copper nacelle
#

and use that op spell charm

vagrant leaf
#

or that

buoyant obsidian
#

although pure nail certainly makes the fight easy enough

vagrant leaf
#

and probably the vertical attack charm

copper nacelle
#

are you showing the you might just stand a chance post hornet 2

#

or something

buoyant obsidian
#

It's just based on completion percentage

copper nacelle
#

ohh

#

nice

vagrant leaf
#

does the glass soul charm affect spells?

buoyant obsidian
#

Nope

vagrant leaf
#

okay

buoyant wasp
#

bleh, debug mod does a ton to write to the console. :/

copper nacelle
#

can you replace assets with the API?

#

like replace with an if condition

#

like glass soul does

buoyant wasp
#

probably

#

dunno how offhand though

#

i haven't done much with assets

copper nacelle
#

cool

#

thanks

leaden hedge
#

Can't mess with assets like that at runtime, you just need to find the sprite/audio in question and set its bytes manually

knotty grove
#

now if someone could write c++ code to fuck with memory manually, it could work xD

copper nacelle
#

@leaden hedge darn

#

thanks tho

hazy sentinel
#

just remove the normal mode option in start menu

#

ez

ornate rivet
#

why c++ when you have assembly

copper nacelle
#

@hazy sentinel I could make normal mode just turn into steel soul mode on game start

buoyant obsidian
#

fuck assembly

copper nacelle
#

I've seen Assembly

#

we're going to do it in comp sci apparently

buoyant obsidian
#

I've done Assembly by hand on fucking paper

ornate rivet

buoyant obsidian
#

For a test I had to write a program from memory in only Assembly that assigned and corrected errors using parity or some shit like that

copper nacelle
#

what the fuck

#

what the fuck

#

what the fuck

hazy sentinel
#

fuck the what

copper nacelle
#

my comp sci class is easier than writing mods

hazy sentinel
#

but you haven't made any mods yet

buoyant obsidian
#

My comp sci classes are hit and miss

hazy sentinel
#

more like comp and sci

#

haha get it

buoyant obsidian
#

half of them end up getting scrabbed due to professor negligence

hollow pier
#

haha

buoyant obsidian
#

honestly I don't feel like I'm learning anything of value

copper nacelle
#

I'm not learning anything of value

#

we're literally doing GUIs with Tkinter

#

like why

#

I took accelerated because I hadn't done any coding this year but I didn't want to be bored

#

and all we've done is:

#

Classes, Constructors, For loops, while loops, ifs, and inheritance

buoyant obsidian
#

Try memorizing several dozen Assembly functions for a single test

#

and being able to convert from assembly to 32 bit binary

#

and back

copper nacelle
#

we're supposed to do assembly

#

so

#

at the point I'll die

buoyant obsidian
#

it's not THAT bad, my professor was just awful

#

he was fired before the semester ended

copper nacelle
#

wow

hollow pier
#

thats the sign of a good professor wdym

strange narwhal
#

I remember doing the assembly to binary conversations, fun fun

#

The parity stuff sucked though

buoyant wasp
#

if you look at some of the modding api's early comments for the current version, there is some ILASM stuff.

#

ended up ditching that because...no

ripe plover
#

how do you activate the debug menu

solemn rivet
#

f1

ripe plover
#

went to the radiance, tried their dream nail dialogue and broke the game kthx

fair rampart
#

hey did someone unpack the Grimm Troupe sprites yet?

#

Personally looking for the palettes and such but I draw decently from reference.

fair rampart
#

banned

fair rampart
#

ty

fair rampart
#

has there been a successful attempt at a multiplayer mode?

copper nacelle
#

@fair rampart 753 did a dream shield co op thing

fair rampart
#

dream shield coop?

ornate rivet
#

yes

fair rampart
#

I'll have to look this up

bold lodge
#

hi! is the debug mod working in GoG?

fair rampart
#

What's GoG?

bold lodge
#

like steam, but with DRM games

#

it stands for good old games

young walrus
#

no

#

the API only works with steam

#

and Mac now

#

but not GoG

bold lodge
#

ok thanks

winter snow
#

The cut content mod gives me an error when I try to install it. It's for 1.0.3.7.

#

And I have 1.0.3.7.

#

If anyone has any ideas I'd really appreciate it.

young walrus
#

how did you install it?

#

what version of the game do you have

#

what OS?

#

version meaning, steam vs GoG

winter snow
#

I have the GOG one because idk how to get the steam one, but I made sure to install it in the same location as the Steam version. I use Win 10 (up to date).

young walrus
#

that's the problem

#

the mod is Steam version only

winter snow
#

ahhh, can steam version still be obtained? 😮

young walrus
#

the patch?

#

you have both versions?

winter snow
#

I mean, I have HK Cut Content Mod for HK 1.0.3.7.

young walrus
#

there's a guide here on how to down patch your steam game

winter snow
#

I see.

#

THanks. I will try.

young walrus
#

i meant, do you have a steam and GoG copy of the game

#

but yeah. if you have a steam copy, down patch using this guide, then you should be able to install it

winter snow
#

now i have the 1.0.3.7. gog

#

i will install the steam one back

#

and downgrade

#

😃

#

thanks

buoyant wasp
#

i think the most recent version of the game the steam/gog are nearly identical, I've noticed that they've been slowly merging the differences together, likely to reduce the effort in builds. but I haven't tried to use the steam API version on the gog version yet, mostly cause i don't have it 😉

young walrus
#

still pretty sure it doesn't work

#

even on newer stuff

winter snow
#

" then go to the directory printed into the Steam console" where to find this? i don't see it

young walrus
#

i think uh.... gradow tried recently

#

right click on the HK game

#

properties

#

then local game files

winter snow
#

i know how to find the HK installation folder, idk how to find the downloaded content

fair rampart
#

When it finishes downloading it tells u i think

young walrus
#

oh, you're asking about down patching?

winter snow
#

yea

young walrus
#

i've never down patched this way, but looks like it'll print where it saved it once it's done

#

it'll take awhile

#

cuz it's 9 GB of content

winter snow
#

i see

young walrus
#

it'll probably say like "contents saved to [file path]"

winter snow
#

i usually download HK in under 1 min though 😅 i can go up to 60MB per second

fair rampart
#

It's actually about 1.5 gb or something like that

#

Compression is magical

buoyant obsidian
#

your Steam has a console?

copper nacelle
#

steam has a console

#

Windows + R

winter snow
#

i found it; the downloaded content i mean

copper nacelle
#

steam://open/console

#

^ just click that for a console

buoyant obsidian
#

wowzers

buoyant wasp
#

yeah, i downloaded something from steam last night at 78MB/s. it was fun

quartz trout
#

Hey, does anyone know how to use the Boss Rush mod? The readme doesn't say much and I can't figure out how to start the boss rush

young walrus
#

install the modding API and the boss rush mod

#

watch the youtube video in pinned messages

#

goes step by step on how to install API mods

quartz trout
#

Oh, I have it installed, I'm using the debug menu just fine, but the boss rush part doesn't seem to have a UI or anything

young walrus
#

you start a new file

copper nacelle
#

and it'll start automatically

quartz trout
#

Checking out the video though in pinned, thanks

fair rampart
#

Then you get automatically teled to bosses

young walrus
#

^

#

yeah. just start an empty file

quartz trout
#

Oh so, if I have it installed any new game just does that?

young walrus
#

and it'll run boss rush

#

yes

quartz trout
#

Gotcha so, I'd have to have that in a separate install from normal debug training stuff

young walrus
#

just create a sub folder

copper nacelle
#

and put debug stuff in the sub folder

young walrus
#

and move the boss rush mod dll into the sub folder when you don't want to use it

buoyant wasp
#

like

#
Managed/
    Mods/
        Disabled/
            Bossrush.dll
#

the API loads everything in "Mods/", but doesn't go down into nested folders

#

so you can move the mods in and out of the Disabled folder to control which ones are loaded

quartz trout
#

Yeah, I fell you. Boss Rush mod still seems to not be working for me, I tried putting Debug in a "disabled" subfolder in case they weren't playing nice together... Do I have to progress to a certain point after I start a new game?

#

Otherwise I must have missed a step

copper nacelle
#

no

#

is Boss Rush in the top left of the main menu

quartz trout
#

Naw, just shows the modding API version.

young walrus
#

yeah. top left should show all loaded mods

copper nacelle
#

you didn't install it correctly

#

it's in the Mods folder, right?

#

(the .dll)

quartz trout
#

Yep, same folder as the Debug file, and that one does work.

copper nacelle
#

send a picture

quartz trout
#

Heh of what? Folder? Menu?

copper nacelle
#

folder

#

and menu

young walrus
#

did you download the correct version number of boss rush?

quartz trout
#

Yeah, 1.2.2.1

copper nacelle
#

@quartz trout your folder should look like

hollow_knight_data
        Managed
        Mods
                   Disabled
                           DebugMod.dll
               BossRush.dll
        other shit
#

does it look like that

young walrus
#

where's the "mods" folder, 56?

quartz trout
#

Well no, the path is Managed/Mods

young walrus
#

😛

quartz trout
#

Yeah lol

#

Trying to verify files in steam just in case I goofed something in the install

#

2 files failed to verify, fingers crossed that's the problem, heh

copper nacelle
#

no

#

cease and desist

#

that'll uninstall the ModApi

young walrus
#

that's fine. can just reinstall

#

doesn't take long

quartz trout
#

SURE DID LOL, yeah no big to reinstall. But hrm, still stumped.

buoyant wasp
#

look in your saves folder

quartz trout
#

Yeah, same deal after doing the API and mods, Debug will work, BossRush doesn't show up in the corner

buoyant wasp
#

there should be a ModLog.txt

#

good chance if there is an error it will show up there

#

if there isn't one there, post Managed\..\output.txt

quartz trout
#

Uhh... where are the saves exactly? They don't seem to be in the hollow_knight_data folder anywhere...

copper nacelle
#

%appdata%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight

quartz trout
#

Okay okay, found it. Yeah, error.

sick arch
#

has the problem with debug mod where the full menu doesnt show and you cant hide the menu anymore after you quit and enter the game been fixed yet

#

because it happens every time

quartz trout
#

Not sure... I'm just using it to grind Watcher Knights, heh

#

Ah! Got it working. I downloaded the 1.2.1.4 version of boss rush which seems to work on the HK 1.2.2.1 patch. The newer BossRush version seems broken for me still

buoyant wasp
#

What version of the API do you have installed?

quartz trout
#

1.2.2.1

buoyant wasp
#

1.2.2.1-#?

quartz trout
#

-19

buoyant wasp
#

oh, you're way behind

#

which is why it isn't working

quartz trout
#

WOOPS

buoyant wasp
#

it's like -27 now

quartz trout
#

Okay, that makes sense. I'll update the API

buoyant wasp
#

after -26, the API will now tell you if there is a new version available

#

so you won't miss updates 😃

quartz trout
#

That is convenient :> Yeah I downloaded it like 2 months ago but am just now getting it working

#

Didn't realize how much active development was going on

buoyant wasp
#

October-December there was a ton

quartz trout
#

Yepperino, newest bossrush version works now with the updated API. Thanks everyone for the help <3

round vapor
#

hey guys, this is super urgent! i need the sound file of the regular Vengefly ["WRIEK!"] but can't find it in the extracted game files (despite checking everything 3 times!). can somebody here please help me out.
i can offer you the cry of the Vengefly King in return.

trim totem
#

Did you look in all the resource files

round vapor
#

i really did look into all the files that looked like they could be reasonably it. i even found the file of the Vengefly King pretty fast, if that's any proof.
at this point, I'm not even sure whether the regular Vengefly's is in there at all...

round vapor
#

it definitely should be inside the "AudioClip" folder, though.

#

SHOULD

hushed patio
#

hi where would i find information on the randomizer for HK?

copper nacelle
#

wdym

#

the mod itself is in the pinned google drive

fair rampart
#

'tis in here

copper nacelle
#

there's a good bit of info in the README in the zip

fair rampart
#

it probs has a read me file

hushed patio
#

Ty

copper nacelle
#

if you need additional info, people here know a lot about the mod as well

copper nacelle
#

@leaden hedge where do I set the HP for the health_manager_enemy? Decrement Health? help my health_manager_enemy thing is only affecting half the enemies (eg the aspids aren't affected but grey prince zote is)

copper nacelle
#

nevermind

#

figured it out

#

nevermind

#

didn't figure it out

#

I'm getting NamedVariable in the LocateFSM FsmVariables GetNamedVariables type int

#

but it says the var.UseVariable must be a bool

#

but I

#

am getting ints

#

:/

#

nvm got it

copper nacelle
#

kinda got it

#

95% of the enemies have one health now (as currently intended)

#

but some enemies aren't affected

hollow terrace
#

If I hide the debug mod menu how do I get it to show back up?

copper nacelle
#

F1

hollow terrace
#

Thank

hollow terrace
#

Can I give myself soul with the debug mod? Not infinite but like one time?

sick arch
#

if you toggle infinite soul it gives you 3 fireballs

#

so you can just use that

#

no way to give yourself 1 fireball at a time atm

vagrant leaf
#

well i'm almost through a lightbringer playthrough

#

some of the charms feel really overpowered

#

buyt other than that it's really good

buoyant obsidian
#

No more powerful than Flukenest

copper nacelle
#

wow what a great way of thinking for balance

#

flukenest, the epitome of balance

#

but yeah lightbringer is great

vagrant leaf
#

the only thing i would do to fix it is to nerf a couple charms and increase soul regen rate

#

the soul regen speed becomes a nightmare in the colosseum

hazy sentinel
#

not really

vagrant leaf
#

i mean i could barely ever heal during conqueror

#

but the bloodlust charm made it a lot more bareable

copper nacelle
#

@vagrant leaf D R E A M N A I L

vagrant leaf
#

wait

#

oh no

#

i honestly completely forgot that was an option

#

wow

#

i am very stupid

#

well other than that all i would do is nerf charms

#

great mod

hazy sentinel
#

not as good as bonfire mod intenseface

vagrant leaf
#

what even is bonfire mod

gritty gazelle
#

someone recommends any boss?

#

mod*

#

any mod*

copper nacelle
#

HellMod intenseface

gritty gazelle
#

and what Hell Mod does

#

Oh i was going to ask about that one

copper nacelle
#
# Hell Mod
#### By 56

## Effects
- 1/2 Nail Damage
- 2x incoming damage
- 1/3 max SOUL
- 1/2 SOUL collection
- no SOUL collection while your shade is alive
- Heal focus is nerfed to Deep Focus speed
- Deep focus multiplier increased by 1.3725
- Dream shield only costs 1 notch (bugged, shows up as 1 but still uses 3)

## Installation
Hell Mod is an API mod, so install the Hollow Knight API (by Seanpr, Firezen, and Wyza) and then place the HellMod.dll into the Mods folder
#

currently trying to nerf spells

#

as well

gritty gazelle
#

oh okey

rose barn
#

oh god please no

gritty gazelle
#

i as going to ask about hell mod because i was installing the bossrush mod that is in the same google doc than hell mod

rose barn
#

you do not understand what i went through trying to speedrun that last night

gritty gazelle
#

jajaja

copper nacelle
#

@rose barn lol

gritty gazelle
#

i just finished hollow knight at 106% and the hunter`s journal is complete, so i want a challenge

copper nacelle
#

how far did you get for steel soul

rose barn
#

#

copper nacelle
#

#

I'm really close to nerfing spells

rose barn
#

i can wait

copper nacelle
#

ok

rose barn
#

hurry up

copper nacelle
#

I'll give you the half finished version

rose barn
#

btw i didn't know double damage was a thing until shade skip into blue lake...

copper nacelle
#

lmao

#

nice

gritty gazelle
#

bossrush, what do you reccomend: grimm child, shape of unn or fragile strenght

vagrant leaf
#

strengh probably

gritty gazelle
#

okey thanks

copper nacelle
#

@rose barn you're doing old nail, right?

rose barn
#

yeah

#

just dont skip monarch or shade claock

#

if you happen to get them

gritty gazelle
#

sharpened nail or spore shroom? (the another one is wayward compass)

#

(feeling the cry cry)

#

cri cri?*

rose barn
#

nail

#

obviously

quartz trout
#

Ahah, I think Joni's Blessing breaks the Boss Rush mod... I can't focus to absorb the hollow knight :<

copper nacelle
#

I'll test it in a min

#

but it should have

#

4/5 spell damage

#

might make it 3/4 later ¯_(ツ)_/¯

rose barn
#

do i need to start a new playthrough

copper nacelle
#

no

#

@rose barn did you have the shade bug?

#

where when you died it would keep your shade with you

rose barn
#

no

copper nacelle
#

shit

#

I may have broken death

#

just a little bit

#

should be fine for steel soul tho

#

lol

gritty gazelle
#

i am not the only want that thinks that the masntir lords are harder than the radiance, right?

#

the only one that*^

copper nacelle
#

what

#

mantis lords are easy

#

imo

gritty gazelle
#

no

#

:,v

copper nacelle
#

it's jump

#

or walk right

#

or walk right and jump

gritty gazelle
#

someone wants to see how i defeated the Hollow Knight when he was invicible?

copper nacelle
#

debug mod

gritty gazelle
#

was a normal bug

#

ram fail, so he was invicible

#

hiveblood or soul catcher?=

copper nacelle
#

for what?

#

also hiveblood is garbage why would you use that

gritty gazelle
#

for boss rush

copper nacelle
#

soul catcher

gritty gazelle
#

ok thanks

copper nacelle
#

more soul = more spells/heals

#

@rose barn don't use that file it doesn't work

gritty gazelle
#

sprint master or hp?

#

hp right XD?

copper nacelle
#

ye

gritty gazelle
#

i will fight grimm now (normal grimm=

#

omg

#

dreamshield is broken vs grimm

#

XD

copper nacelle
#

@rose barn @fair rampart nearly working spell nerf (doesn't affect a few weird mobs, but that shouldn't matter much)

#

the old one that I tried was rounding (6/5) before multiplying so I had to change it to a double then Math.Round then cast to an int

#

@hazy sentinel 👋 bye spells

#

flukenest is ~~probably ~~still OP sadgrub

gritty gazelle
#

lulz

#

just battled grimm down of the gournd

#

ground*

#

bugged the game

#

bossrush bugged

#

XD

copper nacelle
#

off the ground?

#

what?

#

pfloat?

gritty gazelle
#

i was under the ground

copper nacelle
#

what

#

lmao

gritty gazelle
#

i recorded it

#

i am uploading it on youtube XD

copper nacelle
#

nice

gritty gazelle
#

wanna see when it`s uploaded?

copper nacelle
#

yes

gritty gazelle
#

(sorry my bad english, i am from Argentina)

#

only one question... how can i uninstall one mod to install another one?

copper nacelle
#

inside the Mods folder

#

either

#

create a new folder and put the old mods in there (this lets you put them back later)

#

OR

#

just delete the .dll

#

NOTE: Some of the API mods work together

#

@fair rampart should I do an Old Nail Randomizer Hell Mod run?

gritty gazelle
#

hey

#

what mods do you reccomend to play together?

copper nacelle
#

idk

#

Glass Soul (Api port) + anything works

#

Hell Mod + anything works

gritty gazelle
#

glass soul no please god no xD

#

wait a second, did you created hell mod?

copper nacelle
#

the main ones I can think of:
Glass Soul (api) + boss rush
glass soul (api) + randomizer
hell mod + randomizer
hell mod + boss rush

#

yeah, I created hell mod

gritty gazelle
#

what is randomizer?

copper nacelle
#

randomizer swaps all charms/spells/movement ability locations with each other

gritty gazelle
#

that sounds... funny

copper nacelle
#

so Dash can become double jump or quick slash

#

it can be

#

e.g:

gritty gazelle
#

what is scale mod?

copper nacelle
#

shrinks/grows you

#

and scales damage with that

#

(smaller = less damage, bigger = more damage)

#

note that you can't use Glass Soul (not the api port), Lightbringer, Scale Mod, and shitmodst with any other mod

#

because they aren't API

#

also, try shitmodst

gritty gazelle
#

what is it?

copper nacelle
#

I can't explain it, but the footage can

#

first 5 minutes show what happens

gritty gazelle
copper nacelle
#

but basically:

  • character model doesn't change movement direction except on scene load (you can still move in both directions tho)
  • absurd nail range
  • absurd nail damage
  • nail takes 1 health and has no range until you get to 1 health
#

@gritty gazelle no

#

the ones which aren't are:

#

shitmodst

#

lightbringer

#

glass soul

#

and dream shield co-op

#

NOTE: being API just means you can sometimes use other mods with it

#

the mods are still good and you should play them

gritty gazelle
#

thanks

#

you are very helpful

#

maybe using more saves mod will be very helpful xD

#

what charm notch mod does?

leaden hedge
#

You get salubra notches for collecting charms

gritty gazelle
#

what nightmare god grimm doeS?

leaden hedge
#

Adds hard content into the game

gritty gazelle
#

like what?

leaden hedge
#

Its makes the nightmare king Grimm fight extremely hard

gritty gazelle
#

more than alredy is xD?

#

thanks for everything :3

#

i think that i am gona use Hell Mod+Randomiser

#

what is player data tracker?

#

and bonfire?

copper nacelle
#

bonfire lets you level up

leaden hedge
#

PDT let's you have overlays on your stream

gritty gazelle
#

oh okey

#

Hell Mod + Randomiser + Bonfire is compatible?

#

i will just try it

leaden hedge
#

It is

gritty gazelle
#

great, thanks

copper nacelle
#

idk if hell mod and bonfire damage will be weird

leaden hedge
#

Although hell and bonfire might override each others values

gritty gazelle
#

gotta bug them all

copper nacelle
#

@leaden hedge is more saves using a different API version

#

cause I compiled the newest thing from github and it still wouldn't work

#

also:

#

do you know why OnColliderCreate isn't affecting all enemies

leaden hedge
#

It does use a new version dunno if stuff for it got pulled

gritty gazelle
#

why randomizer mod says "New version avaible" upleft in game menu?

leaden hedge
#

Are you checking health_manager_enemy and health_manager

copper nacelle
#

health_manager_enemy

#

there's health_manager not enemy?

leaden hedge
#

Because there probably is a new version

#

Yes there is

gritty gazelle
#

i have 1.5.1, downloaded from google docs, where can i find another version?

rain cedar
#

It says that because the version checking is broken

gritty gazelle
#

oh

#

thanks then :3

copper nacelle
#

by got pulled do you mean not yet in the github thing?

rain cedar
#

I've been away from my desktop for winter break, but I'm going back to campus this weekend

copper nacelle
#

because I was compiling from the github thing

rain cedar
#

I've got a big list of things I need to fix/change for my mods

gritty gazelle
#

there is too much modders connected at same time .-. i will slowly run away to play the mods ok?

quartz trout
#

Is Lightbringer like a rework of the campaign, or..?

copper nacelle
#

rework of attacking

#

nail --> ranged lance

#

and charms are massively changed

#

and there's a new boss

quartz trout
#

Hmm, I might check it out

copper nacelle
#

do i t

#

also do randomizer

#

randomizer and lightbringer are really really fun

quartz trout
#

Oh, by the way, @leaden hedge , does Hollow Knight always break in the boss rush mod? Haven't been able to absorb him after beating him yet

#

Yeah I'm gonna check out the randomizer for sure, exploring is my favorite part of HK and that'd be like exploring it all over again

leaden hedge
#

That was fixed last patch

#

I released it on like DEC 22nd or something

quartz trout
#

Oh I probably need to update

#

Thanks :> Do the useless charms still show up as rewards?

#

Like gathering swarm/compass, the actually useless ones

leaden hedge
#

Yeah

#

Not sure how many I can remove without crashing it

quartz trout
#

Gotcha gotcha, not a big deal since I get pretty super strong anyway from the excess charms

leaden hedge
#

Yeah I'll probably be implementing a notch system where you can skip to gain notches

#

And for every charm over the limit you take 2x damage

quartz trout
#

Oh, I like that idea

rose barn
#

@copper nacelle drop me the file again please

#

i couldn't download before, wasn't home

copper nacelle
#

wait give me quarter of a se

#

KDT told me how to completely fix it

#

ok ~1 min till done testing

#

then will drop

#

doesn't seem to work on crawlids for some reason

#

they still have 8 health

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

rose barn
#

wait

#

did you change spell damage

#

or did you increase health...

copper nacelle
#

increased health which is basically decreasing spell damage

#

(because I also buffed nail)

rose barn
#

ahhh k

#

i was literally typing that's nerfing nail harder...

copper nacelle
#

OH shit

#

I think I figured out which enemies aren't working

#

it's the ones that respawn on room change

#

so the weak ones which don't matter

#

@rose barn tell me if you die

rose barn
#

ok

#

you wouldn't hear anything

#

until tof then

#

im 90% sure i cant pass that

copper nacelle
#

until tof thinkgrub

#

I haven't tried any hardish bosses besides mantis lords

#

and those were hell

rose barn
#

i believe

#

in dd spam

#

all i need is 9 notch

#

soul eacter/catcher/shaman

copper nacelle
#

nice

#

lol

#

@rose barn don't forget to get twister

#

twister is op

rose barn
#

11 requires me to actuallly beat grimm

#

i leave that until very late

copper nacelle
#

I don't find grimm bad

#

but that's probably because I did NKG hitless a bunch

rose barn
#

i never tried grimm with spells

#

so idk

rose barn
#

@copper nacelle i died in deepnest

#

kms forgot to grab dream gate

copper nacelle
#

rip

rose barn
#

i did hornet 2, watcher kngihts, that's like all the difficult stuff in the main game

copper nacelle
#

holy shit

rose barn
#

and then a deepenst fker killed me

#

im done

copper nacelle
#

that's at least 80% of the way to proof

rose barn
#

im goign to try steelsoul again

#

tomorrow

copper nacelle
#

you also proved verulean trash at hk

#

also nice

#

I look forward to seeing you beat everyone else

rose barn
#

btw what mods stack

copper nacelle
#

hellmod, glass soul api, and randomizer

#

I think

#

bonfire might stack with randomizer and glass soul as well

#

Nameless god grimm with all API I think

fair rampart
#

nice 56 what did you nerf

spice spade
#

mm how do i install the lightbringer mod

#

e\

gritty gazelle
#

you have to move contain of the mod zip on the game`s folder

spice spade
#

i did its not working

buoyant obsidian
#

Verify your game files on Steam then try again

spice spade
#

im not using steam on it

buoyant obsidian
#

Hopefully you backed up your files then

#

I'm not sure if other services have a verify game files equivalent

#

You can also just try installing it again following the instructions in the readme.txt

spice spade
#

already did that

#

i even redownloaded hollow knight

buoyant obsidian
#

Is the game crashing or just loading up like normal?

spice spade
#

at first it kept crashing when i replaced the files but now it just loads up but this time i skipped the files

buoyant obsidian
#

Replace the hollow_knight_data folder then replace the Assembly-CSharp.dll file from the DRM-free folder

#

If you're on 1.2.2.1 it'll definitely work

#

(as long as you're on Windows)

spice spade
#

i literely just did what u said

#

ima go test it then a nd comeback

#

e

#

well know my game s in a infinite loading state

buoyant obsidian
#

I really don't know what to say
Mystery solved, he was using the cracked version

young walrus
#

_gitgud

gritty gazelle
#

there is any mod that adds bosses modifications?

young walrus
#

NGG

#

Nightmare god grimm

#

You could say boss rush kinda does I guess

gritty gazelle
#

how NGG modiffies the grimm?

hazy sentinel
#

you die

young walrus
#

You can't win

#

Grimm is legion

buoyant obsidian
#

Lightbringer has a single modified boss

young walrus
#

#playlightbringer

gritty gazelle
#

yeah i played lightbringer

hazy sentinel
#

technically there's still like a -5% chance of beating NGG hollowface

gritty gazelle
#

-5% is something e.e

#

@spice spade you mean pirate games?

#

1 link mega full?

spice spade
#

well i guess

#

dont get me wrong im not a pirate just asking😐

gritty gazelle
#

i think yes because i play games on GOG and in gog are drm free

hazy sentinel
#

buy the game kthx

fair rampart
#

Well

gritty gazelle
#

you buy game on GOG but they are like pirate games

fair rampart
#

u should test it

gritty gazelle
#

so yes, they should work

fair rampart
#

I heard it doesn't work on GOG

gritty gazelle
#

they are working on GOG

#

i am playing mods on GOG

spice spade
#

what about ocean of games

gritty gazelle
#

wtf is that

spice spade
#

ik all this because i tested it

#

its anoter pirate site

gritty gazelle
#

GOG is not apirate site e.e

spice spade
#

what is itthinkgrub

gritty gazelle
#

but the games are DRM-free (works no steam)

#

you dont need steam or be connected to something to play DRM-free games

#

are just like the pirate games but buying the games

spice spade
#

whats its name ill download it then and test

gritty gazelle
#

in GOG you have to buy the games

spice spade
#

wait what

#

oh ok

gritty gazelle
#

you are giving money to the creators of Hollow Knight and the other games

#

the games are cheapers because the % of the price that gog gets is lower than the steam %

spice spade
#

then what if a game cost $0.01

gritty gazelle
#

Hollow Knight in gog is 8.82 usd

spice spade
#

oh ok

gritty gazelle
#

in steam is 15usd

spice spade
gritty gazelle
#

so i will keep playing the mods

spice spade
#

oh ok

fair rampart
#

hollow knight here on steam is 7.75usd according to google

#

Regional diffrences i guess

spice spade
#

btw im only 6-7 hours into hollow knight first playthrough

buoyant obsidian
#

perhaps it's not time for mods then

spice spade
#

ik

gritty gazelle
#

@fair rampart discounts maybe?

fair rampart
#

nop not a discount

spice spade
#

and im playing it on an intel hd graphics card

fair rampart
#

I said according to google cuz

#

i translated the currency here to usd

gritty gazelle
#

ohhh

fair rampart
#

so it might not be quite accurate

gritty gazelle
#

yeah

fair rampart
#

@spice spade what cpu?

gritty gazelle
#

in my country (Argentina) is like 10 usd

spice spade
#

intel celoron 1.60 ghz

fair rampart
#

Ah i see

#

@gritty gazelle noice

spice spade
#

i did some tweaking to make it run over 30 fps

fair rampart
#

My pc is crap so i run it in windowed

gritty gazelle
#

the price changing on steam was helpfull for some countrys

fair rampart
#

At low res

spice spade
#

me to

#

can someone help me becaus i have some realy bad fps drop it goes from 30-40 to 0-10 pls and it last 5 seconds ppls help

gritty gazelle
#

i dont know

#

but maybe

fair rampart
#

When does that happen?

gritty gazelle
#

closing google will help

#

google uses a lot of ram

fair rampart
#

^

spice spade
#

like every 10 minutes it happens

gritty gazelle
#

try closing google

#

and other ram eater things

#

the Hollow Knight was invicible because my ram crashed

spice spade
#

wow

gritty gazelle
#

btw i win

#

and i uploaded it to youtube

#

also

spice spade
#

whats the video

gritty gazelle
#

i battled Grimm UNderground

spice spade
#

kweel

gritty gazelle
#

i uploaded that video to

spice spade
#

what the video

gritty gazelle
#

?

#

not understanding

#

spanish

#

want to see the video?

spice spade
#

yyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

gritty gazelle
#

here is ti

spice spade
fair rampart
#

Oh yeah

#

My brother has the boss invisible

#

And he tried restarting the game and other things, still didn't work

gritty gazelle
#

i was playing boss rush

#

and i get out of the room

spice spade
#

why are u invisible

gritty gazelle
#

and the boss rush get bugged so i had to uninstall the mod :8

#

i am underground in the grimm batlle

#

you can see me jumping sometimes

spice spade
#

oh yea i just analzed the title

#

i thougt u would be in like the actual undergroung like in the weaver dens or something

gritty gazelle
#

nope, just under the ground

spice spade
#

kwell

gritty gazelle
#

what are you doing?

spice spade
#

what u meanthinkgrub

gritty gazelle
#

just what are you doing .-.

spice spade
#

sitting in ma bed talkig on discord

gritty gazelle
#

do you have buyed Hollow Knight?

spice spade
#

its no dont got no money

gritty gazelle
#

i had the same problem before

#

what discord are you in?

spice spade
#

anyway is it better to us ea keybard or controllr

leaden hedge
#

No

spice spade
#

oh sorry my internet stopped for a second

#

so which is better

leaden hedge
#

I play on an arcade stick and can play the game at "high" level

spice spade
#

what

buoyant obsidian
#

Personally I use a brainwave helmet

spice spade
#

lit

gritty gazelle
#

r u trolling him?

leaden hedge
#

I play on a qanba q1 and can match trinomi and monstahler boss kill times, you can play on whatever

gritty gazelle
#

playing with a arcade stick sounds fun

#

now i want to play the game with a arcade stick

leaden hedge
#

Its slightly easier with a keyboard to hard skips

#

But nothing you'd need to do outside of a gimmick speedrun

spice spade
#

what that

fair rampart
#

Gimmick speedrun, aka doing glitches

#

Basically keyboard is more precise, but even in glitch speedruns its still better to just stick to waht you're used to

leaden hedge
#

Nah like most glitches are pretty easy but some of the low% or meme route nmg is easier on kb

fair rampart
#

Basically its a slight advantage

#

but nothing too much

leaden hedge
#

But nothing uses that advantage

fair rampart
#

Not worth switching over if u r already on controller

#

Ya exactly

spice spade
#

i use keboard dont got a controller (that works anyways)

fair rampart
#

Ya same

spice spade
#

do u have acess to a cntroller

gritty gazelle
#

i use a ps3 controller

#

because my little brother has a ps3

#

so i take one of his controllers to play HK

young walrus
#

wow u dirty theif

fair rampart
#

wow u dirty theif

spice spade
#

lol

copper nacelle
#

@fair rampart nerfed damage of spells and stuff by 20%

#

is what I did

fair rampart
#

Nice b

#

How far did lethere get in steel soul

copper nacelle
#

super far

#

past watcher knights and hornet 2

#

died in deepnest sadgrub

fair rampart
#

Died in deepnest but survived hornet 2 first try

#

What

copper nacelle
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

fair rampart
#

Does glass soul work with the API?

#

Anyone?

#

Aaaa it doesnt

#

@buoyant obsidian is there any way to make glass soul work with api?

buoyant obsidian
#

There's an API version

fair rampart
#

There is?

#

Ah

#

Where do i get it?

#

Can't find it :l

pearl sentinel
fair rampart
#

lol

pearl sentinel
#

i kindof want to just put a zote in town that always tries to kill you as you walk through

fair rampart
#

Mantis village or traitor mantis camp

copper nacelle
#

@fair rampart it's not in the google drive

#

I don't think there's a compiled version available

#

I'll compile it if you want

fair rampart
#

Would be apreciated

vagrant leaf
#

how does dreamshield co-op work?

copper nacelle
vagrant leaf
#

i read the readme inside but i have no friends to test it out

copper nacelle
#

iirc numpad is the dreamshield movement

#

and press 2 to teleport to dreamshield

vagrant leaf
#

does it have free movement?

fair rampart
#

I just put it in the mods folder, right?

copper nacelle
#

yes and yes

fair rampart
#

lright thanks

#

Lemme test it

#

Yea it worked

#

Thanksss

copper nacelle
#

yw

fair rampart
#

Is there any way to equip charms without sitting on a bench?

fair rampart
#

Ok so atm i'm pretty sure the reason debug keeps breaking is making new saves

#

Everytime i make a new save its like an 80% chance of crashing

#

I have boss rush installed too btw

buoyant obsidian
buoyant wasp
#

i don't get the implication

ornate rivet
#

@buoyant obsidian
Does lightbringer have lore?

stray mirage
#

yes

#

you bring the light

#

that's kind of the deal

ornate rivet
#

but then why do you fight the radiance

buoyant obsidian
#

Because Empress Muzznik

charred parrot
#

is there a way to see how Team Cherry set up the FSMs for objects in the game?

charred parrot
#

oooo

#

thanks

buoyant wasp
#

there's also a pinned FSM viewer

charred parrot
#

which one is the viewer?

rain cedar
#

Doesn't actually look like it's pinned

copper nacelle
#

@charred parrot use the FSM viewer and the FSM viewer mod thingy

#

the mod outputs a shit load of .json files

#

you put var fsm = before the beginning of the file

#

and rename it to data.json

#

and put it in the folder of the VIEWER

#

then you can look at the FSM

buoyant wasp
#

i also put out one that works in win10 that doesn't require the rename, it's basically the same code, except you point it at a folder and can load them all just by a simple search

copper nacelle
#

ooh

#

nice

#

I'll probably switch to that then

buoyant wasp
#

just search for the from:wyza, has:file. it's up there somewhere from a couple weeks ago

copper nacelle
charred parrot
#

hmmm

buoyant wasp
#

yeah, that's it

#

though you could clone and run it just as easily too

copper nacelle
#

🆒

#

no more renaming

#

life is good

buoyant wasp
#

@charred parrot - pretty much. The FSM stuff is crazy

copper nacelle
#

FSM stuff is evil

#

evil

vagrant leaf
#

wait lightbringer has lore

#

real lore?

charred parrot
#

oh boy

#

Mod Lore

#

1 step above general fanfictions

#

Ya I've been looking at a couple of FSMs for enemy AI. Shit gets real spaghetti looking after a while.

copper nacelle
#

after a while 10 seconds

charred parrot
#

I'm sure it made perfect logical sense as it was being put together

#

but as an outsider looking in

#

yeeeeesh

buoyant wasp
#

you are rather generous

#

as game creators, TC are great, as programmers.....well, not

rain cedar
#

Playmaker isn't even programming, though

buoyant wasp
#

no, but it is logic. which, in general, is something you expect from a programmer

rain cedar
#

The biggest problem with all the FSM stuff is how poorly they organized the states visually

buoyant wasp
#

yeah

rain cedar
#

Which is of course going to lead to missing logic errors

#

Because it just looks like a plate of spaghetti

buoyant wasp
#

spaghetti would taste better

copper nacelle
#

charred parrot
#

well I mean I assume when they put the game together they were like "let's make this thing work" and not "let's give future modders an aneurysm".

rain cedar
#

Yes because the only reason to have well maintained game code/fsm/whatever is for the benefit of modders

charred parrot
#

fair enough

#

kk gonna try to look at these things now

#

asking me for sketchy certifications

#

always good

buoyant obsidian
#

Does infected crossroads have different scene names from normal crossroads?

rain cedar
#

Nah don't think so

buoyant obsidian
#

hmm

#

I just got a report that someone killed Empress Muzznik in a single cyclone slash and wasn't sure why

rain cedar
#

A single cyclone slash could easily be like 400 damage

#

I don't know how much health you put on this thing

#

Oh wait it's probably not affected by fs or fury

#

So it couldn't be anywhere near that much

buoyant obsidian
#

1500 hp

#

Figured it out

#

Colosseum of Fools Gruz Mother happened

#

I guess you can skip the Gruz Mother arena fight and still get 106%

rain cedar
#

Not unless you've changed the % calculation

buoyant obsidian
charred parrot
#

good ol' bigfly

buoyant obsidian
#

This gets satisfied by the Colosseum

charred parrot
#

question

#

is every single room a different scene

buoyant obsidian
#

depending on your definition of room yeah

charred parrot
#

like "load zone" I guess

buoyant obsidian
#

Yeah I think so

charred parrot
#

I recently got into game design and I'm super interested in learning how they put the game together

rain cedar
#

It's just unity scenes

charred parrot
#

and they just have some FSM causing the transitions between them?

rain cedar
#

I don't think transitions are triggered by an FSM

#

Maybe

#

If you just look at the load functions in dnspy you can see what calls them

#

If there's nothing from a class like TransitionPoint it's likely FSM

charred parrot
#

hmm

#

kk

#

Its actually nice to see how active the modding community is

#

mods are the lifeblood of games after normal development ends

buoyant wasp
#

heh, the last 4 weeks we've been increadibly inactive

#

compared the previous 3 months hollowface

charred parrot
#

santa stealing the modders away?

buoyant wasp
#

something to that effect

#

holidays, plus for me anyway, was approaching burnout. had been working on stuff like 2-3 hours a day for several weeks and it was getting bleh.

soft rain
#

does boss rush integrate with lightbringer?

rain cedar
#

Nah, lightbringer is one of the few mods that isn't really compatible with anything

leaden hedge
#

It could be if a certain numerically named person ported it but alas

rain cedar
#

Maybe you should do it

leaden hedge
#

If 753 gives me all the relevant code I'll do it

crimson venture
#

The randomizer mod is so much fun, i'm learning a lot of stuff i've never thought of doing before like crystal peak without mantis claws. Seanpr and Firzen did a great job moon2CUTE

ornate rivet
#

I think I got stuck in the soul sanctum after beating soul master

#

I dont have mantis claw or dash and there is an area where I cant pogo off of anything and my double jump isnt high enough

fair rampart
#

well rip

ornate rivet
#

also, killing soul master locks you there so you cant quit to menu to respawn at bench

crimson venture
#

@ornate rivet i was in the same situation about 5 mins ago

ornate rivet
#

did you fix it?

crimson venture
#

yeah

ornate rivet
#

how

crimson venture
#

i had desolate dive though

ornate rivet
#

what did you do

crimson venture
#

i don't know if you're doing the randomizer as well

ornate rivet
#

yes I am

crimson venture
#

i just quit and joined until i was able to get out

#

part by part

ornate rivet
#

what

crimson venture
#

what exact part are you stuck on

ornate rivet
crimson venture
#

you pogo off of the breakable object in the background, it respawns if you leave the room

ornate rivet
#

WAT

crimson venture
#

ye

ornate rivet
#

There's a breakable object there...

#

wow

crimson venture
#

that's how i did crystal peak

#

it's tough

ornate rivet
#

yea, I know the crystal peak skip

#

thanks, too bad I deleted it because I thought I was locked

crimson venture
#

welp

#

i did that yesterday

leaden hedge
#

but I'm sure no one would notice that

ripe plover
#

boss rush made me realize that radiance is possible without double jump

fair rampart
#

Really?

leaden hedge
#

you only need claw

fair rampart
#

what if you have neither

leaden hedge
#

you can't do the final ascent

buoyant wasp
#

lol, "somehow"

buoyant obsidian
#

Free Lightbringer source code

#

beware, it's terrifying

rain cedar
#

Ok sure @fair rampart

leaden hedge
#

if it crashes on ModLoader.cs on line 228 it doesn't happen

#

and you don't even need to go into any menu for it to break

buoyant wasp
#

does it unbind your entire keyboard?

leaden hedge
#

yeah cant rebind it either

#

unbinds the controller except for dreamnail or smth

#

but that still works

#

kb is still unresponsive

buoyant wasp
#

blink

#

boggle

leaden hedge
#

but yeah if you can fix that all you need to do is
A) merge it into modding api
B) add cancel action in MenuSelectable for quitting out of the mod menu
C) call a callback in FauxMenuOptionHorizontal.UpdateSetting to tell the mod the new updated value
bonus points for
D) getting a list of strings from the mod as options i.e. off, easy, normal, hard

#

I guess there is one other issue in that if you have like 15 mods installed it'll go over the back button and then offscreen

buoyant wasp
#

lol

#

well, and I need to write the code in there to have it go unload the mod.

vagrant leaf
#

shoud blackmoth start with shadow dash?

leaden hedge
#

yes

#

as its the only way to do damage

vagrant leaf
#

ah

#

okay i thought i installed it wrong

buoyant wasp
#

@leaden hedge - I'm sure i've missed something simple, but i was trying to use CanvasUtil to add an onscreen copy of the ModLog.txt in the API (going to toggle it via a config entry). It seems to "work", but doesn't show up. I'm guessing I need to add it to the gui somehow, but I must be missing it

#
internal class Console : MonoBehaviour
    {
        public static GameObject OverlayCanvas;
        private static GameObject _textPanel;
        public void Start()
        {
            DontDestroyOnLoad(gameObject);

            if (OverlayCanvas == null) { 
                CanvasUtil.CreateFonts();
                OverlayCanvas = CanvasUtil.CreateCanvas(RenderMode.ScreenSpaceOverlay, new Vector2(1920, 1080));
                OverlayCanvas.name = "ModdingApiConsoleLog";
                DontDestroyOnLoad(OverlayCanvas);
                _textPanel = CanvasUtil.CreateTextPanel(OverlayCanvas, string.Empty, 32, TextAnchor.MiddleCenter,
                    new CanvasUtil.RectData(new Vector2(1920, 200), new Vector2(0, 410)), true);
                
            }
        }

        public void AddText(string message)
        {
            if (_textPanel != null)
                _textPanel.GetComponent<UnityEngine.UI.Text>().text += message + "\n";
        }
    }
#
        internal void LogConsole(string message)
        {
            if (GlobalSettings.ShowDebugLogInGame)
            {
                if (_console == null)
                    _console = new Console();

                _console.AddText(message);
            }
        }
#

so the first thing is the class

the second thing is inside of ModHooks

#

guessing that after I instantiate Console() i need to add it to something

#

its a monobehaviour so it needs to be on a gameobject

#

GameObject go = new GameObject();
Console c = go.AddComponent<Console>();

#

instead of new Console()

leaden hedge
#

well _console

buoyant wasp
#

yeah

#

i follow

#

i'm guessing my method to add the text isn't the best since I'm rewriting whatever the window is every time, but I have no idea how to make an actual scrollable text box that you can just append to

#

scroll rects are weird

#

we'll see once i have it working if it really matters

#

probably won't

#

unless someone tries to dump thousands of lines to the modlog

#

it's hard to not fall into the "premature optimization" trap

buoyant wasp
#

"why isn't this still working", "because the setting that controls whether or not to even try to show it is off", derp
