PipBoy Second Screen (Pipboy App)

Recommended Posts

Some of us do have mutiple monitors attached to their computer. There is already an app for Fallout 4 (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bethsoft.falloutcompanionapp) which means the game has to have some sort of API to be able to connect to your game.

 

So why not make an "offline" version for you own computer ?

It should be possible to use it if you're running in borderless window mode. But hey there are probably better ideas to just use mods for every feature it has. Just wanted to throw a quick idea out there on how to use this.

I didn't test it but I know that the app searches the network for running fallout 4 installations. I doubt that local is a valid target. Of course you could probably get it running somehow with some pc wizardry or some changes in the emulation but thats not the kind of stuff I'd aim for. To complicated. It should be just a programm you run beside F4.

 

I'll test the emulation though just to see if it works.

Yeah I noticed that while writing the first post but I still thought it could be viable idea if implemented right. If the game would have an show mousecursor button it could work but I guess it wouldn't be superior to an interface mod or the standart pipboy.

 

the best solution would be to add another viewport on the side of normal one and increase the resolution of the game. But thats really deep engine stuff on directx level.
