Praise the sun !

You should have had an update deployed half an hour ago.

Launch the game and log in GFWL, your achievements should be unlocked.
Exit the game and opt in the beta (in DS settings on your library).
If your game crashes on launch remove the fps unlock in your DsFix.ini (until it's updated).

DSFix unlocked framerate broken.
DSMFix also broken.
I wonder what this will mean for DSCFix.

While the transition is great, a little more waiting is still required.

What happens with DS Fix? Can we still use it?
Should we download the game > Install patch > Install DSFix.exe?

Disable unlocked frame rate. It'll start then.
OP had already said this.

Derivative mods like the mouse and connectivity fix are still broken. The latter is obsolete now, probably.

You should be able to just back up your actual save file from your documents folder.

Framerate is a stuttery mess of 25-39 frames and ridiculous mouse issues. BUT its on steamworks now.
Give the modding community a few days and i'm sure they'll fix that right up.
Durante is still active, he might have a fix for that.
I hope DSFix won't flag people with VAC bans though. Steam can get touchy with game files being modified every now and then.

I will be surprised if they implement VAC in the first place.

VAC is used with very few games. Mostly Valve titles and Call of Duty.

It was probably only mentioned since Dark Souls 2 implemented it. Since the first is moving to Steam online servers, it is a possibility, no matter how small.

Works fine for me on a R7 265 (HD7850) with the last Catalyst that came out before Omega.
I'd say try updating them. Also check the ini files on DS's directory to make sure there's no weird setting.

Did never understand why anyone would play Dark Souls with a stranger ... or a friend - pointless.

Playing solo is much more hardcore. You can even farm those annoying PVP tokens by killing crows in the Painted World.
Nice work From for atleast making it offline-friendly.

I'll copy-paste what I answered to someone esle in another thread :

The substance of this game is in the exploration, the fear, the priviledge of discovery, the trial and error.

While I agree that it would be cool to be able to do coop with a friend (which you actually can by using DsCfix to help connecting with your bros if I'm not mistaken), you are supposed to feel isolated, lost in a world with its own rules (the world is non-euclidian for instance), that's why summoning a bro will connect you to random dudes.

You summon random bros who you know nothing about, you're unable to communicate properly with them (you can make gestures or drop items that will say basic things like "hello" or "I'm sorry". One might say that it dramatically impairs communication but... it's a feature ! Like, really this time !

When you play coop with a bro and can't communicate properly with him, it's no longer a player, it's one of those strange characters from a strange world.

That character isn't quite right, it's wearing too much armor, it's not well enough endowed and it's lscking a phallic weapon!

I've hardly played so I guess I'll just lose my data.
I've never been able to connect to GFWL ever.

edit: I guess I have connected since it's required to save...
All my memorable experiences with GFWL involve it refusing to connect & getting frustrated after 20 mins, & not playing my game.

Oho, finally! :)

Hmm... If I don't want to transfer the achievements + saves from the GFWL version, what is the correct procedure? Do I simply avoid running the new GFWL version, and just run the steamworks beta version? Anyone tried it?

9 years ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

I'm going to start anew so I too want to know the exact procedure. I got messages saying to run the beta directly without starting the GFWL.
Info seems wonky but most claim all achievements (for those who did it all) unlock right after they start up the game.

It's going to be fun doing it all over again.(Except Knight's Honor-Too much farming plus 3 playthroughs atleast)

*Edit:Running beta by enabling it in properties without launching GFWL version worked like a charm.
Starting all over again. :D

So, just found this isn't all perfect. The online servers are region locked. As a Kiwi, I'll have **** all people to play with, and only a handful of my friend list would work.

How does it even work now? Is it every country on its own, and not regions including several countries? If I'm not mistaken, you guys are usually grouped together with Aussies for on-line games, so it shouldn't be that much of a problem if that's the case.

I'm not sure, but it seems Europeans players aren't getting anyone outside of their own country, no matter how long they wait. At this point, it seems to be limited by country of the player, not wider regions.
