📋 About This Mod

Important: You need to download both main files (Executables and latest LX. X version) and extract them to a single folder.
Note: If your game is installed in a system protected folder or is launched as an administrator, you might need to run EMU Light as an administrator, otherwise the game will simply ignore EMU Light's key presses.

    []RPG style magic and items keys (Create a dedicated key for each attuned spell and equipped item).

    []Individual keys for all 6 pouch slots (Vanilla ER only lets you bind key combinations for 4 pouch slots).

    []Additional input options for Controllers (Dedicated Switch and/or Event button, that changes the functionality of all other buttons when held).

    []Roll and R1 cooldown (Adjust action queue behavior by creating a cooldown time when consequent rolls or R1 wont register).

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Huge community trust with 1,345 endorsements and over 82k downloads.
  • Safe for online play, so you won't get banned for using it.
  • Splitting roll and sprint is a game-changer for precise dodging.

⚠️ Cons

  • No explicit install instructions provided, so you'll have to figure it out.
  • AHK macro might trigger anti-cheat if not configured correctly, despite claims.
  • Last updated July 2026, but no guarantee it works with future patches.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Elden Ring players who want finer control over their inputs, especially those who find the default roll-sprint combo awkward.

📦 Install:Medium· 5-10 minutes

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure to disable EAC (Easy Anti-Cheat) before installing, but the mod claims safe for online, so verify the latest compatibility.
  • Test the roll and sprint keys separately in a low-stakes area to get used to the new bindings.
  • Use the automatic save backup feature to avoid losing progress if something goes wrong.
