Location Name Replacements

🎮 **A simple and fun mod that changes the names of various game locations into memes, inside jokes, puns and more! **

This mod is purely for fun and to make you laugh, it is not a serious modification. Not all locations have been renamed, but enough to change the mood of the game. Please enjoy the absurdity! 😄

⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTE

This mod will change **every** instance of the location name, including:

  • **Map**
  • **Blessing Points**
  • **Item Description**
  • **subtitle**
  • **and all other text**

This is achieved via bulk text replacement in Smithbox, so **syntax errors** may occur. I'm not going to manually go through thousands of lines of text to make sure they sound appropriate.

🛠️ Installation Guide

**Mod Engine 2 installation method:**

  • Download Mod Engine 2, you can place it anywhere, it doesn’t have to be in the game directory
  • Make sure there is a "msg" folder in the "mod" folder of Mod Engine 2. If not, you can create it yourself.
  • Extract this module to a location of your choice
  • Place the contents of the "msg" folder into a folder of the same name in the Mod Engine 2 "mod" folder
  • Use the batch file launchmod_eldenring to start the Elden Ring

---

🗑️ Uninstall method

Simply delete the DCX files in the msg folder, or the entire msg folder if this is the only mod you have installed that uses that folder.

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.
