Hey Nito, the OP is missing a description for the deprived class.

 

[Sullichin]

Has ANYONE get their DS4 controller to work?!

Yeah. I probably posted like 8 times in this thread how I got it working and I'm not the only one

With Xinputwrapper, make sure "hide DS4" is checked. Make sure nothing else that could be identified as a controller is plugged in. Restart the program before you launch Steam.

 

[zephervack]

Where did you get that? Neither part is really true.
It doesn't work on "every" DX9 32 bit game, just quite a few of them. And you still edit the settings in a configuration file, because writing GUIs is boring. There's a GUI for launching/enabling it though.

ooops, thats what I got from skimming the article in your website, just realized that the GUI in it is The Witcher 2's, sorry

 

[Mkilbride]

I am getting alot of input delay, anyone else?

 

[Durante]

No problem! I just want to make very clear what it does and doesn't do so people aren't disappointed.

Never noticed any at all, and I'm very sensitive to input lag.

(Of course, some actions taking some uninterruptible time and queuing further actions is a Souls gameplay feature, not input lag)

Kinda fitting, if you think about it.

So, has grimmIron beat durante this time?

 

[Thrakier]

I did everything there. Seems to work fine but need some tweaks on the contrast.

I found out what the issue is. You have to manually assign the correct .exe, otherwise Inspector won't do anything. It's dsII.exe instead of the default ds2.exe.

Truly deprived.

 

[Autofokus]

I have to redo the shot but the difference its obvious.

I don't get it. Looks like the typical xbox black crush thing.

Beat him to what? Durante had a sweetfx profile that does the same thing several days ago in his PC Gamer article.

No. This is just an "xbox mod". Add contrast, ???, profit.

Happiness. It invades me!! Moar restoration projects means the game will look better very quickly.

 

[killertofu]

Guys, do you think I'm ready for DaS2?

'cause I think I'm ready.

Was that your first playthrough?

What SL did everyone get to when they beat the game? I'm seeing 100s but I'm pretty sure I only beat the game on like SL 60?

Isn't just a SFX profile?, Durante already made one sometime ago.

Durante still prevails

Not to mention, his preset is almost monochromatic, its terrible.

Oops my bad! O_O

Nah. Lol, changing the contrast in Sweet FX != Adding dynamic lighting where none existed before.

Looks awful. Typical SweetFX overuse black crush.

 

[Sinatar]

I average between 90 and 120ish depending on my build.

 

[Durante]

That's just a SweetFX profile (and a too extreme one in my opinion), did mine a few days ago

And I wouldn't want to know what the UI/menus look like considering the strength of that.

 

[Yoshichan]

Where should I get the pre-order items???

After you make your class decision.

 

[Vinegar Joe]

Damn, game crashes on start up

AMD 7870 XT. Latest beta drivers.

No news on a fix I presume? If this is as wide spread as it first appears, they obviously didn't test it on many hardware configurations.

Since this is very early and probably done in a fairly short space of time, and, could be updated over the coming days what might he be able to accomplish in 3 to 6 months time ??

 

[Grief.exe]

Forgive me if that has been covered Durante, but would your tool work on games such as Call of Cthulhu or Max Payne that are stuck in a 4:3 rendering format? The latter does have an unoffical patch, but the former is out of luck.

Literally everyone here with this problem unlocked the game with a VPN and no one with early access (that I know of) has mentioned this problem in this thread. Game works fine on HD7950. I think you'll just have to wait for it to be unlocked.

 

[SargerusBR]

Durante pls tell you are working on a solution for the in-game mouse cursor, its really annoying. D:

 

[Yoshichan]

Tears of joy are coming
While wishing for hope at the bonfire
With the darkest of souls returning
I shall seek the Zen I so long desire.

Because harsh is the path
And long is the road
But rather a swordless prince
Than a cursed undead toad.

So join me in my Story
It will be one of a kind
This road will lead to glory
With GAFfers always on my mind!

FUCK YES, this is awesome

 

[Garcia]

That's just a SweetFX profile

Ahh... I see :-/. I thought it was another separate project.

2 more hours to go, omg.

 

[hey_it's_that_dog]

http://grimmiron.blogspot.co.uk/

This doesn't look good at all. Durante's SweetFX profile is already much better than this.

"I'm gonna restore the lighting to its former glory!"

*makes everything darker and desaturated*

"I'm da bes!"

Ah sorry, haven't been keeping up!
Durante keeps the crown.

 

[Durante]

I won't answer any GeDoSaTo questions in this thread anymore, there really should be a separate one for that, this is the Dark Souls 2 thread after all.

 

[natertots]

It's glorious. I'd like to check it out with SweetFX enabled. Does anyone have a link to Durante's settings?

Had the same problem with a 7970, changed cable from hdmi to dvi and it worked. Might wanna try that.

 

[Sullichin]

This is not indicative of anything. You can throw SweetFX into any DX game the second it comes out.

Someone make the thread already!!! how times does he have to give a hint.

 

[Durante]

It would probably be relatively easy to hide it completely, but on the other hand it's a nice reminder that you're on a PC. I like it when I think of it that way

I hope so but I doubt it, some users on the steam discussion made it work by changing connections type, one from hdmi to dvi, the other from dvi to hdmi to get the game to load. Hope there's a fix soon for us that can't do that.

 

[Garcia]

Holy shit. This thread is moving lightning fast.

I highly doubt it's because of the VPN stuff when others who have used it are fine. I'd bet there's some sort of configuration/process that is crashing the game for people with that process running. They better be quick with a fix.

 

[Mkilbride]

I am already in-game, doing the tutorial, made my clas sdescision, and no pre-order items. I did pre-order, from GMG, and was promised the shiz.

I believe they come from a merchant down the line.

Explains why From wanted to launch in the smaller market of Japan to test the waters first. Little did they know about our sneaky VPNs.

 

[CarbonByGravity]

SweetFX makes the game so better visually, everyone should use it for a better Souls experience.

Does SweetFX work with AMD cards?

Did you get a separate key for the DLC items?

I believe they come from a merchant down the line.

If you have the DLC they should unlock shortly after making your character. I never redeemed it because it seems like it would be weird to get like 5 weapons every time I start the game that I wouldn't use.

Does SweetFX work with AMD cards?

Yep

 

[SargerusBR]

Servers are offline, that's why you cant get the items now.

Does SweetFX work with AMD cards?

Yes, but AFAIK you need to change some configs using RadeonPro

 

[Echoplx]

I don't think the pre-order content is live yet, the game hasn't officially released after all and looking at SteamDB only the Japanese specific content is live

[Alo81]

I'll make a GeDoSaTo Thread

 

[Temidien]

Folks who have played the PS3/360 versions: Would you please share some early tips, don't-blink-or-you'll-miss item locations for those who want them (with spoiler tags, of course)? DS-noob build suggestions would also be really appreciated

 

[Bucca]

So who wants to take bets for how long until cheaters make the online aspect annoying as all fuck? :|

 

[Vuze]

Does SweetFX work with AMD cards?

I never had any issues with it on my humble 7870 and I can't imagine a reason why there should be any.

 

[JLeack]

I bear great news. Dark Souls 2 will be unlocked on Steam at 3:00 p.m. PDT. 1.5 more hours to go. HURRAY!
