# 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
|
|
1. Copy the file `er-patcher` to the game directory.
|
|
2. Set the game launch options to `python er-patcher ARGS -- %command%` in Steam. See [Features](#features) for available options.
|
|
- Example: `python er-patcher --all -r 90 -l -- %command%`
|
|
- Example with [MangoHud](https://github.com/flightlessmango/MangoHud) and Wine fullscreen FSR: `python er-patcher -acvu -r 144 -- env WINE_FULLSCREEN_FSR=1 MANGOHUD=1 MANGOHUD_CONFIG=histogram %command%`
|
|
3. Launch the game in Steam. `er-patcher` automatically launches a patched `eldenring.exe` without 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
|
|
| Argument | Description |
|
|
| --- | --- |
|
|
| `--all` | Enable all options but `--rate` and gameplay changes like `--disable-rune-loss`. |
|
|
| `-l` or `--disable-rune-loss` | Disable rune loss on death. |
|
|
| `-a` or `--increase-animation-distance` | Fix low frame rate animations for distant entities or at screen edges. |
|
|
| `-r RATE` or `--rate RATE` | Set a custom frame rate limit (default: 60). |
|
|
| `-f` or `--remove-60-hz-fullscreen` | Remove 60 Hz lock in fullscreen (unneeded in Proton). |
|
|
| `-c` or `--remove-ca` | Remove chromatic aberration. |
|
|
| `-v` or `--remove-vignette` | Remove the vignette. |
|
|
| `-s` or `--skip-intro` | Skip intro logos on startup. |
|
|
| `-u` or `--ultrawide` | Remove black bars in non 16:9 screens. |
|
|
| `--with-eac` | Run the game with EAC (use at your own risk). |
|
|
|
|
## 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.
