How To Use

Connect to LiveSplit

  1. Launch Splitnotes.exe
  2. Launch LiveSplit
  3. Go to "Edit Layout" -> "+" -> "Control" -> "LiveSplit Server". Hit ok. (Let the server use the default port: 16834)
  4. In LiveSplit, select "Control" -> "Start Server".
  5. SplitNotes should now be connected to LiveSplit. If connection is active the Icon for SplitNotes is green.

Format your notes
It is recommended to use a .txt file to store your notes.
Note files should be formatted as following:

  • Normal text is treated as notes
  • New Line means notes for a specific split is over.
  • Text in bracket ([some text]) is ignored from notes, this could be used to write down titles or other comments to keep the note file tidy.

Example:

[Split1]
these are some notes for split 1.

These are some notes for split2.
As you can see a title in brackets is not neccesary.
A simple new line is enough to separate notes for different splits.

Also som notes for split 3.
You don't have to [ worry abut using brackets [ in the middle of a row].

Load Notes

  1. Right-Click in SplitNotes and select "Load Notes".
  2. Choose your text file.
  3. Make sure that notes for the right amount of splits have been loaded.
