1. Unofficial Fan Site Status
darksoulsarchthrones.com is an unofficial community resource created for educational and informational purposes.
- We are NOT affiliated, associated, authorized, endorsed by, or in any way officially connected with FromSoftware, Inc., Bandai Namco Entertainment, or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates.
- We are NOT the developers of the mod. The Dark Souls: Archthrones mod is developed by “The Archthrones Team.” We simply provide guides, wikis, and news regarding their work.
The official website for the mod project can be found on their respective platforms (Nexus Mods / Patreon).
2. Intellectual Property Rights
All game titles, publisher names, trademarks, artwork, and associated imagery are trademarks and/or copyright material of their respective owners.

- All visual assets (screenshots, gameplay footage) used on this site are for commentary, educational, and review purposes under the doctrine of Fair Use.
If you are a copyright holder and believe your content has been used in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please contact us immediately for removal.
3. “Use at Your Own Risk” (Modding Liability)
This Website provides tutorials on “Downpatching” (modifying game executables), editing TOML configuration files, and injecting DLLs to run the Archthrones mod.
While we rigorously test our guides, modifying game files carries inherent risks. By following our guides, you acknowledge that:
- Save File Corruption: Modifying your game can corrupt your save data. We strongly recommend backing up your
Roaming/DarkSoulsIIIfolder before installation. We are not responsible for lost progress. - Technical Issues: We are not liable for any damage to your game client, operating system, or hardware resulting from the installation of third-party mods.
- Software Conflicts: Our guides assume a clean installation. Conflicts with other mods (e.g., Cinders, Convergence) are beyond our control.
4. Online Bans and Account Penalties
Dark Souls III utilizes an anti-cheat system that flags account data inconsistencies.
- Offline Play Recommended: The Archthrones mod utilizes a private server (DS3OS) to mitigate ban risks. However, connecting to official servers with modded files or altered save data may result in a “Penalized” (Softban) account status.
- User Responsibility: You accept full responsibility for the safety of your Steam account. darksoulsarchthrones.com is not responsible if your account is restricted from official multiplayer features due to the use of mods.
5. External Links and Downloads
This Website may contain links to external websites (e.g., Nexus Mods, GitHub, Patreon) that are not provided or maintained by us.
We do not guarantee the accuracy, relevance, timeliness, or completeness of any information on these external websites. Furthermore, we do not host the mod files directly. We act as a directory pointing to the official download repositories. We are not responsible for the security or content of third-party sites.
6. Accuracy of Information
The Dark Souls: Archthrones project is currently in a Demo/Active Development phase. Game mechanics, weapon stats, and installation methods change frequently with new patches (e.g., v1.1.4, v1.2).
While we strive to keep our wiki updated, we make no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, about the completeness or accuracy of the information provided. Strategies that work in the Demo version may change in the full release.
