I’m sorry but what, 2gigs of ram ? That, exists ? Your probably talking about vram but if your not then my god
trying to set up Scarab on my Steam Deck, i can see the ui but when trying to download a mod i get the error "An exception occured while installing"
?tag error I hope this one is relevant for steam deck too
How to fix Installer Errors
🔹 Make sure Hollow Knight is CLOSED.
🔹 Make sure that all 4 installer files have been Extracted from the .zip and that the new folder isn't in your Downloads folder. (Extract the 4 files to your desktop)
🔹 Right-click the installer file, and select "Run as Administrator".
Is there a way to use skins without modloader
?tag steamdeck
Mods/Controller not working correctly on Steam Deck
Issue: Steam Deck installs the Windows version of HK, then runs it in proton. This would be fine except that you install Linux Scarab, which replaces the Assembly-Csharp with the Linux version, and then it doesn't like to work correctly on "Windows" anymore
Solution: Go to the HK Library page, select Properties -> Compatibility, check "Force the use of a specific steam play compatibility tool", and select "Steam Linux Runtime" (Note: not the sniper or soldier versions)
This will reinstall the Linux version of the game, and move some files around, so you'll need to select "Change Paths" in Scarab and change it to the new install path, then reinstall your mods. After this, everything should be working.
Ooh didn't know this one existed
<@&283547423706447872>
Thanks.
can anyone help me? i installed customknight and it was working. then i installed the QoL mod, and suddenly the customknight mod doesnt work anymore. i cant change my skin. i click apply and the skin remains the same. i even uninstalled the qol mod, and reinstalled the game/customknight mod and still cant change my skin
Could you give us some info on what your config is ? (Where is your game from, which installer you are using…)
Steam, scarab
Uhhum
QoL shouldn’t do anything to CK
So I assumed you changed something in the meantime
Make sure that you follow this

__Custom Knight __
🔹 Resources
- List of all skins: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qKfOtOXpYormusD05I700P8d79E74R1bTb3MP4vum-E
- 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
Example screenshot (yours should look like this):
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/910762350267744276/924905787728470067/CustomKnight_File_Example_1578.png
the only thing i changed was in the QoL mod settings and ive already uninstalled it
no
It isn’t disabled in your main menu option or smt ?
Again, QoL should not affect ck in anyway, a lot of other mods can, like hollow point and stuff, but not QoL
i reinstalled scarab and am reeinstalling ck
I'm not an expert on that but usually when ck breaks without visible explanation resetting the global settings seems to solve the issue
?tag reset
Windows scripts to reset things:
*To use these scripts:
- Download the file
- Move the file to your Desktop
- Double-Click the file*
🔹 Reset all Mod Installers: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/879138066961424405/890824593848299550/HKModInstaller_Reset.bat

A last thing you could do is check manually if scarab is doing it’s job right, aka if the custom knight ddl is in the right place
Well if your reinstalling everything you don’t have to do that
(So if reinstalling didn't work you can try the second link of this message)
alright

you're right, i reinstalled QoL and its working with ck now. no idea what the fuck happened bc i know i didnt change anything
by chance you didn’t install QoL while the game was running
…
You know what? I think that’s what happened.
Now that I think of it
I clicked install while forgetting the game was open. I got a prompt asking to close down hollow knight and I must have clicked no accidentally
That explains it then
Yeah don’t mess with files when the game is open

anyone know why anyrad and modcommon arent showing on scarab?
Because scarab doesn't read what mods you added, it's normal. Also the files need to be in a folder
ah ok
is that only with 1.5?
For the folder thing? It might be, I've never modded 1.4
Yeah on 1.4 you just through the mods in the mod folder
Good to know

where is the button to respawn my shade in debug mod?

mhm
how do i use the gun? What button do i press?
Review the readme
i dont have a read me
Yes you do it comes with the mod
Look harder
._.
i'm having repetitive issues with RandoMapMod and room rando, where the map mod just decides to make every room "out of logic". Has anyone else had this issue? Is there a way to fix it?
Does the helper log show rooms in logic the mapmod does not?
that's not the problem
this is.
also yes
but in this state the pathfinder does not work
Does the problem persist in the other transition modes?
Check the dependencies are up to date (even if scarab claims they already are)
If nothing is out of date I am stumped - it should match the helper log as far as what rooms are considered in logic & I haven't had any trouble myself recently but maybe someone else will have an idea
how do i add multiplayer mod?
Press the install button on scarab
can someone please tell me the controls to the gun in hollow point
I'd guess you can find this in the read me
it legit DOESNT TELL ME IN THERE
``` Based on this I'd assume pressing the button for the nail or holding it. It also talks about two different fire mods
Look in the control bindings in your menu
Options > Controls or something
But yes cast is spell/focus
omg join general 2
im wanting to show you that it doesnt work, but ok
which cast are you using
not quick cast
doesnt work

Can someone please tell me how to get the pins back on my map from map mod? Third rando to do this and I have no clue what’s happening.
Left hand bar for map mod settings have completely vanished too
Im having some troubles with my randomizer. I have attached a google disk with some videos to show. But heres for those that dont wanna click it, but i believe its best shown visually
-
selubras bench and hut are not visible, but can interact with it. This too goes for menderbug and slys huts too. Around where the shade tends to spawn, there are magenta rectangles
-
gruz mother can be interacted with and killed, but cannot give drops or the gruzzers. Her background is also conpletely vanished
-
all forms of gruzzers are invisible, along with those husks with one horns
-
hive knight's voice lines when he attacks are completely gone. Hes completely silent during the fight, apart from one small grunt that happens rarely due to other voice lines exsisting too. The boss music is gone too, but the bees he spawns make noise (no video of as i defeated him yesterday while playing)
Because im playing room rando, im sure theres a lot more that i have yet to encounter
The mods i have on are; debug mode, benchwarp, itemchanger, menuchanger, QoL (off, but enabled), randomizer 4, randomizercore, redobirthplace (was practicing climbing fast), SFCore, vasi
Heres the attached drive folder with the videos
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1IfvFd2dSbvVEF8vkRr9xzAv9gjWWHJT2
Im also playing in 1.5
Also, on a save i made while trying a new speedrun category that caught my attention (not randomized), gruz mother and the gruzzers are just like what mentioned above. Completely quitting out of the game does not work either
However, the mods mentioned above were still on, with QoL being enabled, but off
are you guys allowing any type of mods on your game? I'm curious, is there some "banned" mods? (ping me when responding or i won't see it)
No, but be sure from where you download mods if you manually install them don't use sketchy links or nexus (later isn't banned but broken af), almost all mods are on github and theres scarab which let's you install mods and all the mods there are checked what they are
That seems really weird, are your drivers up to date if no update, otherwise send your modlog and the spoilerlog
K thanks
Why not Nexus though Link?
my drivers are up to date. here's the modlog. i assume this is the spoiler log
Outdated
Ok

Hello. I have a question. Are there mods that optimize the game? Or make the game load faster? I don't have that much hardware to play the game without freezes and long loadings.

you need to select the hollow knight folder which contains the hk data folder

my scarab wont let me use the hollow knight data folder
it worked the first time then it closed down and wont let me use it again
Doesnt acceot path?
yea
Can you send a screenshot of what youre selecting?
how
In windows you can click win +shift+s
k
Select an area and the control+v
Try selecting the one before it
Also i think windows has a screenshot button on the kb
Huh
yea
Cant you copy and paste here the path?
yea
Prsc button is not on all keyboards, smaller ones almost never have it
yea
yea ive got 60 percent
i might be able to do it manually without scarab
can some one send the file for custom knight
Lets try first solving the scarab issue since its a lot more trouble getting mods manually
Well?
yea but win + shift + s
Oh yeah, there is no excuse here
@cursive root?
Link are you getting "the vibes" too?
hmm
Considering they ran to another channel to ask same/similar question instead if just answer you...
Oh I got it I take my
back
any one got the custom knight mod cause i might be able to do it manually
We dont, you can get it via scarab tho
Resolving your scarab issue is easier
k
show proof that you own the game legally first cause you seem kinda sketchy
k
(And if by chance you don't own it legally know that manual install is not a solution to make things work)
…
If you can screenshot that why can't you screenshot the path you gave to scarab?
i can
24p
Then send that screenshot
imagine you could just use the snipping tool which only saves the image in memory and not locally

Hello. I have a question. Are there mods that optimize the game? Or make the game load faster? I don't have that much hardware to play the game without freezes and long loadings. (Repost)
The last one
And the first
Not exactly about "modding", but the game doesn't really recognize that I beat it. Basically, I can't select gamemodes like Steel Soul, as an example.
You can try this guide to reduce lag. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2609671089 , the Low end pc section. other than that you're out of luck, other than the answers you've gotten earlier
You only need to use spoiler tags in #hk-help btw
And have you lowered the resolution?
I just tested it
Yes, 84# 6##, I don't quite remember
Okay, then I guess your computer isn't powerful enough for mods
Bruh it's like 2 mods, benchwarp and a dependency
For benchwarp to work
Forgot it's name too...
Also, custom knight
Then thats like 3-4
I already answered you the first time you posted but to add to that, custom knight can be moderately intensive because it's loading additional things, especially if you're using one with lots of swaps
play windowed, lower the resolution more
like to 540p
the window should get smaller
Im using the Grimm knight skin
Too low for it to be playable
Ok then
Did you change computers or anything?
Im sorry but for some reason when i try to begin a randomizer run this error message appears and stops me from playing so does anyone know what it says or how to solve it
Yes

You should check ModLog. Most likely, they aren't connecting to Twitch. This commonly happens if there is a typo made in the config file.

What mods are you using?
sorry i can dm you the mod list im using
kk give me a sec
You can post a screenshot of your Main Menu though, which will show them
Yeah I did. Considering just speedrunning the game.
The extra modes are part of a registry file, so it doesn't carry over to new computers.
You can either:
- Beat THK again to unlock them (just using a file that's at end game already)
- They should be unlockable using SpeedrunQol iirc (if not that mod, then a different one, but I think that's the one)
quick question, do i need osmi to run randomizer? i cant remember
No, just install with scarab and it should automatically install everything else you need
the start button for randomizer doesnt show, how do i fix it?
I'm making a skin, does anyone know if I need to stay inside the red boxes the vanilla skin has? Or can I go outside it?
Okay I just searched this chat and got my answer, thank you
Is there a mod that instantly unlocks all shortcuts? I haven't played Hollow Knight in a while but I faintly remember a mod that does that.
ah alright.
Use a 16:9 aspect ratio
Not that I know of, but you can look through debug mod to see if it has something like that - If it's not the case you can use noclip in the cheats menu of debug

HKMP (Hollow Knight Multiplayer)
🔹Guide to installing and using: https://geroyuni.notion.site/HKMP-Hollow-Knight-Multiplayer-21723018c74c41d3bc555ee9cfaeb743
🔹 Video guide: https://youtu.be/zKEjNSk8AgM
🔹 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: tag.hkmp.org
PORT: 26950
Requires HKMP Tag
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!
is italy still modding hk stuff or is he on hiatus
Italy is still gone, yeah.
They said that they'd take a PR for it though, if someone wants to post a fix.
hello, my friend and I are trying to use the exclusively co-op public server but for some reason it isn't working. My connection always times out unless I'm hosting, but if I'm hosting I still can't see anyone or anything. And if I'm not hosting it says the "server has shut down" in the text area. Is there a way I can resolve this?
A. You can't be hosting and join the public server.
B. Make sure you've checked the pins regarding the public servers and the recent HKMP update
thank you! It won't let me join unless i'm hosting, what should I do?
If you're hosting, then you're joining yourself.
oh
that makes sense, thank you!
I'll give that a try
does multiplayer still work without HKMPpouch?
the pinned message says you shouldn't have addons, so I'm guessing it should work without pouch it's just different
Pouch is just an addon that lets some other addons work even if not everyone has them. The only thing that not having it changes is that you cannot use those mods.
Mod makes no sense
no mods
try pail curt
Skissue
heya small question about using hkmp, i'm currently hosting a private server using hamachi rn to try and do it but my friend just times out when trying to join. They live over in Hawaii while i'm in Europe. Would it be more due to me messing up something or is it just an issue with us trying to connect to each other from a far distance?
What mods do you have?
Hollow Knight puts up the little Ghost in the corner running animation and then crashes when I try to run it with the Scarab on. Doesn't even get to the Team Cherry logo.
Am using the Steam version, 1.5.78, no betas
If I hit Disable API it works just fine, but I presume that turns the mods off?
Drivers up to date? Specs?
Intel Core i7-2600k, 3.4 GHZ, 32 GB of RAM, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070.
Game works fine if I hit "Disable API" in Scarab, and does the crashy booms when I hit "Enable API" again.
I'd think if it was driver related, it wouldn't run at all?
No, it can still run
кто из россии?
english
No one
Ok, will try updating the driver then.
Updating the graphics driver has not ceased it crashing, but it did give me an error message this time.
go to your saves location, grab your player log and output log and send them here
That is neither of what I asked for
okay, well there's something you're not telling us then, b/c there's a mismatch in the versions you're sharing
screenshot your scarab and your steam betas page
Like I said, the Output log is timestamped from several hours ago. I updated my graphic driver in that span of time. There isn't a new one.
your output log is saying the game is version 1.4
.
If I hit "Disable API" the game works.
The moment I turn it on, it crashes after a few moments on a black screen with a white walking animation in the corner.

so reset the installer, uninstall everything, and then install a mod you want
Is resetting the installer something else I have to do, or is it just running those two .bat files?
the bat file is what resets it
Windows 7?
Yup, Windows 7.
Is it 64bit?
It is. Pretty sure I upgraded from the 32 bit so I could add more RAM.
Computer > Properties says it's 64-bit.
Verified files, it replaced 2.
Ran the BAT files
Uninstalled mods in Scarab, installed completely new mod
Same walking animation to crash
Gonna uninstall and reinstall the whole game to see if that does anything.
Nope.
And now Scarab isn't even working right.
Unless I verify integrity of the files with Steam it doesn't recognize the Hollow Knight directory.
If I do that, it'll run. Once.
And attempting to install a mod gives "an exception occurred while installing or uninstalling (mod)"
I'm running Scarab.exe as admin, Hollow Knight is closed.
This is so frustrating.
And Enable API is now grayed out
Installing any mod will also install/enable the API
Ah. Ok.
Unfortunately I can't seem to be able to install any mods.
As best I can tell I'm doing everything correctly.
In the modding server there is a beta installer called Butterfly that I've seen recommended for some people who just cannot get Scarab to cooperate.
Can I get a link?
it's pinned in #modding-discussion
thanks
or someone there might have another idea (although it's many of the same people that are active in the modding channels here)
the exception error can also be caused by your scarab location
where do you have the scarab files
directly on the desktop
unzipped? all 4 files?
Yup. Two lib(thing) dlls, Scarab.exe and Scarab.pdb
I do somewhat wonder if it's related to windows 7, I don't know how many people are modding on that OS
Aaand the Butterfly installer will not complete x.x
I should've probably taken the free Windows upgrade when it was being offered, I suppose.
Thanks for trying, y'all.
Hopping back to 1.4 via the beta and using mod installer 2 works just fine for some reason.
can someone tell me how benchwarp works
i try going on a bench
and tping to benches ive been
and it doesnt work
after you download it you can open the menu and in the top left it should show all of the benches you sat on
just clicking at the available benches should work, weird
it doesnt work
did you try sitting on a bench after you got the mod and tping to it?
oh
when i click on it its yellow
maybe
it didnt let me click teh text
still

i mean, thats what deploy does
no thats the latest one
what should my settings be
basic ones should work
thats a different thing that i as the name says, im pretty sure it tps you to doors
that doesnt work either
so howd i go to 1.5 ?
It should be default, where do you got the game from?
hey any got a good guide for modding hollow knight?

thx
It might be a stupid question, but did you click the warp button after selecting the bench?
you click the bench name to SELECT IT, then you click warp to warp to the selected bench
Do you have to make a new save file to start using the lost artifacts mod or is it just available in all of them.
It might be available in every file, but it's best to start a new on just in case. Guarantees it should work just fine.
heyo so scarab isnt working for the current patch of hk
When i go to options i can't see the mod option, why not?
Bc you don't have a mod installed that uses it?
Imagine you could explain the problem 
Ok
Also can you manually change your skin without a mod? or is that not possible
Why would in the first place?
Pc too weak to have mods
How is changing sprites too weak for my pc
Is manually doing it more demanding or something
Yea the software necessary to do it
There isn't a warp button
If there is where is it
Top left
Ok
Oh holy crap
I just saw the button
I'm so dumb
Sorry guys
Okay.....
Now I know
Sorry yall
Also there's another question

There are some skins that don't work
Like killer whale
__Custom Knight __

🔹 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

Note: if you don't know how to manually install mods that aren't on the installer, type ?tag install into chat.
After installing, in order to actually use the mod
When the mod is correctly installed, you should see it at the top-left of your main menu, with the other mods you have installed.
If there is also some larger text that says "Load Enemy Randomizer", then press that button to randomize the enemies using the default settings (Note: you will need to wait a few minutes while this loads). If the button is not there, then go into Options > Mods, and Disable the mod, and then re-enable it. You will also need to close the game entirely, and re-open it.
That's this server...
what mod installer should i use?
Scarab

thanks :D
does anyone know how to install the item randomizer?

🔹Guide to installing and using: https://geroyuni.notion.site/HKMP-Hollow-Knight-Multiplayer-21723018c74c41d3bc555ee9cfaeb743
🔹 Video guide: https://youtu.be/zKEjNSk8AgM
🔹 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

For exclusively co-op (PVP disabled)
IP: hkmp.org
PORT: 26951
Requires HkmpPouch
For playing Tag
IP: tag.hkmp.org
PORT: 26950
Requires HKMP Tag
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!

You can try clearing your HK registry info.
This sometimes fixes the game just generally "behaving" weirdly. It will have a side effect of potentially removing your in-game Achievements, and your ability to start new game modes (ie you'll need to beat thk again to be able to start steel soul)
Clearing HK Registry Data
This is useful for fixing some uncommon game behaviors, more commonly associated with playing on older patches. Warning: This doing this will reset your local game achievements, including your ability to start a Steel Soul and Godseeker save.

Yeah this is legal, team cherry is even on this server
I mean, if this was banned we wouldnt have channels for it on the server
No, why would it be open source then 
Doesn't mean there isn't open source software that's a virus but it usually gets taken down
alr thx
followed the steps, retraced the steps, tried getting rid of everything that could have done this, but this error just... wont go away
got scarab, installed custom knight, opened the game, this happened
Where did you get the game from?
steam
And i suppose youre in beta none
i give up 
hopefully my data saves, im gonna delete then redownload tomorrow
sometimes tells me you didn’t get it through steam
guys can some1 help me i verified integrity of my game files on steam because there were lots of glitches and now my scarab isnt working

no
no one cares?
okay

sorry
trying to ping everyone who's not offline is not going to work, certainly not on a >200k members server
Verifying the files undoes every modification that could have happened to the files of the game, so that's normal. Scarab is still working, but you'll need to reinstall mods
And by reinstall mods he means reinstall a mod, after that everything should be working again, that said you might still have some issues coming from earlier mistakes you may have done
Yes, verifying the files doesn't undo changes made to the save, but that doesn't mean there aren't ways to fix them
How do I use decomaster?

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

ive been trying to use the above method to start playing with mods through microsoft store and its simply not working. every time i try to get hollow knight_data in there it never considers it a viable path
You need to select the folder that contains hollow knight data, not the data folder itself

__Custom Knight __
🔹 Resources
- List of all skins: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qKfOtOXpYormusD05I700P8d79E74R1bTb3MP4vum-E
- 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
Example screenshot (yours should look like this):
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/910762350267744276/924905787728470067/CustomKnight_File_Example_1578.png
when I put on a skin it is not visible, but the skin that the mod gives to the geo is visible
that didn't happen before, my hollow knight is legal to clarify things
Common CK issues/fixes
- Verify that the skin was installed correctly.
- Ensure that you're enabling it from the Pause Menu, not the Main Menu.
- If it doesn't apply, then you may need to reset your Global Settings for it. You can either manually do this by deleting the
customknight.globalsettingsfiles from your saves directors (?savesin chat if you don't know where that is), or by using an automatic script from?reset.
what do you mean by deleting the customknight.globalsettings files?
In your Saves directory, there are mod settings files
