📋 About This Mod

NOTE: NEW DSFIX 1. 6. 1 IS OUT AND IT FIZES THE FPS ISSUE. HOWEVER, IF FOR SOME REASON I DOESNT WORK LIKE 1. 5 YOU CAN STILL USE THIS. OTHER THAN THAT, I DONT THINK THIS IS NEEDED ANYMORE. LETS HOPE IT STAYS IN HE NEXUS HOWEVER, FOR JUST IN CASE. USE AT OWN RISK: REPORTS OF BAN ARE GOING OUT, DO NOT KNOW HOW TRUE THEY ARE,JUST BE CAREFUL. After 30 hours+ on gfwl online, nothing has happened. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FINALLY: A TRUE 60 FPS VIDEO OF DARK SOULS, GAME GOES AT 1. 5X SPEED FOR ME IN THIS AREA, BUT ITS SO SMOOTH. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMpxH09XsYA&feature=youtu.be WATCH IN HD Anor Londo Version at mediafire http://www.mediafire.com/?19h41021c46rbk5 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TO UNINSTALL: DELETE ALL 3 FILES ==================================================================================== UPDATE 2: I added another file that includes the dsfix 1. 5 from genius Durante and the dsound.dll and ASI file in there as well. DSFIX settings are all set to 1080p and set for best results. CHANGE AT WILL. Reports are that 45fps (default) is causing major drops, change it to 60 on dsfix.ini and see if that works. This is so there is no confusion on what to change, delete or replace. At some points am getting 1. 5x speed, which is awesome cause its crazy smooth. DURANTES DSFIX 1. 5: http://darksouls.nexusmods.com/mods/19 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ====================================================================================== IMPORTANT: This will only work on fast CPUs. Intel only at the moment. It will not work on laptops.
