Dark Souls internal rendering resolution fix (DSfix)
- Thread starter Durante
- Start date
It sounds like you have to have a higher resolution or that. Not unless you can combine injectors anyway.

PS3/360 versions look BAD now. Can't go back....
Huh I'm going to have to try this. I image what's helping most actually is the disabling vsync, but I couldn't get that to work on my game. DLing new drivers atm, hopefully it'll work with the new drivers.
yea, no question. i didn't expect the textures would look so goddamn pretty with the mod. really makes a difference from the screens i'm seeing.
Nah I had V-Sync disabled from the get-go. I have Catalyst 12.8, think that's the newest

I forgot to thank you, Durante. So, thanks a lot for your fix!

I just wonder if the issue is some weird power saving thing, the GPU goes into a low power mode or something and forcing AA forces it to work harder and prevents it from switching to that mode. GPU usage always dropped to 0% during the drops for me. I'll give his a try tomorrow and see if it helps. Thanks.
Nvidia Control Panel FXAA does work, but I was a retard and didn't select DATA.exe to anti-alias:
If you want to take a FXAA screenshot you need to drop to windowed mode and press Print Screen, sadly, but you get the idea (no AA reference images here: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=41352081&postcount=946)
Also, the GPU usage is insane at 5760x3240:

My game crashed right away. I had steam verify integrity of game cache and it solved the problem by downloading a 956kb file.

Thank you for this fix! It's way better now!
I recall AMD has a similar issue with another game a while back. Can't recall what it was.

Is there cross-platform play with the 360? I've already bought it but I'm just curious.
The game only sold around, what 9,000 copies? That isn't that great.

Dumb question where is the save file located?

Those aren't sales numbers
Nope.

Peaked at 9000 simultaneous players I think. Not necessarily 9000 copies sold but it probably didn't blow any doors off at Namco.
This is happening for me
Verify Integrity fails to fix it........ Was working before i put the fix in game dir, Anyone have any suggestions?Felix Lighter

Maybe that's it then. It would be awesome if all I have to do is force 8x MSAA to prevent framerate drops.

probably try deleting all local files in Steam and red/ing the files.

If you're talking about the concurrent players/peak players numbers shown in the steam statistics page, that's not the number of copies of the game that were sold, the concurrent players number is the number of players that are playing the game right now, and the peak today number is the highest number of concurrent players the game got today.
Not everyone is going to be playing the game at the same time, there's no way to know how many copies of the game were sold, unless the developers/publisher say how many copies it sold.
Sales are generally significantly higher than the number of people playing at one time.
Hey Sullichin quick question: that didn't seem to help in my case, and disabling Vsync in the control panel didn't disable it in game. Do you actually have Vsync disabled? Like, can you see visible tearing in game?

9000 doesn't even really represent the amount sold today or especially the lifetime sold (especially considering the physical release in other parts of the world). This will be a really profitable venture, eventually (hopefully they don't ignore Steam Sales).
Also reporting the game runs fine on my system.
Oh sweet thx man, was running both lol, apparently it was Afturburner though... Dunno why didnt have an OSD on that, Only on fraps
On another note, were is the 1080p option in the Vid options? i was under the impression it was the internal render thart was locked? its weird i set it to 1280x720 32, and when i hover mouse over initialize it shows 1080p in the colum next to it? i dun get it is this just showing that what res it will scale to or what? :-/
Anyway about to try it with the fix Downsampling 2560x1440 > 1080p (i shudderd when i saw the first cinematic without fix lol)
Edit: WTF Full screen off allows my to set it at 1080p? uhhhhh so do i just run Full screen @ 720p 32 bit, and the fix will still work or what?

I managed to add 8xMSAA with RadeonPro and the game didn't crack out on me. Even increased the internal res to 2560x1440. Can anyone tell or is it some kind of placebo?
Oddly enough, my frame rate has stabilized since I last played it a couple hours ago.

It's outselling Counterstrike: GO and is in the top 10 played games on Steam. I think sales are probably pretty good.

Fraps seems ok to use. I have the in game set to 1920x1080 32 bit, and the internal at 4096x2304. I have a 580 and 2600k@4.2 It seems fine to me.

I don't know about the MSAA, but the increased internal res is definitely giving you better IQ than your previous shots.

Maybe I'm blind but I can BARELY notice a difference between the default upscaling and it running at 2560x1440. I'm imagining this is because I'm playing on my TV 8 feet away eh?
Hmm so are you running it at FULL SCREEN on 1080p in options? cause if i set it @ full screen i can only select 1280x720 16/32?? Wtf lol

It definitely feels more smooth to me from the visual standpoint. At least from when I first just set the res to 1360x768. I've played with it at 1080p and now 1440p.

yes. I don't recall it being a problem. I did change it to that before the fix, not sure if that had anything to do with it.
Yeah that's what I was thinking:

I know it's early on....but enough with the pics from the Asylum!
Show some other places(besides Firelink Shrine).
Bosses...Blight Town...that kind of stuff. I would love to see the gargoyles, personally.
And thank you, Durante.

Dude you sure :-/, i was just F'ing around with setting removed all of the fix files, and if i have it set to full screen i can only select 1280x720 16/32, if i go to the "Initialize" button it shows 1080p with Full screen off to the right as defaults and when i click it goes back to windowed?
if this is the case im gonna try download everything again because there's obviously something up with my game
Also if i try running the Fix at 2560x1440 and the game at the 720p 32 option the video is only in like 1/4 of my screen?
:CRY:
