How to play Schedule I split screen on PC
Get Nucleus Co-op
Download Nucleus Co-op, free for Windows 10 and 11, and unzip it into its own folder, for example C:\NucleusCo-op. There is no installer.
Keep it out of Program Files, your user folder and OneDrive.
Install the Schedule I handler
In Nucleus Co-op, search the Hub for Schedule I and install its handler, or download the handler file from this page and drop it on the Nucleus window. Then show Nucleus where Schedule I is installed.
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.
Launch and connect
Press Launch: Nucleus opens one copy of Schedule I 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.

IMPORTANT: Start your main game once and make it windowed before trying split screen, also choose an UI Scale that will be good for split screen.
DISABLE ALL OVERLAYS THAT YOU HAVE BEFORE PLAYING, THEY MAY CAUSE PROBLEMS.

Can confirm using Xpadder for 1 controller, then using ReWASD and the Desktop profile for the 2nd controller, and manually mapping keys from https://www.dexerto.com/gaming/all-controls-in-schedule-1-how-to-change-keybinds-3172936/ allows for cozy controller support!! Thanks for the handler. I'm excited to continue playing with my nephew!
how did you get Xpadder to work on win10? wasnt even launching for me
@XXOWENGAMINGXXx_GAMING it's likely running in your Hidden icon tray. Click the Up Arrow to Show Hidden icons > Double-click Xpadder. If that doesn't work, right-click your Xpadder app > Properties > Compatibility > Check the box to Run this program as administrator. If it's still not working, try checking the box to Run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows 8, or bump it down to 7. Should work. Let me know.
