[real jacinth]

[fervent swallow]

[versed needle]

Delete your settings file

[fervent swallow]

[versed needle]

It's by your saves

[fervent swallow]

where i looked everywhere im dumb af

im in hollowknight data file

[versed needle]

Pins

[fervent swallow]

dude I mean like where is the folder of saves

[versed needle]

dude I mean like check the pins

[fervent swallow]

there is nothing saying: the save files are located under the hollow knight directory

[glass meteor]

have you tried scrolling down

[fervent swallow]

[glass meteor]

[fervent swallow]

[versed needle]

The file is DebugMod.GlobalSettings.json

[fervent swallow]

i delete this?

[versed needle]

Yeah you fucked your settings

Just get rid of it

[fervent swallow]

kk thanks papa

[sinful crow]

is there a way to edit something to make it so grey prince doesn't show up in pantheons

[versed needle]

Just don't fight him

That's part of the base game

[sinful crow]

But I already got 112 percent on a file and don't want to have to do it again

[versed needle]

He's not that bad

Just fight him in pantheon

[meager comet]

hey are there any mods that give the hero a cool skin

[tiny blade]

InvertKnight

and Pure Knight will be coming out soon, hopefully

[meager comet]

I'm downloading InvertKnight now

thanks

I was asking for one with more than one choice

but this is also a cool skin

[weary kindle]

@sinful crow If you really want grey prince gone just use debug mode to give yourself infinite hp during his fight in the pantheon

[runic oriole]

if you really want him gone, just beat him

and you won't have to face him again (until you die)

[glass meteor]

so just don't die

[runic oriole]

oh, so it's 56

[glass meteor]

[runic oriole]

I was wondering who was this strange person dabbing on me

now makes perfect sense

[tiny blade]

mee

[runic oriole]

mee

[glass meteor]

meem

[runic oriole]

me!me!me!

[weary kindle]

zote

[glass meteor]

Meadow!

[frail dock]

Is the latest version of the modding API 1.3.1.5?

[glass meteor]

no

[frail dock]

Dang. Where can I get the latest?

[glass meteor]

the gdrive in pins or you can just use the installer which is way easier and is in the first pin

[frail dock]

Ah, thanks.

Man, that installer is really well designed. Kudos to the guys who worked on it.

[runic oriole]

"Guys"

"Well designed"

[daring peak]

Guysdow!

[tiny blade]

"it"

[runic oriole]

"Worked"

[waxen linden]

Hey

Any idea on how to get 21:9 working on the current build?

[meager comet]

hey uh I think I might be stuck

in the randomizer

I don't know if this seed is possible

I don't have dream nail and I have searched everywhere that I can

[low heart]

do you have mantis claw

[meager comet]

have every power besides descending dark

i'm very late game

like I've been looking

[daring peak]

search better

[low heart]

consider charm locations

[meager comet]

I'm gonna get the nail arts

but how do you activate the grimm event again?

[daring peak]

not randomized

[meager comet]

i know

but is sly's thing?

[daring peak]

who

nglory

[meager comet]

when you get all three nail arts you can get a charm from sly because he's the master

[daring peak]

check it ig

[meager comet]

also what is nglory?

[daring peak]

nailmaster's glory

[meager comet]

is that a technique?

[tiny blade]

[daring peak]

quite possibly the biggest think

[meager comet]

the bonfire won't light

wtf

[runic oriole]

Did you get sly key?

[meager comet]

yes

[daring peak]

my mans needs dreamnail

goes to grimm for dreamnail

[meager comet]

yes i do

[daring peak]

biggest thinker

[runic oriole]

Check shade soul

[meager comet]

i forget these things okay

[runic oriole]

Ddark

Shriek

[meager comet]

checked and checked

[runic oriole]

If you have everything but dnail you should be able to get every item

So just check better

[meager comet]

i don't have descending dark either

[runic oriole]

But you do have dive?

[meager comet]

no

desolate dive

i know names

[runic oriole]

It's still useless if you have everything else

Except for getting to Flukenest

[meager comet]

and quick slash

[versed needle]

And soul eater

[tiny blade]

And heavy blow

[versed needle]

[meager comet]

see i can get everything

[daring peak]

and getting through blockrock

[runic oriole]

So 4 items

Have you checked everything else?

[meager comet]

and i can't get descending dark either

[runic oriole]

Because if you don't have ddive, then 3 of those 4 are ddive, ddark and dnail

[versed needle]

Did you check grub daddy?

[tiny blade]

😩

[runic oriole]

I'm sure you're missing something

[daring peak]

sean are you streaming crosscode

[meager comet]

i got part one of grub daddy

but i didn't get part two

and sly just gave nailmaster's glory

but it also seems like the randomizer doesn't put the stuff in things that take forever

like i got kingsoul from it's location

[versed needle]

Wow kingsoul

Intense completion

[meager comet]

not part 2

only part 1

[versed needle]

You missed something somewhere

[meager comet]

I'm literally staring at the interactive map

or the dnail is in a place that i can't get to

because this seed doesn't work

[versed needle]

I'm willing to bet it works

[daring peak]

send seed i'll beat it in 2 hours

[versed needle]

Stream it

[daring peak]

aren't you in class

[versed needle]

But wait like 30 minutes

Yeah

I'm not home

[daring peak]

my next stream will be splice anyways

can't play this garbage game

hk sux

[meager comet]

i am streaming it

[versed needle]

I thought you uninstalled that

[daring peak]

reinstalled

ez clap

[versed needle]

Pog

Send your save file I'll tell you where dream nail is when I get home

[meager comet]

where can i find that?

like what folder in the hollow knight steam folder

[low heart]

my bet is on Shape of Unn

[daring peak]

Save Files: %APPDATA%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\

[meager comet]

checked there

[low heart]

oof

[daring peak]

it's spore shroom

[meager comet]

checked

[low heart]

grimmchild?

wait no

that would not make sense

[meager comet]

i can't check that

[daring peak]

mysteroyofathens

[runic oriole]

Send save

[low heart]

send modlog

ez

[daring peak]

show code

[runic oriole]

Did you close and open the game after starting this seed?

If not, send modlog

[meager comet]

yes i have been doing this in multiple sessions

playing it casually since it's my first one

save file is userX where x is savefile number?

[daring peak]

[meager comet]

there

[daring peak]

you only needed the first one

[meager comet]

i don't know

there are all of them

[tacit badger]

just in case

[tiny blade]

I bet its deep do cus

[tacit badger]

nvm the seed is fine

[meager comet]

just got desolate dive from weaversong

[versed needle]

Wow you missed a spot

Nobody predicted this

[swift quarry]

I heard that there was a mod that simulates having all bindings on in the Hall of Gods, and that I could find it on the Discord. Is that true?

[tacit badger]

if you download the mod api launcher there's one called hell mode and that's the one you're looking for

[swift quarry]

I read that and it didn't seem like it was, but I believe you. Does it ask you to set what kind of nerfs you have?

[tacit badger]

uh no it just gives you all the nerfs

i don't think you can change it

[swift quarry]

The descriptions don't quite match what the bindings do, but I will give it a shot. Thanks.

[tacit badger]

also on the randomizer dreamshield doesn't work if you don't already have dream nail

idk if that's been reported before or not, nor do i know if that can even be fixed

[versed needle]

Wait dreamshield requires dream nail?

That's such a weird restriction

Fucking tc

You can't even get dreamshield normally without dream nail

Not reported btw since I think you're literally the first person to ever use dream shield by choice

[novel bronze]

....I mean i tried it, but it is pretty trash

if it could reflect projectiles instead of negating them i would use it way more

[meager comet]

yea i got it early game

[versed needle]

It's an ok effect but it makes no sense to be 3 notches

[meager comet]

and it basically stops working once you go one screen over

[versed needle]

For what it does, 1 notch is way more fair

[novel bronze]

its the same with the jin's blessing, in theory its good? but its just....not in practice

ever since the nerf anyways

[meager comet]

it activates and everything when you first equip it

but then it disappears on the next screen

[versed needle]

Weaversong does that too sometimes

I don't think it's a randomizer problem

[meager comet]

maybe

[novel bronze]

Weaversong is the one that summons the spiderlings right?

[tacit badger]

yeah

[novel bronze]

So what does the randomizer actually randomize?

[tame tulip]

item locations

[novel bronze]

Just items?

cause if so thats perfect'

[tame tulip]

items and charms

[novel bronze]

Too many nowadays randomize bosses, currency drops ect, just a pure item changing randomizer sounds perfect

Is it programmed to not trap you out of the endings? say you get the void heart before the KB?

[versed needle]

Void heart isn't random

[novel bronze]

Ok, so plot crucial stuff stays in place?

[versed needle]

No, just stuff that's crap to get

Nobody wants to do white palace for 1 item

[novel bronze]

Wait, so is it just...spawned at the kings corpse to skip it?

or is it still in the palace, and just isnt randomized?

[versed needle]

The latter

[novel bronze]

got it

[runic oriole]

just use the installer in pins

that's all there is to it

[versed needle]

Too many words

You're supposed to just say 📌

Or maybe 📍

[runic oriole]

p

[versed needle]

No I think that's going too far

More words

[runic oriole]

hmmm

pin+1

[novel bronze]

do i grab all three? or do i just need the jar

[runic oriole]

wut

what jar?

[novel bronze]

the .jar file, Sorry, wrong post XD was asking someone something in PMs, ignore me

[versed needle]

They've gotta mean the save editor

Oh or that

[novel bronze]

Yea i was talking about the editor in pms

[runic oriole]

right

[fair pagoda]

@glass meteor sorry to bother but how can i disable the mods, i try to disable it in the mod manager, then reinstall the game but i still have infinite charm and 3 notch hiveblood

[glass meteor]

infinite notches has to be disabled in game first

Because it's meme and was made in like 50 seconds

[light tundra]

should have made it 56 seconds

[glass meteor]

and 3 notch hiveblood you can fix using save editing

it's an Exaltation bug iirc

[light tundra]

so thats one more coincidence with your name that still doesnt explain the origin of your name

[fair pagoda]

yeah

so now i have to install the mod again then disable it ingame

[glass meteor]

yeah

[tiny blade]

56 is this your alt

[glass meteor]

no

[light tundra]

yes

[glass meteor]

@ Xhuis#5831 fix bug thanks

[tiny blade]

@novel bronze

[glass meteor]

[fair pagoda]

well ty

[tiny blade]

wdym yikes

he needs to know about this

[glass meteor]

if you have qol save editing can just be done by editing user(x).json

[light tundra]

if 56 of all people who has tagged wilbo for a meme avoids pinging them then hhhh

[fair pagoda]

um i don't know about qol

[glass meteor]

@ wilbo fsms

[light tundra]

a story told in 4 messages

i'm highly convinced that this shade skip is rng

[light tundra]

very nice compression also yikes

[silver oyster]

how do you change config for mods?

[tiny blade]

the config files are in your saves folder

[silver oyster]

where's the saves folder (im on steam)

[tiny blade]

%APPDATA%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\

[silver oyster]

Thanks

[safe canopy]

why is that preview of my magnum dong so blurry

but the chat moving so fast like clear af

[noble basin]

wow discord image scaling is actually crap

higher res shit looks worse than lower res shit

[low heart]

because compression shit

[noble basin]

because whatever scaling formula they use looks bad

aka whatever scaling formula google chrome uses

[worn solar]

Hey, can I bother someone to help me? I'm trying to install the debug menu mod

[noble basin]

consider downloading and running modinstaller in pins?

[worn solar]

I'm not super mod savvy, do I need modinstaller?

[noble basin]

no, but it makes things easier and there's really no reason not to use it

[worn solar]

I guess I'll try that first, there's also the possibility that I don't have the right file, or I'm not putting them in the proper place... I keep having to uninstall the game to fix it after attempting to put the API thingy in there

[tiny blade]

what version of the game do you have

[worn solar]

Umm, the Steam version

[noble basin]

[tiny blade]

🤔

use the installer then

it does everything for you

[worn solar]

I'll try that

Okay, I think now I have to find the mods themselves

[tiny blade]

wdym

[worn solar]

It says to "import a mod bundle and load it"

Ohh, nevermind. Finally figured out the debug menu API

Thank you anyways!

[runic oriole]

Where did you get that installer

That's old af

[real jacinth]

Da googles

Someone came in here a week ago and had that super old one too

[daring peak]

better remove google just to be safe

[real jacinth]

that's where he said he found it

actually a week ago

[echo hatch]

how does one uninstall the mod manager

[versed needle]

You delete it

[echo hatch]

can't figure out how

[versed needle]

Click it

Press delete

Press yes on the prompt

[echo hatch]

@versed needle deleted it but this is still showing up

[silk field]

verify game files

[real jacinth]

that's not the mod manager

those are mods

[echo hatch]

but i dont have any installed

[real jacinth]

top left of that menu says you do

[silk field]

to remove the stuff just verify game files

[sharp hinge]

^

[real jacinth]

or use the mod manager exe to uninstall the mods

[echo hatch]

?

hm, game seems to be working fine.

[silk field]

yeah, that happened because you installed mods

it's fixing the game

[echo hatch]

ok

[silk field]

well 'fixing'

[real jacinth]

replacing the C# assembly with vanilla one

b/c again... you had mods installed

[echo hatch]

yeah i got it to work

[snow quest]

Hiya, ive never modded on hollow knight before so could someone give me a few pointers of where to look for good mods?

[ivory light]

hi. ran into this bug where the "wall" to glowing womb charm is blocking the path and i have no way to open it since i've already cleared the room. was thinking of changing the save file, so i used this https://bloodorca.github.io/hollow/ but i don't know which line it is

[real jacinth]

so you went in, got glowing womb, and now you're trapped in?

why not just save/quit

[versed needle]

No they cleared the arena and it didn't open up the charm

[real jacinth]

ah. that wall

[versed needle]

Should be gotCharm_22

@ivory light

[ivory light]

thanks. btw, i know i can just watch youtube for what happens inside, but do you happen to know the line for the wall too?

[versed needle]

The wall is gonna be a persistent bool item somewhere in scene data

Dunno

Nothing interesting in there, you just pick up the charm

From a big aspid corpse

[untold elm]

just use debug mod and noclip lol

easier than doing save edit stuff

[ivory light]

ok, thanks!

[rare rivet]

Its always happened to me; but ive never gotten it fixed. Whenever I leave a save file and enter again (either a different save or the same), the debug mod breaks. The menu is up only partially but permanently, and I have to restart the game.
I always figured i'm using an old version? Ill probably just try redownloading the 1221 debug, might work after that.

[rare rivet]

Fixed it. I just redownloaded and reinstalled it

This'll make practice much easier now

Turning it off and on worked, who would've guessed

[trail flint]

GJ Kuro you helped mr admin man, adman

[tiny blade]

hey no problem man

btw simo when is your all skills run

[rare rivet]

https://horaro.org/asmpax2018/schedule

[tiny blade]

dope

thanks

[rare rivet]

No worries, about two weeks ish

[trail flint]

hey simo dont forget to give a shout out to every single user in this server during that run

[rare rivet]

Of course, easy

In order of join date?

[trail flint]

yes

[tiny blade]

start from like 6418

[noble basin]

start from... whatever my number is

[untold elm]

I'm 7824

so I'm good

[rare rivet]

For Debug, after setting a hotkey to a command, how do you default it back to UNBOUND ?

[glass meteor]

edit the settings file in the saves folder

[rare rivet]

Which one is the settings file?

[glass meteor]

DebugMod.GlobalSettings.json

[rare rivet]

And how would one edit json file type?
You knew this question was coming right after haha

[glass meteor]

e.g if i want to remove toggle console i'd remove 285 and "Toggle Console"

just notepad or notepad++

[rare rivet]

So would this be correct?

Infinite Soul is the last one
So I assume the last variable?

[glass meteor]

yeah

remove the trailing comma too iirc

so like it'd be 103, 112]

instead of 103, 112,]

[rare rivet]

Beauty, it worked

Appreciate it heaps

[glass meteor]

[smoky fulcrum]

So I'm trying to load Randomizer on 1.4.3.2 but there's nothing on the main menu besides "Hollow Knight" which is lower than it usually is

Randomizer is 1.4.2.4 but I read that is should still work anyway

[glass meteor]

do you have modcommon

[smoky fulcrum]

ah that's it

I think the last time I did randomizer was grimm troupe and that wasn't a thing then

[warm comet]

Hey guys, if I uninstall the More saves mod, do the saves in other pages get lost?

[tame tulip]

back them up

[glass meteor]

no

[warm comet]

Okay I backed them up just in case and removed the mod. I just renamed some of the files so hopefully nothing breaks. Whenever I got into the game I realized there were more and more save files in other pages so it basically never saved in the same slot and always in the first slot of the next page.

Thank you

[cosmic flame]

is it ok if i ask a kinda dumb question cus i was wondering if you guys could help me figure out how to MAKE a mod, like what tools do i use for that

[glass meteor]

Visual Studio
dnSpy
Fsm viewer maybe

there are some example mods here

https://github.com/seanpr96/HollowKnight.Modding/tree/master/ExampleMods

you can open them in vs

dnSpy lets you view Assembly-CSharp decompiled

[cosmic flame]

cool thanks

[real jacinth]

I think that's a convo to have with your parents

the mods here can tell you after the first part, how they shaped their lives to lead to this penultimate moment in time

[noble basin]

modding has ruined my life

[cosmic flame]

well i can't go down any further

[noble basin]

not with a username like that

[cosmic flame]

y'know what i should probably get around to changing that

[light tundra]

leaked footage of spite

[past crystal]

I've got some feedback for the mod installer
Something I noticed is that if installing another mod through the recommendation system, it doesn't give any indication that it's actually been installed and the button for that mod still says "Install"
Not sure if it actually causes any issues

Also, every time I open it it gives me a prompt telling me that Infinite Grimm is outdated and asking if I want to update it

[glass meteor]

@noble basin

[light tundra]

if its outdated update it

[past crystal]

for V8.4.0

No, I mean every time I open, even if I say yes to update it

[light tundra]

e

[glass meteor]

e

[light tundra]

nice rain world pfp

[past crystal]

thanks

Also, question about it. How will I be able to tell if the installer itself is outdated?

[glass meteor]

it auto-updates

[past crystal]

good to know

[noble basin]

fuckkkkkkk

forgot to update the IG sha1sum

oh I think I updated it but you overwrote my modlinks.xml 56

I think we updated it at around the same time

[glass meteor]

wow nice

[runic oriole]

I should be able to fix the recommendations thingy tomorrow

[glass meteor]

[sleek tiger]

@acoustic glen

please ask your questions here unless they are directly related to making a mod

I noticed earlier you asked about the API

[acoustic glen]

@sleek tiger well, actually, all my questions about API has been answered, and now im asking more generally about game

[sleek tiger]

mhm

[acoustic glen]

is mod api capable of changing save file directory?

[weary kindle]

So how dumb is it for me to do every mod at once

Since I am just about to try it

[daring peak]

you only need lightbringer

[weary kindle]

Nah I only need Exalation

[tiny blade]

Exalation

[light tundra]

every mod at once

more like

crash

[weary kindle]

[light tundra]

be sure to send the exception log

[weary kindle]

Sounds fun

[light tundra]

if you make it work i will kiss you

[weary kindle]

Now I have a goal

Welp going to start the game now

[tiny blade]

[light tundra]

tell me if it bricks your pc

[weary kindle]

Wait what

[light tundra]

dont tell me it worked

[weary kindle]

What is this strange language

[trail flint]

lemme guess the text are all pink squares

[weary kindle]

What is this language

Time to oot up a save I guess

[trail flint]

oh wait thats from one of angle's mods

[light tundra]

Oscan

start the game

[weary kindle]

How do I get rid of it. I need to to know what settings I'm even enabling

Or if I'm enabling them

[light tundra]

just go into menus until you find the save files

[weary kindle]

But then I am sent to this

[trail flint]

randomizer

[tiny blade]

🤔

[weary kindle]

It works in a way

[trail flint]

nice

[light tundra]

wow

[weary kindle]

@light tundra Hehe

[light tundra]

pucker up

its time for your kiss

[weary kindle]

Now time to play threw whole game like this

Welp this is easy. Walking into enemies kills them

Also debug mode

Question: what mod makes me move forward against my will

[trail flint]

2 dollar hotdogs from 7/11

but for real i think its either chaos mod or shitmothst

[light tundra]

chaos mod 😩

[weary kindle]

Welp this is going to be fun then

So which mod changed the text language

[trail flint]

ill honestly be surprised if you even get past greenpath without crashing

[weary kindle]

Challenge accepted

[tiny blade]

i'd be surprised if you can make it to greenpath in the first place

[weary kindle]

Challenge accepted

[light tundra]

if you defeat hornet 1 i will give you a second kiss

[weary kindle]

I'll make it to the white palace

[light tundra]

no debug mod allowed

[weary kindle]

ok

I'll go uninstall it now then

[daring peak]

well then you lost the challenge

[tiny blade]

gg

[weary kindle]

I'll get 112%

[tiny blade]

nah u wont lol

gl beating mantis gods with darkmod

[trail flint]

invuln debug mod

[weary kindle]

No debug mode

[trail flint]

but that removes the "i use every mod" part 🤔

[weary kindle]

Your right

[tiny blade]

My right?

[trail flint]

in his perspective its on his left

[tiny blade]

Ah

[weary kindle]

I turned off darkness mod to see how the game looks

Hell accured

I took a video but file is too big'

[tiny blade]

[glass meteor]

why does everyone thing it'll crash wtf

it'll be fine

[tiny blade]

thing

[weary kindle]

🤷

[trail flint]

exceptions thrown from conflicts?

[weary kindle]

It runs perfectly

[trail flint]

well i dont those are enough to crash the game but then again it also causes shit like your hits not doing damage by theyre being registered

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[weary kindle]

And nocliip solves all problems

And not from debug mod

Noclip is in enemy randomizer as well

[glass meteor]

but what would conflict that stupidly

the worst conflict I've seen is rando 2 and infinite Grimm

which just makes infinite Grimm not infinite

no crash or anything

[tiny blade]

lmao shut uop dood

wrong chat

[glass meteor]

[trail flint]

look 56 we didnt say we KNOW it would crash we just said it MIGHT crash which basically means ur mum big xd xD Dx

[light tundra]

Dx

a sad laugh

[trail flint]

same

[glass meteor]

no he's just dead

[light tundra]

same

[glass meteor]

same

[trail flint]

[waxen valley]

hey guys, new here

I'm having some trouble installing the debug mod

is it up to date?

[tiny blade]

yea

[waxen valley]

ok nice

[tiny blade]

use the installer pinned here

[waxen valley]

I installed the API using the instructions from the github page

should I get rid of that

[glass meteor]

did u tho

did you build it

[waxen valley]

I think so

[glass meteor]

i guess that works

but like why

[runic oriole]

shouldn't need to

but sure

[mystic belfry]

i just killed the chat just by saying hello

[tiny blade]

no the convo just ended

[mystic belfry]

hm

wait a sec

3 "justs"

[noble basin]

I unjustly killed the chat

this chat always be ded

[tiny blade]

Hoje às

[mystic belfry]

OH AN BR HAS BEEN NOTICED

sorry

i am one too

[daring peak]

oi amigo

[mystic belfry]

Olá meu caro

ha

[tiny blade]

🤔

[mystic belfry]

oh wait

i see what you are talking about DLK

as i said,i am an BR

[runic oriole]

oh no

stop it ptkyr

[mystic belfry]

Im sorry,but i dont know what PTKYR means

[runic oriole]

that's it

you should keep it like that

good

[mystic belfry]

okay

[tiny blade]

what's a ptkyr

[noble basin]

alright should I ask a ballsy question?

[mystic belfry]

hm?

[runic oriole]

is that the ballsy question?

[noble basin]

hey y'all, what's ur thoughts on the brazilian election?

[waxen valley]

alright yeah this worked

[runic oriole]

oh no

[waxen valley]

thanks guys

[runic oriole]

don't AA

don't

please

[tiny blade]

im not up to date on that

fill me in

[runic oriole]

it's a shitfest basically, dlk

[noble basin]

tfw you have someone who wants to be associated with a criminal who served jailtime for corruption and they don't even look like the worst candidate...

[runic oriole]

yup

[tiny blade]

[noble basin]

yeah it's super fucked

[runic oriole]

and the people, as a whole, still defends said criminal claiming he wasn't a criminal at all

[tiny blade]

is gradow one of these criminals

[runic oriole]

claiming that the evidence against him are all forged

and there's not "factual evidence"

only "circumstancial evidence"

[noble basin]

I'm an outsider, so I cannot speak for who would be best to lead. But I'm p sure either choice would lead to a very shitty future for your country, so have fun with that.

[runic oriole]

yeah

there's no good solution

we basically picked the worst of all possible candidates

the mentallity is basically

the party of that one convicted criminal has been in power for 16 years

and many many scandals of corruption and etc. have surfaced in that time

add to that the current shitty state of Brazil's economy

and people are generally unsatisfied with that said political party

so it's created this fallacy that "we have to take the power away from them, no matter the cost"

but you'd think there'd be many other parties and candidates in the opposing political spectrum

and you'd be right

but

social media has been spreading a lot of fake news over the last year or so, favoring one certain candidate

not only that, but

[noble basin]

yeah like as an outsider I think you definitely don't want to keep that party in power, but I mean couldn't you have picked anyone a little bit, just slightly, less facist, for lack of a better term.

[runic oriole]

that's where it gets ugly, AA

[noble basin]

not that I'm blaming you, because politics are always ugly

[runic oriole]

you see, we have periodic public polls

about the people's intention - who they wanna vote for

and said racist candidate was the opposing candidate with more votes in the polls

this led to a self feeding system

where people started supporting him not because they like what he preaches/promises to do

but

[noble basin]

because he seemed like the best shot for removing the current ruling party

yeah

ech

[runic oriole]

yup

[noble basin]

just out of curiosity and completely random question but are any of your polls using electronic voting?

[runic oriole]

nope

only the actual elections use eletronic voting systems

[noble basin]

the actual elections use electronic voting machines?

[runic oriole]

the polls are actually by sampling random people on the streets

yupyup

so, that's the state we currently stand at

[versed dawn]

dont you think youre using the wrong channel for that

[runic oriole]

we have the two worst parties running

[noble basin]

all I can say is uh... good luck.

idk

what to suggest

[runic oriole]

nah, it's fine

[tiny blade]

gradow move to spain

i have an empty room in my house

[runic oriole]

there's also a lot of conspiracy theory going around, on both sides

it's amazing

my plan is to move to Chile in the near future, dlk

and live in the mountains

with the penguins

[noble basin]

I'd invite you to my place but I'm packed into a dorm room with 2 other people in the same room.

[tiny blade]

[daring peak]

come to canada

[runic oriole]

I've actually considered canada, ptk

but

you're there

[tiny blade]

yeah and thats a no no

[runic oriole]

yup

[daring peak]

wow

[runic oriole]

but, yeah, that's the gist of brazil rn

and now, back to helping people copy paste

[weary kindle]

what happens when Exalation and Lightbringer are mixed?

[runic oriole]

boooooom

[steady patrol]

hi im new to the server and just tried downloading bonfire mod but when i launched hollow knight all that showed up was a black screen

any ideas on a fix?

[glass meteor]

did you buy the game

[steady patrol]

yes

on steam

[glass meteor]

1.4.3.2?

[steady patrol]

what do you mean by that

the game or the mod

[glass meteor]

bottom left of the title screen

are you on beta or anything

did you use the installer

[steady patrol]

i manually downloaded from the drive

[glass meteor]

use the installer

it's the first pin

[steady patrol]

ok

thank you

[glass meteor]

yw

[neat thicket]

want to start modding hk can someone tell me where to find the mods

[light tundra]

📌

[neat thicket]

?

[light tundra]

check the pins

here

[crimson galleon]

is there a mod that fixes the lifeblood hearts?

[glass meteor]

unofficial hk patch

[crimson galleon]

the beta? or is that a mod

[glass meteor]

🅱od

[crimson galleon]

any idea when it will be in the main game?

[glass meteor]

no

[crimson galleon]

or even if it will be

thanks for the help

[acoustic glen]

is it possible to change save file location to be relative, allowing potability?

portability?

[real jacinth]

you cannot drink saves, no

[acoustic glen]

drink?

[real jacinth]

potable

[acoustic glen]

my bad

but you get the point

[acoustic glen]

yeah, sorry, I corrected myself

[real jacinth]

just copy your saves

bring em with, then put them where they go

[acoustic glen]

yeah, but I dont want to

[real jacinth]

or use steam cloud

[acoustic glen]

not possible in my use case due to blocked ports

Has anybody any idea which .dll takes care of saving?

[versed needle]

Why do you have the world's strictest firewall?

[lime lodge]

big brains pulling up google definitions be epic

yee hah!

[tiny blade]

[silk field]

wtf

that doesnt even make sense

oh wait

nevermind

[lime lodge]

[real jacinth]

Nah, remember Sean, this dude was trying to play on steam at school

[lime lodge]

pinkie and the brain

[versed needle]

Oh ok

[weary kindle]

I have an idea. Do work at school and play games at home

[low heart]

play games at school and play games at home

[silk field]

sad

[weary kindle]

If you play at school start a new game don't try to ask on discord for help getting save files on it

[warm helm]

Whenever I try to play my downgraded version of Hollow Knight, instead of running the older version with its separate data, it just runs Hollow Knight normally and runs the new version with my normal saves

[novel bronze]

Can someone help me find the current version of the hollow knight Bonfire mod?

[real jacinth]

Use installer

In pins

[weary kindle]

Exalation just updated, what does the new update change?

[glass meteor]

Fixed the hiveblood bug and added a dream wielder glorification

[weary kindle]

Hmmm kindof was expecting a fix for the Fury of the Fallen look glitch

[glass meteor]

@novel bronze e

[novel bronze]

that's fixed too

probably

[glass meteor]

@weary kindle e

[weary kindle]

hmm anything we need to do for the fix to occur here since still looks the same

Also how many notches are in the game since I some how have 12

Welp apparentley I can have infinte charms without the mod

[glass meteor]

Did you install infinite notches

[weary kindle]

Yes but it is not installed at the moment

[glass meteor]

It doesn't revert itself when you uninstall it

[weary kindle]

Strange

Guess I'll mess around with it

Is it on every save?

[noble basin]

only the ones you opened

[weary kindle]

👀 Better go check that

[noble basin]

gotta install it, disable it in the modding api menu on the main menu, launch your save, save and quit to menu. uninstall it

to reset the notches

[weary kindle]

ok

[glass meteor]

add one-two hooks to infinite notches thanks

[noble basin]

no

then it wouldn't be both a meme mod I made in 3 minutes and my most popular mod

[glass meteor]

.

it can be a meme mod you made in 4 minutes

and your most popular mod

and not cause agony

[noble basin]

send a pr

[glass meteor]

ok

[weary kindle]

3 minutes and 30 seconds

[noble basin]

wait did I even put the code online

[weary kindle]

👀

[glass meteor]

wheremst repo

[weary kindle]

Shouldn't this discussion move to #archived-modding-development at this point

[glass meteor]

u

[noble basin]

hold on lemme make a repo

[weary kindle]

WAIT A SECOND

WHAT IS THIS NEW MODE I SEE IN INSTALLEr

[noble basin]

mode

[glass meteor]

e

[weary kindle]

ULTIMATE RADIANCE????!!!!

[untold elm]

absrad+

[weary kindle]

Wooh

[noble basin]

https://gitlab.com/natis1/infinitenotches

[weary kindle]

Pain of Path seems fun

[untold elm]

it is

[weary kindle]

👀

[noble basin]

also please compile me a fixed binary for it too 56

[glass meteor]

hhhhhhhhhhh

[pseudo cape]

56 gets all the work

[noble basin]

this is how little shits I give about infinite notches

I didn't even put the src online

[pseudo cape]

Why not give it to seanpr or 753 ;)

[noble basin]

also the namespace and class name

[glass meteor]

Class1.cs

[weary kindle]

I disabled the mod

Still infinte charms

[noble basin]

u sure, try putting on and off charms

[glass meteor]

adding hooks in Unload

ascended

[weary kindle]

Yeah I did

And checked no infinite charms in Godmaster

Also @novel bronze I had to disable and reanable the mod for it to become shade fury

[novel bronze]

as long as it works I'm fine with it

[weary kindle]

Also now it permanently says I didn't beat Nailsage on attuned

[glass meteor]

🅱eat it again

[weary kindle]

I did

[warm helm]

Whenever I try to play my downgraded version of Hollow Knight, instead of running the older version with its separate data, it just runs Hollow Knight normally and runs the new version with my normal saves

[glass meteor]

put this in the folder next to the exe

and then run the exe

[warm helm]

I did, thats the one with the 6 numbers right?

Because if it is, I tried it and it doesnt work

Yep, tried it earlier and it was still the same result

[glass meteor]

you could rename "Hollow Kniight" to hollow knight backup or something and then have the downpatch be the main "Hollow Knight" folder

[runic oriole]

that's what I do

[real jacinth]

Did you go all the way into the game?

What patch did the title screen say

The regular hollow Knight game in the library will say its running, but the downgraded patch will be what's running

[warm helm]

I was trying to run 1.2.2.1 but the patch number on the title screen was the latest

[real jacinth]

Can you show some screenshots?

Of like file paths and stuff

Easier to help troubleshoot that way

[novel bronze]

How does the bonfire mod treat the blacksmith?

does it just give a damage upgrade relative to what you have already?

[untold elm]

bonfire mod is just broken

that's all I have to say

if you want to know why

go all out dex build

[glass meteor]

public int NailDamage(int totalStr) => (int)Math.Round((double)(5 + 2 * PlayerData.instance.nailSmithUpgrades) * Math.Pow(1.25, Math.Log((double)totalStr, 2.0)));

[untold elm]

with a dex build you can get quickslashx3 with about 100k geo

[novel bronze]

well yea, thats why i'm not

I am going with a spread build, mostly strength and health

with a later bit of dex as needed

[vague badge]

Is there a way for me to get the extracted art assets of the game for thumbnail or even fan art purposes?

[trail flint]

theres a sprite sheet in the pins in #art-discussion if thats what you mean

[vague badge]

Thanks a lot.

[merry nacelle]

question - will NoHardSaves in QoL fuck with rando?

or should I leave it on

I want to do some randos today

[real jacinth]

I'd just turn it off. rando has no hard saves anyways

[daring peak]

don't kill monomon and you're fine lul

[merry nacelle]

Yeah, that's why I was wondering about it

[real jacinth]

new QoL should have fixed monomon

so just get the new version

[merry nacelle]

yeah, i'm up to date

[real jacinth]

and double check it

neato

[novel bronze]

Anyone know why my damage has gotten worse in the bonfire mod?

It was at 8 and i was twoshotting stuff

but then i got it upgraded to 9

and now it takes four hits to killstuff that i was twoshotting

[real jacinth]

enemies scale

[daring peak]

hp scales

[novel bronze]

.......for JUST normal enemies right?

[real jacinth]

they scale way more when you beat certain progression points

pretty sure bosses too

[novel bronze]

....ah i'm right fucked arent i.

[real jacinth]

means you didn't build your character "right"

[novel bronze]

I didnt expect to have to do that

Ah well i can adapt

[daring peak]

optimal strategy is spec completely into knockback

[novel bronze]

i assume the nail upgrades are based on your current damage numbers at the time?

[real jacinth]

it's built like an RPG, if you don't put thought into how your spec your player, the game punishes you for it

[novel bronze]

I have been spreading my stats fairly evenly, some into geo, some into strength, some into health ect

[real jacinth]

jack of all trades, master of none

[novel bronze]

is altogether better, than a master of one.

[runic oriole]

nope

because in HK, master of one = everything is ded

level up DEX+LCK and crit all the time

[novel bronze]

Please tell me the enemies wont do more damage than two masks max?

i dont want this to be a "Every enemy is grey prince zote" situation

[runic oriole]

nope, enemies' damage doesn't increase

but their HP does

[real jacinth]

really, it's just like dark souls. if you level up everything evenly, your character is going to be super weak

[novel bronze]

Seems kind of fucked for an rpg mod, i mean, Sure its how the soulsborne games work, But they're kind of an outlier, But then, it is named bonfire, so i shouldnt be surprised

[real jacinth]

that's most RPGs though.

if you don't buff your character in one area, you get out leveled by enemies by end-game

[novel bronze]

Not really, nearly every rpg you level evenly, its just you start OUT specialized, and level accordingly

But enemies dont normally end up adapting to you, you adapt to them

[real jacinth]

even in witcher, if you level all things evenly, you can't do any high level things in any area, alchemy, sword play, or signs

so you just tickle enemies with your abilities

but if you specialize in one of them and essentially ignore the others, you can be super OP

[novel bronze]

eh, i was referring more to things such as , final fantasy, tales of, ect. Though you are right, witcher and a few others are like that'

Will likely disable the mod for now, and go for it after i have had my fun with the base game, and my other modded file

[runic oriole]

eh, wdym level up specific stats in FF series? I always specialize in those games

[real jacinth]

I've never played FF games, so I dunno how they're built

[novel bronze]

When you level up in them you normally end up with a "Base" Stat spread, and your stats increase across ALL stats but with a focus on that characters specialization, is what i mean

so you are never "lacking" in stats, but are still specialized

[runic oriole]

same thing with HK, tho

even if you don't level up at all, you'll still be fine

[vestal island]

hi. first time trying this mod api thingy. i'm wanting to use it to try an item randomizer. is there a seed associated with each playthrough?

[real jacinth]

yes

[vestal island]

okay, thanks

i installed "randomizer 2", but it isn't showing up in the list of mods in the options in-game

is it not supposed to show? i'm really iffy on all of this

[real jacinth]

are you using the installer?

does all the work for you

[vestal island]

yeah

okay, so i don't have to worry about in-game stuff. thanks

[real jacinth]

and it doesn't show on that menu

it shows top left

[vestal island]

ah, i see

[real jacinth]

that mods menu is basically not used except for QoL mod

[vestal island]

good to know

[real jacinth]

yeah. just try to start a new file

it'll go to the randomizer options menu

[vestal island]

works great! thanks!

[novel bronze]

How do i beat the mantis lord?

lords*

[real jacinth]

this isn't #hk-help

[tiny blade]

[novel bronze]

oh sorry

[brazen jay]

hornet is impossible

[weary kindle]

Which one?

[karmic charm]

All of them

[warm helm]

So continuing from yesterday, whenever I try to run my downpatch of Hollow Knight is runs my normal version instead of the downpatch

I have file paths I can show as well now

this is the entire filepath

the folder is on my desktop

[real jacinth]

the problem might be your folder naming

I tried to name mine with the dots too, but steam didn't like that

and you added it to your steam library as a non-steam game?

[warm helm]

yep

[real jacinth]

yeah. try naming the folder 1221

instead of 1.2.2.1

you'll have to re-add the game probably

to steam

the file path will be broken

[warm helm]

Ok, i'll try that

nope, same result

[real jacinth]

what's in the txt file?

[warm helm]

367520

[real jacinth]

and you're launching the game from steam and not by double clicking the exe right?

[warm helm]

I've tried both

[real jacinth]

hmm

and you're positive you grabbed the correct downloaded files?

[warm helm]

I followed the tutorial from speedrun.com and I am 100% sure that I downloaded that correct file

Am I supposed to delete the files in the depot folder once I copy it over to the other folder?

[real jacinth]

shouldn't matter, but might be worth a shot

I can't think of anything else

[warm helm]

the depot file says 367521 on it and my txt file says 367520

but the file the depot file is in says 367520

[real jacinth]

367521 and 367520 mean different things

one is the game, one is the platform

like windows, mac, etc

[warm helm]

oh ok

[old estuary]

I was redirectioned here uh

I beat nkg recently

[real jacinth]

367520 is just the game code

[old estuary]

And then my game crashed
