ok
and sean's guide is shit that video basically overrules everything he said in it
old gen runners dodging through second bomb 
1:50
56 it still doesn't work though 
ah yes iconoclasm
Is this game up on speed run website? I'm out all day so I can't play but I'll watch a run
it is
my favorite baten kaitos song
it's on src yeah
Thanks
you may notice a trend among the wr holders

or just make iconoclasts balls of steel
Mfw Sean is a god 
i believe in you kurosh
he can't god cycle or dark cave optimization
in a fake category
he will fall
i sleep
take his any% wr
make a category thats just any% but with a very very slight change
"slight change"
aka actually having to play the game
besides to get accessories that let you hold your breath
mad cus bad
how can a game be mad?
cause its bad

I don't even own iconoclasts
Who remember Emilitia exist, raise hand
have you tried owning iconoclasts
DRACO 
draco 
I do
draco 
i remember emilia too
have you tried purchasing it in freedom
its well worth the price
imagine judging from eu prices
$22 for a game im gonna figure out how to airswim
real men judge from canadian prices
the only currency consistently fucked by steam
then skip to the final boss
Why is there never just a no glitch category, honestly nmg always kinda bugged me in HK.
is televator a glitch
is getting uumuu stuck in the floor a glitch
Good point, but you are still defining them. I guess a line has to be drawn.
god god cycle isn't possible 
yeah i mean in the end glitchless/nmg categories are just completely arbitrary
the first laser just barely appears before you can go through
its up to the community what they want to ban and whatnot
are you referencing something called god god cycle or saying god, god cycle isnt possible
there's a god cycle
hey all, just curious what language hollow knight uses?
and he's labbing the god god cycle
NMG is just a more accurate definition
c#
neato
fsm
i migth pick this up sometime
and playmaker
pain

god god cycle is carrying god cycle speed into the next room
more like "through" the next room
you already carry the speed into it with the god cycle
if the first laser was slightly slower you could pass it and dodge the next one i guess
Is a blessed emoji
pay for it scum
thanks me too
I did with my free nitro that I paid for
fucking 56
any baldur shell ms
good enough
welcome back gradow 


Inv fall is a glitch I would say, ex pogo not much, acid skip not at all. -In before inv fall rage
@weary oyster
awww 
great now im just gonna see more of the dreamshield one

!ass.GetTypes().Any(type => type.Namespace != null && type.Namespace.Contains("Modding"))``` this is throwing

in what way
brb

typeloadexception
em System.Reflection.RuntimeModule.GetTypes(RuntimeModule module)
em System.Reflection.Assembly.GetTypes()```
ass is just assembly-csharp.dll tho
Holy shit this iconoclasts games looks soooo good why the fuck have I not been playing this
consider eroico
Assembly ass = Assembly.ReflectionOnlyLoadFrom(Properties.Settings.Default.APIFolder + @"/Assembly-CSharp.dll");
Everyone is switching
we got another one bois
convert the server 

Related
at this rate sean might lose a wr
getting 2nd place
I'm watching one of your runs @rain cedar you are a fast boi
fast but he won't dark cave optimization

Dark cave is sketchy
Ever thought about slowing down, ya know just enjoying the moment??
real sketchy
bet he doesn't do fast city escape either
maybe i'll take your The Iconoclasts rekky

what
hes told you he's gonna take your no airswim rekky
eh doesn't even go for free tower rocket
all cutscenes category when
just practice and save some time but don't submit it 
then when he thinks hes bopped you
unbop yourself
rebop
iconoclasts 87% metacritic, higher than hollow knight hehehe
The real Goty right here
apparently it released like a week before celeste and got completely overshadowed by it 
Wtf its been out nearly a full year. I gotta re evaluate my life
Yeah that's probably why I did hear about it
as a speedrun itgs really good, it has a lot of movement tech and stuff
movement 11/10 bosses 5/10
the bosses are kind of underwhelming in general and some of them have a bit of rng in them
city escape optimizations 18/10
this
yeah many of them feel like a autoscrollers even when they are not
but the movement really makes up for it
its very fun
getting lost in tower -87/10
same
How does it compare with Celeste
i prefer icono
ill never understand boss design that has gives them any immunity in general
its just bad
and slow
and boring
I also agree that invincible boss stuff Is annoying
It can work if the downtime is short and the boss is still a threat so it's interactive still
please play my boss, I programmed it and it has attacks thanks
Iconoclasts has huge downtime where the boss isn't a threat to you at all
yeah
kerthunk for example is basically a glorified autoscroller
at least the first phase
Nkg does it well, but I still don't love it
pretty sure the only boss that has no downtime is like starworm/bird and corners
yeah i actually love starworm now
tbh NKG is infinitely less annoying than elder hu
elder hu can die
hu can eff right off
yeah, furi usually has final phases with lots of downtime, but it coincides with difficult dodging so it’s cool
everyone knows the elder
His older brother Ancient Whom

everyone asks elder hu but nobody asks elder wai
is that the first boss of hornet dlc
🚪 👈 .... get out
u
okay, new error
Who needs Hornet when Iconoclasts exists?
this
who needs iconoclasts when literally any other super janky glitchy game exists
kdt what is this hate boner against icono
who needs kdt when the garbage dump exists
who needs iconoclasts when rando bingo tournament exists
who needs new strats when you still have wr
who needs to post this in #archived-modding-development when there are multiple speedrunning channels
no
keep the backslash
sr-offtopic sucks
\
they have worse shitposters
real men shitpost in modding
cant imagine how that would possible
just post tenor gifs ez
just post hollowD ez 

yeah same
dexterclaire 
so modding-offtopic when
hey @copper nacelle
dae do this cancel https://youtu.be/K9sfDqIyPlI
as i recall in the tutorial sean randomly dodged twice there and said "don't do that"
(string) nonNullTypes
.First(type => type.Name.Contains("Constant")).GetField("GAME_VERSION").GetValue(null)```this is giving me an NRE
sean did mention to cancel there iirc
even tho u said it wouldn't
i never remember to do it but yeah
explain
not even in the corridor before omega controller
yeah i do go for those
ok good
..except when if orget
when are you doing runs
pretty sure you can just get a 1:3x on your next one
kurosh remove santa hat
no
is that gsa tweet on speedrun cause of what oddbod said like 3 weeks ago
took a long time for them to respond to that 🤔
all i did was watch the finals and flad won
no thats the old one
kb runners rejoyce 

any bbt
hmmm
theres a new one with gsa
probably no
and a 5k prize pool
just give the 5k to flad
yea thaTS THE ONE I MEANT
he said it was a bad idea cause of cheating and whatnmot
im talking about this all i did was watch the finals and flad won
o
yea ok
yes oddbod talked about why he doesn't support the new one
its incredibly easy to cheat in celeste

and gsa was saying they'll make sus people do inputs during downtime
fixed it
not that theres any downtime in celeste
Nice
wrench 

yes robin is a criminal
reported to irl police
yay
vanilla dll with current patch loads fine
what abouit vanilla dlk
what abouit
sigh
same
timesink verulean muri
i want to watch icono
i can't stream the internet here is shit and i have 5 years of homework
i am, so angry right now i want to die

imagine not always wanting to die
you are mom
same

i can't play this on keyboard
yes you can
because my laptop keyboard doesn't accept 3 inputs at once
it's at home
not for icono which should be your biggest priority
why is your laptop keyboard unable to accept 3 inputs at once
Thats how bad leyboards work
this post made by 4 keyboard inputs at once keyboard
leyboard
Lvl 1 laptoo kb vs lvl 100 mechanical lb
vs lvl 1315 lb
vs level 1337 corsail ergonomic keyboard for pirates
how do you go past the big skull fuck to lure him without taking damage
Whomst
the guy who royal explodes
You bully him against the corner
o
Whats with the blank spsce
Yws
understandable
You do indeed have to use the powerup you just acquired moments before this fight
doesn't royal literally say "use the bomb thing"
Yeah
imagine not joining ax's server
Why stop at one hollowD use

it is a pure place
ok
no
very nice
ruined
NO
something something sonic adventure 2 city escape
Post the saves again
Its in srcom
o
weary
my saves are better 
No
theres just no reason to place them inside a folder
you have to double click them every time you want to get a save 
on the plus side you just have to copypaste them so i guess it has its good and bad things
Is it the same saves other than layout differences?
yea


Renaming files is way more work than entering a folder
i will send saves once i rename them all to save1
only did that for like half of them
why does the helicopter have a death laser
why wouldn't he
same
i'd update the srcom file with this one but i don't think anyone other than us 3 will use it
Graig might
yeah
ok which one is save2
i believe blocker

i also like your names more
insane
it's literally just the rocket shot then wrench 3
yeah
cool
if you're lazy name it 21.5
nah i'll do the right thing
nuts
whats a good name
post-gun tower
Tower (Post-Gun) imo
nuts
or Post-gun

Is there a mod that replaces zote with a better boss for that round in the arena?
no
We need one
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/459912621714440192/534521655037394964/unknown.png
@copper nacelle looks like your with me buddy
That is seriously underwhelming
wtf
and I hate hurting zote
his with you?
this is a very good save for sean so he can practice the insanely free rocket shot
same
why
Somehow it is our fault
XD
just neglect imo
Because neglecting zote is just cruel
Do you really want Zote to pass off his genes

definitive evidence
How Can Zote Be Void If Hornet Isnt Void?
She doesn't have a mouth
renaming nobel skip to nobel for consistency sake
veru will you nuke the vod
consider my counterargument
no mouth
it's invisible
I'm going to ruin hornet for you
Stop denying the truth
help
You are only lying to yourself
really?
lol
where do i go after mina's mom tells her she sucks
all the way left
Who?
mina from lightbringer
when you screenshot a typo and immediately type kuro but you realize it's a 56 typo
same
i dont think isilugar labs (dodgeroll is a good name
although pre-last key wasnt too good either
it's the part where you do the dodgeroll idk what you want from me
)
fucking died
to infection
lmfao sure
again
do it
it has been named God Cycle Practice

It's so the names are unique
hm k
Any_No_Airswim_Saves_ahhyuk
nah
That is terrifying
Nobody could pull duct tape off the roll that easily
Must have some kind of mega strength super power
truly scary stuff
anyone who can take off tape from the roll without scissors is an alien change my mind
Am I an alien if I use my teeth?
I don't eat it I just bite it to create a small tear
Then I can rip all the way across with my hands
that sounds reasonable
well you already proved your alien biology when you posted your broken ring finger
I mean it depends on the type of tape
for some, you dont even need to use your teeth
also, it's a cat with claws
He's clearly not using them to cut the tape in that gif

Come on man half my viewerbase is tied up there
I'll never make partner if I don't choose my stream times wisely
well you'll never make partner if you don't stream so
imagine if sean was a big streamer with 50 vegetable emotes
that's the dream
😍

why does using my laptop's keyboard feel so much less sluggish than using an external keyboard in hk?
Ok timesink is taking too long I'll do it now





who wants to be my guinea pig?
to do what
test the new installer
anything for papa gradow 😍
it works
what is this test for
thanks it's rewind time everybody
you are welcome doubt
🛃
oh yeah
any donation
there's still more stuff to do
pensive
why is your folder nameed Hollow Knight 1432 did you pirate the game
yes i did
turns out you cannot unload an assembly
don't help the obvious pirate guys
so I'm gonna have to work around that
☠
have you considered making the modinstaller significantly slower and allowing easy installation of customknight spritepacks
automatically installing customknight sprites would actually be pretty good
there's been some demand for them lately in #archived-modding-help
we all serve the modding help people
I tried using the mods but it tells me to update my game, its already update though
What patch is your game
How do I check that.
1.4.3.2
well it should not tell you that
are you using rhe latest version
installer version i mean
I'm pretty sure I am, I'll try reinstalling
@blissful burrow runs

🛃

I tried a lot of other things, none work
Read the assembly as bytes
did
generic error
"Unable to load file or assembly (...) or one of its dependencies. System cannot find specified file."

this is inside a if (File.Exists) btw, so I know the assembly exists
so, what I can do is
load specific types from a given assembly
maybe I could just do that
but the problem is, I need an instance of that type
Try LoadFile
😔
Type myType = typeof(BestType)
BestType ass = (BestType) dom.CreateInstanceFromAndUnwrap(Properties.Settings.Default.APIFolder + @"/Assembly-CSharp.dll", myType.FullName);```
with this I can load the type BestType from the assembly
oof
ass
thx, it is less legible now

nice spelling

cat bumped my arm
send cat pic
cat
yes
would you like a video of my dog
no
she's in heat I think
i meant to say yes but my cat bumped my arm
why is she in heat so much
no other cat I've had was ever in heat as much as her
thats pretty rude kurosh
no i don't

be careful finchmeister or you might get banned
oh no he cant hear us
the benji is coming
goodbye gif
same
lack of "good" hk gifs is saddening
its just 3 grimm gifs
exactly
OMG
I got it
best workaround EVER
instead of Assembly.Load(assemblyBoi); I just do Assembly.Load(byte[]FromAssemblyBoi); and it references the assembly without opening it
heaven
...almost
wut?
heaven
modinstaller updated!
♥
I mean... they wouldn't be dumb enough to do that... right????
(I have 0 faith)
((((((should I write out the smart way or do devs not read this channel?)))))
it wouldn't surprise me if it was a different exe tbh
sigh alright
smart way is this
Everyone gets the hornet DLC assembly, and the DLC is enabled with a serialized bool
and a bunch of levels/assets are downloaded with the game if the DLC is installed
that way even if the user fakes this bool value they will be missing the levels/assets, stopping people from bypassing it.
the second most sane way (not sane) which is what a lot of games from the early 2000s do would be to have a second exe but that's like, double the amount of maintaining you guys would need to do and would also make the game file size wayyyyyyy larger than they need to be.
the worst way would to have it swap out the assembly for a new assembly if you download the dlc
pete do runs
@hollow pier i agree too
@hollow pier stream
Graig is online hold up
Not away anymore
He might stream soon
wow thats actually nuts
Need to get low% faster again
can we expect a low% stream tomorrow
Idk
Maybe I could stream skip finding
Low% is the only airswim category that doesn't swim into impact
stream snake practice
im actually fairly convinced that you can keep the initial slopeboost through most of the room
but i havent bee able to get it
nvm i might have an iedea
There's some guy named ericoid in vys chat and I read it as eroicod
eroicoD
Maybe keeping the slope boost is what pete was talking about
Where you run into a purple dude
i've ran into the purple dude even without the sleop boost
it looks just barely impossible
but if it is possible i dont think its worth going for
ah i think he meant the ceiling purple dude
Yes
yeah either way this room is shit
He calls the other purple dudes snakes
what
i dont remember what i was doing but i bumped into this obne
That's still a ceiling purple dude 
but yeah if you have a boost up here you bump into the first one
yes thats why i said i bumped into the purple dude that was one level lower
I should probably buy iconoclasts
yes
Probably
insane
outlandish
wash dishes and i come back to 3 pings
no
i can't believe pete would do this to us
i posted fast snakes like 3 times idk how sean didn't see it
same
Don't help Sean he's the enemy
were you ever able to keep a slope boost up
what
from where
in snakes
i've been trying to keep it with a gunboost for a while but it's just
freaking impossible trick
finch there are no enemies in speedrunning it's a community effort
are discord pics not loading for just me
ah yes a picture that i can't see
yeah that's reasonable i was considering making one for that
but i figured getting there didn't take too long and whoever wants a save for that can make it
@warped sinew u streaming?
this slope boost is impossible
I cant believe you would just ping a tc member like that
yeah its weird cause you can make it with a jump + gunboost
never bring this shit into my edge cancel household again
but when trying to get the slope + gunboost it's just impossible
ok so ladders are shit
if you ar eholding down and buffer a jump you jump instead of going down it
i hate them konjak fix
I mean yeah
"I pressed jump and I jumped waaaa" 🙂
except a jump input on that situation wouldn't be an actual jump?
Oh wait
I thought you meant you held down while climbing a ladder
Then pressed jump
And expected not to jump
right
That has nothing to do with ladders that's any buffered jump
i see
yeah on platforms too
should be a frame 1 duck imo
or whatever they're called
what are they called?
Crouch?
but you jump to go under it's not just a crouch
Duck
terrible tech
thanks konjak i hate it
the worst thing is im not even sure if this is worth it
even if it works
cause you have to slow down on the previous room to not gunboost
how fast is your fast snakes
in theory pretty fast
like very very fast
cause you keep the slope boost all the way
if it's possible, that is
but is it cooler than 3 edge cancels
unlikely
nothing is
Yes
has anyone tried going through blocker somehow
on the spots where he doesn't let you through
That's the intended way to kill him
not the boss fight
you can do this with the snake setup for this room
since you wait out the last one the cycle works
well he's at least slightly different from a wall
he gets the X popup from a charged wrench shot
That would be a neat time save but I don't see how we would get through him
it doesn't look feasible
how does going through blocker do things
you skip parts of the game
i only speak of small optimizations please do not mention major skips in my house
the usurper room is locked behind a wrenchable thing so skipping the blocker in the toxic room wouldn't do much i don't think
and after snake
yeah that one
skipping the first blocker would skip straight into the cycle room before snakes
and you'd skip a key
you can see where i'm coming from
or we could skip another slower key
that'd probably be faster
or get every key that we currently get but use them somewhere else
first one in tower probably
really sucks
I timed it at some point but I don't remember
why is blocker even sitting here
fuck if i know
You can do zips with this platform super easily so maybe try stuff with that
will do
is he an actual enemy?
he gets the x popup from hitting him so maybe
i have some ideas but nothing too good so far
Fastest is down+jump
that's what i've been doing
this is eomwhat promising
Your best bet is to zip off this somehow I'd say
fastest way down to there is downjump off the bolt then dodger
yeah
its just barely not enough
hmm
how does the chest zip work
would it be possible to zip off of this chest
Because if we did that we wouldn't get the chest
Being able to do this would be cool too
i do not recognize this place
ah yes
could you induce lag and slow down the door somehow
now that'd be something
Unlikely
pause buffer until shit happens
if you do anything frame perfectly the game breaks so
how did you do it wtf
Magic
i guess this is the power of a wr holder
what even is this place
one concern west
how much modding goes on here
None right now
like annually
6
what if therees a built-in dev skip because the puzzles were too hard for konjak
x
you can also stomp inside a crawlspace but it looks completely useless
yeah
But nah that's too easy to do accidentally
All the stomps where you can cancel without wrench would zip you instead
I already tried exactly what you're thinking

Dodger in the zip from the left one pops you out to the left
where is my graig stream anyway
Graig lied PepeHands
unbelievable
smh
you are right that is pretty nuts
