Touch controls for Joiplay (ex SWM - Mouse mod) [E19.5] (beta)

[Waynolt]

Hi!
This mod adds mouse support to Pokémon Reborn, originally from Episode 18, now updated for Joiplay’s touch interface.

It’s a massive mod, so occasional bugs or conflicts may arise and are not easy to anticipate.

 

All feedback is welcome, especially:

• Bugs or incompatibilities
• Experimental control bar usefulness outside of map exploration
• Opinions on the navigation system (I feel that the old "walk to the clicked cell" system worked better than the new "walk in the touched direction" - what do you think?)

 

 

Installation

Drop the contents of this link into the folder "[Pokemon Reborn]\patch\Mods\"
https://github.com/Waynolt/SWM-modular-modpack/tree/master/experimental_aka_sometimes_i_hate_myself

The first time you run it, it will ask for some initialization - just follow the instructions. It's a one-time operation that is needed to fix a few quirks with how Joiplay tracks touch input.

 

How to use

IMPORTANT!

• This mod is very complex and very big. Keep multiple backups of your save file!
• Make sure you disable the Joiplay overlay! Use the arrow at the bottom of the screen to hide it - the overlay prevents touch input from actually reaching the game, making this mod useless.

 

Besides that, just poke around - most interface elements should now respond to touch or mouse input.

Touching outside of the game area brings up a control bar - it's an experimental feature to replace Joiplay's overlay.

For the moment, when the control bar is visible every other touch input is disabled.

 

 

Known bugs

• The savegame selection submenu is not integrated in the system
• The selected avatar in the ticket scene at the start of the game does not properly animate
• The pokemart menu is not fully functional

 

 

Compatibility with other mods

I honestly have no idea. It might even be compatible!

Please let me know if you use this with other mods and if it works.
