I’m having trouble getting the debug mod to work, the modding api is working fine but the actual debug mod isn’t showing up
[reposting because I'm not sure if anyone saw/answered]

real jacinth
#

Did you use the installer?

#

Are you on the beta?

dawn plover
#

not on the beta iirc, dunno about any installer

real jacinth
#

Pins

#

Here

#

📌

dawn plover
#

will do that

#

thank

rough hawk
#

@glass meteor There's no text in the upper left, but I'm in the menu screen.

#

Does it have to be the pause menu specifically, or does the title screen suffice?

glass meteor
#

either

rough hawk
#

Sorry, meant in title screen 😛

glass meteor
#

weird

rough hawk
#

Alright how about this

runic oriole
#

then you don't have any mods installed, including api

rough hawk
#

I just nuke my HK folder from orbit and then reinstall it

runic oriole
#

if you had, there would be text

rough hawk
#

How do I do that while preserving my saves?

real jacinth
#

No text means no mods

glass meteor
#

just uninstall hk and install

real jacinth
#

Saves are stored elsewhere

glass meteor
#

shouldn't affect savees

#

just verify game integrity tho

untold elm
#

okay, so I have the 1.2.2.1 api but how do I open the mod list part of it after installing it?

runic oriole
#

you don't

#

first, you get the installer from pins

untold elm
#

oof

runic oriole
#

and after that...

#

actually, that's all there is to it

tiny blade
#

installer doesn't work on 1.2.2.1 does it

runic oriole
#

wait

#

are you playing on 1221?

untold elm
#

yes

runic oriole
#

ok then

glass meteor
#

they're running nmg

runic oriole
#

that changes things

tiny blade
runic oriole
#

well, dlk

#

many people get the 1221 api from the drive thinking it's the current api

#

idk why

#

but they do

#

anyway

untold elm
#

wait, I figured it out

#

I'm just dumb

runic oriole
#

oh ok

real jacinth
#

daring peak
#

normal pike
#

ty

#

wait

#

all my mods are gone

#

aaahhhhh does modinstaller not have the newest api

runic oriole
#

wut

#

I just launched the game and it was fine

normal pike
#

hm

runic oriole
#

relaunch the installer maybe?

normal pike
#

im using modinstaller

#

and downloading api

#

ok

#

oh shoot

#

my steam mustve not been done updating

#

when i launched the api

#

thanks gradow sorry about the dumb question

runic oriole
#

don't worry about it

#

if you have any suggestions about the installer, please feel free to tell me!

normal pike
#

thx

#

if anything maybe make the readmes built in? if that's possible? other than that it's fantastic!

versed needle
#

Make the donate button bigger

normal pike
#

lol

normal pike
#

is there a way tomake bindings mod like

#

*to make

#

glass meteor
#

no

normal pike
#

Ok thx

#

uh

#

interesting bug

#

i have bindings and debug mod instaleld

#

*installed

#

every time i try to rest at a bench

#

i lose the ability to control my knight

#

like have him move or attack

glass meteor
#

uhh

#

remove bindings i need to update that

normal pike
#

ok

normal pike
#

is there a way to configure randomizer to only modify charm locations and not upgrades?

versed needle
#

Why would you even want that?

#

It would be just like playing the game normally

#

Except you maybe wouldn't have shaman stone

normal pike
#

idk i kind of want to do a run where it's the same path but i get to use diff charms

#

while randomizing enemies

#

if that's not a possibility though that's fine

tiny blade

Make it unbeatable

#

Maybe I should be the dev here

daring peak
#

yeah sean make qol work

versed needle

tiny blade
#

b0ne

silk pagoda
#

Erm, excuse me but I would like to ask a question
Is there a way to add a mod to the Switch version of Hollow Knight?

tiny blade
#

no

real jacinth
#

yes.

#

but not realistically

marsh glacier
#

how do I use the mod installer

weary kindle
#

What exactly do you mean by how

#

Are you having trouble with a specific part?

marsh glacier
#

yes

#

with the whole thing

#

I have no idea what to do after downloading it

real jacinth
#

You run it

#

It's a program

#

You run the program

marsh glacier
#

how do I fix this error?

runic oriole
#

which error?

marsh glacier
tiny blade
#

f1

daring peak
#

is this buy the game part 3

runic oriole
#

close the installer and try again

marsh glacier
#

Same issue

runic oriole
#

well, something on your end is preventing the installer to be run

#

check if it's open in the task manager

marsh glacier
#

Did that

#

should i end process?

runic oriole
#

yup

marsh glacier
#

same issue

runic oriole
#

delete that file and get the one from the pins here

marsh glacier
#

ok

#

that worked

runic oriole
#

great!

toxic fjord
#

is there a mod for practicing all bindings on bosses?

tiny blade
#

yes it's called bindings

#

disclaimer it may or may not be broken on the new update

toxic fjord
#

is it in mod DB? can't seem to find it there

tiny blade
#

it's in the installer

toxic fjord
#

thanks a lot

gloomy crater
#

is it in mod DB sadgrub

clear mist
#

Where can I find the mod log? :p

gloomy crater
#

it's chopped down in the mod forest

marsh glacier
#

what is the qol mod

real jacinth
#

adds back speedrun stuffs

#

and skips cutscenes

#

and breaks monomon

marsh glacier
#

what about redwing?

real jacinth
#

you could just read the readmes

#

or read the pin here that says what they all do

#

the installer even has a button to read the readmes

#

how handy

weary kindle
#

What does the "Art" mod, Bindings mod, and Darkness mod do?

noble basin
#

readmes

weary kindle
#

Darkness doesn't have one

safe canopy
#

if its darkmod

#

it makes every room dark

glass meteor
#

it is

weary kindle
#

ok

copper pumice
#

Mod manager seems to say my file path is invalid. What do?

glass meteor
#

buy the game

copper pumice
#

I did lol

noble basin
#

did purple make an alt discord account for some reason?

tiny blade
#

whomst?

noble basin
#

purple pyrOZ

#

their name looks exactly the same

copper pumice
#

I just got a computer literally yesterday. I'm not familiar with Windows 10, I'm probably doing something wrong tbh

noble basin
#

install linux

#

but like unironically that might solve some of your problems if not create a few others

#

for serious advice uh why not try your print screen button to show us the path you are selecting @copper pumice

copper pumice
#

Got it working. I was just tired and doing stupid shit lol

lucid shoal
#

Can somebody help me with textures to my mod?

versed needle
#

You mean help with getting them ingame or "help" as in drawing them for you?

lucid shoal
#

Draw. Well.

#

I ca write much as i can but graphic

#

Neh

versed needle
#

Good luck

#

Nobody is gonna draw for you, I imagine

lucid shoal

#

I cant dash and im invincible. How to fix?

tame tulip
#

mods?

marsh glacier
#

redwing, bonfire, grimmchild, qol

marsh glacier
#

How doi I customized Redwing?

copper pumice
#

So.. Is it true that running any mod requires 8gb ram? I have only 6

safe canopy
#

no its only enemy randomizer that requires any substantial extra ram

grave pasture
#

Hey i'm new here and when I tried to install the redwing and blackmoth mods it didn't work.

#

I tried installing the API too

grave pasture
#

NVM got them to work

#

I accidentaly forgot to replace the assembly

copper pumice
#

My game crashes when replacing the api file with the modded one. Just doesn't work

runic oriole
#

@grave pasture use the installer in pins. It also doubles as a manager and list of all available mods

#

@copper pumice ^

tiny blade
#

wow pinging people left and right

runic oriole
#

@tiny blade and center

silk tendon
#

guys, i need help with the installer, as i undestand, a .modbundle file is made by changing the .zip, right? when i try to import it i get the error
Couldn't load mod bundle:
entry

#

any ideas please?

real jacinth
#

just download the installer in pins, run the exe

#

profit

noble basin
#

wtf is a .modbundle

silk tendon
#

@real jacinth what do you mean by downloading the installer in pins?

real jacinth
noble basin
#

wtf is this installer

real jacinth
noble basin
#

I've literally never seen it before

#

no really does anyone recognize this?

real jacinth
#

that's a very very very very old one

#

like.... very very very old

#

no clue where tf you even found that

silk tendon
#

in a link in a readme of the drive with the mods

noble basin
#

why does it look so shitty?
why does it look like a windows only c# program?
who even made it?

real jacinth
#

k. well don't use it

#

use the one here

#

in pins

#

📌

#

the symbol up there

silk tendon
#

sure

noble basin
#

waitasecond... is this your thing @runic oriole ???

silk tendon
#

thanks

safe canopy
#

it might be zreshcts

#

if it uses modbundles

#

but thats like, over a year old

crimson zinc
#

Any help with ModInstaller? Wherever I put the file, I get the same error.

noble basin
#

run as admin or redownload

crimson zinc
#

Did both, same problem.

real jacinth
#

did you press continue?

crimson zinc
real jacinth
#

also, why is it called "modinstaller.1.exe"

vocal laurel
real jacinth
#

where did that 1 come from

crimson zinc
real jacinth
#

did you download it from here

#

in pins

crimson zinc
#

Err, no. I didn't know that was a thing.

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

Thanks

real jacinth
#

dunno if that moddb version is up to date

#

try the one here

crimson zinc
#

Works. Cheers!

real jacinth
#

👍

#

Okay Geo, your turn I guess? Looks like the API is failing to load. What'd you do to install the things

rapid hemlock
#

Have any mods been updated to the latest version?

low heart
#

all of them practically

sudden sand
#

Oh damn, didn't know hollow knight was moddable OoO"
How do you guys mod this awesome game and how do the developers are thinking about it owo ?

real jacinth
#

you mod it by writing new code. and the devs don't care

low heart
#

pretty sure they do care but they're too busy with adding more features at the expense of readability

real jacinth
#

they've given the modders a heads-up before updates that a lot of things are changing

sudden sand
#

ah okay and how far does the modding go and how does an update effect a mod =3 ?

real jacinth
#

plus one of their QA testers, Graig, plays with them

#

TC themselves has even played with them before

#

updates break the mods til the API is updated for changes, then they work again

#

and dunno how to answer your first part

#

"how far does modding go."

#

kinda a strange question

sudden sand
#

sry for that ^^"
Well i mean, is it possible to change the levels and create bosses like if you have the assets to do so ?

real jacinth
#

anything is possible

#

just depends on how much you want to work on it

sudden sand
#

okay and do you use unity for the modding it'self or other tools to get the changes in ?

real jacinth
#

that's more of a question for the actual modders

#

depends on what you want to do

sudden sand
#

for example creating a new boss and also a new area for this boss, how would you head into that stuff =3 ?
And sry for asking so much btw D="

real jacinth
#

well you'd have to code the boss, code the area, and then insert the area into the game

#

and have assets for all of that

sudden sand
#

neat so i there a tutorial for modding the game owo ?
that may answers things i have in mind that i'm cleary not get out like i mean them ^^"
English is my second language so i struggle a little with it o///o

real jacinth
sudden sand
#

damn, missed the pins stuff o.o"
sry about that 😮

#

and thanks for answering my questions

runic oriole
#

@sudden sand so far, we haven't done much aside from changing what's already in the game, but that doesn't mean it's not possible

sudden sand
#

Okay sure =3

half tundra
#

Hello everyone. Trying to track down info on mods. mostly which mods are compatible with the current version of HK

tiny blade
#

i think all mods in the installer work

#

gradow removed the ones that didn't work

half tundra
#

well, as far as I can tell, the Fast text mod doesn't work.

tiny blade
#

that one is part of the qol mod now

half tundra
#

ah, should I uninstall it if I have the QoL mod?

tiny blade
#

yeah

half tundra
#

kk, ty.

#

Oh, what is Newtonsoft Json. it was failing to load iirc, so I disabled it. there's no readme

tiny blade
#

@runic oriole remove fasttext from installer

half tundra
#

also, rivatuner fails to load, but I never installed a rivatuner mod

noble basin
#

Newtonsoft Json is a garbage file you can delete

#

as is rivatuner

half tundra
#

ok. I don't see any rivatuner files though

#

trying to figure out InfiniteGrimm/Grimmchild upgrades. it says there's integration, but no details. It says the grimmchild is customizable and there's info in a stats.txt file

#

but none of that stuff exists either as far as I can tell

noble basin
#

stats.txt is on the drive or on the github

sonic shard
#

Is there a particular reason why Hollow Knight isn't on the Nexus?

safe canopy
#

api distributes copyrighted material which is a gray area (we're "allowed" to link it via the discord)
if you can't download the api none of the other mods work, so theres no point listing them anywhere

noble basin
#

also we much too lazy to ask nexus mods to add us

#

we'd have to email them

#

all that stuff

sonic shard
#

I don't have the game, so I didn't new that. That is certainly a hurdle for distribution thought.
I love the artstyle and thought about modding it, but it would be quite harder to make smaller mods to be noticed with a discord-only distribution 😓

versed needle
#

Wow someone wants to make mods without buying the game

#

I think that's a new one

#

Plenty of people try to use them without buying

#

But this here is new ground

sonic shard
#

Well, I would buy the game obviously if I did. I just haven't yet 😅

safe canopy
#

its in next months humble monthly intenseface

#

so you can get hollow knight and some actually good games

noble basin
#

wow it is

#

wow that's not a shit deal

safe canopy
#

there usually not shit deals

#

considering its $10 for usually $200 of games 🤔

wheat shore
#

Bit of a dumb question, but how does one update an installer mod when a new version gets released? Just uninstall and reinstall the mod or what?

daring peak
#

pretty sure the installer just autoupdates it

#

but people have to put the new version in

#

which usually happens really fast anyways

glass meteor
#

yeah the installer will prompt you

wheat shore
#

Ah, okay. Been wondering about that. Thanks.

tiny rose
#

Does the NGG mod not work in the Godhome practice room or does it not work with that update entirely? I have both NGG and the API installed of course.

glass meteor
#

it doesn't work

daring peak
#

dirtmouth kthx

glass meteor
#

if you want to do ngg

#

go to dirtmouth with infinite grimm installed

#

then go to your saves folder and change NGG to true in InfiniteGrimm.GlobalSettings.json

#

and then nkg will be ngg

#

and you don't need gchild w' that

tiny rose
#

Thanks, mang.

stable elm
#

Hi guys, im just trying to set up mods in hollow knight for the first time - if anyone is able to help with basic setup questions id love some assistance (:

runic oriole
#

get installer from pins

#

done

stable elm
#

I did find the mod installer online, I think the one you mean at least, I've been running into an error when I try to use it though

glass meteor
#

use the one in pins

daring peak
#

online =/= pins

stable elm
#

haha okay I'll give it a shot quick, thanks!

#

oh you guys were right, I was just using a bad file I guess? Thanks so much

rapid hemlock
#

Oh you need to use the Installer now? Great....

past crystal
#

@potent atlas
So is that installer you have linked on the db page the updated Lightbringer?

gloomy crater
#

the installer linked in pins is the updated every mod

potent atlas
#

the one linked on moddb should be the same as the pinned

flat fog
#

I wonder if the mod stuff I did loads

green niche
#

how to close bingo board on https://bingosync.com/

real jacinth
#

leave the site

#

or press "disconnect" top right

green niche
#

ok, so it will close automatically then, got you, thanks

noble basin
#

idk if the auto updater doesn't work but I had to manually update to 8.4 (the only change was an added donation button so I wasn't missing much). It's possible that it isn't auto updating if you use the moddb one.

flat fog
#

what does the save editor do? I'm new to modding and stuff

noble basin
#

lets you edit your save files

flat fog
#

what can you do with them specifically?

gloomy crater
#

edit

novel bronze
#

So

#

If I used a mod to remove the void heart from my inventory could I get the original ending?

novel bronze
#

Thanks for the help guys much appreciated 😄

versed needle
#

Ok

#

Same

cunning python
#

Is there a mod that allows you to get more charm notches past 11?

versed needle
#

Save editor

glass meteor
past crystal
#

@potent atlas
I think there might be a bit of confusion because the page still has "(outdated)" in its title

#

Or, a friend of mine is confused, at least

potent atlas
#

that makes sense

past crystal
#

Is it meant to be like that?

potent atlas
#

Fixed it

past crystal
#

Thanks

novel bronze
#

how

#

do i give myself

#

more charm notc

#

ugu ~~

low heart
#

edit save

novel bronze
#

ok im going to look up how to do that

#

but if i cant figure it out then im gonna implode and then come back here

real jacinth
#

get the installer

#

it's here in pins

#

and install infinite notches

#

it's ez

#

it's right here

#

it does it for you

flat fog
#

how do I use the save manager? none of my saves will load up at all and idk what to do

real jacinth
#

you're double clicking the userx.dat files right?

flat fog
#

yes

eager raft
#

can you mod with mac?

#

more importantly

#

what mods can i use

real jacinth
#

yes. just use the installer

eager raft
#

but

flat fog
#

what do I do with these saves? I can't edit them no matter what I do but I want to edit them

eager raft
#

help pls

flat fog
#

I need help too

noble basin
#

wtf mac doesn't have mono now?

#

what version of macos are u on

#

apparently it should come out of the box on 10.9 and above

#

@eager raft

eager raft
#

highhhh

#

sierra

glass meteor
#

install mono kthx

eager raft
#

what

glass meteor
#

install mono kthx

eager raft
#

nani

#

que

glass meteor
#

really makes u think

eager raft
#

is lightbringer compatible with mac? :>

noble basin
#

does the newest mono work on sierra or does it need high sierra

#

also yes

#

wait

#

why would mods not be compatible with mac

glass meteor
#

the old non-api ones weren't

#

cause the dlls differed

#

between mac and windows

noble basin
#

oh but that's because they were done in a shitty way

#

honestly the dlls are still different it's just I'm too lazy to bother getting a linux/mac compatible HK dll since it requires updating monomod in the modding api

glass meteor
#

doesn't it work

noble basin
#

since only now (I think) does monomod compile on linux since the guy broke it a few months ago

glass meteor
#

he fixed it

#

makes u think

#

he even pinged you

#

is this the smartest man alive

noble basin
#

is the fixed included with the modding api?

glass meteor
#

no

#

that would involve me building it

#

200% too much effort

noble basin
#

same tbh

eager raft
#

running package scripts intensifies

noble basin
#

the only thing that doesn't work btw is controllers

#

controllers don't work at all on mac and linux with the windows dll

glass meteor
#

wow nice

eager raft
#

keyboard controls master race

noble basin
#

but sc controller lets you make controllers map their inputs to keyboard buttons

#

so

#

it doesn't matter anyway

eager raft
#

do i need the api

#

if i use installer

glass meteor
#

installer installs the api

eager raft
#

thousand iq

#

im getting cancer

#

sos

glass meteor
#

have you tried a space

#

--arch=32 /Users/garbage/garbage

eager raft
#

my iq is ascending

glass meteor
#

no

flat fog
#

did I screw up my mod installation or something with the save editor---

eager raft
#

alright it gave me an application that isnt responding

#

alright

eager raft
#

i went from the hollow knight app to contents

glass meteor
#

Resources/Data/Managed/

eager raft
#

oh my god

#

thousand iq

#

do i put the mods file in there too

#

or just the assembly file

glass meteor
#

the api Assembly-Charp.dll goes in there

#

make a folder there called Mods

#

and put mods in there

eager raft
#

k

#

nani

glass meteor
#

Lightbringer requires ModCommon

#

do you have that

eager raft
#

nani the heck is mod common

glass meteor
#

.

eager raft
#

o

#

found it

#

lemme see if i can do this without being autistic

untold elm
#

lost lord is hard

#

😐

topaz peak
#

hey, what's the QoL mod do?

#

and in that same vein, the "unofficial HK patch"

untold elm
#

they are just things that are nice to have

#

download and look at readme if you want to know specifics

noble basin
#

unofficial HK patch literally just patches like 3-4 bugs. QoL adds a few neat features some for speedrunners some for normal people.

topaz peak
#

nice.

#

and what's the "charming" mod do?

untold elm
#

download and look at readme lol

#

the best part about qol is infinite path of pain

#

imo

topaz peak
#

but what does the "charming" mod do

#

I'd just like to know

untold elm
#

just download and look at readme lol

tiny blade
#

📌

topaz peak
#

yes, i could do that but unless there's a reason you aren't telling me, i'd like to know before i download

untold elm

Thanks to everyone at #archived-modding-development in hollow knight discord and you for playing our mods.

Have Fun!

#

there you go

#

that's the readme

#

copied into here

topaz peak
#

gathering swarm gathering swarm gathering swarm gathering swarm

#

so the gathering swarm attacks enemies?

untold elm
#

no

#

it attacks the geo clumps

topaz peak
#

oh wow, there's none of those left, but that's awsome

noble basin
#

wow dude you are so generous. the dude is on dialup and pays per megabyte. that charming DLL download would have cost 40 dollars at least but since you pasted the text here they were able to get it for free @untold elm e

untold elm
#

yeah

topaz peak
#

sorry for the mistake. Thanks for being useful because some people just aren't useful in this chat, i find

untold elm
#

lol

#

I know you blocked a fuckton of people here

topaz peak
#

I assume the "bindings" mod is just all bindings all the time or some shit, right?

untold elm
#

I would have just left you with download the thing and read the readme if I didn't already have the api open

#

and it is

topaz peak
#

pff

#

and darkness mod

#

the game is just really dark?

untold elm
#

idk

#

haven't checked it out

topaz peak
#

alright, and "charm notch" mod?

untold elm
#

and it doesn't have a readme

#

makes it so that you automatically get salubra notches

tiny blade
#

📌

untold elm
#

without having to go to her

topaz peak
#

seems pretty useful.

#

she sells 4, right?

untold elm
#

either 3 or 4

topaz peak
#

those extra notches are pretty helpful

#

alright, gonna try a modded save file with QoL and such.

untold elm
#

you get the notches after getting the number of charms needed though

cedar root
#

im trying to play with the randomizer 2 mod, but i can't find a proper readme. could anyone tell me what the restrictions option does? all bosses, all charms and all that.

silk field
#

block me as well @topaz peak

real jacinth
#

Prevents you from entering the egg until you get all those

flat fog
#

can I have help with the save manager please? I looked and nothing works

#

when I double click the saves nothing happens

#

I can show the files- I think I know what’s wrong but I can’t fix it

flat fog
#

please I really need help

runic oriole
#

What exactly do you need?

flat fog
#

Oh wait I actually fixed it

#

nevermind

hearty furnace
runic oriole
#

Yup, that's a known issue

low heart
#

solution: play on keyboard

runic oriole
#

Not like that menu is very important tho

#

It's almost literally useless aside from AA's mods iirc

noble basin
#

no

#

it's literally useless aside from QoL

#

and it's broken anyway

#

because the settings reset everytime you reset the game

#

even tho modding api makes a settings file saving what mods are enabled and disabled it ignores it

whole canopy
#

What's the difference between "Charm notch mod" and "Infinite charm notches", does the first let you control how many charm notches you have?

#

I'm using the mod manager

noble basin
#

no the first one just gives you the salubra things when you have the appropriate amount of charms to unlock them without having you walk back

#

it's the most pointless mod ever imo

whole canopy
#

Ah

#

Thanks

#

Is there any mod that lets me customize how many charm notches I have?

daring peak
#

it's good as a part of rando

tiny blade
#

wdym pointless

#

wtf

runic oriole
#

it's pointless now that it's part of rando2

tiny blade
#

it's so convenient

daring peak
#

really sucks to go back for something so useless

meager comet
#

so what should I do if I wanna join hollow knight randomizer

real jacinth
#

wat

meager comet
#

I saw Xephros playing it on their stream and wanted to try it

runic oriole
#

just download the installer from pins

#

and install the rando from it

meager comet
#

I'm guessing I should copy my hollow knight data

runic oriole
#

not really

#

no need

meager comet
#

well I did anyway and there's nothing you can do about it

glass meteor
meager comet
#

except for the fact that it doesn't seem to be working now

runic oriole
#

what did you do

real jacinth
meager comet
#

I literally just copied and pasted the hollow knight folder from steam/steamapps/common

runic oriole
#

umm

#

Y

meager comet
#

pointed it to the new location and then it downloaded

glass meteor
#

congrats you failed

runic oriole
meager comet
#

cuz I wanna be able to play hollow knight without mods too

daring peak
#

then just

#

unmod it

glass meteor
#

p sure he pointed the installer at the copy

runic oriole
#

you can just disable the mods with the installer, u kno

real jacinth
#

"hmm.... an installer that does all the work for me..... lemme just do random shit."

meager comet
#

that isn't random

real jacinth
#

well... your game isn't working now

runic oriole
#

or, you can just verify the game's files with steam

real jacinth
#

so you tell me

meager comet
#

no the game is fine

real jacinth
meager comet
#

it just isn't modded

runic oriole
#

installer

real jacinth
meager comet
#

yes i did

#

they are up to date

runic oriole
#

"they"?

real jacinth
#

wat

runic oriole
#

just

#

get the installer from pins

#

that's it

meager comet
#

the files

runic oriole
#

you literally don't have to do anything else

meager comet
#

fine i'll do it that way

runic oriole
#

what other way were you doing it before?

meager comet
#

I copied the folder that contained hollow knight from Programfiles(x86)/steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight

runic oriole
#

and where did you paste it?

#

and how would doing that install the randomizer?

meager comet
#

I put in a different area and then pointed the installer to that path

real jacinth
#

well steam is still going to run the one that's in the proper steam location

glass meteor
meager comet
#

right that part

real jacinth
#

^ need taht

meager comet
#

I forgot

glass meteor
#

just put that next to the copy exe

#

and run it

#

big meme

runic oriole
#

that's the most convoluted way of doing it, but ok

#

no need to backup all your game files when you can literally just download them with verify on steam

meager comet
#

let me live my life

runic oriole
#

hey, u do u

#

(even tho that's silly)

meager comet
#

and then i changed my mind because your code doesn't like this

#

so fine it's the only one now

real jacinth
#

The drm from steam is the issue. Not the code

daring peak
#

gradow go fix steam smh

meager comet
#

it worked fine with celeste

real jacinth
#

Oh right, cuz different games always work the same

meager comet
#

that's not what I meant

real jacinth
#

Like I said, it's the drm of steam that made the vanilla version run

meager comet
#

now that that's shit's out of the way what are all these rando options

real jacinth
#

Skip options, end game options, and qol options

runic oriole
#

U kno, being friendly when asking for help goes a long way

#

But I digress

meager comet
#

sorry if I seemed rude

#

did not mean to come off that way

#

thank you for helping timpSLove

low heart
#

seemed rude

gloomy crater

grimmchild machine gun

noble basin
#

I love grimmchild machine gun

#

I said I was doing a GC thing, 56 said he already had and sent me the code

#

and I ended up discarding all of the original code basically

glass meteor
#

congrats

slim axle
#

Hey so I used the Mod installer to download the Debug mod onto my game and now the game just wont load at all? Anyone had the same issues?

real jacinth
#

what patch are you on

slim axle
#

1.2.2.1

real jacinth
#

thats why

slim axle
#

So it just doesn't work on that patch?

daring peak
#

installer is designed for current patch

#

grab mods and the api from the gdrive

untold elm
#

how do I enable ngg? I changed the thing for him to true and it was just normal infinite grimm?

noble basin
#

did you save it?

untold elm
#

yes

noble basin
#

did you edit it while the game was running

untold elm
#

yes but I closed the game after and reopened it

noble basin
#

no

#

you need to close the game

#

edit the save

#

save the file

untold elm
#

oof

noble basin
#

open the game

untold elm
#

okay

#

holy shit ngg is hard to deal with

glass meteor
#

how surprising

untold elm
#

wow, ngg has a really weird anticheese lol

#

I decided to fuck around with invincibility and 3000+ damage per hit

noble basin
#

but it works if you don't cheat

#

so eh

#

good enough

untold elm
#

in randomizer 2 are grimmchild upgrades randomized?

gloomy crater
#

in shitmodst 937925 does 753 actually finish making the mod?

hushed otter
#

how does debug mod work?

#

how to open the menu

real jacinth
#

F1

#

if it wasn't open when the game booted up, it's not installed

hushed otter
#

ah

#

how to unbind something in debug mod?

grim shale
#

im bad at save editing and can't retrigger traitor lord's appearance (with cloth fighting by my side) - rn i have "killedTraitorLord": false,
"killsTraitorLord": 0,
"newDataTraitorLord": false,

#

but he still isnt appearing

#

can anyone tell me the trigger for his appearence and how to refight him (in the queen's gardens) (with cloth)

low heart
#

isn't it easier to grab one of the backups

#

and keep reverting that save

grim shale
#

well i only decided to want to refight traitor lord with cloth after doing like 20 extra hours of gameplay and realising wait didnt cloth want to die

#

i do believe the last time i fought traitor lord (with the exception of the pantheons) was like 20 hours of gameplay and 30% completion ago

low heart
#

oh yeah then the backup is deleted

#

rip

#

also you can't get cloth back like that

grim shale
#

i originally saved cloth tho (she didnt die originally)

low heart
grim shale
#

"metCloth": true,
"clothEnteredTramRoom": true,
"savedCloth": true,
"clothEncounteredQueensGarden": true,
"clothKilled": false,
"clothInTown": false,
"clothLeftTown": false,
"clothGhostSpoken": false,

#

so i basically want cloth to die against the traitor lord but since i already fought him i need to refight him (while cloth is still in Hallownest) but i cant find his refighting trigger

real jacinth
#

it's called a new save file

#

or another save file

#

there's plenty of save files floating around all over

#

just pick one up and do the fight

glass meteor
#

he probably has a persistent bool

daring peak
#

persistent bools start at true

glass meteor
#

no

tiny blade
#

yes

glass meteor
#

tiny blade
#

you must be mistaken

untold elm
#

does anybody have a tracker/map for randomizers?

glass meteor
untold elm
#

thanks

brazen jay
glass meteor
#

probably

#

is there one that's not working for you?

brazen jay
#

i got the first one one to build and the api acknowledged its existence in the upper left, but it didn't seem to do any more damage on the 4th hit looking at the health bar mod
when i tried using debug mod, my nail damage got set to 0 when i loaded the game and none of the LogDebug messages showed up

glass meteor
#

add this after each nail damage set

#

PlayMakerFSM.BroadCastEvent("UPDATE NAIL DAMAGE");

brazen jay
#

doesn't build when I add that: Error CS0117 'PlayMakerFSM' does not contain a definition for 'BroadCastEvent' ExampleMod1

glass meteor
#

*BroadcastEvent

brazen jay
#

that builds

limpid moss
#

enemy rando gets to 94% loading and then game crashes. halp...

#

on current patch

glass meteor
#

do you have enough ram

limpid moss
#

i have 16

glass meteor
#

what gpu do you have

limpid moss
#

nvidia gtx 1080

glass meteor
#

wtf

#

it shouldn't be dying

daring peak
#

1080 maggot

limpid moss
#

got a good deal for it 😄

#

task manager says it only uses 20% memory and 30% cpu. gpu doesn't change

low heart
#

1080 and playing HK

limpid moss
#

holy fuck chaos mode

low heart
#

godspeed

limpid moss
#

never again lol

#

#

shit it worked 😄

glass meteor
#

pog

limpid moss
#

proof chaos mode sucks zote

hushed otter
#

Anyone please make a "Always Fury of the Fallen" mod

sacred sleet
#

is the modloader updated for godmaster?

tiny blade
#

yes

sacred sleet
#

coolio

hushed otter
#

alright fine....

#

I will do it myself ._.

#

though it will take "a while"

brazen jay
#

wanna modify a boss so looking at lost lord source. where are all these fsm parameter names coming from? i'm assuming fsms are extractable? how are people doing that

glass meteor
#

ignore the resources.assets thing if you want to modify bosses

brazen jay
#

ah shit thanks

sour maple
#

trying to practice radiance with bindings mod but it keeps bugging out the fight by me not taking damage and when I fall off into the void I can't get back up. pretty sure its the bindings mod since I tried taking off every other mod I had. just wanted to let you guys know

glass meteor
#

yeah i need to fix that

#

thanks

sour maple
#

let me know when you fix it! I'd really like to practice absrad with bindings

tiny blade
#

use a save editor

#

set your nail damage to 13, your health to 4, don't use charms and only use spells/heal every 3 nail hits

glass meteor
#

nail damage to 3

tiny blade
#

the true bindings experience

glass meteor
#

you can set maxMP to 33

#

idk if the game will kill it

tiny blade
#

oh thats convenient

sour maple
#

where can I get a save editor?

tiny blade
glass meteor
#

if you have qol it saves your saves as .json

tiny blade
#

or use qol with the thing

#

yeah

glass meteor
#

and you can just edit the .json

tiny blade
#

i keep forgetting that's a thing

sour maple
#

what is qol?

tiny blade
#

a mod

sour maple
#

ahh

#

I installed qol, so now how do I edit the .json?

glass meteor
#

just open it in notepad

#

or notepad++

tiny blade
#

or sublime text if you are not a scrub

sour maple
#

ahh okay

glass meteor
#

*vim

sour maple
#

welp, tried to edit the nail damage and health numbers, but now my save won't show up?

sour maple
#

I'm worried now if I lost my save because I'm trying to bring it back up but to no avail

hushed otter
#

I have already added the reference

#

nvm...

sour maple
#

still need help with my save :c if anyone knows what might help, pls let me know. would hate to lose that save

hushed otter
#

always back up your save

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

ALWAYS

sour maple
#

well yeah, that certainly helps a lot right now. the only thing I did was edit a file someone told me about, I mean, I do have the backup file the game makes but I tried everything with it and it still doesnt show up

hushed otter
#

@sour maple tried...un-editing it?

sour maple
#

yeah, of course

#

still didn't show up

hushed otter
#

you sure you placed your save file in the correct location?

sour maple
#

yeah, all the saves are here, user1, user2, user3 etc

#

appdata\locallow\teamcherry\hollowknight

#

all I know is that I tried editing the file

#

reediting it back to what it was didnt help though

hushed otter
#

you sure you didnt do anything else? GWllentThinkPika

#

how did you try to edit the savefile?

sour maple
#

I didn't edit the save file itself, I edited the json file that I got from using the qol mod with notepad, specifically edited health and nail damage only

brazen jay
#

the rest of it is p obvious but these are weird

runic oriole
#

Ask in modding

brazen jay
#

k

sour maple
#

so no one can help with my save file? Ahh
well, thanks then, I guess

runic oriole
#

sorry, I was out all day

#

so, you should prolly ask 56 directly, since he made qol

#

but, what seems to be the issue?

#

does the save not load? Or does it load, but crashes the game?

sour maple
#

When I open the game the save file that’s supposed to be the first file just shows up as a new game

runic oriole
#

ok

#

I'm gonna need two things from u

#

first a pic of your saves folder showing the save you edited, both the json and the dat

#

second, the json itself

#

just send it over here

sour maple
#

Okay, I’ll have to send it later though cause currently I’m out of the house, but I’ll get that to you soon

huh

idk

maybe i'm dumb

#

i can't see anything which would do it

#

i do see a way to make it more efficient tho

runic oriole
#

when does the hook run tho

#

before or after the save?

glass meteor
#

OnSaveLoad, OnSaveSave

runic oriole
#

maybe you're preventing the file to be written to dat

#

idk

glass meteor
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

i'm gonna remove load dat

#

it's useless anyways

#

oh

#

maybe

#

LoadDat => OnSaveSave => file still open?

runic oriole
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

glass meteor
#

i'll try using statements

#

i guess

#

and kill off load dat

#

are you on beta or anything

#

cause it does

#

that's not current patch

daring peak
#

that's like the opposite of beta

tiny blade
runic oriole

the opposite of beta

This is gonna be easier if you just use the installer in pins here

fervent swallow
#

I installed the debug mod but everytime i put it inside the MOD folder it dosent show up ingame

versed needle
#

People haven't had to do manual installs for a while

fervent swallow

versed needle
#

You click them and look at the first one

fervent swallow
#

versed needle
#

Wherever your game is

fervent swallow
#
