Patched executable

Due to the game being updated very frequently and me needing to repeat the patching process every time it does, I decided to only update the mod when the hotifxes after major updates stop coming out. The current version of the patched executable is 1.06c.

Download link:

1. After downloading the archive, unpack it's content into Bin/x64/ inside of your SM installation
2. Run "SamSM_Unrestricted_SScreen.exe"
3. Go in Singleplayer, select the level, set everything up and return to main menu.
4. Go in "Extras" menu and you'll see "Split Screen" there.

Afterword + some useful commands

This is done with a very invasive method and i really wish there was a better way to do this. Any sort of visual glitches that might appear here i most likely can't fix, and not to mention that both this and 4 were never optimized nor intended to run in this game type (though, I noticed that the performance is somewhat better than in SS4's split-screen).

prj_bEmulateTouchEvents=1 - lets you move the view of one of the users with the mouse men_bSplitScreenInputDeviceSharing=1 - use to bind one input device to multiple split screen profiles

does this work with newest version of SM?

Yeah that's because I forgot to update it to 1.04

works ok if you select beta version v1.0.1(or v1.0.2? I don't remember, the newest one before this was released), but kind of annoying you have to do that

Game instantly crashes after trying to open the file "SamSM_Unrestricted_SScreen.exe", is it beause this is not updated?
