Bugle Hero

Play the in-game bugle using a connected MIDI device.

Example: https://youtu.be/8ZpSbefGZDA

Features

• Control the bugle using MIDI input (keyboard, MIDI player, etc.)
• Single-note output (no polyphony)
• Automatic MIDI channel detection (configurable if needed, hopefully it works)

⚠️ Early Development Notice

I made this mod in maybe 8 hours or so because I was disappointed there wasn’t already one that did this.
Immediately afterward, I became bedridden, but wanted to upload it so others could use it. This means it may still be riddled with bugs and is very much in early progress.

Bugs & Feedback

Found a bug or have a suggestion?
Please open an issue on the GitHub repository: Bugle Hero Issues

How It Works

• Listens for MIDI note events and maps them to the bugle’s pitch controls
• Does a best attempt to transpose notes within playable range (from my testing anywhere inbetween roughly C4-C6)
• Supports both local and multiplayer use (or at least, it should)
• Optional MIDI channel override in the configuration file (hopefully this works)

Installation

1. Install BepInEx for PEAK
2. Download Bugle Hero from Thunderstore
3. Extract to the PEAK/BepInEx/plugins folder

Usage

• Equip the bugle in-game
• Play notes on your MIDI device to produce bugle sounds
• Only one note will play at a time (latest note overrides previous)
• If auto MIDI detection fails, set your MIDI channel in:

PEAK/BepInEx/config/BugleHero.cfg

Limitations

• Does not work on linux
• No chord/polyphonic playback
• MIDI channel config is untested
• May behave unexpectedly with multiple connected MIDI devices

0.2.0

• Hopefully fixed an issue where notes would sometimes get stuck playing infinitely if interrupted until a new note was played.

0.1.1

• Accidentally uploaded the first time under the wrong version! Plus some fixes and changes to readme

0.0.1

• Initial early release! Still lots to fix with this, but it is in a workable state. I will likely be taking more rest now.
