Gauntlet Skip Mod by Boblord
Softs only if it matters for anyone. NOTE: YOUR PC MUST BE SET TO ENGLISH(US) IN ORDER FOR THIS MOD TO WORK PROPERLY
Special thanks to the following people for their mods/work being used in the creation of this:
Huge thanks to Radai for the Grand Cathedral's 4.0 ds2 cheat table I used as the base table for the gauntlet skip script
Katalash for creating modengine, which is used for the second part of the mod and included in the download
Thefifthmatt for creating esdtool, which I used to edit the events that spawn the ice
Note that neither the cheat table nor the modengine part should be used online.
I have not tested either of them online and cannot confirm that you will not get banned for using either. Do not take the risk.
Important information:
This mod works in two parts:
A cheat table used to bring up the big gate that spawns ivory and removes the loyce knights, and a modengine part that makes the ice object on the normal gates appear automatically.
The dll for modengine is included in the download for ease of use for those who haven't worked too much with mods before. Just drag and drop everything as listed in the installation instructions.
The table can be used without the modengine files, but you won't have the ice covering the gates. It's up to personal preference, but for a more authentic skip use both. The download includes both together.
The modengine part spawning the ice over the gates is purely an obstacle/visual thing, and the gates still count as "sealed" and do not spawn the charred knights.
This mod does work with the ivory king gauntlet skip mod. Both .esd files for that mod and this mod can go in the same location.
Installation instructions:
Make sure your PC is set to English(US) before you begin. Mod doesn't work right otherwise(ice won't spawn). It's easy to swap between languages in Windows Settings.
1.) copy the files in the "paste the contents of this folder into your folder with the ds2 exe" folder, and do exactly that.
File path is usually something like this: \SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Dark Souls II Scholar of the First Sin\Game
This enables modengine, and loads the modified event file for the ice. Again, do not use modengine online.
2.) Open the cheat table in Cheat Engine, hook it into DS2, and load your character.
Download CE itself from the Cheat Engine website if you don't have it(https://www.cheatengine.org/). It's a bit of a sketchy looking site, but its fine. Just make sure to read the installation instructions closely so you dont install adware by accident on your pc.
3.) Under "Bob's Extra Crap", tick the box for "Ivory King Gauntlet Skip(no knights and instant start)"
Make sure that you have exhasusted Alsanna's dialogue and unlocked the path to ivory first, or else enabling this will cause her dialogue to be stuck in a loop until you disable the script.
Cheat engine needs to be running with this enabled every time you want to skip the gauntlet. I cannot guarentee that this doesn't ban either, play it safe.
4.) That's all the setup! Just drop into the fight, wait for the big gate to pop up, the ice to cover the three small gates, and once you approach the big gate ivory will spawn. Reload the area if there are still loyce knights, before you drop down, they'll go away on reload.
Have fun!
P.S.- there are some other useful scripts under "Bob's Extra Crap' in the cheat table. Feel free to use them for quality of life, but again, they all carry no guarantees that they don't ban.
Specifically the bonfirewarp one, which you should not use online under any circumstances, and is very dangerous to use online. Don't take the risk.
