"You can register for the event by going to the “roles” channel and react to the Miriel bot to gain the “Elden Ring Modathon 2022 Participant” role.

When uploading your mod to NexusMods, add the "ERModathon2022" tag to your mod to be eligible for judging."


Is there any way the Nexus Mods tag alone can be the requirement? Personally, I don't want to register a Discord account for a Nexus Mods event but LeKevDev's Discord server requires that you claim/register your account before you can react or message on the server. 


EDIT: From Discord's website they, like every other service, collect a lot of data. For me, it's not a matter of trusting or distrusting Discord but a matter of minimizing how much of my personal information is collected in the first place.

If you just add the tag to your submission you should be good. Dm me your submission as well if you don't feel comfortable with registering your Discord.

I might be an idiot, but how do you add tags lol? Just stick #ERModathon2022 in the description?

Also, are adult mods eligable? Not that I've got many adults mods or anything >_>

I would pay someone a $1000 myself just to teach me how to make my own mods. If anyone sees this, and knows what they are doing, feel free to reach out to me. Literally train me on discord by sharing your screen and give me a small demonstration on the software and applications I need to create my own stuff. I've been able to mess around with cheat engine, but I want to actually create content. NPCs, armors, weapons, etc.

There you will find all needed software and templates, also if you will be kind - you will find support.


Or if you are solo player - watch these videos:

The modding is not so difficult as may seem at the beginning. Yabber and FLVER Editor are enought for basic modding: retextures, hiding meshes, materials swap.

Actually this guide is sufficient to start modding with custom meshes, but you will need the Blender and BloodborneTools:

Most of the tools from modding prior souls games can be used. That said, all the old souls games modding tools are community-made.
