Game.Description =
  "IMPORTANT: Close Steam completely before running this. Requires the latest Seamless Co-op mod to be installed correctly in your main latest clean game files: https://www.nexusmods.com/darksoulsremastered/mods/899. To connect the instances rest at a bonfire to get the co-op items then use the blessed eye orb to host in one instance and use the crystal eye orb in the other instances to join. If you use keyboards/mice after all the instances have launched, resized and positioned correctly, press the END key once to lock the input for all instances to have their own cursor, you need to left click each mouse to make the emulated cursors appear after locking the input. Press the END key again to unlock the input when you finish playing. To avoid stretching and resizing issues in split-screen you need to create custom resolutions in your AMD/Nvidia/Intel panel (for example for a 1920x1080 monitor add resolutions like: 960x1080, 960x600, 1920x600 etc.) so the game can see and use them (the game does not see below 600 res), get past the title screen where it says to press any button so the game resizes to its settings res. If your gamepads stop working after a while, alt-tab to a window that has top most enabled to fix them like task manager or process explorer or restart your PC.";
