This is a my modified version of hawku's tablet driver.
Intended for Wacom tablets but will work with other tablets but not expect everything to work correct.
Comparison with original, added:
- Antichatter
- Prediction
- Mouse Wheel
- If you have already Driver installed just: close it, and unzip new version with replacing files. Your config will be preserved. Same for updating.
If you have not installed the driver then:
follow instructions here: https://github.com/Devocub/TabletDriver#installation and after return to step 1.
My version based on 0.1.5 version of driver.

Antichatter feature is meant to prevent cursor chattering/rattling/shaking/trembling when it's almost doesn't moves and/or too high to prevent tablet noise.
Antichatter in it's primary form is useful for tablets which doesn't have any smoothing (including hardware smoothing).
Antichatter requires smoothing filter enabled for work. Latency and Rate values do affect on antichatter settings.
Formula for smoothing is:
y(x) = (x + OffsetX)^(Strength*-1)*Multiplier+OffsetY
Where x is pen speed. And y(x) is value on which smoothing will be increased. Slower speed - more smoothing. Faster speed - less smoothing.

Strength, Multiplier, OffsetX and OffsetY is values which you can change in driver.
Strength: is strength, useful values are from 1 up to 10. Higher values make smoothing more sharper, lower are smoother.
Multiplier: zoomIns and zoomOuts the plot. Useful values are from 1 up to 1000. Makes smoothing softer. Default value is 1, means nothing changed.
Offset X: Moves the plot to the right. Negative values moves the plot to the left. Higher values make smoothing weaker, lower values stornger and activate stronger smoothing earlier (in terms of cursor speed). Useful values are from -1 to 2. Default values is 0.
Offset Y: Moves the plot up. Useful values are from roughly -1 up to 10. Look at the plot, if strength of smoothing is near 0 then it provides almost raw data with lowest delay. If value is near 1 then it's usual smoothing. Also it defines minimal amount of smoothing. OffsetY 10 will make smoothing x10 (and latency). OffsetY 0.5 will make smoothing roughly twice weaker (and latency will be roughly twice less), 0.3 roughly triple weaker, etc. Default value is 1.
Simple: Latency 5-50 ms, Strength 2-3, Multiplier 1, OffsetX 0, OffsetY 1.

Smooth: Latency ~10 ms, Strength 3, Multiplier 100, OffsetX 1.5, OffsetY 1.
Change OffsetX between 0-2 to switch between stickyness and smooth.
Increase Strength to 4-10 to get more sharp. Decrease Strength to 1-2 to get more smoothing.
Interactive link
Straight: Latency 20-40ms, Strength 20, Multiplier 1, OffsetX 0.7, OffsetY 0.6. This preset aren't good for high hovering. Because of OffsetY < 1 actual latency is less.
Interactive link
Low latency: Set Offset Y to 0 (and could be useful to set Latency to 1-10 ms but with some settings it can break smoothing, usually OffsetY 0 is enough) to being able to go to lowest latency.
How it works: It adds a predicted point to smoothing algoritm. It helps to preserve sharpness of movement, help with small movements.
Low values (~<10-15ms) of smoothing latency can cause problems for cursor movement. It's very preffered to use at least 10-15ms of smoothing latency, 20-40 ms is even better and recommended. In sum cursor can even outdistance real position (similar to Wacom 6.3.9w5 drivers).
Formula for prediction is:
y(x) = 1/cosh((x-OffsetX)*Sharpness)*Strength+OffsetY
Where x is pen speed. And y(x) is strength of prediction.
Link
Strength, Sharpness, OffsetX and OffsetY is values which you can change in driver.
Strength: is max of peak of prediction. Useful values are from 0 to 2, or up to 3-4 depends of latency.
Sharpness: changes how wide will be Strength.
OffsetX: center of peak of prediction. Useful values are from 0.5 up to 5-7. Increase value to shift cursor speedup to bigger movements.
OffsetY: Moves the plot up/down (positiove/negative values). Also defines minimal amount of prediction.

This is a low latency graphics tablet driver that is meant to be used with rhythm game osu!
Currently the driver only works when the TabletDriverGUI is running.
The GUI minimizes to system tray / notification area. You can reopen the GUI by double clicking the system tray icon.

You might need to install these libraries, but usually these are already installed:
-
Unzip the driver to a folder (Shorter path is recommended, for example
C:\Temp\TabletDriver
) -
Uninstall all other tablet drivers. If you have problems with uninstalling the Wacom drivers, check the GitHub issue #1
-
Run
install_vmulti_driver.bat
. It might need a restart if there is another vmulti driver installed. -
If you have Huion or Gaomon tablet, you need to run
install_huion_64.bat
, which is in thedriver_huion
directory. -
Start the TabletDriverGUI.exe
- Unzip the new version
- Start the TabletDriverGUI.exe
- Uncheck the "Run at Windows startup" option in the GUI.
- Run
remove_vmulti_driver.bat
- Run
remove_huion_64.bat
, which is in thedriver_huion
directory.
