Installation:
1. Download main file.
2. Extract All (Pocket Souls folder, dinput8.dll, and modengine.ini) files to standard DS3 game folder. Should look like:
..\Steam\steamapps\common\DARK SOULS III\Game\
3. Start a new game.
The folder named "Pocket Souls" should be in the same folder as the DarkSoulsIII.exe file.
The modengine and dinput8 files should be in that same folder near DarkSoulsIII.exe.
Do not change the file structure in the mod. Modengine is currently set to read from \Pocket Souls, use an alternate save file, and block network access.
If you're running Linux, make sure to add the Launch Option: WINEDLLOVERRIDES="dinput8.dll=n,b" %command%
1. Follow Installation instructions and replace files when prompted. Your save files will not be affected.
1. Delete modengine.ini and dinput8.dll
