Weekly Review Thread for 4/11/21 to 4/24/21
Some quick news before we begin. In the Discord server linked below, one of the developers of Nucleus, Ilyaki, released a new program called ProtoInput. In short, it is an improved version of the code used to hook input for Nucleus, to eventually be integrated into Nucleus. At the moment, it is modular in design, and can be used by itself with the included ProtoInput Host, which is essentially an upgraded Universal Split Screen. In theory it should work for every game Nucleus supports, and it does work for games Nucleus doesn't. Ilyaki released a bunch of profiles he uses for it, and you can find them on the Discord. Feel free to give it a shot!
