#

same

twin bobcat Jul 16, 2020, 10:55 PM

#

I so want to fight all the white knights

#

I’m guessing that they’re gonna make it so that you can use the awakened dream nail to enter the dreams of the dead ones by dreamnailing their corpses to fight them

nimble lake Jul 16, 2020, 10:57 PM

#

iirc their statues are in the white palace anyways

twin bobcat Jul 16, 2020, 10:58 PM

#

It would also be cool if they make like a Hegemol NPC because it’s not confirmed that he’s dead
Just naked and...?

#

Also I don remember there being statues of anyone besides Hollow Knight and Pale King

nimble lake Jul 16, 2020, 11:00 PM

#

it's likely he's dead, but i won't delve into that here

#

also they'll just add HoG-style statues to the throne room

vocal spire Jul 16, 2020, 11:00 PM

#

Yeah

twin bobcat Jul 16, 2020, 11:00 PM

#

What about the charms

nimble lake Jul 16, 2020, 11:00 PM

#

5 new charms

vocal spire Jul 16, 2020, 11:00 PM

#

Those are added too

#

Also any mod can add charms now with charm helper

twin bobcat Jul 16, 2020, 11:01 PM

#

Also that would be boring if they just do HoG statues
It’s an expansion, not a new boss/charm mod

vocal spire Jul 16, 2020, 11:02 PM

#

I’m pretty sure that was what it originally was

#

They said that there is more stuff now

twin bobcat Jul 16, 2020, 11:02 PM

#

I only know what was said in the teaser trailer

vocal spire Jul 16, 2020, 11:02 PM

You need to search for what happened to find out the meaning

fallow wind Jul 16, 2020, 11:46 PM

Hey guys im interested in starting modding for hollowknight? What software do you use to mod? I am familiar in Unity so I would like to start using that if thats how it works. THanks

#

Creating mods*

copper nacelle Jul 17, 2020, 7:14 AM

#

https://radiance.host/apidocs are some docs

#

you'll want dnSpy for decomp and the fsm viewer

#

API docs have a tutorial video as well as explaining the basics

#

you can export asset bundles from unity using the tutorial in the pins to use in game

#

https://github.com/fifty-six/HollowKnight.HellMod/blob/master/HellMod/HellMod.cs this is a basic mod which is a decent example

#

Thanks homie so much

#

Right now I wanna make a luigi skin for the knight lol

copper nacelle Jul 17, 2020, 7:17 AM

#

You can avoid basically all modding if that's all you want rn

long cosmos Jul 17, 2020, 7:17 AM

#

Well I want to start learning how to do it

copper nacelle Jul 17, 2020, 7:17 AM

#

there's a mod called Custom Knight which lets you edit the sprites for the knight

#

Understandable

long cosmos Jul 17, 2020, 7:17 AM

#

I thought I'd start somewhere by changing sprites around

#

yea yea I have it installed

#

Want to make my own sprite layout and then incorporate what I've learned to make custom sprites for a mod

#

big dreams but I wanna achieve it

copper nacelle Jul 17, 2020, 7:18 AM

#

Generally for sprites you want an embedded resource in the dll and then you just find a tk2dSpriteAnimator and get the sprite definition's material's texture and set that or you set the sprite on a SpriteRenderer

long cosmos Jul 17, 2020, 7:19 AM

#

Aight I think im understanding

copper nacelle Jul 17, 2020, 7:19 AM

#

if you want to find those they're just on the GameObject which you can get a dump of by using ModCommon and just calling PrintSceneHierachyTree on the GameObject

#

There's an in-game repl called ModConsole to make that easier

#

enemies are listed in debug mod with their names generally and there's a knight dump pinned as well

long cosmos Jul 17, 2020, 7:20 AM

#

aight bro thank you so much Im going to screen record this so I don't forget

copper nacelle Jul 17, 2020, 7:20 AM

#

np

long cosmos Jul 17, 2020, 7:20 AM

#

Will get to working on it tomorrow and will let you know my progress

long cosmos Jul 17, 2020, 7:53 AM

#

@copper nacelle what modding api do I download? it says to get one on the tutorial website

copper nacelle Jul 17, 2020, 7:54 AM

#

you just open the mod installer and it'll install the api for you

#

Ok cool

compact cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 4:56 PM

#

Can I extract a scene's data with the mod console? I'd be so much more convenient
If yes, then how can I do it?

fallow wind Jul 17, 2020, 4:56 PM

#

That would be useful, I don't know

vocal spire Jul 17, 2020, 4:56 PM

#

use utiny ripper

dark wigeon Jul 17, 2020, 4:57 PM

#

What are you going to do with the scene data

compact cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 4:57 PM

#

I need it so I can see the object's names

#

That's mostly it

vocal spire Jul 17, 2020, 4:58 PM

#

just use the first 2 pins in modding-development

#

or debug

#

or hkedit

dark wigeon Jul 17, 2020, 4:58 PM

#

If you don't feel like opening up the editor use asset studio or assetsview

#

They will give you a tree view of the gameobjects

compact cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 4:59 PM

#

Oh I just saw that you also extracted the GG scenes, which is what I was mostly looking for

vocal spire Jul 17, 2020, 4:59 PM

#

I did

let's keep asking then!

Any idea how can I enable this (triggers glowing womb's fury state) from a mod?

dark wigeon Jul 17, 2020, 6:12 PM

#

You're asking how to have that whole method called?

vale rock Jul 17, 2020, 6:12 PM

#

I'm sure I could figure it out if I took 5 minutes

#

But meh

nimble lake Jul 17, 2020, 6:13 PM

#

well that, but I also want to trigger the entire if statement that turns on the fury (which i'll try to figure out later)

dark wigeon Jul 17, 2020, 6:13 PM

#

Mobile view super jpeg can't really read it

#

What prevents you from copy pasting

nimble lake Jul 17, 2020, 6:16 PM

#

this.

dark wigeon Jul 17, 2020, 6:17 PM

#

Why not replace this with the instance then

nimble lake Jul 17, 2020, 6:17 PM

#

because I don't know how to reference that specifically

dark wigeon Jul 17, 2020, 6:17 PM

#

What script

nimble lake Jul 17, 2020, 6:18 PM

#

the one that triggers the fury state

dark wigeon Jul 17, 2020, 6:18 PM

#

but what script

nimble lake Jul 17, 2020, 6:18 PM

#

I don't know

dark wigeon Jul 17, 2020, 6:18 PM

#

you took a screenshot of the method in the class

nimble lake Jul 17, 2020, 6:18 PM

#

oh, KnightHatchling

vocal spire Jul 17, 2020, 6:19 PM

#

I think I know how to do what you want but I am unsure if it is right so I won't say it

dark wigeon Jul 17, 2020, 6:23 PM

#

just by looking there's no static references to it

#

there's just one gameobject tho so just GameObject.Find("Knight Hatchling") and find the KnightHatchling component

#

well actually nvm I was only local searching

#

it's in resources.assets so somebody has to spawn it, will look later but have to go

nimble lake Jul 17, 2020, 6:27 PM

#

alright, see ya

dark wigeon Jul 17, 2020, 6:28 PM

#

ok the search finished and a reference was found in Charm Effects - Hatchling Spawn FSM

#

so you'd have to get the reference from the fsm

#

I would just to Gameobject.Find

nimble lake Jul 17, 2020, 6:29 PM

#

i remember looking through the fsm but couldn't find it there

#

only in KnightHatchling

dark wigeon Jul 17, 2020, 6:29 PM

#

there could be more unity refs, I just did quick search

#

#

definitely refs there

pd.equippedCharms.Clear();

@floral iris
what you need is

C# IDE (Visual Studio 2019 works, or Rider if you have it)
Net Framework 3.5
ILSpy (tho DNSpy also works but ILSpy is apparently better) which youre gonna use to read the games code for reference (note you shouldnt be using this to edit the AssemblyCSharp to make mods)
an FSMViewer (especially needed if youre gonna make a mod about bosses)

#

2 other stuff youll need that you can download is the Modding API and ModCommon, which should automatically get installed if you used the ModInstaller on startup

floral iris Jul 18, 2020, 6:58 AM

#

great, thanks! i'll start with that

#

i'm especially interested in level design and adding/modifying rooms, which i've seen some people do. do you know if that's possible with just that software?

floral furnace Jul 18, 2020, 7:02 AM

#

hmmm im not too versed with that side sorry, but you can actually ask either NES or SFGrenade for that, latter is currently doing PoP style new area stuff so you can probably ask him for some directions in that regards

floral iris Jul 18, 2020, 7:04 AM

ah yeah i think that might have been what i saw

the PoP mod i mean

what do you not understand

stoic flare Jul 18, 2020, 8:00 PM

#

I don't understand how they edited the grimmchild

#

I currently want to find a way to edit the damage output done by grimmchild

@fallow wind when did you download this and yes you need 2017.10

@fallow wind when did you download this and yes you need 2017.10
@dark wigeon I figured it out, but the entire scene is pink, which is not a problem, since I just needed to look at the name of some gameobjects. I downloaded today

dark wigeon Jul 18, 2020, 8:23 PM

#

Well that shouldn't happen regardless

#

What scene

stoic flare Jul 18, 2020, 8:58 PM

Is there a way to make the grimmchild always asleep? I have tried this, and it works well, but when you sit on a bench or exit a dream it just wakes up for some reason

oh, I think I didn't, some of the docs were still "TODO" so I thought the rest would be the same

aha thanks

maybe I should put a list of all the sections that are done and not done on the front page

(deepnest_east_07)

stoic flare Jul 18, 2020, 10:03 PM

#

ok so, I don't know if I am doing something wrong or if I am missing a reference, but whenever I try to do PlayMakerFSM fsm = go.LocateMyFSM("FSM_Name"), it gives an error saying that PlayMakerFSM can't be declared, and that go is not known in the context and when I try to use fsm in any context it always says fsm does not exist in context

copper nacelle Jul 18, 2020, 10:05 PM

#

add a ref to playmaker.dll

stoic flare Jul 18, 2020, 10:07 PM

#

oh thanks, my god, I have been looking for like 20 minutes for what I was doing wrong

#

oh wait

#

it still says go does not exist in this context

copper nacelle Jul 18, 2020, 10:13 PM

#

show code

stoic flare Jul 18, 2020, 10:15 PM

#

well, it is just me testing it right now, so the code is basically the example mod pasted

copper nacelle Jul 18, 2020, 10:15 PM

#

but where is the go

stoic flare Jul 18, 2020, 10:17 PM

#

oh wait, my bad, aspid not go, it is aspid in the example code

#

oh that aspid got fixed after putting reference, now it is the Aspid in GameObject aspid = Instantiate(Aspid.preloadedGO["Aspid"]);

copper nacelle Jul 18, 2020, 10:19 PM

#

aspid is just the class Saleh used for his mod

#

if you wanted to load some preloaded GameObject you'd use whatever class your mod is

#

If it's a static field ofc

ok so first of all, I need to make certain of something
This GrimmChild class, are you actually using it?

#

can I see the code where you add it to the grimmchild?

vocal spire Jul 18, 2020, 10:56 PM

#

you can't just add it to anything or add it to nothing

ornate rivet Jul 18, 2020, 10:56 PM

#

My fear is that you haven't done that and tried to copy the class I made without understanding how it is used since I dont explain it in the guide and assume you know it

stoic flare Jul 18, 2020, 10:57 PM

#

huh? ahaha..

ornate rivet Jul 18, 2020, 10:57 PM

#

the Grimmchild class you have made, do you use it anywhere?

I want to continue to help, but I gtg

so, is the only problem that I haven't used it?

no

stoic flare Jul 18, 2020, 10:58 PM

ah.

ornate rivet Jul 18, 2020, 10:58 PM

ok so before we fix the class, let's find the grimmchild gameobject

stoic flare Jul 18, 2020, 10:59 PM

#

Grimmchild-control?

ornate rivet Jul 18, 2020, 11:00 PM

I assume you got this from the fsm viewer

stoic flare Jul 18, 2020, 11:00 PM

yes

ornate rivet Jul 18, 2020, 11:00 PM

Grimmchild-control is not the name of the fsm

stoic flare Jul 18, 2020, 11:00 PM

#

oh bruh

ornate rivet Jul 18, 2020, 11:00 PM

the first part before the "-" is the name of the grimmchild gameobject

the part after the "-" is the name of the fsm

so

it should be LocatemyFSM(Grimmchild, "Control")?

unfortunately no

@ornate rivet I have a question about DoH: When loading gameObjects for attacks, there was this code:

 public override List<(string, string)> GetPreloadNames()
        {
            return new List<(string, string)>
            {
                ("GG_Mantis_Lords", "Shot Mantis Lord"),
                ("GG_Radiance", "Boss Control/Absolute Radiance"),
                ("GG_Hollow_Knight", "Battle Scene/Focus Blasts/HK Prime Blast (4)/Blast"),
                ("GG_Hive_Knight", "Battle Scene/Droppers/Bee Dropper (1)"),
                ("Grimm_Nightmare","Grimm Control/Nightmare Grimm Boss"),
            };
        }```
and this code:
            ```preloadedGO.Add("mantis", preloadedObjects["GG_Mantis_Lords"]["Shot Mantis Lord"]);
            preloadedGO.Add("rad", preloadedObjects["GG_Radiance"]["Boss Control/Absolute Radiance"]);
            preloadedGO.Add("blast", preloadedObjects["GG_Hollow_Knight"]["Battle Scene/Focus Blasts/HK Prime Blast (4)/Blast"]);
            preloadedGO.Add("bee", preloadedObjects["GG_Hive_Knight"]["Battle Scene/Droppers/Bee Dropper (1)"]);
            preloadedGO.Add("grimm", preloadedObjects["Grimm_Nightmare"]["Grimm Control/Nightmare Grimm Boss"]);
            preloadedGO.Add("bat", null);```
I know that the second one is accessing a dictionary but what is the first one do

that preloads the stuff

it's a child of charm effects on the knight iirc

vocal spire Jul 20, 2020, 2:16 PM

Yeah

#

You could probably just get the object from the Hatchling Spawn fsm and then edit it

tawny onyx Jul 20, 2020, 2:21 PM

you mean I can save the gameObject ref from Hatchling Spwan then locacate the fsm of it?

#

Yeah

tawny onyx Jul 20, 2020, 2:21 PM

Just use insert method

Or insert action

just object pool spawn hook

I've always wanted to make a HK mod but I have no experience with programming- only really artwork and spriting

vocal spire Jul 22, 2020, 3:55 AM

#

Some modders need sprites done for them for some mods if you want to do it that way.

sly garnet Jul 22, 2020, 4:05 AM

#

perhaps

#

I've always had an idea for an original like simpler mid-game boss but I know thats way too ambitious to start out

dusty idol Jul 22, 2020, 6:54 PM

Is soul referred to as MP in the code?

vocal spire Jul 22, 2020, 6:54 PM

Yes

dusty idol Jul 22, 2020, 6:54 PM

actually, is there a website or document that explains what all the functions and variables and stuff do?

dusty idol Jul 22, 2020, 8:35 PM

I think I had this with another game

but I moved everything to a new pc, and I guess 3.5 didn't come with it

vocal spire Jul 22, 2020, 8:36 PM

#

Are you sure that the project itself is 3.5?

dusty idol Jul 22, 2020, 8:37 PM

it was at 2.0, but the drop down didn't have an option for anything higher than 2.1

#

I'll try making a new project

vocal spire Jul 22, 2020, 8:37 PM

#

Yeah

#

I had the same problem with my first mod

#

I just copy and pasted everything into a new project

dusty idol Jul 22, 2020, 8:38 PM

just to be sure, it's Class Library (.NET Framework) right?

vocal spire Jul 22, 2020, 8:38 PM

Yes

dusty idol Jul 22, 2020, 8:38 PM

#

ok

now I see all the versions

vocal spire Jul 22, 2020, 8:38 PM

Good

#

Now just copy and paste

rain cedar Jul 22, 2020, 8:39 PM

.net standard is a different thing

That's why you didn't have the same versions

dusty idol Jul 22, 2020, 8:43 PM

dusty idol Jul 22, 2020, 8:47 PM

I'm running "PlayerData.instance.AddMPCharge(1);" in the update function to passively regen soul, but it doesn't change the display until I cast a spell

vocal spire Jul 22, 2020, 8:47 PM

I think you might need to call the update or something

#

Some other mods have that problem

dusty idol Jul 22, 2020, 8:48 PM

#

I have it attached to the hero update hook

vocal spire Jul 22, 2020, 8:48 PM

#

I meant the method or whatever that updates the soul orb ui

copper nacelle Jul 22, 2020, 8:48 PM

#

don't use the player data method

#

use the hero controller one

#

it sends an fsm event to update the ui

#

GainMPChargeSpa or w/e

#

idr the exact name

dusty idol Jul 22, 2020, 8:49 PM

#

uh, I'll look into that

ok, that worked

so how do I know when to use hero controller vs player data?

#

ok

fair rampart Jul 22, 2020, 9:20 PM

@sly garnet I'm working on something that's almost purely sprite based if you'd like to help!

vocal spire Jul 22, 2020, 9:22 PM

#

I’m thinking of just making a mod that adds a bunch of charms that other people request.

#

As long as they provide art

fair rampart Jul 22, 2020, 9:23 PM

#

That'd be solid. I think there are also a few unused charms in the game files already

vocal spire Jul 22, 2020, 9:24 PM

#

There are sprites of the charms

#

lol

fair rampart Jul 22, 2020, 9:25 PM

fair rampart Jul 23, 2020, 1:32 AM

#

@vocal spire Hey! I can do the art if you can tell me what the charm is about :D

vocal spire Jul 23, 2020, 1:33 AM

#

I meant a mod that adds a bunch of small charms that are requested

fair rampart Jul 23, 2020, 1:34 AM

#

O, do we have to think up the charms then?

vocal spire Jul 23, 2020, 1:34 AM

yeah

they can do nothing if you want

fair rampart Jul 23, 2020, 1:34 AM

how does adding charms work if there's a set number of them? Do you have to replace existing ones?

vocal spire Jul 23, 2020, 1:49 AM

you can replace an existing one

but grenade made charm helper

sounds good, but I'm not going to get into that quite yet

vocal spire Jul 23, 2020, 1:52 AM

#

ok

#

it's super easy though

dusty idol Jul 23, 2020, 1:55 AM

#

do they get loaded right away, or can you have the charms change while playing?

#

I suppose like the fragile charms or grimmchild

vocal spire Jul 23, 2020, 1:55 AM

#

wdym

#

in charm helper?

#

they get added right away

dusty idol Jul 23, 2020, 1:56 AM

#

so, like, I have a variable, if it's set to one value, I get a certain charm, if it's set to another value, the charm changes to something else

vocal spire Jul 23, 2020, 1:56 AM

#

idk if you can do that

#

there are probably ways to do that though

dusty idol Jul 23, 2020, 1:57 AM

#

I think it could be fun

vocal spire Jul 23, 2020, 1:57 AM

#

ok

dusty idol Jul 23, 2020, 1:58 AM

#

but anyway, I see there's a variable for the range of the nail. can I set that to whatever I want?

vocal spire Jul 23, 2020, 1:58 AM

#

probably

dusty idol Jul 23, 2020, 1:58 AM

#

I figure it at least wouldn't display properly without importing a new spite for it

vocal spire Jul 23, 2020, 1:58 AM

#

for a charm?

dusty idol Jul 23, 2020, 1:59 AM

#

no, for the slash animation

vocal spire Jul 23, 2020, 1:59 AM

#

oh

#

why would it need a new sprite?

dusty idol Jul 23, 2020, 2:00 AM

#

based on how the game works, I would think it has a sprite for each combination of long nail and mark of pride

#

so it can't just get upscaled to match the range

vocal spire Jul 23, 2020, 2:01 AM

#

It probably can

dusty idol Jul 23, 2020, 2:02 AM

#

well, if I simply set it to a high value, nothing happens

vocal spire Jul 23, 2020, 2:03 AM

#

Ok

#

There’s probably something else you need to set

#

Maybe something with a fsm?(probably not)

dusty idol Jul 23, 2020, 2:05 AM

#

I haven't gotten into fsm, and I kind of don't want to.

did you add references?

chrome abyss Jul 23, 2020, 3:04 PM

#

Oh I didn't

vocal spire Jul 23, 2020, 3:09 PM

#

You will need at least UnityEngine.dll Playmaker.dll modcommon.dll seanprcore.dll and assemblyC-sharp.dll

chrome abyss Jul 23, 2020, 3:11 PM

#

Where does one get UnityEngine.dll, Playmaker.dll, and assemblyC-sharp.dll?

vocal spire Jul 23, 2020, 3:11 PM

#

In the managed folder in hk

#

You will probably need more unity stuff

#

But it will probably tell you what you need

floral furnace Jul 23, 2020, 3:16 PM

#

make sure you have the API installed ofc before you reference it

chrome abyss Jul 23, 2020, 3:18 PM

#

Hm, I'm not finding modcommon.dll; is that not supposed to be in the Mods folder?

unborn flicker Jul 23, 2020, 3:20 PM

#

you don't need it

chrome abyss Jul 23, 2020, 4:53 PM

#

Does anyone know how to get a game object named "_Props/Geo Rock Abyss" when there's another game objected named "Geo Rock Abyss" in the same scene?

unborn flicker Jul 23, 2020, 5:11 PM

#

In this case, it's an issue with the FindGameObject extension used from SeanprCore automatically searching with FindGameObjectInChildren, I think

#

You could change your fork to use a different search method in ReplaceObjectWithShiny but of course that would mean checking that that doesn't break any existing items, including before and after collecting them, and on reentering the scene after spawning them but without collecting them

chrome abyss Jul 23, 2020, 5:14 PM

#

I might just say "fuck it, not worth it for the two geo rocks this applies to in the game" tbh

unborn flicker Jul 23, 2020, 5:14 PM

#

yrdhtsi

blissful burrow Jul 23, 2020, 7:59 PM

#

If you really want to you could find all of the objects, linq them to name contains geo rock, then place a shiny on their transform, then yeet them

#

Of course FindObjectsOfType<GameObject> is kinda ech and yusuf will yell at you for it

#

But you might be able to just shift the blame to homothety because it's rando and be on your merry way

#

MaggotSmile

#

Ah

#

GeoRock exists as a type

#

So you could just do that

#

Assuming it's functional which is a big assumption in this game

unborn flicker Jul 23, 2020, 8:09 PM

#

Yes, you can search for GameObjects with a GeoRock component

#

that does not make it remotely compatible with the way randomizer places shinies for individual items

blissful burrow Jul 23, 2020, 8:10 PM

#

I mean if you explicitly need the name for some reason, you could preload the scene then search in it (probably, haven't fucked around with preloading too much), then do name

unborn flicker Jul 23, 2020, 8:11 PM

#

I mean, yes, knowing which item is which is probably important at some point in the randomizer

blissful burrow Jul 23, 2020, 8:11 PM

#

I know preloading game objects needs the name to begin with so it's probably not useful, idk if you can preload a scene per se

copper nacelle Jul 23, 2020, 8:12 PM

#

no

blissful burrow Jul 23, 2020, 8:13 PM

#

I mean, I'm not gonna tell you how to randomise stuff, but that's not necessarily obvious

#

I assume FindObjectsOfType finds the objects in a determinate order, for example, so you could be assigning x items to a scene, for example

#

Not that it'd be better, idk how it works right now

#

So it'd probably be worse

unborn flicker Jul 23, 2020, 10:43 PM

#

How much effort would it be to manually load one of the Hall of Gods boss scenes without doing it from a boss statue?

ornate rivet Jul 23, 2020, 10:44 PM

#

not very hard?

vocal spire Jul 23, 2020, 10:44 PM

#

Shouldn’t be... right?

ornate rivet Jul 23, 2020, 10:45 PM

#

Should just be

GameManager.instance.BeginSceneTransition(new GameManager.SceneLoadInfo
{
    //put settings here
});

unborn flicker Jul 23, 2020, 10:46 PM

#

When I do that the scene changes and I can move around, but the screen is dark and the boss doesn't spawn.

ornate rivet Jul 23, 2020, 10:46 PM

#

do you choose the correct gate?

unborn flicker Jul 23, 2020, 10:46 PM

#

oh, probably the visualization

ornate rivet Jul 23, 2020, 10:47 PM

#

I've done it to WD before and remember it working

#

oh but that was the nongodhome version

#

still dream scenes shouldn't be different from godhome ones

unborn flicker Jul 23, 2020, 10:48 PM

#

dnspy shows some really messy stuff with the BossStatueController and I wasn't sure how much of it I actually need to get the sequence to work

#

Nevermind, changing the visualization didn't fix it

copper nacelle Jul 23, 2020, 10:52 PM

#

just send blanker down or w/e

unborn flicker Jul 23, 2020, 10:53 PM

#

After a few seconds in the scene, the game kills me and I respawn in the dream nail sequence with the screen still black

copper nacelle Jul 23, 2020, 10:53 PM

#

🥴

#

that's the dying in voidheart thing

#

you haven't set the dream respawn scene

#

the black screen is the blanker though

#

or the camera fade

#

https://github.com/fifty-six/HollowKnight.QoL/blob/master/QoL/SkipCutscenes.cs#L202

#

and L219

#

should prob work

unborn flicker Jul 23, 2020, 10:57 PM

#

oh yeah soul warrior was spawning

#

I just didn't have headphones on and debug didn't update the panel, so I thought he wasn't

#

I'll try that then

#

That fixed the camera issues. Thanks!

GWseremePeepoHappy

#

np

unborn flicker Jul 23, 2020, 11:02 PM

#

Yeah, looks like no issues now with loading into the scene and getting it to work

#

Any ideas for how to handle the event after the boss dies? Right now it seems like nothing happens

copper nacelle Jul 23, 2020, 11:03 PM

#

might need a BossSceneController thing for the automatic one

#

there's also an instance event for HealthManager, so you could hook the boss's hm

unborn flicker Jul 23, 2020, 11:03 PM

#

hooking that sounds much easier than dealing with TC code

#

ultimate goal is a shiny where you have to defeat the boss to pick it up

Why you gotta delay SceneLoaded hook by 1 frame

#

I do it because api docs told me to but I don't know why you gotta

Is it like objects don't exist first frame?

So if you wanted to like spawn stuff instead of messing with already spawned objects you wouldn't wait ig?

compact cobalt Jul 25, 2020, 10:27 AM

#

So a mod that recently caught my eye is the NG+ King's pass mod because I want to do something similar. So far I've been using a plando with the item changer and it's been working out pretty well, but seeing as I wanna export it as a separate mod and want to work a bit faster, I want to ask how that mod was made. I assume it was with HK edit and not just plain coding?
If that's the case can you also help me to get that working? HK edit really doesn't have any readme files that explain most things (at least as far as I found) and even though I was able to open, modify, and export scenes in unity, I can't find the mod that loads them anywhere (talking about version 2)

#

Seeing as NG+ is a separate mod I assume you'll have to put the map files in a separate mod file in which case I'll have to look into that

#

Keep in mind I know pretty much nothing about the ModAPI so forgive me if this is a stupid question, and explain in greater detail so I can actually understand lol

copper nacelle Jul 25, 2020, 10:33 AM

#

it's just code

compact cobalt Jul 25, 2020, 10:34 AM

#

Hm. I was thinking there'd be a more convenient way

#

So is HK edit still supported?

copper nacelle Jul 25, 2020, 10:35 AM

#

grenade made new scenes in it, could probably set up stuff and additively load

#

I think Saleh got a scene mod thing working

#

To an extent at least

compact cobalt Jul 25, 2020, 10:35 AM

#

I see

#

I suppose I'll have to look into the API more then

ornate rivet Jul 25, 2020, 11:38 AM

#

I was able to make this https://streamable.com/pc8k7j using Utiny Ripper (the t is intentional). The only problem it has is that you will need to fix shaders and some game ai.

#

I'm not sure exactly why some of the code works and some of it doesn't with Utiny.

compact cobalt Jul 25, 2020, 11:55 AM

#

So how do you actually put the scenes in game? I know you need to make a folder called HKWEDiffs and put the exported map files there, but I can't find the mod that loads them anywhere

sage holly Jul 25, 2020, 9:19 PM

Alright so I made a mod that changes some charm effects and costs which I think is a nice start. What's next on the list from simplest to complicated that I can try? I was thinking importing enemies and objects into scenes, although I wasn't able to find much about that in the documentation

#

Any help on that, or tips on what I should try to do next?

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 12:34 PM

By importing enemies do you mean assetbundling new enemies or taking enemies from different scenes

Taking enemies from different scenes

I mean source code of other mods

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 12:39 PM

#

Look at https://radiance.host/apidocs/ModdingAPI.html#preload-gameobjects

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 12:40 PM

#

You can use any mod that preloads stuff

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 12:40 PM

#

Yeah, I already have that open but keep in mind I'm rather new to this

#

Oh wait, can I get the source code of the mods with DNspy?

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 12:41 PM

#

https://github.com/SalehAce1/Propeller-Knight/blob/master/PropellerKnight/PropellerKnight.cs

#

this is a pretty clear example

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 12:41 PM

#

Yeah

#

Also yes to dnspy

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 12:41 PM

#

most of them are on github so you really shouldn't have to use dnspy

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 12:41 PM

#

Aha, alright thanks a bunch

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 12:41 PM

#

probably better not to use dnspy to look at mods unless you must

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 12:42 PM

#

Yeah

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 12:42 PM

#

Yeah, that's my thinking as well

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 12:42 PM

#

maybe I should start linking examples from other mods in to each section of the modding doc

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 12:42 PM

#

I wanna get into this so I hope you don't mind answering my questions every now and then

#

And yeah you definitely should

#

This is only the second time I'm working with APIs so all this is pretty new to me

#

And I know lots of folks wanna get into making mods as well

#

So examples help a lot

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 12:43 PM

#

this channel exists to answer your questions so definitely ask

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 12:44 PM

#

Aight, I'll be sure to ask whenever I have questions then

#

Hopefully I'll be able to figure this out without too much trouble

#

Nvm actually, I was about to ask something but answered it myself

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 12:46 PM

#

hollowknice

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 12:46 PM

#

Ok

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 12:47 PM

#

you're supposed say Ok RedFrog

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 12:47 PM

#

Me?

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 12:47 PM

#

yes

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 12:47 PM

#

Ok

#

There

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 12:47 PM

#

Lol

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 12:47 PM

#

I said it

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 12:47 PM

#

Well expect more questions in the future lads

#

I wanna learn to do this

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 12:47 PM

#

Wdym I said ok the first time

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 12:49 PM

#

hmm

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 12:57 PM

#

Alright, so I'm a bit confused. Now I know how you're supposed to preload the objects which is great

#

But I don't know how you actually import them in a specific scene

#

~~unless I completely missed something~~

#

I'm just a bit confused because there are no coordinates at all, or target scenes

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 1:02 PM

#

you save them in the Initialize method then use them later when you get to a different scene

#

I save them here https://github.com/SalehAce1/Propeller-Knight/blob/master/PropellerKnight/PropellerKnight.cs#L51

#

And I use them in a different scene here:https://github.com/SalehAce1/Propeller-Knight/blob/master/PropellerKnight/PropFight.cs#L622

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 1:04 PM

#

I think you sent me the same link twice

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 1:04 PM

#

Yeah

#

I think it is this? https://github.com/SalehAce1/Propeller-Knight/blob/master/PropellerKnight/ArenaFinder.cs

GitHub

SalehAce1/Propeller-Knight

Adds Propeller Knight from Shovel Knight to Hollow Knight. - SalehAce1/Propeller-Knight

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 1:06 PM

#

no

#

this should be the second link https://github.com/SalehAce1/Propeller-Knight/blob/master/PropellerKnight/PropFight.cs#L622

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 1:07 PM

#

Ok

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 1:07 PM

#

I get the preloaded objects in the init method, save them into a dictionary, then I use the dictionary to spawn copies of them in the second link

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 1:09 PM

#

Aha, I'll try it out

#

I assume the name of the scene is PropellerKnight?

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 1:09 PM

#

no

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 1:10 PM

#

Hm. Thought so because of
GameObject plat = Instantiate(PropellerKnight.preloadedGO["plat"]); ;

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 1:10 PM

#

Zote scene from eternal ordeal?

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 1:10 PM

#

PropellerKnight is the name of the class

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 1:10 PM

#

Yeah

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 1:10 PM

#

Aha

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 1:10 PM

#

I am getting the dictionary with everything saved in it from the class PropellerKnight

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 1:11 PM

#

Mhm

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 1:11 PM

#

this is where I define it https://github.com/SalehAce1/Propeller-Knight/blob/master/PropellerKnight/PropellerKnight.cs#L20

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 1:13 PM

#

Ok, hopefully I'll be able to figure it out. I'll have to try it out later tho

#

Thanks again

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 1:14 PM

#

Saleh are you going to say np or am I supposed to say it for you

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 1:15 PM

#

sid is supposed to

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 1:15 PM

#

I was waiting for them many times but they never said it

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 1:16 PM

#

RedFrog, you should put your mods on github

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 1:17 PM

#

I will

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 1:17 PM

#

ok good

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 1:17 PM

#

I will also eventually put larger mods that aren’t finished on github publicly

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 1:19 PM

#

just be sure to put the ones that are done at least

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 1:19 PM

#

Yeah

#

I think I left the source code for lifeblood master on a different pc but I think I still have it for Uuwuu

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 1:21 PM

#

cool

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 1:21 PM

#

I need to update charmhelper for Uuwuu still

#

I keep forgetting

high solar Jul 26, 2020, 1:34 PM

#

ХК для детей

floral furnace Jul 26, 2020, 1:34 PM

#

@high solar english only please

high solar Jul 26, 2020, 1:35 PM

#

Ok

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 4:16 PM

#

Alright so I have come to the conclusion that I have no idea what I'm doing or need to do

#

Can someone write some code for me so I can figure out how I do this?

#

I'm trying to place a Zombie Guard (origin map Crossroads_48) in Town at 219.2, 16.4

#

Yeah I didn't manage to figure it out

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 4:20 PM

#

Ok not going to write it for you, but I’ll tell you what you are doing wrong if you show me the code that places it

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 4:21 PM

#

That's the problem

#

Can't figure out even where to begin

#

and yeah, I know what you're going for, teach a man to fish don't just give him food

#

But trust me it'll help a lot if you write it

#

If you're up for it of course

#

Alright let me see if I can understand it (again, it's the second time I'm working with APIs so bare with me), but I'd appricate if you can write the code for the thing I asked for

#

Alright

#

I'll try that

#

Hold up

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 4:44 PM

#

?

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 5:04 PM

#

Alright I couldn't test it cuz I was a witness to an AB P5 stream

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 5:06 PM

#

ok

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 5:07 PM

#

Alright so I wrote it like this:

        {
            base.Initialize();
            ModHooks.Instance.SavegameSaveHook += this.SaveGameAction;
            ModHooks.Instance.CharmUpdateHook += this.ChangeCharms;
            ModHooks.Instance.HitInstanceHook += this.HitInstanceAdjust;
            UnityEngine.SceneManagement.SceneManager.activeSceneChanged += OnSceneChanged;
        }
        private void OnSceneChanged(UnityEngine.SceneManagement.Scene from, UnityEngine.SceneManagement.Scene to)
        {
            if (to.name == "Town")
            {
                var go = GameObject.Instantiate(preloadedObjects["Crossroads_48"]["Zombie Guard"]);
                go.transform.position = new Vector3(219.2f, 16.4f, 0f);
            }
        }

#

And Class1.cs(109, 49): [CS0103] The name 'preloadedObjects' does not exist in the current context

#

Oh wait, did I really forget that? Hold up

#

no?

#

Yeah idk what I'm doing wrong

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 5:32 PM

#

You need a dictionary<string, GameObject>

#

Called preloadedObjects

#

Public dictionary<String, GameObject> preloadedObjects;

Try pasting that in

#

Next to initialize or something

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 5:35 PM

#

Like this?

📎 unknown.png

#

I know this is painful, it's painful for me too

#

But it just has more errors as you can see

unborn flicker Jul 26, 2020, 5:51 PM

#

There are a lot of mistakes here. Right now you aren't even preloading any objects to begin with. Please read this page carefully: https://radiance.host/apidocs/ModdingAPI.html

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 5:52 PM

#

Alright, let me take another look then

upper niche Jul 26, 2020, 6:13 PM

#

How's the multiplayer mod doing?

knotty monolith Jul 26, 2020, 6:15 PM

#

on the installer though there's no enemysync or anything

ornate rivet Jul 26, 2020, 6:29 PM

#

unless someone besides jngo starts updating it, it appears it will no longer be updated

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 6:30 PM

#

I want to try updating it but I want to finish other mods first

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 9:08 PM

#

Alright, so I reread everything more carefully, took a bit of a break, fixed my fuckups and mistakes I did because I misiterpreted some of your advice, and did this:

📎 unknown.png

#

No problems upon building or compiling, but the Zap Cloud still doesn't show in game

unborn flicker Jul 26, 2020, 9:08 PM

#

You aren't preloading Zap Cloud

#

Look at GetPreloadNames

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 9:09 PM

#

Am I really not?

#

I am, I think

#

The second line

#

oh

#

yeah you're right

#

It didn't work on the Zombie Guard either though, which is another problem

unborn flicker Jul 26, 2020, 9:10 PM

#

Right now it is surely throwing an exception in Initialize

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 9:12 PM

#

Yeah I added it in and it still doesn't show up

#

So how can I fix this?

#

It did at least fix the issue of displaying the mod as 'couldn't load' even though it did

#

But yeah, how do I fix this?

#

I doubt it's because of the rest of the code. It's completely unrelated

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 9:26 PM

#

I’ll look your code over again

#

Oh wait

#

You need to do zapcloud1.SetActive(“true”) or something like that

#

After you set the position

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 9:43 PM

#

oh, let me try it

#

Yeah that was it

#

MMMMMM I'm so glad it works!

warm copper Jul 26, 2020, 9:47 PM

#

Nice! Congrats Mike!

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 9:52 PM

#

Thanks Clark

#

You can expect something P5AB level now lol

warm copper Jul 26, 2020, 9:52 PM

#

Hahaha

#

Alrighty then

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 9:53 PM

#

Glad it worked

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 9:56 PM

#

Yeah, I'm still at the beginning (obviously, very obviously)

#

But it's been going rather smooth so far, which is nice

#

I'm going to try and change the AI a bit next

warm copper Jul 26, 2020, 9:57 PM

#

Best of luck my friend howdy

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 9:57 PM

#

Already to fsm editing?

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 10:00 PM

#

Hopefully

#

We'll leave it for tomorrow

#

I think you guys and me both had enough headache for one day lol

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 11:49 PM

#

So, not code related, but still. Does anyone have a nice cube/rectangle spike collision I can load?

#

All the collisions I've found have complex shapes

#

And the rest of the spikes as in _Props\Cave Spikes 1 are just decoration

#

I need a nice spike collision that I can resize

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 11:50 PM

#

make it yourself by assetbundling(jk there is probably something like from radiance)

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 11:50 PM

#

Problem is, those aren't real spikes

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 11:50 PM

#

you can bounce off them

#

they hurt you

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 11:50 PM

#

As in hazard spikes, when you touch them they disappear

#

Yes, but you don't respawn

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 11:51 PM

#

well, edit them

#

it's probably something with layers

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 11:51 PM

#

Hm. Can you just create a spike collision with a command?

vocal spire Jul 26, 2020, 11:52 PM

#

idk

compact cobalt Jul 26, 2020, 11:52 PM

#

That would come in more handy

#

Urgh, it's so annoying. The spike collisions are just one big object

#

Yeah, looks I'll have to use radiance spike collisions and just set damageHero.hazardType

#

Hm. Looks like spike collisions are just one big object everywhere, and henceforth none of them have a proper shape. It's either Radiance spikes or a custom object it seems

#

Well then, the spike collider is massive, but at least it's a perfect rectangle?

#

Surely there must be a more convenient way though

vocal spire Jul 27, 2020, 12:16 AM

#

eat the spike

#

that's your better way

compact cobalt Jul 27, 2020, 12:16 AM

#

Surely you've used spikes right?

#

In your mods

vocal spire Jul 27, 2020, 12:17 AM

#

nope!

#

I used sawblades!

compact cobalt Jul 27, 2020, 12:17 AM

#

Well then

#

Were they static?

#

In which mod?

vocal spire Jul 27, 2020, 12:18 AM

#

uuwuu

#

at the top of the arena

#

killing oomas

compact cobalt Jul 27, 2020, 12:18 AM

#

Aha, so they were static?

vocal spire Jul 27, 2020, 12:18 AM

#

yes

compact cobalt Jul 27, 2020, 12:18 AM

#

Great!

#

And I assume they didn't make the noise either?

#

Because I couldn't hear it

#

But it might've been because of the music

#

Which object did you use?

#

I can probably figure it out on my own, but if you can remember (I know that's unlikely with how much stuff is used), but it'd still be helpful

#

Alright I found the name out

#

Let me see if this will work out

#

So it's at least temporary

#

I know Nafi Khan used spikes in their mod, what's their discord username if you know it?

#

They're the creator of the NG+ King's Pass Mod, if you don't know

#

Yeah saws are up and running. I would like to replace them with regular spikes just so it fits

#

Actually

#

The saws don't even make any sound, meaning if I can make them transparent my problem will be solved

#

Is there a way to change the opacity of an object?

#

Can't find anything about it on the documentation

trim totem Jul 27, 2020, 12:37 AM

#

hello

compact cobalt Jul 27, 2020, 12:38 AM

#

Yo

vocal spire Jul 27, 2020, 12:39 AM

#

hello

compact cobalt Jul 27, 2020, 12:39 AM

#

So can you help me solve the unsolvable problem of spike collisions

#

Or at the very least changing opacity of objects so I can do that to saws

vocal spire Jul 27, 2020, 12:39 AM

#

just change the color or something

compact cobalt Jul 27, 2020, 12:40 AM

#

Hm. Can I set the material in unity to something transparent?

trim totem Jul 27, 2020, 12:40 AM

#

sorry i know very little, i just preloaded the spike hitbox from king's pass

compact cobalt Jul 27, 2020, 12:41 AM

#

Yeah, I know pretty much the same

vocal spire Jul 27, 2020, 12:41 AM

#

why do you need to make the saws transperant?

compact cobalt Jul 27, 2020, 12:41 AM

#

Which hitbox?

#

If you can help me with this Kahn you're a lifesaver

#

The only one I can find is too big

trim totem Jul 27, 2020, 12:41 AM

#

what are you trying to do?
