Help creating a personal mod?

I would like to create a mod for personal reasons, mostly changes to names of places and the like, as part of a project. I'm not sure what else I may want to do as far as further modding is concerned. I can't seem to find any information on how to mod, just how to install them, so any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks.

Hi,

 

The most common ways to mod Dark Souls that I know of are these two:

 

  1. Using DSfix to edit textures (many of the in-game messages are textures, like the "YOU DIED" message);
  2. Use Cheat Engine to change pretty much any variable in the game (names, stats, camera position, etc) but is a long journey if you're not simply using tables created by other people.

Cheat Engine can be used on any game (or software, for that matter). I only used in DS to give myself a bunch of souls so I can get myself to a specific place or build faster. Many people use it to grief other players online, and that's bad for everyone. But if you are interested in trying to reverse-engineer games and try to understand How they work is an interesting tool. Also, some let's players/youtube people use it to make cinematic takes of the game and watnot.

 

There's also this guy https://twitter.com/illusorywall that have been messing with the debug mode of DS, Maybe worth looking into, but I haven't myself.

 

Hope it helps.
