TabletDriver

This is a low latency graphics tablet driver that is meant to be used with rhythm game osu!

Currently the driver only works when the TabletDriverGUI is running.

The GUI minimizes to system tray / notification area. You can reopen the GUI by double clicking the system tray icon.

Installation

1. You might need to install these libraries, but usually these are already installed:

   • https://www.microsoft.com/net/download/dotnet-framework-runtime
   • https://aka.ms/vs/15/release/vc_redist.x86.exe

2. Unzip the driver to a folder (Shorter path is recommended, for example C:\Temp\TabletDriver)

3. Uninstall all other tablet drivers. If you have problems with uninstalling the Wacom drivers, check the GitHub issue #1

4. Run install_vmulti_driver.bat. It might need a restart if there is another vmulti driver installed.

5. If you have Huion or Gaomon tablet, you need to run install_huion_64.bat, which is in the driver_huion directory.

6. Start the TabletDriverGUI.exe

Updating to a new version

1. Unzip the new version
2. Start the TabletDriverGUI.exe

Uninstallation

1. Uncheck the "Run at Windows startup" option in the GUI.
2. Run remove_vmulti_driver.bat
3. Run remove_huion_64.bat, which is in the driver_huion directory.
