Hello guys. You have probably heard this question MAAANY times but I would like to know how I can create my own mods. I also want to know if it uses C# since I heard this game is made with Unity. I have lots of experience with Unity and I'd love to be able to code my own mods. Thank you

Alright, I'm kind'a slow.

I'm using FSMViewers, and I'm trying to find out what sounds are available (let's say, for example, sly's voice). There's a few mods that make references to the PlayMaker location [https://github.com/Kerr1291/BoopSoundMod/blob/master/BoopSoundMod/BoopSoundMod.cs#L212, eg.] but I'm not sure how to find a list of these (or even where one would be) in FSMViewer. Can anyone point me in a direction?

(I did read the radiance api article; it uses a number of state names like "Distance Fly" or "Fire Dribble" or whatever, but I'm not where where these are coming from.)

ornate rivet Jan 16, 2021, 2:56 AM

#

📎 unknown.png

#

you click on the state and it lists the actions

#

In the link you send, the action was AudioPlayerOneShotSingle which plays a sound once

#

In the picture I sent, the state selected is "In Range" and the actions it has are "ShowPromptMarker", "Trigger2dEvent", etc

#

"Distance Fly" and "Fire Dribble" are state names

nocturne meteor Jan 16, 2021, 2:59 AM

#

Ahh, okay, that makes sense! For audio, is there an indication of what audio is used where in this?

ornate rivet Jan 16, 2021, 2:59 AM

#

not quite sure what you mean but I believe the FSM Viewer doesn't show the audio clip names unfortunately

vocal spire Jan 16, 2021, 3:00 AM

#

I believe clips is a property of it(?) AudioClip array

ornate rivet Jan 16, 2021, 3:00 AM

#

it might in the latest version

nocturne meteor Jan 16, 2021, 3:00 AM

#

Sorry, sorry: for example, like, if I wanted to find what "Sly_Talking" was called, or whatever, or even the sound of the nail, I'm not sure where to find those audio file names.

#

I don't think it lists them in FSM, unless I've been really unlucky with all the things I clicked around on, you're right.

ornate rivet Jan 16, 2021, 3:01 AM

#

foreach (var i in FindObjectsOfType<AudioClip>().Where(x => x.name == "Sly_Talking")
{
 // do stuff with your audio clip
}

#

that could work

#

if the scene you are in has the audioclip you want loaded

nocturne meteor Jan 16, 2021, 3:03 AM

#

Okay, is there a way to list of the AudioClips? I don't actually know what things would be called, Sly_Talking was just an example that prob doesn't exist, haha.

ornate rivet Jan 16, 2021, 3:03 AM

#

or you could do trial and error and figure out what audioclip the fsm is playing by printing its name into the log

#

I usually just figure out the names by logging

vocal spire Jan 16, 2021, 3:03 AM

#

Or you could use utiny ripper and find the references to them

ornate rivet Jan 16, 2021, 3:03 AM

#

Asset Studio would be faster than utiny ripper I think

nocturne meteor Jan 16, 2021, 3:04 AM

#

Oh, interesting. I have not used the unity ripper yet. It might be easier for me to figure out how to log them first since I know exactly what I want and exactly where in the game to find it, haha.

#

Okay, I'm gonna try out assetstudio since there's a bunch of hits for that in the discord. Thanks y'all!

Hi, guys!
I have a question. Are you aware of any mod that totally disables Depth of Field (background blur effect) in Hollow Knight? I mean specifically a simple fix that doesn't require an NVidia graphics card to work (like this one does: https://helixmod.blogspot.com/2017/06/hollow-knight.html) and was designed mainly with disabling DoF in mind.
And if such mod doesn't exist, I'm curious how difficult it would be to create?
I'm curious how much of a performance impact this effect has for integrated Intel HD Graphics 4600, and if disabling it totally could massively improve performance for low-end users.
Thanks!

jolly oriole Jan 18, 2021, 5:46 PM

#

afaik no such mod exists, but it should be as simple as deleting the blur from a scene when the scene is loaded and for the depth of field, i saw the camera has a setting for something like that, so maybe it's done with setting that to 0

I mean you just have to sort of look through the shared assets files and find an AudioClip you can export with the audio export plugin

#

But assetstudio might be easier since you can open the entire folder at once, filter asset types to just audioclips, and preview without exporting

the json is the thing that just defines where the sprites are on the atlas

How does the modding for Hollow Knight work? Are you injecting assembly into the DLLs or are you disassembling the exe and writing in C# or are you doing something else?

copper nacelle Jan 21, 2021, 7:09 AM

#

patch in some classes and methods which replace and add to the assembly

#

for the api itself

#

the api itself then just loads the mod assemblies which can change methods using the hooks given by the api or using the hooks given by monomod's runtime detour

mystic umbra Jan 21, 2021, 7:12 AM

So the code I provide to monomod is the assemblies of some C# code then?

lapis stratus Jan 22, 2021, 2:19 PM

#

Bosses are very fussy. I have suspicions based on the way that they currently act in ER that there's a few hardcoded position values in their AI which interferes with putting them in other spots. It's something I need to dive into at some point to fix ER stuff, but haven't gotten around to

tawny onyx Jan 22, 2021, 2:20 PM

for example, the pure vessel, the value "Plume Y" is just fit for that room

lapis stratus Jan 22, 2021, 2:21 PM

#

If you do plan to put bosses in other rooms, be mindful of their roar. If you don't make adjustments to it in situations where they activate on player transition, it can push the player immediately out of the door and prevent access to said room

tawny onyx Jan 22, 2021, 2:24 PM

#

do you mean the roar will push player ouside of the doors?

lapis stratus Jan 22, 2021, 2:24 PM

#

ER has a workaround in it that just skips the roar state. I originally wanted to just disable the push/stun effect so that the player could still see the roar visual effect, but it was easier to just disable it at the time and look into that later

#

Yeah. The roar has a stun and slight pushback, so if the roar occurs as the player enters a room, they'll stun inside the transition and be pushed back through it or out of bounds

ornate rivet Jan 22, 2021, 9:49 PM

best option is to disable the fsm, wait, then reenable the fsm and set the state

glass thorn Jan 22, 2021, 9:49 PM

#

    transition FINISHED -> End
[...]
    action HutongGames.PlayMaker.Actions.Wait

        FsmEvent finishEvent = FINISHED global: False
        System.Boolean realTime = False

glass thorn Jan 22, 2021, 9:52 PM

I wasn't increasing the time for the wait at all, just putting the action I want to delay on state "End"

I'm looking into moss knight behavior. Found "Moss Knight B-Moss Knight Control" using FSM viewer. "Initialise" state finds a child called "Evade Range" which should be an object of type AlertRange, which keeps track of whether the hero is inside a list of colliders. How can I find what those colliders are?

#

something has to create this evade range and add it as a child of the moss knight (which I think is just a Walker), but I haven't been able to find it in IL or FSM

Another C# question. I'm trying to have my mod thing spit out things into a debug log. I'm trying to use Tracer and tried to a) define it in the constructor (?? i'm still new at this, i think that's the constructor) and use it below, but it does not seem to make any files or write anything out.

If anyone has a second: https://github.com/jsal13/HKRDreamCatcher/blob/logging_debug/Mod/websocket.cs#L23-L24

Okay, this is all amazing. I'm sorry I'm not responding fast, I'm at work, but I will read all of these when I get home.

Yeah, my daily drivers are Python + JS, so unsurprising that my stuff looks like JS.

Okay, so far, all of these are totally legit. I just found out about the scene change hook, so my next version will be using that --- one of the downfalls of not reading the APIs you're using! Also, wow, you all hate 2-space! It was default, I guess, in my VS, since I def didn't change anything. I'll change it tho.

#

I wish that discord was good at responding to all of them individually, but tl;dr, I'll be putting all of that in. All seems reasonable. I think the static part of srRoomMapper/eventsToIgnore was a remnant of a previous bit of code.

#

lol: this is the default i had, i have no idea why. changin' it due to popular demand.

#

Also, if y'all have better ideas about how to share code for critique, let me know. I don't know how to really do it besides doing a PR and having collabs which isn't really useful here.

#

Q: When should I be using var over explicitly using the type?

copper nacelle Jan 26, 2021, 9:49 PM

#

that's a matter of style, I like to do it when the type is evident enough

#

like var x = new T(); or var y = JsonConvert.Deserialize<T> or var z = (T) expr

#

but some people use it everywhere and other people use it nowhere

#

with c# 9 you can use target typed new as an alternative too

#

which looks like List<string> li = new()

nocturne meteor Jan 26, 2021, 9:51 PM

#

Hm, so it's one of those things I should prob either use everywhere or nowhere.

#

At least so that it's not so weirdly distributed for me, a beginner.

unborn flicker Jan 26, 2021, 9:52 PM

There's essentially no reason to ever avoid using short types, especially value types.

I usually only use it for nested generics, like Dictionary<string, Dictionary<string, string>>, again where the construction makes it obvious and the type is distracting.

nocturne meteor Jan 26, 2021, 9:54 PM

#

Okay, that seems reasonable. What about in cases like for (var idx = 0; ...)? Should I be using int?

unborn flicker Jan 26, 2021, 9:55 PM

I think that's generally helpful for anyone scanning over the code, but it's mostly preference.

nocturne meteor Jan 26, 2021, 9:55 PM

#

It's easy enough to do. I'll prefer typing to not using var then, except in cases where there's long or nested types and the type is obvious from the right-hand side.

I'm trying to use the sprite script for Kitra to create a custom knight. I'm having problems though with pasting a .png on the Custom Knight Layer. Instead it creates a new paint layer. I'm also wondering do you need to create a new layer for each frame or is there a way to change the single layers animation based on its current frame reference? Is there a good reference video or guide for this? I was using https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rb8_Qvtdco0 as a guide but even at .25 speed its to fast to follow along and his docks are very different from mine.

To create a new version of a layer on a certain frame, right click the square in the animation area for the layer/frame and select "create new/duplicate key frame". Dunno how to do this in bulk, or how to make paste not go to new layer

So, I was going through the game code and making some very basic mods and I happened upon some code that slightly confused me because it made my code not work. Why does Team Cherry have their NailSlash.OnTriggerStay2D just call NailSlash.OnTriggerEnter2D? I was trying to make some code that did stuff when the player hit stuff and the function kept getting hit on the same object every frame the nail slash was in the object and I was quite confused until I realized they were doing this. Is there a better way to determine if I just hit an enemy or other object for the first time other than Mod.Instance.SlashHitHook/NailSlash.OnTriggerEnter2D?

There’s probably a much better way than this, but if you are putting stuff into a on hook for OnTriggerEnter2D then I would assume the best thing to do to only detect the first one is set some bool to false in a on hook for OnTriggerStay2D and make it true the next frame so it differentiates between the 2 with that bool. Another way could be recreating the OnTriggerEnter2D code in OnTriggerStay2D.

jolly oriole Jan 28, 2021, 1:54 PM

#

somewhat pseudo code

OnTriggerEnter2D(collider) {
    if collider is not from Knight or internal_bool
        return
    internal_bool = true
}
OnTriggerExit2D(collider) {
    if collider is not from Knight
        return
    internal_bool = false
}

vocal spire There’s probably a much better way than this, but if you are putting stuff into ...

That's not quite what I was trying to do. I'm trying to only deal damage to each target hit once per attack instead of once per frame. The current code in the OnTriggerEnter2D makes it deal damage every frame. However, I do notice that the code in OnTriggerEnter2D only seems to do knockbacks and pogos and stuff and not damage so I'm assuming the actual code that deals damage to enemies once per attack is somewhere else. To get around this issue I'm just going to move the current code in OnTriggerEnter2D into its own function and have both OnTriggerEnter2D and OnTriggerStay2D call that function instead of OnTriggerStay2D calling OnTriggerEnter2D.

Hey, guys! I'm completely new to this Hollow Knight modding thing. In fact, I'm not a mod developer, I'm a translator and I want to translate Hollow Knight into my native language. For some games, translating can be as simple as going into the installation folder, finding the localization files and going to town. When I did the official translation for Black Mesa, the developers even sent me the string files and then took care of putting the string in-game once I translated them (that was nice).
For Hollow Knight, things are not quite so simple - the game files are packed in Unity's .assets files. I was wondering if you guys could help me and point me in a general direction of what I'd need to do to unpack localization files from Hollow Knight and then put them back in after I'm done with them. Links to any tools or documentation would be much appreciated!

leaden hedge Jan 29, 2021, 6:50 PM

#

UABE can extract them from resources.asset

#

they are like EN_<something>.txt

#

you can make a mod that does a dictionary lookup so you don't need to replace files

#

UABE can also repack, but you'd have to overwrite a language

mystic folio Jan 29, 2021, 6:53 PM

#

leaden hedge you can make a mod that does a dictionary lookup so you don't need to replace fi...

That would be a great solution. Much more elegant than having the user paste the modified asset bank over the original files. Can you give me any guidance on that?

leaden hedge Jan 29, 2021, 6:53 PM

#

so theres a hook called LanguageGet

#

that has a key to lookup

#

and you can just return a different string for each key

#

the mod should be pretty simple assuming your language uses latin characters, just because of fonts

public class Translate : Mod
{
  public Dictionary<string, Dictionary<string,string>> transData

  public Translate()
  { 
    transData = new Dictionary<string, Dictionary<string,string>>();
    //load transData from a file or hardcode it here
    transData["sheetTitle"] = new Dictonary<string, string>();
    transData["sheetTitle"]["aKeyToBeReplaced"] = "translated line";
    //etc
    ModHooks.Instance.LanguageGetHook += Instance_LanguageGetHook;
  }

  private string Instance_LanguageGetHook(string key, string sheetTitle)
  {
    return transData[sheetTitle][key];
  }
}

#

sheetTitles are things like ui/npc dialogue/boss name etc

#

keys are the actual id of the string to be replaced

#

if you need any guidance on building a mod, https://radiance.host/apidocs/Getting-Started.html#creating-mods

mystic folio Jan 29, 2021, 7:05 PM

#

My language does use latin characters so font hopefully won't be an issue (unless Hollow Knight's font turns out to have issues with accented characters like é, í, č, ř, etc.)

leaden hedge Jan 29, 2021, 7:05 PM

#

if they are included in other langauges in game, it should be ok

#

            foreach (string text in Language.settings.sheetTitles)
            {
                Language.currentEntrySheets[text] = new Dictionary<string, string>();
                string languageFileContents = Language.GetLanguageFileContents(text);
                if (languageFileContents != string.Empty)
                {
                    using (XmlReader xmlReader = XmlReader.Create(new StringReader(languageFileContents)))
                    {
                        while (xmlReader.ReadToFollowing("entry"))
                        {
                            xmlReader.MoveToFirstAttribute();
                            string value = xmlReader.Value;
                            xmlReader.MoveToElement();
                            string text2 = xmlReader.ReadElementContentAsString().Trim();
                            text2 = text2.UnescapeXML();
                            Language.currentEntrySheets[text][value] = text2;
                        }
                    }
                }
            }

is the function the game uses to load the xml files for localization data, so if you keep the format the same, you can use that to load them in

#

just sheetTitles are hardcoded

mystic folio Jan 29, 2021, 7:42 PM

#

I just realized the "Poor Translation" mod includes all the original text assets as well 🤦‍♂️

#

They're nicely formatted, too

#

Now I need UABE only to find the asset ID (I think)

leaden hedge Jan 29, 2021, 7:49 PM

#

you won't need the asset ID

#

if you look at EN_UI
the sheetTitle should be UI and the keys are stuff like CHARM_DESC_39, INV_DESC_HEARTPIECE_NONE etc

#

EN_sheetTitle and <entry name="key">

i mean the difficulty of iterating over a folder directory so translators can give people one file to translate, is probably easier than getting translators to understand how to avoid merge conflicts in one big file and to care about using git

So, quick question; why does the Mod class overwrite the SaveSettings property with a new instance when the scene is changed to the main menu? It took me a bit to track down exactly why a pre-filled list in my settings class was turning out to be empty :P

copper nacelle Jan 30, 2021, 8:28 PM

#

before it just stayed at the old value and then you'd load one save and quit out and load another and it would result in the values staying anyways if the save didn't have something overwriting it

#

like if you loaded a save and then went to another you'd just keep your settings and so you'd end up just hooking the scene change for the main menu to reset the settings so that doesn't happen

#

which isn't something you want in every mod

#

if it's prefilled then you just set it on field init or in the constructor and it should work fine

prime urchin Jan 30, 2021, 8:36 PM

#

Ah, that makes sense. Yeah, the problem is I was initializing global settings or save settings based on a value and the settings class itself doesn't know whether its a save or global settings - I ended up just making the default constructor assume that it was for save settings.

#

Is it a known issue that if I make a custom charm using the charm helper, equip it, save and reload the game that the charm notch calculator won't take my custom charm into account when displaying how many notches I've used?

#

Also, what are the sizes of charms supposed to be art wise?

mystic umbra Feb 1, 2021, 1:06 AM

#

mystic umbra Is it a known issue that if I make a custom charm using the charm helper, equip ...

It looks like the linked issue has to do with my equipped settings not getting saved between loads of the save so I must be doing the actual saving wrong somehow

the enemies are already in the scene, though i have no idea when specifically the hook is called

The reskinning itself should be replacing their texture with a recolored/skinned version of the ripped spritesheet right?

For mods that work with randomizer: I'm trying to get a good way to see if a user has started a new game (as opposed to loading a save). I've had a few "eh" solutions to this, but I'm finally looking at the SceneManager.activeSceneChanged hook.

Do y'all think that it would be enough to look for a transition Menu_Title to Tutorial_01. I can't think of a case where this would be able to come up except for a new game.

copper nacelle Feb 2, 2021, 1:35 AM

#

no

#

make a new save

#

die to tiktik

#

quit out

#

open save

#

there's a NewGameHook for non-rando saves, and you can do On.GameManager.StartNewGame for both rando and non-rando saves

nocturne meteor Feb 2, 2021, 2:24 AM

#

Ah, that's fair. I guess it would get messed up on my tracker if they got the fury item then died which, I think, brings them back to tutorial_01.

#

I didn't know that there was a On.GameManager.StartNewGame hook, so lemme try that out, that's exactly what I need.

nocturne meteor Feb 2, 2021, 3:04 AM

#

Alright, I tried the following:

public void HandleStartNewGame(On.GameManager.orig_StartNewGame orig, GameManager self, bool permadeathMode, bool bossRushMode)
        {
            orig(self, permadeathMode, bossRushMode);
            Send(MakeEvent("game_level_event", "game_level_event", "new_game"));
        }

But it kept freezing the game at the screen right after the rando new game screen (where you pick stuff) and never got to the Tutorial_01 screen. If I swap the order, it'll give me an error since I'm trying to read the spoiler log which isn't created yet (or is being created, I guess).

I can't think of a way to make this nicer (putting a "sleep" command didn't help much), so if anyone has any ideas, lemme know. I think it might be okay to use the scene transition thing since the edge case for that is so niche that I don't think it'll come up for rando players much --- and if it does, it will only affect the tracker if they check Fury and then die, and only then if it has an "important" item ---

steady comet Feb 2, 2021, 3:08 AM

#

the edge case for that is so niche
If they quit to menu and then return to the game while their bench is KP, then that will also count

nocturne meteor Feb 2, 2021, 3:08 AM

#

That also goes to Tutorial_01?

steady comet Feb 2, 2021, 3:09 AM

#

Tutorial_01 is King's Pass, so if their bench is there I assume that that's where it sends you tamershrug

nocturne meteor Feb 2, 2021, 3:09 AM

#

Oh, like, if they never pick up another bench or something?

steady comet Feb 2, 2021, 3:09 AM

#

yeah - but also you can benchwarp to King's Pass

#

(Even though there isn't an actual bench there)

nocturne meteor Feb 2, 2021, 3:09 AM

#

Ohh. I understand.

#

Ugh, okay, I COULD combine this with one other event which is like "firstTimeSeeingCutscene" or something, but yeah, point taken. It's a hack, to be sure. Lemme see what errors I'm getting when I get a frozen screen for the HandleStartNewGame, since that's the ideal hook for me to use.

#

openingCreditsPlayed is what I was thinking of in the previous thing; it seems to only play on the New Game start. Still, a gross hack.

leaden hedge Feb 2, 2021, 3:30 AM

#

make a coroutine and wait in that

#

yield return null;
waits a frame

#

put it in a while until the game is in the state you want

#

a sleep doesn't allow other parts of the game to advance, it just pauses the entire game

nocturne meteor Feb 2, 2021, 3:34 AM

#

Ah, okay, that makes sense since that's exactly what happened. Okay, I'm gonna haft'a read up on coroutines. But the gist would be: make a coroutine that waits for some event from a hook and then does the stuff I want?

leaden hedge Feb 2, 2021, 3:35 AM

#

not a hook, or you could just hook that event

#

but you can check a variable every frame

nocturne meteor Feb 2, 2021, 3:36 AM

#

Got'cha. Okay, I'll mess around with this and see where I can get! Thank you!

leaden hedge Feb 2, 2021, 3:39 AM

#

you need a monobehaviour and gameobject to run them on

worn eagle Feb 2, 2021, 5:49 AM

#

so I'm trying to make PV not hud out on death using Vasi, is there any way to do this with reflection?

#

their corpse is tied to a corpsePrefab field in EnemyDeathEffects, but I can't seem to get it working with the following code:

#

GameObject corpsePrefab = Mirror.GetField<EnemyDeathEffects, GameObject>(
                GetComponent<EnemyDeathEffectsUninfected>(), 
                "corpsePrefab");
corpsePrefab.LocateMyFSM("corpse").GetState("Music").RemoveAction<SendEventByName>();
Mirror.SetField<EnemyDeathEffects, GameObject>(
                GetComponent<EnemyDeathEffectsUninfected>(), 
                "corpsePrefab", 
                corpsePrefab);

#

this would also help me make WD not teleport the player to the waterways after dying

Thanks! I was actually able to get the correct proportions from #art-discussion since they had the actual sprite sheets for the charms

#

Now I just need to get a good idea for the charm art since my previous ideas turned out to either be too busy or looked terrible

modest glacier Feb 2, 2021, 7:32 AM

#

What charm are you making?

mystic umbra Feb 2, 2021, 7:32 AM

#

Let me give you the fancy in lore description of it

#

Title: Weaver Whetstone
Description: A whetstone used by a merciful Weaver whose opponents often left with their lives, but never with their geo. \n\nThe bearer's nail will deal less damage, but they will gain geo with every slash.

#

All the code is done, I just need to make the art for it

#

It was my first mod so I made it as simple as possible. I've already got an idea for my second charm which will be a bit more in depth

modest glacier Feb 2, 2021, 7:33 AM

#

Maybe something with Geo and six eyes?

mystic umbra Feb 2, 2021, 7:35 AM

#

That's what I was thinking as well. My initial idea was to make a whetstone in the shape of the geo symbol and put the Weaversong eyes onto it. Doing this though didn't really work. The proportions of the geo symbol don't work too well with the positioning of the eyes. Simplifying it made it look too much like Weaversong too

modest glacier Feb 2, 2021, 7:36 AM

#

You could use the geo that is 5 geo worth

mystic umbra Feb 2, 2021, 7:37 AM

#

Potentially, this is the image used on the wiki https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/391435697581457408/806054153381609512/unknown.png

#

Maybe I could do the whetstone idea and have two copies of each geo symbol ascending from the bottom to about halfway up the whetstone. Then in the center have nail

hexed violet Feb 2, 2021, 7:39 AM

#

im actually kinda interested in doing the art..

mystic umbra Feb 2, 2021, 7:42 AM

#

Maybe something like this except not terrible looking. There is a lot of deadspace at the top though. I was also thinking of giving the geo and nail an etched look so it seemed like they were etched into the whetstone

#

📎 unknown.png

#

The Weaver symbolism is kind of subtle here. There are six geo symbols mirrored down the center

#

I also had an idea at one point to do a money eyes kind of thing where the geo symbol was masked in the shape of weaver eyes, but that just looked super weird and didn't read well

#

The only other Weaver symbolism really used is the thread and silk spools, but silksong uses that a lot so I don't know if I want to retread that
