindow hook with more compatibility.

• Improved the GetKeyState hook by hooking all keys.

• Fixed being able to accidentally open the start menu by one keyboard pressing Ctrl and the other Esc.

• Improved Raw input filter by faking window focus within the input.

• Added automatic update checking at start up. (Can be turned off in the About page).
