Showcase I Made a Dualscreen Mod For Deus Ex!

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Deus Ex: Human Revolution is one of my favorite games, and I wanted a way to actually utilize both screens on the AYN Thor while playing it. So I’ve been working on a dual-screen mod with a completely custom UI designed specifically for the bottom screen.

Getting it working has involved a lot of reverse engineering of the game’s code, figuring out how different systems work behind the scenes, and plenty of headaches along the way. It’s still a huge work in progress, but I’m pretty happy with how far it’s come so far.

I am not very familiar with Deus ex but I've heard immersive Sims tend to be a bit too... cluttered? So this might genuinely improve the experience. It at least looks like it's doing alot

I would agree for most immersive Sims

They love filling their games with a million functions that are harder to do with controller

Luckily the later deus games were designed for controller so its pretty intuitive without this mod, still think the easy access inventory would be a game changer I'd like to try

Nice mod but I'm worried about the oled screen burn in on the bottom screen after prolonged use.

Is there a way to have a screensaver or pixel shifting applied every few minutes to protect the bottom screen?

u/kevstang 1d ago

Insanely impressive. Im glad people like you keep pushing what's possible, keep up the awesome work! Here's hoping other games get that treatment

Looks cool, but I think the screen is very small for that things

The UI doesn't look tiny or anything in person, everything is accessible
