FIRST RUN

Find the visible 3DX chat.

Open 3DX before the Companion. A green detection label confirms the game is available. The startup scan locates the movable chat input and caches it.

  • Use Scan again after moving chat.
  • If several accounts are open, choose the hosting window in the automatic picker or under Settings → 3DX instance.
  • Use Show Selected 3DX when you need help identifying a window.
  • Choose silent rescans every 0, 5, or 10 minutes.
  • The app remains external and restores your cursor after sending.

  • Parent buttons open a compact child-outcome menu.
  • Enable Quickbind, hover a phrase, and press a key; Esc clears it.
