📋 About This Mod

I sculpted new horns in Blender for the Great Horned Headband because I did not like the default horns, and changed the color to black. I left the Shining Horned Headband horns as is, since I felt they were fine as they are, I simply resized and move them, and colored them black.

I found a way to make the Great Horns glow too, but it replaces the Shining Horns file, so pick only one of what you like.

The Eyes are from my Glowing Eyes mod.

The chest armor is from my Skimpy Deathbed Dress mod.

How to install Mods.

Download and extract Mod Engine 2 and follow the instructions in the README.txt.

Download and extract UXM

1. Unpack the game with UXM. Keep in mind this will increase the storage space the game takes up, which will be about 95. 6 GB when Unpacking is done.

2. After Unpacking is done, click Patch so the eldenring.exe will use the unpacked files.

3. Go to the parts folder created by UXM where the eldenring.exe is and drop the .dcx files there. (Back up the original files in case you want to revert)

4. Launch the game OFFLINE with EasyAntiCheat disabled. You can use the provided Disable EAC file if you need it.
