  • Can I use my tablet for playing osu! and drawing?

    - Install and follow instructions from WindowsInk's wiki
  • Tablet and Pen

    There is a plugin for that, however it is highly unlikely that you will be able to get any usable pressure data out of that pen, since the tablet is expecting a different pen for that. But if you want to try, you need to download this version of the driver and follow these instructions. Almost certainly won't work due to having the wrong pen, but worth a shot.

  • Pen tip pressure on OpenTabletDriver?
    3 projects | /r/osugame | 10 Oct 2021
    I tried the Windows Ink plugin guide from https://github.com/X9VoiD/VoiDPlugins/wiki/WindowsInk but the Windows Ink Absolute/Relative modes fail to work, and with Devocub Antichatter OTD gets a fatal error and has to restart.

    Could possibly be an issue with WindowsInk, making your tablet only work as a normal mouse. Make sure whatever program you are trying to use has WindowsInk set as its pressure protocol, if that is something you are able to change in settings. Also, don't use Hawku drivers. They haven't been updated in 3 years and have slowly become more and more broken with each Windows update to the point that a lot of things are just completely unusable in them. If you want something lightweight and open-source that is actively maintained and updated, there is OpenTabletDriver. Although do note that this doesn't have WindowsInk installed by default, and you have to download a plugin for the driver and follow some instructions to get pressure to work. There is also a dubugger for your tablet so you can see if it is the pen that is causing the pressure issue, but I doubt a pen would die in such a way that you'd only have full pressure or none.
  • Pen pressing while hovering

    You'll also need to install windowsink mode if you are on windows and want to use pen pressure. The plugin should be under plugins>plugin manager, and there are instructions linked on the plugin page or here. Takes a little bit to set up properly, but their Discord server that is linked on the Github page tends to be pretty helpful with stuff.
  • Tablet Drivers on Linux

    Use it. OTD have a plugin called Reconstructor, which reverses the smoothing algorithm applied by the hardware. Just follow instructions and read wiki for installation of OTD and its plugins.
