The CHESaveSettings class(assuming it’s copied from the charm helper example)

#

Ok

#

Hmm

#

Everything looks right

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 2:32 PM

#

then why is it broken grubthink

#

lemme see modlog

vocal spire Mar 23, 2021, 2:33 PM

Are there any errors in the modlog

thats all thats relevant

Can you show the entire initialize method

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 2:35 PM

#

public override void Initialize()
        {
            Log("Initializing");
            Instance = this;
            charmHelper = new CharmHelper();
            charmHelper.customCharms = 4;
            charmHelper.customSprites = new Sprite[] { ts.Get(TextureStrings.Charm1), new Sprite(), new Sprite(), new Sprite() };

            Log("Initialized");
        }
``` (sorry for the mess)

vocal spire Mar 23, 2021, 2:36 PM

#

What is ts

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 2:36 PM

#

public void MoreHealing()
        {
            ts = new TextureStrings();
        }

vocal spire Mar 23, 2021, 2:37 PM

#

Are you sure that ts isn’t null when calling it’s Get method?

#

It doesn’t look like it’s set anywhere in initialize

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 2:37 PM

            initCallbacks();

            Log("Initialized");
        }

#

oh it needs to be in initialize?

vocal spire Mar 23, 2021, 2:38 PM

#

When are you calling the MoreHealing method

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 2:38 PM

#

ehm

#

shat

#

nowhere

vocal spire Mar 23, 2021, 2:39 PM

#

cedar hemlock oh it needs to be in initialize?

Well it needs to either occur in initialize before using it, or before initialize

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 2:39 PM

#

i will look at the thing i copied

vocal spire Mar 23, 2021, 2:39 PM

#

Also I don’t see why you can’t just initialize it where you define it

#

Which would solve the issue

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 2:39 PM

#

yeah

#

ok that fixed it, but its at lightlevel 0

#

why is it so dull

#

#

i only made it blue

#

and its dark

#

futher it seems to work

nimble lake Mar 23, 2021, 2:46 PM

Where can I find the variable to change carefree melody's chances?

jolly oriole Mar 23, 2021, 2:48 PM

those are hardcoded

nimble lake Mar 23, 2021, 2:48 PM

#

ah damn.

jolly oriole Mar 23, 2021, 2:48 PM

#

afaik in HeroController.TakeDamage

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 2:59 PM

#

ok so how do i make my charms pickup-abble

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 3:08 PM

#

vocal spire Also I don’t see why you can’t just initialize it where you define it

sooooo, back to the multiple enemy re-texture, how do i tell the game to use 1 texture for thk and a different texture for an enemy

#

you talked about the dictionary thing you gave me

#

but that only contains the name

#

huh

deep wave Mar 23, 2021, 3:21 PM

not even live palehmm

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 3:21 PM

what does GetCurrentSpriteDef do?

vocal spire Mar 23, 2021, 3:36 PM

#

Huh

vocal spire Mar 23, 2021, 3:36 PM

#

cedar hemlock what does `GetCurrentSpriteDef` do?

Gets the current sprite definition the tk2d sprite is displaying

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 3:37 PM

#

so how do i say it i want do load a image

#

that i selected

vocal spire Mar 23, 2021, 3:37 PM

#

cedar hemlock sooooo, back to the multiple enemy re-texture, how do i tell the game to use 1 t...

I think either 1 you should make a dictionary<string, texture> and use the texture corresponding to enemy names or 2 you should make a switch when setting the texture depending on the enemy name

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 3:38 PM

#

is 1 better?

#

if yes how do i do it

vocal spire Mar 23, 2021, 3:38 PM

#

I think so

#

Define a
public Dictionary<string, Texture> EnemyTextures = new Dictionary<string, Texture>();
somewhere

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 3:41 PM

#

ok what do i fill in?

vocal spire Mar 23, 2021, 3:41 PM

#

?

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 3:41 PM

#

i just place it there and then

vocal spire Mar 23, 2021, 3:41 PM

#

Oh

#

Give me the code where you set the texture

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 3:42 PM

#

private IEnumerator SetSprite(Scene arg1)
        {
            Log("Setting sprites");
            var boss = arg1.Find(Bossscene[arg1.name]);
            boss.GetComponent<tk2dSprite>().GetCurrentSpriteDef().material.mainTexture = _tex;
            //.GetComponent<tk2dSprite>().GetCurrentSpriteDef().material.mainTexture = this._tex;
            yield return null;
        }
``` ?

vocal spire Mar 23, 2021, 3:43 PM

#

private IEnumerator SetSprite(Scene arg1)
        {
            Log("Setting sprites");
            var boss = arg1.Find(Bossscene[arg1.name]);
            boss.GetComponent<tk2dSprite>().GetCurrentSpriteDef().material.mainTexture = EnemyTextures[boss.name];
            yield return null;
        }

#

You’ll need to change the EnemyTextures part depending on where you define EnemyTextures

#

Or if you changed the name

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 3:45 PM

#

soo

#

new Dictionary<string, Texture>(); is what i need to change

vocal spire Mar 23, 2021, 3:46 PM

#

No

vocal spire Mar 23, 2021, 3:46 PM

#

vocal spire ``` private IEnumerator SetSprite(Scene arg1) { Log("Setting...

I meant the part in this code

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 3:47 PM

#

wdym with "change the EnemyTextures part"

vocal spire Mar 23, 2021, 3:47 PM

#

The part

#

In the code I replied to

#

That says EnemyTextures

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 3:48 PM

#

what do i need to change it to

vocal spire Mar 23, 2021, 3:48 PM

#

Well idk, I said it depends on if you changed where you define EnemyTextures, and if you changed the name of it

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 3:49 PM

#

i defined it in the class

#

 public class TransMod : Mod
    {
            public Dictionary<string, Texture> EnemyTextures = new     Dictionary<string, Texture>();
    }

vocal spire Mar 23, 2021, 3:49 PM

#

Ok

#

Then are there any compiler errors?

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 3:49 PM

#

nope

vocal spire Mar 23, 2021, 3:50 PM

#

Ok

#

Now in initialize, show where you set the texture for thk

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 3:50 PM

#

Assembly asm = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();

           
                
                foreach (string res in asm.GetManifestResourceNames())
                {
                    Log("GetManifestRescourceNames");
                    using (Stream s = asm.GetManifestResourceStream(res))
                    {
                        if (s == null) continue;

                        byte[] buffer = new byte[s.Length];
                        s.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);

                        _tex = new Texture2D(2, 2);

                        _tex.LoadImage(buffer, true);
                    }
                }

#

brb

vocal spire Mar 23, 2021, 3:55 PM

#

Now this probably isn’t the best way, but add after calling the LoadImage method


if (res.Contains(“png file name for thk”))
    EnemyTextures.Add(“Hollow Knight Boss”, _tex);
else if(res.Contains(“png name for something else”)
    EnemyTextures.Add(“Name of this enemy”, _tex);
else if(res.Contains(“yet another png name for an enemy”)
    EnemyTextures.Add(“another enemy name”, _tex);

And so on

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 4:01 PM

#

back

#

at png file name for thk do i need to add the .png

#

prob yes

#

bruh why does moble have different ""

#

87 errors

#

and you forgot 2 )'s

#

lets see how bad this goes

#

ehm

#

shat

#

all the textures are dark

#

what did i do wrong

#

anyone know?

nimble lake Mar 23, 2021, 4:40 PM

#

why is there no spell2prefab?

#

for shade soul instead of vengeful spirit

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 4:41 PM

#

its named different
its the same but black maybe its changed it code

#

however

#

idk

#

so when i add something to my project it becomes terribly dark

#

did i do something wrong??

vocal spire Mar 23, 2021, 5:18 PM

#

cedar hemlock all the textures are dark

Everything is black boxes or the sprites are black?

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 5:18 PM

they are dark

just dim

Try replacing the dark file with a non dark file, and don’t open the file in vs? Tmk vs can edit images

sadly i gtg now

cedar hemlock Mar 23, 2021, 5:23 PM

vocal spire Try replacing the dark file with a non dark file, and don’t open the file in vs?...

i never opened it

before using in-game

I know my particular requirements are a little out of the ordinary, but I'd still appreciate some input from y'all. Reminder: I have a mod referencing LibraryA which uses Newtonsoft. LIbraryA should not, and can not, depend on Assembly-CSharp. It must remain game agnostic. With this in mind, it seems to me my best options are: 1.) Unbundle Newtonsoft from ModdingAPI and put the DLL in the Managed folder; or 2.) Bundle my own Newtonsoft into LIbraryA.

I was hoping for some insight from you fine folks as to why Newtonsoft was bundled into ModdingAPI to begin with. If it was to solve a specific problem that would make sense. If it's just to provide modder's convenience then I'd be willing to put up the work to de-couple those and PR the change. (As well as test a few popular mods to make sure nothing broke, although this may be moot with 1.5 around the corner.)

#

I don't want to crash into an ecosystem and start demanding it conform to me, so RFC is open. Thanks in advance.

copper nacelle Mar 23, 2021, 11:45 PM

#

it's decoupled in 1.5

#

it's just merged for convenience of distribution rn

stone elm Mar 23, 2021, 11:46 PM

#

!! Okay, that works perfectly fine for me. Thanks for the update @copper nacelle!

stone elm Mar 24, 2021, 12:32 AM

#

Is there anything I need to do to enable building the Modding.API solution with C# 9? VS insists it can't update the language version due to the solution being fx4.7.2.

#

Might just need to update VS... Trying that.

copper nacelle Mar 24, 2021, 12:37 AM

#

shouldn't be anything afaik

stone elm Mar 24, 2021, 12:51 AM

#

Yeah, just needed to update VS so it recognized C# 9. That's how out of date I was. :/

#

The next issue to present itself is the lack of a Deconstruct() on KeyValuePair<>. Which makes sense as that method doesn't exist in 4.7.2. How have you managed to build this? 😅

copper nacelle Mar 24, 2021, 1:03 AM

#

net standard 2

stone elm Mar 24, 2021, 1:07 AM

#

VS disagrees but that's my problem. I'm giving it a break for tonight, thanks for your help

copper nacelle Mar 24, 2021, 1:08 AM

#

do you have the reference?

#

It's bundled in 1.5's managed folder

#

So it's not going to work at all without that

stone elm Mar 24, 2021, 1:09 AM

#

Which reference? netstandard.dll?

copper nacelle Mar 24, 2021, 1:09 AM

#

Yeah

#

That and mscorlib I think are the ones

#

I don't remember which one had deconstruct

stone elm Mar 24, 2021, 1:10 AM

#

I didn't have it before, but that did it.

#

I was wondering how you got netstandard2 stuff without a reference or targeting netstandard haha.

#

Got it compiling. Your help is super appreciated. pogtamer

Hi, I'm experimenting with FSM and have this error:

TypeLoadException: Could not load type 'System.Func`1' from assembly 'mscorlib, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'.

It's related to inserting a coroutine into a state. Commenting out the line (not the method) and it does fine.

PlayMakerFSM control = ...;
control.CopyState("Foo", "Bar");
IEnumerator routine() {
    Log("...");
    yield break;
}
// Error occurs here.
control.InsertCoroutine("Bar", 0, routine);

I'm targeting net35. Am I missing a reference or something?
Edit 2021-04-03: Add this to your csproj: <PackageReference Include="jnm2.ReferenceAssemblies.net35" Version="1.0.1" />
https://www.nuget.org/packages/jnm2.ReferenceAssemblies.net35

copper nacelle Mar 24, 2021, 1:27 AM

#

your mscorlib ref looks like net4 ngl

tacit cedar Mar 24, 2021, 1:28 AM

#

That's what I thought, but <TargetFramework>net35</TargetFramework>

#

To be sure, I added a reference to mscorlib.dll in HK's Managed directory, which is 2.0.0.0. Still the same error

stone elm Mar 24, 2021, 1:49 AM

#

What DLL am I looking for when it comes to the output of the Modding.API sln? It seems like the output Assembly-CSharp-patched.dll is supposed to be packed with Assembly-CSharp.mm.dll but I don't think that's happening. I don't see a post-build to do the pack. Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but either way I'm not seeing a DLL with the Modding namespace popping out except for Assembly-CSharp.mm.dll.

stone elm Mar 24, 2021, 1:50 AM

#

tacit cedar That's what I thought, but `<TargetFramework>net35</TargetFramework>`

Are you referencing anything else that might then reference the higher framework level?

tacit cedar Mar 24, 2021, 1:51 AM

#

stone elm Are you referencing anything else that might then reference the higher framework...

I'm only referencing Unity DLLs, and ModCommon

copper nacelle Mar 24, 2021, 1:54 AM

#

build in release

#

or get the dll called MONOMODDED_Assembly-CSharp

#

Release makes a zip and moves the dll to an output folder

stone elm Mar 24, 2021, 1:55 AM

#

That DLL didn't exist in the debug out but does in the release out. 🤔

copper nacelle Mar 24, 2021, 1:55 AM

#

questionable

#

release literally copies it

stone elm Mar 24, 2021, 1:56 AM

#

Probably me messing something up, it's my first assumption. But I calls it as I sees it.

#

Although the release build pushes me further so thanks!

Looks like SerializableStringDictionary (and associates) were removed in ModdingAPI for 1.5. Is there a suggested alternative?

cedar hemlock is there a way to make my (custom) charm pickupable?

Instantiate a pickupable item preload and edit the fsm to either 1. Make it a charm and change the charm number to your custom charm, or 2. Just change the charm number. Might also need to change some sprites if it doesn’t take from the charm sprite list

Feature request for future ModInstaller/ModInstaller2 updates:

A button to to "Open Mods Folder"

There seems to be a fair number of people who struggle with getting to their mods folder, or who accidentally go to a different one that what the installer is seeing/using; in MI2s case, there also isn't Manual Install nor does the Installer add manually installed mods to its list. This would not only help with those (and thus troubleshooting), but also just serve as a convenience for people that don't have a shortcut to the folder already saved.
(Edit: I can delete this from here and repost in #modding-discussion if you want. I wasn't sure which place to put it if it pertained to the installer-itself)

Hey I've started reading the docs but there are things I'm still in the blur with, i have some questions.
In place should I be loading the asset bundles, my initialize?
what is the proper way to load an instance of an enemy into the game?
if I create a custom scene for a new room, how do I put enemies in it? should I do it just by placing the prefab in the unity scene or should I go through code ?

paper valve Hey I've started reading the docs but there are things I'm still in the blur wit...

i do it in initialize, but you may want to load it at another point, if the assetbundles are really massive (looking at pale court)
preload it using the preloadnames thing, then instantiate it once you know it has to exist (i once did it in a UnityEngine.SceneManagement.SceneManager.OnActiveSceneChanged hook)
i do that by having a custom script in an assembly specifically for the unity editor, where i specify the enemy i want to place (from a self-managed set of preloaded enemies)

paper valve Mar 25, 2021, 7:55 AM

#

:o thank you

#

that brings me another small question, how do I preload an enemy that is not from one of my assets bundles, but one that is from the real game

jolly oriole Mar 25, 2021, 7:57 AM

#

warped hollow is it possible to create a static camera, or is fixed to the player wherever he ...

Yes to both

copper nacelle Mar 25, 2021, 10:15 PM

#

there's an option in debug to do the latter already

#

but yeah you can do either

warped hollow Mar 25, 2021, 10:18 PM

#

has anyone done a mod where you can move the knight and not have the camera follow you?

vocal spire Mar 25, 2021, 10:19 PM

#

I don’t think so, but it should be easy

warped hollow Mar 25, 2021, 10:20 PM

#

how? i wish i could make a it toggle on/off , but i have no idea where to search for it, or how to make the proper mod

vocal spire Mar 25, 2021, 10:21 PM

#

I’d guess either 1. Setting the camera’s position to the same thing every frame or 2. Stop the camera from following anything

#

Also you might want to edit some more stuff because tmk the little light around the knight farther out looks like a black square

Just use one of the mod installers

hello hi me again

#

new dumb question

#

what do i do to know the exact names of the objects i want to preload from a scene

copper nacelle Mar 26, 2021, 7:05 PM

#

you check a scene dump or the fsm viewer or whatever

jolly oriole Mar 26, 2021, 7:05 PM

#

use either <#archived-modding-development message> or an alternative method of looking up gameobjects (hkworldedit2 for example)

paper valve Mar 26, 2021, 7:07 PM

#

ive tried using fsm viewer but apparently im quite dumb at understanding name

#

#

😅

#

i am not very clever i think

copper nacelle Mar 26, 2021, 7:08 PM

#

check the scene dump it's probably a child

#

or spawned off something if not a child

jolly oriole Mar 26, 2021, 7:08 PM

#

then go into the linked gameobject dump and search for lost kin in the specific scene, probably is under other gameobjects and may or may not look like

("Dream_03_Infected_Knight", "Boss Scene/Lost Kin")

or something similar

paper valve Mar 26, 2021, 7:09 PM

ooooh

ill try that then !

thanks you two

ok idk why but loaded it aain and now its working

paper valve Mar 26, 2021, 10:57 PM

#

i now have my custom enemy existing but

#

i put it on enemies layer

#

i make it move changing its velocity

#

and hes getting through walls

#

no clue why

#

should i not move it by changing its rb velocity ?

#

or is it something else that i probalby forgot to do

#

#

jolly oriole Mar 26, 2021, 11:05 PM

#

if you're actually instantiating/preloading lost kin, you don't need to change layer

#

though enemies should collide with terrain

paper valve Mar 26, 2021, 11:06 PM

#

i was loading lost kin only to use its health and infected effect components

#

thats what they did in the uuh enemy tutorial from the docs

#

so i did the same for now

jolly oriole Mar 26, 2021, 11:08 PM

#

i mean, it should not phase through the wall

#

unless either the part with the hitbox doesn't care if it's at a wall or if the layers don't interact with each other

paper valve Mar 26, 2021, 11:09 PM

#

the hitbox works to hit my character and i can hit the enemy i have no clue why walls arent colliding to it

jolly oriole Mar 26, 2021, 11:10 PM

#

put another, non trigger collider beneath it

paper valve Mar 26, 2021, 11:11 PM

oooh

the non trigger collider adds nothing, still getting through walls and ground :/

you mean, like transform.position.z?

paper valve Mar 27, 2021, 1:55 PM

yup

glass thorn Mar 27, 2021, 2:02 PM

#

that worked - set its z to be the same as the jar itself

#

though now it shows up in front of the jar

paper valve Mar 27, 2021, 2:03 PM

#

make the grub z value slightly greater than the jars one

glass thorn Mar 27, 2021, 2:06 PM

#

what's weird is according to scene dumps they have exactly the same z

#

(both 0)

#

how would I change that? (my unity knowledge is limited)

#

I came up with another solution: make the jar have a lower z than the grub instead of the other way round

paper valve Mar 27, 2021, 2:23 PM

👍

glass thorn Mar 27, 2021, 2:33 PM

however this still happens (even if I lower the grub and jar's Z a bit)

What did you just type

You have somehow combined the code in GetPreloads and Initialize

im tryin to translate

#

no what i wrote is something else lol

vocal spire Mar 27, 2021, 4:35 PM

So you don’t need to do the adding stuff

cedar hemlock Mar 27, 2021, 4:36 PM

#

not?

vocal spire Mar 27, 2021, 4:36 PM

#

Basically PreloadedGo is a Dictionary<string, GameObjrct>

#

People tend to use dictionaries if they have multiple preloads

vocal spire Mar 27, 2021, 4:37 PM

#

cedar hemlock im tryin to translate `preloadedGO.Add("hornet", preloadedObjects["GG_Hornet_2"...

“hornet” can be whatever, but the other part corresponds to stuff you put in GetPreloads

vocal spire Mar 27, 2021, 4:38 PM

#

vocal spire So you don’t *need* to do the adding stuff

Instead of doing this though, you could just set a GameObject variable instead to keep the reference

cedar hemlock so i add?

Add SFCore or modcommon if you want to easily edit fsms

cedar hemlock Mar 27, 2021, 5:12 PM

#

i already have them

#

i need them for the other stuff

vocal spire Mar 27, 2021, 5:12 PM

#

Ok

cedar hemlock Mar 27, 2021, 5:12 PM

#

do i need to look at the fsm?

vocal spire Mar 27, 2021, 5:13 PM

#

Well, edit the variable in the fsm for what charm it is(forgot what variable) to the one for your custom charm when you place it

vocal spire Mar 27, 2021, 5:13 PM

#

cedar hemlock do i need to *look* at the fsm?

Ofc

jolly oriole Mar 27, 2021, 5:13 PM

#

get fsm
get fsm variables
change Charm ID int variable to your custom charm id
change Charm bool variable to true
done

vocal spire Mar 27, 2021, 5:13 PM

#

Or follow that

jolly oriole Mar 27, 2021, 5:13 PM

not a single bit of the fsm util needed

cedar hemlock Mar 27, 2021, 5:14 PM

#

ok so what is it called

#

the fsm

vocal spire Mar 27, 2021, 5:14 PM

#

Grenade gave the instructions so you don’t need to look at it

#

But for the future I suggest always looking at fsms

#

Also look at the GameObject dump for the names of fsms

cedar hemlock Mar 27, 2021, 5:15 PM

#

get fsm

how

vocal spire Mar 27, 2021, 5:15 PM

#

In fsm viewer you can also enter the GameObject name to find fsms

hai. Im trying to do some FSM stuff as well but in 1221 specifically ((un)expected version differences peepoArrive ). This is Uumuu's control FSM in the avalonia fsm viewer along with others, just for help determining the naming format.
Is this <gameobject>-<fsm>?

jolly oriole Mar 27, 2021, 6:57 PM

#

yes

vocal spire Mar 27, 2021, 6:57 PM

#

cedar hemlock It was in data

No, I’m saying in fsm viewer what did you click to get to the file explorer menu

#

There is another option that just lets you choose the scenes by name

cedar hemlock Mar 27, 2021, 6:58 PM

#

oh i just clicked the upper button

vocal spire Mar 27, 2021, 7:01 PM

#

Look at the one that says scene

cedar hemlock Mar 27, 2021, 7:01 PM

#

ok

potent dirge Mar 27, 2021, 7:03 PM

#

So this should in theory work when _coro is a static NonBouncer? ax2uHmm

private static void StartUumuuCoro(Scene scene, LoadSceneMode lsm)
{
  //Console.AddLine("Uumuu test: " + scene.name);
  if (scene.name == "Fungus3_archive_02")
  {
    Console.AddLine(_coro.ToString());
    _coro.StartCoroutine(UumuuExtraCoro());
  }
}


Console.AddLine("Uumuu coro check");
// Find Uumuu and the FSM
GameObject uumuu = GameObject.Find("Mega Jellyfish");

Console.AddLine("Uumuu coro mid pls work");
if (uumuu == null)
    yield break;

Console.AddLine("aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa");
PlayMakerFSM fsm = uumuu.LocateMyFSM("Mega Jellyfish");
fsm.GetState("Idle").GetAction<WaitRandom>().timeMax = 1.7f;```

#

(pretend braces exist and not a million shitty console things. I just like seeing them in-game bc it helps me ax2uWide3 )

vocal spire Mar 27, 2021, 7:03 PM

#

I’d think so

#

What is Console

potent dirge Mar 27, 2021, 7:05 PM

#

its just the old debug way to show stuff in the in-game debug console

vocal spire Mar 27, 2021, 7:05 PM

Ah

potent dirge Mar 27, 2021, 7:06 PM

backporting the api properly is effort 🥴

@vocal spire hey im trying to use frogcore to create a journal entry but i dont think i am understanding everything, which part makes it so it knows which enemy has to be killed in order to actualize the kill count ?

vocal spire Mar 28, 2021, 12:36 PM

#

hello

#

so you know the journalplayerdata you give it?

#

you can do 2 things to make it grant the entry

#

also I suggest getting the updated frogcore from github which has extention methods for one way

#

1st way(I prefer this one, but still use the other way for some more advanced stuff): get the EnemyDeathEffects component of an enemy and use the SetJournalEntry method with the JournalHelper you initialize as the argument

#

Just realized the GitHub doesn’t have the most recent ver either

#

I really need to update it

#

📎 FrogCore.dll

paper valve Mar 28, 2021, 12:42 PM

#

lol

#

ty

#

im gonna look into that 👀

#

i think my problem was that my custom enemy didnt have a enemydeatheffect

vocal spire Mar 28, 2021, 12:43 PM

#

2nd way is setting the variables in the journalPlayerdata for it, but the other way is better bc it shows the little notification in the bottom left

vocal spire Mar 28, 2021, 12:44 PM

#

paper valve i think my problem was that my custom enemy didnt have a enemydeatheffect

Oh, there’s another way to 1 that I didn’t explain

paper valve Mar 28, 2021, 12:44 PM

#

oh ? 👁️

vocal spire Mar 28, 2021, 12:45 PM

#

So hook something(I think HealthManager(instance, this is the HealthManager on your enemy(s)).OnDeath?) and in there call JournalHelper(instance, this is your journal entry that you initialized).RecordJournalEntry

#

And if the ModdingApi was updated to have static reflection fixed, it will also show the notification

#

I don’t like that my pc is decide to be slow

#

It’s reminding me of my other pc

#

Which is the reason I got this pc

ayoooo i shall try this one then 👁️

i have to create one journal helper per enemy right ?

#

#

Also is there a way to decide where it will placer in the journal ?

vocal spire Mar 28, 2021, 12:54 PM

vocal spire Mar 28, 2021, 12:54 PM

vocal spire Mar 28, 2021, 12:57 PM

56, is there anything special people need to do to get the Mac version working?
I thought that they were just supposed to run the .app, but no one has been able to get it working recently. (It tells them it is damaged)

merry lotus Mar 28, 2021, 6:33 PM

#

This what the last few people have experienced:
#archived-modding-help message

#

They move the files to desktop, then run the app, but it says it's broken

copper nacelle Mar 28, 2021, 6:34 PM

#

Ok so I want to get into the creation of hollow knight mods. Anyone know of any comprehensive tutorials on the creation and other file manipulation oriented details of mod development?

copper nacelle Mar 29, 2021, 3:05 AM

#

apidocs -> video tutorials -> bad modding tutorial has a basic solution overview but you can generally just go through your ide and do a few things
