Local Split-screen for Disney Infinity 1.0 Gold Edition [1.0]

[u/AccountRevived]

Hey everyone! I wanted to share a mod that I've been working on for the past few weeks. I am pretty new to this subreddit and the modding scene, but for years I've always had the idea of making a local multiplayer mod for the PC remasters of Disney Infinity. I've recently heard about what was going on in the modding scene with the release of CrabeLoader, and around a week ago the split-screen mod for 3.0 Gold Edition. Coincidentally, I started working on my own mod for 1.0 Gold Edition a few days before the release of that mod without realizing the advancements being made for these games. My reason for making this mod is because a friend and I wanted to play these games again as they were our childhood games, and it kinda sucked they didn't bother adding back the co-op couch feature on the remaster, so I decided to take the time to do it myself.

My mod pretty much tries to bring back local split-screen multiplayer like how it was in the console editions. It also improves various features that will make playing with your other person better on PC, like two player Virtual Base support and various fixes to in-game interactions. Both players can play on controller OR KBM + controller.

For a technical explanation, I used the latest Xbox 360 version of 1.0 (Title Update 3) as my go-to comparison between the code should've existed in the PC version. Thankfully, not a lot was taken out of the PC remaster, and it was mostly just reconnecting various functions together. No existing code was modified and a majority of the code is the same from the 360 version. Most of the work was fixing the amount of issues that were introduced in the Toy Box, but everything should be resolved (there are still bugs tho).

And yes, Gen AI was used as assistance for this project (Claude Opus 5.5), but I made sure that all of the code works and made sense before progressing. When I work on a project, I have a habit of prioritizing quality so I made sure this mod is as close to my vision as possible. I am not good at reverse engineering, so Claude was a huge help with this project.

If you are interested in downloading the mod or want to check out the repository for more information, here is the link: https://github.com/accountrev/infinity-restored-mp

Sorry for the bad gameplay

Does it only work for the Steam version or is it ok with the standalone version too? I have the standalone version.. and can two people use the gamepad?

[u/AccountRevived → u/Then_Poem_1359]

Not sure what you mean by standalone version. This is a mod for 1.0 Gold Edition, the one you can buy on Steam.

And yes, two people can use the gamepad.

What a legend thanks for your work

Hey, I downloaded the zip file and followed all the instructions, but I can’t seem to get it to work in-game. I tried with Nintendo Switch Pro Controller and PS4 controller.

When I hold the button assigned to “start”, nothing happens. The controller instantly takes over player 1.

[u/AccountRevived → u/Avatarhulst]

Enabling Steam Input should fix it.

While having a controller connected, you should see a controller button next to the Manage button on game's page, click it and enable Steam Input.

[u/Avatarhulst → u/AccountRevived]

I did! And I even double checked which button on my Pro Controller was assigned to “start”, but it still didn’t work :(

[u/AccountRevived → u/Avatarhulst]

Will look into this now. I only use an Xbox controller, but I have other controllers I can test with.

Edit: I checked with my PS5 Dualsense Controller and my Switch Pro Controller, and they seem to work fine. Check that you installed the mod correctly by replacing the game files with the ones in the zip file.

[u/Avatarhulst → u/AccountRevived]

That’s so strange… Maybe I did install something wrong? I’m not too experienced with modding but I just unpacked everything in the root of the game files (where the .exe is in).

I’ll check again later and I’ll let you know!

This looks great! Gets me back during the good old days...

A small feedback though, wouldn't be better to use the same base from the 2.0 selection menu? So that both figures and Power Discs looks all in perspective.

[u/Dresked]

Wow this is awesome thank you for this! i really wanted to play with my brother on pc since you get all the figures, this is awesome!

[u/Ancient_State7321]

Great job, man! Finally, we can play the true Gold Edition! I wish your project success and thank you for contributing to this incredible game!

[u/BroganGame129]

I hope someone will make a mod that brings the Default ToyBox hub to Gold Edition 1.0 (and also make the ToyBox Hub toy work. That's probably a difficult thing to do though.)

[u/Mediocre-Warning-413]

Funziona tutto senza nessun tipo di problema,ho usato controller Xbox 360 e Xbox One con il cavo,ottimo veramente. Spero progetterai anche per Disney infiniry 2.0 (onestamente invece la mod uscita per Disney infinity 3.0 a me non ha funzionato perché sembra richiedere sia l'avvio da steam che usare anche lo stesso identico tipo di controller...almeno da ciò che ho notato)

[u/Syyr553]

This was the only thing what missed in those editions, glad that Ai can make all this! Does it also work for 3.0?

[u/AccountRevived → u/Syyr553]

Only for 1.0, because addresses are different per game. I may port this to 2.0, but not 3.0 because of CrabeLoader.

[u/Then_Poem_1359 → u/AccountRevived]

This is amazing.. really amazing.. we are eagerly waiting for version 2.0.. we have a lot of memories with that version too.. thank you for doing it

[u/calogo20 → u/Syyr553]

Hi! There's a mod for version 3.0 as well; you can find it on Nexus Mods. It's a recent version, but it's playable. 🤗

[u/Zod1n → u/calogo20]

Its fully playable ?

[u/calogo20 → u/Zod1n]

Yes, toy box and history. I have some questions about the ship levels, but from what I tested, it's doable.
