How to Install

Windows

First, you must install the ViGEmBus driver. This is necessary for the controller emulation to function.

Then download and run the OverBind_[version]_x64-setup.exe file for the OverBind windows installer.

Linux

The following are the recommended instructions for setting up the appropriate permissions to allow OverBind to access your input device.

1. Create file /etc/udev/rules.d/99-uinput.rules
2. Paste contents into file KERNEL=="uinput", GROUP="input", MODE="0660". This grants permission to read and write to your input devices to anyone in the "input" group.
3. Run command sudo usermod -aG input $(whoami). This adds the current user to the input group.
4. Restart computer
5. Set your device in the overbind settings in the "Input Devices" dropdown.

How to install Text Masher Overlays

You must have a text masher overlay enabled to be able to use the text masher. You will know that the overlay is active if you see the masher icon in the top left corner of the screen.

Windows

Download and place the d3d11.dll file in the same folder as your hollow_knight.exe.

Linux

1. Download the libmasher_linux.so file. You can place this file anywhere, just be sure you know the path to the file.
2. Set the LD_PRELOAD to point to the path. You can do this by prepending LD_PRELOAD=/path/to/libmasher_linux.so to the launch command for hollow knight. If you are running HK in steam this means you can add this to the "launch options" in the game settings: LD_PRELOAD=/path/to/libmasher_linux.so %command%
3. You also need to grant OverBind permission to run the commands needed to read game memory. To do this you can run sudo setcap cap_sys_ptrace=eip /path/to/OverBind. If you're installing with the .deb your path is likely /usr/bin/OverBind. Otherwise it's the path to your AppImage.
