Getting started

Download the latest stable release here.

Prerequisites:

  • Steam must be open. Offline mode is fine, but the program must be started.
  • Antiviruses are disabled. This includes Windows Defender. If you don't want to do that, make sure to whitelist the contents of the practice tool in your antivirus.
  • You have a legitimate copy of the game. Pirated copies will never be supported.

Running the tool

Standalone

  • Extract all files from the zip archive. Anywhere will do.
  • Start Sekiro.
  • Double-click jdsd_sekiro_practice_tool.exe.

The tool will automatically appear over the game. Press 0 to open and close its interface.

Installed

  • Extract all files from the zip archive.
  • Rename jdsd_sekiro_practice_tool.dll to dinput8.dll. Make sure your file extensions are visible to ensure you are naming the file correctly.
  • Copy dinput8.dll and jdsd_sekiro_practice_tool.toml to you Sekiro game folder. The files must be in the same folder as sekiro.exe.
  • Start Sekiro normally.

The tool is now installed. To load it, start the game, press the right shift button and keep it pressed for a few seconds until the tool appears on screen.

If you don't do that, the tool won't load and the game will start normally.

Running the tool on Linux

The tool fully supports Linux and should run on Steam Deck seamlessly.

Standalone

If you want to run the tool in a standalone fashion, I recommend protontricks:

protontricks-launch --appid 814380 jdsd_sekiro_practice_tool.exe

Installed

Follow the same instructions as above. Additionally, you have to set the launch options in Steam as follows:

WINEDLLOVERRIDES="dinput8=n,b" %command%
