__Custom Knight __
🔹 Resources

🔹 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):

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.globalsettings files from your saves directors ( type ?tag saves in chat if you don't know where that is), or by using an automatic script from ?tag reset .

Ay yo, total noob question buuuuut. Is there a way to make it so the custom skin im using, stays on when healing and interacting/reading in the game?

real jacinth
#

Custom knight does that by default

#

If the skin you're using hasn't changed those sprites, then they won't change.

shell root
#

I have the custom knight installed and enabled, and I'm using the Anomaly Beta so there is probably a separate setting I need to tick

Is there a way to download more mods on scarab mod installer? (mods that aren't there by default) I don't see the boss upgrade mods like Ultimatum or Any Radiance.

🔹 Editing save files
You can edit various values of save files. Below are different available methods.

  • MoreSaves Mod: With the MoreSaves mod installed, you can edit save files from the Mod Menu. Pause the game then go to Options>Mods>MoreSaves to edit save files in game.
  • QoL mod: If you open a save file with QoL installed, you'll have an extra save file called user#.json, which can be edited using Notepad or a similar text editor. If you do not know where your saves are located, type ?tag saves for more information
  • DebugMod: While not an intended purpose, you can edit some parts of your save file using Debug, such as Nail Damage, and those changes will remain even after uninstalling the mod.

#

Which link do i use?

pliant lantern
#

Scarab is a Mod Installer

#

so, the first link

frigid carbon
#

Also is there any danger to my saves should i back them up or should they be fine

pliant lantern
#

After resetting it, it may work again.
That being said, Scarab doesn't know about mods that you already have. So it's normal that it doesn't see the mods that are there.

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.

Cracked versions are not supported for mods

dense shuttleBOT

Piracy is not something that is supported in pretty much any "main" community for a game, and that includes modding communities.

HK Modding is only supported on the official Steam version, the official GoG version, and the official Microsoft Store version.

Please refrain from discussing piracy or asking for assistance any further. We also will not help you if you have pirated the game. If you continue, further action could be taken.

Hollow Knight goes on sale regularly, and you can keep an eye on this website for when it is:

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.

I'm getting into HKMP and I was wondering if the "Ghost Hunter" mod is client side or if I have to put it on my server somehow?

Can we destroy deployed bench? (Benchwarp Mod)

There's a destroy button

does steam game save file permanently overwrite a save PI_lonelysad

#

I was being a dumbass and clicked cloud save (which was at dec 8) instead of the other thats my recent progress

warm roost
#

I don't know but while waiting for someone who knows one thing you can check is wether the game's own backups get overwritten by steam cloud saves or not, to do that you'll need to go to your save folder, move userX.dat somewhere else (X being the number of the slot of the save) and rename userX.dat.bak1 to userX.dat, and launch the game

# hidden shuttle oh thank, ill try this soon <a:KitaClap:1045710546806263858>

Sorry for the ping, I just want to correct one thing that I said: you might have several files called userX.dat.bak#, # being a number probably different than 1 as opposed to what I said, it indicates when the backup was made so you'll probably want to chose the file with the highest value because it will be the most recent one

#

On the bright side, I checked what files steam is backing up for me and these .bak# files weren't in the list, so that might mean that they weren't overwritten when you downloaded the saves

Help, I want to use mods but with scarab all the animals such as stag and dreamers are gone, I really want to see those but i cant, and i need the zote texture pack to play, ZUNDA

What version of the game are you on?

shrewd peak

well i only installed customknight but my brother installed hkmphealth display qol recent items benchwarp and randomizer, and i have qaulity of life off

warm roost
#

Are you playing in a randomized file? Also avoid using multiplayer mods when you aren't playing multiplayer. And if you're looking for a specific skin, look at Colette's skin list pinned in #modding-discussion

And I have the newest scarab

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".

I can't right now sorry

its good

all files are extracted

but what one is the installer

#

just scarab

#

the mods are downloading but hollowknight is not seeing them

#

i dont know how to change or check the path

#

oh it is in steamapps > common > hollowknight > hollow_knight_data > plugins

warm roost
#

The path should link to the folder containing the hollow knight data folder, so in your case it should link to the hollowknight folder

#

?tag reset you can try to run the mod installer link

Enemy Randomizer for 1.5 (Includes and requires ModCommon for 1.5):
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/879133769070706698/966935382308573204/EnemyRandomizerModCommon.zip

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.

rain compass
#

when i have hollow point enabled i can't use focus

#

holding A just does nothing

merry pier
#

That is not a bug

#

It’s a feature

#

The mod implements an alternative way of healing

rain compass
#

yeah
and it makes progression impossible

merry pier
#

Everything should be described in the mod readme

rain compass
#

since you need to focus to kill the dreamers
and the hollow knight

#

focus is also supposed to reload anyways isn't it?

modest quest
#

use qol mod

merry pier
#

Pretty sure you can focus the dreamer and thk

#

The only thing that changes is the healing part

rain compass
#

doesn't do anything

merry pier
#

Huh, didn’t knew that, tbh I’ve always played hollow point with either QoL or randomiser both of which negate that issue

warm roost
#

Yup, qol is required

rain compass
#

ah

__Custom Knight __
🔹 Resources

🔹 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):

On that note if you have, y’a know, an antivirus on your pc note that it will say that scarab is a virus

exotic sundial
#

ok good to know

merry pier
#

You download the "zip" file for whichever system you have

exotic sundial
#

would i download the window.zip?

#

ok

merry pier
#

And then you need to extract the zip, using winrar (which you do not have to buy despite what it might say) and extract those files in a folder, on your desktop for example

exotic sundial
#

I installed it know what?

#

where would one obtain winrar?

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

Hello, I need help having steam recognize my save files. I had it working properly a couple minutes ago but was lagging very badly once I switched off focus. Worked much better after --force-opengl flag was passed (and I forced proton experimental), but it pushed my save files to user1.dat.bak# I copied and moved them back to user1, user2, ... but steam still doesn't recognize those saves.

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!

#

Two things, make sure to deinstall everything regarding to moddinstaller two if you plan on using scarab

#

Second off don’t install mods you don’t know what they do (for example custom knight plus if you only know what custom knight does)

heady kestrel
#

(third off mods have links to their githubs/readmes as well as descriptions so you can learn what they do if you don't know)

One question, Is there a way to make every enemy randomized? I mean by this. The enemy randomizer I have installed right now changes the enemy to another one, example is the crawlids turn into mistakes and vengeflies in oomas, but I would like that an enemy is randomized into every other one, I mean that one crawlid is a watcher knight and another one is a husk, how can I change this?

heady kestrel
#

Change the mode to chaos

If it’s not there then it’s probably one of the rare mods that haven’t been ported

#

After digging up a bit using discord search feature this pops up
So there you go, you need to manually install it

native dagger
#

ayo why arent the pins showing up? it used to work fine before

merry pier
#

What mod are you using ?

#

Because you might be using map mod S, which is now outdated, the new one being rando map mod, which basically does the same thing, but better

#

how do i turn off mapmodS? i have rando mapmod installed but they overlay eachother

#

nevermind i got it fixed, S wasnt visible in scarab for some reason but i found it in the mod folder hollowface

__Custom Knight __
🔹 Resources

🔹 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):

Hello
can i play itemsync without playing randomizer?

#

like whats the normal seed (the seed where everything is in its place)

pliant lantern
#

A. Yes
B. There isn't some magic "default" seed

#

You need to simply not randomize everything

#

Note: You'll need to select "Sync Vanilla" when you get to the ItemSync part. And you may want to download Rando Vanilla Tracker on the installer, so that you can sync more things. Additionally, there's not a way to prevent the costs of things from randomizing, but this shouldn't drastically affect the playthrough

Common MacOS Problems & Fixes

🔹 Scarab doesn't open correctly on MacOS

  • Move the file you downloaded (mac.zip) to your Desktop
  • Double-Click it, and Scarabmaggotprime should appear
  • Right-Click the Scarabmaggotprime icon, and select "show contents"
  • Go into the MacOS folder, and then double-click the "Scarab" file.

🔹 ⚠️Scarab cannot be opened because it is from an unidentified developer.

  • In the Finder on your Mac, locate the app you want to open. Don’t use Launchpad to do this! It doesn’t allow access the shortcut menu.
  • Control + click the app icon, then choose "Open" from the shortcut menu.
  • Click "Open".
    The app is now saved as an exception to your security settings, and you can open it in the future by double-clicking it like normal.

🔹 Cannot Launch HK after updating MacOS or after changing patches!

🔹 Editing save files
You can edit various values of save files. Below are different available methods.

  • MoreSaves Mod: With the MoreSaves mod installed, you can edit save files from the Mod Menu. Pause the game then go to Options>Mods>MoreSaves to edit save files in game.
  • QoL mod: If you open a save file with QoL installed, you'll have an extra save file called user#.json, which can be edited using Notepad or a similar text editor. If you do not know where your saves are located, type ?tag saves for more information
  • DebugMod: While not an intended purpose, you can edit some parts of your save file using Debug, such as Nail Damage, and those changes will remain even after uninstalling the mod.

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

hollowpirate Your game is pirated / illegitimate.
Piracy is not supported in most communities for games. Mods are not considered compatible with pirated copies, and you will not get troubleshooting support in any of the main servers for them.

HK Modding is only supported on the official versions from Steam, GoG, or the Microsoft Store.
Hollow Knight goes on sale regularly, and you can keep an eye on this website for when it is:

Hi everyone,

I’ve been playing HK on two separate platforms, Steam and the Switch.

I want to migrate my older save files (on Steam) over to the Nintendo Switch, but the main issue is that I was playing HK on the CrossOver version of Steam (and therefore, technically, the PC version of HK) on my Mac. 🤦🏾‍♂️

Does anyone know if it’s possible to migrate HK save files from the CrossOver version of Steam to the Switch?

Please kindly let me know. Thanks so much

#

So what should i do?

merry pier
#

Well mods only work for the few versions of the game I have mentioned before (steam gog and also the Xbox gamepass) so unless you have one of those mods will not work with your game

#

So you would have to buy the game (again?)

real jacinth
#

If you have the collector's edition, it comes with a game key

#

So use that to get the steam or gog version

But this sounds like hollowpirate

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!

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.

🔹 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.

I mean, restart the game, check if everything is up to date

#

I don’t really know what else could have gone wrong tbh

#

It could

#

You can always check if your scarab is up to date, if your mods are…

#

Also sometime scarab doesn’t do it’s job properly in which case you can delete the mods by hand and then reinstall them

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.globalsettings files from your saves directors ( type ?tag saves in chat if you don't know where that is), or by using an automatic script from ?tag reset .

specifically the last one, if parts of the skin work and other parts aren't.

I've downloaded couple "pirated" version of hollowknight before but then i found out that the mods doesnt work on pirated version so i decided to buy it on steam and uninstalled the pirated version. But somehow the game just stuck on blackscreen during startup, and i tried to use the scarab but it keeps saying couldnt find the right path to Hollowknight related kinda stuff when it obviously is "D:\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data"

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!

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

hollowpirate Your game is pirated / illegitimate.
Piracy is not supported in most communities for games. Mods are not considered compatible with pirated copies, and you will not get troubleshooting support in any of the main servers for them.

HK Modding is only supported on the official versions from Steam, GoG, or the Microsoft Store.
Hollow Knight goes on sale regularly, and you can keep an eye on this website for when it is:

Whenever i try to select a skin and go into the game, the skin isnt being applied. When i go back to the "custom knight" mod options it is also back to default.
Same with the QoL of life mod. When i activate it in the mod options, go into a game and back into the menu -> mod options, it is set to off again.

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.
