Elden Ring Proton Patcher
Elden Ring enhancement patches (custom frame rate limits, ultrawide support etc.) seamlessly integrated with Steam.
Elden Ring Proton Patcher aims to enhance the experience when playing the game on Linux via Proton and Windows. It safely patches eldenring.exe, which is created in a temporary subdirectory and deleted on shutdown, via hex-edits, ensuring the patched executable is not run with EAC if no --with-eac flag is set. Use at your own risk.
Dependencies
- Python ≥ 3.8
Usage
- Copy the file
er-patcherto the game directory. - Set the game launch options to
python er-patcher ARGS -- %command%in Steam. See Features for available options.
- Example:
python er-patcher --all -r 90 -l -- %command% - Example with MangoHud and Wine fullscreen FSR:
python er-patcher -acvu -r 144 -- env WINE_FULLSCREEN_FSR=1 MANGOHUD=1 MANGOHUD_CONFIG=histogram %command%
- Launch the game in Steam.
er-patcherautomatically launches a patchedeldenring.exewithout EAC.
Note: Some distros (e.g., older Ubuntu versions) launch Python 2 instead of 3 when running python. You will need to use python3 in that case.
Features

Disable rune loss on death. |
-a or --increase-animation-distance |

Windows support
The tool works just as well on Windows. This launch option line works if you installed Python from Microsoft Store:
python er-patcher --all -r 75 -- %command%
Note: It opens a Python console which closes by itself on shutdown. Use pythonw if you find it annoying. python needs to be in PATH for Windows to find it.
