# Elden Ring Proton Patcher
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
A tool aimed at enhancing the experience when playing the game on linux through proton or natively on windows.
|
||||
|
||||
## Warning
|
||||
|
||||
**This tool is based on patching the game executable through hex-edits. However it is done in a safe and non-destructive way, that ensures the patched executable is never run with EAC enabled (unless explicity told to do so). Use at your own risk!**
|
||||
A tool aimed at enhancing the experience when playing the game on Linux via Proton or natively on Windows. It safely patches `eldenring.exe`, that is created in a temporary subdirectory and deleted on shutdown, via hex-edits, ensuring the patched executable is run without EAC if no `--with-eac` flag is set. Use it at your own risk.
|
||||
|
||||
## Dependencies
|
||||
|
||||
- Python >= 3.8
|
||||
- Python ≥ 3.8
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
1. Copy the file `er-patcher` to the game directory.
|
||||
2. In steam, set the game launch options to `python er-patcher ARGS -- %command%` See [Features](#features) for available options.
|
||||
- Example: `python er-patcher --all --rate 30 --disable-rune-loss -- %command%`
|
||||
- Example using the [seamless co-op](https://www.nexusmods.com/eldenring/mods/510) mod: `python er-patcher --all --executable launch_elden_ring_seamlesscoop.exe -- %command%`
|
||||
- Example using [MangoHud](https://github.com/flightlessmango/MangoHud) and wine fullscreen FSR: `python er-patcher --rate 144 -uvca -- env WINE_FULLSCREEN_FSR=1 MANGOHUD=1 MANGOHUD_CONFIG=histogram %command%`
|
||||
3. Launch the game through steam. `er-patcher` automatically launches a patched version of `eldenring.exe` with EAC disabled.
|
||||
2. Set the game's launch options to `python er-patcher ARGS -- %command%` in Steam. See [Features](#features) for available options.
|
||||
- Example: `python er-patcher --all -r 30 --disable-rune-loss -- %command%`
|
||||
- Example with [MangoHud](https://github.com/flightlessmango/MangoHud) and Wine fullscreen FSR: `python er-patcher -r 144 -uvca -- env WINE_FULLSCREEN_FSR=1 MANGOHUD=1 MANGOHUD_CONFIG=histogram %command%`
|
||||
- Example with the [Seamless Co-op](https://www.nexusmods.com/eldenring/mods/510) mod: `python er-patcher --all -x launch_elden_ring_seamlesscoop.exe -- %command%`
|
||||
3. Run the game on Steam. `er-patcher` automatically runs a patched `eldenring.exe` without EAC.
|
||||
|
||||
Note: There might be some distros (e.g. older Ubuntu releases) that launch python 2 instead of 3 when running `python`. In that case you'll need to replace `python` with `python3` in the launch option line.
|
||||
Note: Some distros (like old Ubuntu versions) run Python 2 instead of 3 when running `python`. You must use `python3` in that case.

## Windows Support
|
||||
The tool works just as well on Windows. This launch option line works if you installed Python from Microsoft Store:
|
||||
|
||||
The patcher works just as well on windows. The following launch option line works in case you e.g. installed Python from Microsoft Store:
|
||||
`python er-patcher -r 165 --all -- %command%`
|
||||
|
||||
> `python er-patcher --rate 165 --all -- %command%`
|
||||
Note: It opens a Python console that closes by itself on shutdown. Use `pythonw` if you find it annoying. `python` needs to be in PATH for Windows to find it.
|
||||
|
||||
Note: This spawns a python console which will close by itself after the game has finished running. If you find this annoying you can try using `pythonw` instead. In any case `python` needs to be in PATH for windows to find it.
|
||||
|
||||
## How it works
|
||||
|
||||
When the game is launched through steam, the tool creates a patched version of `eldenring.exe` in a temporary subdirectory while leaving the original intact. As long the flag `--with-eac` is not set, the tool modifies the steam launch command to launch the patched executable instead of `start_protected_game.exe`, thefore ensuring that the patched exe is never run with EAC enabled. After the game is closed, the patched executable is removed.
