DeSSE Go

A Demon's Souls server emulator implemented in Go and using SQLite for persistent data storage.

Acknowledgements

This is heavily based upon the work done by ymgve in the desse project. This was the first working version of a Demon's Souls server after the official shutdown. We're in the debt of the packet analysis and efforts from ymgve.

Features

This server implements the core feature set for Demon's Souls:

• Login
• Character creation
• World tendency
• Blood messages
• Wandering ghosts
• Blood stains
• Summons

It should be noted that the full summon/multiplayer flow is not handled by this server and relies on the Sony Playstation Network matchmaking system. There is every chance they'll drop support for PS3 Demon's Souls at some point.

Requirements

• Go 1.13+

Installation

$ go get -u github.com/danmrichards/dessego/cmd/server/...

Connecting from Demon's Souls

Native PS3

To start with you'll need some sort of DNS proxy where you can configure the following URLs to route to your dessego server:

ds-eu-c.scej-online.jp
ds-eu-g.scej-online.jp
c.demons-souls.com
g.demons-souls.com
cmnap.scej-online.jp
demons-souls.scej-online.jp

Then you can follow these steps:

1. On your PS3 Navigate to the following menu: Settings > Network > Internet Connection Settings > Custom > Enter Manually -> Scroll to DNS Section -> Manual
2. Set Primary DNS to the host/port of your DNS proxy

RPCS3

First ensure you have RPCS3 installed and Demon's Souls is working (figure that one out yourselves!)

1. Open RPCS3 & Create a custom configuration of your game, proceed into the Network settings and set the following options as said:
2. Set Network Status to Connected
3. Set PSN Status to RPCN
4. Set DNS to 8.8.8.8
5. Set IP/Host Switch to ds-eu-c.scej-online.jp=<DESSEGO_IP>&&ds-eu-g.scej-online.jp=<DESSEGO_IP>&&c.demons-souls.com=<DESSEGO_IP>&&g.demons-souls.com=<DESSEGO_IP>&&cmnap.scej-online.jp=<DESSEGO_IP>&&demons-souls.scej-online.jp=<DESSEGO_IP> where DESSEGO_IP is the host/port where you're running dessego.
6. Save Configuration
7. Go to RPCS3 main menu, proceed to 'Configuration', then 'RPCN'
8. Set Host to np.rpcs3.net
