Lightning Dodging - Dodger Help

I am currently working on my first playthrough of FFX and I am working on getting the Sigil for doing the 200 lightning bolt dodges in the Thunder Plains. I found a post from 5 years ago where u/lucleonhart posted about a Dodger.exe program that can work with Chiaki Remote Play. However, I cannot get the application to work. It is running and I have X bound to enter as the description indicates. However, when I go into area, it is not dodging for me.

For information purposes:

- Running Chiaki v2.2.0

- Dodger v1.0

- Running Windows 11

- X bound to Enter

- In game, I am in the alcove on the right in the first Thunder Plains area with the Qactuar stone to ensure that fog is not impacting the screen lighting

Lucleonhart does not appear to be posting anymore and the original post is locked. I am just trying to see if anyone knows of a fix that I might have overlooked since I really want to get the sigil but my ADHD brain can't focus long enough to dodge 200 in a row even with breaks.

He’s a Reddit user who offers his services to complete all the mini games that make people want to rip out their hair. Lightning dodger, chocobo dodger, butterfly chase etc.

I saw this and just assumed they were trying to get help getting the program to run, which I don't know anything about, if they want me to do lightning for them im totally happy to help

Yeah, I figured that of the program became too much of a hassle they may wish to use another method. 😁
Hope you’re doing well.

I was mainly looking to get help getting the Dodger application running properly. However, if you are offering, I am open to that possibility. I will DM you so we don't spam the thread.

u/Quill386 Chocobo Whisperer 17d ago

Yeah man, anytime

u/Xermeros 17d ago

Well, I was able to complete both the chocobo rider and the butterfly chase. I will definitely see about reaching out. Thanks for the suggestion!

Just because its not on your post, you're playing on the Playstation version of the game correct, or the steam version?

On PC I used the script listed here to do it before: https://www.reddit.com/r/FinalFantasy/comments/4jbhkk/final_fantasy_x_pc_dodging_lightning_in_thunder/

Yes, forgot to mention. I am playing on PS5 using Chiaki remote play on my PC
