You can find the Dark Souls Remastered and Dark Souls II versions of this mod here (DS1R) and here (DS2).
What does this mod do?
This mod replaces the Knight Set with a custom character model. This is the starting armor for the Knight class. Additionally, it removes the scabbard for the longsword. This is the starting weapon for the Knight class.
Install instructions:
Windows:
1.) I recommend creating a backup of the game directory
2.) Install and configure DS3 Mod Engine. Found here.
3.) Extract the contents of the downloaded zip to your Dark Souls 3 mod directory. This was created during the setup of DS3 Mod Engine in step 2.
4.) Start a new game as a female Knight or equip the Knight Set on an existing female character.
*Note* This replaces the Knight Set for both male and female. However, it does not alter male/female voices or animations.
These are separate sets in the previous games. No way around this without getting creative...
Uninstall Instructions:
Delete the extracted files from your mod directory.
Alternatively, you could run a Steam integrity check. However, this will almost surely break/remove any of your existing mods.
Known Issues/limitations:
- The scabbard is for show. Currently, only the longsword has been modified to remove the vanilla scabbard. I might remove the remaining sword scabbards to reduce immersion breaking limitations. I might also release a model without the scabbard at all. All in good time.
- The model is stored exclusively in the leg equipment. The full set is required in order to make the vanilla body, hands, and head invisible. Meaning no armor changes.
- Unlike the other two games, the model will replace the Knight Set for both male and female. This is fine. Keep in mind, this does not change voices or animations.
- Some animations will cause the model to be distorted. Most don't.
- There is a lighting issue in some areas. Can be resolved with a material change on the model, but it makes the character look worse overall (imo). Might upload this as an alt.
FAQ:
1.) Do you plan to release any other mods?
Yes. Character/Model replacements are likely. This is part of a larger project that may or may not be released.
2.) Does this work with <insert mod name here>?
I can only recommend using this mod with the base game. I will eventually create a list of verified mods. As always, use at your own risk.
3.) Will you create a mod using <insert other game model here>? (AKA the I wanna play as Cloud Strife question)
No. To the best of my knowledge, I won't release any mod using unauthorized IP. If you're an aspiring 3D modeler, I might be interested in original assets.
4.) Did you create the 3D model?
The base model was not created by me. You can find information about the creator at the bottom of this page. Modifications were made by me to make it lore friendly, to remove immersion breaking physics issues, and to fix lighting issues with base textures.
About the project
When working on this mod, I set out to do two things:
1. Learn about modding Dark Souls 1, 2 , and 3.
2. Create a singular experience across all three games with a , mostly, lore friendly player character.
These are my first mods uploaded to Nexus. I hope you enjoy them.
Let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
