This is a maintenance release, and adds a few mouse-related features people were asking for.

• Mouse cursor toggling with F9 should now be less finicky
• You can toggle whether the mouse is allowed to leave the window with F10
  (this is useful in windowed mode or in fullscreen with multiple monitors)
• Both of these settings can also be set in the .ini
• The fix introduced in version 0.2 for cut-off text/buttons has been reworked to be much less invasive — if you have seen any degradation in performance or functionality from 0.1 to 0.2 this should fix it (I haven’t seen any changes)

This will probably be the last version for a little while, I have to go to work tomorrow

DSfix version 0.5 download

Please please remember to read the README.txt!

Edit: This fix didn’t work out, sorry. No further testing required for the moment.

I was told that the Nvidia card can be directly selected by an application on an Optimus system by selecting a different D3D adapter. I have no way of testing this since I do not own an Optimus device.

If you are an Optimus user (and only if you are an Optimus user) please download this version, test it on your system, and leave feedback below.

(link removed, this fix does not work)

Also, please do not get your hopes up just yet that this will fix the Optimus issue. Since I have no way of testing it I have no idea if it will work.

This version fixes the Depth of Field (DoF) effect, the last huge “bug” of the mod in my opinion.

• Added an .ini setting for overriding the DoF resolution
• I also provide the option to completely disable DoF scaling. However, I don’t recommend that. I think the game looks better with DoF, and it’s the way From Software intended it. Also, disabling the DoF this way may actually reduce performance.

See a screenshot showing off the fixed DoF here.

DSfix version 0.4 download

Please please remember to read the README.txt!

• If you just see a black screen with a grey square in it, disable the in-game AA setting. And try to read the readme in the future.
• The issue with Optimus is know, but I can’t promise a fix soon, since I don’t own an Optimus device to test on.
• I am currently working on fixing the DoF effect, I can’t say when that will be ready. Other requests will come after that.

Small updates in this release:

• The AF override is now adjustable (no override, limited override to enable downsampling, full override)
• You can press F9 to toggle the mouse cursor on/off, as some people requested.

Don’t forget to read the README!

DSfix03 download

I managed to fix the issue with the cut-off text and button prompts.
It’s a rather brute-force fix, so please test and see if it introduces any new issues.

This version should also fix downsampling for everyone and may improve texture clarity (forces 16xAF on everything).

I’ll add more internal details here soon.

Important: turn off in-game AA (blur filter)

Known Issues

• Message text is not rendered correctly. I will work on this tomorrow.
• Does not work with the in-game AA (but that’s just a blur filter anyway)
• Bad framerate reported on AMD cards, NV seems fine
