Fixed the OP Life Ring situation :D Also added an item where you can make yourself look like a phantom :D This effect will last until death Also you need to create a new character to recieve said item.
Version v4.0
Removed shades, Also removed the Black Ember as auto embering rendered it obsolete. Invasion items are disabled for your safety
Version v3.1
Fixed a bug where Sister Frede couldn't be fought
Version v3.0
Reduced the timers for summon signs and increased the number of shades to 100 instead of 5 max (hopefully. I don't have the PCs to test this with) and increased the number of bloodstains and messages you see ingame. Also, there's 2 flavors of this version one is where the phantoms you summon look like hosts and the second is where the phantoms look like phantoms (Like in the vanilla game)
Version v2.9
Fixed a bug where you can no longer summon if Champion Gundyr has been defeated (Shoutouts to zancr0ws for reporting this!)
Version v2.8
Fixed a bug where Sirris of the Sunless Relams's questline could not be completed. Note her summon sign does exist its just invisible for some reason.
Version v2.7
Small Quality of Life update. Upon death you will automatically be embered. The effects of the Dried Finger are now always applied.
Version v2.5
Removed the last 2 multiplayer barriers. NPC Summons will now roam around the map (You can still summon them if embered)
Version v2.0
Removed all but 2 multiplayer barriers. The only remaining tested multiplayer barriers are in Firelink and High Wall of Lothric at Emmas chamber. There are areas that you will get connection errored. This is due to you crossing a transition seam into a new area. This can be fixed by you having your friend place their sign on the other side of the area this occured.
Version v1.6.1
This is the final update for this mod. The only change is I fixed the dried finger to where it works correctly now.
Version v1.6
Added a new item called the Black Ember which allows for infinite embers.
Version v1.5
Added the ability to coop pretty much anywhere you want. You are still required to be embered for summoning phantoms. 99 Embers are given to you at the start of the game and everything you need to start cooping is in your inventory. Added the ability to summon phantoms even with the area boss defeated
Version v1.3
Enabled Coop in Firelink just before Iudex Gundyr. This means that you can coop within the first 20 seconds of the game! Added 99 embers to your inventory upon starting a new game and added the white sign soapstone and small white soapstone to the quick items bar (properly!)
Version v1.2
Allowed 99 percent of items to be dropped between 2 players this is to compensate for no enemy drops. Allowed summoned shades to use embers. Having 1 ember then resting at bonfire will restore 10. Resting at a bonfire with a soul item (non boss) will give you 10 of that item this is to compensate for the lack of being able to gain souls as a shade.
Version v1.1
Switched the Small White Soapstone's icon from Red Sign Soapstone to that of the White Sign Soapstone so it's less confusing. Added a goodbye message to any leaving shades (only visible on host side) Made the summoned shade appear closer to the host rather than halfway across the map.
Version 2.6
Fixed a strange issue where you couldnt enter Consumed Kings Guarden
Version 1.00
Initial Version
This mod in a nutshell allows for coop out of the gate
Some features of the mod: Able to summon as soon as you start the game. (Both on official servers and non!) You no longer need embers since you become embered as soon as you spawn. The multiplayer barriers are for the most part removed. (Theres one in High Wall where Emma is and one in catacombs of carthus) Official Server support via Modengine 2! (Note: This mod WILL get you banned so play on an alt!) Overleveled Phantom downscaling has been significantly reduced.
The mod is not seamless coop
Installation is simple! Download the mod Extract it Drag the contents of the folder you just extracted into your game folder Play! (Additional setup required for DS3OS or Painted worlds, if you want to play with either of those 2 mods I will have tutorials posted in articles)
