real jacinth
#

sure

rapid linden
#

Ok good now it asks me what is the path, if it's not the one that written what should I put

real jacinth
#

well where is your game at

rapid linden
#

I got it on steam, so it's in my steam library I guess

real jacinth
#

on your C drive?

#

or D drive

#

it's going to ask you those two locations

#

because those are the most common

rapid linden
#

Idk I'll see

#

So first should I say no to what it's telling me it is ?

real jacinth
#

no

#

only say no if it's not actually there

#

right click HK in steam

#

and go to local files

rapid linden
#

ok

#

Browse local files I guess ?

real jacinth
#

yup

#

where does that take you

rapid linden
#

The same place it was asking me if it was right

#

So steam steamapps common hollowknight

real jacinth
#

on C:\

rapid linden
#

Yes

real jacinth
#

so then just say yes

#

and that's it

rapid linden
#

Well when I do that the mod installer doesn't show any "preinstalled" mods

real jacinth
#

nothing is pre-installed

rapid linden
#

Yeah but mods already in the installer

#

I mean you still have to download them but they're there

real jacinth
#

it should look like this

rapid linden
#

Ok well rn my pc is telling me that it didn't allow access to C:\temp, might be the problem

#

Cause if I ignore this I don't have this whole thing you have

real jacinth
#

where is your installer located? move it to desktop and run as admin

rapid linden
#

I'll try

#

Ok it's good now

#

Last time it didn't download modcommon

#

still having problems with the randomizer, i restarted the game several times last night, turned my computer off for the night and tried again today, it just puts me at the beginning of the game with no cutscenes, i can't move but i can look up and down. pause button doesn't work either so i have to alt f4 out of the game. rn i am using just the randomizer mod and the required benchwarp and seanpr, all other mods are disabled

real jacinth
#

enemy randomizer

#

i'm assuming

glass latch
#

no just randomizer 3

real jacinth
#

did you install this with modinstaller 2? it should auto install modcommon as well, which you need

#

can you send some screenshots, of your title screen, your installer, your mods folder, etc

glass latch
#

just tried again and it let me pause this time, and once i unpaused it i was able to move

tough cradle
#

How do I revert it back

#

Wont let me press it

#

wait

#

let me close the game

#

Ye its working now

#

So then it should revert back to normal with the saves?

#

Aight thanks

dapper shale
#

do you play on controller

i do

#

are you fucking serious

#

is that crashing it

glass meteor
#

what controller

vestal kelp
#

i don't even know

glass meteor
#

ok so some generic shit right

vestal kelp
#

it's a weird third party controller

covert oasis
#

unplug controller and plug it back in when the game is loaded

glass meteor
#

vestal kelp
#

what the fuck

glass meteor
#

really stupid bug

vestal kelp
#

i hate hollow knight

covert oasis
#

tc code

glass meteor
#

that I would love to fix

#

but I don't have a controller which yeets the game

#

Make sure you grab benchwarp

#

quitting out will also yeet the game

#

but warping using bench warp will not

covert oasis
#

just buy like 2000 controllers until you find one that crashes the game

#

ez

glass meteor
#

you don't have like a dolphin bar or anything right

vestal kelp
#

i don't think so

glass meteor
#

Is your controller Logitech by any chance

vestal kelp
#

i doubt it

Hi Everybody! I just tried playing the Random Item mod for Hollow Knight and I tried buying Desolate Dive from Salubra, but now I can't do Desolate Dive. It is not in my inventory list of skills anyway. Does anyone know if this is just a bug or something?]

#

I'm starting to requestion myself and think I bought descending dark and not desolate dive. Not sure tho. I'll press on. Thanks!

elfin jasper
#

That is a bug with that version of the randomizer that permanently affects the save.

#

You can update the randomizer by opening the modinstaller

#

Spells are given additively, so buying descending dark and desolate dive have the same effect

devout kite
#

Oh ok thank you. I will look into updating the modinstaller.

#

So do you mean if I buy descending dark, it'll work, even if I don't have desolate dive yet?

#

Actually I think that will all be clear to me as I play more. I will leave now and focus on upgrading. Thank you for your help, homothety!

elfin jasper
#

Buying either will give you level 1 dive.

devout kite
#

Oooh ok thank you!

Hope you have a fun time ^_^

#

any other mods you'd recommend for rando?

or is it all good as it is?

Rando 3 expects Benchwarp, so make sure to have that

I'm confused as to how to get the gun in the Hollow point mod

#

Oh, Okay, thanks

#

I pressed my focus part, but it didn't give a gun, wait, is the gun the focus ability?

real jacinth
#

no. it takes the place of your nail iirc

#

so you just hold down attack

#

focus is just the "swap weapon" button

iron marsh
#

swap weapon? I don't see that

real jacinth
#

is the mod installed correctly?

iron marsh
#

I have absolutely no clue lol, I mean, I installed it manually via the "Manually installed mods, would I have to move the mod directly into my hollow knight folder?

real jacinth
#

the mod is on the installer

#

you don't need to manually install it

#

and it should be showing top left of your title screen

iron marsh
#

I can't believe I didn't see that lol

real jacinth
#

in that list of mods

iron marsh
#

Ok, just installed it via the mod installer, I'm going to try this again

real jacinth
#

make sure it's top left of title screen when you boot up the game

I opened the HK folder in AppData and all the mod files was there, except for Randomizer 3

#

i tried to unistall and istall again, but nothing changes

#

Maybe the mod installer is trying to install in the wrong place for some reason? I tried to change de default folder but i can't get into de actual HK folder cause is in AppData LocalLow

real jacinth
#

send some screenshots. of your game mods folder, the title screen, your installer, etc

#

the appdata locallow location is where your saves are, not your game

desert crystal
#

Ohh thanks, i found the real folder of the game

#

All the files are there but

#

Randomizer and now i found out Grimmchield Upgrades is failing to load too

real jacinth
#

well. assuming you didn't cut off your screenshot, you're missing seanprcore

#

which some mods require to function

desert crystal
#

Yeah, for some reason SeanprCore was disabled

#

Probably i forgot his utility, check the discription and how he doesn't have ReadMe i just disabled

#

thanks for the help

small shore
#

Anyone on that can help me with Randomizer 3? I set up the settings and it is just frozen after I hit start run

#

I have seanprcore enable on the mod launcher and the molding api is 53

real jacinth
#

Screenshots plz

elfin jasper
#

turn off random start items, if you were using that

How do I make a backup file of the game exactly?

#

where can I download manually debug ?

#

because for some reason ModInstaller doesn't work

real jacinth
#

which one

#

debug

#

and I seriously doubt the installer isn't working

jolly grove
#

the latest version

#

well I'm maybe using the wrong default installation path

#

but it doesn't work when I use the recommended one

real jacinth
#

well, where's your game

#

do you have the steam version?

jolly grove
#

yes

real jacinth
#

okay, so right click HK in steam, and browse to local files

jolly grove
#

wait I'm looking at the location of the files

#

steamapps > Common > Hollow Knight

real jacinth
#

on what drive

#

C:\ ? D:\ ?

jolly grove
#

C:

real jacinth
#

okay, so your game is at exactly the default spot

jolly grove
#

what

#

it suddendly works even tho I already restarted it multiple times

#

well thank you

Hi all... complete n00b here. I am on a Mac running macOS Catalina. I downloaded the modinstaller from the link in the pinned messages. First I had to override my system to open the file. Then it said something about downloading mono to run, which could take 2-10 minutes. I assume it was working in the background, unless my system is preventing the mono download. But now, when I open it, the icon appears and then immediately disappears from my dock. I don't know the first thing about writing commands in Terminal, and the program doesn't show up in my Force Quit list. Are there any further install instructions for Mac users?

real jacinth
#

are you using the modinstaller 2

fierce schooner
#

can you download hollow knight mods on mac mojav

real jacinth
#

yes

fierce schooner
#

how

real jacinth
#

pinned messages

#

second pin

fierce schooner
#

thanks found it

glad meteor
#

Oh I don't know if it's modinstaller 2. Hold for screenshot.

real jacinth
#

use the modinstaller 2

#

first pin in this channel

glad meteor
#

Ok, trying now.

#

@real jacinth Thanks so much. It installed. Now I just have to figure out how to get it to work. 'Preciate it!

real jacinth
#

install the following along with any mods you want to play:
modding api (windows)
modcommon
seanprcore

glad meteor
#

Again, thank you. I don't suppose there's a beginner's guide to this process? I have no clue what these are or where to find them.

real jacinth
#

they're all on the installer

glad meteor
#

Will these help modinstaller find and access my game?

real jacinth
#

no

#

they allow other mods to function

glad meteor
#

Ahh, ok.

#

Awesome! It worked!

#

Modcommon and API showed up in the top left, but I also tried enabling Redwing, and that did not show up.

#

Are some of these not compatible with Macs? Or should all of them work no matter what?

real jacinth
#

they all should work

#

was your game closed when you added redwing? you can't install mods when the game is running

glad meteor
#

It was closed.

real jacinth
#

what does the mods menu in the in-game options look like? and a screenshot of your installer would help too.

#

then next step after that is looking at your actual game files to be sure they got there

glad meteor
#

Haha, looks like they did not get there.

covert oasis
#

no

glad meteor
#

Is there a different mod you would recommend I try?

#

The ModInstaller created a folder in Steam's application support folder (that's the same place Steam saved Hollow Knight).

#

Quick update: It's not all mods that don't work. I tried a couple others that worked just fine.

small shore
#

I have a question. Can you use debug mod to make it where you take double damage? If not is there a different way to do that? I know there is hell mod but it takes ten years to kill anything cause your nail is so weak.

real jacinth
#

You could overcharm

#

Or change your hp value in your save to be equivalent to double dmg

small shore
#

How would I change my hp value in a save? Never done that. I'm using the bindings mod so I cant over charm

real jacinth
#

QoL mod decrypts the saves into json files

#

just open the json in a txt editor and change values as you please

small shore
#

Okay. Thanks. Didnt know that.

small shore
#

Can I post links here?

#

Found a really cool thing someone made. Its a save editor online.

real jacinth
#

we know about it

small shore
#

Hell yeah

untold elm
#

and you can use debug to just enable overcharmed mode

How do you enable the mantis gods mod?

#

It says its on on the menu

#

And its at the top right

#

#

its not working

real jacinth
#

Then it's enabled. You fight them at hall of gods or at their vanilla spot. But the vanilla fight has to be defeated

#

And you can't be in godhome mode

Ahh

That must be why

#

HAve you fixed the glitch on ememy HP bar?

real jacinth

when did you last update your version of it

and thank you for explaining what you mean in another channel, because "the glitch" is not very descriptive

#

what other mods do you have installed too?

zenith mantle
#

no other mods, the game crashes when ever i die, and i un and re downloaded it.

real jacinth

and you used the installer for all of that?

#

what's your OS

and what game version do you have

and some screenshots would help

glass meteor
#

yes

hoary aspen
#

So how do I install the randomizer mod? There are like 3 different instances of it in the mod loader, right?

covert oasis
#

use rando 3

hoary aspen
#

I also need benchwarp, yes?

covert oasis
#

yes

hoary aspen
#

Ok

#

is there a specific configuration I should use as well? Also does it randomizes enemies?

covert oasis
#

if you don't know any skips do easy

#

enemy rando is a different, really broken mod

hoary aspen
#

seemed kinda fun

covert oasis
#

it technically works but if you plan on doing a full rando playthrough don't use enemy rando

hoary aspen
#

damn

#

I'm actually still kinda tempted...

#

Also shouldn't I be teleporting to completely different rooms when I go through a door?

short heath
#

For debug mod, the guide says to copy the files and something but I separated the 1.2.2.1 and normal into two diffferent "games" so how do I do it from there?

#

because I didn't call the folder Hollow Knight so renaming it wouldn't change where steam goes

hoary aspen
#

also what happens if you enabled "cursed" in the randomizer?

#

lol

azure loom
#

hi how do i toggle each component in the quality of life mod

#

and is there a way i can get rid of the text in the top left of the menu?

little forge
#

So If played with mods, but didn’t save the copy of original one, but still want to play original. Can I return to original one this way: i just delete modded hollow knight?

small solstice
#

If I was to use the benchwarp mod to warp into the black egg temple immediately to fight thk with no upgrades, would he actually be killable?

#

He was definitely immortal when he showed up outside of the black egg when I was playing with the enemy randomizer and hadn't killed all the dreamers but I don't know if the dreamers were the cause of that or not so

sleek tiger
#

wat

#

I'm pretty sure THK isn't immortal in any case

#

any more details on the enemy rando thing?

small solstice
#

He was in the top right of forgotten crossroads, replacing the husk guard that guards a grub up there. And he was definitely very immortal, I hit him a lot of times and he never even thought about dying or going into his second phase

sleek tiger
#

do you have debug on as well?

small solstice
#

I don't

sleek tiger
#

you can use it to check HP

small solstice
#

Sounds like a smart plan

sleek tiger
#

also THK has about 1000 HP

#

and with the first nail you deal about 7 per hit

small solstice
#

I had a few nail upgrades before I tried to kill him

sleek tiger
#

that'dbe more reasonable then, I guess

#

hmm

small solstice
#

I could count how many times I hit him, if you want. It was on stream so there's video of it

sleek tiger
#

ah, can I have the stream/vid then?

small solstice
#

Lemme find the timestamp

#

I also didn't actually spend as long trying to kill him as I thought, but he did get stabbed like, a lot

#

I had either two or three nail upgrades, I'm gonna assume it was two

little forge
#

Can someone help? :>

sleek tiger
#

his 2nd phase is a bit longer than the first one

#

it does seem to be dragging out a bit long but doesn't seem unreasonable

#

oh, wait

#

Hornet won't come around to help

small solstice
#

Yooo, that makes sense

sleek tiger
#

making the 2nd phase thrice as longas the first one

#

it took ya a bit

#

you just need to whack him a ton

#

also, @little forge yes?

small solstice
#

Dang is it really that long without Hornet?

sleek tiger
#

smacking him while he's stabbing himself deals no damage

small solstice
#

It's been a long, long time since I fought him without her showing up

#

I am aware, I even commented on it. And yet I still do it

sleek tiger
#

yeah

small solstice
#

He just feels so good to stab

sleek tiger
#

so he was stabbing himself a ton for some reason and were dealing very little damage total

small solstice
#

So he was very mortal and it's just a way longer fight without Hornet than I thought, good to know

sleek tiger
#

pretty sure he's not immortal

#

and that I've beaten the game by randomly killing him in CoT

#

he shouldn't be dependent on the dreamers

small solstice
#

Thanks for the education 👍

sleek tiger
#

you're welcome!

little forge
#

@sleek tiger So If played with mods, but didn’t save the copy of original one, but still want to play original. Can I return to original one this way: i just delete modded hollow knight?

sleek tiger
#

hm?

#

the mod installer has an option to revert back to unmodded

#

and unload all mods you have installed

little forge
#

Yeah?

#

Didn’t know that :>

grave girder
#

Yeah, you should be able to kill HK outside of the arena in Enemy Randomizer, and if you do, it currently should trigger the focus sequence to end the game

#

@hoary aspen If you want use Enemy Randomizer, having Debug Mod on is recommended. A lot of the previous issues have been fixed recently, but there are still a lot of wrinkles that need ironing out (like some arena gates not opening after battles).

hoary aspen
#

I see

grave girder
#

The primary issue it has paired with Item Rando is that it doesn't currently have any consideration for enemies that are required in the logic for pogos and such. So, mind that you may need to cheat to pick up the occasional item that you normally would

#

But it is certainly playable, so if you want to, go for it! ^_^ If you do run into any major issues, feel free to DM me so that I can add them to my list

rapid linden
#

My rando savefiles (happened to room and item) keep dissapearing everytime I close the game, does anyone know what might be causing this ?

#

I don't have this mod installed though

#

Thanks for the help anyway ^^

#

Oh wait it had to update, I thought I did the update yesterday but apparently I didn't, it's probably the issue

rapid linden
#

Well heck I did update it but it's still happening (my rando files dissapear everytime I restart the game)

torpid sage
#

this isn't really modding but can you increase nail damage somehow?

#

on a specific save file?

rapid linden
#

Debug mod allows it

#

When you are in the debug menu you have a binds window and there you can get more nail damage (4 by 4)

tawny sedge
#

Is there a way to mod the Xbox version of this game?

rapid linden
#

I don't think so

sleek tiger
#

no

tawny sedge
#

Darn, these bosses are so hard haha

sleek tiger
#

ah, which boss?

#

you can always go to #hk-help if you need help with amy specific boss

tawny sedge
#

Bought it for my girls to play with them (Elder Hu)

sleek tiger
#

ah

#

Elder Hu is rather harsh if not prepared well

#

have they reached the city of tears?

tawny sedge
#

Yeah, I feel like I need more prep somehow. I feel like I get things a bit out of order in this game

sleek tiger
#

there's a nailsmith in the city

#

have you visited him yet?

torpid sage
#

Whos Ender Hu?

sleek tiger
#

in the west corner

#

Elder Hu's one of the ghosts

torpid sage
#

ohh

sleek tiger
#

located in the fungal wastes

tawny sedge
sleek tiger
#

ooh, how did you access the resting grounds?

tawny sedge
#

I don't think we've got there yet

sleek tiger
#

you have a map to it

tawny sedge
#

Through some caves I believe, with crystals

sleek tiger
#

alright yeah

#

from the fungal wastes

#

look for a place near the bottom you can head to the right

#

there's a large sign near it and Hornet's wairing for you (in case you haven't met her already)

#

it requires some parkour above an acid pit

#

this is what the entrance looks like

tawny sedge
#

Oh, I've seen some of those bouncy mushrooms. They seem worse than actually jumping!

sleek tiger
#

no, no, you get a glimpse of her in the fungal wastes

#

yeah good point

#

thanks

is it normal if enemy randomizer doesn't work or this is what "- I am trying to play ENEMY RANDOMIZER, and the percentage freezes when trying to load.

  • This is a known issue with the mod, which may occur randomly and is not always fixable. Try the following: get the latest version off of ModInstaller, make sure ModCommon is installed, do not change windows while the enemy randomizer is loading."

#

It doesn't seem to freeze or anything

minor nest
#

Is there a mod that can gives me all masks

sleek tiger
#

either debug or save editing

grave girder
#

@jolly grove Do you mean that it gets through the entire loading sequence after clicking the load button on the main menu, but your enemies are not randomized when you enter the game?

jolly grove
#

yes i think

#

I have a loading sequence when I start the game

#

but maybe it's room randomizer loading

grave girder
#

By loading sequence, do you mean the bar in the center of the screen before the main menu, or is it a percentage value with different rooms flashing in the background of the main menu?

jolly grove
#

yes the bar in the center of the screen

grave girder
#

I believe that is the basic mod stuff loading. Enemy Rando itself does not automatically activate when launching the game. There should be a button in the top left on the main menu that starts the activation for it (it takes a while and will show the percentage through the load)

#

Also, please make sure it is updated to version 0.3.1 before you start if you plan to do it with Rando 3

jolly grove
#

well I don't know if I'll play with rando and ennemy randomizer at the same time

#

but thank you for your help

grave girder
#

Fair. 0.3.1 still has a lot of fixes that will make the experience go more smoothly for you. Still recommended to play with Debug since a lot of the quirks are still present though.

#

If you have any major issues with it after getting it started, please do let me know so that I can add them to my checklist

jolly grove
#

well, not randomize the enemies is an issue

#

but I guess I should read readme again I probably missed something

jolly grove
#

yeah it never loads but mods still usually work

grave girder
#

I don't know for sure off the top of my head (I will check it once I can get back to my computer), but Enemy Randomizer might rely on ModCommon. The ModLog will provide additional info though

Yup

#

Looks like Enemy Randomizer is failing when trying to find a ModCommon method

#

ModCommon is failing with "System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation"

I seem to recall discussion around this issue recently. Does anyone know the fix?

Sorry, it's probably the "System.ArgumentException: JSON parse error: The document is empty", but I don't know much about ModCommon so I do not know what json file it is failing

does the modmanager installer for mac work?

because when i did that it said permission denied

i even enabled the root user mode

#

still says permission denied

modmanager installer?

#

mod installer?

glad dew
#

like in the pinned messages i saw the ModManager for mac

#

and then like

sleek tiger
#

ah

glad dew

it was a .zip

#

so i opened it

#

and got the modmanager, but when i press it

sleek tiger
#

I can only help with "it depends on the version of mac you're using"

glad dew

it becomes mono32

then when it says mono32, zote's face becomes the icon

and then it just quits

dusky spindle
runic oriole
#

do you have multiple installs of the game?

dusky spindle
#

No

runic oriole
#

steam or gog?

dusky spindle
#

Steam, trying to completely uninstall, might be an old version of modinstaller spooking

runic oriole
#

don't need to uninstall

#

just use steam's verify the integrity of the game's files

#

also, how old is your installer?

dusky spindle
#

Alright so no definitly didn't work

#

Uninstalled the game -> Removed all left over files -> Reinstalled

#

Still the same error

runic oriole
#

ok, so

#

how old is your installer?

dusky spindle
#

The latest

#

From pinned in the modding-discussion channel

runic oriole
#

did you get it recently?

dusky spindle
#

10 min ago or so

runic oriole
#

ok

#

can you show me your managed folder?

#

Hollow Knight/hollow_knight_Data/Managed

dusky spindle
#

Like all of it?

runic oriole
#

specifically the Assembly-CSharp.dll

dusky spindle
runic oriole
#

delete that .dll

#

then verify files on steam

dusky spindle
#

Proof that indeed it did verify

runic oriole
#

I don't doubt you

dusky spindle
#

and now "Revert Back To Unmodded"

runic oriole
#

btw

#

just verifying would be enough to revert back to unmodded

dusky spindle
runic oriole
#

tell me, are there any .vanilla or .mod files in your managed folder?

dusky spindle
#

Nope

#

So then that's good?

runic oriole
#

I mean

#

it just means that the button won't work

#

so to revert to unmodded, just verify

#

and DON'T launch the installer

#

because as soon as the installer launches, it'll mod your game

dusky spindle
#

But isn't revert back to unmodded suppose disable all?

#

So it's a bug?

runic oriole
#

no, it doesn't disable all

#

it just removes that file

#

which is the thing that mods the game

#

but you need the vanilla file to replace it, otherwise the game won't run

#

so the installer usually would make a backup of the vanilla when it first runs

#

and then replace the modded file with it when you press that button

#

but it's not doing that

#

so you need to manually do it by verifying

dusky spindle
#

But mods are still installed and not disabled

runic oriole
#

Yes

#

The game just won't recognise them is all

dusky spindle
#

Then @___@ why is there a disable button for mods?

#

Sorry I'm confused, not mad or anything

#

Last question can you seed Randomzie Enemies?

#

@plucky kestrel I guess I should ping

plucky kestrel
#

uhhh

#

I think there's a setting for it, but it might not have a seed editor

#

I'm pretty sure you can seed it though

dusky spindle
#

Öh... apparently there is when you restart the game? nvm then

#

Could Chaos Mode randomize bosses to normal enemies and vice versa?

plucky kestrel
#

it shouldn't randomise bosses, at least not most of the time, but normal enemies can turn into bosses

dusky spindle
#

And Room mode off will still randomize but just not new enemies per re-entry?

plucky kestrel
#

no, it will randomise each type of enemy into a different type of enemy, say primal aspids into vengeflies, but it will re-randomise the enemies every time you enter a room

dusky spindle
#

Even if it's off?

plucky kestrel
#

as opposed to chaos mode, which will randomise each enemy individually rather than a whole type

#

oh, with it off

#

yeah, what you said

Yeah all of em off

plucky kestrel
#

didn't see that

dusky spindle
#

Cool :D thanks

#

Appriciate it

plucky kestrel
#

oh, and keep in mind that with everything off, each enemy type will only be randomised once, so in the earlier example, any time you would get a primal aspid, you would only ever get a vengefly

grave girder
#

Yeah, you can select your seed. Whatever the seed value is in the options menu should be pulled when you start a new file, and the same seed (with the same settings) should produce the same replacements each time

#

Well, except Chaos Mode

runic oriole
#

Then @___@ why is there a disable button for mods?
@dusky spindle

#

like I said, it's supposed to delete the thing that makes the game recognize installed mods

dusky spindle
#

Right but it doesn't, I still have to verify my game integrity every time @runic oriole

runic oriole
#

ok, I have one last suggestion if you'd like to give it a try

#

also wdym "every time"

#

how often are you switching from modded to undmodded

#

so, what you should do is

#

find the modinstaller folder in your appdata

#

I don't remember whether it's in roaming, local or locallow

#

either way, it's there

#

so you delete it

#

then verify integrity

#

then run the installer again

#

it should work

#

if it doesn't, and you don't care, here's a permanent fix:

#

verify game files

#

go to the managed folder, copy the Assembly-CSharp.dll file and rename the extension to .vanilla

#

run the installer

#

now the button should work

dusky spindle
#

Giving it a try :D first method, then last method (.vanilla)

runic oriole
#

got it

#

the second method is just doing manually what the installer is supposed to do for you

#

the first method is trying to reset the installer so it does what it's supposed to

dusky spindle
#

I really appreciate the help though, it's nice of you to take your time to help me

runic oriole
#

np

#

the installer not working kinda is my fault, so

dusky spindle
#

for installation path is it root of hollow knight or hollow_knight_Data?

runic oriole
#

root

#

the one with the exe

dusky spindle
#

First method does not work

runic oriole
#

ok

dusky spindle
#

Had a friend try it out on Win7 (I am on Win10) and it does crash without warning when clicking OK on the prompt given the first method

#

Not even the "Unable to locate"

#

Thought that might be of interest (maybe not since W7 is old)

runic oriole
#

ok, it should defo not crash

#

I know what the issue is

dusky spindle
#

So from what I gather, it unsuccessfully creates the .vanilla file at startup (prior to patching it) and that then leads to a faulty backup since there is nothing to backup

#

Backup being restore/revert here

runic oriole
#

nah

#

it never creates the vanilla

#

when it's first installing the api, it checks if the file already is the api, and if so it creates the vanilla

#

that's stupid

#

that if is reversed

#

@glass meteor who coded this shitty mess

#

ffs

dusky spindle
#
                File.Copy
                (
                    $"{Properties.Settings.Default.APIFolder}/Assembly-CSharp.dll",
                    $"{Properties.Settings.Default.APIFolder}/Assembly-CSharp.vanilla",
                    true
                );

^ This then?

runic oriole
#

before that

#

the if

#

it's like "is the game modded?" and if it is, it's creating the vanilla

glass meteor
#

@runic oriole you

runic oriole
#

but the thing is, this is running while installing the modding thing

#

shh

glass meteor
#

they hated him because he told the truth

runic oriole
#

but I love you tho

dusky spindle
#

Oh

#

.... Ohhhhhh

runic oriole
#

the gist of it is

#

it never creates the backup

dusky spindle
#

_assemblyIsAPI is always false then huh since it will never find CanvasUtil?

runic oriole
#

I gotta eat now, but I can explain it in a bit

#

brb

dusky spindle
#

Alright! Thank you have a nice meal

runic oriole
#

so, it's supposed to, when installing the modded game files, back up the vanilla ones, for easy recovery

#

it's supposed to achieve that by checking if the current game files are modded and, if not, back them up before installing

#

but it's currently doing the opposite - that is, if the current game files are modded, then it is backing them up

#

that's it

dusky spindle
#

Yeah I figured (re-read what you wrote above)

#

Cool, well at least this helped to identify that! :D

sinful coral
#

I've tried to install mods on the GOG version of the game on mac os Catalina but the game just loads normally with none of them active. Is there a way to fix this?

sinful coral
#

anyone?

sleek tiger
#

did you use the catalina version of the installer?

jolly grove
#

When I'm on the title screen I read at the top left
"C:/Program Files[...]\ModCommon.dll: FAILE TO LOAD! check ModLog.txt"
and
"EnemyRandomizer: FAILED TO LOAD! Check Modlog.txt"

#

usually mods work but not enemy randomizer

#

but I still have the loading screen when I start the game

sinful coral
#

Yes I did

jolly grove
#

what should I do to play with EnemyRandomizer ?

dusky spindle
#

@jolly grove Install it via the ModInstaller, and then go into settings to set it up, then click Randomize Enemies on the main menu

jolly grove
#

there's no "randomize enemies" on the menu

#

probably because it failed to load

pale chasm
