About this mod
Enjoy smoother, more precise character movement and camera control when using a gamepad.
Changes Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin's deadzone implementation to use a 36% radial deadzone, the same as in the other Dark Souls games. This removes the previous axial deadzone, which restricted diagonal adjustment.
- Permissions and credits
Center Deadzone Mod is only compatible with Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin.
No Deadzone Mod is compatible with both versions of Dark Souls 2, but requires you to configure your own deadzone profile, most likely through Steam.
Instructions:
0) (Optional) Back up the original DarkSoulsII.exe file.
1) Run DarkSoulsII.poc.exe.
2) In the first window, select the original DarkSoulsII.exe file in your Dark Souls II Scholar of the First Sin\Game directory.
3) In the second window, press Save. It will create a new file called Patched DarkSoulsII.exe in your Game directory.
4) Delete the original DarkSoulsII.exe file.
5) Rename Patched DarkSoulsII.exe to DarkSoulsII.exe.
6) (If you're using the No Deadzone Mod) Configure your own deadzone profile.
If you want to return to the original deadzone implementation, replace the modded DarkSoulsII.exe with the original version you saved, or just delete it, then verify the integrity of your game files using Steam. If using the No Deadzone Mod, disable Steam Input for Dark Souls 2.
The code changes to DarkSoulsII.exe are fully contained to the function that calculates the deadzone, which is almost certainly not checked by the anticheat, so it is extremely unlikely that this mod will cause a softban. There have been no reports to date of softbans from people who use this mod.
