Follow Using Seamless Coop with other mods. As of version 1. 1. 0, dyes are visible to other players as long as they also have the mod installed. This mod doesn't impact matchmaking, so you can still co-op with or invade people who don't have it installed.
Installing with The Convergence
Update: This mod is shipped by default with The Convergence version 2. 1. 2, so you don't need to do anything to install it. Armor dyes are accessible at sites of grace by default.
Installing with Reforged
Update: The underlying dye system is integrated into ELDEN RING: Reforged version 1. 2. 3, so you don't need to install this. Palettes can be unlocked by completing archery challenges.
Installing with anything else
This mod should simply work with any other mods installed without any manual merging required. Feel free to comment if you discover a compatibility issue with another mod.

- Check the mod's posts or comments for user-made guides—the description is sparse, so the community likely has tips.
