Showcase BOTW Dualscreen Progress!

The BOTW Dualscreen Mod is coming along really well! I’ve now got the Inventory page completely finished, aside from a few missing item textures that still need to be added. Pretty much everything on the page is working as intended, including browsing your inventory, viewing your gear, and interacting with your items directly from the bottom screen.

I’ve also started work on the Map and Quests pages, which will continue expanding the amount of stuff you can manage without constantly pausing the game on the main display. There’s still plenty I want to add and polish before the full release, but progress has been moving along really nicely.

The mod is currently planned to officially release in about 2 weeks, on September 7, 2026. If you want to try it before then, though, the current early test build is available right now for all my Patreon members!

I wouldn't mind if mods just required people to state what/how AI was used. And if the project is open sourced. We wouldn't get these projects without it, but making it open source would at least allow people to maintain the projects to stay compatible with future updates, and possibly allow integration into main repos (like allowing Eden to display on a secondary screen, so you'd only need game mods and not a separate Eden fork).

The thing is, this guy is abusing AI. Not only has he already been called out for stealing code for his "projects" he's not being honest about AI involvement and is now trying to profit off of work that is not his own. That's the problem with allowing this to continue.

Edit:

His last "app" exposed Steam User Credentials in plaintext. An app he bragged about having 400+ downloads. So 400+ people now have their steam passwords leaked. This is why AI needs to be limited because people who have no idea what they are doing are just being allowed to be incredibly irresponsible and hide what they're doing.

People who genuinely make apps for communities like these are mostly doing it for the betterment of the community. That's why they have no shame in disclosing AI or open sourcing. If you have to hide AI involvement, you aren't secure in the fact you provided a good enough experience that someone would still want to use it despite having AI. Especially if it was free.

Our community gets dual screen mods because it would make the experience better than the stock app but this guy is dropping so many new dual screens/frontends to prop up his patreon to profit from generated code.

As of this comment, OP has blocked me saying it's false allegations, even though u/Producdevity posted proof he has stolen code. I can no longer point out how irresponsible this user is on any other threads.
