This is a new and improved official version of the Nucleus Co-op application and is part of the SplitScreen.Me github organization. This new version is based off of the Nucleus Co-op Alpha 8 Mod build and features a ton of enhancements.
Note: Some Nucleus Co-op hook dlls and Goldberg emulator, used by Nucleus, can sometimes be detected by Microsoft Defender and other anti-viruses and web browsers: this is 100% a false positive see here and here. You may have to allow Nucleus as an exception before extracting.
