You have the mod installed to mods/dualscreen-master, it had to be mods/dualscreen

Hey,

This is a schook of import.lua that i use. (obvioulsy in an SCD)

http://pastebin.com/gjhiZpYD

what it does is track and save imports and hooks,

so you can hook ANY game function from a mods folder, this includes the lobby, main menu, mods.lua etc,
it also stores all textures and allows you to replace any game texture from a mods folder.

just recreate the path to the file or texture in your mods folder.

The only problem is, that once a file is hooked from a mods folder, it is still hooked even if the mod is disabled. ( you have to disable the mod and restart FA from desktop)
there is no performance hit at all as all files are hooked/replaced from when the game is launched from the desktop.

it does other things also, like for instance, you no longewr have to use long folder paths from mod folders, you can just use the mounted path like

/mods/blah/lua/myfiles/modjunk.lua to /lua/myfiles/modjunk.lua and the path will be found.

this also means you can hook mod lua files also, so you like a mod but there is a bug.. you could make a new mod to hook the mod function and fix it,
obviously both mods would have to be used to apply your fix.. there are many possibilities with this tecnique, but a few draw backs also.

use any of this code you desire if you want it, if you learn from it.. GREAT..

Is it possible for this to work with supreme scoreboard and eco manager? When i use this with SSB or EM, the score board or EM UI don't appear. With SSC, I imagine its because they're both modifying score.lua. No idea what'd be causing the issue with EM.

Hey,

awesome mod! Does exactly what I need!

However: running this mod with UI Party v13 makes my game crash before I even load in.

After that I get a "Fatal Error" box stating this:

Is it possible to run this mod so that the stretched window is borderless?

[betaplayer]

Would this mod work on an ultra widescreen monitor? (2560x1080)

So one can have the experience of having the map on the right-hand side of the screen, and the regular 'game' on the left hand of the screen?
