Web Tools — Hapbeat

Hapbeat Web Tools

Small browser apps for Hapbeat developers — no install needed. This is separate from the sidebar's '🛠 Tools' section (the Studio / Helper documentation) — here we host the tool apps themselves, runnable directly in your browser.

Web Runtime

Hapbeat Web Runtime

Receive semantic events from web apps on smart glasses or VR HMDs in a Runtime Console on another PC, then map and send them to Hapbeat.

Web Metronome

A metronome that plays sound in the browser and can send haptics to a Hapbeat device via hapbeat-helper. Useful for checking and tuning haptic timing offset.

Mod Settings Editor

About the Mod Settings Editor

Section titled “About the Mod Settings Editor”

This editor only makes sense once you have a Hapbeat device and a game running a matching mod. Open it without a settings file and there is nothing to edit, so the form stays empty.

  • The settings file (hapbeat_settings.json) is created in your game folder by the mods in hapbeat-modkit (UserData\hapbeat_settings.json for Pistol Whip, BepInEx\config\hapbeat_settings.json for Muck).
  • The file is read and written directly on your machine — nothing is uploaded. It uses the File System Access API, so desktop Chrome / Edge is required.
  • The live event view subscribes to a diagnostics stream the mod serves on 127.0.0.1. Browsers can reach 127.0.0.1 even from this HTTPS page, so if it does not connect, the game side simply is not listening.
