WELCOME TO DAWNSHARD

Dawnshard is a server emulator project aimed at enabling continued play of
Dragalia Lost.

Ever since the official servers were discontinued in November 2022, Dawnshard
has been in development as a fan-led reimplementation of the game's web backend.

ABOUT

Dawnshard is attempting to reimplement the server infrastructure of Dragalia
Lost. It aims to do so in a vanilla fashion, i.e. with limited changes to the
original mechanics of the game. Though not all features are yet implemented, the
game is in a playable state and it is possible to progress largely as normal.


HOW TO PLAY

Setting up access to the server involves configuring a modified version of the
original Dragalia Lost app to connect to this server at https://dawnshard.co.uk.
It is possible to do so on both Android and iOS without jail-breaking or rooting
your device. It is also possible to do this on an Android emulator, even though
the original game could not be played on emulators. If you encounter any issues
during the set-up process, consider joining the community Discord server.


ANDROID

 1. Ensure you have the original Dragalia Lost app installed. The Dragalipatch
    app works by taking the files from the original app and modifying them.
 2. Download the Dragalipatch app by LukeFZ from the GitHub releases page.
 3. Enter https://dawnshard.co.uk into the 'Server Address' field.
 4. Leave the CDN address field blank. You can try entering
    https://cdn.minty.sbs if this is not accepted.
 5. Press the 'Patch App' button in the lower right corner.
 6. Wait for the app to finish patching the Dragalia Lost app. Once it is done,
    press Install on the screen that follows.

Example Dragalipatch inputs


IOS

For information on how to play on iOS, please see this tweet, containing a guide
on Google Docs. At a high level, you will need to use Sideloadly to install a
pre-patched IPA file that allows configuring the server address.


FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


CAN I LINK AN ACCOUNT TO SAVE MY PROGRESS ACROSS DEVICES?

Yes, if you follow the prompts to link an account in-game, you will be taken to
the BaaS website. This is a replacement for the Nintendo account linking system.
If you create a new account and link it to your game's account, you will be able
to access your progress from another device linked to the same account.


DO I HAVE TO START OVER?

It is no longer possible to recover your progress from the original servers.
However, you can import a save using the account linking system. You can upload
a JSON file after logging into the BaaS with save data to be applied to the
server. You can use a preset save file, such as this maxed out save file, to
skip parts of the game you do not want to play again.


WHAT HAS BEEN IMPLEMENTED?

The majority of core gameplay mechanics have been implemented:

 * Completing quests
 * The Halidom castle builder
 * Co-op
 * Kaleidoscape
 * Upgrading weapons, wyrmprints, dragons


WHAT IS STILL BEING WORKED ON?

Here is a non-exhaustive list of features that are still being developed:

 * Friends and alliances
 * Alberian Battle Royale
 * Astral raids
 * Endeavours: some are available and are being slowly added
