old estuary
#

And i got "save corrupted"

#

Is there a way to fix that?

real jacinth
#

a corrupted file, no

old estuary
#

...

real jacinth
#

try loading up a backup file

old estuary
#

There are those?

real jacinth
#

if you go to the saves location, they'll be named "user1.bak.dat" or similar

old estuary
#

Where do i find them?

#

Oh

#

Ok thank you

#

Ill have to refight nkg tho

#

How often does it backup..?

real jacinth
#

just rename the most recent one to whatever user slot you want

#

and delete the .bak

old estuary
#

And where is the saves location?

warm helm
#

After deleting the depot files I launched it and its still not working

real jacinth
#

i think it's user1.dat.bak32 where 32 is whatever number backup it is

old estuary
#

Im an idiot

real jacinth
#

Windows File Paths: (Assumes Default Steam Install Path, Adjust accordingly for DRM Free or Non-Standard Steam Path)
Save Files: %APPDATA%..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight
Game Files: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\

old estuary
#

So i just make it user1.dat?

real jacinth
#

@warm helm the only thing I could think of doing is re-downloading the patch from the depot and trying again.

old estuary
#

So id elete the og user1.dat

#

Then i rename the most recent one

#

(606)

real jacinth
#

or moving that whole thing to the actual steam game location and renaming the folder

old estuary
#

To user1.dat?

real jacinth
#

yup

#

or user3 or user4

#

whatever slot you want it in

old estuary
#

Was slot 1

real jacinth
#

yeah, but you can put it wherever

warm helm
#

I have another idea

#

Just replace the folders of my new and old ones when I need to play a different one

#

so it forces it to launch the correct one

real jacinth
#

yeah, that's what renaming the folders does

#

if you put all of them in the actual game file spot

#

and just change the folder names whenever you want to swap patches

#

you're the only one I've heard who's had issues with this patch method. So I'm curious what's happening

warm helm
#

I found someone on the speedrun.com forums with the same exact issue

glass meteor
#

It wasn't working for pest iirc

real jacinth
#

is it the txt file maybe?

warm helm
#

Well now I have to re-download the depot file because I forgot to turn off auto update

#

But it does work when I rename the files

real jacinth
#

hmm

#

try this one

#

dunno why it'd matter

#

but that's all I can think of

old estuary
#

@real jacinththank you you're a liife saver

pseudo cape
#

i mean he's mickely so zote

runic oriole
#

mick has saved my liife too

silk field
#

mick ended my life

pseudo cape
#

what life? zote

warm helm
#

I think I figured it out

#

1.2.2.1 is before Lifeblood so I would need to delete my registry folder

silk field
warm helm
#

not directly on the page I was looking at though

daring peak
#

you should only need to if you can't get off a bench

#

i didn't have to

#

you should at the very least be able to launch the game

vestal island
#

is there a way to randomize the journals/seals/etc.?

daring peak
#

rando1

vestal island
#

is rando1 accessible from the mod manager API thingy?

old estuary
#

Got to 50% again

untold elm
#

forgot to change chats @old estuary

old estuary
#

!!!

#

Sorry

warm helm
#

I finally got it to run on 1.2.2.1 but instead of it having seperate game data it still shows my other save

#

is this supposed to happen?

tiny blade
#

yea

#

savefiles are shared

daring peak
#

rename your saves to user182938120

#

so they exist but aren't ingame

warm helm
#

where are my saves?

daring peak
#

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

untold elm
#

I wonder

#

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

#

nope

#

eats it up with line through it too

warm helm
#

which one of these files in there is my save though

tiny blade
#

user1 is the first slot

#

user2 is the second slot

daring peak
#

userx

tiny blade
#

and so on

daring peak
#

the .dat and .baks are just memes

warm helm
#

do I rename the backups as well

daring peak
#

no need

tiny blade
#

no

warm helm
#

ok

#

so I could just rename it user5

#

ok

#

and the one called user1_1.4.3.2.dat?

daring peak
#

only the userx matters

warm helm
#

ok

#

thanks

#

just gotta remember to change things back around when I want to play normally lol

glass meteor

🅱oreSaves

vestal island
#

just asking again: what is "rando1"?

glass meteor
#

randomizer for 1.2.2.1

vestal island
#

Got it. Thanks

past crystal
#

so it looks like the installer asks me to update outdated mods that i haven't even installed

#

not really a bug so much as, i don't think it's a good system

glass meteor
#

whatmst

#

what mods

past crystal
#

i mean when i open the mod manager and it does the automatic "x mod is outdated", but it does it for all mods rather than just the mods i have installed

glass meteor
#

what mod does it do it for that you don't have installed

#

and are you sure you don't just have that mod disabled

past crystal
#

like infinite notches, moresaves, and stuff that i decided not to install
not any in particular, i think it's just all the mods that got updated

glass meteor
#

uhhh

#

that's a bug

#

for sure

past crystal
#

oh

glass meteor
#

show mods folder

#

and disabled folder

#

to be tbh

past crystal
#

maybe my installer is outdated?

lime fog
#

56 fix utube kthnx

glass meteor
#

idk show the installer

past crystal
glass meteor
#

🤔

#

like infinite notches, moresaves, and stuff that i decided not to install

past crystal
#

i guess i'll try uninstalling everything and then open it later after some updates, as a test

glass meteor
#

you have more saves installed

past crystal
#

that's because i just clicked yes on all the updates that popped up

#

decided to uninstall infinite notches

#

i'll try redownloading the mod manager

glass meteor
#

ok

past crystal
#

where are the folders, by the way?

gloomy crater
#

i think officemax sells some

glass meteor
#

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\Managed\Mods
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\Managed\Mods\Disabled

past crystal
#

great

#

brb gonna go buy some folders

glass meteor
past crystal
#

Managed

glass meteor
#

e

#

hollow_knight_Data\Managed

past crystal
#

ah

#

what the fuck is this webm

glass meteor
#

probably redwing

past crystal
#

probably

#

THESE FUCKING WEBMS

glass meteor
#

are

#

?

past crystal
#

they're just so weird

glass meteor
#

ok then maybe it's the nuke meme merged mod thing

past crystal
#

well there was nuke.webm

#

halfmod.webm

#

and the fucking redwing endings

#

uninstall mods
they're still there
zote

weary kindle
#

Wait what is the redwing endings?!

past crystal
#

interesting

#

@glass meteor
so
know why the mods won't uninstall?

silk field
#

verify game files

#

i think

glass meteor
#

just delete them

#

??

past crystal
#

just wondering why there's an uninstall button for mods if it doesn't work

glass meteor
#

but it does

past crystal
#

i just tried uninstalling the mods with it, but when i check the files they're still there and when i close and reopen the manager it says they're still installed

glass meteor
#

Do you have multiple copies of HK?

#

or anything

past crystal
#

?

#

i don't think so

#

i used to play from someone's library but got the game myself, but i don't think that would affect it considering it's still the same local files

#

@glass meteor ?

glass meteor
#

dunno

past crystal
#

is this really just me?

glass meteor
#

Yeah

past crystal
#

oh wow

#

so how do i clean out all the files?

#

verify?

glass meteor
#

delete them

noble basin
#

mod installer doesn't uninstall redwing assets is a bug in the installer but also it doesn't matter that much cuz they don't take up that much space and they're safe to delete

past crystal
#

not specifically redwing assets

#

but it won't uninstall anything

#

well, it looks like the problem is that the manager can't delete disabled mods lmao

#

@glass meteor

#

still not entirely sure what was going on with the mod update prompts, i'll be testing that out whenever more updates come

weary kindle
#

Mod installer won't open

#

Worked yesterday

#

Not today

vestal island
#

I’m enjoying the rando2 experience so far. I guess if I want it more randomized, I need to get an older version and play rando1, correct?

runic oriole
#

"more"? In which sense?

real jacinth
#

as in adding grimmchild and the other 2 dream items i guess

glass meteor
#

🅱elics

karmic charm
#

Question, would it be possible to add things to hud?

runic oriole
#

🅱nswer, it would

karmic charm
#

🅱hanks

tiny blade
#

n🅱

vestal island
#

oh. i thought the items were mixed with the journals/seals and maps in rando1

#

am i wrong?

real jacinth
#

yes

glass meteor
#

yes

real jacinth
#

that would be way too many items

glass meteor
#

Relics go with other relics

vestal island
#

okay, good to know

#

i misunderstood then. thanks

real jacinth
#

how many relics are in game?

tiny blade
#

not 200 ill tell you that much

real jacinth
#

42

#

dunno where i heard that number

#

so an additional 42 checks

#

to find..... 3 items

gloomy crater
#

more like 46

#

more like 56

#

more like 66

grave dagger
#

hi I'm looking to get a healthbar mod but I've never really experimented with modddint too much, any recommandations?

tiny blade
#

i'd recommend the EnemyHPBar mod

grave dagger
#

Is there anything besides the mod I should download?

glass meteor
#

ModCommon, API

#

I'd use the installer

#

auto-installs dependencies

grave dagger
#

So being a total dumbass here, I found a github page for ModCommon, what part of it all do I download?

glass meteor
#

no

#

#

none of it

tiny blade
glass meteor
#

just like

#

download this

#

and check the enemy hp bars box

grave dagger
#

Thank you ^^

tiny blade
#

ill do it for you

#

Thanks! ❤

gloomy crater
#

u know he had to do it for em

vestal island
#

is it intentional for the randomizer to give you charm notches as you collect charms?

daring peak
#

yes

glass meteor
#

yes

tiny blade
#

yes

vestal island
#

interesting. why is that?

tiny blade
#

to reduce tedium

#

and avoid unnecessary backtracking

real jacinth
#

And allow for interesting, unconventional builds

#

Or to allow for builds at all

noble basin
#

and to save you like, what? 3000 geo?

real jacinth
#

And time

#

Nobody is going to run all the way back to salubra during a run to just buy 3 notches

#

Adding the notches for getting deeper into the run makes it more fun to run

safe canopy
#

it was just dumb before

#

you'd have 30 charms

#

and just have shaman stone equipped in every run

silk field
#

Guys reminder that if you have any issues that you should probably check the pins first

tiny blade
#

ok i will thanks

silk field
vestal island
#

my randomizer seed was finishable! i thought it wasn't for a while until i found dream nail where sharp shadow usually is

#

great mod thanks for making it!

#

how does "lemm sell all" work? is it a toggle?

glass meteor
#

talk to him on the right side

vestal island
#

that's neat. thanks

stiff wyvern
#

hey uhhh, im using the blackmoth mod, and i ran into a glitch, somtimes when i get hit while dashing or something the knight kinda just starts floating off, usually to the top left, and im not really able to get out of it, even with the debug mod

noble basin
#

oh geeze I thought this was patched by that mod

#

I know the fix because I did so for redwing but it's just not a fix that exists yet in that mod I guess.

half tundra
#

I haven't tried the latest version of Exaltation, but a fix isn't in the patchnotes. Whenever I use the upgraded sharp shadow for too long or through too many things, I start getting massive FPS decreases whenever it collides with something.

#

fixed by going to menu, but it starts over after a while

#

also, hitting certain things, even with no charms on, causes massive FPS drops. specifically white dung defender balls do it. I think Hornet's needle obstacles too. And other random things.

real jacinth
#

what game version you on?

#

memory leaks were a vanilla bug too for awhile

#

you could just be experiencing that

half tundra
#

well it's specifically when using sharp shadow

#

or razor shadow, but I can't revert to test

#

I never had this issue before mods

#

version is 1.4.3.2

real jacinth
#

does it still happen if you take the charm off

half tundra
#

no

#

it's funny though. dashing through things sharp shadow can't even hit will trigger the FPS drop

#

like the statue switches in godhome

#

(like what you hit to swap between nosk versions, for example)

#

and I guess, while I'm here, what happens if I uninstall exaltation? I figure it'll either break the save or at least lose all my glorified charms if I reinstall it

glass meteor
#

nothing

half tundra
#

nothing happens?

#

that's cool

glass meteor
#

glorified charms are stored in the save for if you reinstall the mod

#

and charm costs are reverted to normal

half tundra
#

awesome! thank you

vestal island
#

is there a description of what each thing in each of the mods does? i keep running into all these questions about the randomizer

#

i looked in the pins, but it didn't have the info i was looking for

real jacinth
#

readme

#

button next to "install" on the installer

#

each mod has one

vestal island
#

okay, then i'll ask here, since the randomizer just has "Randomizes item locations and optionally adds more completion restrictions."

#

what does the "all bosses" and other restrictions mean?

real jacinth
#

means you need to get those to beat the game

vestal island
#

okay, thanks

real jacinth
#

hornet won't let you into the black egg until all are complete

half tundra
#

that's not very nice of her

vestal island
#

"You haven't killed 26 bosses"

weary kindle
#

Ay modded runs you guys recomend, only mod I won't use is Art. The font is just pure pain

#

*Any
*recommend

sharp hinge
#

Exaltation is good for a little fun, Ultimatum Radiance is probably the best boss buff on there, and Hell Mod is my favorite "mode"

#

Unofficial Patch is also good, but do not use it with Hell

runic oriole
#

just rando

sharp hinge
#

in fact, Hell's best done by itself.

runic oriole
#

rando is life

novel bronze
#

wait where can you find mods? I've checked pins but couldn't find anything

runic oriole
#

pins

#

use the installer

novel bronze
#

ahh

weary kindle
noble basin
#

font is pure perfection

runic oriole
#

^

#

this, but serious

weary kindle
#

But any combintions of mods that could become full runs of the game like Randomizer and Hell mod which have both been recommended

noble basin
#

this but the is need to be improved but since I can't update fonts easily without asking 56 to do it since TMP broken on linux I won't.

#

srs talk tho

#

do at least one blackmoth run

#

it's not particularly hard

#

but it's hella fun

weary kindle
#

blackmoth + redwing?

runic oriole
#

no

#

just blackmoth

noble basin
#

no

#

blackmoth

runic oriole
#

and then redwing

#

they're both really satisfying

#

and OP

weary kindle
#

I heard both together are recommended

noble basin
#

redwing's getting large balance changes tho soon and it's gonna be kinda different and then everything is not gonna be as op

#

so play it now before it gets nerfed

runic oriole
#

same for blackmoth, but it's soon™

sharp hinge
#

let me know when those happen, guys

runic oriole
#

like

#

in 3 years

#

maybe

weary kindle
#

LB+RW+BM is op and practically breaks the game if you have all the dash charms on

noble basin
#

like I have an alpha of my balance changes but I need someone pro to test it and give feedback.

runic oriole
#

ask dlk

noble basin
#

and if I can figure out a good balance then I will work on adding charm integrations

weary kindle
#

Just wanted to show how broken all charms are together

#

From LB+BM+RW

noble basin
#

this is

#

beautiful

weary kindle
#

Brings tears to my eyes on how broken it is

#

After doing it you can't even stand on the floor anymore

#

Beautiful

noble basin
#

is this every mod downloaded

weary kindle
#

No only Lightbringer, BlackMoth, RedWing, and Infinite Charms. Are needed to make this happen but I think during the recording of this every mod was enabled

noble basin
#

I can see like 3 of my mods. if you had a fully leveled grimmchild I would have been able to see 5.

weary kindle
#

which mods were yours

noble basin
#

in the video or in general?

weary kindle
#

general

#

And if you make mods why aren't you labeled as a Modder on this server

noble basin
#

because admins don't trust me

#

with the immense incredible discord breaking power of manage messages in one channel.

#

no I'm serious that's actually why

weary kindle
#

And are you planning on doing anything ese with upgraded Grimmchild, I kinda expected more when I read that design was also changed on the readme.

noble basin
#

Anyway my main mods listed in the installer are: Infinite Grimm, Infinite notches (total meme mod), Redwing, Grimmchild Upgrades, Combo mod.

I've also made several pieces of art in art mods which include: Infinite Myla, Nuke Meme, Nuke Meme 2 (aka half-mod), and Shitmothst.

I've also made code for other people, mainly folding papers and Ttacco. I have a gitlab project called rapsheet that has much of papers' code. I also have written a fairly significant portion although not the majority of Hollow Point

rare rivet
#

Wait what

#

Dont trust you

noble basin
#

I don't want to maintain grimmchild upgrades anymore because I don't really consider it art.

rare rivet
#

When did I ever say that?

noble basin
#

idk y'all never talk to me so I'm forced to these assumptions ¯_(ツ)_/¯

weary kindle
#

rimmchild upgrades does make it more useful.\

rare rivet
#

Don't make assumptions about us please.

noble basin
#

ok well the real reason I'm not modder is because I make assumptions about admins

#

/s

#

but like

#

probably a nugget of truth in that

weary kindle
#

Also I read the readme again and it says I can change things about grimmchild, how do I do them?

noble basin
#

config file

#

if you wanna maintain grimmchild upgrades I would be more than happy to hand it off to someone who cares about it more than me

#

but probably I'ma give it to ttacco

tame tulip
#

have you tried

#

asking them

noble basin
#

lul ok

weary kindle
#

@noble basin Where is this stats.txt

noble basin
#

on github

weary kindle
#

Do you have a link somewhere

noble basin
weary kindle
#

Still can't find how to do this
Choose Grimmchild's color, or even opacity. Why limit your fire god to red?

noble basin
#

config file

#

where ur saves are

tame tulip
#

is that your video

noble basin
#

yes

tame tulip
#

lmao how did you get hit

weary kindle
#

Can you help out a bit mroe, I can't understand this

noble basin
#

cuz I'm bad at the game

#

uh

#

solike

#

open the file in notepad++ or something

#

and basically there's 3 float values for color

weary kindle
noble basin
#

no no no your saves folder

#

so where your save games are

#

that path is pinned to the channel

#

if you scroll down

weary kindle
#

It says go to Hollow Knight files under common but I don't see it

#

The screenshot above shows what I see

noble basin
#

%APPDATA%?

#

in there?

#

%APPDATA%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\ specifically here?

#

did you find it?

weary kindle
#

Yeah but what do I look for in this Hollow Knight folder

noble basin
#

uhh if you launched the game with grimmchild upgrades you should see a config file for it

#

and if not go launch the game with that mod installed and then quit it

weary kindle
#

???

noble basin
#

yeah see the GrimmchildUpgrades.GlobalSettings file?

#

open it in like notepad++ or something

#

(also make sure the game isn't running when you do this)

weary kindle
#

WHat do I do know

#

??

noble basin
#

yeah as you can see if you scroll to the bottom color is set by the last 4 variables

#

so the first key corrisponds to 2.5

#

the second one, maxRangeMult, to 2.0

#

etc etc

#

so for color just set those last four floats to whatever you want

weary kindle
#

Is there a video showing what they do?

noble basin
#

stats.md on the github page that I linked above roughly explains what the stats ones do

#

but it's pretty self evident I think

#

attack speed, range, ball movespeed, ball size. What they do is in the name

#

attack speed makes grimmchild attack faster

weary kindle
#

yeah

noble basin
#

range makes him have a larger radius he can hit

weary kindle
#

I mean what can each of the color ones do

#

since there are 4

noble basin
#

uh

#

alpha is transparency

#

red is red

#

green is green

#

blue is blue

#

basically at 1.0 for all of them grimmchild is at their normal color

weary kindle
#

transparency?

noble basin
#

like you can see through grimmchild if you have alpha = 0.5

#

and alpha 0.1 they are barely visible

weary kindle
#

In Infinite Grimm how do I enable this hardmode he speaks of

noble basin
#

remember how you edited that config file for grimmchild upgrades

glass meteor
#

🅱onfig file

noble basin
#

do that but for infinite grimm

weary kindle
#

Does hardmode do anything special

glass meteor
#

it makes him hard

#

death walls

#

NGG spikes

noble basin
#

it makes him a lot harder

#

normal mode is once you are like, DL level gud, zen mode basically

#

and if ur me good it's still challenging

weary kindle
#

And how do I enable it n the config file

noble basin
#

but hardmode is a challenge

#

that ramps up real quick

#

set the variable from false to true

weary kindle
#

welp I am enabling everything

glass meteor
#

that'll get you NGG hardmode

#

have fun with that

weary kindle
#

And I love it since nothing changed

#

What did I do wrong

noble basin
#

you didn't save the file or the game was still running

#

you can only edit the file when the game is closed

weary kindle
#

Still did nothing

simple widget
#

Anyone know how to set up Mod installer when you're game isn't installed to the C drive

#

I'm getting an unhandled exception error with no way to change the directory

#

Wait, it's actually telling me I'm missing an Assembly-Csharp.dll file in a folder

steep compass
#

hey, the mod installer doesn't work when your game folder isn't named Hollow Knight? thinkgrub

gray bloom
#

does the charm notch mod remove the notches from Salubra

noble basin
#

no and blame pirates for that never being changed @steep compass

steep compass
#

it's because of people pirating the game or should I blame outlaws which sail the sea?

noble basin
#

yes

#

the former ofc have the most direct impact but the latter have probably over the last 300 years helped shape the south america mod installer maker gradow grew up in and without them and the butterfly effect who knows where we'd be.

steep compass
#

but how does it work exactly? Pirates can't change the name of the folder to "Hollow Knight" or it's just that the Installer only recognizes a Steam directory?

noble basin
#

pirated game folders do not have Hollow Knight as a folder name by default

#

seriously

steep compass
#

the more I ask the less I understand thinkgrub

crystal bay
#

wow so that's why I can never install mods hollowface

steep compass
#

well I can install mods cause my GOG version is legit, it's just that for speedrun purposes I have a special HK folder which is called "hollow knight training" and the mod installer doesn't want to accept that directory thinkgrub

#

(I solved my problem by just installing it manually, tho)

Ive been trying to mod my game but all for nothing! HELP!

#

Does debug mod work for respawning Broken Vessel?

untold elm
#

it should

rare rivet
#

It always says "Theres no boss in this scene to respawn"

#

and instead has Lost Kin entry

#

Which makes sense

#

But I wonder if Debug Mod has a BV respawn?

glass meteor
#

i don't think it does

#

iirc

real jacinth
#

there's a few bosses that debug doesn't work on

#

Traitor lord is another one

#

BV is one too pretty sure

rare rivet
#

Yeeah that's fair, using multiple saves is an easy workaround

fickle oyster

I dont know where to post this other then here, but it has to do with modding so Ill just ask here.

So I currently want to play a modded run, but Im currently in a play session with about 30 hours that I dont want to get lost, corrupted, or some other thing I cant think of. Am I just worrying got nothing and I should just try it or should I not.

P.S if this is in the wrong place Ill gladly move it.

Modern mods do not hurt your save file. But just to be safe it's always good to back it up. And know how to use a save editor.

fickle oyster
#

Okay I know how to do either of those, but Ill google it, also thx

noble basin
#

the pins show you where your save files are located

fickle oyster
#

ok thx so much

fickle oyster
#

I downloaded the mod manager and Im putting all my faith into it because this is too much for my brain

the solution is of course deleting system32

just move all system files into one big folder

#

I have another question

#

Where do you find all the non-api mods

low heart
#

why would you use non-api mods

#

they're incompatible with 99% of all the mods out there

fickle oyster
#

What does the mod "Glorious Combos" do? I checked the mod summary and its not there

true flower
#

dose anyone know some good mods that ate adons for the game

warm helm
#

If I have the mod api installed does that make my speedruns disqualified?

silk field
#

this would fit more in #speedrunning. Im not sure if it would make you disqualified though

noble basin
#

yes it probably would

#

if you wanna speedrun with mods make an assembly mod and make sure it's well hidden enough to not be caught

Hey, i'm trying to install the lightbringiner mod, do I need to back my game up to an earlier version?

is lightbringer now an api mod?

alright, just got it

is there no.exe? i'm not really sure how to use it

real jacinth
#

Just use the installer in pins

modern nimbus
#

I have it downloaded, but htere's no .exe to open it?

#

I must be overlooking something

silk field
#

the installer automatically installs modcommon for me

modern nimbus
#

I jsut downloaded it

#

is the path I need, to the game itself?

silk field
#

to the folder where you have it installed

thanks @glass meteor

#

wut

#

fear the 56

steel furnace
#

it's saying that isn't a function sadly

#

I also tried HeroController.instance.proxyFSM.SendEvent("HeroCtrl-ShadowDash");

runic oriole
#

what precisely are you trying to do?

steel furnace
#

make it so that when the player attacks they also do a shadow dash

#

got it working though!

#

Found a mod on github called Blackmoth that does a similar thing and was able to get the solution from that 😃

silk field
#

did you know

that gradow made blackmoth

I've got an issue - with the modding api installed there is no controller input on linux. It worked fine last time I tried modding (pre-godmaster). The mods themselves work

real jacinth
#

what game version, what controller, what API did you install? I believe this issue was fixed in the current API

marsh wing
#

1.4.3.2-45 (from the installer) with an xbox wireless controller

real jacinth
#

no controller inputs are accepted at all?

#

is controller beta turned on?

#

are the batteries dead? lol

marsh wing
#

it works without the api installed but no inputs with. What controller beta?

real jacinth
#

in-game options

marsh wing
#

it just says no active controller

real jacinth
#

should be in the top one

#

game options

marsh wing
#

I don't see it

#

I got it to see the controller exists though (forgot I had disabled the driver to see if restarting it would fix the problem) but still no input

#

I can just use joy2key as a workaround

#

hopefully

real jacinth
runic oriole
#

^

#

this fixes it for me, if you don't want to use the steam controller settings

#

cons of using beta input: game crashes on s&q

#

cons of using steam controller settings: it takes a load on your CPU and also somehow controls your mouse and kb

marsh wing
runic oriole
#

wait, where are the audio, screen etc. options?

marsh wing
runic oriole
#

go to controller

marsh wing
runic oriole
#

huh, that's weird

no mention of it in the modding api settings json file either

What does the mod "Glorious Combos" do? I checked mod summaries and its not there

noble basin

it has a readme but basically it's a challenge mode for the pantheons that challenges you to get lots of hits quickly without taking damage

Does anyone know if something like a mod that binds nail arts to a separate button exists?

midnight scaffold
#

do redwing and blackmoth still work together properly?

runic oriole
#

yup

midnight scaffold
#

shouldn't it be making the nail do one damage then? or does redwing change that?

#

cause nail is doing normal damage with both installed

#

also it says it's supposed to be configurable but i don't see how to configure it

runic oriole
#

redwing overrides blackmoth 1nail damage

#

it's configurable, but outside of the game

#

there's a config file in your saves folder

midnight scaffold
#

ah ok. Nothing I could find said where the config file was at

#

thank you

runic oriole
#

np!

midnight scaffold
#

does upgrading nail take away the ability that makes enemies die after a few seconds of hitting them once?

@runic oriole Kinda extension or kinda retarded

noble basin

creator of redwing here

#

I have no idea how to answer "Is Redwing extension to Blackmoth mod?" anymore

#

sorry

runic oriole
#

It started out as an extension, but now it's its own thing

noble basin
#

but it still can sorta function as an extension?

#

idk

runic oriole
#

Yeah

noble basin
#

it's in a weird place rn

karmic charm
#

As compatible?

runic oriole
#

Sure

#

Redwing overrides some blackmoth stuff tho

noble basin
#

Both compatible and it detects certain blackmoth functions

#

it overrides one function by default that being damage dealt

#

and it ensures grubberfly works properly

#

and you never take damage from enemies while in it

#

which doesn't always happen in blackmoth at low fpses for some reason

#

because vanilla game programmed in dumb way

#

and also I sent like 6 PRs to gradow to improve compatibility with redwing/fix a few minor bugs

#

sidenote: hindsight being 20/20 I should have sent the grubberfly patch to gradow and not just put it in redwing but I was kinda sick of sending prs

#

sorry man

runic oriole
#

Don't worry, m8

#

I've been meaning to fix that for a long time, but... I'm feeling kind burnt out of modding lately

how do i install mods? specifically the randomizer mod

Where the api modding

#

Mod installer isnt working

#

Hello?

#

Help?

tiny blade
#

have you tried checking the pinned messages

untold elm
#

if the game is pirated then you can't do it

#

and if you renamed the game's folder

#

it doesn't work

#

those are the only ways it wouldn't work

icy elbow
#

Alright so basically i have no idea what im doing but really want to try out the mod randomizer? I tried to follow the video verulean made but things look different now so it didnt really help? somhow i managed to donwload the api and make it run just fine but im not sure what to do with the randomizer?

real jacinth
#

start a new save file

untold elm
#

new save file

#

then it gives you all the options for what you want

real jacinth
#

also, hard skips are speedrun tech

icy elbow
#

where do i put the randomizer files though?

real jacinth
#

you'll likely want to run with the easy preset

icy elbow
#

Ive read through those but i dont understand? the long message from step 3 onwards

real jacinth
#

use the installer

#

it does it for you

#

literally the thing that is linked

icy elbow
#

I didnt think i would need it at first but thats probably gonna be the best course of action

@runic oriole Where is the installation path supposed to go? The glitched menu keeps showing up when I use mods. Its either "Go to mods folder" or there's an error where the mods are apparently still being used.

noble basin
#

wut?

#

The installer says the mods are being used by another process.

#

However, nothing else is using the mods.

noble basin

Protip: dont try to install modinstaller if hollow knight isnt actually installed on the pc yet.

#

trying to install modinstaller when hollow knight isnt installed
really makes you think

rustic lintel
#

well i figured it was like its own program in its own folder, but it does make sense , hollow knight is like at 95% downloaded anyways

#

the modinstaller gave me an unhandled exception when i tried to close it when it asked for the path

#

Is there somewhere I can get an idea of what all of the mods do? Readme buttons are greyed out.

silk field
#

you install the mods and then you have access to the readme's

rustic lintel
#

🤔

silk field
#

doesnt make much sense but that's how it works on the installer

real jacinth
#

or you go to the drive and read them there

#

the mod installer downloads the things, so then you can read the file, cuz it's downloaded after you install it

rustic lintel
#

Are ther eissues using non api mods with api mods? specifcially the 110% mod

#

if modding turns into speedrunning does that mean you can turn speedrunning into modding 🤔 🤔 🤔

novel bronze
#

So how do?

#

Is there a specific hook for it?

safe canopy
#

you should just ask in modding 🤔 people talk about off topic stuff there all the time

#

either way theres no hook for killing bosses specifically,
they might have playerdata vars for killed,
but otherwise you need to wait for their scene to load, find them and check if they are dead

#

you can probably hook the die function for healthmanagers too

novel bronze
#

how do I do that? i'm not very experienced in coding.

safe canopy
#

theres monohooks for everything in modcommon now I think

#

and it should just be something like On.HealthManager.Die += myFunction if you have modcommon.dll

#

also you mispelt implemented

glass meteor
#

monohooks are in api now

they went from hooks.dll to modcommon.dll to assembly-csharp.dll

So I was curious what all the boss location hints were in Hall of Gods, so I used a save editor to give myself all the movement upgrades from the start so I could get to Godhome without beating any bosses.

I don't think anyone's bothered to update it in a long time

It's a trivial mod I'll just remake it

I mean the ui will look wrong

#

but functionally it will work

#

glass soul ui literally just destroys the health bar

real jacinth
#

glass soul is best played with your own integrity

noble basin
#

oh also you don't get bonus dmg or whatever you got for collecting masks

heady hornet
#

that's fine

#

now i just

versed needle
#

Oh yeah that was a thing

heady hornet
#

don't know how to install it

real jacinth
#

get hit and die

versed needle
#

I forgot it had functionality beyond insta death

real jacinth
#

insta death is the only one that matters

heady hornet
#

yeah

#

so should i just copy it into my hollow knight folder or

real jacinth
#

which is also satisfied by, you know.... getting hit, then save quitting

noble basin
#

glass soul has 3 parts:

  1. destroy health bar UI and resize the soul meter to be bigg%
  2. insta kill player
  3. slightly bonus dmg for getting masks
#

I think the bonus dmg was on nail hits only cuz 753 bad coder :grimmdab:

#

(sorry 753, I understand why you didn't do spell dmg because fsms are jerks)

versed needle
#

Put it in the mods folder

heady hornet
#

alright

#

thanks

#

(wait i need to create that in managed right)

versed needle
#

Wait

#

Was the old glass soul an assembly mod?

heady hornet
#

i'm not sure

versed needle
#

Alright it probably was if you don't already have a mod folder

#

Run the mod installer and just install the API

heady hornet
#

Time to just wait for this page to load

#

Thanks for the help though

versed needle
#

Oh I think it's down

#

@noble basin

noble basin

ohfucccc

Not super related here

#

But still fucking annoying

fuck I knew I forgot something

#

ok dunno how long it actually takes to update but I fixed it

heady hornet
#

ok well now the problem lies in that i can't reach the mod installer page

noble basin

that's because https requires domain names

I mean I don't know how to read errors and when I read that error I see: Oh shit is my SSD/harddrive failing lemme check SMART asap.

same

versed needle
#

Time for manual install I guess

noble basin
#

verify game integrity on steam

#

for one

versed needle
#

That shouldn't matter

#

I mean yeah the game is fucked because there's an old glass soul from whatever version

noble basin
#

ok wtf is this error then

versed needle
#

But API should override it

noble basin
#

Central directory corrupt

versed needle
#

No idea

#

Replace Assembly-CSharp.dll in managed with the one in there

#

Then make a Mods folder and put glass soul in it

Alright it's working now.

Does it say just that, or that as well as the Debug Mod

clear mesa

it just says that

#

i downloaded the debug mod and put it the files

low heart

then you haven't installed the debug mod properly

#

are you sure it's inside the mods folder inside managed?

clear mesa
#

theres nothing there

#

i downloaded from the github

#

but no mod

#

just the api

#

okay never mind

#

im a moron

#

i didnt actually download the debug mod

rare rivet
#

haha

#

so i drop the files from the debug mod folder into the mods folder?

there should be only one file

if you have it uncompiled, it's not gonna work

there you can grab the actual dll

I got question about Mod Installer pinned on this server,

I'm new to modding, so can you explain me how to fix black screen ( after Team Cherry logo, 10 seconds of black screen and then CTD ) when I install modding API from it?

real jacinth
#

what patch are you on

#

installer is meant for current patch

amber stream
#

wait nevermind just lightbringer is making that bug

#

Lighbringer need some other mods?

I got newest steam version

did you install modcommon?

should auto-install with the installer

#

same with the API

amber stream
#

yes it did

#

installer DID install modcommon and api

real jacinth
#

@glass meteor you ported it for 1432 right?

#

does the game actually load up? or it just crashes everytime?

amber stream
#

Without Lightbringer it loads every time

#

with-never

real jacinth
#

Did you try manual install?

amber stream
#

How to do it because I'm not sure?

real jacinth

download the lightbringer .dll

#

paste it into the mods folder where your game is

amber stream

okay, thanks
