About this mod

This mod attempts to overhaul the cooping experience via allowing the player to summon phantoms even in places they normally can't. This mod also modifies invasions to where any Dark Spirit that invades your world instead becomes a helping phantom. Note: Do not use any sort of covenant as covenants break the shading system.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Changelogs
A few QoL changes in this mod are:
-All but one multiplayer barrier has been removed (For those who are wondering its the barrier in High Wall of Lothric where High Priestess Emma is).
-Auto Embering.
-Dried Finger 24/7.
-Coop limitations are 85 percent lifted.

Due to this being a mod it is not advisable to play on the official FromSoft servers. Using this mod on the ban servers isn't a great idea either since you'll be matching with players that are either hackers or users of a overhaul mod like Cinders or Convergence. I suggest you spin up your own ds3 server using ds3os which a link is provided in the requirements tab.

This mod is also not compatible with ANY other mod that alters params. It is however compatible with some dll mods like Honest Merchant.

You need to have mod engine installed.

In the modengine.ini file you will see an option called loadlooseparams you have to set this to 1 or else the mod won't work correctly (In case anyone's curious the text mod works it's just the white sign turns into a red sign and you actually PvP)

Also in the modengine.ini file you must set blockNetworkAccess to 0 so that way you can still log into your private server. 

I don't know if it works with 1.15.1, I tested this mod with version 1.15. Also, since you're technically "invading" your friend you will have to find them also you will not gain any souls.

You may run into connectivity issues if so simply resummon. In my few hours of testing I didn't have any disconnects

Installation is really simple:
-Install mod engine
-Extract mod
-Drag the mod and param folder from the mod folder to the game folder
-Go onto your private server

Updating is really simple as well:
-Unzip mod
-Drag mod and param folders to your game folder
-Go onto your private server

If you try to go onto official servers, the mod creator (that's me) is not responsible for any bans on your account.

-Version History-
v1.0 - Initial Release
v1.1 - Replaced Red Sign Soapstone icon with the White Sign Soapstone icon for clarity and added goodbye message for shades (only visible from host side) Also managed to change invasion distance so now you don't have to go halfway across the map to find your friend.
v1.2 - Allowed shades to become embered and upon resting at a bonfire you now receive 10 embers if you had less than 10 and 10 of any soul items you have in your inventory (boss souls excluded)
v1.5 - Allows the ability to coop from the start of the game. Note this is NOT seamless coop for dark souls 3 but it is as close as I can get with the tools  provided. Also multiplayer barriers are still in place. To get past them simply black crystal and go onto the other side of the barrier and resummon. This update also introduces the ability to summon phantoms even with the area boss defeated. Shades are still in the game if you need to coop without embers. I will not be removing them.
v1.6 - Added a new item called the Black Ember which functions as an infinite ember.
v1.6.1 - Fixed a bug where the Dried Finger item shows up as ?GoodsName? and doesn't function.
v2.0 - Removed all but 2 tested multiplayer barriers.
v2.5 - Removed the 20 second fog gate in firelink shrine, Made it easier to determine whether or not you have the mod installed.
NPC Summons will now roam around the area. You can still summon them through their signs if you're embered.
v2.6 - Fixed a bug that caused issues going into consumed kings garden (Shoutouts to those of you who reported this to me!)
v2.7 - Small Quality of Life update. Upon respawn you will automatically be embered and the dried fingers effects are automatically applied.
v2.8 - Fixed a bug where Sirris of the Sunless Relams's questline could not be completed. Note her summon sign does exist it's just invisible for some reason.
v2.9 - Fixed a bug where you can no longer summon other players if Champion Gundyr has been defeated

Please don't judge the mod too harshly as it's my first ever mod.
