oh
the green circle I think goes with the Godseeker HUD
(don't know if it properly shows up, I rarely use Godseeker files)
probably, i haven't started a steel soul or godseeker game so a lot of these probably go there
if I want to have the green circled image replace the unfilled circle that's already in place (so that it would be the nonfilled circle even in the normal game), I'd basically need to delete what's circled in purple and put multiple of the green circled assets in their place, right?
although I guess I should probably use something different for the incomplete soul image
maybe i'll just remove the "fight fight fight" for the broken soul (if what I'm saying is even on the right track)
If you're asking about using the godhome hud in a normal game, like Dwarf said there's a mod that lets you use the steelsoul and godhome huds in a normal game.
That's what I was saying here lol
I will check that HUD mod out, I'm just also asking/learning about editing the files and PNGs manually. Was I right about the manual process here?
@ DwarfWoot is the mod you were talking about the ChangeHud mod in Scarab?
Funny thing, it turns out the asset circled in green (and the ones that aren't circled but look similar) isn't used with the normal, steel, or godseeker huds
can someone send the downloads of mod installer 2 and scarab?
why both? You only need scarab. Also its pinned.
so there is some mods that ins't in scarab so im gathering it ex:child of light or redwing

How to use Scarab in Microsoft Store
🔹 First enter the Xbox app and move your mouse over Hollow Knight on the left bar.
🔹 Click the three points then click "Manage".
🔹 Go to the "Files" tab and select "Browse...".
🔹 Click Hollow Knight then Content, click the path bar and copy it.
🔸Run Scarab as admin and when it asks you for the path paste what copied before.
Alternate Method:
🔹 Click on your profile then "Settings"
🔹 Go to "General" tab and select "CHANGE FOLDER"
🔹 Look for a folder where you want to install the game (Preferably inside a folder in your desktop).
🔸 Copy the path bar, then run Scarab as Administrator and when it asks you for the path, paste what copied before.
Scarab path folder needs to have Hollow Knight_Data folder inside

If the above doesn't work, delete the contents of hollow_knight_Data/Managed/Mods and reinstall your mods from Scarab
above didn't work, i dont have any mods installed.
Are you running Scarab as administrator outside of the zip file?
I thought he was saying that the purple circled stuff was used on the hud loading animation, which makes a lot of sense since they all look similar and close to the final hud. The one I circled in green is the one I'm trying to get to replace the purples. I haven't been able to see it even during the load in animation. Also there aren't many of the green circled assets that look very similar to each other, which also makes me think that it's not part of the same animation.
dang that was it lol thanks
wasnt running it as admin
I set the hud to default, steel, and godseeker, but the green circled asset didn't seem to show up in any of them. Godseeker was probably the closest but it still used a different one. I'll test it out a few more times. Maybe it was in the godseeker animation and I missed it
That is a frame of the godseeker loading animation, its just very early, and very fast.
Succesfully replaced the nonfull orb image, here's the before and after. I also changed the full soul image and zipped the custom charms.
anyone know the name of the mod that has ability upgrades? diagonal air dash, double air dash, ddive in different directions etc
i believe fireb0rn had it on in his Lore Master rando

Snailing is just discord culture in general
On that same link
so
ive been trying to figure how to download hollow point (aka the gun mod) but i cant figure it out. can any of yall help?
Looking to start modding Hollow Knight? Here's your guide to get started. It's now easier than ever, and if you have problems, there's a great Discord server with plenty of people who can help you out. HKMP (multiplayer) will be covered in a separate video at a later date.
SCARAB DOWNLOAD: https://github.com/fifty-six/Scarab/releases/latest
MO...
It's called Hollow Point
Lmao

Are you stuck on the “getting scarab” phase
I see "gun mod" I go on autopilot

no i have scarab
Then just search for it and click install
So what about getting hollow point are you confused about
its not there for me
Are you looking normally or using the search bar
search bar
Wait is it Hollow Point or HollowPoint cause idk myself
Then you maybe made an error when writing
Just search for it normally shouldnt be too far down
You typed it wrong then
yeah i just typed it wrong
sorry for wasting yalls time
ik i already asked this but where do i download the grub skin bc i looked on the skin list and there wasnt a dwnload like for the grub
but that link sends you to the hk discord
To a message in the hk discord that has the file
hm.
ive got the mod downloaded and enabled and everything
i cant shoot
i cant switch to the gun
i cant do anything with this
oh and also this thing happened fsr
Hollow Point FAQ
ReadMe: https://github.com/TTacco/Hollow-Point/blob/master/README.md
🔹 Gun doesn't work / HUD is jank
- Hollow Point doesn't work on new saves. Save and quit, then reload the save file.
- Having multiple Gun Class charms equipped can also break the gun.
🔹 I disabled it and now healing doesn't work right
Hollow Point edits how Soul works on a file.
Here are ways to fix it:
<#archived-modding-help message>
🔹Not working with Custom Knight skins!
This is a known issue, and Custom Knight is not considered compatible with HP.
Here's steps that sometimes work for people (but if they don't, then you'll just need to play with the default skin):
- Uninstall/Disable Hollow Point
- Launch the game, and Apply the skin in the Main Menu.
- Open the desired Save File, pause and Apply the skin in the Mods Menu.
- Save and Quit, then close the game.
- Re-enable Hollow Point.
well it doesnt work on old saves as well for me
yeah uh
it doesnt work on old saves
ive disabled custom knight skins
i dont know what to do
same thing happens to me I've tried making a new save with it disabled then loading the save with it enabled and it doesn't work still
I need help with setting up the path for scarab. It used to work, but when I downpatched for speedrunning, and then went back to current patch my mods stopped working.
Reinstalling current patch will not reinstall the modding api, so you need to install a mod with scarab to get the api back
Thanks, that fixed it.
Is there a different mod for pantheon practice?
I had an old version of modsinstaller that had it, was wondering if scarab provided it aswell
godseekerplus, on scarab
Installed it, for some reason the in-game menu isnt appearing
I have satchel installed
i just installed the hollowpoint mod but im softlocked bc for somereason my gun doesn't do a damage and given that vengeful spirit doesn't exist i cant kill the elder baulder at the end does anyone have a fix for the gun?
also i cant focus
i fixed the first problem but i still cant focus
yes you cant focus with hollow point
hi, I have a problem, although it isnt related to mods in any other way than it being a probablle programming error
I recently switched laptops, and I wanted to replay the game, on steel soul. so I logged into the game, I cleared the previous file, pressed the button to make a new save, and there it was the selection of the modes like normal. but then I got... the stuff you normally start the game doing. I mean the window framing, and the britness adjustment. I then realized I had forgotten to switch the v-sync off, and pressed the button to go back, and I was brought to the video settings menu. after tunring that thing off, I went back to the open slot in the saves, pressed the button to move on and... the game started. no asking for the modes. and when the cutscenes ended(I watched all the way through) the HUD was the regular calssic mode.
all my achivments and other saves are still there, and I havent interacted with mods in any way in either laptop for the past year( which by this point means that no save I currently have was affected by them)
k
just beat thk on one of your other files and you'll unlock it again, weird that it showed up the first time though
yeah, that part also confused me.
I need help to open sprite packer so I can start making a custom skin ;-;
I have a link to download
But thats it
Idk what to do
I can only find outdated videos, and the only one I could find that wasnt was very confusing
Oh well I fixed it
Now how do I draw
?tag spritepacker
Spritepacker Info
Spritepacker is used to stitch together hollow knight sprites that are split from something like Game Object Dump (GODump)
Download: https://github.com/magegihk/HollowKnight.SpritePacker/releases/latest
Video Tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFIudBIWI1Y
What is GODUMP
is there any mod for challange with all bosses
i was watching, hes killing boss and teleporting the other one
i just wanna train boss mechanics
Thats P5
Im pretty sure
whats P5
cant i access this thing without dlc
No. But you have it. It's free and automatically added if you own the game
thanks
do you have to have hk on steam to mod it?
Steam/gog/gamepass and ms store are supported for modding
Thank you!
Hey im doing a coop run with item sync
but i dont know how to use that mod
do I have to make a randomized world with all the settings dissabled?
Mostly, yes
- install Rando Vanilla Tracker
- if you want levers, install Rando Levers
- it needs to be a new Rando file
- disable anything you don't want Randomized
- for any connections you use (including levers), check if there is a setting called "define refs", and enable it if so
- make sure that "sync vanilla" is enabled with ItemSync
Request to other #archived-modding-help helpers:
For the next couple of days, if someone has a Scarab error (such as when trying to install a mod, but didn't select "run as administrator"), can you check if they have an error log generated in the Scarab folder, and if so, have them post it (feel free to @ me too)

❗Hollow knight Crashes upon opening, after installing a mod
This glitch can happen for a number of reasons make sure that all the reasons listed listed below don't apply to you.
🔹 Your game patch doesn't match the installer you used.
- Scarab is made for patch 1.5.78+
- Modinstaller 1 & 2 are made for version 1.4.3.2
- there aren't installers for other patches.
🔹 Something didn't install correctly
- Ensure that the installer is not still in a .zip file, and that it's not in your Downloads folder.
- Run the installer as Administrator

Hey, guys, I was looking for the mode installer and I've found that it´s not secure...
Is it... secure to use it?
Any link that you find pinned in this server with 200 000 people is safe, that said since windows or Google or whatever have no idea what it is they will flag it as unsafe

oh bruh we still got some ways to go lo
(That said there have been some report of some weird site asking money to install mods, so you better just get everything from here)
I used Virustotal, a program to analise other programs
Yeah, and in all regards it is doing it’s job fine when flagging scarab
Because the program alters random file on your pc
Because that is what mods do
Alter game files
I just was a little scared, thanks for the confirmation
Even though they are a number of anti virus programs especially back in the days which were just, borderline scams

It's an Item and Transition randomizer

Good morning dear people,
I just saw a interesting map mod in several recent na of speedrunners while I hey where doing room Randos. It showed the interconnection of the rooms and single rooms got highlighted in different colours.
My problem is: I can’t find this mod in scarab (latest version) and also not on GitHub, cause I don’t know it’s Name. The runners called the mod just „map mod“ but there are many out there, and I tried them all, but it seems I hadn’t found the correct one. Any help here?
I ask, cause I want to try the glimmering mod ASAP, but I’m not confident enough to do it without a ingame map
Thank you very much upfront for any advice
You're talking about Rando Map Mod. It doesn't work in The Glimmering Realm
The Map function is completely disabled in TGR
You are encouraged to draw a map / make one as you play

How do i mod to look like this?
i just installed the new version of scarab but i cant install any mods
it keeps giving an error in the middle of downloading
nvm restarting fixed it
Did it generate an error log? If yes please send that
i can't change skins with scarab, i have a few different of them, i go in options, select my skin, click apply and it just stays the default skin
i just updated scarab and updated satchel, i may have fixed it? i didn't try yet lets see
yep, didn't work does anyone know how i can fix this?
Are you applying before or after loading a save?
i tried both
i first tried doing it in the menu and then starting a save
then i tried doing it in the save
Have skins worked before?
on another mod client lol
Are the png files in the correct places?
yeah, the game detects my skins
It can detect folders, but that doesn’t mean the png files are in the correct place
I meant inside those folders
Can you include the path in your screenshot?
its the same path as earlier, just add the folders name "pink2"
There’s no extra folders in the path? (Ex: Skins/Pink2/Pink2)
Try running as an admin
.
Oh ok
Huh, that’s strange, I wish I could help more but I gtg
Same
okay thank for eveything!
i'll try to download more skins to see if it works
it says it's for 1.5xx, does it work for my version?
What is your version?
1.4.3.2
Where did you get the game from?
I'm sorry but I have the pirate game since I don't have money to buy it

Ok 🙂
would there be any problem if i want to try to mod the pirate hk?

Omg...
Hi moderators, i asked for help on this problem already but ppl couldn't help me, maybe you can help me? My skins don't work on scarab on the latest version of the game, i tried many things to make them work like, restarting the game, changing skins in the menu and in game, clicking on the "reload skin" button, tried different skins downloaded new ones, updated the custom knight mod and the satchel mod but non of this could help me, do you have an answer?

so this'll mean my setting get reseted like controls and all?
No
what will it do then?
Custom debug controls would be
Yeah like only the settings from mods
But this deletes mod-memory files
will it affect anything in game for me?
oh so i should make a copy of my skins first right?
and i'll have to reinstall mods after
ck?
Custom knight
It will just delete the settings, wich are created again when entering the game
mhm so it won't affect me good
which on do i have to click on?
global settings right?
Yes
Assuming you followed the first few steps in that post, then yes
i cant type
now it sends it
?
sry
i typed alot and none of them got sent
but now i can
anyways
can somebody help me with scarab?
Tell us your problem and then well know if we can
so what happens is that whenever i try to download a mod it says that a problem has occured and it doest download it
no
the exact message is this:An exception occured while installing or uninstalling Benchwarp.
Did you get the game from xbox app
yes
Run scarab as admin
how?
Right click scarab .exe
which mod let's you crystal dash upwards?
is there by any change a better cheat mode like the debug mod but easier to use? or with more detail like add the exact charms i want or the exact items because my girlfriend started a steel soul save and died so she refuses to do everything again
Skill upgrades
thanks
Save editing using moresaves
is that easier to use tho?
debug isn’t that complicated honestly, moresaves is around the same maybe a little less but more precise
yeah debug isn't that complicated but it doesn't allows me to give every item or spell or skill
could you quickly explain how save editing works?
That is wrong…
It does
Install it on the title screen go options mods moresaves select you save and edit values
not the charms, i can only get every single charm
i just want some of them
Charms are only thing debug can’t specifically give
yeah
You can give yourself specific charms by editing your save file directly
yep thats what hotspring told me to do
Charm IDs can be found in the pins of #modding-discussion
i'll check this in a bit thanks!
do you have the bosses IDs by any chance?
if i killed X boss
but i think i guessed
blocker1 or smth
thats the baldurs right?
There is a doc of enemy names somewhere🤔
yeah where lol
Right here https://docs.google.com/document/d/1PdqGx42h_SgwuQ7Oyko6NdK9w6FcWX6utK7Qep1woTk/edit?usp=sharing

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh idk tbh
actually yk lemme just add that to my #modding-discussion pin
i confused a mod 😎 biggest flex
thanks!
Rocket bad mod 
shut
so I'm starting my first randomizer and uhhh
what is Hash?
and should I be worried?
the base nail damage is 5 right? after one upgrade, how much damage does it do?
5 base
9
13
17
21 pure
thanks!
The hash is basically a way for the randomizer to shorten all your settings into those 4 things. You can enter this hash again when creating another rando file with the same mods on to get the same stuff done there’s else
You need to change some integer somewhere for nail level and change the nail damage to whatever that is
kk i'll try that
or use debug
Debug doesn’t change the actual nail level iirc
umm now the search option doesn't work with the mod amazing
does anyone have stag stations IDs?
what file i need to download to get mods?

Get scarab
I cant pause, it wont show me my geo count and I have no idea what that is in the bottom left corner. I've tried restarting my pc, reinstalling hollow knight. It works fine without mods. So I tried reinstalling all my mods but it still wont work.
What about adding child of light to it? https://github.com/TheodoreChristianRadu/HollowKnight.ChildOfLight
hey! Is there any mod where you can set youre health to 1? I want to try some crazy things out
But I dont mean glassoul or some sort like that. Just set on 1 for fury
Isn’t the one and only change of glassoul to have your hp set to one ?
I guess you could also save edit to get one mask
Oh really? I mean I need it in a godhome file I forgot to mention that sorry
How?
It’s kinda complicated
So there are no specific mods? thats sad... oh well thanks for the help 🙂
But the short version is to install more save
Install it, on the title screen go options mods moresaves select you save and edit values
But glass soul is that…
Na, just not really good to explain without confusing the other person 
ok thanks I need it in a godhome file thats why glass soul wont work
OH! The mod even has backups?!? That literally perfect for what I need thsm lol
Modding staff guys 
Isn’t child of light part of lightbringer now?
I think so 
Wait thats wierd... I set max health and health to 1 I apply and I double check
Then I go to the save file I edited load it and spawn with all masks.
I go back to check the file and now the lives are back to 9...
Oh nvm
Isn't there a fury mod which causes you to always have 1 hp?
But I'm not that sure
furyalwayson or smth
Is there a mod to replay the Path of Pain?
QoL
Waiting on the inevitable Cult of the Lamb skin
🇺
If I delete a safefile and I do the backup the safe file isn't there how can I back it up?
You can use steam cloud and it also has a backup options of you have it in steam
And for more saves just put teh backed up save into the saves folder
Elaborate
You have hkmp pouch?
Yes
What Doe sit say when you try to connect?
you have to fight without getting hit.
It explains it in the read me.
ah

Does anyone know how I would go about transferring my save from pc gamepass to the steam version
do you have any idea how i can fix it?
FYI You cannot recreate a seed with only the hash. You need the profile code as well as any Connections settings.
trying to take off my charms
i cant
they just stay there
all vanilla charms as well, im worried if a mod is somehow causing this issue?
like genuinly wtf is happening lol
i can still use/swap out charms but the icons never move
Adding/removing charms by clicking them from the charm list (instead of from the top row) should work.
This is a recent bug that's still trying to be figured out
does anyone know how to edit the opened stagstations with moresaves mod?
Could I have any help setting up decoration master?
What are you struggling with ?
I cant get the mod to actually work
I have the mod and I dont have any ui for placing stuff or anything
No
Well it’s called "read me" for a reason…
Why is it a musescore file wtf
The shortcut to open the edition menu is caplock
Ok I opened the raeadme
I pressed caplock It didnt do anything
Why isnt this working..
hey, me and a friend are trying to get itemsync to work but the instructions on the github aren't exactly clear. is it possible to have itemsync on a non randomized world (i.e. without using the randomizer tab in the menu)?
and is it possible to do it just using the multiplayer mod like how fire did in his recent video?
I’m not sure how one might be able to use item sync without the randomiser mod, that said you can toggle off all randomiser setting to make the game functionally vanilla
do you know if the settings will remain if I were to, say, back out of the randomizer after setting it up and opening a world in glimmering realm?
You can always copy the setting code to make sure of it
alright, thanks for the help! we'll try to figure this out later once he gets his randomizer working and see if its actually possible
I would assume Glimmering Realm requires a new save? (it's descrirbed as a "game mode") so I doubt it is compatible with rando/rando connections
Im having trouble opening decoration master's UI. I edited the .json file to allow build mode, and the spawn point shows up, but pressing caplock does not activate the build mode. Anyone know how to fix?
is there any mod which can show me ps4 bindings default on hollow knight pc steam , instead of xbox ?
Press tab
change them in the settings
Pressed them, tab didnt seem to work, tab is also my inventory button
where?
i dont see the option to change controller type
How can I get glass soul to work? I downloaded and activated it
Remap inputs
You start a new safe
Sometimes changing my controller settings in steam (toggle PlayStation configuration support) helps me with this issue. You'll have to close the game, change the setting, then reopen the game I think. I hope that helps, it can be hit and miss for me
yeah I noticed that you are 1 hit. I thought you would only have 1 mask displayed
Hello. I'm currently having an issue where when I fire my shade soul the game freezes momentarily. I'm not sure what the cause is but I think it might have to do with my skin mod (daughter of stars)
how do I set up synced item randomizer on my hosted hkmp server?
is there a way to stop QoL from disabling cutscenes
where
That's the benchwarp settings
Pause the game then go to options -> mods -> QoL
yeah i just thought of that
i'm new to modding. i've watched fireb0rn's tutorial on how to get scarab up and running and download mods. i just wondered if i need to have scarab running in the background in order for mods to work in game? or can i close scarab and still have the mods work? thanks in advance! 
You can close Scarab, that won't affect the mods

Hello! Do you know where I can find a pirate themed custom skin for the knight? I've yet to find one.
Hello ! I was told to come here, I'm trying to get hk to work on linux but it's not starting, I put in -force-opengl in the launch options and it worked but ever since the last update it just says "InitializeEngineGraphics failed" idk what to do ;-;
To be clear, I don't want to pirate the game, I'd just like to find a custom skin that makes the knight look like a pirate.

i play on xbox but if i can mod i would download it on pc gamepass
Yea you can mod on PC

does it have a different process
does game pass count?
im on the xbox app btw
Success! Thanks again.

How to use Scarab in Microsoft Store
🔹 First enter the Xbox app and move your mouse over Hollow Knight on the left bar.
🔹 Click the three points then click "Manage".
🔹 Go to the "Files" tab and select "Browse...".
🔹 Click Hollow Knight then Content, click the path bar and copy it.
🔸Run Scarab as admin and when it asks you for the path paste what copied before.
Alternate Method:
🔹 Click on your profile then "Settings"
🔹 Go to "General" tab and select "CHANGE FOLDER"
🔹 Look for a folder where you want to install the game (Preferably inside a folder in your desktop).
🔸 Copy the path bar, then run Scarab as Administrator and when it asks you for the path, paste what copied before.
Scarab path folder needs to have Hollow Knight_Data folder inside

Just download Randomizer 4 and it should download everything else needed

For room rando you'll need randomizer 4, for enemy rando you need a mod that must be installed manually

I have it installed but items still in same order
Did you... randomize.. items when making the save?
You need to create a new save to randomize the items
question before i start playing
is hk hard with keyboard
Ok need to do it before the save then thanks
I play with keyboard and I've done all bosses hitless. Take that as you will
However, it just comes down to preference

- Video Tutorial on using CK:
https://youtu.be/z35cFvU0McQ?t=466
🔹 Common issues
- Make sure that you apply skins from the Pause Menu (Options > Mods > Custom Knight), when you have your save file loaded.
- If you have White Boxes ◻️, restart your game. You may also need to try applying the skin in a small/empty room, like a stag station.
🔹 Troubleshooting
Please post a screenshot that shows:
- Where you installed the skin
- With the directory bar visible
- With the skin images themselves visible

?tag install
To manually install mods on 1.5.78.
🔹 Download the mod (it'll be either a dll file or a folder).
🔹 Go to your /Mods folder and create a folder with the name of the mod.
Note: You can use your installer to Open the Mods Folder
🔹 Move the mod file(s) into the newly created folder.
➡️ Run the game.
Example of an installed mod:

HKMP (Hollow Knight Multiplayer)
🔹Guide to installing and using: https://geroyuni.notion.site/HKMP-Hollow-Knight-Multiplayer-21723018c74c41d3bc555ee9cfaeb743
🔹 How it works:
HKMP puts a copy of each player into each other players world. Enemies have separate health and can be in different places; items/abilities must be collected separately; breakable objects must be broken separately.
A player's attack will happen in each player's world, damaging any enemies/players it comes in contact with. A player is only hurt by the enemies in their own world.
🔹 Public Servers:
For general use (PVP enabled)
IP: hkmp.org
PORT: 26950
Requires HkmpPouch
For exclusively co-op (PVP disabled)
IP: hkmp.org
PORT: 26951
Requires HkmpPouch
For playing Tag
IP: 51.178.38.45

Important note: "Invalid Addons" means that you have extra HKMP addons that can't be used on the server. Pouch servers can have any Addons that say that they require Pouch, but you otherwise cannot use others!
hello, I might have an issue with rando map mod? (or I might be overlooking a setting)
I updated all my randomiser mods today that needed updating and when I turned on rando map mod halfway through, it didn't show me any pins, bench pins included
I tried turning it off and on, restarting the game, turning on spoilers, toggling all settings off and on, but nothing changed so far
(I used the mod before and it worked without problem)
Did you update map mod? Scarab isn't always correct in what it thinks needs updating
Additionally, you may want to uninstall and reinstall all Rando-related mods
A lot of them updated recently, and if any of them are the old version, a bunch of stuff will break
HAHAHAHAH WTF MY ANY RADIANCE IS DOUBLED 💀 IDK WHY
I did check if I had double radiance on and I didnt so wth is going on
i'll double check it!
I thought I updated everything but reinstalling seems to be the safe bet
I ran into this in my run, what mod is this added by, if anyone would be able to tell me?
Screenshot your title screen
That's from Loremaster
reinstalling the rando mods fixed it, thank you! 
it still didn't show on my old file but i started a new one and on there the map pins are all visible
I selected the folder and this came up, what do I do?
You shouldnt be selecting that one, what you should be selecting is C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\
where do I find that?
Just copy and paste it
where did you get your Hollow Knight?
xbox
?tag gamepass
How to use Scarab in Microsoft Store
🔹 First enter the Xbox app and move your mouse over Hollow Knight on the left bar.
🔹 Click the three points then click "Manage".
🔹 Go to the "Files" tab and select "Browse...".
🔹 Click Hollow Knight then Content, click the path bar and copy it.
🔸Run Scarab as admin and when it asks you for the path paste what copied before.
Alternate Method:
🔹 Click on your profile then "Settings"
🔹 Go to "General" tab and select "CHANGE FOLDER"
🔹 Look for a folder where you want to install the game (Preferably inside a folder in your desktop).
🔸 Copy the path bar, then run Scarab as Administrator and when it asks you for the path, paste what copied before.
Scarab path folder needs to have Hollow Knight_Data folder inside

ok it worked thanks
I can't download anything
"can't" why?
the install button is grayed out and clicking it does nothing
are you running as admin?
wdym?
are you running Scarab as Administrator
I think so
Post a screenshot?
this happens now
How to fix Installer Errors
🔹 Make sure Hollow Knight is CLOSED.
🔹 Make sure that the installer has been Extracted from the .zip and that the new folder isn't in your Downloads folder.
🔹 Right-click the installer file, and select "Run as Administrator".
Yo, i’m making a custom pantheon.
I want to include marmu, but I can’t find her scene name. Anyone know it please ?
Seems like I can’t find it, maybe I’ll fetch it myself
But thanks for the map, I’m sure it’ll be useful in the future :D
Bruh nvm marmu’s scene is in the map
I can’t read
does anyone know how to use the multiplayer mod on scarab
