DSCM general thread (How to fix no online)

[Shazbot!]

Updated 31.01.2021

So, this is solution for no matchmaking/online/whatever

How to
1.Get the latest version of DSCM here[github.com].
2.Run it
3.Don't touch anything
4.Congratulations, you have a working online now.
DSCM requires .NET Framework 4.5+ to work correctly
And pls, don't post your steam IDs anymore in this thread.

Well, what is it?

Dark Souls Connectivity Mod
from DSCM readme file,that noone will read anyway
DSCM offers remedies for connection issues. By entering a player's Steam64 ID you can find and pair with a specific player, even if both start with 0 nodes. To help gather random connections, connecting to another player who has successfully built up some nodes should then help kickstart your own node growth.

Nodes are a representation of people that you are connected to.

Steam matchmaking does a terrible job of giving people nodes, so DSCM was created to allow people to work around it.

It's not required, but Steam matchmaking can leave you playing for hours without seeing another player.

Once you can get a single node, either by forcing one with DSCM or just getting lucky with matchmaking, you'll usually comnect to a bunch more right away.

This does not work with the beta version of Dark Souls, so be sure to opt out of the beta in the Steam settings if you haven't already. You should not have to have the same download region set in steam for this to work.

My version of Framework is 4.7.1, I think

EDIT: Nevermind, I googled it after posting this and the solution was to run as admin.

[Canned Smeef]

My antivirus is reporting DSCM having a trojan virus. Is this legitimate?

False positive.

Any way to restrict connectivity with a ping limit?

It's cool to still be able to play with people, but most fights I had were with heavy laggards. It's not cool to receive a backstab when your opponent is visually on your side or even receiving a hit BEFORE you see the attack animation...

[Justins1877]

I've got an issue that I have never encountered before. I had to redownload everything, including DSCM for the new computer I'm using.
I'm not getting any nodes at all. Doesn't matter if I run as admin, start the program before or after launching DKS, which character I'm using, ect. It appears I have the latest version as well.

Any thoughts fellas?

[Dalokohs Bar Enjoyer]

Been having a problem with mine. For some reason since last night I've only been detecting around 3 to 4 people rarely 5.
I've tried everything restart the game restart the connectivity mod all sorts of things but I just get the same result.

Anyone else having this problem?

Actually, no. It's more logical and convenient to make your own thread asking for whatever it is you're on this forum for, because very few people who are here to help actually follow this thread.

Wow... i dont have anyone on my dscm with lower than 60 ping. Usually around 100 ms. That's sad.

If you want a real answer and not one that is obviously troll(you may want to sharpen your sense of these things), probably 150. I can accept over seas players having this ping but once it exceeds that, it's like they're on wifi throttling my particularly expensive internet plan.
