Installation

VampireGamepad.vtm

VampireGamepad.ini

\bin\loader\

Steam Deck / Proton

Use the following Steam launch option:

WINEDLLOVERRIDES="dbghelp=n,b" %command% -game Unofficial_Patch

If the mod suddenly stops loading after verifying game files or updating the game, restore or reinstall the Unofficial Patch files, as Steam may replace the modified

dbghelp.dllused by the patch loader.

Configuration

Controls, deadzones, mouse sensitivity, long-press timing and virtual keyboard settings can be changed in:

VampireGamepad.ini

Special thanks to the developers of the Unofficial Patch and its Game Mod Loader. VampireGamepad was made possible by the

vtm plugin system included with the patch.
