#

was your game open

#

while these things happening

#

also dd you install it from

real jacinth
#

do you have only one copy of the game

storm flare
#

the game was closed and i only have one copy

real jacinth
#

the installer isn't even "installed"

#

it's just an exe

tawny carbon
#

did you press enable button

real jacinth
#

try closing it and reopening it while the game is closed, should download the API

#

that's probably all you're missing

plucky kestrel
#

did you set the path correctly when it first loaded?

#

it might be that it's trying to install mods in the wrong location

real jacinth
#

unless it's already done that, and it put it aside, which is what the "enable all" button does

#

still haven't said if you've pressed that button or not

tawny carbon
#

yes

#

tell

real jacinth
#

the installer wouldn't even show the main mod screen if it wasn't pointed to the game directory

#

and since they only have one copy installed, it's going to the right place

plucky kestrel
#

ok

#

just checking

real jacinth
#

that's why I asked that question

tawny carbon
#

@storm flare

#

where did you gooo

storm flare
#

i've got it working again somewhat

#

also yes i did press it (idk lol im some form of troglodyte idiot)

#

this is like watching a burning circus except kind of annoying now tbfh

tawny carbon
#

#

so it works

storm flare
#

clever ginkgo
#

i'm trying to play hollow knight with enemy randomizer but it stucks at 88% help me please

real jacinth
#

when did you download it

clever ginkgo
#

idk modinstaller said randomizer has a new update

crystal bay
#

did you update?

clever ginkgo
#

yes

real jacinth
#

install seanprcore

#

just in case

#

I dunno if the new one depends on that or not

elfin jasper
#

enemyrando shouldn't

real jacinth
#

didn't think so

#

but wasn't 100%

clever ginkgo
#

thanks i'll try

elfin jasper
#

If a dependency is missing, it should show "FAILED TO LOAD" in the top left, I think

real jacinth
#

try turning off QoL

#

I know they were saying there's some new incompatibilities or something

#

did you alt-tab while it was loading by chance?

clever ginkgo
#

no

#

thanks for helping guys

cinder swallow
#

Randomizer 2 wont work

elfin jasper
#

install seanprcore

plucky kestrel
#

just for future reference, the current version of Enemy Rando should never get stuck anymore, regardless of alt-tabbing or other mods

cinder swallow
#

how do I install seanprcore

plucky kestrel
#

but don't update rando 2 when it prompts you when you load it

cinder swallow
#

oh

#

do I need to uninstall it and do that

plucky kestrel
#

if you want 2.A, you need to get it from #randomizer, not the installer

#

so if you want that, you need reinstall it

#

2.A is the latest version

elfin jasper
#

It's in beta for a reason

#

If you're just looking to get started with randomizer, the one on the installer is perfectly fine

plucky kestrel
#

ok, fair enough

cinder swallow
#

got it

#

thanks

void laurel
#

Hey guys

#

I need a little bit of help with a project

sleek tiger
#

hm?

#

what kind of project?

void laurel
#

And i don't know here to ask kkkk

sleek tiger
#

modding the game?

#

or downloading and managing mods

void laurel
#

I don't know yet, i think it's downloading, because i don't know how to do it

#

For context, im from brazil, soo my english can be a little bit bad e.e

#

my problem is: i do youtube videos for the HK comunity here in Brazil, we very lack some content creators of this amazing game, and i wanna do videos with a really good quality

#

And i saw in a mossbag video, the fate of the pale king, to be exact, that he record some footage of the game like "zoomed out"

#

That's a mod?

glass meteor
#

debug mod but you press page down and f1

void laurel
#

And how do i install it?

sleek tiger
#

with this

#

it might ask for a path, so, go to Steam > Steamapps > common > Hollow Knight

void laurel
#

oh, okay

#

thanks!

sleek tiger
#

I'll be here if you need anything

harsh moth
#

hey, i need some help to get the player data tracker to work, can anyone help pls ? 😦

elfin jasper
#

What's your problem?

#

It's a mod for streaming, so the tracker only appears on the webpage for browser capture

harsh moth
#

that's the problem, nothing appears on the browser page, and in game, PlayerDataDump shows UNKNOWN

#

as if datas weren't hooked from my game

elfin jasper
#

no, that just means the creator didn't bother to set a version number

harsh moth
#

oh i see ^^'

elfin jasper
#

You have to open the game for anything to appear

harsh moth
#

its opened, i even tried picking up some items to see if it would update

buoyant plume
#

Did you install it from the mod installer?

elfin jasper
#

my screenshot missed

harsh moth
#

weksocket is in managed folder not in mods

#

is that the issue ?

buoyant plume
#

It should work from either folder

harsh moth
#

🤔

buoyant plume
#

what browser are you using?

harsh moth
#

firefox, i'll try downloading chrome

#

(thanks for your help btw 😃 )

buoyant plume
#

I've never tested with firefox, chrome should work

harsh moth
#

alright, ill tell you in a minute 😃

#

works fine with google chrome !! thank you bro 😃

buoyant plume
#

no problem

sorry for asking this since it's probably known, but I can't seem to get hollow knight to finish the bar on the loading screen when trying to load Randomizer 2 (with SeanPR core + Benchwarp from the installer). I can hear 2 notes of the title screen, then the game abruptly closes. Am I doing something wrong?

#

Thanks! hollowknice

hoary aspen

what do you mean by save states?

#

like in emulators?

novel bronze
#

how beat pale prince

untold elm
#

practice

#

a lot

#

and pogo

novel bronze
#

oof

#

i've been doing that for 2 days and i still haven't gotten to a part where he does new attacks

untold elm
#

yeah he's really hard

novel bronze
#

yes

tawny carbon
#

@novel bronze spell

untold elm
#

oh yeah, spell builds are good for him

#

ddark is really good for him it seems like

#

I havent gotten very far into the fight so I dont know much of his extra attacks

tawny carbon
#

shadde soul is p good too

#

you can double hit

untold elm
#

yeah but it doesnt give you a free pass for whatever attack he's doing

novel bronze
#

my charm build rn is mark of pride, lifeblood core, fragile heart, and fragile strength

#

i'll swap out strength for shaman stone

#

that did significantly better

#

thanks

tawny carbon
#

np

novel bronze
#

i still can't get him past phase 1 but atleast i dont die in like 20 seconds

untold elm
#

oh yeah, apparently steady body is really good for his final phase

novel bronze
#

oof

terse elm
#

what do the restrictions do in randomizer v2? all bosses, all skills, all charms

#

I checked them all to true and I just got city crest from false knight, is that just the random or am I doing something wrong?

untold elm
#

restrictions are what you need in order to enter temple of the black egg

#

so you made it so that you need to kill all bosses, get all skills, and get all charms

terse elm
#

oh ok

#

I watched xeph play a race yesterday, it had everything randomized, including rancid eggs and lantern, is that another randomizer?

real jacinth
#

Pins

#

Have to install it manually

terse elm
#

ohh, pins on that channel, I thought you meant it was a mod called pins 😃

#

so randomizer v2.a

untold elm
#

yes

terse elm
#

so it requires modding api, modinstaller does that right?

untold elm
#

yes

#

it also requires seanprcore which is on installer too

#

I think

terse elm
#

so randomizer v2 just randomizes charms and chests, not items or skills or anything?

untold elm
#

it randomizes skills and movement abilities and spells and stuff like that

terse elm
#

haha, I wonder what mod changes stuff like dirtmouth -> elderbug is a cool guy and hornet giving sass instead of WAT U R GHOST

real jacinth
#

rando

untold elm
#

yeah

terse elm
#

okay, I'll call this a baby seed lol, false knight had isma's, hornet had monarch, iselda's shop had dash and dreamnail in thorns

#

but anyway, wrong channel I guess

tawny carbon
#

monkaHmm

i have no idea where to find the backups that hollow knight stores

trim geode
#

Not sure if this is the right place to ask..... but I used the item randomizer, and the logic appears that if I have mothwing cloak and dash slash I can kill the elder baldurs. Can anyone tell me how this is done?

runic oriole
#

can you hit them with dash slash?

#

also, with mothwing you can go to fungal

#

where you can get more items

#

and possibly something to kill the baldurs

glass meteor
#

you just dash slash them

runic oriole
#

thought so

trim geode
#

hmmm.... maybe I'm just getting too close. Is it super precise? They seem to curl up by the time the nail hits them. I used the "helper" log which told me I was missing one location I had not checked other than the two guarded by the baldurs and I got isma's tear so I'm working that angle now. Thanks!

elfin jasper
#

it's not precise at all, start further away

versed needle
#

If you can hit them with longnail you can definitely hit them with dash slash

#

Don't think I ever even tested that, it just seems kinda obvious that it would work

trim geode
#

I was WAY too close. I used the one in the snail shaman area to practice.... once I realized how far away I should be, it was easy and I was able to get that baldur shell check as well. I also didn't realize you could kill them with longnail. Spells and minions are obvious, but this was brand new to me. The rando has really made me learn about new approaches to how to use the items/abilities.

hoary aspen
#

@versed needle sorry for the ping, but how did you edited the sprites in custom knight?

versed needle
hoary aspen
#

How did you also extracted sprites and such

versed needle
glass meteor
#

;assets

novel bronze
#
**Assets**

Assets can be found pinned here
You can get Asset Studio to get assets from the game files here
You can get UABE to directly edit assets here (but using a API mod is better)

hoary aspen
#

Thank you

#

How can I tell the actual name of the sprites?

#

like, some sprites were renamed in this

versed needle
#

There is no "actual name"

#

That's not how custom knight works

#

The names are arbitrary

hoary aspen
#

ah ok

#

How can I make it so it would replace other sprites other than what's already in custom knight then?

versed needle
#

Highly situational

hoary aspen
#

i guess it's impossible then.

hoary aspen
#

I don't know what do you mean by "highly situational"

#

I know what I want to do

crystal bay
#

depends on what you're trying to change

#

that's what it means

hoary aspen
#

I think I might be able to do this

hoary aspen
#

no wait what is all of this

#

i need to add sprites to custom knight from inside the source

hoary aspen
#

wth

#

how did you even do this

#

Where's the part where it replaces the one that's in the game

#

Am I that bad of a programmer

#

of a modder

#

wth

tawny carbon
#

what are you talking about

hoary aspen
#

I'm trying to mod custom knight

#

so I can edit more sprites than what it gives me

tawny carbon
#

ok

hoary aspen
#

help

crystal bay
#

have you considered looking at SpriteLoader.cs @hoary aspen

#

The coroutine's name is "SetHeroTex"

#

somewhat obvious

hoary aspen
#

I still have no idea what I'm looking at

crystal bay
#
private static IEnumerator SetHeroTex()
{
    while (!LoadComplete || HeroController.instance == null) //Waits until sprites are loaded and the knight exists
    {
        yield return null;
    }

    PullDefaultTextures(); //saves default sprites of the knight

    HeroController.instance.GetComponent<tk2dSprite>().GetCurrentSpriteDef().material.mainTexture = KnightTex; //Gets the knight's texture and sets it to KnightTex
    ...etc...
}
hoary aspen
#

yes

crystal bay
#

?

hoary aspen
#

I'm trying to figure it out

crystal bay
#

ok

hoary aspen
#

like how does it know the specific sprite and such

crystal bay
#

You mean where it gets "KnightTex" from?

hoary aspen
#

that's in public static

#

I'm trying to replace a particle

crystal bay
#

just the sprites of a particle or completely change the particle

hoary aspen
#

completely change the sprite of the particle to something else

crystal bay
#

what is it

hoary aspen
#

i just want to make it invisible

#

hold on

crystal bay
#

that's a particle??

hoary aspen
#

according to the google drive with all the sprites

#

particle / effect

crystal bay
#

what is this from/where is it used

hoary aspen
#

from fury of the fallen when turned on

#

the top one covers the screen and the bottom is "pulsing" from the knight

crystal bay
#

remove the vignette from the fury gameobject

#

you're just trying to remove sprites not replace

hoary aspen
#

I thought I would have to make the .png blank

crystal bay
#

nah that's harder

hoary aspen
#

i do that in assembly-csharp, yea?

crystal bay
#

a slight question I have, if you remove the visual effect of the charm (and since you've already made it so that the charm works no matter what your hp), wouldn't this be the same as just increase the player's base nail damage?

#

aren't you basically making a second unbreakable strength charm at this point?

hoary aspen
#

that's my intention in a way

#

and also you get this nice red effect when attacking

#

also it effects stuff like the womb charm, and would work with other mods that affect fury

crystal bay
#

ok

#

um wdym by doing it in assembly-csharp?

#

as in using dnspy to edit that?

untold elm
crystal bay
#

yea let's move there @hoary aspen

idle sinew
#

What do mag skips do

crystal bay
#

Mag skips would have you going to the thorns charm location without dash, double jump, or claw

idle sinew
#

Ok ty

quiet vortex
#

I dont even think that one is possible on current patch

#

the setting adds stupidly difficult skips into logic

#

it's already been removed on current version of rando

idle sinew
#

Ok

quiet vortex
#

just keep it off

untold elm
#

I wouldn't call it current version tbh

#

I would call it beta version since it's not on installer

quiet vortex
#

reee

#

it is the future

elfin jasper
#

It would be on the installer already

#

but I keep making minor changes to the randomizer which break everything

runic oriole
#

So it's your fault as usual

untold elm
#

blame homothety

#

why did I type a p

elfin jasper
#

I don't think there is any seanpr code left in the randomizer itself

#

It's been nuked too many times

#

Therefore, I am to blame beesive

untold elm
#

I blame the creators of randomizer 1

#

because they started it all

crystal bay
#

I blame team cherry

Is there any way to re-bind the f1 button to something else in debug mod?

#

Reason why I ask is because when I hide the Debug menu and then try to press f1, it just makes my screen darker

fn+fwhatever

autumn willow
#

oh, ok

versed needle
#

A lot of laptops are weird and don't actually do F key presses unless you hold the fn key

#

Because someone decided it was a good idea to hijack the F keys for volume/brightness/whatever

yeah, that's what my laptop does

ok, well thanks for the tip!

Yes, mods can be installed on a mac.
You can use the installer
To run the installer:

  1. Open the Terminal
  2. Type cd $(dirname
  3. Drag the exe onto the terminal.
  4. Type ) then hit Return/Enter
  5. Type mono --arch=32 (Note the space at the end)
  6. Drag the exe onto the terminal and then hit Return/Enter

If this fails with bash: mono: command not found then

  1. install mono here
  2. Open a new terminal window
  3. Type/paste in export PATH=/usr/local/bin:${PATH} and hit Return/Enter
  4. Repeat steps 2-6 above.

im getting 'error extracting mod installer.exe. invalid format

versed needle
#

Ah, this problem has occurred before

#

The problem is you aren't following the instructions

#

Try following the instructions

elder wave
#

Yeah thanks, trying the above now

crystal bay
#

Didn't 56 make a Mac version of the Modinstaller?

#

It's the first pin on here @elder wave

versed needle
#

Oh, I wasn't aware of that

#

Cool

#

The command should probably be updated then

crystal bay
#

yes

#

does Hal manage the command?

versed needle
#

Probably

elder wave
#

ah sorry didnt see that pin, literally made this account to ask this question so I dont quite know my way round

versed needle
#

That's fine

#

Nobody checks pins

elder wave
#

Think i've finally done it, thanks guys 😃

Hi everyone, I'm new here
I wanted to make a video for HK and I want to disable HUD, I heard it can be done via Debug Mod. Can anyone help me with where to find that and how to install it?
Thanks!

west bane
#

;i want to die

novel bronze
elder wave
#

Ok quick question - my controller isnt working after the mod installation?

west bane
#

happens, use some third party thing to bind keys to your controller and do it like htat

elder wave
#

im getting the same error trying to run the exe for that

versed needle
#

Macs can't natively run exes

#

The mac version of the installer is just a mono wrapper

#

Idk what program you're trying to use but mono or wine might work

elder wave
#

managed to install the third party key binder and my damn dash button lags like hell, kinda wish id never started this ahaha

#

thanks for the help tho lads 😃

glass meteor
#

if you ever want to revert back to normal you can just verify game integrity or hit the revert button on the installer

elder wave
#

Lol i tried that and i got another error

glass meteor
#

right click it in the steam list

#

#

verify game integrity

How i get save editor?

sleek tiger
#

pinned messages

#

isn't it there

west bane
#

it is

sleek tiger
slim isle
#

In the online save editor puts royal charm estate i put 2 and nothing happened

sleek tiger
#

it's packed with the (apparently?) outdated mod summaries

#

also Debug mod

#

lets you revert into it

#

you need charm state 3 or 4 I think

#

0 for empty, 1 and 2 for either half, 3 for full and 4 for Void Heart?

west bane
#

TIL

novel bronze
#

@west bane no i really can't

#

i've been grinding it out for 3 days and i can't even get pale prince to the phase with the dagger grid thing

west bane

only 3 days, pffff

sleek tiger

hey, Zal

west bane
#

grind it out

#

hi

Discord is a chat app, similar to programs such as Skype or TeamSpeak, or professional communications platforms like Slack. It’s geared specifically toward video game players, providing them with ways to find each other, coordinate play, and talk while playing. It supports video calls, voice chat, and text, allowing users to get in touch however they please.

fossil escarp
#

found out already lol

tawny carbon
#

lmaooo,

umbral wigeon
#

can i get some help

versed needle
#

no

glass meteor
#

no this channel is a lie and we all do nothing

umbral wigeon
#

gotcha

#

ok

#

so where can i go get help?

glass meteor
umbral wigeon
#

i have the installer, i watched the video you pinned but not much was shown

glass meteor
#

Does this mean you're on mac

umbral wigeon
#

unfortunately

glass meteor
#

my dude

real jacinth
#

Well at least you understand your condition

glass meteor
#

the first pin is a .app for mac

#

which removes the need to do anything in that video

umbral wigeon
#

i have the first pinned item downloaded

real jacinth
#

Open it. And run it

umbral wigeon
#

i verified it but the application wont open

glass meteor
#

Did it popup anything?

umbral wigeon
#

mono32

glass meteor
#

It downloads a few things

#

that means it is working

umbral wigeon
#

...

#

is swearing aloud

real jacinth
#

Fuck no

umbral wigeon
#

...

glass meteor
#

typically it is said aloud yes

umbral wigeon
#

well then, im a fucking idiot

glass meteor
#

If you click on the mono part it should be the installer

umbral wigeon
#

yeah its installed now

glass meteor
#

cool

umbral wigeon
#

so i just click instal and thats it, the gamed modded?

glass meteor
#

yeah

umbral wigeon
#

*games

#

ok thanks

#

how can i stop the game from crashing?

real jacinth
#

What patch is your game

#

And what are you installing

patent sapphire
#

Very simple question, I have a .dll file containing a mod. Were to I paste this for it to properly boot

#4 of benji's post in 📌

gaunt gorge
#

Pardon me, but is there a way to manually remove the Infinite Notches mod? I installed it with some other mods a couple months back, and the others were successfully removed but that one still works, even when there is no mod indicator on the top left of the main menu screen.

winged void
#

Disable mod in game and then uninstall it from the Modinstaller can be an option?

gaunt gorge
#

I can't access the Mods menu in-game. The selection arrow skips right over it.

winged void
#

Just hover the Mods menu with your mouse

#

And then click on it

gaunt gorge
#

I'll try that.

west bane
#

remove it from the mods folder in your steam save

gaunt gorge
winged void
#

That's because you don't have any mods on rn

gaunt gorge
#

Yes, but then why is the notch thing happening?

#

I uninstalled and reinstalled the game, reinstalled the mod installer and used it to remove every mod, manually deleted the mod folder, etc.
Not that it messes with my gameplay, but it's been getting on my nerves a bit.

winged void
#

Enable Infinite Notches from modinstaller
Go to MODS section in game and turn Infinite Notches from on to off
Go to Modinstaller and uninstall/disable Infinite Notches

sleek tiger
#

uh

#

so

#

Infinite Notches may or may not have edited your save

#

and I'm not sure if it has code to revert/if said code works

#

@gaunt gorge

#

so, you may or may not wanna go get your saves to look through them

#

for whatever reason pretty much all the charm data's stored there

novel bronze
#

There is a way to revert infinite notches if it gets stuck without editing your save because I've done it before

sleek tiger
#

including charm cost n things

gaunt gorge
#

I tried DJ Pichu's suggestion, did not work.
@sleek tiger Does it only apply to the save I've played with the mod, or does it affect all saves?
That is, if I have a second save with only 7 notches, will the mod be activated once I reach 11?
@novel bronze That sounds helpful, would you mind telling me how?

winged void
#

It doesn't affect ALL save files pretty sure
Just the save file you played when you had the mod on

sleek tiger
#

I dunno what it applies to, this depends on at what moment the mod loads and what it overrides

#

but it should be a single save

novel bronze
#

Pretty sure the way I fixed it was by doing what Pichu said

gaunt gorge
#

Ah.

winged void
#

Make sure the close the game after you disabled Infinite Notches in-game btw

gaunt gorge
#

I did that

winged void
#

Oh

sleek tiger
#

then manual save override, ya know where the saves are?

gaunt gorge
#

No, could you tell me?

winged void
#

;saves

#

Oh I forgot Zote bot died

gaunt gorge
winged void
#

Ye those are the save files

gaunt gorge
#

What should I do now?

winged void
#

It doesn't seem like there is an Infinite_Notches.json

sleek tiger
#

user1.dat is the first save

#

user2.dat is the 2nd

#

etc.

#

which save did you open with the mod?

gaunt gorge
#

(Should I delete the other mod json files just in case?)
Just the first one.

sleek tiger
#

nah, don't touch them

#

this should be the save editor

#

I think it turned the save file into a .json

#

open the .json file when you have it and find wherever the line with the charm notches you have on your save is

gaunt gorge
#

What do I open the .json files with?

sleek tiger
#

h

#

google online json reader

#

/editor

gaunt gorge
#

Okay, it doesn't work.
The file's download pages says I can save the file on PC, but I can't quite figure out how to do that.
(Sorry for my ignorance. Never touched this stuff before.)

sleek tiger
#

I guessed

#

any progress?

crimson zinc
#

Is there a list of what does each default mod from Mod Manager do?

west bane
crimson zinc
#

Sorry, I'm too dumb to see something so obviously placed. Thanks.

#

Elderbug God isn't in there. What's that mod?

crystal bay
crimson zinc
#

Great mod.

#

Is Lifebringer any good?

#

For a casual gameplay, I mean.

crystal bay
#

yea lightbringer is good

crimson zinc
#

for manually installing mods, do I just select the mod's zip file?

west bane
#

see benji's message in the 📌 of this channel

crimson zinc
trail flint
#

lightbringer

crimson zinc
#

Oh, not a fan.

crystal knot
#

ok

crimson zinc
#

yes

trail flint
#

but, thats literally the main point of the mod

#

gives you ranged attacks

crimson zinc
#

Ah, I just installed it for the "reworks charms, many other changes" part.

trail flint
#

well yeah reworks charm to apply it to your sword beams

crimson zinc
#

...oh.

gaunt gorge
#

@sleek tiger No, I might dig around a bit more once I return home, then give up. Thankfully it doesn't seem to affect any other saves, so I could live with that if need be.

tawny carbon
#

"Iselda's Thick Bug Butt"

crimson zinc
#

Don't question it tisowo

sleek tiger
#

Bonfire maybe

crimson zinc
#

Oh, I see.

trail flint
#

also light bringer

#

pretty sure the description explicitly says that it reduces your mask from 5 to 4

crystal bay
#

are they using lightbringer though?

tawny carbon
#

yes

#

no

#

yes

#

idk

crystal bay
#

cloak isn't white buddy

crimson zinc
#

No, I'm not using Lightbringer

#

It's still installed but deactivated.

#

So... it was Lightbringer.

#

Apparently deactivating the mod still leaves you with 4 masks of health.

#

Any way I can get the other one back?

glass meteor
#

save edit

crimson zinc
#

Fair, thanks.

#

Bonfire mod doesn't modify the "nailDamage" value from the save file, correct? Because that value doesn't seem to change after I upgraded my damage with the mod.

glass meteor
#

idts

#

I think it's just HitInstance hook

crimson zinc
#

What does the "Extra masks" stat refer to? Because it clearly doesn't add extra health.

crystal bay
#

you do have 2 extra masks though

crimson zinc
#

They're from Fragile Heart.

crystal bay
#

does it go to 0 when you take it off

crimson zinc
#

No, it goes back to 5.

crystal bay
#

I meant extra mask

crimson zinc
#

How am I supposed to "take it off".

elfin jasper
#

what is the number without the charm?

#

that is the question

crimson zinc
#

5

elfin jasper
#

The other number

#

Extra Masks

#

The one you're asking about

crimson zinc
#

Still 2.

crystal bay
#

ok

#

idk what it does then

elfin jasper
#

unfortunate

crimson zinc
crystal bay
#

@runic oriole

#

have you checked the readme?

crimson zinc
#

nop.

elfin jasper
#

Don't ping Gradow, this will be traumatizing sadgrub

crystal bay
#

yea it doesn't talk about it

crimson zinc
#

Upgraded to 3 extra masks, still no extra mask dunq

glass meteor
crimson zinc
#

(what)

glass meteor
#

(level up resilience)

runic oriole
#

I don't remember my own code

#

let me see...

crimson zinc
runic oriole
#
public int ExtraMasks(int totalRes) => (int)Math.Round(-0.4 + 2.6 * Math.Log((double)totalRes));```
#

so it's not my fault

#

gotcha

#

it's the api's fault

west bane
#

it's your fault

runic oriole
#

my hook is fine, I think

crimson zinc
#

i'll take the blame here

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

(for no reason)

glass meteor
runic oriole
#

56

glass meteor
#

gradow

runic oriole
#

y

glass meteor
#

what

runic oriole
#

the icon

glass meteor
#

what

runic oriole
#

it's still zote

glass meteor
#

yes

#

the .app for mac is omegamaggotprime

runic oriole
#

oh

#

nice

glass meteor
#

i can change this one too if you'd like

runic oriole
#

we can discuss this change

#

oh

#

I haven't read the code, but

glass meteor
#

is it log 10 or log e

runic oriole
#

uhhh

#

idk

west bane
#

10

runic oriole
#

don't remember

glass meteor
#

wow zaliant you lied to me

runic oriole
#

so, how did you make the .app

west bane
#

i had a 50/50 i tried

glass meteor
#

.app is just a shitty folder

#
  • icon + executable
#

i made the executable a bash script which downloads the installer and/or mono

#

and runs it

runic oriole
#

ic

glass meteor
#

question mark

runic oriole
glass meteor
#

why are you wtfing

runic oriole
#

why SwappedArgs

glass meteor
#

easier to patch

runic oriole
#

also

#

the first line

#

overrides the mod

glass meteor
#

yes

runic oriole
#

smh

glass meteor
#

i guess the api should remove that

runic oriole
#

I mean, yeah

#

otherwise it makes the hook absolutely useless

crimson zinc
#

(so uhh should I reinstall the mod manually?)

runic oriole
#

no

#

the api doesn't let the mod work

west bane
#

yeah sure blame the api elderC

glass meteor
#

you can il hook it

#

😤

runic oriole
#

I don't know how to il

#

I stopped modding waaaay before that

glass meteor
#

i guess i'll fix it in the api

runic oriole
#

On. hooks also won't work

#

because not calling orig is a big nono

crimson zinc
#

Well uhh.
@ me if this is fixed? :D

tiny blade
#

uninstall the api

sleek tiger
crimson zinc
#

Wait, is uninstalling the API a solution for my problem as well?

elfin jasper
#

lol no

crimson zinc
#

darn

Hi, im experiencing a problem with the randomizer mod. the mods it requires load fine, but when i open the game with the randomizer mod it shows a load screen, plays some music, and crashes. the log says hollow_knight.exe caused an access violation. can someone help?

real jacinth
#

Send screenshots pls

hearty glade
#

of the log?

real jacinth
#

Of everything

#

File location, game screens, send the log file

#

Installer screen

#

Etc etc

hearty glade
#

ok, gimme a minute

glass meteor
#

any output log

hearty glade
#

yes, hold on

#

im not sure what else you need to help but i can get anything else, thanks in advance

real jacinth
#

which randomizer2 is that

glass meteor
#

if you disable all the mods does it work

real jacinth
#

^ also that

hearty glade
#

im using the Mod Manager v.8.5.2 to download mods. disabling just the randomizer mod makes it work fine

#

disabling all the mods also works

tawny carbon
#

;i

real jacinth
#

send a screenshot of rando2 turned off

#

of the game title screen

hearty glade
glass meteor
#

Are you offline on steam

hearty glade
#

yea. should i not be for this to work?

glass meteor
#

try going invisible

#

it was complaining about a steam dll

hearty glade
#

i have my overlaw off as well

#

overlay

glass meteor
#

idk it's something steam related

hearty glade
#

going online and invisible crashed the game in the same way

real jacinth
#

Couldn't find a Hero, make sure one exists in the scene.

(Filename: C:\buildslave\unity\build\artifacts/generated/common/runtime/DebugBindings.gen.cpp Line: 51)

#

there's a ton of this

hearty glade
#

I unfortunately have no idea what this means

#

not all that familiar with unity

glass meteor
#

That's normal

#

Normal to the extent where QoL literally removes it from the logs because it's just spam

real jacinth
#

yeah. shit logging tbh

#

what are your resolution settings

hearty glade
#

1600 x 900 @ 60hz in windowed mode

real jacinth
#

try a different resolution

glass meteor
#

Can I see your managed folder

hearty glade
#

is there a specific file youre looking for?

umbral wigeon
#

is there a mod to stop me from crashing?

real jacinth
#

why are you crashing

umbral wigeon
#

no idea

#

ill tell you the mods i have

#

if that helps

real jacinth
#

well I have no info

#

so literally any would be helpful

umbral wigeon
#

damn

#

i have lightbringer

#

infinite notches

#

and hpbar

#

and blackmoth

real jacinth
#

take off hpbar

umbral wigeon
#

ok got it

real jacinth
#

install enemyhpbar

umbral wigeon
#

thats what i have

real jacinth
#

send screenshots

tawny carbon
#

any

real jacinth
#

like dude above

umbral wigeon
#

ok

tawny carbon
#

crush report

hearty glade
#

yay im an example

real jacinth
#

lightbringer and blackmoth on at the same time could also be causing issues.

#

they're not meant to be run together

umbral wigeon
#

oh ok

#

ill remove black moth

#

also dont know how to find mod folder

#

so ill uninstall blackmoth and hpbar

real jacinth
#

?

#

use the installer

umbral wigeon
#

i am

#

also mac is trash for gaming so also prob a reason

real jacinth
#

depends on how old it is

#

especially cuz enemyhpbar is resource intensive

umbral wigeon
#

is redwing able to run with lightbringer?

real jacinth
#

no

covert oasis
#

probably not

real jacinth
#

redwing is a companion mod to blackmoth

umbral wigeon
#

oh damn

covert oasis
#

iirc redwing can be played standalone

real jacinth
#

it can

#

but it was meant to be played with blackmoth

covert oasis
#

that might be why whenever i play it it's busted balance-wise

umbral wigeon
#

so i have bonfire and lightbringer

real jacinth
#

it was intended to be busted balance-wise

#

why do you keep adding mods

#

just play lightbringer alone

umbral wigeon
#

i had bonfire from the start but on

#

*ok

real jacinth
#

stop making a shit stew of mods

#

less=more

umbral wigeon
#

im just testing shit out

#

but got it

real jacinth
#

does your game launch if you disable everything

#

if so, build up slowly from there

#

if not, verify your game file integrity

hearty glade
#

will there be an update on my situation soon? if not, can someone @ me when there is so i dont miss it?

real jacinth
#

did you try changing resolutions

#

and try verifying your game files and reinstalling mods

#

just in case something is corrupted

hearty glade
#

i did, i went lower to no avail. lowest i could go. i also tried turning my video settings all the way down

#

will do

#

still encountering the issue, but ran into a replicatable related issue. when i load the game without randomizer v2 but with the modding api and/or any additional mods, it crashes in the same way without a prompt

#

let me do it again and send the output log

#

to specify, the game crashes when i select quit to menu while sitting on the bench in godhome

runic oriole
#

@hearty glade unplug controller, launch game, wait till it loads, plug controller

#

That's the same issues I have

#

Loading something in the menu crashes the game if you have controller plugged in

glass meteor
#

Wtf

runic oriole
#

But it's not loaded when first loading the title screen

#

But randobeta loads the title twice at the same time

#

So it crashes

hearty glade
#

this is the crackshackiest solution ive ever encountered

glass meteor
#

what controller

runic oriole
#

Generic

hearty glade
#

the fact that it worked is somehow less satisfying than having never known

glass meteor
#

because I leave mine plugged in

hearty glade
#

its a 360 controller

runic oriole
#

But is it generic

hearty glade
#

yea

runic oriole
#

See

glass meteor
#

fucking incontrol

runic oriole
#

Sean explained it to me why once

#

But I can't be bothered to listen to what Sean says

glass meteor
hearty glade
#

lol, many thanks friend

runic oriole
#

np

glass meteor
#

I could try and fix it I guess

When I enable it my map doesnt change

Hm

#

Perhaps you can verify integrity game files?

real jacinth

Randomapmod just puts pins on your map in combination with rando2

#

Tells you what you can reach

#

And for nail dmg, you just press the - button. Then debug decreases dmg

Mentioned in #archived-modding-development, playing randomizer v2.b and having trouble finding next movement item, only dash in greenpath. Looking at helper log, I see "grubberfly's elegy" and "king's idol - grubs", and "*charm notch - colosseum" Everything else I've gotten. Grubdaddy's sparks didn't at least show any movement powers, I do have one more grub I can save, but I have absolutely no idea how I'm supposed to get to the Colosseum from Dirtmouth with just dash.

#

should I post spoiler log too?

elfin jasper
#

nah, your seed is just broken

#

I blame @quiet vortex

the colosseum logic is wrong

I blame homothety for being lazy

also don't add wings colo in easy logic just as a side note

I won't

but I will add claw or wings for colo 1

that seems somewhat important
