Setup Guide

Step 1A: Choose a Drive Letter

This build uses almost all relative paths, so the drive letter does not matter.



Step 1B: Put the Build on the Root of the Drive

For example if you have the build on a drive that is drive letter H the builds paths need to look exactly like this H:\Launchbox and H:\Tools. If this step is not done, the build will not work correctly. This is very important.



Step 2: Mamehooker/Hook Of The Reaper Setup

After installation, open the application and adjust the settings as needed.

  • Click on the Options menu.
  • Select Preferences.
  • Set your desired resolution and audio settings.
  • Click on the Options menu.
  • Select Preferences.
  • Set your desired resolution and audio settings.
