Setting Up GameMaker

Download the latest release of the extension.

In GameMaker, open an existing project or create a new one. Next add the extension to the project and configure paths in the Extension Options:

The Windows SDK should be set to the correct relative folder path: ../interhaptics_sdk/interhaptics_windows.

If you have access to the DualSense provider, you can set the path under DualSense Provider. This pust must be set to the directory that contains the DLL files.

If you are developing for PS5, the PS5 Interhaptics SDK should be set to the path where you installed the SDK. The PS5 Interhaptics VS should be set to the directory that contains the Visual Studio solution (*.sln) file.
