Update: The mod has been updated to work with the latest version of the game now (1.03.1). Note that this version of the menu will NOT work with earlier game versions. Check the changelog for a more detailed list of additional changes.
This mod restores the debug menu for Dark Souls: Remastered and includes some additional debug enhancements to make modding the game more pleasant:
How to Install
First, grab the latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable from here and install it: https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe
You might already have it installed, it's just to make sure you can run the mod.
Drop game.properties, debug.ini and dinput8.dll from the archive into the game's folder. To deactivate the mod, remove or rename the dinput8.dll.
If you're already using a dinput8 mod and want to use it together with the debug menu,
you can rename the other mod's dll, open debug.ini and enter its name behind dinput8DllWrapper between the "" (Example: dinput8DllWrapper = "mcdoodoo.dll")
How to Use
I recommend disabling TAA in the game's options, because it doesn't work too well with some of the debug draw.
The console can be toggled via the option in debug.ini. The other options were moved to game.properties.
Debug Menu Controls:
SELECT: Open Debug Menu
R1 + R2 + L1: Open New Window
R1 + DPAD: Move to Next Parent Node
R1 + L STICK: Move Window
R1 + L2: Move to Previous Window
R1 + L1: Move to Next Window
R1 + R2 + L2: Close Window
R1 + R2 + R STICK: Scale Window
R1 + R2 + L STICK:Change Number of Lines Displayed
Gameplay Controls:
R1 + R2 + L2:Open Gesture Menu
L3:Activate Debug Dash
A (Hold) + L3:Activate Debug Camera
Debug Cam Controls:
X:Advance Time by One Step (when frozen)
A + L3:Cycle Through Debug Camera modes/Deactivate Debug Camera
R2:Ascend
L2:Descend
L1 (Hold):Slow Down
R1 (Hold):Speed Up
Debug Dash Controls:
L3:Deactivate Debug Dash
L2:Go Up
L1:Go Down
R2 (Hold):No Clip
FOR ADVANCED USERS:
You can use the function ai:PrintText to print text from your custom AI. ESD debug output needs to be enabled for
each character separately (GAME->CHR INS->WORLD CHR MAN->(Chr entry)->Action->Delay init debug menu->EzState(From the check print)).
The original ESD function for printing was enhanced to support formatted strings.
