PSA A safe-space for discussing mods for Elden Ring!

87 Upvotes

Hello Tarnished! As many of you know, the discussion of game mods on /r/EldenRing, the official Elden Ring discord server, and on the Elden Ring Subreddit discord server - has been banned due to TOS and EULA concerns (which is reasonable ngl). However, because of that decision there has been a lack of a safe, dedicated space to discuss and educate each other on how to mod, and to share mods for Elden Ring.

This subreddit is meant to remedy that situation :)


The subreddit was originally created by another user, but they did not build upon the sub at all and were eventually suspended by Reddit admins for unrelated reasons (idk why so don't ask lol), so I requested the subreddit and was granted the request. Besides building a custom sub appearance, enabling automod, and bringing plenty of updates to the sub's settings, I've also created this simple ruleset:

  • The Golden Rule - i.e. be nice to each other!
  • Stay on topic. - all posts should be mod-related & for Elden Ring!
  • Adult themed mods should be clearly distinguished as NSFW. - pretty straight-forward.
  • No sales, sales links, donations, or spam. - linking to your YT or Twitch is okay as long as it is showcasing a mod, but repeated self-promo will be considered spam.

With that out of the way, welcome to /r/EldenRingMods! We look forward to your contributions to the sub, and if you have any ideas don't be afraid to modmail us. The subreddit is still new so changes will be sure to come :)


Also! If you are interested in helping us moderate this subreddit or /r/EldenRingBuilds, please send in a modmail explaining any experience you may have, and why you would be a good fit!

PSA Seamless Coop Update and Common DLC related bug fixes

26 Upvotes

This post will compile solutions to common issues in Seamless Co-op and the DLC, such as infinite loading screens, crashes, quest progress glitches, and workarounds like the Glorious Merchant mod and Cheat Engine. I will try to update this as much as possible when new solutions are found or if the information is found to be incorrect.

Infinite Loading/Crashing Issues with seamless coop

Symptoms - Stuck in a loading screen that loads only partially and then stops. - Freezing immediately upon creating a new character.

Solutions

1.  Using the Latest Debug Tool:
• The latest 8.6.0 update of the debug tool can help fix this issue.
• First, download the tool from the provided link [here](https://github.com/Nordgaren/Elden-Ring-Debug-Tool)
• Extract the files using a 7zip extractor and save them to a local folder.
• Follow the instructions in the README file to download any additional necessary tools.
• Disable EAC (Easy Anti-Cheat) by saving the EAC disabling tool in your game files folder, where your Seamless Coop mod and Eldenring.exe launcher are located. Drag and drop the EAC disabler over the Seamless Coop launcher to disable EAC.
• Launch the game using the Seamless Coop launcher, open your bugged character save, and then launch the debug tool.
• In the debug tool, select the “misc.” tab at the bottom right and enter values “105” and “115” separately, then click enable.
• The power icon should turn green if everything is set up correctly. If it stays black or orange, the game files might not be running properly, or EAC wasn’t disabled correctly.
• Backup your save and ensure not to load the file in online mode to avoid potential bans.

Quest Progress/Soft Locks

Symptoms - Unable to progress in quests. - Soft locks where the game doesn't proceed as expected.

Common Workarounds

  1. Glorious Merchant Mod:

    • This mod allows you to buy items you would have obtained through quest progress, bypassing the need to complete buggy quest paths.

    Installation Steps:

  • Download the mod's DLL.
  • Place the DLL in the same folder where you extracted ModEngine 2.
  • Edit the ModEngine 2 configuration file (toml) to include the line specified on the Glorious Merchant's page.
  • Save the configuration file and restart the game.
  1. Cheat Engine:
  • This tool can help modify game variables and bypass certain bugs. Use with caution, as it may affect game stability and may get you banned if EAC is active.

Steps: - Download and install Cheat Engine. - Load the game and attach Cheat Engine to the game process. - Modify relevant variables or items to progress past the bug.

  1. A temporary solution to the issue provided by Goldfish on the seamless coop discord:

Make backups of your save files before attempting DO AT YOUR OWN RISK

NOTE: You can put the provided steam_appid.txt file into your game folder and launch the game from eldenring.exe to start vanilla in offline mode.

   -go to appdata > roaming > elden ring
⁠-There will be 2 sets of files in these folders, one set named .co2 and one     .sl2 (co2 is seamless coop and sl2 is vanilla)
⁠-Cut, not copy, the vanilla .sl2 files somewhere else, like a documents folder
⁠-Rename the .co2 files to .sl2, this will convert them into vanilla characters
⁠-Launch the** vanilla game in offline mode** (read NOTE above), and complete the battle.
⁠-Once the battle is over, close the game, change the converted file type back into .co2, and put the vanilla saves back in
⁠-Continue seamless coop normally

Hello! I updated the game today to the latest version and it's giving me stability problems. I had to restart the PC to be able to open the mod, and now it closes by itself. Can I go back to a previous version? Where can I see if the creators say anything about this?

Question Reliable way to invade my Friends in Seamless Co-op?

Upvotes

I'm a veteran player and want to take some friends who are new to Fromsoft games through Elden Ring.

Personally I really enjoy invasions as a part of the game, but have done enough PvP to know there some invasions would absolutely make them have a miserable time.

So I was thinking of occasionally dipping out and invading my friends with some lore appropriate characters I've made over the years. See if I can get another veteran friend of mine to do s

I saw invasions can be toggled on, but it doesn't look like sharing a password with others player can let you invade them specifically?

If so, does anyone know of something compatible that could allow this?

Thanks!

Misc. Mod Survival mod...is it good or just an afterthought? Is it compatible with convergence?

Upvotes

The title says it all, I'm a huge fan of survival and I've seen this mod from 4 years ago, of which I don't really find too many videos and coverage.

Has anybody tried it? Is it good?

And besides, is it compatible with convergence?

(I'm still on the verge of buying elden ring for PC, waiting for a sale actually, I've finished it on PS5)

Thanks!

I don't really post, but jesus christ i got a good fight against one of the new reliquary bosses in the new convergence update with my main underworld mage, Listening to Bang Bang (New Version) (feat. Adam Levine) of course. So many moments just match so perfectly to the beat, my favorite at 1:05-1:12 with the wild dodge with the weapon art for galvanic culling blade. You'll probably notice foxy too lol, perfect timing at 0:46 killed me. I made a desktop application for 1/5000 chance of withered foxy, he also removes my ability to do anything for a solid second too, very fun.

General Discussion I love From to do a dedicated coop fantasy game.

10 Upvotes

Really enjoyed playing through the game with seamless on and it made me want a full game built from the ground up. Exploring a whole game of the same scale but being able to do it with a party would be amazing. From seem happy with the current multiplayer arrangement and game style so I don’t imagine they would be super interested in something like that unfortunately. I just think there’s a gap in the market for people who want a great fantasy RPG experience without it being turn based like Balders gate. I did enjoy going through BG3 with some friends but it’s not hugely my thing. But yeah, in a perfect world I’d have a fantasy game inspired by the likes of LoTR, DnD and Warhammer fantasy with Fromsofts character builds, combat system and art direction to play with some friends.

Graphics Mod Modmaking Help Needed

6 Upvotes

Hello everyone

I'm pretty new to editing regulation files and I'm using Smithbox 2.1.0 to do so.

I am trying to make spirit summons act like normal NPCs visually; so their body models wouldn't fade/lose opacity when close to the camera, I wanna make their models act just like real NPCs, solid and no fading effect when too close to the camera.

I tried to do it myself by messing around A LOT in the NpcParam and Nepheli Loux Puppet row as a test but I couldn't achieve what I wanted.

Would you guys please help me on this? I've been on it for quite some time now and the situation just doesn't get any better.

NPC Mod How to fix Modding Spirit Ashes DMG

2 Upvotes

Can someone help explain to me how spirit damage works? Im getting very confused when trying to make them stronger or weaker.

Why are their damage numbers for mobs vs bosses so different? A maxed out cleanrot finlay will do about 300 dmg to a boss but only 100 dmg to regular mobs. Does anyone know what parameters are affecting this? I cant seem to find anything on it other than the difference between PVP and PVE dmg numbers.

If I make them strong enough to kill mobs they end up killing bosses in seconds. But if I balance them out for bosses they end up doing very little dmg to mobs. Its confusing the heck out of me.

General Discussion Shield list for Elden Ring Convergence

5 Upvotes

I can't seem to find out what is and isn't in the Convergence mod. Also, this is the first time I've ever played a modded game (well over 20 years of gaming).

I was going to try a great shield build, and was going to plot out a gear game plan, but as mentioned above, I can't seem to find a source online for what great shields are in game and where they are.

Aside from that, Convergence has been amazing so far.

Tried to update this https://www.nexusmods.com/eldenring/mods/3879

All seemed like it went well, i'm not using any other mods with mod engine 2. Smithbox confirms that I upgrade params and no other changes need to be made, and then I hit save.

Am I missing anything obvious? I'm getting "Save Game Corrupted" when launching.

General Discussion Reforged Boss Frustration

23 Upvotes

I gotta say, some of these Reforged bosses feel pretty dang bad to fight.

The flaming Redmane Lion before Radahn, for example, is really cool. Except for the fire breath attack. That move simply sucks to fight against. I died several times with the boss at barely a sliver because I either got caught by the fire even though I ran away before the animation even started, or I ran into a box/bench for a half second, or I got so cornered that the camera was wacky while trying to dodge after.

I just now rage quit while fighting this onyx guy at the end of secret tunnel in Altus. He has this gravity meteor attack that he just spams over and over again. I try to heal after and he chucks a gravity ball, then just does it again. It's like fighting a gank squad in vanilla that braindead spams L2 and spells but with infinite FP. The best thing to do is just run around in a circle and look at the pretty colors. I'm not trying to watch Fantasia here. The boss is not that hard, and I can be incredibly patient. I just need a couple tries to learn the attacks. But it isn't like...fun to learn. This feels like fighting Gaius and getting double hit by that dang charge attack. An absolute low point of the DLC for me.

In many ways, I'm enjoying Reforged. It's making my favorite game of all time feel somewhat fresh. Convergence turns the whole game into Blasphemous Blade L2 but with more variety, and that just doesn't do it for me. I generally like the difficulty of Reforged. But I run into these bosses obnoxiously often that just feel BS in a distinctly unfun way. It's roughly every other time I sit down to play the game, but these are the two worst and/or most recent offenders.

This is really just a vent because I got genuinely frustrated and tilted.

Edit: I just wanna say the next day that I did beat the Onxy Lord in like...3 more tries (a bit of warm up after work) and he isn't even that hard, but I do think he's terribly designed. Legit 1/10 from me. The dragons in Skyrim are somehow more interesting to fight and they were top 3 biggest gaming let downs of all time. At least this thing had 0 hype so it couldn't disappoint.
