📋 About This Mod

Dark Souls 3: The Beast Presence

A project that merges the dying world of Dark Souls 3 with the haunting dread of Bloodborne.

Here, foreign blood seeps into ash, cursed beasts stalk forgotten roads, and the cycle of fire twists under a nightmare it was never meant to bear.

⚙ Current full support game version(v1. 15. 2)

⚠ Early WIP:

This mod is at a very early stage. Expect plenty of rough edges, bugs and placeholder mechanics.

Currently only stable on game version 1. 15. 2

I highly recommend using my mod with SeamlessCoop

SeamlessCoop creates its own .co2 save file, so you don't have to worry about your saves or ban (But keep in mind that you install this mod at your own risk.)

Installation:

⚙

Installation Mod Engine 2:

1. Download the latest release of Mod Engine 2

2. Unpack to any location on your disk (Not in the root game folder)

⚙ 

Installation SeamlessCoop mod:

1. Download the latest version from the official page on nexusmods - SeamlessCoop (Big thanks to Yui)

2. Put SeamlessCoop folder into the root folder of Mod Engine 2 (Where the modengine2_launcher.exe file is located)

⚙ 

Installation The Beast Presence mod:

1. Download the latest version of this mod from Files tab

2. Unpack content of the archive into the root folder of Mod Engine 2 (Where the modengine2_launcher.exe file is located)

Agree to overwrite the config_darksouls3 file!

This is my customized configuration file for the mod to work properly!

3. So don't forget to set the password in the SeamlessCoop\ds3sc_settings.ini file.

4. Use “launchmod_darksouls3.bat” to launch the game

ATTENTION!⚠

Rotty13 and I updated his mod that adds rally mechanics from bb. Now the new DLL version works for version 1. 15. 2 and is compatible with ModEngine 2.

Of course, he did 99% of the reverse engineering work, and I was his support and assistant.

It took a whole month, but it was worth it.

But I'm very happy that the result was finally achieved and you can enjoy this health restoration mechanic.

Run to download and try it. Enjoy!
