copper nacelle
#

@floral furnace auto-aim bullets thank

fair rampart
#

I only just realized the infinite Grimm mod makes the fight infinite, not let you fight him infinite times with scaling difficulty lol

compact sedge
#

we could add autoaim but I want ttacco to approve anything bfore I do it.

cunning lagoon
#

really makes you fuckin think

compact sedge
#

refighting grimm infinite times would be less interesting imo

cunning lagoon
#

yeah

copper nacelle
#

int compare is a terrible fsm action

fair rampart
#

True

cunning lagoon
slow fable

i eventually just did this

hollow pier

platypus has got a ironsight, but it's shitty implemented. Map is not huge so I wouldn't e

compact sedge
#

int compare is like the thing in TIS-100 but in a high level language

fair rampart
#

I was thinking this because of how Grimm child upgrades phrases it in it's setting

Equus is a genus of mammals in the family Equidae, which includes horses, donkeys, and zebras. Within Equidae, Equus is the only recognized extant genus, comprising seven living species. The term equine refers to any member of this genus, including horses.

Oh

compact sedge

you assholes have basically hacked the pentagon and discovered new quantum particles by the time you got out of your mother's wombs, meanwhile I can't think of a damn good thing I did 5 years ago when I was a sophomore in highschool.

cunning lagoon
dusky lion

implying I did something good

hazy sentinel
#

u finished sophomore year in high school @compact sedge

dusky lion
#

cunning lagoon
#

compact sedge
#

5 years ago I was starting sophomore year

copper nacelle
#

sophomore is 2nd year

compact sedge
#

that's hardly an accomplishment

dusky lion
#

You didn't die of sudden infantile death

#

Pretty good if you ask me

compact sedge

today i tried writing :zot on a different server

poor guy didnt stand a chance

copper nacelle
#

nice

vagrant leaf
#

wtf why do new mods appear on the installer every time i look

#

tf is darkness

copper nacelle
#

dark mod

#

kdt's

vagrant leaf
#

i see

copper nacelle
#

do you not want new mods

#

wtf

vagrant leaf
#

no i do

#

also time to wait 3 days at most for somebody to beat pantheon 5 all bindings with darkroom

copper nacelle
cunning lagoon
#

very good joke

#

imo

#

did anyone end up beating vanilla rad on darkmod

#

i remember someone mentioning that

copper nacelle
#

@leaden hedge did u

leaden hedge
#

no

#

its aids

cunning lagoon
hollow pier
#

how can you not beat it after doing absrad lol

cunning lagoon
#

yeah just dodge the attackslol

copper nacelle
#

absrad dark mod

copper nacelle
#

is this death's gambit

leaden hedge
#

but harderer to dogderer

copper nacelle
#

yes

solemn rivet
#

no, this is patrick

cunning lagoon
copper nacelle
leaden hedge
#

should I do horizontal swaps too 🤔

#

also the way I have it set up lets me move the offsets whenever

hollow pier
#

make it flash white and black

#

no hurtbox

#

just blinds you

compact sedge
#

nah that would be too fair

leaden hedge
#

i only make fair mechanics

solemn rivet
#

make it random. One of the beam has no contact damage, but there's no way to tell which one

#

and they all kill in one hit

copper nacelle
cunning lagoon
#

is this blessed or cursed

#

i can't tell anymore

copper nacelle
#

both

trim totem
#

blursed

solemn rivet
#

clessed?

trim totem
#

no

ember bloom
#

Oh no

#

Domain of mods and memes

exotic venture
#

both go tbh

#

modders are all shitposters so it's only natural

floral furnace
#

@compact sedge probably make the auto aim into a charm upgrade

#

~~also is it bad that thinking that i have to start using distance formula or whatever math shit just to fire at the enemies position ~~

compact sedge
#

do you want autoaim as a feature because there's some awesome enemy position detection code in grimmchild, which I later added to redwing because ofc I effing did.

Also, semi related question but do you want bullets that curve towards enemies?

floral furnace
#

originally i was SLIGHTLY deviating to some sort of realism but, that would be fucking boring so why the hell not?

#

i mean its a fucking game about insects how would adding guns even add some degree of realism

compact sedge
#

wtf you want realism in your gun mod?

floral furnace
#

also ive been thinking about sean's suggestion about the gun use for mobility, and i want to add that as well

naive heart
#

flying flukemarms from the flukenest charm, that auto aim in on enemies.

#

That sounds more logical.

floral furnace
#

well that was sort of part of the joke, i mean the fact that its a game about insects but theres realistic guns in it

compact sedge
#

ok but tbh being propelled upwards by bullets >>>> pogoing with nails

floral furnace
#

like its so fucking dumb, hence thats somewhat why i wanted to add it as well /shrug

compact sedge
#

also uh balance wise I think curved bullets shouldn't be added to normal bullets themselves but to the fireball spell so that it costs soul to use.

floral furnace
#

oh yeah i was thinking of doing something like quake or half life, charging now fires a big ass bullet that propels you farther only thing it needs is bunny hopping

#

yeah that makes sense angle

#

also wdym you added it in redwing for grimm child? oh wait you just mean you added the grimmchild function INTO the regular redwing spells

#

misread that

compact sedge
#

yeah. it's a gud function.

hollow pier
#

is there any way to gain height

rain cedar
#

Jump

hollow pier
#

oh wait

ember raft
#

dash off of the wall rather than the floor

hollow pier
#

ln + mop maybe

ember raft
#

or is that the area where there is no wall

hollow pier
#

this tunnel is so garbage can i not find a skip

solemn rivet
#

TTacco play some iconoclasts and see how they handle the gun mechanics there imo

rain cedar
#

Wow nice gradow is doing my job for me

solemn rivet
#

Don't complain if it's a shitty job when it's done then

turbid arch
#

so, i recently beat the original game and decided to install some mods. What are some recommended mods to begin with? is the Modinstaller compilation on moddb safe to use?

compact sedge
#

I mean it's as safe as the modinstaller on the website

#

since it's made and uploaded by the same person

solemn rivet
#

It's made by us, so it's as safe as we are

turbid arch
#

oh, as said first time im venturing into Hollow Knight modding.

#

that does not tell me much.

#

but at least im a little less paranoid.

solemn rivet
#

And I always wear protection

#

So that's very safe

turbid arch
#

so my computer won't get std's, thats good to know.

compact sedge
#

and I never have sex so ya know.

solemn rivet
#

See? That's like 101% safe

floral furnace
#

but why play iconoclast when you can just watch it

#

also angle pls

compact sedge
#

hey ladies, do you want a complete nerd with zero experience under the covers? yeah didn't think so.

solemn rivet
#

Kutku you can think of it like this

#

the installer is open source

#

you can find its source on my github

#

and if you don' trust that the version online is simply what's in the code, well, you have the option to simply compile it yourself

turbid arch
#

yah, i found the github version but wasn't sure that it was the same as on moddb. and got kind of paranoid when the installer simple extracted a file named lol.exe

compact sedge
#

lol.exe is actually a copy of modinstaller which downloads au.exe which is the auto updater

solemn rivet
#

yeah, I should probably rename that, shouldn't I?

#

it gets auto-deleted when you run the installer tho

compact sedge
#

why does it need to make a copy of itself tho that's what I don't get

solemn rivet
#

so it shouldn't be a problem

#

it doesn't, AA

#

windows is shit

#

so you can't alter a program while it's running

compact sedge
#

also it didn't delete itself on linux

solemn rivet
#

so here's how it works:

#

installer downloads AU and closes itself. AU downloads lol and replaces the installer with it (and closes itself). Installer deletes the AU.

compact sedge
#

why does lol.exe need to exist

#

if you can just:
run AU
close modinstaller
delete modinstaller
download new modinstaller
run new modinstaller

why does lol.exe need to come into play

solemn rivet
#

brb, gotta make some changes to code

compact sedge
#

sorry

#

:radstress:

solemn rivet
#

nah, ty m8

solemn rivet
#

good thing is, au is hosted on github

#

so I don't need to edit xmls and all that jazz

#

56 send me one of your ancient installer versions

#

like, not that ancient

#

one that has update features

cunning lagoon
solemn rivet
#

that reminds me

#

I have to get back on working on blackmoth

#

@turbid arch you asked about mods. What kind of mods would you like? I can't make random recommendations, but if you're looking for something specific...

turbid arch
#

i guess something to spice up the gameplay. alternate playstyles or something like that.

solemn rivet
#

ok

#

in that category we have

#

Lightbringer, which you probably know of

#

Blackmoth

#

Redwing

turbid arch
#

seen it, thought it was outdated.

solemn rivet
#

Bonfire

#

that basically alters the Knight and its properties, but not much else

turbid arch
#

Any essential/quality of life mods?

solemn rivet
#

Randomizer(2) and Enemy rando alters the environment, but don't do anything to the knight

#

and Chaos mod is meme

turbid arch
#

ooh randomizer sounds fun.

solemn rivet
#

well, there's qol mod

turbid arch
#

il commit these to memory (write them down)

solemn rivet
#

but it's not that useful for non-speedrunners

#

it allows for menu-dropping and (some) cutscene skipping

#

56 is working on skipping all cutscenes

floral furnace
#

wdym not that useful to non speedrunners, it shuts salubra up at full soul so thats pretty much worth it on its own /s

solemn rivet
#

there's also that

#

if you want to make your life hell, there's Hell mod and Darkness mod

#

if you want some spiced up boss fights theres Infinite Grimm, Mantis Gods and Lost Kid Lord

#

oh yeah, speaking of QOL mods

cunning lagoon
solemn rivet
#

there's also Fast text (self explanatory) and enemyhpbars, which adds hp bars to every enemy (bosses included)

floral furnace
#

I thought youve gotten past the "never go to the subreddit" rule already

cunning lagoon
#

i dont have the self control to not go there

#

im a weak man

solemn rivet
#

dlk needs his daily fix of people being stupid and petty and stupidly petty

turbid arch
#

isn't that the internet in general?

#

you don't need reddit for that.

#

Also thank you for the recommendations.

solemn rivet
#

np

#

also, yeah, that's the internet

#

but here in the discord is the land of fantasies

#

no one hates anyone

#

we're all friends and love each other

#

and we're all nice to each other

#

except firzen

turbid arch
#

that in itself makes me somewhat scared.

solemn rivet
#

don't be

#

join us

#

joooooin usssss

turbid arch
#

we will see.

solemn rivet
#

k

#

Mystery is already one of us

exotic venture
#

are we all nice to each other though

#

wait what i don't even have a modder role

#

i didn't sign up for this

solemn rivet
#

but you're a modder in your heart

compact sedge
#

Mys is more of a modder than me.

solemn rivet
#

tbf AA isn't a modder and he's literally made more for the modding community than I have

compact sedge
#

smh you inspired me tho gradow so take that for what it's worth

#

you and NKG being such a damn good boss

solemn rivet
#

so

#

I am a boss now?

cunning lagoon
compact sedge
#

no you and NKG. it's a boss where you fight two enemies at once

cunning lagoon
#

Infinite Nightmare God Gradow

solemn rivet
#

Redwing CP2 new boss revealed!

compact sedge
#

one who can dash around everywhere and the other a modder.

solemn rivet
#

make me like a hacker enemy that changes reality

#

or rather

#

oh boi, hear me out

#

make redwing's final boss be

#

the blackmoth

compact sedge
#

woah

solemn rivet
#

and it uses grubbers and stuff

compact sedge
#

when it uses its grubberfly ability you can only hit it with fireballs.

solemn rivet
#

yeah! Because you need to dispel the darkness or some shit

copper nacelle
#

dispell the darkness with shade soul

#

big woke

solemn rivet
#

and hitting it with shade spells heals it

copper nacelle
solemn rivet
#

also shade dash/sharp shadow

#

that's actually be pretty cool

#

and I could add a redwing final boss in blackmoth

#

so we'd be like Pokemon

compact sedge
#

I have 0 idea how to make bosses in mods or I would.

hollow pier
#

so how do you gain height

cunning lagoon
#

jump

compact sedge
#

jumping?

copper nacelle
#

updash

hollow pier
#

jump dj pogo

#

is that it

solemn rivet
#

as soon as I'm happy with blackmoth, I'm gonna dismantle KDT's fennel and use the heck out of it

hollow pier
#

there's nothing else

cunning lagoon
#

yeah if ou are trying to do the tunnel thing

exotic venture
#

i think kdt managed to import a boss from a different game to hollow knight

#

that route may work out

cunning lagoon
#

just pogo at the peak height of your jump and at the end of the saw cycle

copper nacelle
#

he re-made the boss to be tbh

cunning lagoon
#

but im fairly sure its not possible

#

i tried for a while

solemn rivet
#

yeah, that's what I mean, Mys

#

he gave me the code for it

hollow pier
#

is there like some dash into dj meme

solemn rivet
#

well, in blackmoth, if you updash you can gain momentum and go flying

#

so maybe, ptkyr?

compact sedge
#

you gotta dash into a record table

hollow pier
#

you can't even jump high enough to pogo off the saw at max

#

i guess double pogo with qs

exotic venture
#

oh aight

hollow pier
#

this tunnel is the worst part of pop

cunning lagoon
#

why is the pop actually well made PepeHands

exotic venture
#

the tunnel is hell

copper nacelle
#

:pepehands: global when

exotic venture
#

7 hours of pure hell

hollow pier
#

feels like it's slow no matter what you do there

cunning lagoon
#

you can dash straight to the second saw with sharp shadow

#

and you dont have to djump

#

its p fast

hollow pier
#

yeah that's the only fast thing

cunning lagoon
#

but skipping it would be soo good

hollow pier
#

do you like pogo or wj

#

just feels bad

cunning lagoon
#

on the alternating saws?

hollow pier
#

yeah i pogo

cunning lagoon
#

i pogo the left saw, and wj from the left wall to the right

#

i think pogoing the left saw then pogoing the right saw might be faster

hollow pier
#

massive timesave if the wall was a bit lower

cunning lagoon
#

yeah

#

god damn it tc

#

let us break your content

compact sedge
#

and also TC sorta animates the soul bar and idk how they do that..

hollow pier
#

make it lava

compact sedge
hollow pier
#

good

compact sedge
#

this looks actually awful idk how to do this

hollow pier
#

shade it

exotic venture
#

stop following ptkyr's orders because they're awful as usual

#

you could maybe do with assets from in game

hollow pier
#

i still think it needs shading

floral furnace
#

steal the regular soul bar but resprite it

exotic venture
#

^ that's the easiest one

compact sedge
#

that's well not exactly what I'm doing but sorta what I'm doing in essence

#

I looked up how to make cracks in krita and... apparently people pirate this free drawing program.

#

but why?

rain cedar
#

Drawing instead of procedural generation lol

compact sedge
floral furnace
#

needs more orange ngl

young walrus
#

looks like a red button

exotic venture
#

idk i think the lava doesn't really fit for what you're going for

young walrus
exotic venture
#

since you're using fiery spells you want some sort of fuel right

young walrus
#

use a lighter fluid texture

#

so.... a clear liquid

exotic venture
#

i was rather thinking go full fuckin metal and use actual infection as your fuel

floral furnace
#

the soul bar has that kind of... glowy part of it

exotic venture
#

set the place ablaze

hollow pier
#

is that a pizza mick

compact sedge
#

now it looks like a pizza

#

wait mys has a point

#

hold on

floral furnace
#

this is your chance to promote and shill sunny d tbh

copper nacelle
#

but orange

cunning lagoon
#

ah yes

#

give the pizza eyes

hollow pier
#

sentient pizza

floral furnace
#

it all makes sense, those arent sawblades in WP, those are pizza cutters

compact sedge
#

so uh where are the infection blobs in the texture dump

copper nacelle
cunning lagoon
#

wut

#

not once did i bump into the ceiling in my runs

young walrus
#

now this is a pizza

exotic venture
#

why did you put cheese under the sauce

copper nacelle
#

cause sauce > cheese

young walrus
#

chicago style deep dish

exotic venture
#

the cheese is the best part what are you talking about

floral furnace
#

not if you add pineapples on it 😎

hazy sentinel
#

the onion's the best part

young walrus
exotic venture
#

oh

#

i see

#

ignore the saliva i'm just admiring this pizza

hazy sentinel
#

oic

young walrus
#

I haven't had a chicago deep dish for a long time

#

there's so much cheese under there. Kreygasm

compact sedge
#

hopefully better than these tho

I'm never gonna be let into the elite HK artists guild discord server at this rate.

question if you make a go that you want to instantiate that has physics on it, do you just add a physics2d or whatever component or

leaden hedge
#

no

wow he's done it

hollow pier
#

wow

buoyant obsidian
#

amazing

#

who needs discord nitro when you can just upload pictures

floral furnace
#

youre my hero 56 i respect you so much great work

hollow pier
copper nacelle
buoyant obsidian
#

I'm DMCAing you

copper nacelle
solemn rivet
#

so, I'm trying to get how properties work

young walrus
#

so.... there's this land, right?

#

and you can buy it

#

and then you own that land

#

and that land, is then your property

solemn rivet
#

if I start a property as private GameObject lol {get; set;} and then do, somewhere random in code lol = HeroController.instance does it get a reference to HC or a pointer to it?

young walrus
#

and you can own multiple lots of land like this

solemn rivet
#

ooooh

young walrus
#

and if you do, you have multiple properties

solemn rivet
#

so like

young walrus
#

no

solemn rivet
#

can I own people too Mick?

copper nacelle
#

get/set have an auto backing field

fair rampart
#

just so everyone knows florence will be knocking out my power so any issues with exaltation will have to wait til next week

solemn rivet
#

and if I can't own people

copper nacelle
solemn rivet
#

can I at least pwn them?

copper nacelle
#

it's like

#
private GameObject lol {get => _lol; set => _lol = value;}
solemn rivet
#

well, yeah

copper nacelle
#

should be a ref

#

you could do

#
private GameObject lol { get => HeroController.instance; }```
solemn rivet
#

how is that different from what I'm doing tho?

#

I mean, sure, it's not getting it on construct

#

but I don't want it to get it on construct because HC is null

#

I need for it to not be null

#
IEnumerator ConfigureHero()
{
    while (HeroController.instance == null)
        yield return new WaitForEndOfFrame();
    
    _hc = HeroController.instance;
    //more bad code
}```
copper nacelle
#

that should be the same to be tbh

solemn rivet
#

yeah, I figured

copper nacelle
#

unless herocontroller.instance dies

#

and then comes back to life with a new instance

solemn rivet
#

so if I do _hc.someBool = true; will it be the same as HeroController.instance.someBool = true;?

#

yeah, I have that issue, 56

#

but that's easy to fix

copper nacelle
#

ye it should be while _hc is a ref to HeroController.instance

solemn rivet
#

rn blackmoth only works on the first save you load, and if you s&q, you need ro relaunch the game for it to work

#

ok, nice!

#

ty

copper nacelle
#

yw

solemn rivet
#

is there a hook for save and quit/return to menu?

#

AA would know

compact sedge
#

I make all my mod components gameobjects on the GameManager

#

and they get destroyed by saving and quitting

#

so the hook is OnDestroy

solemn rivet
#

huh

compact sedge
#

if you wanna move your mod from a Mod to a MonoBehavior I have some simple code for doing that

solemn rivet
#

I think I can figure that out

compact sedge
solemn rivet
#

thanks for the tip!

#

oh, ty!

solemn rivet
#

Hey, is there any way I can add a text input on the game's interface a la randomizer?

#

I want to implement a runtime animation player for debugging purposes

#

I know how to do that second part

#

But I need the user to be able to input the clip name

#

Or select it from a list

#

That could also work

compact sedge
#

InputField is what randomizer uses

solemn rivet
#

I think I like the list thing more tbh, and I could add the inputfield for filtering the list

#

Because you don't always know the name of the clip you're looking for

#

Ty AA, I'll take a look when I'm back home

#

But would that be of any use to anyone else?

#

Animation and sounds

#

Possibly even enabling/disabling meshrenderers

compact sedge
#

idk depends on how much more/less work it is for me to do that than create a simple gameobject with a simple component that animates it

#

sounds wouldn't be that useful since you can play them on the herocontroller at any time.

solemn rivet
#

I mean, I plan on using it to redo the whole superdash fsm in code

#

So I need the anims and sounds

#

But fsm viewers are somewhat unreliable

#

For many reasons, including their usage of fsmgameobjects

#

So it would be nice to simply be able to play an animation on command

compact sedge
#

yeah the animations one would be useful but I'd have no idea where to start writing that kinda code.

leaden hedge
#
foreach(Clip c in tk2dSpriteAnimator.Library.clips){
    Debug.Log(c.name);
}
tk2dSpriteAnimator.Play("name");

is how animations are played via tk2d

#

tk2dSpriteAnimator is a component

#

if it uses unities animator you're SoL afaik

plucky fog
#

alright I legit need to hug whoever made Exaltation mod

#

thank you

young walrus
#

you can hug void?

nimble lake
#

Is there a mod that saves Tiso, Cloth and Maya?

cunning lagoon
exotic venture
#

yes it's called Suck It Up and Move On

nimble lake
#

I WILL NOT.

fossil oxide
exotic venture
#

anyways the way you can do it is

nimble lake
#

Or maybe at least save edit to do that

compact sedge
#

Maya?

exotic venture
#
  1. Cloth can be saved by not rescuing her in Ancient Basin in which case she will be in Dirtmouth, unable to face her fears and live unfulfilled
  2. Tiso cannot be saved, sorry.
  3. "Maya" can only be saved if you beat the Pantheon of Hallownest, since THK also survived his infection so that is the most likely way.
#

myla

#

lmao

#

i forgot

compact sedge
#

oh, the amazing infintite myla mod makes her unkillable

nimble lake
#

same

exotic venture
#

sorry i don't resort to black magic

compact sedge
#

but the only way you are stopping her from being infected is with some speedrun strats to skip a few key items that infect her.

exotic venture
#

all you are willing to perform is necromancy

compact sedge
#

also you can only get the first ending this way

nimble lake
#

Isn't there a way to save Cloth and she'll end up sleeping in Dirtmouth?

young walrus
#

that's bretta

compact sedge
#

no that's worse

exotic venture
#

nope!

#

you can even dreamnail her and you can see she still regrets not getting her redemption

#

so left or right, she either dies fulfilling her promise, or she dies in vain because she is too scared

#

depends on whatever your sanity can deal with

nimble lake
#

I actually don't remember what I did

cunning lagoon
#

just kill them all lol

nimble lake
#

no.

compact sedge
#

in all seriousness... the vanilla game needed a few more bug reports like this one tho

nimble lake
#

Where

#

I've never seen Hornet infecter

compact sedge
#

hornet being infected will only make sense if hornet in the hornet DLC works with redwing which... yeah no that's not happening

#

redwing's a story about the knight

nimble lake
#

What is redwing

compact sedge
#

what is this channel?

nimble lake
#

modding

compact sedge
#

well you answered your own question.

nimble lake
#

But what is this mod

compact sedge
#

uhhhh

#

it's complicated

exotic venture
#

who says it has to be infection that's good

#

instead, you could treat it like the Seer

#

like, everyone gets freed from darkness and remembers, and therefore ascends

#

so IMO the ending is wrong

compact sedge
#

infection isn't good

#

Redwing is the dreams of an infected vessel.

#

and your goal is to break that infection

copper nacelle
#

wow spoiled

exotic venture
#

then interpret it differently

#

instead of breaking the infection you can come to terms with it

#

of course you die, but the pain fades away and the rest, well, that's up to imagination

compact sedge
#

there's lots of endings in redwing and there's gonna be more coming soon â„¢ but it's hard to work on endings when you have so much free time and nothing to procrastinate. it's much easier to make them when you can mod as an excuse to not do homework

#

which will be me in 2 weeks

exotic venture
compact sedge
#

wut it's true

exotic venture
#

well all right

#

if you really wanna make lore for your mod it's good to think about how you want to interpret this ailment

#

you could change the main dialogue sure but it would be fun to have your own twist to it

#

is it a blessing or a curse to be infected? what can be gained for it? is there a link with the higher being that created it?

compact sedge
#

I have an interpretation of it which is revealed to some extent through the dialogue but which will become more clear as I work on GM dialogue since GM takes place within the dream of the godseeker.

#

idk that I wanna say too much because this isn't #hk-lore (lul)

exotic venture
#

w/e modders and speedrunners asleep post lore

copper nacelle
#

u

compact sedge
#

More or less after the PK has established himself. The radiance starts appearing in bugs' dreams, ya know same as before. And essentially offering them the unity they had before- this isn't the infection but something more akin to what is alluded to by the big caterpillar- this I refer to as the Dream. The PK sees this as an attack on his kingdom and sets into motion the plan to create a vessel to contain these thoughts and the radiance. He gets his vessel, who fights her and consumes her.

But neither side wins this battle. The radiance is trapped within the vessel's body but the void of the vessel manages to corrupt her mind. This twists her thoughts and essentially subverts her unity. It is this corruption and the combination of the light's desire to control the land and provide unity with the hollow knight's goals: To extinguish the light, and to not think or feel that creates the infection. The infection is elements of both of these. It has the radiant dreams as before but the light of them feels empty and shallow and lacks in any clarity and brightness. The bugs become thoughtless because it was the knight's desire to not think. The PC too is somewhat infected, and if he wishes to break this must purify the radiance, or he can try consuming it.

#

ok there

fair rampart
#

for exaltation I tried to go lore-neutral that could- oh

#

Anyone know how to change the settings for the GrimmChild Upgrades mod?

compact sedge
#

it's where your save files are

#

there's a GrimmchildUpgrades.GlobalSettings.json you can edit in notepad or something

#

anyway all this text dump is why after balancing things a flower ending makes sense and is gonna be eventually added as soon as I get around to editing the video and building the scenes to edit.

fair rampart
#

is that in steam common?

compact sedge
young walrus
#

it's also in pins

exotic venture
#

hm that kinda goes against the basis of what dreams are and where the radiance gets her powers from tbh

fair rampart
#

ah it's in appdata, thanks

compact sedge
#

milliS Mys actually knows lore oh god.

exotic venture
#

basically they are the bugs deepest desire that the radiance exploits

#

by sating those needs the pale king tried to stop the radiance from appearing

#

by giving bugs a mind he could fulfill those dreams and therefore erase the radiance from the minds of his denizens

compact sedge
#

Nothing about that changes. The radiance isn't some pure being who doesn't use tricks to accomplish her goals. The idea behind her "unity" is to provide the bugs with an entirely fake dream world in which they are happy.

#

and this is why the PK constructs the vessel. he wants to keep the reign over the kingdom.

exotic venture
#

the problem with that was that the needs of bugs were absolutely unsated since pure desire still arose from it

river eagle
#

lore

exotic venture
#

i'm more talking about the corruption part

river eagle
#

but in modding hollowwoke

fair rampart
#

mods*

copper nacelle
#

no

compact sedge
#

But the infected dreams are not this ideal world where all your desires are fufilled. they seem that way at first maybe but they are false. And they are false because of the corruption which affects the radiance.

fair rampart
#

rip

river eagle
#

The google drive folder already has a list of them all

#

so no need

exotic venture
#

but wasn't reverting bugs to their basic forms her goal? i mean, she drives instinct of all things

frigid gale
#

Primitive Buggos

exotic venture
#

also we should probably dump this in DMs since now people wanna talk about modding and modders arent doing their jobs by telling us to stop the discussion and moving it to DMs

#

as per usual

compact sedge
#

hmm ok

copper nacelle
#

begone

river eagle
#

having a three way discussion in DM's? dunq #hk-lore would be much more fitting

exotic venture
#

three way? think it was just me and AA

hollow pier
exotic venture
#

maybe it's to quickly restore health and swap out charms

#

very big thonk

frigid gale
#

I come back to see mystery sayin three way?

exotic venture
#

can we don't

river eagle
#

zote nothing..

exotic venture
#

hal i can't believe you've done this

frigid gale
river eagle
#

It was an honest mistake I swear

#

or was it?

copper nacelle
frigid gale
#

Y'know Ill have a three way with you guys any time. Don't leave me waiting Mystery... grimmwink

copper nacelle
#

can u don't

river eagle
#

Also 56, what did you say I was supposed to use to uncompile the files?

#

Redhat something right?

copper nacelle
#

nothing

#

get the source off GitHub

odd jetty
#

Hmmm, threeway, I know something that is better than three way

copper nacelle
#

make a docker container

#

cease

#

of rhel7

#

use the centos repos iirc

#

clone the files there and modify

fossil oxide
#

Centos?

#

Is that like euros

copper nacelle
#

use pyinstaller to compile

#

and save the docker container so you can modify again easily

river eagle
#

Why doesn't the github just have uncompiled versions already to make this easier mantiswhy

frigid gale
#

idk thinkgrub

compact sedge
#

github with binaries?

#

ech

copper nacelle
#

@river eagle it does GWchadMEGATHINK

river eagle
#

actually, do I even need to compile them again

copper nacelle
#

yes

river eagle
#

the .py files should work right?

copper nacelle
#

wdym

river eagle
#

What if I were to just use the uncompiled versions

#

or do they have some other formatting?

copper nacelle
#

uncompiled won't run

#

they'll just be there

river eagle
#

I mean the .pyc files are the compiled ones

#

and the .py are uncompiled

#

yet they work fine

copper nacelle
#

what

river eagle
#

okay looks like I'm seriously missing something here

odd jetty
#

What are you downloading that uses python?

river eagle
odd jetty
#

Yes

river eagle
#

yeah and I can't edit them

copper nacelle
#

yes

river eagle
#

but I can edit the .py files

odd jetty
#

Yes

river eagle
#

so what if I just don't turn them into .pyc files

odd jetty
#

But what are you trying to do?

copper nacelle
#

delete the pyc and then modify the .py

#

might work

#

@odd jetty they're running zote off a uni server but the uni server didn't even have python installed at all so i pyinstaller'd it

river eagle
#

it's just that the .pyc files have some codes the .py files are missing

odd jetty
#

wat

hollow pier
#

.pyccknn

odd jetty
#

who, why are you using a bot that runs with python and how do you only have pyc files

copper nacelle
#

cause zote

#

and pyinstaller

river eagle
#

56, I went through every single .py files I could edit, and for example nowhere did I find the code fror the ;psa command

copper nacelle
#

they don't have python installed at all

#

eeeeeeeee

river eagle
#

so it has to be in the compiled files

copper nacelle
#

u fool

cunning lagoon
#

i dont see a problem here

odd jetty
#

Why not use a virtual env? o.o

copper nacelle
#

virtual env didn't work

#

tried that

#

their gcc version is too low

#

and i don't want to recompile python

odd jetty
#

Why recompile python

#

I am so confused

copper nacelle
#

cause python won't run w/ a gcc version that low

river eagle
#

you mean I should be able to find the code somewhere in the .py files?

odd jetty
#

The machine is windows?

river eagle
#

it's an old ass linux server

copper nacelle
#

this is what you get

#

really fantastic

odd jetty
#

I never saw a linux without python

copper nacelle
#

same

odd jetty
#

it must be a old python

copper nacelle
#

whymst delete

#

oh

#

anyways psa is in here

odd jetty
#

you probably can turn pyc back into py btw

fossil oxide
#

Discussions

river eagle
#

yeah found it there, not in the bot.py file though

fossil oxide
#

What about expositions ?

copper nacelle
#

they have .py

exotic venture
#

this is an old version though

odd jetty
#

But how you guys only have pyc files

#

I am so confused

copper nacelle
#

pyinstaller

#

compiles things into binaries

#

so you don't have to have python to run a python program

river eagle
#

It's just that I'm very confused why ;artpsa doesn't work notlikequirrel

#

I literally copied the code from ;psa

#

and yet

#

;artpsa

copper nacelle
#

what perms did you give it

#

;help artpsa

river eagle
#

so I thought I had to edit the compiled files

odd jetty
#

Edit compiled files

river eagle
#

same thing with

#

still says 107% even though I changed it to 112 in the data.py file

#

I even changed it to 112% in the init folder

copper nacelle
#

move data.pyc out of the dir

#

thank

odd jetty
#

Did you reboot the bot?

river eagle
#

obviously

fossil oxide
#

rebot the bot*

odd jetty
#

Well, why the virtualenv doesn't work?

copper nacelle
#

lemme type out the error

fossil oxide
#

inb4 'the error'

copper nacelle
river eagle
#

I already went through the error with Conrad

copper nacelle
#

yeah it means you need a python compiled for that glibc version

river eagle
copper nacelle
#

e

odd jetty
#

can't you copy and paste that .so file?

copper nacelle
#

no

odd jetty
#

into the VE

#

no?

copper nacelle
#

i tried that

#

some kernel error iirc

river eagle
#

I feel like conrad has no idea about how linux works

fossil oxide
#

Linux?

#

Isn't that some cat

#

Sorry I meant

#

Youtube channel

river eagle
#

Linus Torvalds you mean?

odd jetty
#

So weird

copper nacelle
#

@odd jetty so to get around it i used http://www.pyinstaller.org/ in a docker container so it'd make everything for the right gcc version

odd jetty
#

why python needs gcc

copper nacelle
#

needs glibc

#

not gcc

#

sorry

odd jetty
#

oh

copper nacelle
#

you could use staticx

#

idk how pyinstaller deals with .py files

#

to be tbh

odd jetty
#

I just think that compiled python is quite weird

copper nacelle
river eagle
#

yes, literally me in the pic

#

also I moved the data.pyc file from the directory

#

but still

compact sedge
#

So how much ram does zote take to run anyway?

copper nacelle
#

moved and restarted?

river eagle
#

probably can't read it from there

#

currently both the data.py in Zote and in _ init _ have 112%

copper nacelle
#

yes but you like

#

restarted the bot

#

right

river eagle
#

I mean I used the kill -9 command

compact sedge
#

hmm

river eagle
#

and then tried using a zote command, didn't respond

compact sedge
#

why aren't you using like tmux or something with the bot

#

so you can just kill it with ctrl + c

#

instead of force killing it

copper nacelle
#

tmux isn't installed

#

nothing is installed

compact sedge
#

reeeeee

#

wtf

#

screen?

river eagle
#

and without admin perms...

copper nacelle
#

no screen afaik

compact sedge
#

or no

copper nacelle
#

that or screen was breaking

compact sedge
#

so you have to run the bot with disown then

#

eww

copper nacelle
#

ye

#

nohup + disown

odd jetty
#

So, no sudo dist-upgrade? notlikequirrel

copper nacelle
#

no admin

river eagle
#

The server itself is running python 2.7 hollowdab

copper nacelle
#

aka useless

compact sedge
#

smh my head I should just host zote

#

except I'm not a mod so yeah that's not happening

copper nacelle
exotic venture
#

could also host it but my internet is unreliable as fuck

compact sedge
#

I have a vps but it has a puny amount of ram (1GB)

exotic venture
#

ouh, how much do you pay for it

#

been thinking about getting a vps for ruby shenanigans

#

or rather, sinatra shenanigans since RoR sucks and I wanna test stuff

compact sedge
#

5 dollars a month but starting out they give me 10 "free" months for 5 dollars and I'm planning on, before that free trial ends, getting hosting through my linux user group.

exotic venture
#

that's not all that expensive dang

#

also is setting up a webserver with a domain like you have dependant on what VPS provider you have?

compact sedge
#

no

river eagle
#

It's fine, this server is up 24/7h and it's free for me

exotic venture
#

like, does it just work or do you need specific requirements

compact sedge
#

if you have a VPS you get a linux VM where you are root.

#

and you have a public ip address

copper nacelle
#

is zote restarted

compact sedge
#

that in theory doesn't change

#

now basically how it works is you get images of pre setup systems you can load on. I loaded on a basic gentoo one and updated everything and then installed nginx and setup the server with that.

#

then I just told my domain provider (namecheap) to point to that public ip that I was given and it just worked.

exotic venture
#

ah

#

i see

compact sedge
#

some VPSes don't provide images for certain OSes (so you're forced to use like debian or something, unless you wanna make your own image which sounds like actual pain)

some VPSes force you to use a certain kernel (bad ones, don't use any that do this, they are very insecure)

#

just avoid the ones that do these things and you should be good

exotic venture
#

i'll probably go with ubuntu since that's what i'm mostly familiar with...

compact sedge
#

every one should have ubuntu

exotic venture
#

all right, thank you!

compact sedge
#

idk what the difference is between ubuntu and debian when you don't have a gui tho

copper nacelle
#

ubuntu is more updated

#

it's like debian unstable

#

iirc

compact sedge
#

so use debian unstable then?

#

or is debian unstable rolling?

copper nacelle
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

ubuntu is more stable than debian unstable tho

exotic venture
#

i know debian's development is, well

#

iffy

copper nacelle
#

also yeah debian unstable is rolling

exotic venture
#

so i'll pick what's still commonly used and getting updated

#

and i quite liked kubuntu when i was using it on this ancient windows vista laptop

#

so i think i can manage with just a console with that

compact sedge
#

understandable

#

I stopped really following the differences between distros once gentoo consumed my computers I found a distro I liked.

exotic venture
#

i tried tinkering around with gento and portage isn't really that to my liking so i kinda forewent that

copper nacelle
#

nixOS

exotic venture
#

although i must say i really like emerge

#

makes me feel like a wizard

copper nacelle
#

I made it so the hits to stun caps out

copper nacelle
#

wtf

#

free boss

compact sedge
#

free if you can survive it at the old hardmode's max speed which a couple people can.

#

but by design now

#

new hardmode tho

#

ain't free

#

and I still am not convinced a human can get more than 20k on that

copper nacelle
#

@ kurosh go

#

i haven't actually played any mods since gm's release

weak lodge
#

Kurosh best player when

copper nacelle
#

except like minor testing

exotic venture
#

i haven't played any mods since 1.3.3.7 was a thing

compact sedge
#

anyway mys I have two large problems with gentoo

  1. Is it takes a lot of disk space. Probably an extra 5-10 GB over other distros on average.
  2. building the kernel. genkernel never automatically copies config files over which is annoying, and beyond that there's no readymade kernel config files that you can use, unless you steal them from other distros like arch.
exotic venture
#

yeah i heard that was kind of a problem, having to recompile after every update

#

that kinda irked me too

#

kubuntu was pretty okay with that though, not as customizable and configurable as i'd have hoped but eh it worked

#

and it supported the odd setups i sometimes have

compact sedge
#

The biggest problem is making kernel configs by hand sucks when your only goal is "I want all the crap inside my computer to have working drivers for it"

copper nacelle
#

isn't there a thing for that

#

auto something

#

i used it when i was compiling my own kernel

exotic venture
#

iirc no

compact sedge
#

not that I'm aware of

#

because it's like ok let me find the driver for x or y or z. ok so it's a network product so let me go into network, oh it's actually in usb drivers so let me go there and scroll through those

copper nacelle
#

yes

#

found it

#

make localmodconfig

compact sedge
#

that only works if you ALREADY have working drivers for stuff

copper nacelle
#

yes

#

use a precompiled kernel

compact sedge
#

which requires you having already made a working kernel config

copper nacelle
#

make localmodconfig

#

ez

compact sedge
#

and the other problem with localmodconfig is it means you can't plug in any new devices

exotic venture
#

i remember having to get drivers for my ethernet connection which wouldn't work

#

so it tried to search up the drivers through ethernet

compact sedge
#

rip

exotic venture
#

which failed

#

so i got an sd card instead because usb drives wouldn't work due to some dumb reason

#

guess what

#

it needed a driver for that too

compact sedge
copper nacelle
#

nice

compact sedge
#

@copper nacelle but see how even with your solution you need to steal a kernel from another OS. it's the same as stealing a kernel config from another OS. Gentoo should just come bundled with a kernel config that has everything enabled.

exotic venture
#

so the only way i got it working was to butcher my CD drive, grab the SATA data/power converter out of my main rig because i used a slim drive, grab another hard drive, put the drivers on that and that worked
