Queen Marika - Bug Fixes and Visual Improvements

Queen Marika — Bug Fixes and Visual Improvements

A companion patch for GxREDx's Queen Marika. Pure fixes and subtle polish — nothing about the original look or design is changed.

What it fixes

• []Bald Mimic Tear — the Mimic now spawns with Marika's hair (full cloth physics, crown included).[/]

  []Bald co-op & invasion phantoms — phantoms keep the hair too.[/]

  []Missing stockings/garters on the Mimic — shader/material fix so the Mimic copies every mesh correctly.[/]

  []NPC appearance — NPCs wearing affected parts (e.g. Fia) no longer appear bald.[/]

  []Hair clipping — cloth physics retuned; the braid and side strands no longer sink into the skirt and legs.[/]

• []Skin gloss toned down to match the face — no more porcelain-doll sheen.[/]

  []Eye glow softened for a more natural look.[/]

  []Stocking/garter material corrected (deep brown, subtle wet-nylon gloss).[/]

• []Queen Marika by GxREDx[/]

  []Mod Engine 2[/]

• []Install the required mods above first.[/]

  []Download Main and Core Fixes (both required). More Bodies is optional extras.[/]

  []Each option folder contains a parts folder — copy its contents into your ModEngine2 mod\parts folder, overwriting when asked.[/]

  []Follow the README's short "_l" step (a simple copy-rename — required for the Mimic/phantom fix; left out of the zips to halve the download size).[/]

  []Fully restart the game after any file swap — Elden Ring caches part files per session.[/]

• []Cosmetic only — no regulation.bin edits, no balance changes. Safe alongside param mods.[/]

  []One tiny known quirk inherited from the base assets: a faint skin-tone boundary at the thighs (an engine limitation of the per-part blood system — details in the README).[/]

  []This is my first mod — feedback and bug reports are very welcome![/]

• []GxREDx — the original Queen Marika mod, and for kindly allowing this patch.[/]

  []Ryan Reos — the original models and textures (Queen Marika The Eternal / Daemon Girl Business Suit).[/]
