I recently got Dark Souls for the PC on Steam, and the tutorial and all the control reminders are only for an Xbox 360 controller. Is there any way to change this so I can learn the game for keyboard?

1. Dark Souls 1 Pc

Then, unzip dsmfix08.zip; place all dsmfix. files in the DATA directory (Program Files Steam steamapps common Dark Souls Prepare to Die Edition DATA). Finally, open dsmfixgui.exe and make the desired adjustments (mouse over an option for relevant tooltips); or, edit dsmfix.ini by hand. Dark Souls: Fix Controller Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition is a game that is meant to be played with a controller. While a mouse and keyboard works for most people, many will appreciate the simplicity and setup of using a controller instead. Generally people use Dark Souls Mouse Fix (often called DSMfix) to fix the mouse issues with the game. It's best used in combination with DSfix, which includes general fixes to make the PC version work better on most PCs and allow more options.

With this mod you can change the promts: http://www.nexusmods.com/darksouls/mods/840/?

I know this is not the answer but this is what I did in the same situation:

If you play DS3 just go the key bindings menu and check correspondence between controller and keyboard keys.
If you play DS1 you can find DS3 default settings at the wiki, DS1 keybindings is the same expect that you can't bind dash and jump to two different keys.

I really recommend this way because:
0. installing mods takes time.
1. there are not much of controls, so it doesn't take much time to learn them from the settings.
2. default controls are not perfect, so you anyway would want to check out the settings, learn what is what and change some of it (for example I can highly recomend to rebind lock-on from 'Q' to somewhere where your right hand will be, I use 'O', since I use 'JKLI' to move the camera and 'HU' to attack).
