night pollen
#

not saves

#

look

#

@west bane

#

nothing but levels resources and sharedassets

west bane
#

go to the app -> contents -> resources -> data -> managed

night pollen
#

i cant

#

i cant go to managed

#

thats not one of them

west bane
#

this does not explain why you cannot click on the managed folder

night pollen
#

there is nothing in there

#

let me reset my pc

west bane
#

there is no way the folder is empty otherwise you wouldn't be able to run the game

night pollen
#

so i take

#

and replace it with

west bane
#

this is not in the directions no

night pollen
#

what file!?!?!?!

#

those are the only csharp ones

west bane
#

replace assembly csharp with the modding API one from the modding gdrive

the same assembly-csharp in the managed folder

night pollen
#

wtf does that mean

#

whats the csharp?

#

and modding api from modding gdrive

west bane
#

get the modding api from the google drive

#

?mods

night pollen
west bane
#

ZaliantToday at 3:54 AM
get the modding api from the google drive

upbeat sail
#

scroll to the one called the modding api. its gonna be the title of the mod so as to let you find it. creators of the mods are put before its name. think its near the bottom

hard pasture
#

yo

night pollen
#

yo

hard pasture
#

how do I uninstall the mod loader

#

I forgot

#

do I just verify game files ?

#

I looked

#

not very hard to be honest tho its later

night pollen
#

armando its not in tere

#

there

west bane
#

you can hover over the names to display the full name

hard pasture
#

geez you guys made me sift through and actually read the pins

#

a simple "yes" would have saved me the trouble

rare rivet
#

Verifying game files removes mods yeah

night pollen
#

still not there

west bane
#

its there

hard pasture
#

see thanks

night pollen
#

cant find it

#

why does mac have to be so hard ๐Ÿ˜ 

upbeat sail
#

scroll all the way down, take a screenshot

upbeat sail
#

the first screenshot

#

see the top right file?

night pollen
#

more saves?

west bane
#

you just didnt wanna hover over to read it

night pollen
#

i did

#

i think im just that mental

#

so

upbeat sail
#

well in any case, thats the modding api

night pollen
#

what do i do with that

west bane
#

bruh

night pollen
#

UGHHH

west bane
#

download it

upbeat sail
#

hold on

upbeat sail
#

which patch is he going for?

#

current?

west bane
#

yes

night pollen
#

yeah

upbeat sail
#

1.4.3.2 for mac is what you're looking for then

west bane
#

its packaged under universal or linuxmac, universal should be fine

night pollen
#

that one

west bane
#

and if it's not we blame 56

night pollen
#

?

west bane
#

well that says unstable, so no

night pollen
#

lol

#

oops

#

that one?

west bane
#

yes

night pollen
#

do i download this

night pollen
#

thats a nice way to say im retarded

west bane
#

unzip it

night pollen
#

ok

#

i did

west bane
#

now go to your managed folder

night pollen
#

ok

west bane
#

now we're going to open up the folder you just unzipped, take the assembly csharps dll and xml in that unzipped folder, and drag them into the managed folder, itll probably ask if you wanna overwrite them, yes

#

and then make a blank folder in your managed folder called "Mods"

night pollen
#

ok

#

is that it?

west bane
#

that's it for modding API, now you need to go back to the google drive, get the latest modcommon, and unzip that, and stick the modcommon.dll in your newly made Mods folder

night pollen
#

IT WORKED

#

OMG THANK ALL OF YOU GUYS

west bane
#

and then any mods you do want will also go there

#

don't do that elderC

night pollen
#

:3

west bane
#

now in case you lose where to acquire new mods, you can either get the drive from the command "?mods" or by looking for the link in #archived-modding-development

night pollen
#

beesive press f to pay repect

#

?mods

night pollen
#

what ones should i get?

#

whats the most op one

west bane
#

click on mod summaries and read up on what every mod does and decide from there

night pollen
#

what does bonfire do?

#

nvm

#

ok

#

now how do you get them to work???

#

.....

#

they wont work in the file

#

top right

#

i have two

#

but dont work

west bane
#

screenshot your title screen

night pollen
west bane
#

you dragged the modding api files we downloaded into the managed folder? both the dll and the xml?

night pollen
#

yes

#

wanna see

#

the two top right

#

do i take out the other csharp?

west bane
#

no

night pollen
#

west bane
night pollen
#

?mods

night pollen
#

@west bane still does not work

west bane
#

night pollen
#

;---------------------;

It physically hurt me to read this

#

bro it was 3am I was only up to eat some cereal

runic oriole
#

Not u

#

Them

upbeat sail
#

Maybe they didn't unzip the files once they downloaded them?

#

Could explain why the right names are in the right places but doesnt do anything

copper orbit
#

Moding the game in switch is not possible right? :P

runic oriole
#

possible, yes

#

but you'd have to do it yourself

#

i.e. the tools in here won't help you

real jacinth
#

yeah, and the mods we've made won't help either

#

but I resent that, gradow. I'm not a tool

runic oriole
#

I was talking about myself and 56

#

but feel free to include yourself in that list

stuck cipher
#

Hey I'm pretty new to this dicord server and to modding, but I'm trying to get hollow point to work, but it's not really working with me. Can anybody help me how to do it?

real jacinth
#

?i

proud quailBOT
novel bronze
#

I think the radiance.host website should display the download link more prominently.

runic oriole
#

it's not meant for that tho

#

it's angle's domain

#

and he's kindly hosting the installer for us

real jacinth
#

You just.... Click the link above and it downloads it

#

There's no need to even go to the radiance site

fast sundial
#

I've been trying to download the mod installer and when I open it it says "couldn't locate hollow knight installation folder" and I don't know how to find it

real jacinth
#

well where's your game

#

you get it from steam?

fast sundial
#

yes

real jacinth
#

then it's probably in one of the default steam install locations

#

so say "yes" when starting the installer when it asks the two probable locations

#

depending on what disk drive you put it on

fast sundial
#

it prompts me to select hollow knight instillation path

real jacinth
#

you can also right click the game in steam

#

and in properties, browse to game file location

fast sundial
#

that worked, thank you!

dim fox
#

Any help with finding the solution to this?

#

game opens but doesn't load the mod

real jacinth
#

what dll did you get

dim fox
#

the one from mod manager

real jacinth
#

so you tried to use a current patch mod on a downpatched game

#

yeah, don't do that

dim fox
#

*brain realizes *

#

woops

real jacinth
#

has the debug version you're looking for

#

that or the google drive

dim fox
#

alright it worked

#

thanks i don't think i would have figured it out in the next 30 minutes

night pollen

REEEEEE

novel bronze
#

Can you not use mods on Linux?

real jacinth
#

you can

novel bronze
#

Hmm. I must not have copied my stuff right.

real jacinth
#

or got it from the wrong place

novel bronze
#

Yeah. Shouldn't be too hard to fix. I probably found the wrong dir in Linux.

real jacinth
#

you got your mods from this discord right?

novel bronze
#

No, copied from my Windows install.

real jacinth
#

that may be your issue

#

the API is different for linux in particular

#

?mods

real jacinth
#

get the linuxmac build of the api from the drive

novel bronze
#

Thanks!

fast sundial
#

I'm trying to do a run with both item randomizer and enemy randomizer. My item randomizer is working but enemy randomizer is not.

#

There's also a weird thing where when I go to the enemy randomizer options, the menu stays there when I click "back", does that have something to do with it?

real jacinth
#

Did you click the load button

#

On the title screen

#

And that's a known bug with the enemy randomizer menu. Change your settings, then quit out and load the game again to fix it and don't go back into the menu

fast sundial
#

ahh thank you!

narrow jewel
#

Okay so im doing the randomizer and items that need to be purchased with geo isnt working like i have enough geo but it just exits the purchasing screen

wind crag
#

with the bonfire mod, I have leveled Resilience so that it says I have "Extra Masks: 4", however I do not have any additional masks and I'm not sure if the mod is bugged or if the masks it refers to are something other than your health

ashen quartz
#

As i can't open the read me text, i would like to know if enable the randomizer will affect my currents save, like disable success and random the items in this run too

novel bronze
#

It will, if you select your current save when starting the game

#

don't know if it actually disables achievements, maybe someone can confirm

ashen quartz
#

Okay, ty, and when i disable the mod there is no risk i guess ?

novel bronze
#

No risk :)

#

The enabled mods show up in the main menu

ashen quartz
#

Thank you for your answers, thats more clear now

runic oriole
#

@wind crag when did you install the mod

#

that should be fixed in the current ver

wind crag
#

i have version 1.2.0.2

runic oriole
#

when did you install it

#

I don't think we even care about the ver number anymore

wind crag
#

gotcha, it was a 2 or 3 months ago, around early december

runic oriole
#

oh yeah

#

we fixed it this week so

#

just relaunch the installer

wind crag
#

roger

#

that shouldn't pose any save file issues to update it?

runic oriole
#

shouldn't

#

in theory

wind crag
real jacinth
#

@ashen quartz mods do not touch saves unless you open them in game. regardless, if you're worried about your saves, we always recommend backing them up before using mods. Achievements are also untouched by mods

how do i back up my save?

I'm trying to play the enemy randomizer. If I have chaos mode on, or neither chaos nor room mode on, I try to load it and it gets stuck at 88% and then crashes. If I try to play with just room mode, it loads but when I launch a new file the screen is locked in a place where I see the geo deposit left of the starting area, and I can't move or anything. Any suggestions?

real jacinth
#

use debug mod noclip function to get out of the ground

fast sundial
#

how do I activate it if the game won't let me open the menu

real jacinth
#

debug mod doesn't use the menu

#

it's clickable when you pause in game

fast sundial
#

that's what I mean the game won't let me pause

#

it's not completely frozen because the credits in the bottom right appear and my health and soul meters appear

#

but I can't open the pause menu

real jacinth
#

just start a new save with the mod disabled, get to dirtmouth bench, then enable it again

#

if the issue is the starting drop, that should be a way around it

fast sundial
#

why does noclip make me super fast and unable to jump?

real jacinth
#

because that's what it does

fast sundial
#

oops sorry haha

#

it's still getting stuck at 88% when I try to load the randomizer

real jacinth
#

you got it from here right?

#

how much RAM memory does your computer have

runic oriole
#

is the game installed in your HDD disk

real jacinth
#

how much cash did you take from the ATM machine

runic oriole
#

I think I've heard people say that one mick

real jacinth
#

I picture an ATM machine analogous to a vending machine that sells vending machines

runic oriole
#

I'd buy one

#

but does it sell vending machine-selling vending machines?

real jacinth
slow mason
#

Uh, guys, does the enemy randomizer randomize pre-made save files?

#

Because I think I just dicked my main save

real jacinth
#

it randomizes enemies at runtime, so yes. it will work on existing saves

slow mason
#

F u c k

real jacinth
#

just disable the mod

#

it doesn't touch your save

slow mason
#

Disabling it un-randomizes?

#

Good

real jacinth

"it randomizes enemies at runtime"

runic oriole
#

your saves are the files user1.dat up to user4.dat

#

if you mean back up the game, there's no need to

#

if you own it on either GOG or steam, you can just redownload it if something goes wrong

neon yew
#

well i bought the game insteam but two times the files were corrupted and deleted everything :C

runic oriole
#

it's fine

#

if your files ever corrupt, just do the following:

#

go on steam, right click on the game, click Properties, click Local Files, click Verify Integrity of Game Files

#

that'll make steam check your files and if it finds any files are missing/corrupted it'll redownload them

neon yew
#

thanks, that help me a lot

#

Hiya

#

I tried installing debug mode today, but it makes my main menu disappear

#

I have background and game title along with music, but no list of options to choose from

#

API works fine (I think), when I run game without modfile but just with API everything is normal (except API version being displayed in the corner)

#

I don't know what's the problem with it, maybe it's outdated, but my source had no fresher version of debug in particular while all other mods had 1.4.3.2 so I just assumed it didn't need to be updated

runic oriole
#

Are you using the installer

novel bronze
#

No

runic oriole
#

It's the official method of getting mods

#

?i

#

Alright

#

How does this work?

runic oriole
#

Just

#

Click install in the mods you wish to install

alpine mirage
#

How do i install the hollow point mod?

novel bronze
#

Alright, thanks

runic oriole
#

@alpine mirage check the pins in modding-dev

#

And use the option to manually install mods from the installer to install that mod

alpine mirage
#

thing is i don't see it

runic oriole
#

Did you check the pins like I told you to

#

And no, why would it be that?

alpine mirage
runic oriole
#

Yes

#

Download it

#

Then click the "manually install mods" option in the installer

#

And select that file

alpine mirage
#

I did

runic oriole
#

That's it

alpine mirage
#

Ah sorry for wasting your time

#

the installer didn't download correctly

#

now it's good

runic oriole
#

it's fine, don't sweat it

alpine mirage
#

Stupid question but i don't get the gun

real jacinth

it's a gun

what's not to get

yes, just now.

real jacinth

do you have ono installed?

jovial flume

mono?

yes

real jacinth

yeah

#

and the installer is not in your downloads folder

jovial flume
#

its in the directory of the game

real jacinth
#

the exe is in the app. so that error doesn't make sense

jovial flume
#

just a sec, gonna see if mono is corrupt or something

#

It worked, turns out the installer can't run in the game directory for some reason.

#

sorry for bothering

granite spindle
#

i need help with customknight (i use a mac)

covert oasis
#

@granite spindle what exactly do you need help with

granite spindle
#

i need help getting the files to work

covert oasis
#

so you have the mod itself installed already? you just need help installing skins

granite spindle
#

yea

covert oasis
#

go to hollow_knight_Data > managed > mods > CustomKnight and the skins will be there

#

there's a google drive with all the skins somewhere

granite spindle
#

where is that?

covert oasis
#

right click hollow knight in steam, go to properties, go to the local files tab, and click "browse local files"

granite spindle
#

yea

covert oasis
#

then you'll see "hollow_knight_Data"

#

go into that folder

#

then go into managed

#

then go into mods

#

then you'll see the customknight folder

granite spindle
#

i dont see "hollow_knight_data"

#

i only see "hollow_knight"

umbral sky
#

just a quick question, with hollowpoint can you use the gun right away or do you need to unlock something first?

versed needle
#

Right away

sour dagger
#

do you need to equip a charm for it?

versed needle
#

Press focus to swap to it

sour dagger
#

it's not working

#

I have custom knight, enemy hp bar and item randomizer on other then hollowpoint

versed needle
#

Does it show as installed on the menu?

sour dagger
#

yes

versed needle
#

Dunno then

real jacinth
#

screenshots pls

#

title screen and your mods folder

real jacinth
#

and you're starting a new save right?

sour dagger
#

yes

real jacinth
#

have you tried it without some of the other mods

#

like randomizer

sour dagger
#

no

real jacinth
#

try that. turn off randomizer

#

and see if it works then

sour dagger
#

it works now

#

shame it doesn't work with randomizer

mental prairie
#

This morning I was playing around with some mods from the installer.

#

I started with debug and custom knight

#

When I tried randomizer, everything broke

#

I disabled randomizer

#

Still didn't work

#

I disabled everything

#

Still didn't work

#

Basically what's happening is that when I have mods activated it doesn't say "modding api" in the top corner

#

And even if I don't have any activated

#

When I click play the 4 save files all say "loading"

#

I don't know what to do

#

Anyone have any idea what's going on

#

And as of right now it won't even open

glass meteor
#

verify game integrity

mental prairie
#

And how do I do that?

glass meteor
#

Where do you own the game?

mental prairie
#

Steam

#

On my PC

#

Windows 10

glass meteor
#

Right click the game in the list in steam

#

click properties

#

under general there's a button which says "Verify game integrity"

mental prairie
#

Ok thanks

#

It seems to be working now

#

Thank you so much

glass meteor
#

np

mental prairie
#

Neverymind

#

I just reloaded it and the same thing happened

glass meteor
mental prairie
#

I'm verifying integrity again to see if maybe it works once

#

I think it worked

#

I think it worked

#

'm just gonna double check

wary owl
#

How exactly do I do this on mac? I downloaded the installer but whenever I run it it just closes itself in 5 seconds

real jacinth
#

Take it out of your downloads folder

trim nest
#

@long cloak just ask these guys if ya need help with modding

long cloak
#

thank you

wary owl
#

I got API open and I downloaded randomizer

#

every time I start a run, the game crashes after clicking start

real jacinth
#

You mean the installer

#

?

wary owl
#

yeah

#

but in game it keeps crashing

real jacinth
#

And you need Seanprcore too

wary owl
#

that automatically downloaded with the randomizer i believe

#

it showed up as one of the downloads

real jacinth
#

And what do you mean start

#

Like launching the game

#

Or trying to start a new save

wary owl
#

no, whenever I try to generate a new save

real jacinth
#

Send some screenshots

wary owl
#

maybe my device is too slow

real jacinth
#

Title screen and the installer

wary owl
#

sure I will

#

does Seanprcore show up in the top left or no?

glass meteor
#

no

wary owl
#

because the other mods show up in the top left on the menu, but Seanprcore does not

#

ok

#

what the hell is the problem with the mac installing interface, scrolling is slow and awful

real jacinth
#

Because it's a program built for windows

#

Mac doesn't like it

wary owl
#

different question: is the RandoMap mod broken atm? It wasn't working on my other (windows) computer

real jacinth
#

It only works with rando 2

#

It just puts pins on your map for what you can reach in the logic currently

wary owl
#

oh ok that makes sense

#

I think I will just try Rando 2 with that instead if this keeps not working and come back here if I really care

real jacinth
#

Rando 3 has helper logs that are generated that do the same thing

wary owl
#

alright so let me explain exactly what happens. I start up hollow knight, click on an empty save file, do my customization of rand 3, which includes generating a random map. I click start, and the game freezes for a little while on that screen, before moving on and clearing the screen of all the menu stuff, as if I am transitioning into the run. Then, the game closes unexpectedly.

#

I have all required mods installed and nothing else

real jacinth
#

Cool. Send the screenshots

real jacinth
#

Can you open other saves that already exist?

wary owl
#

I'll try

#

no

#

I just reinstalled the game before doing this so I would think its not a game issue

real jacinth
#

Did you try playing it before putting the mods on?

#

After you installed it

wary owl
#

I don't remember

real jacinth
#

Might be worth trying just to be sure

wary owl
#

Let me verify integrity of game files and redo this

real jacinth
#

We'll go from there. If it runs vanilla and keeps crashing with the mods, we might have to change out your api

wary owl
#

It ran with no mods enabled and just modcommon

#

let me try with only the bench warp mod

#

still works

#

and with randomizer, it breaks again

#

I'm just going to call it a mac issue and not waste anyones time unless you have an easy thing to try

real jacinth
#

?mods

#

Really bot

#

?i

#

Grab the linuxmac API from here

#

And put it in your game files

#

Should replace the assembly_csharp.dll in your games Managed folder

wary owl
#

alright I tried that, I give up for now

#

still doesn't want to function

real jacinth
#

Weird

old fog
#

where would I get a Enemy Randomizer mod? or does one exist? cause id love one if possible

wary owl
#

@old fog you should be able to find it on the installer, do you have the installer downloaded?

old fog
#

the mod Installed? yeah

wary owl
#

just scroll through the installer, I'm fairly sure the enemy randomizer is there

old fog
#

what mod is it then? cause ive looked through most of them and none of them seem to be that

wary owl
#

let me look through rl quick

old fog
#

theres like, map and item randomizers but not enemy

wary owl
#

oh the issue is its called EnemyRandomizer, so you wont find it with the other Randomizers bc it doesnt start with an "r"

old fog
#

oh im just blind i guess, thanks lmao

wary owl
balmy heron
#

When I try to load the game, it keeps crashing after the loading bar fully loads ;-;

#

Not sure what to do at this point, tried reinstalling the ModInstaller from scratch multiple times and not sure what else to do

versed needle
#

Unplug your controller until you get to the menu

dim fox
#

after saving a savestate i load and invincibility turns on automatically and i don't know how to stop it

#

anyone knows what to do?

stone mist
#

what mods do you have

dim fox
#

only the modcommon and debug

#

both for the right patch

stone mist
#

hmm.
can you turn off the invincibility?

dim fox
#

yeah

#

but i need to do it manually every time

stone mist
#

is there a chance you bound invincibility to a key like escape

dim fox
#

okay i found out why

#

if you make a savestate before entering a different room and then loading it turns it on

#

when you go between room invincibility activates and deactivates so maybe thats why

#

so to fix it i need to go to a different room and it turns off

#

but the problem is that when i load the save state in the same room and load it still have invincibility so its very annoying

#

is there a setting for this or what exactly am i supposed to do cause im lost

stone mist
#

that has never happened for me

dim fox
#

maybe redownload the mods? feels like it wouldn't help but i can try

stone mist
#

try that, i'm not sure what else you could d

dim fox
#

redownloaded the mods and it still happens

dim fox
#

still need help with that

molten notch
#

how do i default my nail damage with debug mod?

#

nvm, i can set it back to 21 by mashing

old fog
#

so, none of the mods are loading and im not really sure why, they are all installed in the Mods folder, but none of them are loading

#

ive tried reinstalling ModInstaller, reinstalling Hk, reinstalling mods, restarting my pc

#

idk why it just doesnt want to load the mods

dim fox
#

are they disabled? there should be a disabled folder to see which mods are disabled or not

old fog
#

thats how they installed

dim fox
#

is it for the right patch of hollow knight?

old fog
#

It was also working before but it just stopped recently

dim fox
#

huh that's weird

real jacinth
#

Sound like you're missing the api

old fog
#

how would I fix that, i dont know much about modding hk

#

hello?

novel bronze
#

run ModInstaller.exe ?

#

steam must have updated hollow knight and unpatched the game

trim nest
#

i installed a mod called elderbug god
does anyone know what it does

old fog
#

im on GOG, but ive tried deleting and downloading the installer so

#

nothing helped

#

im trying to reinstall the game again

#

@real jacinth how would I fix that api issue?

novel bronze
#

after running the ModInstaller, "Assembly-CSharp.dll" should be different from the original one

runic oriole
#

@old fog what happens when you run the installer

novel bronze
#

(in the folder above the "Mods" folder)

old fog
#

nothing, it just opens

runic oriole
#

Show me a screenshot of your title screen

old fog
#

ok in a min, im reinstalling the game

runic oriole
#

Ok

#

Be sure to open the installer afterwards

old fog
#

yep

#

k it installed the API this time, ig reinstalling it that time fixed it, idk, thanks for the support though!

stone mist
#

Debug mod seems to be acting up.
Every time there is another boss in a pantheon i get invincibility. Not when entering another room, just another pantheon boss.

#

Hello I'm using bonfire and Blackmoth, I thought bonfire mod makes enemy stronger when my level up, but bonfire just makes my power up(extra masks works fine) without the enemy's health change. Is it normal ?

real jacinth
#

the enemies are getting stronger, but so are you

#

if you level up the right attributes, you will greatly outscale the enemy scaling

runic oriole
#

Actually I think I might have pushed the version of the mod without HP scaling

#

Oh well

real jacinth
#

lol

runic oriole
#

Not like it matters

lucid creek
#

I downloaded Hollow Point. How do I use things like Grenade?

#

runic oriole
#

Kinda, yeah

#

I still can't get spells to work. Guess I'm just gonna have to do without them

anyone?

runic oriole
#

are you using any mods?

tacit badge
#

No

if it's a bluescreen, it must be your drivers, that or your PC is dying

runic oriole
#

also, I'm sorry but this is the support channel for using mods

#

since this is non-mod related issue, this doesn't fit within this channel

tacit badge
#

Yes, but it's also a software related channel

#

help channel is more of a gameplay help

#

People who make mods know more about problems with game

runic oriole
#

I've never seen the game bsod while entering black egg temple, so I can't help you there

after the computer restarts, you can try posting your outputlog here so we can take a look at it

Hello. When I load Enemy Randomizer, game freezes at 88%, anyone know why this is?

glass meteor
#

because enemy rando is enemy rando

runic oriole

it just happens noah

if you're using multiple mods at the same time, might be worth trying using only enemy rando

if that still happens... That's it

Hey guys, so I'm trying to use the Enemy Randomizer mod from the mod installer, but the menu interface is broken. Every time I go in to modify it in any way (chaos mode, noclip, etc), the menu persists after I close it. In-game if I unpause, it then prevents me from pausing again. I captured a video to show it. Anybody else have this issue?

dense trout
#

i have a issue, although i think its caused by bonfire, not sure

#

for me, when i pause the game, its fine, but when i go to unpause, it will still be paused. i have to keep "unpausing" the game in order for me to play again, but the menu doesn't stick around

#

And its nothing game breaking either, just annoying

Say, there's a pair of mods I would like to use, but both seem to be dependent on overwriting Assembly-CSharp.dll. Is there any way I can use these through the modloader?
https://www.nexusmods.com/hollowknight/mods/4
https://www.nexusmods.com/hollowknight/mods/3

sour pivot
#

I'd recommend just using CharmOverhaul, which makes compass free and a ton of other rebalance changes

grizzled hare
#

Oh that works, perfect

#

Though, I'm also using Hollow Point, and I recall the readme for that saying it wasn't compatible with Charm Overhaul

sour pivot
#

Both of those mods make changes to almost every charm, so yeah they're not really compatible

grizzled hare
#

Hmmm, well I'd think the compass and swarm one would be compatible at least.

#

The issue is that I can't install that and the mod api at the same time

covert oasis
#

@grizzled hare why tf are you getting mods off nexus

#

?i

proud quailBOT
covert oasis

use this

grizzled hare

I did yes

Is it now downloaded?

I am confusion

Now how do i actually download the mods?

#

because here there isnt any checkbox typa thing

#

the mod installer downloads them

#

Please explain

#

I'm so sorry I'm literally so confused rn lol

#

I just wanna play randomizer

#

when you start the mod installer, a window pops up

You put them all in the customknight folder

I know the HUD goes int here

should I unzip the files?

Open your inventory

#

I mean in the sense that I know what items I'm missing

real jacinth

I don't understand. All your items are shown in your inventory

And you can just Google what a 100% file with all items looks like.

#

alright

real jacinth
#

Like this

#

wait

#

wouldn't it be 120%?

real jacinth
#

Well first off, max is 112

#

And second, this is probably an old screenshot. I just googled one quick

#

And all they added was charms and bosses, which doesn't change this screen

Readme

Here is a collection of very simple example mods to get you started with writing your own mods.

Each example works similar to the other, but shows how to have mods with no settings, save game settings, and global settings. Each example also has helper code to package up your mod into the format that is expected for mods during the build event.

To get started, download one of the example mods, open it in visual studio and click Build. What you should end up with is a folder called Distribution with the built mod and also a zip file ready to be uploaded.

I get this error when I try to build the example mod:

1>------ Build started: Project: ExampleMod1, Configuration: Debug Any CPU ------

Why, i dont know, but when they are md files, the mod manager cant read them. BUt when they are txt files, they open just fine

#

Here, i tried opening the charm overhaul readme via mod manager, but i get error, and the read me is a md file

#

Here, i changed it from md, to txt, and the mod installer opens the read me just fine

#

when it has no read me, you will get this

Odd

#

Well in any case I submitted a pr to fix this for people like you who've never opened an md file before

#

"fix", still won't show the markdown properly because it just opens as txt

Hello, I was trying to get the enemy randomizer working and came upon some issues. Initially, I could click on it in the menu and after changing its settings, I would click "back" and the menu wouldn't disappear, but the previous menu would overlap with it, making it impossible to navigate menus.

After some struggle, I got my settings as I wanted them, loaded the randomizer, then created a new game only to softlock immediately (no character on screen, camera in a wall next to a geo cache in King's Path). I could Alt + F4 out but no other inputs would affect the game.

Now I've manually reinstalled the mod and it won't allow me to click it in the options menu. The image attached shows what I see.

#

Any idea what I may have done incorrectly? The API and ModCommon appear to be installed just fine, and that was the only suggestion in the ReadMe.

#

Upon loading another pre-existing save file it seems like maybe all my areas are jacked up for some reason? Like, the walls and floors are not in the correct places.

playing randomizer 2 and enemy randomizer mods and every room is messed up after a crash.. any fix?

#

same with coolant

#

its like 2 rooms are combined at once

#

if i revert to unmodded everything goes fine

#

disabling chaos mode in enemy randomizer worked

#

- Chaos Mode - Each enemy will be fully randomized with no restrictions when you enter a new room. Enemies of the same type can be changed into different things.

Thanks for the info Breaks! Still wonder about the menu problem. Too bad Chaos Mode doesn't work either ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

what modding API was the binding mod supposed to work on? perhaps it's poorly supported with the newest API

is there such a mod that allows me to fight/unlock pure vessel without beating pantheon 3?

I think you can just create a new save in godseeker mode and then play against it there

@south basin i started the save file (with chaos disabled), then went back to the title screen and enabled chaos mode, then loaded my save back and i didnt have the problem anymore (and chaos mode was working!)

@molten notch when you get the 2 rooms overlapping glitch just quit to menu and load the save again, then it'll be fixed.
