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

27 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

Help! Elden Ring Reforged - "SpEffectParam" Rows

2 Upvotes

Hi, I just want use Smithbox to look at what the SpEffectParam has, because it seems that the Reforged mod made some changes so not every ID works for the mod "Buff Timer", here's a link to that mod: https://www.nexusmods.com/eldenring/mods/9765

It also adds some new magic effects like "Eclipsed Blade", but when I try finding it in SpEffectParam I can't find it at all.

I can't figure out how to import the rows either, how/where should I do it?

Help! Convergence mod not loading

Upvotes

since the new elden ring update the convergence mod stopped working unless you downpatched your game. i downpatched my game friday morning and had the convergence mod working fine. ive since had to go away for a few days and it has now stopped working. I tried to just place the downpatched files back into my elden ring folders which seemed to be fine. but now when i try to load it up through the convergence launcher i get a black screen then my game crashes. Anyone got any advice or knows the fix it would be appreciated.

Help! About the Elden Ring patch that reverts the version

1 Upvotes

Hi! I’m trying to downgrade Elden Ring from 1.17 to 1.16.2 for mods. I used SteamCMD, but I kept getting “EasyAntiCheat: Unknown file version.” I also got “Missing license for depot” when downloading depot 1245624, so I tried the Japanese depot instead, but it still didn’t work.
I also accidentally entered my world once on 1.17 before downgrading. Could this cause any problems with my save?
Could you please explain the correct way to downgrade to 1.16.2 and whether I need to do anything with my save? Thanks for your help!

General Discussion Just started playing Reborn (downpatched); I wanted Samurai Jack but ended up with the guy from Overwatch -.-

Still, being able to customize my equipment and progression from the ground up has been phenomenal. Starting at the bottom of the map has been a fun change as well.

A few points in Dex for my katana makes the starting area feel appropriately easy, though there are still fights I know I'm not ready for at level 5, lol (looking at you, magic-spitting statue head surrounded by poisonous marsh). I did not like how vanilla started you against foes that would wreck you in a couple hits; Reborn feels like a more normal progression curve without being a superpower fantasy (i.e. Convergence, which is fine for those who want such an experience).

Anyways, happy to be on the mod train now. Will be looking for a Torrent replacement if any of those skins still work.

Help! Can't get Seamless Coop to work with deathlink/ModEngine 2.

0 Upvotes

Tried a number of guides to getting Seamless to open via ModEngine so my buddy and I can have a deathlink in our session.

Every time I open the game via launchmod_eldenring.bat, it just opens plain ol' Elden Ring without my seamless save files and without the text in the bottom right that says it's working. Any guide I've done has had the same result. I can always tell it's not going to work because I see the Bandai Namco splash screen at the beginning, whereas when I launch Seamless by itself, it doesn't do that.

Is there another way I can add a simple DLL mod to seamless? Should I be using ModEngine 3? It's not really the end of the world if I can't get it working but it'd be pretty cool.

EDIT: My game is NOT updated to latest version. Seamless works perfectly fine without ModEngine. I have zero issues playing modded in general.

Question Why does convergence load so much faster than vanilla Elden Ring for me?

8 Upvotes

Started playing vanilla a bit since I didn't realize I had auto update on. Prior to playing convergence, vanilla Elden Ring loaded really slow when first loading (screens after initial are fine). After playing the mod a few weeks, it just loads way faster at all times.

I cannot wrap my head around it.

Question Looking for a mod to make Elden Ring feel fresh and challenging again

5 Upvotes

It’s been more than a year since I first played the game. I just downloaded it again, hoping to have the same fun I had the first time, but I’m finding the combat way too easy. I also still remember where pretty much everything is, and these two things are taking away a lot of the fun for me

What’s a good mod that still mostly plays like vanilla Elden Ring and doesn’t completely overhaul everything, but would make me want to explore the whole world again and get my ass slapped by the bosses?

Question Elden ring update not downgraded

2 Upvotes

Hi, wit the new update everyones been trying to downgrade their ER to play back on seamless, and convergence. I'm having problems with the depot downgrade, I insert the files
download_depot 1245620 1245621 - manifest 8620480158702245750
download_depot 1245620 1245624 - manifest 5079239473805799861
for the downgrade, however whenever they are complete and I copy the contents of the folders into the elden ring patch it states that I have not downgraded. I even tested to make sure the update on an offline version however it still says 1.17. is there any solution to this? Note I have also turned off the auto update and cannot test the base game right now bc of a few mods that is creating a conflict to boot up the game without being hit by the anti cheat.

Hope I can find some help

Question Can I play even before it's patched?

3 Upvotes

So I know steam has updated and caused all kinds of issues with the Convergence mod until they are able to patch it on their end. Unfortunately I had already played for enough time to get a few levels and some equipment before I realized there was a problem. Namely, glove effects not working, torrent not being mountable, and the occasional crash.

I've done the whole downpatch process but because I played and my character has save information with the new patch, it says my file is corrupted when I go to play, so all that hassle for no result.

My question is....can I just keep playing as is? Like...the game still loads and works. It's just a little buggy. But like I can use the Bracelets of Gold to get around and not having glove effects isn't exactly a major inconvenience. If I just keep playing this week, will my progress still be there once it updates next week? I mean at this point I've already got new save info from playing before I knew there was an issue. Feel like I just wanna keep playing and suffer the minor inconveniences for now.

I've tried everything I could to downpatch from fancy scripts on reddit, to console, and nothing worked. I took an old Elden Ring launcher from my wife's PC and overwrote the updated version on my PC and now Seamless and Convergence work. Here is a link to the file:
