First Descendant Notice Skipper

Purpose

This will update a config file, so the app won't show the notice popup when you open the app.

Why

When you try to stream TFD via steam link, the popup windows don't react very well.

Workaround?

There is one, switch to touch controls only, disable keyboard / mouse, open TFD, use touch controls to skip the dialogs. Then exit the game and re-start with K&M.

Usage

You need to do three things

Compile the app

From the main directory do the following

  1. pip install pyinstaller
  2. pyinstaller --onefile update_date.py

Create the config

Now enter the /dist folder and create a new file "config.json"

The content of the JSON file should resemble this:

{"ini": "C:\Users\%YOUR_USER_NAME%\AppData\Local\M1\Saved\Config\Windows\ToyPreferences.ini"}

Add it to Steam

From inside steam choose "Games" > "Add a non-steamm game to my library..."

Choose the update_date.exe that was created in the dist folder.

Right click on the main in your steam list and rename it to something you would remember like "The First Descendant Skip"

Other Utilities

Because TFD is sort of buggy over Steam Link I have added two extra programs that will allow you to change your window configuration, since TFD likes to popup in a window that isn't visible.

To build them

pyinstaller --onefile extend_display.py

pyinstaller --onefile internal_display.py

Add them to steam

Then add both exes to steam as show earlier.

  • extend_display.exe will enable multi-monitor.
  • internal_display.exe will force one screen.
