Clone Hero

Your chat sabotages your song: they trigger Star Power at the wrong time, ghost-strum, hold every fret and cover the notes with blackouts, curtains and fog.

A GIFT'S JOURNEY

How a gift reaches the game

Four stops, in under a second.

  1. A viewer sends a gift

    From TikTok, Twitch, Kick, YouTube or Starvios: a gift, a follow, likes or a chat command.

  2. OverInteractive

    Receives the event, checks your active profile for the matching effect and sends it.

  3. Clone Hero mod

    The app installs a mod loader (BepInEx) and the OverInteractive mod in the game folder. The mod presses the game's own controls and draws effects on top.

  4. Clone Hero

    The effect lands mid-song and an on-screen notice says who sent it.

STEP BY STEP

Getting started

Everything happens from the game's status bar, at the bottom of the app.

  1. 1

    Locate Clone Hero

    Since it isn't on Steam, press «Set up» in the bar below. The wizard looks for it with «Detect automatically» or you pick the folder that holds Clone Hero.exe with «Choose folder…».

    The wizard checks that the folder is a compatible version. If it says it's not valid, download the current version from clonehero.net.

  2. 2

    Prepare the mod

    With the game closed, in the wizard's «Prepare the mod» step press «Install» on the BepInEx loader and then on the OverInteractive mod. No original file is touched.

  3. 3

    Open Clone Hero

    Press «Launch game» in the wizard or the bar, or open it as usual. The first time after installing it takes longer to start: the loader prepares its files once.

  4. 4

    Wait for «Connected»

    When the game finishes loading, the bar below switches to «Connected». From then on every gift reaches your song.

  5. 5

    Choose what each gift does

    In «Profiles» create an example one in a click or build your own: each gift, follow or chat command fires the effect you pick.

EFFECTS

What your chat can do

Each effect is assigned to a gift, a follow, likes or a chat command.

Your guitar

Forced Star Power, a Ghost Strum that breaks your streak, all five frets held at once (All Frets), whammy and a pause tap mid-song.

Your screen

Blackout, a band that hides the notes (Cover Notes), curtains, letterbox, vignette, fog, strobe, flash and a colour tint.

IMPORTANT

Before you go live

It gets in the way, it doesn't play for you

The mod doesn't read the song: it presses the game's own controls (strum, frets, whammy, Star Power) and draws effects on top. It never hits notes for you.

The first launch is slower

The first time you open the game after installing, the mod loader generates its files and takes much longer than usual. Don't close it: after that it starts as normal.

Fire them while a song plays

Guitar effects are presses of your controls: they matter mid-song. Visual effects show up at any time.

Not on Steam

The app can't find it in your library: the wizard locates it the first time. If you move the game folder, locate it again from the bar below.

FAQ
