Modding advice π Clean after unpacking DS3
Hi, I'm trying to clean up some space after installing the Cinders mod. The game was using some space, but after using uxm to install the mod, it was almost 50GB before I even installed the mod.
Is there any way to "repackage" the game again with the modded files? And what can I delete without breaking the game?

I've been wondering about this since i started modding dark souls 3, i genuinely have been lucky figuring out how to EMEVD script code in tools like DarkScript 3, but I was mostly wondering, why aren't there many tutorials on the different things you can actually do?

Request π‘ Scrolling Souls download
I'm looking for the scrolling souls file by Dropoff.
Pictured link here: https://kotaku.com/dark-souls-scrolling-texture-mod-chooses-violence-1847285374
TLDR: It's a Texture mod that causes al the textures to scroll constantly. I'm planning on using this and a few other mods like floppysouls to do an LSD challenge run. Unfortunately, Dropoff has removed the mod from all available sources i could find. If anyone has the files and would be willing to link them, I'd really appreciate it.
Alternative mods, or additional mod suggestions for an LSD run are also welcome.

Question π DSR randomizer saves?
Hi, I want to try a randomizer for Dark Souls Remastered, but Iβm worried about my save files.
Can randomizing the game corrupt or overwrite my existing saves? If so, whatβs the best way to back them up and avoid losing them?
Also, after playing randomized, is it possible to go back to the normal unrandomized game? How would I do that?
Thanks!

I can get it running normally but cant figure out how to do it with ME3 and would love to use the profile features this tool has to be able to go between "vanilla" and mods like Convergence but I cant even get Honest Merchant working with Seamless Co-op using the tool.

Mod recommendation π Male armor on female char
TLDR, I mean male armor VARIANTS on female characters. Pharis' hat is the big stand-out here: The male variant is long and pointy, the female variant is not. I'd like to have the pointing hat on a female character, game no let me do this, I sad.
(25 character title limit... aight, I supposed there's a reason for it.)
> My dumazz idea for doing this (if the mod I'm looking for doesn't exist already):
Idk how the game works in the background, but my first thought at a solution would be swapping the nude textures and SFX between genders while keeping everything else the same. It's a duct-tape solution, yes, and it means telling the game you're making a male character when you actually intend to make a female character (which leads to problems of its own), but one would almost think it'd work on paper.
Optional additions for QoL:
1.) Since we're telling the game we want to make a male when we instead want to make a female, it'd help the user if the mod swapped the menu text for selecting a gender at character creation.
2.) To keep the darkmoon knightess from deadgendering you (her dialogue when she dies specifically calls you a man or a woman), might wanna invert the checks for NPC dialogue that references gender so the NPCs refer to you as a female when the game thinks you're a male and as a female when the game thinks you're a male.
3.) The vanilla game's default sliders are gonna make your female characters look masculine since you're telling the game you're making a male, so swapping the default slider values for both genders at character creation would solve that.
4.) If you REALLY wanna put some polish on it, have a way to revert the mod's changes without leaving the game, though it basically means doubling the work (plus extra cuz troubleshooting). I don't have braincells (all my thinking is done by a fish on a hamster wheel), but the first idea that comes to mind is making a "necklace" slot that can only hold the Invisible Necklace of Mod Reversion (better name pending). Looted from the same corpse as your get-out-of-jail key at the start of the game, and as a backup also a 100% drop rate item from channelers. Whenever the game would check for gender, it first checks for a necklace in this slot. If necklace=TRUE, game acts like vanilla game. if necklace=FALSE, game acts like modded game.
Mind you all that text is from someone who's never made a mod for this game before and only recently downloaded their first mod at all, so fuck if I know what the consequences of any of this are or how easy/ hard it'd be to implement. Anywho, thx for reading and I hope you have a good day.

Help π΄ DS2 Edit Spell Duration
Hello, This might be a dumb question but how do you edit spell duration in DS map studio for DS2? More specifically I am trying to edit cast light to make the duration longer but I am not explicitly seeing anything duration related in the params https://imgur.com/a/oHhYJzI. Does anyone know if it would be Unk35, 36, or 37?
Edit: I just realized the screenshot shows soul arrow but it shows the same information when clicking cast light

Help π΄ Reshade REST addon crash
Hey everyone, I'm hitting a brick wall trying to get REST (ReshadeEffectShaderToggler) working with Dark Souls Remastered.
The Issue:Β The game boots fine, and the addon works perfectly in the main menu. However, the exact millisecond I load into the 3D world and checkΒ anyΒ shader box in the REST add-on menu (even lightweight ones like Curves or Vignette), the game instantly crashes to desktop.
What I've already tried:
- Downgrading and mixing/matching versions (Tested ReShade 5.8.0, 5.9.2, 6.2.0 and current alongside REST versions v.1.1.0, v1.3.9 and current).
- Disabling all in-game graphics settings that mess with render targets (In-game AA and Ambient Occlusion are completely turned OFF).
- Disabling all background overlays (Discord, RTSS, GeForce Experience, Steam overlay).
Has anyone successfully bypassed this crash for DSR, or is there a specific stable fork/version combination I missed?
Thanks in advance!

Request π‘ Roll cooldown for DSR
I'm interested in trying out Dark Souls Remastered with a significant cooldown to the roll ability, like 10 seconds for example. It seems more challenging to implement now than I expected. I've only today decided to make an attempt at making this mod, I've been reading about modding on a website called soulsmodding dot com, I have some idea about how Dark Souls modding is done but I do not know how I would approach the issue of adding a cooldown to the roll ability. I came here to see if anyone might have knowledge on what approach could be taken to accomplish this result.

Request π‘ Vanity Armor Mod
I really would love a mod that allows for vanity armor. By this I mean I can wear any armor I want for stats and then have a layered armor on top of it for fashion (I know Elden Ring Convergence mod has something like this). I'm aware this is in another large content mod, but I wanted to beat base Ds3 before getting that. I've looked around for a while but can't seem to find a mod like this on its own.
