[Mod] DualShock 4 icons on PC

[Raymonf]

I heard the PC release didn't show DS4 button prompts. I have no way to confirm that this mod works, other than the pause menu.

This mod works for both Shenmue 1 and 2.

Invalidate these hashes:

• 2a86c2db
• 1323db8c
• 4c5ff333
• 4a1e9a57

To invalidate:

1. Open the TAD file(s) listed below in your hex editor of choice (e.g. HxD), for your Shenmue version.
2. Search for the hashes above as a hex string.
3. Change what is found to something else. For example, you could change the first byte to something like FF. Personally, I add or subtract 1 to the value.
4. Example: 2A -> 2B, 13 -> 14, 4C -> 4D
5. Save the TAD file.
6. Extract the zip file to the root of your game (sm1 or sm2).
7. Play.

Shenmue v1.00 (Launch Version)
common_5b69b0ee.tad

Shenmue 2 v1.00 (Launch Version)
Note: Shenmue 2 has a duplicate common archive. You must do the change to both TAD files.
common_5b69b410.tad
common_5b6162fe.tad

Shenmue v1.01 (Beta)
common_5b7bc90e.tad

Shenmue 2 v1.01 (Beta)
common_5b7bcbc7.tad

Mod works, but i think that LT-RT icons need to be replaced with L2-R2 (or i did something wrong with hex editing )

Oh, okay. I'll check that out later. I don't have a DS4, so I don't know what's what.

I was told the buttons weren't skinned. I added them, but they're a little wonky at this point. Still working on it. Thanks!

Has anyone done a Dreamcast buttons mod yet?

Just a heads up. This mod can be loaded using forklift, without having to do any hex editing.
