#

ok ty!

#

Oh it's working now

#

Thank you!

runic oriole
#

np!

dusk wigeon
#

So does Lightbringer work on Mac, and more importantly, in Godmaster?

noble basin
#

yes and yes but unless I'm mistaken the modinstaller doesn't

#

I guess you could ask

#

Gradow!

dusk wigeon
#

I'm sorry, but I'm new here. Who/what the absolute h e c c is gradow

daring peak
#

Gradow!

dusk wigeon
#

thanks

#

@runic oriole hello

glass meteor
#

Gradow!

#

LordofBones!

runic oriole
#

hello!

#

I'm the h e c c

#

uhhhh

#

idk

#

but I can try and make it work?

#

work with me lord of boners

noble basin
#

well if you didn't explicitly add mac support you're gonna need to install the mods manually bones at least for now

#

tbh if you wanna be 100% sure of things you'd want someone with the following qualifications:

  1. c# programmer
  2. who uses mac as their main OS
  3. who is as zealous about their operating system succeeding as the average linux user

But if bones is willing to give you a couple hours you might be able to get it working well enough to download mods

runic oriole
#

I just need the paths, mostly

potent atlas
#

is C# even allowed anywhere near mac

runic oriole
#

and someone willing to be used as a guinea pig

noble basin
#

the main thing is there's no Hollow_Knight_data folder it's just data. also the path is inside a .app. don't worry. .apps are actually folders

runic oriole
#

yeah, I know

noble basin
#

I mean on linux I could make a .app folder too if I wanted but the important difference is macs PRETEND like they are files.

runic oriole
#

I once installed the mac build using steamcmd

noble basin
#

and I'm worried it might trip up the path choosing program.

runic oriole
#

the only issue I have are the default paths

#

and actual testing

#

because I'm sure stuff's gonna break, even if the paths are set right

noble basin
#

also the mac mono is very very old

glass meteor
#

i gave paths

#

:ech:

#

~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/hollow_knight.app/Contents/Resources/Data/Managed

runic oriole
#

literally opening rider

#

how plausible do you think it would be for users to have their installations located somewhere else?

#

like you and your D:\

glass meteor
#

GoG wouldn't be super uncommon

runic oriole
#

oh, there's mac gog?

glass meteor
#

yeah

noble basin
#

100% possible and in that case idk that they're gonna be smart enough to choose the correct path since it requires going INSIDE the hk app file.

#

nothing against mac users but

glass meteor
#

just allow selecting the app

#

tbh

noble basin
#

they're not linux users

runic oriole
#

AA

noble basin
#

so yeah make it so if they select the app it works

runic oriole
#

yeah, I'm gonna do what 56 said

#

if the OS is mac, I'll just select the app

runic oriole
#

wtf rider is being so weird

#

I change code and compile, but it doesn't change the output

#

wtf

#

that's after both cleaning and rebuilding the solution

#

I have no idea

glass meteor
#

if you uncomment update does it update tho

runic oriole
#

nope

glass meteor
runic oriole
#

it's ignoring my changes

#

what the actual

#

welp

#

changing the build from release to debug and back to release fixed it

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

56 on those dialogue thingies on mac, is a .app considered a file or a folder?

glass meteor
#

file

runic oriole
#

k

upper pilot
#

I can't say with absolute certainty if this is related to the mod or not, but I never encountered this before I installed the enemy/boss HP bar mod - 2nd Pantheon, game crashes right when I kill one of the Oblobbles. Happened twice in a row. Second time I was directed to the crash folder with a crash.dmp file and an error log.

versed needle
#

Post the log

upper pilot
#

Here ya go. And I seemed to have confirmed it, uninstalling the HP bar mod allowed me to finish the Oblobble fight

versed needle
#

This isn't very useful, can you send the file output_log.txt from in the game folder?

upper pilot
#

Do I have to go back to reproduce the crash, or will this do? I'm running the game right now with the mod uninstalled.

versed needle
#

Yeah you'll have to reproduce it

upper pilot
#

Alrighty, re-installed, crash happened at same boss, same way, here's the log for that.

versed needle
#

Just looks like an out of memory error

upper pilot
#

How much memory would an HP enemy bar mod take up anyway?

versed needle
#

Shouldn't be too much, probably something needs to be fixed

upper pilot
#

Guess I'll wait for someone from the Mod Squad to return and take a look then. Well thanks for giving it a look anyway.

#

Shit, browsing through the output log, it's just an endless list of failure. Literally, "failed to create 2d texture blah blah blah..." going on for eternity. Wow, hahaha.

versed needle
#

The relevant bit should be at line 879

upper pilot
#

Nothing seen about a line 879. It's constantly interchanging between lines 478 and 497, whatever those are.

versed needle
#

What?

upper pilot
versed needle
#

Line 879 of the file

#

Not the line numbers written in the log

upper pilot
#

Ahhh, I see...well, I still have no idea what that is but the people who know their tech stuff unlike me, Old Man Jenkins, I'll leave it to them.

#

I also love how the output_log caps everything off at the very bottom with this text: **** Crash! ****

#

Thanks for the exclamation mark, really gives the error emphasis and pizzazz.

#

I'm a bit confused on getting my mods installed. I downloaded the 1.4.2.4 mod api but it's just a folder with a read me? The folder was for hollow_knight_Data so I pasted it into the HK folder and put mods into the Mods folder but but nothing happened. Am I missing something?

glass meteor
#

installer to be tbh

tiny blade
#

wtf go to sleep

glass meteor
#

i woke up like 15 minutes ago

#

u see

#

i slept from 5-10:30

#

then stayed up till 3

#

then woke up again at 6:30

#

perfect sleep schedule

tiny blade

#

@glass meteor Ok so I ran the mod manager and it said everything installed successfully, so I ran the game with the program still open and yet still no mod took effect

glass meteor
#

which mod did you install

#

is there anything in the top left of the menu

#

do you have multiple copies of the game

left geyser
#

invincibility, the one named Assembly-CSharp and infinite notches. I only have a single copy of the game

glass meteor
#

is there anything in the top left of the main menu

left geyser
#

let me reopen it

#

no I dont see anything

glass meteor
#

hit install modding api in the installer

left geyser
#

it said the API is already installed

glass meteor
#

hhhhhh

left geyser
#

right? I thought I was losing my mind

glass meteor
#

install debug mod

#

and try opening a save

left geyser
#

still nothing, but the dll is in the managed>mods folder

glass meteor
#

the 1.4.2.4 mod api you installed has a readme and a folder

#

w/in that folder is another folder called Managed which has the modified Assembly-CSharp

#

try replacing yours with that one manually

left geyser
#

Did it and nothing changed in-game

glass meteor
#

wtf

left geyser
#

I'm considering verifying the integrity of game cache and starting over maybe I f'ed up somewhere

left geyser
#

ok apparently that's all it took so it seems to be working now. Thanks for the help though

glass meteor
#

nice

upper pilot
#

Anyone wanna give a looksee into my issue with the game crashing at the... big...fat fly lovers (my mind isn't working right now I can't think names), and the game crashing when one of them dies in Pantheon 2 with the enemy/boss HP mod enabled?

glass meteor
#

u

potent atlas
#

that sounds like a reasonable bug

#

since they apparently heal when one dies

runic oriole
#

It worked fine before

#

I didn't test it, but saw niko beating them with the mod on

potent atlas
#

Did he only damage one before damaging the other maybe?

runic oriole
#

hmmm possible

covert oasis
#

Wow someone is installing the invincibility mod for 1.4.2.4

#

I wonder why

runic oriole
#

@upper pilot fixing xero broke oblobbles

#

brb

runic oriole
potent atlas
#

Rider keeps automatically deleting any > < or /

#

what the fuck

noble basin
low wolf
#

is there a health bar mod for the current version?

runic oriole
#

yup

#

just use the installer

marble garnet
#

Does the Randomizer mod work for the current version of Hollow Knight?

glass meteor
#

no

#

it you want to use it rn you can downpatch

marble garnet
#

Gotcha, thanks!

upper pilot
#

@runic oriole OK now the ModInstaller stopped working for me. I removed it, redownloaded it, same thing. Tried uninstalling then reinstalling HK, same problem. After I try to run it I get this window:

noble basin
#

either your system certs are messed up, your clock is messed up, or your internet is messed up/you are behind some oppressive firewall.

upper pilot
noble basin
#

you're not chineese, by chance?

upper pilot
noble basin
#

C:¥ dunq

upper pilot
#

Wtf happened between just the other day and today? Working fine yesterday night

noble basin
#

what I said. it's not the modinstaller it's something wrong with your internet/computer that's stopping you from establishing a secure connection

upper pilot
#

C:¥ A while ago there were some RPG Maker games I wanted to play but required I downloaded MS' Japanese IME in order to run them because some text was untranslated or something. As a result instead of a / when these display on my desktop it's the yen symbol for some reason.

noble basin
#

ech

upper pilot
#

What could be causing this, exactly, and how would i find out?

noble basin
#

anyway your system locale being messed up is not the problem (although you should fix that some time) but verify the following

#

In order of easiness to check
0) Your system clock is mostly semi accurate (check the date not just the time)

  1. You're not connected to say, a school internet or some other internet where google drive could be blocked by some firewall.
  2. You can actually connect to other https pages, like say: https://google.com
  3. Your system has all the needed certificates imported. no idea how to fix this on windows lul.
upper pilot
#
      1. are solid. I don't know how I would verify 3)...
upper pilot
#

I went for the usually tried-and-true method of restarting my computer and...still the same. sadgrub If it's not one thing it's another...

runic oriole
#

delete the hkinstaller folder inside tmp

#

and all mods inside Mods

upper pilot
#

Not finding an hkinstaller folder in any tmp I can find. Where do I go for that?

runic oriole
#

hkmodinstaller, something like that

#

if there isn't one, then that's fine

upper pilot
#

Right now I have another (fresh) install of Hollow Knight. Should be nothing mod-related in it.

runic oriole
#

ok

upper pilot
#

My C:\Users------\AppData\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight folder does have some ModdingApi.GlobalSettings files in there (one a .json file, the other a backup)

runic oriole
#

nah, that's fine

upper pilot
#

Awright then, awaiting what I need to do, ready when you are

runic oriole
#

uhhh

#

try the installer?

upper pilot
#

Oh OK, I'm back, sorry for the late reply. Anyway, it's now...working! Whatever was causing problems before...well I hope I don't encounter another one. I can fall off an edge without a health bar disappearing AND kill an Oblobble without the game crashing, amazing! But really though, whatever tweak you did, and the tweaks you have been doing, have been of great help. Appreciate everything you've done so far for this, @runic oriole - many, many thanks! happygrub

runic oriole
#

happygrub glad to hear it works!

novel bronze
#

I can't seem to get the link in the pinned messages for the modinstaller to work, it always just says something about the Microsoft NET framework, any ideas?

versed needle
#

People tend to be able to help with errors better if you give them exactly instead of paraphrasing

novel bronze
#

oh and of course now it works lol

runic oriole
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

hot wigeon
#

in the enemies hp bar mod

#

do bosses have hp bars too

tiny blade
#

yes

hot wigeon
#

so does absolute radiance have an hp bar? (since wiki isnt telling how much hp she has)

tiny blade
#

yes

hot wigeon
#

is a number in the hp bar?

#

or just a bar

tiny blade
#

no

#

just a bar

hot wigeon
#

k

tiny blade
#

absrad has 2.5k hp

hot wigeon
#

huh

#

well sht

#

im going to die

tiny blade
#

haven't checked how much health she has in beta

hot wigeon
#

i dont think it changed

#

they didnt say in the logs

tiny blade
#

it changed

hot wigeon
#

welp thx

#

oh

#

well still thx

covert oasis
#

Is 2.5k her actual HP or how much you have to whittle down to get to the finishing phase

tiny blade
#

so she technically has 3k hp

#

but she dies when she gets to 500

#

so you have to do 2.5k damage to kill her

covert oasis
#

Alright

runic cave
#

I got lightbringer and now when I open hollow knight it's just the hollow knight curser and a black screen wtf

gloomy crater
#

seems like you installed it correctly

#

have fun

runic cave
#

I had a 81% completion trying to get 100 zote

runic oriole
#

use the installer in pins

tiny blade
#

damn too bad you cant access your saves ever again

runic cave
#

I dunno how

#

Do I open it?

#

When I try it says windows protected your pc

tiny blade
#

maybe its a virus

#

gradow explain

runic oriole
#

maybe it is

tiny blade
#

😡

gloomy crater
#

can't trust those modders

runic oriole
#

but that's life, isn't it?

#

everything either is or isn't a virus

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

gloomy crater
#

better manually move .dll files around in your computer

#

to be safe

runic oriole
#

no, veru, why would you do that?

#

that's way too insane

gloomy crater
#

dude the .exe could be a virus

runic oriole
#

well

runic cave
#

The icon for the modinstaller is zote
proof I have it at least

runic oriole
#

yolo right?

#

m8 it's fine

#

think about it

#

it's pinned in this channel

#

why would we pin it if it were a virus?

tiny blade
#

because you want to hack them

runic oriole
#

no

#

we have to spread the infection

runic cave
#

Am I supposed to open it tho?

tiny blade
#

no just leave it there

runic oriole
#

you are

gloomy crater
#

no just put the .exe in Mods folder

#

it should do the work from there

#

telepathically communicate the mods you want to the installer

#

wait 30 seconds

#

bam ur done

runic cave
covert oasis
#

tbh just put the modinstaller in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight

runic cave
#

Hollow knight - 0% zote

#

It's been installing for half an hour

runic oriole
#

is that steam?

covert oasis
#

how bad is your internet

#

yeah

runic cave
#

500kb per second hollowwoke

#

Bad

covert oasis
#

so is mine

runic cave
#

1% per half hour it seems for now zote

covert oasis
#

wtf

#

the modinstaller itself is 500 kb wtf

runic cave
#

Shit it's 200kb now notlikequirrel

#

48 mb out of 1.8 gigs succ

#

Never trying this again

covert oasis
#

wait are you reinstalling hollow knight

#

actually hollow knight is 8 gigabytes

runic cave
#

It says on the system page 8 but RN it says 1.8 thinkgrub

covert oasis
#

im pretty sure the download is just super compressed

#

idk i haven't downloaded the game in about 10 months

runic cave
#

I started at 8:45 it's now 9:14

#

1 hour 27 minutes till done succ

#

If I have my save files I'd be hella happy

runic oriole
#

why did you uninstall it anyway

runic cave
#

Because even after deleting the mod files it still had a black screen when I loaded it up

#

Oh my, 14kb a sec maggot

potent atlas
#

there's a feature on Steam called verify game files

#

it repairs your game

gloomy crater
#

woah really

potent atlas
#

no it's actually a virus

glass meteor
hard drift
#

newtonsoft-jayson.dll won't load

#

neither will Grimmchild upgrades

glass meteor
#

delete it ez

hard drift
#

wow thank you

#

I am now enlightened

noble basin
#

grimmchild broke because the version in the drive doesn't work when you have broken assemblies and newtonsoft is a broken assembly

#

I fixed it in the latest version but it hasn't made it to the drive yet because I'm lazy

viral stratus
#

baby broke

runic cave
#

Ok iss all downloaded
How TF do I add mods

tiny blade
#

📌

runic cave
#

"couldn't locate Hollow Knight installation folder!
Please use the button below to select it."
Dunno where that would be

glass meteor
#

it's almost like it's in pins

runic cave
#

I mean it is but I don't understand GWempOof

glass meteor
#

the folder which your hk exe is in

#

just select that

#

if you're using steam properties => browse local files or whatever

runic cave
#

So just the folder "Hollow Knight"?

glass meteor
#

yes

runic cave
glass meteor
#

click ok

#

double click the top of the window to shrink it

runic cave
#

Ok

glass meteor
#

uhhhh

runic cave
glass meteor
#

nice

runic cave
#

Now how do install the actual mods?

glass meteor
#

hit install?

runic cave
#

Ok?

glass meteor
runic cave
#

Wuts some good ones?

runic oriole
#

why u break my installer 56

glass meteor
runic cave
#

What am I supposed to do with zips?

runic oriole
#

wut

runic cave
#

Like how am I supposed to use the API with zip files?

glass meteor
#

are you sure you have the latest installer

runic oriole
#

you're not?

#

you're not supposed to touch zips at all

runic cave
#

Then why TF is lightbringer a zip file

runic oriole
#

it is not

#

I'm confused

#

are you using the installer?

#

you literally only click a button

runic cave
#

Extract?

glass meteor
#

double click the installer

runic cave
glass meteor
#

if you hit manually does it prompt you

runic oriole
#

go to appdata/local and delete the ModInstaller folder

runic cave
runic oriole
#

do you even listen to what we're saying?

runic cave
#

I'm not really that good with a computer so I guess no

runic oriole
#

ok

#

press the windows button and the R key

runic cave
#

Ok

runic oriole
#

that should open a "Run" dialogue

runic cave
#

Yeah it did

runic oriole
#

ok

#

type %APPDATA%

runic cave
#

Ok

runic oriole
#

and then hit enter

runic cave
#

Ok

#

I'm there

runic oriole
#

go to Local

#

and delete the ModInstaller folder

runic cave
#

Ok

runic oriole
#

now try running the installer again

runic cave
#

Ok

runic oriole
#

and select the Hollow Knight folder

#

also, it's very weird that it's unable to find it on its own

glass meteor
#

D:/SteamLibrary

runic oriole
#

oh

#

that explains it

runic cave
#

Yeah it's on my 2nd drive

runic oriole
#

no, the issue is with SteamLibrary

#

it's coded to check all drives

runic cave
runic oriole
#

why do you have no connection?

#

and how old is you installer version?

glass meteor
#

yeah no internet is gonna fuck it

#

but also it should def ask for offline mode

runic cave
#

It does

runic oriole
#

wait

#

it does ask?

#

and what did you select?

runic cave
#

I chose offline mode

runic oriole
#

tell me

#

why tf are you offline?

runic cave
#

I'm moving

real jacinth
#

they want to download the mods while offline

versed needle
#

How did you even send a proper screenshot with no internet?

#

You would have to like move it to your phone

runic cave
#

Only connection that I could do I teather it to my phone

runic oriole
#

great, I just tested and your issue is caused entirely by being offline

runic cave
#

Welp I spent a lot of gigs on downloading hollow knight again so fukk I'll go over 10 but who cares

versed needle
#

You have 587 messages in steam

#

Hold up

#

Wtf

runic oriole
#

^

glass meteor
#

^

runic oriole
#

and 3 games

glass meteor
#

if you have the lightbringer zip you can extract it

#

it'll have hollow_knight_Data/Managed/Mods

#

just move the dll in there to your mods folder

runic cave
glass meteor
#

nice

runic cave
#

^^^ k

tame tulip
#

saving money

runic cave
#

where would i put mod folder? managed?

glass meteor
#

your own Mods folder

runic cave
#

i was asking where i would put it, ik that

glass meteor
#

??

#

put what

#

you take the dll out of the zip and put it in your mods folder

runic oriole
#

the mods folder is in Manged, yeah

glass meteor
#

^

runic cave
glass meteor
#

yeah that's fine

#

if you boot the game it should work

#

i think

runic cave
#

ok

runic oriole
#

no

#

you need the api

#

and modcmoon

glass meteor
#

oh right modcommon

#

he has the api tho

#

i think

runic cave
#

Failed to load

#

Modcmoon?

glass meteor
#

modcommon

#

ye

#

it's another mod

#

install it the same way as you did lightbringer

runic cave
#

Ok

#

Where, on the drive?

glass meteor
#

yeah it's on the drive

runic cave
#

I don't see it thinkgrub

#

is this good?

#

Charmingmod and randomizer failed to load

glass meteor
#

both aren't updated

runic cave
#

It's only 2 mods so idc

#

Ok

#

My cutscenes are lagging thinkgrub

glass meteor
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

runic cave
#

I wunna see a mod with the quality of the base game
But that'd be hard

noble basin
#

lul like that'll ever happen

glass meteor
#

rando2 is super polished imo

#

asking for a friend, does pasting over hollow_knight_Data erase/replace your saves?

noble basin
#

no

glass meteor
#

no

noble basin
#

also myla simulator mod when?

#

I'm seriously tempted to... fuck I just realized I forgot to update the modstats for today and now I'm 5 hours late

#

I don't have any way to parse the data but it could be parsed neatly if you wanna write a script for it or something 56

#

wtf modcommon with only 13 downloads vs modding api 61

#

I'm 100% convinced someone was fucking with me before

glass meteor
#

it's bc gradow changed the installer

#

to always install modcommon beforehand

noble basin
#

no after he changed the installer for around 4 days it was still being weird

#

and now today I'm getting normal numbers

glass meteor
#

people not updating their installers maybe

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

noble basin
#

I suspect the url to the modcommon got online and it was crawled or something actually

glass meteor
#

or it was kurosh

#

ez

noble basin
#

but anyway I think you have access to all the logs if you wanna find a way to parse them if you care about those stuff and want actual accurate data and not this shit

So since this is the modding-help place I guess I'll start here.. I want to mod hollow knight, as in, try to produce a mod for others to enjoy in it, but I am not sure where to start, I don't have many past-experiences and I am sure if it proves extremely difficult it will be a short-lived interest of mine, but still a spark is there to produce something. How does one do it?

novel bronze
#

novel bronze
#

glass meteor

glass meteor
#

#

@noble basin save game save when

novel bronze
#

also, what is the SpeedBroke mod in the QoL modpack

#

"pack"

glass meteor
#

lets you do some speedrunning stuff which was patched out

#

i.e storage and menu drop

novel bronze
#

oh makes sense

#

so you can speedrun the most recent version

glass meteor
#

i mean you can't submit modded runs

novel bronze
#

true, but you can still get the achievements

glass meteor
#

yeah

tiny blade
#

you can if they dont find out it's modded GWfroggyWeSmart

glass meteor
#

also not having menu drop is just pain

novel bronze
#

you'd get banned from the site lol

tiny blade
#

not if they dont find out

#

#

i just used debug to noclip through everything

novel bronze
tiny blade
#

novel bronze
#

mmhmmm

#

ill try

tiny blade
#

its ok as long as it stays in the modding channels they wont find out

#

they dont read them

vivid flicker
#

mk so i installed 753's mod a while ago, and when i changed back to my old save for some reason soul eater cost 1 charm slot and shaman stone cost 4

#

this is probably because the mod changed it for the charms in place had different costs

#

and when i changed to my old backup they didnt revert to their original cost

#

any idea on how to fix?

glass meteor
#

while ago meaning

vivid flicker
#

around the time Grimme Troupe was released, i left hollow knight soon after

#

i didnt use shaman stone back then nor soul eater so i didnt know

#

now that i've returned for godmaster i just noticed

#

well before i left hollow knight until godmaster released, thats when i went back to my backup for hollow knight

glass meteor
#

What mods do you recommend?

Are there any good ones without the modinstaller?

glass meteor
#

all of them

runic cave
#

I'm not playing a mod that makes my attacks have a boop sound hollowwoke

glass meteor
novel bronze
#

uh I have 11 charm notches yet I haven't killed Grimm

sharp hinge
#

You must have. You wouldn't mean Nightmare King would you?

novel bronze
#

no

sharp hinge
#

Normal grimm gives a notch, nightmare king doesn't.

novel bronze
#

neither

sharp hinge
#

Oh. Well of course modding in ways to cheat it in will do it.

novel bronze
#

I didn't mod it in a way to cheat it in lol

glass meteor
#

disabling infinite notches will just give you 12

novel bronze
#

thats why im questioning things

noble basin
#

lul infinite notches is shit meme code

novel bronze
#

welp

noble basin
#

if you disable it it sets your notches to 11

#

just edit your save file

vestal kelp
#

is enemy randomizer updated

glass meteor
#

no but it still works

vestal kelp
#

oh sad

glass meteor
#

so like

#

everything but new enemies

novel bronze
#

yeah ill just use 10 so that I don't have to deal with that

noble basin
#

no random enemies in the new areas

vestal kelp
#

works for me

novel bronze
#

is boss rush updated

glass meteor
#

yeah it's called pantheon of hallownest

vestal kelp
#

#

it's in a secret area in the waterways

novel bronze
#

tiny blade

tiny blade

if oro and mato give you trouble prac them in the hog

novel bronze
#

I get to the brooding mawlek pretty oconsistently

#

but dying since I decided to wait until I could like 8 hit the main one so I never learned its moveset ;-;

noble basin
#

consider:

mop, quick slash, strength

#

those 3 charms make the game objectively a lot easier

novel bronze
#

mop?

noble basin
#

mark of pride

novel bronze
#

ah yeah

vestal kelp
#

is the godmaster api on the drive yet

noble basin
#

it's only been there for about 3 weeks

vestal kelp
#

shit

noble basin
#

but also... modinstaller

vestal kelp
#

i don't use installers

#

most of the time

noble basin
#

well uh I think at least that I updated both the drive and my website versions of the api and the modcommon

#

3 week old me wasn't that much of a dungo I hope

vestal kelp
#

3 week old you is probably a dungo but 3 weeks ago you is probably not

runic cave
#

What mod is it that makes your nail some ranged attack like that charm you by finding all the grubs?

tiny blade
#

lightbringer

runic cave
#

Ik that makes it a project but I mean like the charm you get from grub boi

noble basin
#

lightbringer

runic cave
#

I don't have lightbringer on so no

daring peak
#

lightbringer

runic cave
#

My fukin god

noble basin
#

uh I guess grubberfly makes it so you shoot grubberfly shots

#

but that's vanilla

real jacinth
#

Lightbringer

runic cave
#

I don't have it equiped or have it GWfroggySadCat

noble basin
#

what mods do you have?

tiny blade
#

inb4 lightbringer

potent atlas
#

inb4 Lightbringer

tiny blade
daring peak
runic cave
#

I have lightbringer but it's not enabled
Enabled are:
Charm notch mod
Infinite grimm

tiny blade
#

send screenshot of your mods folder imo

noble basin
#

if you only disabled lightbringer in the modding api it's possibly still somewhat enabled

real jacinth
#

Or top left of title screen

tiny blade
#

^ also

noble basin
#

the modding api disabling thing isn't 100% functional plus it's up to the modders to make disabling work properly

vestal kelp
#

angle apparently 3 weeks ago you is a dungo because the api didn't work

noble basin
#

and 56 might have gotten lazy

daring peak
#

what

#

i used the api when it came out

#

worked fine

noble basin
#

it doesn't work on beta @vestal kelp

real jacinth
#

Lemme guess.... You're on beta

vestal kelp
#

i'm not on beta

noble basin
#

and it WON'T work on beta because TC refuses to release beta to anything besides windows 😠

real jacinth
#

And it's showing top left

tiny blade
#

😠

daring peak
#

😠

potent atlas
#

it took them like a month to get CP2 on anything but Windows iirc

vestal kelp
potent atlas
#

just give in to the monopoly already guys

noble basin
#

if you disabled it in the mod installer it will be fully disabled but if you disabled it in the menu then it might not be @runic cave

runic cave
#

I really don't think it's lightbringer

glass meteor
#

it should tbh

#

do you have a lance

tiny blade
#

my guy there is no other mod that does what you are describing

noble basin
#

ofc it should but keep in mind monomod hook unloading is slightly broken

real jacinth
#

And you're the tech expert right? So zero chance yeah?

runic cave
#

The projectile is way different than the one when lightbringer is on

noble basin
#

remember the monomod guy himself said that.

real jacinth
#

Coding expert?

glass meteor
#

yeah it's still a bug

#

should be fixed next update tbh

potent atlas
#

Lightbringer's lance is so high quality they can't even tell it's actually just elegy

real jacinth
#

Lel

vestal kelp
#

yeah api 🅱roke

noble basin
#

hmmm

real jacinth
#

Show top left of screen

glass meteor
#

have u tried

#

the installer

real jacinth
#

And modlog

vestal kelp
#

no but i will try installer

real jacinth
#

And outputlog

#

Sheesh

noble basin
#

(also we need to fix some time and by we I mean not me because I'm lazy, the fact that disabling mods in the modding api doesn't persist when you restart the game.)

potent atlas
#

I have an idea for a fix

runic cave
potent atlas
#

remove disabling mods in the api

noble basin
#

eww why did it detect grimmchild upgrades but grimmchild upgrades is disabled

#

no

#

this is bad

#

dissable it in installer

#

pls

#

trust me disabling it mostly seems to work properly for my mods but I cannot confirm it does for literally anyone else's mods

#

and disabling it isn't done by the API, it's done by the mod itself

#

so if the mod has a bug in it then it won't be disabled in reality

#

importantly

#

Disabling does not actually unload the assembly, or the mod itself. It just runs a function in the mod which is supposed to turn off any behaviors

tiny blade
noble basin
#

(also if you don't do try catch on each and every unloading of a monomod hook it might fail. this could be why say lightbringer wasn't fully disabled)

tiny blade
#

interesting

glass meteor
#

no that's fixed

runic cave
#

All I'm asking is wat mod does it
I might remove infsnite Grimm to see if that works

glass meteor
#

also they don't even have lightbringer

tiny blade
#

lightbringer

vestal kelp
#

is normal rando updated tho

tiny blade
#

no

vestal kelp
#

oh sad

noble basin
#

it's not fixed in the monomod hooks that the modding api is using unless you updated it @glass meteor

glass meteor
#

i did

noble basin
#

to the drive as well (for dungos like banan)?

glass meteor
#

An aoe attack that hits up and down as well as left and right

#

Essentially turning you into the sawblade

daring peak
#

you mean sly ph2

covert oasis
#

yes

sharp hinge

@royal wharf The Randomizer mod doesn't work, it says to check ModLog.txt which I have found but do not understand. Does it not work with the latest versions of Hollow Knight and the Modding API or do I need to downgrade?

novel bronze
#

okay, thank you!

#

sorry for pinging you firzen

royal wharf
#

I like this

#

people should be afraid of pinging me

#

bwahahahahaha

#

Genuinely fine with that ping though, asked a specific question, put in the logfile to give enough info

#

Good job @novel bronze

versed needle
#

But it's a mod you have nothing to do with

royal wharf
#

I mean, I wrote the original version

#

I think it's weird that they'd pick out my name, but at the same time it must be somewhere there, dunno

#

Anyway, gotta go buy groceries. I'm already late for the Starfallen dev stream

Does anyone know how to use the hollow knight save manager.. I can't seem to get it to work.

#

I have it running, I just can't get the changes to save.

runic oriole

minor ledge
#

yeah. but do i make the edits then close out of that menu and do the save.

#

sorry ;~;

runic oriole
#

no, in that menu you can just click File -> Save

#

failing that, you can manually edit your save

minor ledge

how?

#

in the editing menu there is no save button..

Hello, I was wondering if Lightbringer mod was still available or if it was broken

tiny blade
#

it's avaliable

daring peak
#

it's also available

honest berry
#

wait

distant wasp
#

It works with latest build ? Thanks I will try it in my next run then.

honest berry
#

What's ALSO avalible.

tiny blade
#

it doesn't work on beta

daring peak

distant wasp
#

I don't think I'm on beta

honest berry
#

Rigghhhht.

normal pike
#

Are reshade options a mod?

real jacinth
#

no

#

like to custom shade your character? no

#

there is the mod "invert knight" which changes things a little. but that just puts a filter on your character and abilities and is not customizable

solar cloud
#

so I downgraded my version to 1.3.1.5 and the game was startable. After copying now the randomizer v2, ModCommon and the 1.3.1.5 API Im stuck on this screen https://i.imgur.com/sXkwTvE.jpg

#

not sure what I did wrong

real jacinth
#

Probably the wrong version of one of them

#

Most likely modcommon

#

a lot of people have had to clear their registries too for it to work.
which, just to warn you, will delete all game progress, including backgrounds, local cheevos, etc.

solar cloud
#

thanks mick

glass meteor
#

nice

solar cloud
#

modcommon was the culprit

real jacinth
#

now.... hopefully you wake up at benches

solar cloud
#

hm?

real jacinth
#

....you'll see

solar cloud
#

want me to rest and die for testing?

real jacinth
#

if you want.

#

it's not gonna really tell me anything new

#

if you can't wake up at a bench, gonna have to clear registry to fix. which will delete all progress

solar cloud
#

nah it works, woke up at a bench

#

after dying

real jacinth
#

try save and quit

solar cloud
#

yea works

real jacinth
#

kk good

solar cloud
#

is there somewhere a discription for the settings? what includes which skip

real jacinth
#

the code

solar cloud
#

all bosses include DLC and dream bosses?

real jacinth
#

yes

novel bronze
#

@solar cloud which modcommon version did you need in the end?

real jacinth
#

the one that says it's for 1.3.1.5

novel bronze
#

that makes sense.

solar cloud
#

on the drive folder its markeed with "old"

#

so yea

Hey guys can I still use the Bonfire mod on the Godmaster edition?

I got a copy of the mod, but it says its outdated in the description.Is there a new version of it or will it work just fine?

glass meteor

did you use the installer

ripe hornet
#

I havent yet.Actually dont have time during the week.Will try it on weekend.Just trying to save time in the meanwhile....

coral nebula
#

Quick question, been meaning to play the chainsaw nail mod (Exaltation and the charm glorification mod, thing is crazy), but it seems even downloading the mod manager crashes my game before I even get to the "don't quit the game when x and y symbol pops up" screen. For reference, I've used the mod manager from this thread. https://www.reddit.com/r/HollowKnight/comments/9ekk09/introducing_the_exaltation_mod_glorify_charms_as/

Is this an issue with the version of it, or is it my fault ? Verifying game cache makes the game playable, reinstalling the manager screws it up again.

Don't be on beta

Aw, I'll miss it. Thanks, will try !

Is it just me or doesn't the Randomizer Mod work anymore?

Hey, I'd love to have the simple randomizer mod. I watched a stream of it and it seems like so much fun and a challenge as well! Could someone please walk me through the steps? I suck at this, so please be patient.

#

have you tried uninstalling skynet?

real jacinth
#

should only say it's a virus

#

which is false

#

cuz it's actually a trojan

topaz peak
#

ok, gotta select my HK installation path

noble basin
#

hold on I'ma upload modinstaller to virustotal for fun

what

real jacinth
glass meteor
#

nice

noble basin
#

antiviruses are actually crap tho. if you ever look into how they work you will realize this and also realize that we're all basically fucked when it comes to checking if something has viruses.
