Welcome

Welcome to the Soulsborne Modding Wiki, our latest effort to try and consolidate modding resources and tutorials in a well-organized area.

If you are new to modding FromSoftware games, you should download or use the following tools:

• Smithbox: a multi-purpose GUI tool with support for most FromSoftware games. Primarily for editing maps, parameters and text.
• WitchyBND: a unpacking/packing tool used to unpack encrypted or compressed files inside BNDs, the generic archive format for game files.
• Soulstruct: a multi-purpose GUI tool with a focus on Dark Souls, Dark Souls: Remastered and Bloodborne. Edits maps, events, parameters, text, and ESD.
• DarkScript: a GUI tool for editing EMEVD files, Fromsoft's event script format.
• ESDLang: a command-line tool for editing ESD files, Fromsoft's character state machine format.
• ESDStudio: a GUI tool for editing ESD files.
• FLVER Editor: a GUI tool for editing FLVER files, Fromsoft's 3D model format.

If you would like to discuss modding or other related topics, you should join the following Discord servers:

These tools are either abandoned or out-of-date. It is not recommended that you use them.
