And again

how do i download saves off of speedrun.com? specifically, i placed the watcher knight save into the folder mentioned but nothing appeared in game
why
how do you mod hollow knight?
pisces, screenshots pls so we can see what you did
@hybrid narwhal #archived-modding-development 's the channel you wanna ask around in for help with coding
@real jacinth this is the folder it said to put the file in before doing anything to it. I downloaded off of the site and it was a file called user1.dat. i placed it into here directly as well as tried to change the file type to match the others in the folder
Don't change the extension, you made it a backup file instead of a save file
Whenever I attempt to install the Lightbringer mod it says that the ' Access path is denied ' Do I have to reinstall the mod manager?
Nvm just reinstalls it works now
how do you open the modding api after closin g it
also in my previous question iu meant how do you download mods for hk
Can i ask questions about mods here or is this justfor help with modding
oh saw it higher up
Anyways
On the redwing mod how do i make it so i dont have infintie soul
it makes the game extremely easy
You dont
well is there a way to
@elfin jasper i meant that i did those two things separately
i had it in as just a dat file at first
but when i opened the game it appeared to have been wiped somehow
and was gone from the folder
also sorry for the late response, still at work
why does it even have infinite soul
how do i use the custom knight mod?
i think the readme says how to use it
#archived-modding-development pins also has a guide pinned
Custom Knight doesn't have a readme, however
Sorry if this message is repetitive, but where I can get area rando or what is the name in the modinstaller?
@acoustic basalt To use the custom knight mod you have to download a sprite sheet from the sprite sheet directory or make a sprite sheet yourself, and place the sheet files in Hollow knight>Hollow_knight_data>Managed>Mods>Customknight
Then run the game and it should be working
Thanks!
Can anyone tell me how I can get mods
I downloaded it but it won't let me download it to the folder
Buy the game
I did

Where's it from
Oof
It is I told it to go to my steam folder then hollow knight
Then why is it looking at a folder called "hollow knight godmaster"
That's not even in the steam tree

Lol
you manually made a shortcut?
especially when steam automatically makes a desktop shortcut

mind showing your steam library?

Hello, I'm trying to install the randomizer mod but having trouble. I'm aware a lot of people are coming here for help too, so I'll describe my issue as clearly as posssible.
So I have the SeanprCore installed via mod installer along with the Randomizer 2.9 mod, all in Hollow Knight>hollow_knight_Data>Managed>Mods . Every time I start the game, a grey loading bar appears, makes a clicking noise, and then the game crashes. Any idea what's going wrong and how to fix it?
I remember someone else had this issue, but I don't recall how it was fixed
Says I have 15.9 GB of RAM available. I'm fairly new to pcs in general so is that the issue?
okay so it isn't RAM
LOL
some of my mods won't uninstall and qol always says it's outdated even tho i update it everytime
okay i found a way to uninstall mods now but randomizer v2 won't work it says that it failed to load
is it enemy rando
What is that item (charms, abilities, collectables) randomizer mod called?
Randomizer 2
ok thx
also, i have a mod installed that gives you more save slots. Above my 4 standard saves it says "Page 1/2". How do i get to the other page?
thx
np
what rando
you want

hm
itis
a shitpost
its amazing btw
makes your game 56x better
is it common for grimmchild to get stuck and lose ai when using the grimmchild upgrades mod? this seems to happen randomly to me while doing the pantheon of hallownest where he will get stuck and stop following or teleporting and i'm not sure whats wrong
ive reinstalled the mod installer a couple times now and checked file integrirty
i'm not using infinite grimm if thats the problem
@noble basin
it's a bug that started happening when gods and glory came out and I'm sure there's a fix for it but I'm not sure what causes it. Mind sending me your modlog file if you have one? or better would be your player.log file
did it change
yes
ok
was that change in modding api or in the base game
wow thanks TC for fixing your game a bit
sorry i dont know what im doing could you give me the file path?

Hi, I cant get the random room mod to work. I tried following the tutorial in the description of this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMJfCtKr-KM) but all it did is enable the regular randomizer mod but not the room randomizer.
The beginning of a playthrough of Room Randomizer (timestamps below) by homothety, a new twist on the item randomizer mod that can also randomizer area trans...
ok
wow im stupid i was looking in roaming instead of appdata 
@noble basin do you want me to dm you the output and mod logs or just give them here
thats ok thanks for trying
how do i download room randomizer? is it now the same mod as normal randomizer but with more stuff? if so how do i update? i tried the pinned message in randomizer races but it takes me to multiworld mod, is that the name of the room randomizer mod?
there's more than just 1 pinned message
is it possible to play room randomizer without item randomizer?
no
ok
what are the chances my room randomizer will be unbeatable?
so far it seems as i have no where to go
well i think i think the first seed i tried is unbeatable
but i will try more stuff like pogo jumping skips and such
I'd do a randomizer run but I don't own hollow knight pc
Same
omega rip
I have dll the Debug Mod, how do I use it ?
I put the DLL file in the right place
OK I succes
me sucess either
exm, why cannot i find the way for mac to use mod installer in the pinned massage? can anyone pls point for me? thx
oh i found it... what's wrong with my eyes?
Yes, mods can be installed on a mac.
You can use the installer
To run the installer:
- Open the Terminal
- Type
cd $(dirname - Drag the exe onto the terminal.
- Type
)then hit Return/Enter - Type
mono --arch=32(Note the space at the end) - Drag the exe onto the terminal and then hit Return/Enter
If this fails with bash: mono: command not found then
- install mono here
- Open a new terminal window
- Type/paste in
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:${PATH}and hit Return/Enter - Repeat steps 2-6 above.
this means that the multiworld server was built seccessfully, right?
*successfully
yes
thanks a lot
wait its done?
mac and multiworld:
the same problem with rando 2.9, that when the new game started the game accidentally stoped working.
i saw something about socket, does it represents something about the websocket.dll?
mac and rando2.9.1:
nothing defferent for all 4 types (item, map, connected room, room)
i cant use randomizer 
which one
randomizer 1

buddy
is it normal for the enemy randomizer to crash at 94%?
yes
can I fix it?
try again until it works
but don't get your hopes up
The mod has been abandoned for a long time
got it, thanks
I would really like to see 2 billion dollars cash
@pine sierra That just means the server lost connection to your game
Hey, new here, just wanted to ask about some mods that would make the game a lil bit easier. I know the community really likes the difficulty and all, but I would love to be able to see more of the game. I'm just bad at it, I know ๐
I have seen some invulnerability mods but I don't think that would me much fun to use
Install infinite notches, and use debug mod to give yourself the Unbreakable Heart and Unbreakable Strength charms. That should help with the difficulty
Thank you but I'm guessing that makes it so I don't take damage and can have infinite charms, not exactly what I was looking for. Are there any that just tweak the nail damage and the damage taken?
that is pretty much what he just suggested
unbreakable strength increases your nail damage by 50%
and unbreakable heart gives you 2 extra masks
alternatively you can edit your save to set your nail damage and masks to what you want to have
the end result will be roughly the same
Okay, I can manage from now, thank you again. I was kinda expecting for you just to say 'git gud' ๐
haha dude only if modding was toxic :)
git gud
I downloaded the custom knight mod and enabled it and I looked in the mods in the hollow knight data and I don' t see it
I may be installing it wrong, when It say select the mod, it makes me install what's inside the file
Is that what i'm suppose to select?
Cause ingame it says the mod like, didn't load
oop wait thats with
another mod problem
srry
I switched subjects on accident
so u good
cool
how can i reset the keybinds for the debug mod?

Not exactly, at least

Those videos seem to be from the art mods btw
Which is a shitpost compilation
Umm... are these prices broken? I really have no idea

it does literally nothing other than give a %
Hello i'm new on modding and i want how to mod hollow knight and i'd like to mod it
How i can start ?
Thx
why is the disabled folder inaccessible
it is?
yes, it is
I can't do anything to it
I don't even know what caused it
I can't change permissions because the computer doesn't allow me to do that
.... Why don't you have perms on your own computer
so i'm really stupid and i never found DebugMod.GlobalSettings.json anywhere on my computer

Yeah, directory works regardless
finally, i got it thank you for putting up with my stupidity
Where can I change Infinite Grimm's difficulty?
Where is that?
in a folder called Team Cherry
oh ok
that you probably need to do a Disc Search for

Hello I am new to Hollow Knight speedrunning. I have recently started attempting the NMG Any% and have hit the roadblock with the Watchers boss fight. I watched Vysuals explanation on how it is done, but he explains nothing about how to use the debug mod. I have downloaded the Mod API for version 1.2.2.1 and it seems to be working. I am just lost when it comes to what to do with the debug mod afterwards. Thanks in advance if anyone can help.
mac with randomizer:
api v51, seanprcore, modcommon0.0.6, websocket-csharp.dll
rando 2.0 : yes
rando 2.5 : cannot save
rando 2.6 : cannot save
rando 2.7 : cannot save
rando 2.7.1 : cannot save
maprando 1.01 : cannot start a new game
maprando 1.02 : cannot start a new game
maprando 1.03 : cannot start a new game
rando 2.9 : cannot start a new game
rando 2.9.1 : cannot start a new game
i am think seriously about buying a new computer of windows
hey uhh anyone knows how to edit key bindings for debug mod? I wanna make it so that "unhide menu" isn't f1
Sad Mercy is there any chance you can help me with installation of the debug mod? Assuming you have it for 1.2.2.1...
uh
@exotic orbit you can edit the code of debug and change , you might ask a modder and he ca do it for you , its p ez
@split sparrow
If you don't want to use an installer, or if you prefer a more textual guide, please follow this easy and simple step-by-step guide. (This is assuming you have a Windows system. Check the File Paths in the pins if you are using a Mac.)
- Make sure your Hollow Knight version is up to date.
- Download all the mods you need from the Google Drive. You need the Modding API first and foremost, together with the API mod of your choosing (also found there). MAKE SURE YOU DOWNLOAD FOR THE CURRENT VERSION OF THE GAME WHEN YOU DOWNLOAD THE MODS. (current version: 1.4.2.4)
- Locate your Hollow Knight data folder. (Usually found in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight
- Merge the folders from the download (hollow_knight_Data) with the mods you just downloaded. A simple drag and drop should work, the folder names just have to match up.
- Make sure \Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\Mods exists and has the mod .dll of the mod you want to download. If not, place it in there. It should just be there as a .dll and not as a folder.
- Boot up the game and see if in the top left corner, mod information is displayed (just a name and a version number). If not, verify game integrity (Right-click on the game on Steam, click Properties, go to the Local Files tab and press Verify integrity of game files.) and install the Modding API again as shown in Step 3.
Enjoy your modded Hollow Knight experience!
First thing I'm using 1.2.2.1. I don't think that should be an issue as Vysuals uses the same and has debug working correctly for him as shown in a tutorial video I watched. It's possible I haven't downloaded the correct debug mod... The one I downloaded is located here https://github.com/seanpr96/DebugMod. The only problem is that there are no dll files to place into the mods folder. I must be misunderstanding what I'm supposed to be doing.
@tawny carbon
@exotic orbit click the circles on the right side of the key bindings menu
I have sent him a message. We'll see if he responds. ๐
๐
Thanks for the input though. I appreciate it.
np
@versed needle what menu? the standart game one? i can't see anything there. If it's the mod menu you're talking about, i've already closed it and am now unable to reopen it because... well, i guess my f1 doesn't work
Hold fn
Problem solved!
now I just have to figureout how to use the mod lol
@tawny carbon wrong person, but thanks in advance!
@split sparrow nothing's happening. am i doing it wrong? where should i be holding it?(also - fn is the one next to windows key, right?)
are you sure that you have debug
@split sparrow oh sorry, wrong again
๐
try other buttons
@tawny carbon like what? any? ok
Hold fn and press f1
During one second I thought I had a friend



@versed needle worked, thanks a lot!
can somebody tell me how to make a savestate of my hollow knight game data? would be nice of you owo
Is it normal getting an exception when trying to read a mod Readme in modinstaller?
Is the Randomizer 2 mod broken for anyone else?
start a save, quit out, start a new save
will try
It did not work. I just noticed that the top left says that the Randomizer 2 mod is failing to load.
SeanprCore
Oh, didn't realize that was required. Thanks! Did it used to work without SeanprCore? I don't remember ever enabling that before even though I have used the randomizer before.
yes
k. i'll paste it there
k
how can i create a mod ?
thx
np
Can anyone here help with the debug mod? Eg. what does it do, how do I install it. Mainly wanna take some screenshots without the HUD
debug mod will be on the installer
@spring marsh
Does it work with existing saves or will I need to create a new one?
I think most mods work on existing saves, except maybe the randomizers?
debug mod does work with existing saves
ok, thanks everyone
So where can I get the Health Bar mod?
Why does the item randomizer mod not randomize artifacts with other categories like spells and charms. All it does is randomize to a different artifact.
the one on the installer doesn't rando relics at all
the one in #randomizer does
you have to install it manually though
Much appreciated
So how does Custom Knight work like is there already created sprites or do you ahve to do it yourself? THere is no read me
facts
kk
Is there a way to get the code Team Cherry used for the game? Like the Knight's movement and abilities?
what are you looking for specifically
and not all things can be seen with dnSpy
cuz a lot of it is in Playmaker FSMs
Mainly the Knight's and Hornet's code
for what purpose though, is my question. what are you looking for in the code?
The Knight's movement right now. I'm trying to recreate some of the Silksong demo and I need the movement code to work off of.
Thanks
what is that ?
knight go/fsm dump:
oh
The code for movement is in C# anyway so you won't need the FSM viewer
or @safe canopy
which file
knight go/fsm dump
i tryed with mono develop but i get this
START =====================================================
Printing scene hierarchy for game object: Knight
Knight
--Component: Transform
--GameObject activeSelf: True
--GameObject layer: 9
--GameObject tag: Player
--Transform Position: (34.1, 36.4, 0.0)
its probably just a text file
with a list of everything on the knight
you components you can find with dnspy, and the fsms you can find with the fsm viewer
with 25000 lines ?ยฟ
fk
What is it you're trying to do, even?
i want to do a mod with tiso as a boss @versed needle but I don't know where to start
i don't know how to do a mod 
Oh
The hardest part of that is going to be the artwork
Do you have a plan for that?
i have some idle sprites
i'll draw the others
iguess
but i need help to the mod creation because i dont know how to do mods on hollow knight
The basic idea is gonna be an object with a HealthManager and DamagesHero component
That spawns subcolliders for the attacks
- whatever you choose to use for AI and animation
SpriteRenderer doesn't support animation by itself but it's very simple to make an animator for it
I'm happy to give more in depth help if you need it
This should be moved to #archived-modding-development though, this channel is meant for tech support
About Lightbringer:
the description of Fragile Nightmare amulet is th same with original Fragile Strength, is it ok?
what
Fellas what the fuck
redownload the installer
now there will be a tons of people who will say that ๐ฉ again again and again
Alright new problem
Pale Champion just doesn't want to exist
The installation went fine
The dll file is in the folder
I open up the game
Not there
No
@crystal bay
The mod doesn't show up in the top left
Tried it
if the mod was glitching it would at least say check the log file
I don't speak smart person so I don't know what anything in this means
All I can understand is checking preloads for mods in which Pale Champion does not show up
Send ModLog.txt from ...\AppData\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight
I may have messed it up while uploading
the new version
i don't mean to interrupt the convo here but
i went to go launch the mod installer to install another mod when it came up with a message that said that it stopped working
which i was a little confused about
since the debug mod i'm using currently works fine
redownload installer
I pin this but no one's going to read it anyways

I tried reinstalling the installer because the same thing happened to me and uh
clear cache then reinstall or reinstall in incognito mode @winged void
um @glass meteor
github is having a seizure
ok
Oh
incredible coincidence how this lined up with me deleting modlink 
Weird, I still have my mods on even with this probelm of the Modinstaller
yeah you just can't download new ones until GitHub decides to be alive
which it may be now
So do I install the Modinstaller again?
Oh ok
you wait till github lives
Im in now
Modinstaller is now working 
Randomizer 2.9.1, I started a seed - Leg Eater has random items, restarted the game at some point - suddenly Leg Eater has vanilla items. Save&quit solved the problem, the randomized items seem the same as initially. Still I thought may be interesting to report. 
hey guys so modinstaller was working yesterday and now
redownload modinstaller
i tried
in incognito mode
on incognito too
@glass meteor 
nice emote
yeah i just redownloaded it for the 2nd time from incognito and it does the same thing
there's an exe if you scroll up in #archived-modding-development if you want to try that
okay so another issue
i tried enemy randomizer and every time it the loader gets stuck at 94%
unsurprising
You guys fucked up the installer arent you 
I did and it's working now.
Parasonic's problem is related to the mod not the installer.
ok
I disabled QoL Mod and Enemy Randomizer worked
ENEMY RANDOMIZER IS FUCKING BROKEN
Yes it is
Collectors jump and get never seen again
Oh ye
Normal Collector still summons normal enemies
i mean the loading part
Oh
also it can break your other mods
I have a problem i got hollow knight from the microsoft store and i want to download mods but the installation is at the app data folder and i cant access it please help
I think you can't mod hk if you got it from there tagging @glass meteor to make sure
virgin yeet skeet vs chad yeet yeet monster
you can probably overwrite the files from another os
might want to try iobit's file unlocker
if that doesn't work you're fucked
okay thanks for the information
Quick question for anyone who might know - How does Resilience work for the Bonfire Mod? I'm curious because I leveled it up and it says 3 Extra Masks which I assume are Health? If so they didn't appear.
Oh.. I see. Well, darn. Seemed like a cool Mod
I'm guessing if I uninstall it I should probably start over?
start over what?
Restart the game
One save file, I would assume? I saw mentions of things needing new save files to work so I assumed you might need to restart the game if you'd played it with a Mod installed.
yeah
Hm.. One last question before I stop bothering people - Is there any way to know if a Mod is updated and working for the most recent version of Hollow Knight?
yeah, if you enable the mod and it doesn't work, it isn't working
just because you are correct doesnt means you are right
But it doesn't
you okay there sugar?
i thought the yeet yeet monster = 56
same
what
what

what am i supposed to look for in the hollow knight installation folder?
hollow knight location
like in what folder its located in?
okay
wait
i got a error
Unhandled exception has occured in your application if you click continue the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue if the you click quit the application will close immendiantly
the file cannot be accessed by the system
can you show the location that you chose?
yes
no
this is a useless path
that's why I said try the file unlocker
The files have fucked perms
no


My mod installer doesn't work. I can't believe there exist monsters in this world who would break the mod installer for no reason 
56 probably paid Saleh off to do it so he could secretly siphon off all of the donation money flowing to Gradow through the installer 
randomizer drives local modder crazy, attacks peers!

wait if saleh is getting paid that means i should get paid for working on PC ๐ค
@tawny carbon Thanks for the help earlier. Had to run off before to do a couple things. ๐
@elfin jasper my mod installer also isn't working
I can't believe it
np
I found an issue, I want to use the enemy randomiser by kerr and the randomiser mod by seanpr, the latter however requires (for me at least) the use of the seanpr core... This core removes the load enemy randomiser button however... anyone have an idea on how to fix this
ahh ic thanks anyway
np
Guys, I tried to get rid of the mod installer with mods still on. I got rid of it, but still have mods. So I downloaded it again and this happened. What do I do?
download installer in incognito mode
Thanks

hey yall, I"m trying to get the save state debug mod installed onto my game thats on 1.2.2.1, and I'm not finding any success
is there any version of the mod installer that works for 1.2.2.1?
I don't think it was even around at the time
no
but
you can

Enjoy your modded Hollow Knight experience!
finally
Does anyone know why custom knight might not be working?
Mods installed: bonfire, light ringer, enemy hp bars, custom knight.
I have the sprite sheets in hollow_knight_data/managed/mods/customknight
Custom knight shows up in both the top left and the mod options menu.
I have the grimm knight sheets put in but everything looks like this:
Only the soul orb is changed:
The vengeful spirit is also the altered version
@umbral niche I noticed when I installed Lightbringer that Custom Knight stopped working. I think Lightbringer has custom stuff itself that overwrites it
Damn, that's a shame if that's the case
Yeah, just checked on a new save file with light ringer disabled and the textures worked fine
yeah lightbringer overwrites custom knight
Also I feel a ton weaker in Lightbringer than I did in the normal game lol
o_O I just got some of Selubra's charms and holy crap I no longer feel weak
yeah
Huh apparently if you have the Tiny Shell equipped your model isn't tall enough to loot the Mantis Claw lol
lmao
help
that work thank
Oh she remains dead?
The path to joni's blessing is blocked off too...
what
Theres a ( platform? ) on the path to it
Ill get you a pic
something blocks me in here
i do not recall this being a thing in the unmodded game
I am right from cornifer
Thats the path to joni's blessing
If anything i can kill a vengefly up there with AS
that's the dive shortcut my guy
But like, im right from cornifer
Hello I would like to learn about Hollow Knight modding
I meant more of how to make my own mods
The file format does not seem to be very mod friendly
my game seems to think i have mods downloaded which i dont
actual modding is for #archived-modding-development
grimmchild gets replaced with carefree melody when i fight nkg in the pantheon and hall of gods
and voidheart got changed to kingssoul and i dont know how
i dont have infinite grimm installed im not sure whats going on
That would be the charm rebalance mod
Reinstalling mod installer might fix
ive done that and deleted mods folder
Yea its charm overhaul
You mean changing carefree with Grimmchild?
yeah
Also charm overhaul
thats strange it never did that before
Defeating NKG swaps between them
maybe i had a older version?
Wait there might be a precondition
Ok you have to be wearing compass
For the swap to work
also i have these files for infinite grimm but i think thats just grimmchild upgrades files
ohhhh
that explains it
ty
Can i get help on the mod installer here?
it worked for my problem
Ok, but WHY does that work?
Because Saleh yeeted modlinks.xml and therefore the new one has a new modlinks.xml ref
Incognito is sometimes necessary because sometimes the download is cached
Ah, thank you
Where do you copy debugmod.dll? Where in game folder?
the savestates aren't on the version that the installer has
I downloaded debugmod.dll from the resources channel.
oh

I should make myself more clear. I downloaded debugmod.dll file for 1.4.3.2 from resources channel. Now how do i make it functional in game so that i can save anywhere?
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\Mods
thats the spot you put it in
thankyou so much
and if you have the api and all that shit in there too
it should work
then you just set the binds for savestates ingame
yea what?
oh ok
^ but in incoginto mode
@novel bronze did it work
yea
I've already tried redownloading the installer, as well as running it as admin, and I'm at a loss. I also get the occasional message to "use the most recent stable build of the game", but my game is already up to date. am big lost.
Anyone have the slightest idea what I'm doing wrong here? o.o;
Edit: The issue was the modDB version being borked, I guess, got it from the creator's site and it's working fine now.
what is incognito mode?
what browser are you using
firefox
its called private browsing on firefox iirc
How do i do it
what do i do next
go to the download page
moddb?
no
thank you
@novel bronze don't download on moddb, look at what i said literally right before you asked. ;p
@crystal bay stop fucking things
Sorry for asking so many questions, but how to I get the settings for Glorious Combos? Supposedly it can be edited to make it viable in normal gameplay, but I'm not getting any file to edit it's settings.
To be fair this problem is like 2 days old now
I'm going to preface this by saying while I do own a pirated copy, it's just because I have actually no money and fully intend to buy the game the moment I can responsibly afford it. That being said, mods dont seem to work (I'm not sure where the "correct" download path is), does anybody have any advice?
ok
Does anyone have a link to where I can download the mod installer for PC?
and I looked it up and I couldn't find one that worked
also, @flint parcel I found a clone of you
Do tell
so they are your clone eh
Speaking of links
Don't join the server "zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz"
They hacked me and deleted everything in Grub Gang
why would somebody hack that useless of a server
I got dmed by the bot and just blocked it tbh
They have 2000 members and the link was sent by a bot, idk
Probably just spam
Whatever it is, GG is gone and I'm warning people
this is what I did
Huh
I attempted to say no to the bot then blocked it
could someone help me? i'm trying to enable some mods but there not working. Anyone know whats wrong? Thanks in advance.
tell us what you mean by not working please
well when i'm in the mod manager i used to able to just click enable on the mods i want to use but now when i enable them and open Hollow Knight no mods are activated. That my best way i can explain whats happening.
Are the mods there in ...\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\Mods
go to that folder and tell me if you find .dll files with the name of the mods you want enabled
honestly just uninstall and reinstall on the modinstaller
that would probably fix it
well i just tries that and its still doesn't work.
tired*
and i couldn't find anything that had .dil
.dil
In the mods Google drive I see a bad translation mod thing, how would I go about installing it? Its not a DLL file it's a bunch of txt files
Hello, I would be very grateful if someone could help me understand if I can finish my Randomizer 2.9.1 seed or not
Shopkeeper's Key is at Rancid Egg-Waterways East, which means next to Isma's Grove. In the logic (if I understand correctly) it requires Isma's Tear if I don't have a claw, and I don't have a claw because it's behind the shopkeeper's key. And the Tear is in the Howling Cliffs at King's Idol. I do have Shade skips turned on but the logic seems to require Claw for Howling Cliffs.
You can finish every seed
Do you have miscskips on?
Yes
Then shade skip to Howling Cliffs
Oh, I didn't know, thanks!
You can set it up in the Baldur Shell room, though on that version you may have to die to the shade to get it in the right location because an enemy was removed in Lifeblood
Thank you ๐
Vengefly skip is not a thing in Kings pass no?
That's actually pretty easy to do
Is it possible to run mods on Linux?
yes
How do I do it?
install them, then play
See, it's the installation that gives me pause.
How do I run a .exe on a linux machine?

just use windows for games man
Is there a list of all the available mods?
๐
What does the Unofficial Hollow Knight Patch do?
Is there a list all the Quality of Life changes it adds?
According to the readme, it fixes an obscure Sharp Shadow bug and changes a sprite in Hall of Gods
Is that all?
and a bug where you lose an extra lifeblood heart
but yeah
@quiet turret don't use wine
you can run the installer using mono
Wine would ruin the os detection on the installer anyways
I see.
The API itself is cross platform as the game is .NET and run using Unity's weird version of mono
as well as basically all mods
The only thing I want to install is the randomizer.
But I'm not sure how to do that on Linux.
The same as on windows
Except you run the installer via mono
i.e. mono ~/Downloads/ModInstaller.exe probably
Which version of Mono do I need?
Because I don't yet have mono installed.
Also, I have steam installed in a non-standard location. I hope that's not too much of an issue.
Anything on basically any distro's standard repo should be fine
non-standard location doesn't matter
Pointless
Also, is the mod installer open source?
I might just compile and run it myself if mono fails.
I know.
Unless you plan on writing your own version of the .net runtime
No. I don't.
Will I need to grab the files for my desired mod from the google drive, or does the mod installer do that for me?
The latter
If you don't want to grab mono you can just install the mods by hand
It involves moving all of 2 files
I see.
I might just do it manually.
So, the mod installer is asking me to select my HK. What file do I give it?
n/a
go to where the hollow knight file is
hollow_knight_Data
the folder
presumably in ~/.steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight
unless you have a different steam library in which case you know where it is
I don't have steam installed in ~/.steam/steamapps But I know where to find that file.
Even if you had the file there steam isn't installed there
It's just a symlink to .local/share/steam
Alright... this installer isn't letting me chose hidden dot files.
So I guess I'll do it manually.
What files do I need in order to get the randomizer working, and where do I put them?
there's a pin on it
But Ctrl-H probably shows hidden files and if not I'm pretty sure the qt and gtk file selectors both allow just entering paths
Except that I don't have either of those installed and this installer is using some archaic piece of software as the file selector.
Except that both of those are standard gui frameworks and if you have any sort of modern web browser or de for that matter you have them
Yeah... I'm running a weird OS.
I'm running a thing called NixOS. It's weird.
Oh, you do?
The only strange thing is non-standard file structure but that doesn't change much with xdg variables handling everything for applications
Yeah
It's a good distro
Yeah, but it also means that every application runs in what's basically it's own sandbox. If I don't have qt installed globally, mono can't find it.
