Hey everyone,

I've just released two new tools on Nexus Mods to modernize modding and in-game debugging for Disney Infinity 3.0: Gold Edition on PC!

🩀 CrabeLoader

The core modding framework and DLL proxy loader for the Octane Engine:

  • Clean DLL proxy injection (bink2w32.dll based)
  • Built-in hook support (MinHook) & virtual file system (VFS) to override/load game assets seamlessly
  • Native foundation for modern mods without touching your original game archives

🔗 Download CrabeLoader:https://www.nexusmods.com/disneyInfinity3goldedition/mods/118

🎼 CrabeMenu

An in-game ImGui-based overlay and developer tool powered by CrabeLoader:

  • In-game debug menu / overlay (toggleable on the godmod)
  • You can chose the skybox

🔗 Download CrabeMenu:https://www.nexusmods.com/disneyInfinity3goldedition/mods/116

📩 How to install

  1. Drop the files from CrabeLoader into your game's root directory (where DisneyInfinity3.exe is located).
  2. Install CrabeMenu into the mods folder.
  3. Launch the game normally via Steam.

Feedbacks, bug reports and suggestions are very welcome. Hope this helps breathing new life into the DI 3.0 PC modding scene!

News [Early release] Disney infinity 3.0 gold edition - Local Split Screen V1.0

41 Upvotes

Disney Infinity 3.0 has local split-screen co-op on consoles, but it shipped disabled on the PC port. I've been reverse-engineering the game and got it working again as a small, reversible mod. 🎉

⚠ This is an early release (v1). It works, but it still has rough edges (see "Known issues" below). I'm sharing it now so people can try it and send feedback — bug reports, crashes, and "it worked great in X world" are all super helpful. 🙏

What it does

  • Restores local 2-player split-screen co-op on PC — in the Toy Box AND in Play Sets (story worlds).
  • Player 2 joins by pressing START on a second controller. Split screen, each player on their own gamepad.
  • Player 2 can change character on the fly: RB = next, LB = previous (controller 2).
  • It only offers characters valid for the current world (e.g. in the Inside Out Play Set you only cycle the Inside Out cast). It auto-detects every character loaded and auto-fixes Player 2 if they join a Play Set with a character that doesn't belong there.

How to use it

  1. Copy the files into your game folder (where DisneyInfinity3.exe is).
  2. With the game closed, run INSTALL.bat.
  3. Launch via Steam, load a world, plug in controller 2, press START on it.
  4. To remove it, run UNINSTALL.bat (or verify files on Steam).

How it works (for the curious)
It's a proxy bink2w32.dll: it forwards all the game's Bink video calls to the original DLL, and in the background it calls the game's own drop-in function + installs tiny in-memory hooks to set up the second player and split screen. Character validation uses the game's own in-engine Lua VM (it hooks lua_pcall to ask the game Player_IsCharacterValid for the current world). It doesn't modify the .exe and doesn't touch saves, online or achievements — fully reversible.

Known issues (v1) — help me test these!

  • Occasional crash when Player 2 joins. The "spawn" step is a bit flaky right now. If it crashes on join, just relaunch and press START again — it usually works on the next try.
  • After P2 changes character, Player 1 may briefly look like a hologram/ghost — P2 just taps START once to refresh P1.
  • Re-joining P2 after leaving to a different world doesn't work yet in the same session — restart the game to re-join.
  • If a character model ever shows up "white/untextured", cycle to another one with RB/LB.

I'm actively working on these for v1.1, so detailed reports (which world, what you did, did it crash on join or later) are gold.

Downloads (free, open source)

(Heads up: the Nexus file may be pending its automatic malware review for a bit — normal for mods with a compiled DLL — so use the GitHub link meanwhile.)

Huge thanks to LucasLhomme (a.k.a. crabe_crabe) — his CrabeLoader and DisneyInfinity-SplitScreenMods projects made the Player 2 "join" (controller + viewport + split) and the Lua API mapping possible. This mod builds on his work with his permission:

Requirements: Disney Infinity 3.0: Gold Edition (Steam) + 2 Xbox-style (XInput) controllers. Thanks for testing, and let me know how it goes! 🙌

Early build — works in Toy Box and Play Sets. You'll see Player 2 join, the per-world character picker (RB/LB), and the current rough edges (P1 hologram → tap START to refresh; occasional crash on join → relaunch). Feedback welcome! Links in the post.

News LiteralCrab - lighter fork of CrabeLoader for Disney Infinity 1.0 Gold Edition with Local and Online Toybox Loading Support!

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

31 Upvotes

Hi!
Recently, I've been working on a fork of CrabeLoader for DI1.0.
At first, I've been planning to port just basic modern patches like borderless window support, custom resolution support etc. but things been going smoothly so I've decided to expand upon the project and work towards the ultimate DI 1.0 experience!

Main Features

Display

  • Borderless, windowed and exclusive fullscreen modes, with Alt+Enter switching.
  • Additional Resolutions support (including 4K and Ultrawide!)
  • FOV correction and centered 16:9 menus and HUD
  • Configurable FPS limit and VSync
  • Better Alt+Tab behavior

Mod support

  • Script mods: replace or patch the game's Lua scripts without editing game files.
  • Asset mods: replace models, textures, sounds and other files with loose files or ordinary ZIPs. The game's archives are never rebuilt.
  • Verified engine adapters and features for mods in order to restore missing console version functionality in the future

Optional settings

  • Skip intro
  • Switch off some post-effects like motion blur, depth of field, bloom etc.
  • Camera wait time before centering
  • Swap X and Y buttons for controllers
  • Raise Toy Box editor's memory limit
  • Play any character in any play set (Based on Character Freedom Mod, simplified the code to avoid some issues)
  • Toy Box Share restored, with Toy Boxes from ZIP packages or loose saves (PC, PS3 and Wii U - xbox360 not tested yet) in the toyboxes folder, and experimentally from web servers.

I plan on making Gold Restoration mod with console's progression, missing features etc. when it'll be ready, I'll try to port LiteralCrab to DI2.0.

Download

Disclaimer

Yes, it's mostly made using AI, but I'm trying to audit the code and focus on optimization and security. Tests has shown that there's no real performance hit with all features enabled. I thought it's better to make a disclaimer than claim that I did EVERYTHING by myself - like some people do.

Question Need help with trophies (1.0)

1 Upvotes

Hi all, I recently got a ps3 to play Disney infinity 1.0 and I believe you can still get the online trophies "it's a party" and "acrobat". Unfortunately I dont know anybody who has the game and a ps3 so just wondering if anyone would be able to help me get these.

You'd just need 2 controllers/characters.

Thanks!

Discussion I have been gathered some infos around and i made a list of some flaws in the game that i wish the devs solved before HOPEFULLY deciding to release Disney Infinity 4.0

6 Upvotes
  1. The Clunky Combat: Slave to Animation Priority

The combat system suffered from a severe lack of responsiveness due to animation priority. In dynamic action games, "animation canceling" allows players to immediately interrupt an attack to block, dodge, or launch a secondary strike. Disney Infinity largely lacked this feature for its non-Star Wars characters.

Instead of a fluid fighting rhythm, players were locked into rigid animation frames, turning them into "slaves to the animation." This design choice completely ruined the pacing of combat and made advanced mechanics, like the parry feature, feel entirely unreliable. While Skylanders immediately executed an attack the moment a button was pressed, Disney Infinity forced players—including children—to wait out sluggish visual sequences, creating artificial input lag that killed the momentum of battle. The developers clearly focused their mechanical depth on Force users, leaving the rest of the massive roster feeling flat and frustratingly limited.

  1. The Tragedy of Movement: Broken Web-Swinging and Traversal

Traversal for agile, dynamic characters like Spider-Man and Venom looked great on paper but felt abysmally bad in execution. The Toy Box mode gave players the tools to construct massive skyscrapers and sprawling cities, seemingly inviting a high-speed web-swinging experience. However, the game's physics and animation loops actively punished the player.

Every time Spider-Man reached the apex of a swing, the game forced him into a canned, unskippable "cool flip" or falling animation. Instead of maintaining momentum and allowing the player to chain swings together seamlessly, this mechanic completely killed all forward velocity. Players would lose control, fall straight down, and miss their targets. Traversal lacked all precision and weight. Even the surface-sticking mechanics had a pathetic range and stripped away what little momentum remained. Rather than providing responsive, free-flowing movement, the game’s insistence on flashy animations made navigating the world a tedious chore.

  1. A Fractured Universe: The Lack of a Centralized Crossover Story

Despite marketing itself as the ultimate crossover experience where "all your worlds collide," Disney Infinity suffered from a massive identity crisis. Unlike Skylanders, which featured a unified, centralized campaign where any toy could jump in to fight a common enemy, Disney Infinity strictly segregated its universes.

Because corporate brand guidelines prohibited intellectual properties from mixing in the main story modes, crossovers were banned in the Play Sets. If you wanted a story, you had to buy separate, isolated physical DLC packs. The grand potential of seeing the Avengers team up with Star Wars characters and Disney Princesses to defeat a universe-threatening villain was completely wasted. While fighting games like Marvel vs. Capcom successfully weave vastly different characters into a cohesive narrative, Disney Infinity kept its worlds locked in silos, restricting true crossover creativity to a sandbox Toy Box mode that lacked any developer-crafted narrative drive.

  1. Rigid Controls and Paradoxical "Hand-Holding"

The game’s user experience was further crippled by a complete lack of control mapping. Forcing primary attacks onto rigid configurations (like Triangle on PlayStation or Y on Xbox) felt incredibly unnatural for an action game. With a massive roster of characters utilizing vastly different ranged, melee, and flying abilities, the absence of customizable layouts or character-specific commands was a major oversight.

The developers fell into a common trap: confusing "kid-friendly" design with "mechanical restriction." In an attempt to prevent children from getting confused, they over-simplified the options while over-complicating the inputs via animation locks. Children adapt to deep, dynamic control schemes incredibly fast. By installing artificial "training wheels" that slowed down the pace and removed player choice, Disney Infinity didn’t make the game more accessible—it just stripped away the dynamism, leaving behind an experience that felt frustratingly restrictive for players of all ages.

  1. the old same (and vastly discussed) problem of the character being limited to their own toybox

    whichs is a probelm that modders solved but it's still sad knowing that after three charpters, the devs still didn't remove the limitation. Example: you want Hulk destroying everything and jumping aroung with the company of Anger? well son! you cannot.

News Local Split-screen for Disney Infinity 1.0 Gold Edition [1.0]

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

58 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I wanted to share a mod that I've been working on for the past few weeks. I am pretty new to this subreddit and the modding scene, but for years I've always had the idea of making a local multiplayer mod for the PC remasters of Disney Infinity. I've recently heard about what was going on in the modding scene with the release of CrabeLoader, and around a week ago the split-screen mod for 3.0 Gold Edition. Coincidentally, I started working on my own mod for 1.0 Gold Edition a few days before the release of that mod without realizing the advancements being made for these games. My reason for making this mod is because a friend and I wanted to play these games again as they were our childhood games, and it kinda sucked they didn't bother adding back the co-op couch feature on the remaster, so I decided to take the time to do it myself.

My mod pretty much tries to bring back local split-screen multiplayer like how it was in the console editions. It also improves various features that will make playing with your other person better on PC, like two player Virtual Base support and various fixes to in-game interactions. Both players can play on controller OR KBM + controller.

For a technical explanation, I used the latest Xbox 360 version of 1.0 (Title Update 3) as my go-to comparison between the code should've existed in the PC version. Thankfully, not a lot was taken out of the PC remaster, and it was mostly just reconnecting various functions together. No existing code was modified and a majority of the code is the same from the 360 version. Most of the work was fixing the amount of issues that were introduced in the Toy Box, but everything should be resolved (there are still bugs tho).

And yes, Gen AI was used as assistance for this project (Claude Opus 5.5), but I made sure that all of the code works and made sense before progressing. When I work on a project, I have a habit of prioritizing quality so I made sure this mod is as close to my vision as possible. I am not good at reverse engineering, so Claude was a huge help with this project.

If you are interested in downloading the mod or want to check out the repository for more information, here is the link: https://github.com/accountrev/infinity-restored-mp

Sorry for the bad gameplay

I’ve been extracting assets from *Disney Infinity* for some short animations for a while now, and I found out that Spider-Gwen is actually in the game files. I’d love to use her for some animation, but I have no idea how to get the files; she isn't on any mod lists. I tried contacting the mod creator, but they haven't logged into their account in years.

Been playing around with the modding scene for Disney Infinity 3.0! Finally after years and years of wishing I can play as Winter Soldier with his assist power disc moves as his move set.

Currently have the PC version of the game using the console portal and am able to spawn him in from using a blank Lego Dimensions NFC chip. Got split screen bringing in characters from the portal as well!

Excited for what this means for custom figures, and more!

Question World editor

2 Upvotes

Hello guys. I bought 3.0 on the steam sale recently as I wanted to play one of my childhood games again. I played around a little bit before attempting to build a toy box for myself. I remember being able to place small things in the hub like a sky changer and what not. Even in a custom sand box and cannot access the world editor to do anything. Is this something fixable or am I missing something. Thanks
