Installing

Installing

1. Close the game.
2. Extract the release zip into the game folder, next to MBTL.exe. It holds two files: dinput8.dll is the mod, and MBTLIMUpdater.exe installs later versions. The mod works without the updater.
3. Start the game normally.

The first launch creates MBTL-IM\MBTL_IM.ini, MBTL-IM\Logs and MBTL-IM\Mods if they are missing.

Updating

When a newer release is out, the mod opens a window saying so. Update now downloads it, checks it against the release checksum, closes the game, swaps the files and starts the game again through Steam. The previous files are kept in MBTL-IM\Updater\backups, and MBTL-IM\Updater\logs\updater.log says what happened.

Turn the check off with Check for updates on start under Config, or [Mod] CheckForUpdates = 0.

Linux and Proton

Add WINEDLLOVERRIDES="dinput8=n,b" %command% to the game's launch options, or rename dinput8.dll to d3d9.dll. Keep only one of the two names in the folder.

The game's "Assertion failed" dialogs, which Proton cannot get past, never open with the mod installed. The mod skips them the way Ignore does on Windows and writes each one to MBTL-IM\Logs.

Uninstalling

Delete dinput8.dll. The MBTL-IM folder can stay; the game ignores it without the dll.
