✨ Module introduction

This mod brings Malikus back into the game world in the form of a "Wandering Soul", allowing players to see him again during their journey to the Junction!

🌙 Features

  • **Ghost Form Returns**: Malikis appears in ghost form outside the Temple of the Beast, visible at night
  • **Non-interactive character**: He is just a spectator and cannot be interacted with.
  • **Loyal to the original work**: Retains the orthodox settings of the game without destroying the continuity of the plot

📍 Appearance location

The ghost of Malikith appears outside the Temple of the Beast, where Guranga sometimes howls. He looks more like a panther than a canine, but who knows...

🔧 Installation instructions

The module contains three separate files and can be combined with basically any other module:

  • **Map File**: Place the modified Gray Dragon Wasteland-Beast Temple map into the `mod/map/mapstudio` folder
  • **Event File**: Put the modified `m60_51_43_00.emevd.dcx` into the `mod/event` folder
  • **Parameter adjustment**: Use Smithbox to import and merge the provided .csv files

💡 Technical details

Making this mod was more complicated than expected, requiring dealing with event files and the DarkScript system. After a lot of hard work, Malikis was finally able to be reborn as a ghost in the Kelid region after being defeated.

🎮 Usage suggestions

It is recommended to use Mod Engine 2 to load this mod. If you are still using an older version of the game, congratulations! The mod should work fine. If it is a newer version, you may need to wait for the author to update or manually adjust relevant parameters.

*Hopefully this small change brings some comfort to Malikis, who has suffered enough. *

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
