== Step 1: Run Setup.exe == Run Setup.exe and go through the installation process. This installs dependencies (like DirectX) and sets paths for MAMEHooker based on its location, since MAMEHooker has trouble using relative paths.

=== Step 1.a Choose a Drive Letter === This build uses almost all relative paths, so the drive letter does not matter. Choose a drive letter or use the drive letter that Windows assigned to the drive.
=== Step 1.b Place The Build On Root Of Your Drive === If your build is on drive H: for example the paths should look exactly as they do below.
H:\Launchbox H:\Tools
If this step is skipped, the build will not work correctly. This is very important.
== Step 2: Mamehooker/Hook Of The Reaper Setup ==
=== Step 2.a Com Port Setup === Set COM Ports For All Players Based On Gun Type Using The COM Port Assignment List below. * Open Device Manager * Expand Ports (COM & LPT) * Right-click each device → Properties → Port Settings → Advanced * Assign COM ports as follows: * If you have trouble finding what your player 1 and player 2 gun is under the (COM & LPT) section unplugged the guns and plug them in one by one the correct device should disappear and reappear.
COM Port Assignment List ; OpenFire : Gun 1 → COM1 : Gun 2 → COM2 ; Blancom : Gun 1 → COM1 : Gun 2 → COM2 ; Gun4IR : Gun 1 → COM1 : Gun 2 → COM2 ; XGunner : Gun 1 → COM1 : Gun 2 → COM2 ; MX24 : Gun 1 & 2 → COM5 (Hub) ; RS3 Reaper : Hub → COM5 : Gun 1 → COM6 : Gun 2 → COM7 : Gun 3 → COM8 : Gun 4 → COM9 : Turn off recoil switch (set slider to the middle)
