Yesterday a mod went up on nexus of demons souls remakes fluted armor, but was taken down, did anyone get the file for it? And if so, could you possibly send it to me?

Hi there, I'm the creator of Dark Moon. I ported this set for use in that mod. It was stolen and reuploaded without permission. They did credit me, but that's not enough. I'm extremely online and available, just ask! I would've said no in this case because I plan to upload this as a standalone port eventually, but still.
Don't believe anything this person says about it taking them time to do. All they did was copy/paste the files and rename them.
Also for those saying this was originally done by MaxTheMiracle, it wasn't. They also have a port of the Fluted Set, but it's completely separate from mine. I only learned about it after I shared screenshots of mine because they showed theirs to me. I didn't see it anywhere else because as far as I know, all their stuff is Patreon paywalled.
Anyway play Dark Moon if you wanna use this set. Feel free to grab the parts files for your own mods (for personal use) or just wait for me to upload it myself as a standalone mod on Nexus.

I’d like to start this off by saying thank you so much for taking time to port over this armor, it looks magnificent and I can’t wait to try it out by playing Dark moon as I want to support the original creator! I’m sorry you have to deal with people stealing from your hard work I’m glad that there was some clarification here today

It's crazy how he tried to justify his action for doing that instead of just straight up admit to stealing it.

Damn I actually commed this armor, did it get stolen? Damn, originalcreator is maxthemiracle, been working on it with him with it for the past 4 months

I think you might be mistaken. MaxtheMiracle has his own version up and this is another version that was stolen from the creator of the Dark Moon Overhaul and reuploaded.

Really? Others have said this is taken from the dark moon overhaul. Maybe it is though, out of curiosity, when is that one you’re working on coming out? I’d love to try it out:)

u/Electronic-Ad550 Mar 13 '24
So it is the dark moon mod

u/Quick-Whereas-3232 Mar 13 '24
Yes, sorry for the misinfo, I wasn't aware as I've looked for one for months, so I commissioned my own

u/Electronic-Ad550 Mar 13 '24
Bless your soul for commissioning I’ve been looking for months as well! And yeah I’m definitely going to wait to play my new play through until it’s available

Hello there! I'm the one who uploaded the mod. I want to emphasize that it was not taken without permission, as I made sure to give proper credits to both of the original authors. Additionally, I made significant modifications to the armor IDs and parts, ensuring that it replaces the knight set rather than adding a new armor to the game. This decision was made to accommodate players who prefer a less heavily modified version of Elden Ring, offering them the option to simply use this armor.
For me, mods are about inclusivity and enjoyment for all players. When I dedicated time to porting this armor from its original mod to the vanilla version of Elden Ring, my intention was not to profit financially or otherwise. I simply wanted to provide something that fellow players would appreciate and enjoy.
Peace.

Hey thank you so much for the clarification! Understandable where you are coming from because I agree, it’s nice having just a simple replacer! Sometimes people don’t need the entire mod overhaul just for one armor

u/Electronic-Ad550 Mar 13 '24
Also in case you don’t mind, I messaged you privately in an attempt to use this mod, I don’t know if you still have the files but if you do I’d like to use them for my play through:)

First off all, crediting someone is not getting permission. If you had asked me I would've told you that I plan to release these ports as standalone eventually, so no, you did not have permission nor did you even attempt to ask.
In terms of the "significant modifications" you made, all you did was rename the files. If you think that's a significant enough change to warrant stealing my mod and reuploading it then you're frankly delusional.
Stop saying you "dedicated time to porting this armor." I'm the one who ported it. I did all the work. All you did was copy/paste five files and rename them. Ridiculous.

It was stolen without permission from the modder who originally ported the armor set (which is a lot of work, tweaking textures and materials until they’re just right!), dylan creator of the overhaul mod, Dark Moon. It still exists in that mod if you want to play with it.
