  3. Take a seat

    Each player presses a button on their own controller to join and takes a spot on the screen. Pick a layout that fits your players.

    Playing with several keyboards and mice? Press End once everything is in place to give each window its own cursor.

  4. Launch and connect

    Press Launch: Nucleus opens one copy of Gunfire Reborn per player and lays the windows out on your screen. Then link them in game, usually one player hosts a LAN or online session and the others join it. The handler notes say how.

Handler notes

  • CLOSE Steam completely before running this. Only working with the latest legit Steam version of the game, you need the og steam_api64.dll.

  • Split-screen setup guide.

  • Complete the tutorial per instance. To connect the instances use the invite overlay (left shift+tab) to invite the other players with your main mouse cursor, left click on the window with your mouse if the cursor gets stuck, the invite overlay also appears when you select the + icon in the lobby, open it in the first instance only, alt-tab to or click on the first instance and invite by right clicking the players names and they will join automatically. If the overlay does not show make sure you disable any external overlay apps that could be interfering. You can also copy the lobby code to the clipboard and in the other instances open the field where you can paste that code to join using ctrl+v, alt-tab between the instances to do this.

  • If you use keyboards/mice after all the instances have launched, resized and positioned correctly, press the END key once to lock the input for all instances to have their own cursor, you need to left click each mouse to make the emulated cursors appear after locking the input. Press the escape key or start if the cursors stay visible in-game, press the right stick if the gamepad cursor click does not work. Press the END key again to unlock the input when you finish playing. You can also use CTRL+Q to close Nucleus and all its instances when the input is unlocked.
