Here's me coming back, at the end of May, 2025, still hoping and praying that this is one day ported to TW:W3. I play Malekith with other reskins but it just doesn't hit the same.

So I'm still alive. Same old same old. Not much changing but the weather. (Nasty storms rolling in tomorrow, tornado business, here's hoping it misses me. If it does, I'll be back sometime around October or November to ask for this again.)

Hope you guys are doing well, hope everyone's happy and healthy, and hope my dude Darkstrand might be inspired to port this over to TW:W3 one of these days, so I can really get into a proper Malekith run.

Coming back, five months later, to pray this is ported to Total War: Warhammer 3! Been... Two full years now, but I'm gonna keep on hoping. If I knew anything about modding, I'd do it myself, but I don't, so all I can do is be useless and lame and hope that it's moved over one day, so I can play a Malekith campaign in style.

I'll see you guys again around March!

I still check back every couple of months to see if this has been added to TW:W3, lol.
GenuinelyEric 28 Oct, 2023 @ 4:00pm 
So I guess porting this one over to TW:W3 isn't going to happen?
GenuinelyEric 26 Apr, 2023 @ 6:56pm 
Still really hoping we see this mod in TW:W3. Malekith just hits different with this mod going.

Outdated

God, please port this to TW:W3. The thought of playing a Malekith campaign without this incredible mod makes me want to start up another Kroq-Gar campaign.
Kriega1 17 Jul, 2022 @ 3:31am 
Please Please Please port to WH3

Strange. The problem (and a couple others) was solved by verifying integrity of game files.
Chuckawookie 6 Nov, 2021 @ 10:41pm 
My head issue isn't missing textures but skin. When Malekith takes damage in battle and the game applies the blood textures, the armor around his neck turns into skin. So what you have is the metal head sitting on top of a decapitated neck, and then an armored body. Is this intended or should I start looking through my load order?
Asura 12 Sep, 2021 @ 10:51pm 
same problem as report by alduintwe ,after set graphics to ultra,its working again.
sirmicou85 8 Aug, 2021 @ 6:50am 
Hi ! Thank you for your work, but could we get an update please ? :)
The Goose 30 Jul, 2021 @ 9:23pm 
Fantastic my guy. Looks like it's time for another Malekith campaign
AlduinTWE 30 Jul, 2021 @ 6:01pm 
Okay so, I figured it out! The modded helmet will only appear right if your in-game "Graphics Quality" is set to either High or Ultra. Medium or Low settings will improperly display the helmet with the patterned squares representing missing textures.

Hopefully we'll get an update soon where us lower end hardware guys can fully appreciate this great mod. But until then, I suppose I can deal with slightly longer load times until I upgrade my setup. It's worth it! :)
AlduinTWE 28 Jul, 2021 @ 11:18pm 
There does however seem to be an issue with his helmet. I see several others have reported the same problem, where the correct texture is missing & replaced by a pattern of green and red squares. I don't have any mods that alter Malekith's textures besides this one.

This is my mod list

1.) Guv's Noble Blue and White colored Avelorn
2.) [LIG] Alleged Bride Of Aenarion(Morathi Reskin)
3.) Immersive Vampire Reskin
4.) Global Recruitment for Dark Elves and Vampire Counts
5.) Recruit Defeated Legendary Lords
6.) Force Confederation
7.) Immersive and Loreful Elf Names
8.) Main campaign capital fix
9.) Diplomatic Options - Vassal All Factions
10.) Mod Configuration Tool | | The Vandy Library
11.) CJ's Campaign Configuration Mod - Requires Mod Configuration Tool
12.) ER: Kislev Reborn
13.) ER: Kislev Reborn - True Katarina Submod
14.) Gaean Vale 10 Building Slots
15.)Blood Kisses For Arioch.Pack
16.) Ranged Undead
17.) High Elf Units for High Elfs

THANK YOU! Been wanting a mod like this since the game's release! Malekith looks so much more appropriate with the purple robes and darker armor. Fits perfect for the leader of the dark elves. Please port this when Warhammer 3 is released and the big campaign comes out! :steamhappy:
Gleen Cross 25 Jul, 2021 @ 3:02pm 
So edgy and cheesy, lol I love the corny aspect of the dark elves
史前生命体 24 Jul, 2021 @ 6:33am 
nice
Son of Rawl 18 Jul, 2021 @ 4:15am 
Thanks for the mod, I had the same "Rainbow Head" issue and found a fix through the Graphics settings. I put everything to max and the texture loads for his head.
astraleth.lm 7 Jul, 2021 @ 11:58am 
Hey, sorry I didn't seen your answers.
I tried without no others mods and it still didn't work, Rainbow Head...
I guess it s over for me, but thanks, I'm sure it s look wonderful
Noah in da House 4 Jul, 2021 @ 3:34pm 
Hey, this looks great. What ReShade are you using?
MinatoWantae 22 Jun, 2021 @ 3:35pm 
since you're working on sorc reskin, do you have any plan for future nsfw skin?
Redemption 1 Jun, 2021 @ 7:07pm 
Noticed that when you try to run this mod with Immersive Battle Banners mod it makes Malekith's head rainbow. Dunno why but would love to run both mods together.
Ash 22 May, 2021 @ 2:05pm 
That's what I did. I experienced the problem either with this mod alone or coupled with my usual mix.

I assume the problem is the games mod software not really properly removing stuff but I'm no expert.
Darkstrand  [author] 22 May, 2021 @ 8:36am 
@Ash @astraleth.lm I just loaded into the game with only my mod enabled and I am not seeing the error that you guys are experiencing. Try JUST my mod enabled by itself if possible and see if you still have this error and let me know? It seems as if something else is conflicting with it to me since I am not able to replicate your issue. Please let me know.
Darkstrand  [author] 22 May, 2021 @ 6:28am 
@Ash @astraleth.lm I will look into that today but you guys are the first to report an issue. If there is an issue I will do my best to fix
Ash 21 May, 2021 @ 3:57pm 
I actually got the same issue as Astraleth, I just figured it was me and didn't say anything! I downloaded your other LL DE reskins and they seemed to work fine.

I disabled all mods except this and the issue still exists but we all know that doesn't say much with how poorly this game handles mod.
Darkstrand  [author] 21 May, 2021 @ 3:21pm 
@Ash It's still something I'm working on but yes I plan to release the sorc reskins in time as well. My pleasure, I'm glad that you enjoy them! :) I will be releasing my Malus reskin next, I'm nearing the final stages for him. After that I plan on finalizing and releasing a compilation of what I've done so far, which will include Doomfire Warlocks, Dark Steeds, Black Guard, Dark Elf Warriors, Sisters of Slaughter, Dark Riders, Sorceresses, Supreme Sorceresses, etc. Those will likely be in my phase 1 release within the next few weeks or so. Stay tuned!
Darkstrand  [author] 21 May, 2021 @ 3:21pm 
@astraleth.lm That does not sound related to my mod. That would be a texture path error. Are there any other mods that you are using alongside with mine that would be affecting the texture path for Malekith? I have not been able to replicate your error, nor has anyone else reported anything similar. I know what you are saying though, that happens when there is no appropriate texture file or incorrect mapping. My mod should not be causing that.

astraleth.lm 21 May, 2021 @ 1:27pm 
The helmet isn't showing properly, there are red and green carrés. I got the shape, but not the texture, not the color... I don't know if you understand?
Ash 20 May, 2021 @ 4:51pm 
Is the sorc reskin stemming from your Naggarond reskin? It looks great but different from the one pictured in the faction reskin.

If it's not, you've got my vote to release it!

Either way, no pressure and thanks for the awesome mods!
CaledorNation 19 May, 2021 @ 10:34pm 
Excellent!
Darkstrand  [author] 19 May, 2021 @ 5:37pm 
@𝓚ℒ𝔅. Thank you, your screenshots are legendary so I appreciate your support. I've seen your screenshots come up quite a few times on my community feed.
Darkstrand  [author] 19 May, 2021 @ 5:37pm 
@astraleth.lm I'm not sure what you mean..it's just a reskin. What do you mean the helmet doesn't work?
Darkstrand  [author] 19 May, 2021 @ 5:36pm 
@Necropants Thank you
Necropants 19 May, 2021 @ 5:01pm 
Sick Reskin, best i have seen
astraleth.lm 19 May, 2021 @ 5:36am 
Hey, the helmet don't work at all, am I the only one? Do you have any idea about what I could do about it?
Sorry for my poor english héhé
Greatings from France !
Boysen Berries 19 May, 2021 @ 4:14am 
and a different mask option would be rad, or show his face
Boysen Berries 19 May, 2021 @ 4:13am 
Hey can include a before and after pic?
𝒦.ℒ.ℬ. 18 May, 2021 @ 10:50am

Darkstrand  [author] 17 May, 2021 @ 2:41pm 
@plotini2 Hey there, good question. I have several reshade presets that I've made and adapted over the years but honestly, the ones that I use most often are available from https://sfx.thelazy.net/games/game/1817/ <---- that page. I really like the "Marfo" preset and the "Vanegar" is a bit dark but fits some situations well. I also use Matthew's reshade preset #1 & #2 that he has released on the steam workshop
plotini2 17 May, 2021 @ 1:04am 
Hi there, just a question. What shader did you use for those pics? Looks awesome!
Darkstrand  [author] 16 May, 2021 @ 7:56pm 
@juanliam Merci
Darkstrand  [author] 16 May, 2021 @ 7:54pm 
@Wazzu Thank you! Best of luck with the upgrade process - it is definitely worth it to go through for the end result :)
Darkstrand  [author] 16 May, 2021 @ 7:53pm 
@Grzegorz Brzęczyszczykiewicz Thank you so much, that is exactly what I was aiming for - I appreciate the feedback and the support. Enjoy!
Darkstrand  [author] 16 May, 2021 @ 7:51pm 
@Born2BKing Exactly what I was going for. Glad you like it.
juanliam 16 May, 2021 @ 3:30pm 
Tres joli mod.
LEPS 16 May, 2021 @ 12:17pm 
This one looks amazing! Can't wait till I upgrade my PC properly so I can see the new model in all it's ultra-graphics glory!
Grzegorz Brzęczyszczykiewicz 16 May, 2021 @ 11:05am 
Amazing reskin! Loreful to the story of malekith and actually makes the model to tell the story about the character just by making you look at the details on his armour.
Darkstrand  [author] 16 May, 2021 @ 8:18am 
@All thank you for your comments and support! Glad you like it and I hope you enjoy for your campaign playthroughs. @Anubis great to be back, I've got a lot more planned to release shortly - picking up where I left off and working on updates as well.
