Totally Legit Arcade Controller (TLAC)
ELAC's reborn big brother
Description
This program consists of three parts:
Prepatch:
Used for applying the static patches from the patch.txt file to allow the game to successfully boot past all startup checks.
Divahook:
Installs a hook on the game's update routine to update its components.
TLAC:
Injects the divahook dll inside the game's process.
Components
The available components can be toggled inside the components.ini config file. Currently available are:
- input_emulator
- touch_slider_emulator
- touch_panel_emulator
- sys_timer
- player_data_manager
- frame_rate_manager
- stage_manager
- fast_loader
- camera_controller
- debug_component
Controls
Input bindings can be set inside the keyconfig.ini config file. Currently supported are keyboard and DualShock 4 controller input.
Key and button names are listed inside this config.
Player Data
If enabled the PlayerDataManager writes constant values from the playerdata.ini config file to the game's memory.
This allows the user to set their player name, a level plate ID to be shown during the song select, equip a skin to be loaded during gameplay and button / slide sounds to be applied to all songs played.
This config file must be encoded using UTF-8.
Debug Component
This component enables diva's internal dw_gui and makes the hidden DATA_TESTs accessible. The current game state can be changed using the F4 - F8 keys with F6 being a recreation of the original DATA_TEST_MAIN inside the console which can be controlled using the up / down arrow + enter key.
Usage
First once per update patch a clean diva.exe using the prepatch.exe program by passing the diva.exe path to it as its first command line argument; This can be done by dragging the diva executable on top of the prepatch executable inside the windows file explorer. It is strongly recommended to always create a backup of the original diva executable first.
To start diva run diva.exe like normal, to enable the components start tlac.exe while diva is running.
Do this every time you wish to run diva.
Diva has a few notable command line arguments including -w to start in windowed mode and -hdtv1080 to increase the resolution to 1920x1080.
