[DrGBase] Malenia, Blade of Miquella

Development on the NPC is halted entirely. This will not be remade, I’m sorry to all that want me to remake her. I don’t have the time anymore.

I’m aware of the issues with this NPC, and I’ll eventually remake her from scratch. Development is halted on this NPC until then, sorry. Thanks to everyone who’s been supportive of this NPC so far. Be warned, this NPC can crash your game sometimes, and I don’t know why. -Val

Make sure you have the requirements, as well as their requirements.

This addon is a work in progress, and serves as something to finally get my name out into the workshop with my own addon. In it’s current state, it’s a completely functional NPC, and should be able to provide a bit of fun. However; there is still a lot that I want to do.

Please report any errors to me along with the error in question. Suggestions & general feedback are also appreciated. Spam comments will be removed.

Some attacks may or may not work as intended, and may be unbalanced. Her AI is also kind of bad, and isn’t something that I’m too proud of, to be honest.

• 20k HP. Might be too much, let me know.
• Pseudo PBR Arm & Sword
• Tons of Bodygroups (Not implemented into the NPC yet)
• Full* Possession Support.
• Multiple Combo Chains.
• Dodging!
• Weapon Trails (Disabled for now, will be re-enabled eventually)
• Mediocre HUD For Possession to Show Health
• Parrying (A bit buggy, but it works.)

• Left click to melee
• Right click to do a grab attack
• Duck (left control) to dodge
• Jump to.. jump. If you’re moving backwards and jump, you’ll do a flip.

• A complete rework of the textures (aside from the arm & sword) to utilize a full pseudo-PBR setup.
• Fix the various alpha issues
• Maybe redo the sounds and make them game-accurate. Initially, I had no way of utilizing Elden Rings sounds to be frame-perfect, so I just took creative liberty and made my own iteration.
• Phase 2, without the petals
• A lot. Too much to write down right now.

• Edward Nigma – Ported all of the non-pseudo PBR textures for his own SFM port , allowed me to use them for this.
• Roach – A /lot/ of help. Roach is the one who got me into Lua and is the main reason I’m even able to do this. Malenia is built on his DMC5 Vergil, albeit modified to suit my needs. He’s been a massive help whenever I need it.
• Mayhem – Informed me that sword trails are a thing that exists and is also the reason I’m going to add full pseudo-PBR to the model. Eventually.
• Dragoteryx – Made DrGBase.
• FROMSOFT – Models, textures, sounds, animations, etc. 🙂
• Leon – Moral support.
• You – For taking the time out of your day to even view this addon, or even test it out.

This took a lot of time, and it’s nowhere near finished. I’ve probably put around a hundred hours into it so far, it’s been a project that I’ve been working on occasionally for the past few months. Leave a thumbs up if you enjoy the addon so far and would like to see more, it’s greatly appreciated. Thank you <3
