#

Pretty much just the hero and main menu

#

And no there's not a map editor

dapper sun Feb 11, 2018, 9:55 AM

#

Hmmm so adding absolutely new content like new areas in the game would be problematic, then...

leaden hedge Feb 11, 2018, 9:57 AM

#

Not really

dapper sun Feb 11, 2018, 9:58 AM

#

Not really?

#

As in - there is actually the way to work it around?

leaden hedge Feb 11, 2018, 9:59 AM

#

New content would be no more difficult than making the assets

#

You can probably just create the level in unity and load it in hk

dapper sun Feb 11, 2018, 10:01 AM

#

Hmmm. Gotta get into figuring this out then.

#

I have that idea drilling my head. I need to do either something to make progress on it, or something that I'd abandon it for good.

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:02 AM

#

ok i think this is the channel to ask so uh in lightbringer wtf is up with super gruz mother

#

is it just straight up invulnerable?

dapper sun Feb 11, 2018, 10:04 AM

#

Haven't played the mod, so not sure? But my guess may lie that it is just much healthier than original, and you deal much less damage due to ranged nail?

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:05 AM

#

thing is it makes a big deal out of being "unworthy" with a text pop up when you enter the room and all

#

and it's the gruz mother, which i'm supposed to kill early to get sly and salubra

#

it's not supposed to be an endgame boss lmao

dapper sun Feb 11, 2018, 10:08 AM

#

That's a question up to @buoyant obsidian alley, i guess

#

Like, I am sure it is doable? Just like Hornet battle, on which people been complaining not once at least in the past, while I had no problems with it

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:10 AM

#

but uh

#

hornet actually takes damage?

dapper sun Feb 11, 2018, 10:11 AM

#

There is no indication that gruz mother takes damage? Like flashing or stuff

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:12 AM

#

it does, but i went full ham on it for long enough that it should have been dead 15 times and it wasn't dead

#

like it has radiance hp

dapper sun Feb 11, 2018, 10:13 AM

#

Her regular health on that stage of progression is 90. Your unmodded nail damage is... 3

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:14 AM

#

i was doing it with the first nail upgrade

dapper sun Feb 11, 2018, 10:14 AM

#

You need to land 30 successful hits on her to beat her. Unless her health is boosted.

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:14 AM

#

or well, first lance upgrade

#

i'm 100% sure i landed that if not more

dapper sun Feb 11, 2018, 10:15 AM

#

You already got first lance update?

#

That would be 6 damage then

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:15 AM

#

yeah i've been to city of tears already

dapper sun Feb 11, 2018, 10:16 AM

#

Which is 15 hits, unless her health is boosted. To at least 120

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:16 AM

#

by all means i should have killed gruz mother way earlier in an unmodded playthrough

dapper sun Feb 11, 2018, 10:16 AM

#

Which makes 20 hits

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:17 AM

#

she also spawns gruzzers that have the same problem of just not fucking dying ever

dapper sun Feb 11, 2018, 10:17 AM

#

Well normal nail deals 5 damage. It is 18 hits on regular gruz mother

young walrus Feb 11, 2018, 10:17 AM

#

It's meant to be a final boss

#

It's super buffed

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:17 AM

#

um

dapper sun Feb 11, 2018, 10:17 AM

#

You are joking, right

young walrus Feb 11, 2018, 10:17 AM

#

No

dapper sun Feb 11, 2018, 10:17 AM

#

This can't be true

#

Can it?

young walrus Feb 11, 2018, 10:17 AM

#

Why not. It's a mod

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:18 AM

#

so am i supposed to access salubra and sly from resting grounds then?

young walrus Feb 11, 2018, 10:18 AM

#

You have to come in from blue lake, yeah

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:18 AM

#

also why gruz mother of all bosses

young walrus Feb 11, 2018, 10:18 AM

#

Unless you can beat empress muzznik

dapper sun Feb 11, 2018, 10:18 AM

#

Oh god

#

I am having a hard time believeing you are serious, but somehow it seems you are

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:18 AM

#

whose idea was it to make the gruz mother an endgame boss

dapper sun Feb 11, 2018, 10:19 AM

#

You know who

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:19 AM

#

how does one have such genius to make a mod like lightbringer, and then decide to make gruz mother an endgame boss

young walrus Feb 11, 2018, 10:20 AM

#

You can choose to believe me or not. Go find out for yourself

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:20 AM

#

anwyay that explains a lot

young walrus Feb 11, 2018, 10:20 AM

#

B/c it's hilarious. And makes it harder to reach 2 OP shops

dapper sun Feb 11, 2018, 10:20 AM

#

Well they are not just OP, they're kinda nessessary to progress.

#

Like, having lightbulb?

young walrus Feb 11, 2018, 10:21 AM

#

Not necessary

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:21 AM

#

having light is basically required for deepnest

young walrus Feb 11, 2018, 10:22 AM

#

So progress further, then come back and beat the empress

dapper sun Feb 11, 2018, 10:22 AM

#

Some switches are inacessible without having lightbulb, though some areas you can try and do blind, like deepnest.

young walrus Feb 11, 2018, 10:22 AM

#

I like how you're explaining game mechanics to me. Lol

dapper sun Feb 11, 2018, 10:22 AM

#

Sorry sorry!

#

But well, what I mean the lightbulb is still a thing for 100% run, right?

#

Not a "not nessesary" thing

young walrus Feb 11, 2018, 10:23 AM

#

Doesn't count as a percentage. But you can't fight the dream warrior in deepest without it

#

But again.... You can get there from blue lake

#

It's not blocked off forever or anything

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:25 AM

#

it's still silly to me since sly is pretty important to have and salubra is also neccesary if you want to have good charms ever

young walrus Feb 11, 2018, 10:25 AM

#

So go around

#

Lol

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:25 AM

#

i would if i could go to the resting grounds but crystal peak is my nightmare

young walrus Feb 11, 2018, 10:26 AM

#

Go thru CoT

#

Beat dung defender

#

And you can ride the huge elevator

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:27 AM

#

might as well do crystal peak i'm already there and trying to get heart

young walrus Feb 11, 2018, 10:27 AM

#

If you have dive

#

Otherwise going through peaks won't work to get to blue lake

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:27 AM

#

i have dive

young walrus Feb 11, 2018, 10:27 AM

#

Kk

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:27 AM

#

i've been to CoT

#

beat soul master

dapper sun Feb 11, 2018, 10:29 AM

#

Dung Defender is neat but pretty ez in normal game. Getting to blue lake through him sounds like a solid idea.

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:29 AM

#

tfw get shopkeeper's key before meeting sly

young walrus Feb 11, 2018, 10:30 AM

#

Once you open their shops, you'll see why they were blocked off

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:30 AM

#

i guess

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:36 AM

oh god i forgot the crystallized mound is dark

#

in that case my only option is to go through CoT

dapper sun Feb 11, 2018, 10:41 AM

#

Say hi to Defender from me

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 10:42 AM

#

i think i'll let my lance do the talkin

#

clearly it's not a very good negotiator, judging by how hard i got murdered

fair rampart Feb 11, 2018, 1:32 PM

#

how does one change binds in debug

exotic venture Feb 11, 2018, 1:35 PM

#

you select the bind, then it should pop up as [Press a key]

#

and then you rebinded it

#

should be a menu on the right side of the screen

fair rampart Feb 11, 2018, 1:35 PM

#

well heres the problem

#

for some reason whenever I try to use the mouse in debug

#

to select something

#

it goes to the pause menu

#

and closes pause menu

exotic venture Feb 11, 2018, 1:37 PM

#

then you probably rebound your pause menu button to left click

#

gg

fair rampart Feb 11, 2018, 1:38 PM

#

you cant even bind them to mouse buttons iirc

exotic venture Feb 11, 2018, 1:38 PM

#

you can

#

you most definitely can

#

to reset debug mod's settings

#

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

#

delete all the .json and .json.bak files

fair rampart Feb 11, 2018, 1:41 PM

#

ay finally

#

its not a miserable mess to use

exotic venture Feb 11, 2018, 1:43 PM

#

~~that was probably because you rebound all your keys when you smashed your face on the keyboard~~ good job man

fair rampart Feb 11, 2018, 1:43 PM

#

yes I did accidentally rebind all the keys

#

and only then realized what Id done

exotic venture Feb 11, 2018, 1:44 PM

#

but yeah, set the value of dive to 1

#

save at a bench

#

and uninstall mod

fair rampart Feb 11, 2018, 1:46 PM

#

i didnt save at bench but still got it

exotic venture Feb 11, 2018, 1:47 PM

#

neat

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 7:18 PM

#

does a list of charms in lightbringer + their effects exist?

fair rampart Feb 11, 2018, 7:24 PM

#

Yes

#

On the moddb

trim grove Feb 11, 2018, 7:27 PM

#

where is that list? the moddb says 'several new charms' and thats about it

copper nacelle Feb 11, 2018, 7:33 PM

#

Slight hell mod update, adding to drive in a sec

📎 HellMod.dll

#

makes it so zote is now a god and can't be neglected

#

and makes nail upgrades no longer a thing

#

you can upgrade but you won't get a damage buff

#

@vagrant leaf as requested

vagrant leaf Feb 11, 2018, 7:36 PM

#

thank

#

why can't you neglect zote

#

neglect is the only path

copper nacelle Feb 11, 2018, 7:36 PM

#

because missing the boss fight is sad

#

now I've got to go see what happens

#

when you get to the vengefly king

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 7:44 PM

#

there's no list of charms on moddb

austere torrent Feb 11, 2018, 7:44 PM

#

@leaden hedge your thing works after I updated

#

you're a life saver

fair rampart Feb 11, 2018, 7:52 PM

#

@gusty sparrow Well my bad I guess

#

I'm pretty sure there's a list somewhere

#

1 sec

gusty sparrow Feb 11, 2018, 8:27 PM

#

find anything?

buoyant obsidian Feb 11, 2018, 10:09 PM

#

does anybody here have any experience with SML?

hollow pier Feb 11, 2018, 10:40 PM

#

super meat loy

young walrus Feb 11, 2018, 10:41 PM

#

Super Mario luigi

copper nacelle Feb 11, 2018, 10:51 PM

#

I searched that and got Super Mario Logan

rain cedar Feb 11, 2018, 11:02 PM

#

Guys the ml clearly stands for markup language

#

You have to look up sml markup language for relevant results

copper nacelle Feb 11, 2018, 11:03 PM

#

it's clearly https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_ML

Standard ML

Standard ML (SML; Standard Meta Language) is a general-purpose, modular, functional programming language with compile-time type checking and type inference. It is popular among compiler writers and programming language researchers, as well as in ...

hollow pier Feb 11, 2018, 11:03 PM

#

its obviously super mantis lords

#

@copper nacelle still waiting

copper nacelle Feb 11, 2018, 11:03 PM

#

it'll happen

#

eventually

exotic venture Feb 11, 2018, 11:04 PM

#

it's obviously Serious Modding Language

#

the best language

hollow pier Feb 11, 2018, 11:04 PM

#

thats what you said about machinegun grimm

#

"shouldnt take more than 5 minutes"

copper nacelle Feb 11, 2018, 11:04 PM

that will happen after gods and glory

hollow pier Feb 11, 2018, 11:04 PM

#

cornywoke

copper nacelle Feb 11, 2018, 11:04 PM

but mantis lords have colliders so less pain probably

spare matrix Feb 12, 2018, 2:21 AM

#

can someone give me the most recent version of the bonfire mod?

young walrus Feb 12, 2018, 2:21 AM

#

should be on the google drive

#

dunno if it is though..... cough @solemn rivet

solemn rivet Feb 12, 2018, 2:22 AM

#

eh

#

it is

#

I guess

#

why?

#

any issues with it?

spare matrix Feb 12, 2018, 2:23 AM

#

it crashed when I tried it

young walrus Feb 12, 2018, 2:23 AM

#

was just making sure it was the most recent

#

do you have the API installed?

spare matrix Feb 12, 2018, 2:23 AM

#

it was 1.2.1.4

solemn rivet Feb 12, 2018, 2:23 AM

#

can you play any other mods?

young walrus Feb 12, 2018, 2:23 AM

#

^

solemn rivet Feb 12, 2018, 2:23 AM

#

no, it's 1.2.2.1, like all API mods

spare matrix Feb 12, 2018, 2:23 AM

#

the version I got said 1.2.1.4

young walrus Feb 12, 2018, 2:23 AM

#

which API version did you install?

#

I'm guessing 1.2.1.4 then?

#

you have to install the API that matches what game version you have

solemn rivet Feb 12, 2018, 2:24 AM

#

eh

#

did you get it on the google drive?

spare matrix Feb 12, 2018, 2:24 AM

#

this is my first mod i have no idea how stuff works

young walrus Feb 12, 2018, 2:25 AM

#

The API plugs into the game's code. All API mods then use that to plug into what they specifically need

#

so you have to have the API installed as a base

spare matrix Feb 12, 2018, 2:25 AM

#

where would I get the API?

[Hollow Knight] How to install Boss Rush mod

All the credit for making the modding API and the Boss Rush mod itself goes to Seanpr, Firzen, Wyza and KDT. If you have any further questions, feel free to ...

▶ Play video

#

it's basically the same, but with bonfire instead of bossrush

young walrus Feb 12, 2018, 2:26 AM

#

^ that too

#

will show you step-by-step how to install any API based mod

#

which is basically all of them, excpet.... lightbringer

#

I think that's the only one anyways

#

oh, Hell mod might be non-API

spare matrix Feb 12, 2018, 2:31 AM

#

i don't see a labeled 1.2.2.1 for bonfire, which one is it?

leaden hedge Feb 12, 2018, 2:33 AM

#

Can anyone be so kind to check if the save editor correctly updates notches

solemn rivet Feb 12, 2018, 2:34 AM

#

it's the one with [API] on it

copper nacelle Feb 12, 2018, 2:38 AM

#

@young walrus hell mod is api re

#

not using the api seems like a pain

young walrus Feb 12, 2018, 2:39 AM

#

Well I didn't know if it was or not

#

Good to know

austere torrent Feb 12, 2018, 2:41 AM

#

Can someone check if KDT's editor updates notches correctly?

#

It doesn't for me

spare matrix Feb 12, 2018, 2:43 AM

#

so I just paste the API and the mod in?

leaden hedge Feb 12, 2018, 2:53 AM

#

Looking at the code it doesn't although, notches aren't a percent

#

So it doesn't really matter now that I think about it

#

Whoever added the autocalc function forgot to make max notches update in the json

austere torrent Feb 12, 2018, 2:56 AM

#

um

#

well

#

more notches help?

#

I guess

leaden hedge Feb 12, 2018, 2:57 AM

#

I guess

#

You can wait until Wednesday and I can update it

austere torrent Feb 12, 2018, 3:07 AM

#

ok

hearty willow Feb 12, 2018, 4:50 AM

#

frickin lightbringer lost kin

#

@buoyant obsidian did you increase enemy hp values or just massively decrease nail/lance damage

#

seems like the latter

#

because spells still work just fine

buoyant obsidian Feb 12, 2018, 4:52 AM

#

decreased damage

copper nacelle Feb 12, 2018, 4:52 AM

#

isn't it just by 1 per nail upgrade or something

dapper sun Feb 12, 2018, 5:25 AM

#

Wasn't moddb page specifically says 3 damage +3 per upgrade?

trim grove Feb 12, 2018, 5:25 AM

#

yeah, 3+ (3 * nailup)

dapper sun Feb 12, 2018, 5:27 AM

#

Ah, yeah. That is more correct fomula and I am dumb a bit.

#

Also I am late with notches thing? I guess so.

#

Altho wait, that's basically the same to what I said. Still sleepy a bt.

trim grove Feb 12, 2018, 5:30 AM

#

indeed, just a bit more specified hollowface

dapper sun Feb 12, 2018, 5:40 AM

#

Also checked the notches. I have changed both variables (equipped notches and max notches), after running the game, max notches amount got reset back to 10.

#

Equipped notches amount remained the same in save data

hollow tree Feb 12, 2018, 7:28 AM

#

Is it correct that you can't install mods for the Linux version of the game? I thought I've read something like that somewhere.

rain cedar Feb 12, 2018, 7:32 AM

#

It might work to try the mac version of the api

#

Probably not

#

It would have the correct forward slashes instead of windows backslashes

hollow tree Feb 12, 2018, 8:00 AM

#

I'll try it later. :)

solemn rivet Feb 12, 2018, 1:37 PM

#

@spare matrix did you manage to get it working?

spare matrix Feb 12, 2018, 2:06 PM

#

Yeah, I did. Thank you!

pearl sentinel Feb 12, 2018, 3:01 PM

#

Gradow, any other thoughts on that installer script? I was thinking might try seeing if I could add functionality to also download and install the latest modding api

solemn rivet Feb 12, 2018, 3:03 PM

#

I was literally just going to open it and see if I could change it to also be able to select which .dlls to install, the same way you can select the .exe

pearl sentinel Feb 12, 2018, 3:10 PM

#

You could probably easily copy the file selection part and enable the multi file select flag and then use the return of that operation to fill in a variable for what to copy

solemn rivet Feb 12, 2018, 3:18 PM

#

that's what I'm trying to do

fair rampart Feb 12, 2018, 3:23 PM

#

does HPBar work for NKG

solemn rivet Feb 12, 2018, 3:33 PM

#

I think it does for every boss

fair rampart Feb 12, 2018, 3:39 PM

#

well thats weird, pretty sure NKG would be in bossrush so KDT would notice if the bar's not working for it anyway

#

also

#

does glass soul nail damage increase by masks

#

add to base damage?

#

Yes

#

Upgrades work too ithink

fair rampart Feb 12, 2018, 4:10 PM

#

huh thats interesting

#

the health bar didnt work throughout

#

and only kicked in after his last pufferfish

hollow tree Feb 12, 2018, 5:28 PM

@rain cedar Just to give feedback on Linux and the modding API: I tried the Windows and the Mac OS version and both result in the same phenomenon that I can start the game but the menu doesn't load. Just for the record, I used the 1.2.2.1 version of the modding API with the 1.2.2.0 verion of the game. It seems that Linux is a version behind.

buoyant wasp Feb 12, 2018, 5:40 PM

#

we can probably compile a linux version, the biggest thing is figuring out the directory structure of the linux version of the game

fair rampart Feb 12, 2018, 5:41 PM

#

Can't be all that different right?

hollow tree Feb 12, 2018, 5:51 PM

#

@buoyant wasp Basically its the same structure as the windows version.

#

Here the structure of the linux version.

📎 linux_paths.txt

buoyant wasp Feb 12, 2018, 6:01 PM

#

thanks. I'll try and check this tonight (6-8 hours from now). I'll need to go download the linux version and compile against it. If i forget just ping me again.

hollow tree Feb 12, 2018, 6:02 PM

#

Okay. Thank you!

round vapor Feb 12, 2018, 8:26 PM

#

hey, is there a place where i can look up the german translations for the game? half a year ago, the hub town was supposedly named dirtmouth in the german version, but when i looked this month it was changed to mistmund.

fair rampart Feb 12, 2018, 8:27 PM

#

hmm

#

So you wanna help out with the game's translations?

round vapor Feb 12, 2018, 8:38 PM

#

no i just want to read up stuff.
mainly terminology and names.
i could put it to use in a german HK rpg.

young walrus Feb 12, 2018, 8:39 PM

#

didn't a bunch of native german speakers help out with the translation?

round vapor Feb 12, 2018, 8:39 PM

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

got 2x the 2x damage

young walrus Feb 12, 2018, 11:39 PM

#

use the newest API version that sean posted

#

it fixes this issue

copper nacelle Feb 12, 2018, 11:39 PM

#

cool

hollow pier Feb 12, 2018, 11:39 PM

#

do you have double the saves

copper nacelle Feb 12, 2018, 11:39 PM

#

didn't check

solemn rivet Feb 13, 2018, 1:54 AM

#

So, I edited Kerr's original mod installation script

#

it does not support resources (although that can be fixed), but it allows for quick install of multiple mods at once

#

can people test this for me?

#

@pearl sentinel

pearl sentinel Feb 13, 2018, 1:56 AM

Oooh neat

I will take a look at it next time I'm at my pc

if you do not trust the .bat, then, by all means, open it in a text editor first to check it's not malicious

eww btc

what would I even do with so much ~~shit~~

sell it of course

mmm gambling

Maybe it steals your dogecoin instead

do you think there could be a programmatic way to convert non api mods to api mods?

solemn rivet Feb 13, 2018, 2:51 AM

#

ehhhh

#

why?

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 2:52 AM

#

I want lightbringer on mac intenseface

solemn rivet Feb 13, 2018, 2:53 AM

#

oh

#

I thought you meant it the other way around

#

no, there isn't

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 2:53 AM

#

How does normal assembly_CSharp modding owrk

solemn rivet Feb 13, 2018, 2:53 AM

#

because hooks have to be added manually

#

you edit it directly using dnspy

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 2:54 AM

#

Where is all game logic stored? In assembly_csharp?

solemn rivet Feb 13, 2018, 2:54 AM

#

no

#

mostly hero

#

most game logic is stored in FSMs

#

but that's about to change with the next update

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 2:55 AM

#

why is hero logic in assembly_csharp

solemn rivet Feb 13, 2018, 2:55 AM

#

dabright dableft

#

who knows

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 2:55 AM

#

sounds like bad encapsulation

solemn rivet Feb 13, 2018, 2:56 AM

#

it's just bad coding in general

#

lots of leftover stuff

#

lots of stuff that make no sense

#

and most of the logic isn't even in code

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 2:57 AM

#

fsms aren't code?

#

:O

solemn rivet Feb 13, 2018, 2:58 AM

#

I don't know how they're stored tbh

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 2:58 AM

#

are there any hk mod developers on mac

#

I want a good dnspy alternative

#

Jetbrains Rider doesn't work too well for this

solemn rivet Feb 13, 2018, 3:00 AM

#

you could always try and convince 753 to port it to API

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:00 AM

#

does he take btc

#

I can send him a non-drm copy of hollow knight hollowwoke

#

how do I convince him

buoyant obsidian Feb 13, 2018, 3:02 AM

#

porting to api would be a nightmare atm, we'll see how everything works when the game is updated

solemn rivet Feb 13, 2018, 3:02 AM

#

boooo

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:02 AM

#

ok

#

does the api even have the capability for custom assets

#

bc replacing files sux

solemn rivet Feb 13, 2018, 3:03 AM

#

I think so

#

rando uses it

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:03 AM

#

oh right tru

#

sorry I mean replacing existing assets

solemn rivet Feb 13, 2018, 3:04 AM

#

ah... That, I don't know

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:04 AM

#

actually you probably can just not draw the attack and draw the new attack?

solemn rivet Feb 13, 2018, 3:04 AM

#

if anyone, sean and wyza might know

#

or that

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:04 AM

#

oldAttack.notDraw();
newAttack.draw();

solemn rivet Feb 13, 2018, 3:05 AM

#

you'd have to make it skip the vanilla attack

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:05 AM

#

if (goingtocrash) dont();

solemn rivet Feb 13, 2018, 3:05 AM

#

but sure

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:05 AM

#

I love that kind of pseudocode

#

it's hilarious

#

Replacing would be good tho

#

because reskinning hk and enemies and environment

solemn rivet Feb 13, 2018, 3:06 AM

#

yeah

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:06 AM

#

that way custom skins would be easier

solemn rivet Feb 13, 2018, 3:06 AM

#

would also allow for custom updash sprite

#

for blackmoth

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:06 AM

#

oh yea that would be nice

solemn rivet Feb 13, 2018, 3:06 AM

#

which is technically the only thing left to fix

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:06 AM

#

except for dash breaking completely >.<

#

I know it's vanilla

solemn rivet Feb 13, 2018, 3:06 AM

#

heh

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:06 AM

#

fix it anyway intenseface

triple-boot is life

copper nacelle Feb 13, 2018, 3:12 AM

oof

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:12 AM

I tried a bunch

#

On an unrelated note

My friend tried to dual boot kali

His mouse and keyboard stopped working

copper nacelle Feb 13, 2018, 3:12 AM

lmfao

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:12 AM

And the funniest thing is

#

He had 2 EFI partitions

copper nacelle Feb 13, 2018, 3:13 AM

The second one was 50GB

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:13 AM

It was hilarious

#

For sure he messed something up at some point but it was great seeing that

#

So what do you use to look at dlls

copper nacelle Feb 13, 2018, 3:14 AM

#

dnSpy

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:14 AM

#

I bet it's windows

copper nacelle Feb 13, 2018, 3:14 AM

#

on linux dnSpy console

#

which just converts the stuff into a shit load of folders and .cs files

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:15 AM

#

the .dll is made of multiple .cs files?

copper nacelle Feb 13, 2018, 3:16 AM

#

yeah iirc

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:16 AM

#

do you have a dnspy.console build for mac

#

Building things sucks

copper nacelle Feb 13, 2018, 3:16 AM

#

it's just mono

#

so it should work

#

also yeah

#

lots of .cs files

#

📎 unknown.png

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:17 AM

#

/re/

#

How do I even build this

#

I have unity installed

#

That should come with whatever I need

#

I also have Rider

copper nacelle Feb 13, 2018, 3:19 AM

#

build what

#

no building

#

https://github.com/0xd4d/dnSpy/releases/download/v4.5.2/dnSpy.zip

#

download it

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:19 AM

#

C# isn't compiled?

copper nacelle Feb 13, 2018, 3:19 AM

#

it is

#

wait

#

what are you building

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:20 AM

dnspy.console

copper nacelle Feb 13, 2018, 3:20 AM

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:20 AM

#

am on mac

copper nacelle Feb 13, 2018, 3:20 AM

#

dnSpy.Console.exe works on mac w/ mono

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:20 AM

#

oh

#

what's mono intenseface

copper nacelle Feb 13, 2018, 3:20 AM

#

grimm

#

.NET but not windows

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:21 AM

#

you can run .exe with that?

#

if it's .NET?

copper nacelle Feb 13, 2018, 3:21 AM

#

yea

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:21 AM

#

link pls

#

wait it's a compiler

copper nacelle Feb 13, 2018, 3:22 AM

#

do you have ports or brew installed

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:22 AM

#

oh it's on there right

copper nacelle Feb 13, 2018, 3:22 AM

#

you just do mono dnSpy.Console.exe

#

ez

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:22 AM

#

o nice

copper nacelle Feb 13, 2018, 3:23 AM

#

*mono dnSpy.Console.exe (link to Assembly-CSharp.dll)

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:23 AM

#

do I just install mono

copper nacelle Feb 13, 2018, 3:23 AM

#

yea

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:23 AM

#

can I run the gui app?

copper nacelle Feb 13, 2018, 3:24 AM

#

"Console"

#

it gives you a folder full of the decompiled stuff

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:24 AM

#

can I run the gui app with mono

copper nacelle Feb 13, 2018, 3:24 AM

#

no

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:24 AM

#

where does the folder go

copper nacelle Feb 13, 2018, 3:24 AM

#

I think VS might also let you be able to look at Assembly-CSharp.dll

#

in current directory iirc

#

might need to specify it

#

check args

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:24 AM

#

better not do that in ~

copper nacelle Feb 13, 2018, 3:24 AM

#

iirc VS lets you check the dll as well

#

like I can "peek definition" and it'll work

soft rain Feb 13, 2018, 3:25 AM

#

it works for Rider too but not the whole thing

#

just looking at where something is defined

#

got a bunch of errors and empty files

#

lot of missing methods

#

anyway g2g

see you later

it's the best I can do

and even then, it's not entirely mine

I simply iterated on a solution by kerr to install his randomizer mod

buoyant wasp Feb 13, 2018, 7:27 PM

I wish we could just do steam workshop

solemn rivet Feb 13, 2018, 7:27 PM

#

that would certainly be the best possible case

buoyant wasp Feb 13, 2018, 7:29 PM

there is a Google Drive API. I bet someone could take a crack and building a GUI version that could list all the mods, download, unzip, install, etc.

#

sadly, not I. Just don't have much free coding time for HK for the foreseeable future

#

it’d help

young walrus Feb 13, 2018, 7:59 PM

you need dive to get from resting grounds into blue lake anyways

I wanna try hell mod, what does it change on game? Does it have a page about it?

#

It makes nail damage really low

#

makes you take double damage from everything

#

increased health for everyhing iirc

#

and decreased spell damage

#

Hell mod makes nail do half damage
Spells do 1/6 lesser damage
Knight takes 2x damage
Soul vessel is 1/3 its original size
Soul gain is halved
You dont gain soul when your shade is still there
You heal at deep focus speed

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```

solemn rivet Feb 14, 2018, 2:44 PM

@copper nacelle do you have a github for the source code of hell mod? I wanted to take a look at how you implemented something

digital axle Feb 14, 2018, 2:53 PM

#

what are the steel sooul mod's features

exotic venture Feb 14, 2018, 2:53 PM

#

there... there is no steel soul mod

solemn rivet Feb 14, 2018, 2:57 PM

#

maybe he meant glass soul?

fair rampart Feb 14, 2018, 2:57 PM

#

Glass soul is 1hit death

#

and nail damage = nail level + amount of masks -5

#

the -5 is cuz of the base amount of masks

solemn rivet Feb 14, 2018, 3:03 PM

#

since no one found any issues with it, I'm gonna assume my installation wizard works fine hollowface

fair rampart Feb 14, 2018, 3:12 PM

is there any guide on how to install?

found some stuff on pin msgs

now it also installs the API

#

as a computer scientist I have consience of what a .exe and .bat can do

solemn rivet Feb 14, 2018, 3:22 PM

Wyza had suggested something a lot more user friendly, which would list all mods on the gdrive and automatically download and install whichever ones you chose

"-halp, install mods is hard
-did you download API?
-what's API?
-you put it in the same folder as the game's executable
-how I do dat
-you just drag and drop
-halp it broke my game
-is it beside the exe?
-no
-put it there then
-k it works, thanks!"

Make sure your Hollow Knight version is up to date
Download all the mods you need from the Google Drive. You need the Modding API first and foremost, together with the API mod of your choosing (also found there). MAKE SURE YOU DOWNLOAD FOR THE CURRENT VERSION OF THE GAME WHEN YOU DOWNLOAD THE MODS. (current version: 1.3.1.5)
Locate your Hollow Knight data folder (Usually found in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight
Merge the folders from the download (hollow_knight_Data) with the mods you just downloaded. A simple drag and drop should work, the folder names just have to match up.
Make sure \Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\Mods exists and has the mod .dll of the mod you want to download. If not, place it in there. It should just be there as a .dll and not as a folder.
Boot up the game and see if in the top left corner, mod information is displayed (just a name and a version number). If not, verify game integrity (Right-click on the game on Steam, click Properties, go to the Local Files tab and press Verify integrity of game files.) and install the Modding API again as shown in Step 3.

Enjoy your modded Hollow Knight experience!

could you pin that, Mystery? Also, I still think the wizard might be helpful

exotic venture Feb 14, 2018, 3:37 PM

#

sure, I'll pin that

#

can you add a message to the wizard, how it works (basic functions etc) and attach the file to it so it's, uh, "idiotproof"

solemn rivet Feb 14, 2018, 3:39 PM

I thought the labels were pretty idiotproof

solemn rivet Feb 14, 2018, 4:06 PM

#

also, show I add an option to load resources?

pearl sentinel Feb 14, 2018, 4:06 PM

#

i think so, because stuff like randomizer requires a folder of pngs to be put in a different place

#

(if i'm remembering correctly)

#

if you have the source somewhere i can see about adding something like an auto-search for stuff and maybe a couple other tweaks

fair rampart Feb 14, 2018, 4:10 PM

#

@exotic venture Why do I have to download api and merge the files if I have to change on the hk folder anyway?

pearl sentinel Feb 14, 2018, 4:11 PM

#

@buoyant wasp would it be possible to have a constant download address for the current version of the modding api that an installer could version check/download from?

young walrus Feb 14, 2018, 4:12 PM

#

the folders are empty except for 1 file. the folder structure is there so it gets put in the right spot

#

the API replaces the csharp file

#

other mod files simply add a .dll

proceed heros?

#

📎 unknown.png

#

2x damage

#

ok proceed

pearl sentinel Feb 14, 2018, 4:14 PM

#

actually @solemn rivet don't add a "resources path" button or anything. if you want to add resource support, maybe have it so that mods can optionally provide something like a manifest file. like, if the mod has one, then it describes where to copy things to, so do copy things to those spots, else just install like normal

#

that would also allow for easy uninstallation of the mod

solemn rivet Feb 14, 2018, 4:16 PM

#

that's what I was thinking

#

besides, each mod pulls stuff from different places

#

like, your rando seems to search for resources inside /Mods/ while sean's rando searches for resources in the Hollow Knight folder

pearl sentinel Feb 14, 2018, 4:17 PM

#

yep

#

and if i wanted my mod to create some files in appdata too, i could add them to the manifest for easy removal afterward

solemn rivet Feb 14, 2018, 4:19 PM

no worries

I like where this is going tho

hopefully we can make something that can directly download and install mods

#

also, it's not hard to modify it in order to allow it to enable/disable installed mods

buoyant wasp Feb 14, 2018, 4:29 PM

#

as far as "constant link" goes

exotic venture Feb 14, 2018, 4:29 PM

#

@solemn rivet just need a simple description so whoever reads it gets what it is in one go... then i'll link it

buoyant wasp Feb 14, 2018, 4:29 PM

#

the most current version of the API for a given release of HK remains the same once it's been uploaded

#

like we don't delete and recreate the file, we just upload a new version of it

#

so the link for 1.2.2.1 will always be the same (assuming google drive doesn't change it for some stupid reason)

solemn rivet Feb 14, 2018, 4:34 PM

#

was that too complicated, Mystery?

#

I can't make it simpler than that

-- This application trivializes the already trivial installation method of API mods for the game.

-- Use the right checkboxes to install/uninstall mods, and the left checkboxes to enable/disable installed mods.

-- When installing a mod which has a dependency on other mods, the installer should ask to also install those dependencies. Please be aware that if you choose to not do so, the mod might not work and the game might crash.

@buoyant wasp any tips on downloading the mods from Google drive? I got a client ID and secret generated, can authenticate and access my app's google drive; not sure how to get access to the shared one through the api though. I am able to get the raw response from a Web request, but anything I pull out of there would be hacky and not a good solution.

buoyant wasp Feb 15, 2018, 9:57 PM

#

I don't have any direct experience with the GDrive API, I only knew it existed and there was some documentation on getting/putting files. Made an assumption that it would provide some mechanism to access public folders, perhaps a flawed one(?).

pearl sentinel Feb 15, 2018, 9:59 PM

#

It looks like it should be possible, but definitely not something I can find explained on any search results. They all seem to assume what you're accessing is on your or your apps google drive

#

I'll keep poking at it

solemn rivet Feb 15, 2018, 10:31 PM

When I get home I'll send you my solution to look only into a specific folder

But it still requires login

#

the glass soul file is the same as modding api file

#

there is not mod.dll on glass soul

#

so I just ignore api? no files on mod folder tho

solemn rivet Feb 16, 2018, 1:37 AM

#

glass soul is not API iirc

#

so it's like Lightbringer

#

you cannot play it with API

fair rampart Feb 16, 2018, 1:38 AM

#

just merge the files then

#

thx

solemn rivet Feb 16, 2018, 1:39 AM

#

yeah... But that'll remove the API

woeful plaza Feb 16, 2018, 4:23 AM

#

Ah... The link for the mod installer github page is broken

#

by the way

hollow tree Feb 16, 2018, 8:13 AM

#

@buoyant wasp eveaLurk I really don't want to bother you. I'm just reminding you because you said so. If you can't work on the Mod API for reasons right now, please tell me so and I'll ask in a month again or some time later. 🤐

copper nacelle Feb 16, 2018, 10:53 AM

#

I can probably do it if you want

#

later today

#

I've got HK on my Linux partition

solemn rivet Feb 16, 2018, 2:03 PM

#

I can also try it later today if I have the time

gusty sparrow Feb 16, 2018, 2:12 PM

#

ok so i asked this like a week ago and never really got a straight answer, is there a list of charms in lightbringer and their effects?

solemn rivet Feb 16, 2018, 2:51 PM

#

no

#

but you can download a 106% save file and load it into lightbringer to find out by yourself

#

but, then again, that's against the purpose of the mod... But you do you

gusty sparrow Feb 16, 2018, 2:55 PM

#

i spent a fair handful on time break which seems 99% useless and i'd rather not repeat that fiasco

solemn rivet Feb 16, 2018, 3:00 PM

#

I mean, we all spent a lot of time levelling up Grimmchild in CP2 and it turned out to be useless too

#

but I don't see anyone complaining

gusty sparrow Feb 16, 2018, 3:07 PM

#

eh fair

#

but then that's a matter of doing grimm troupe and fighting nkg, which, while a letdown, is still fun in the moment. i'd argue grinding geo to purchase a cool charm only to find it terrible is more dissappointing, to some people at least

solemn rivet Feb 16, 2018, 3:34 PM

#

but iirc it's not entirely useless

#

753 spent a lot of time making it work better for speedrunners

#

unless I'm thinking of a different charm

buoyant obsidian Feb 16, 2018, 3:41 PM

#

Yeah it's one of my favorite charms

gusty sparrow Feb 16, 2018, 11:43 PM

it's time crunch thing

pearl sentinel Feb 17, 2018, 12:08 AM

#

note that you can't uninstall any of the mods yet, so backup anything you're worried about being over-written (i also haven't programmed in backup up files yet)

#

but so far i've tested each one that i included in there and they all install fine

#

after loading it should show this screen

#

https://puu.sh/zpmPo/6553ea9e1c.png

#

then just check w/e you want it to download and install and hit update

solemn rivet Feb 17, 2018, 12:10 AM

#

speaking of which

#

did anyone test my manager?

#

are you downloading them by direct link reference?

pearl sentinel Feb 17, 2018, 12:11 AM

#

yeah

solemn rivet Feb 17, 2018, 12:11 AM

#

nice

pearl sentinel Feb 17, 2018, 12:12 AM

i just need to add the rest in the xml

solemn rivet Feb 17, 2018, 12:12 AM

still loading

pearl sentinel Feb 17, 2018, 12:12 AM

#

yeah, please give me an idea how long the loading takes, my pc is faster

solemn rivet Feb 17, 2018, 12:14 AM

#

I think my pc is shit

#

still loading

pearl sentinel Feb 17, 2018, 12:14 AM

#

:/

#

well, i guess i know a couple optimizations i need to do

#

thanks for trying tho

#

i'll fix that up tomorrow probably

solemn rivet Feb 17, 2018, 12:24 AM

#

I closed it and reopened

#

and it loaded instantly

#

it says that game path is not set

#

also, can people try out this new version? If it's stable enough, I'll upload it

I opened it up before I had to go and it seemed to work, but when I have more than 30 seconds to try it out I'll let you know

pearl sentinel Feb 17, 2018, 1:51 AM

#

ok, trying it out and i noticed that if the path is large then this happens

#

https://puu.sh/zpq4M/bcac618220.png

but it works

how do you use powershell for stuff

#

wait nvm got bash on windows

exotic venture Feb 17, 2018, 1:54 AM

#

powershell is cmd on steroids

copper nacelle Feb 17, 2018, 1:55 AM

#

ik that but it's way more objecty

exotic venture Feb 17, 2018, 1:55 AM

#

and it still sucks because of that

#

just use bash

copper nacelle Feb 17, 2018, 1:55 AM

#

ofc

#

wait no

#

z s h

#

or ban

exotic venture Feb 17, 2018, 1:58 AM

well whatevs i guess that's just preference

copper nacelle Feb 17, 2018, 1:58 AM

#

r e

exotic venture Feb 17, 2018, 1:58 AM

#

but don't use powershell

#

it works

copper nacelle Feb 17, 2018, 1:58 AM

#

grml-zsh-config

exotic venture Feb 17, 2018, 1:58 AM

#

it can do the things you want it to do

copper nacelle Feb 17, 2018, 1:58 AM

#

also found it, put HyperLightDrifter in Jotun

exotic venture Feb 17, 2018, 1:58 AM

#

but other than that please don't use it

copper nacelle Feb 17, 2018, 1:58 AM

#

but powershell has some neat stuff, doesn't it?

#

like still worse than bash ofc

#

*any shell

#

if ($those -eq $these)
{
  #commands
}

#

why

#

you were right I give up

exotic venture Feb 17, 2018, 2:00 AM

@solemn rivet do I select Hollow Knight or hollow_knight_data

do you have a Disable folder btw?

copper nacelle Feb 17, 2018, 2:08 AM

no

but it's not called Disabled

copper nacelle Feb 17, 2018, 2:14 AM

#

ik this would probably be somewhat painful at the least but what would be neat

#

is if you could sort your mods by folder and then when you enable it it would symlink them

#

maybe i'll do that and pull request it

spare matrix Feb 17, 2018, 2:15 AM

#

how do you make the mod installer work?

copper nacelle Feb 17, 2018, 2:15 AM

#

download it

#

download the mods you want

#

api if needed

#

select

feel happy

where do you put it?

copper nacelle Feb 17, 2018, 2:16 AM

you run it

solemn rivet Feb 17, 2018, 2:16 AM

just a sec

copper nacelle Feb 17, 2018, 2:16 AM

and it prompts you for stuff if needed

solemn rivet Feb 17, 2018, 2:17 AM

📎 ModInstaller.exe

copper nacelle Feb 17, 2018, 2:17 AM

#

save the installer path

solemn rivet Feb 17, 2018, 2:17 AM

text for API is still ugly, but at least it doesn't break if it doesn't find a "Disabled" folder

copper nacelle Feb 17, 2018, 2:17 AM

#

reselecting every time makes me want to end myself

#

more than usual

solemn rivet Feb 17, 2018, 2:17 AM

wut

#

it should be saving

copper nacelle Feb 17, 2018, 2:17 AM

AHH

I hit cancel and

it set the path to nothing

also i can't change it

copper nacelle Feb 17, 2018, 2:18 AM
