DSCM not working
Hello everyone. I would need some help with the new DSCM which unfortunately doesn't work despite everything. After updating it and opening it as administrator it keeps showing me the following messages in debug:

10: 21: 03.505 WRN: Status can not be acquired because connection has not been created
10: 21: 03.505 WRN: I can not get an input stream because a connection has not been created
10: 21: 03.538 WRN: Can not accept because no connection has been created



I see 0 active nodes. Can anyone help me?

Matchmaking for this game and all other souls-games on PC is currently offline, due to a severe exploit discovered, allowing co-op phantoms and invaders to potentially execute code on your computer.

There's a workaround, involving the latest version of DSCM and a test-game for developers, who are using Steam for matchmaking, called "Spacewar". IMO not worth it, since you'll only see players, who also used this workaround, which i can't imagine being more than a handful.
But if you don't care, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK:

I've already seen that post the problem is I can't figure out how to use Spacewar. Could you tell me?

Sorry, i've never used a mod, that went through Spacewar. I only ever used DSCM, when matchmaking was still enabled. But the instructions in that thread seem pretty straight forward. Make an specifically named .txt-file in the game's directory, put in Spacewar's appid and launch the .exe of Dark Souls directly with DSCM installed. Just closely follow that post's instructions and read a little further down in that post, if you have controller-issues.
