hoary bear
#

wheat orchid
#

Is it a part that is unintended or intended

past swallow
#

Is it a part that is unintended or intended
@wheat orchid very unintended

wheat orchid
#

What exactly happens

past swallow
#

the camera teleports to 50 locations, teleports me and makes the game run at 50000000 ping

#

it happened just today

wheat orchid
#

50000000 ping?

#

What’s that?

past swallow
#

im joking

hoary bear
#

so, how does it work?

past swallow
#

ping delays my inputs by a lot

#

and its pain

wheat orchid
#

Ok

#

Hmmm

#

Idk

past swallow
#

i will send a screenshot if i can of the camera being crap

hoary bear
#

past swallow
#

its very angering

hoary bear
#

yeah nothing happened when i installed the mod intaller

past swallow
#

i need a solution

#

why must this happen to me

wheat orchid
#

@past swallow you probably binded some keys to random debug features

#

Go to your saves and delete all files with debug.globalsettings in their name

flat light
#

how do i download mods ?

west bane
#

?i

proud quailBOT
high sandal
#

how can i add teleports to certain locations with the debug mod?

crystal bay
#

bench warp lets you teleport to benches

willow hazel
#

weird question but if I were to uninstall hollow knight with modding stuff what would happen

high sandal
#

it is in the debug mod or is it other?

real jacinth
#

The game would be uninstalled

#

And you can add infinite dream gate locations with debug

#

And select which to go to

willow hazel
#

whut happens to the modding stuf
does it just stay there

real jacinth
#

No

#

The game is deleted

willow hazel
#

so I would need to

#

reinstall the mods

#

modding program

real jacinth
#

The installer isn't installed anywhere

willow hazel
#

wat

real jacinth
#

But yes, you'd have to run the exe again

willow hazel
#

soo

#

basically if i were to uninstall hollow knight, the modding program would go with it?

#

aka deleting it

real jacinth
#

No

willow hazel
#

oh

real jacinth
#

The mods would

#

Not the installer

willow hazel
#

oHHH

real jacinth
#

So you run the installer again

willow hazel
#

so

#

the mods would be gone, just the not the installer

#

so i would have to install the mods again?

crystal bay
#

yes

willow hazel
#

o k

#

.-.

#

ok when i install the modder for windows, my windows security blocks it ;-;

real jacinth
#

So tell it not to

willow hazel
#

well

#

.-.

#

soo

#

continue regardlesS?

real jacinth
#

Yes

willow hazel
#

better not have a virus

#

lol

real jacinth
#

Yeah, a program written by us is super malicious

willow hazel
#

e

#

i think the only reason it does that is because it does not know who the publisher is

long escarp
#

where do you do the challenges for different CKs?

real jacinth
#

on your computer

willow hazel
#

screwing around with the debug mod, but how do you teleport >->

real jacinth
#

placing dream gates

#

and using it

willow hazel
#

also sorry if this doesnt belong here

#

o h ok

real jacinth
#

or by installing bench warp mod

#

and teleporting to benches

#

Hey! I'm new to Hollow Knight modding and I was wondering if there was a way for me to be able to play on Godseeker mode without having to play through the whole game again.

wheat orchid
#

Wdym

west bane
#

i guess unlocking godseeker without having to go to p3 agin

wheat orchid
#

Oh

#

Idk if there is a mod for that

#

Maybe download a save and complete a pantheon?

fair ibex
#

i mean you can grab a godseeker save file from speedrunning resources

#

with everything maxed

sinful thorn
#

I already beat the game twice on my switch, so I bought it

west bane
#

there's a 112 save but it will bug out lmao

#

so i guess launch that save, exit to main menu, or close, then restart and should be able to make a godseeker mode

fair ibex
#

you can get a godseeker mode save file with all lifeblood from speedrunning resources though

west bane
#

that works too

strange blaze
#

is there a hp bar mod just for bosses? kinda just downloaded the installer and confusion for 10 minutes

wheat orchid
#

Why not have them for everything?

stable roost
#

ok so uhh i know this isn't related to modding but i'm not sure where else to ask this, and i figured some of you may be able to help. my steam overlay isn't working for hk, even tho it works for literally every other game (i wanna use it for screenshots and such)

wheat orchid
#

It works for me

stable roost
#

ok but not for me lol

wheat orchid
#

Brb

stable roost
#

yes i already googled and apparently no one else is having this issue

strange blaze
#

Why not have them for everything?
no idea but i still only want it only on bosses lul

stable roost
#

which is pretty weird

strange blaze
#

uhm i'm trying to install a mod but it's closing the installer

limpid parcel
#

Is there a way to disable the binds for the debug mod cause its really annoying having to reduce my nail damage again and again while im doing stuff in another tab

#

Ik its something to do with the global settings but how do I get there

#

Oh wait i can also map it to buttons i never use too

#

I’ll do that instead

I just put the button to activate those to one I never use but if I wanna do that I’ll do it

hollow fossil

hollow fossil
#

whats the mod called

wheat orchid
#

Hollow point

#

Make sure to get modcommon too

hollow fossil
#

thanks!

#

i dont see it as an option?

wheat orchid
#

?

#

Which one?

hollow fossil
#

nvm

#

so i installed the mods

#

now what

wheat orchid
#

Is there a button at the bottom of the installer that says enable all installed mods?

hollow fossil
#

no

#

theres only disable buttons next to the mods themselves

wheat orchid
#

Ok

#

Try running the game then

slow mason
#

There is, actually

wheat orchid
#

If it’s there, click it

slow mason
#

You click "Change back to Unmodded" and then the button changes to "Enable all installed mods"

hollow fossil
#

nvm it worked

#

thanks!

wheat orchid
#

Np

slow mason
#

In other news, I have enabled Rando 3, and all the mods it comes with, and uh

#

The mod folder in my files says they're there

#

But Hollow Knight isn't registering that they are

wheat orchid
#

Is any text appearing at the top left?

hollow fossil
#

which button is the gun

slow mason
#

I assume the sword button

#

And uh, I don't know, lemme check

wheat orchid
#

To swap it’s either focus or quick cast

slow mason
#

Ah, the magic button makes the sword button into the gun button

hollow fossil
#

thanks!

slow mason
#

C o o l

hollow fossil
#

that other mods would you reccomend for a crazy modded playthrough

wheat orchid
#

Play Uuwuu

west bane
#

easy mode

hollow fossil
#

what is Uuwuu

west bane
#

?mods

slow mason
#

What screen is the button supposed to appear on?

#

Start screen, new game screen?

wheat orchid
#

Wdym?

slow mason
#

Is any text appearing at the top left?
@wheat orchid This

#

Where is it supposed to appear?

wheat orchid
#

Umm

west bane
#

title screen

wheat orchid
#

That’s this supposed to mean?

slow mason
#

I don't know, you brought up the text thing

#

But no, there isn't any

#

Like, I have some mods installed that would appear on the Mods section in options but they're not appearing

wheat orchid
#

Well

#

Some mods don’t appear there

hollow fossil
#

any reccomended hollow knight skins

slow mason
#

And when you start a new game with Randomizer enabled, it's supposed to bring up a menu where you input randomizer settings

#

I have Randomizer enabled

wheat orchid
#

Screenshot the main menu?

slow mason
#

The menu isn't appearing

wheat orchid
#

Ok

#

Your game isn’t modded

#

On the mod installer click enable all installed mods

slow mason
#

I... had mods on there

#

I re-opened the installer

#

And they're gone

wheat orchid
#

That’s nice

slow mason
#

All right, re-installed my mods, let's try this again

wheat orchid
#

But did you click the button at the bottom of the installer?

slow mason
#

Wait what?

wheat orchid
#

On the mod installer click enable all installed mods

#

Because you would have at least some text at the top left if the modding api was installed

hollow fossil
#

im having a weird issue

#

i think it might be with the skins?

#

the knight isnt showing up

#

the screen is just shaking

#

i added custom knight

wheat orchid
#

Screenshot pause menu or main menu

slow mason
#

Issue is, only way to access that particular button is to "revert to unmodded" but the installer won't let me

wheat orchid
#

Ok

slow mason
#

I'm just gonna restart my computer, see if that helps

wheat orchid
#

Go to your saves

#

Ok

#

Do your saves load?

slow mason
#

The saves load

wheat orchid
#

Ok

#

Idk

slow mason
#

The mods just aren't registering as there by the game

#

But they're in the mod folder

wheat orchid
#

That’s because of the api

#

It’s not installed

hollow fossil
#

im gonna remove some mods

#

see which is the issue

slow mason
#

But, the thing is that the mods were working earlier today

wheat orchid
#

Try going to your saves folder

#

slow mason
#

I was playing Redwing a few hours ago, and then I disabled it to try to run a randomizer

hollow fossil
#

slow mason
#

I did that already, is the issue.

wheat orchid
#

Idk

slow mason
#

I did that back when the saves didn't wanna work

hollow fossil
#

okay so

#

i dont know if theres a cutscene issue

#

but when i start the game

#

ims tuck on this

#

im stuck*

#

idk what ic an do

wheat orchid
#

What mods do you have installed?

hollow fossil
#

The gun one

#

I had randomizer

#

I had pallete

#

CustomKnight

wheat orchid
#

Which randomizer?

hollow fossil
#

3

wheat orchid
#

Did you have the dependencies for it?

hollow fossil
#

wdym

slow mason
#

Did a menu show up with Randomizer settings when you started the save?

hollow fossil
#

yes

slow mason
#

Okay, so it is me

hollow fossil
#

my computer 100% could run it

#

idk

#

i disabled a lot of mods

#

it was still broken

wheat orchid
#

Idk

#

Do you have seanprcore

hollow fossil
#

yeah something fucked up my download

#

ima reinstall hollowknight

#

also no

wheat orchid
#

That’s the problem probably

#

Rando needs it

slow mason
#

Hmm... All right, restarted the computer, let's see if Hollow Knight will process my mods

hollow fossil
#

yeah

#

whenever mods start working

#

the game shit sth ebed

outer kiln
#

I am having trouble getting hollow twitch working

#

I have the mod installed and I got the token and pasted it in the twitchglobal but commands wont work

wheat orchid
#

is there any parts that say null?

hollow fossil
#

it says qol failed to load

outer kiln
#

I changed all the null boxes to my user

wheat orchid
#

Even banned users?

#

Also did you add a [ and ] at the beginning and end

outer kiln
#

banned user doesnt say null

wheat orchid
#

Ok

outer kiln
#

do I need that in the token and user?

wheat orchid
#

No

outer kiln
#

ok

wheat orchid
#

Only to the stuff that was null

#

Or sounds like it could contain multiple things

#

@hollow fossil get the mod called vasi

outer kiln
#

oh so on my user and channel i put [] around it instead of ""

hollow fossil
#

@wheat orchid now it is giving me an error message

outer kiln
#

yeah so hollowtwitch wont work

hollow fossil
#

i think we are having the same issues jaybee

#

well no

#

but kinda

#

hollowpoinjt fucks up stuff

outer kiln
#

we aren't

#

@wheat orchid I have done everything you told me but am still having issues

#

am I supposed to put my user and channel in the user and channel sections?

versed remnant
#

With?

#

Do you have a picture of what it looks like

#

The readme is prob a good starting point

slow mason
#

Wait, I have moddingapi... Oh, it's moddingapi.globalsettings

wheat orchid
#

Gid for the last time, my fork of multiplayer isn’t updated from the original yet

#

I have the files on a different pc

#

You need a c# ide for that such as visual studio

#

Plus when I update mine, I’ll give you the dll

slow mason
#

Do you have to delete modding api from the saves?

versed remnant
#

Maybe don't share your token btw

wheat orchid
#

Yea

outer kiln
#

uh

wheat orchid
#

You did

outer kiln
#

I didn't know I shouldn't share it

#

lol

versed remnant
#

It would let anyone stream to your twitch channel

outer kiln
#

yeah I realized that

versed remnant
#

Generally speaking any token you don't want to share

slow mason
#

Hey, so, I was told to delete files with "api.globalsettings" in them. Does this include "moddingapi.globalsettings" files?

#

From the saves, I mean

wheat orchid
#

Yes

#

Yes

slow mason
#

Okay, with those gone, let's see if it'll FINALLY fuckin work.

outer kiln
#

ok so am I doing anything wrong?

wheat orchid
#

You should probably fill out username and channel

outer kiln
#

do I keep the []?

wheat orchid
#

No

#

“”

hollow fossil
#

do charms affect the gun

wheat orchid
#

@hollow fossil yes

outer kiln
#

That what I had at the beginning lol

wheat orchid
#

Look at fotf

hollow fossil
#

which ones

#

the ones that affect the shot or

wheat orchid
#

You really need to look at fotf though, a lot of people get confused at why strange stuff happens when it’s equipped

slow mason
#

F u c k

wheat orchid
#

Also look at the charm descriptions

hollow fossil
#

whats fotf

outer kiln
#

ok so anything else?

wheat orchid
#

Fury of the fallen

slow mason
#

Wait... I started Hollow Knight, and a new "moddingapi.globalsettings" file appeared

#

I don't...

wheat orchid
#

That’s supposed to happen

#

Did hk fix itself now?

slow mason
#

Nope!

#

I'm just gonna delete ALL the mod-related files from my saves

#

And start the hell over

tranquil lagoon
#

Yo, how do you open the modding api after installing it for the first time?

wheat orchid
#

Open hk

tranquil lagoon
#

I mean like the menu that you add mods from

wheat orchid
#

Mod installer?

#

Just open it

tranquil lagoon
#

Yeah

#

From where? I can't find the file in my HK folder

wheat orchid
#

Yeah

#

Its wherever you downloaded it to

outer kiln
#

I am having an issue where whenever I exit from the game to the menu the game crashes and I need to restart my pc in order to open hk again

#

I think it has something to do with my mods

wheat orchid
#

Probably

outer kiln
#

anyone know how i can fix?

slow mason
#

And now Hollow Knight just won't start

#

Uninstalled it

#

Steam won't let me reinstall

#

Fuckin hell...

#

Finally

#

Time to wait an hour

real jacinth
#

Turn off the controller beta input option in settings

#

That's causing your quit crash

outer kiln
#

ok

#

also how do I blacklist commands in hollow twitch

wheat orchid
#

Global settings

outer kiln
#

do I keep the []? do I add ""?

wheat orchid
#

Idk

#

I know you keep the []

outer kiln
#

ok

wheat orchid
#

Maybe do “” inside it

outer kiln
#

alright ill try it

wheat orchid
#

Then put the command inside those

outer kiln
#

one specific person keeps softlocking me and preventing me from fighting bosses

wheat orchid
#

Sounds fun

#

Blacklist them

@real jacinth it wasn't fixed

noble flicker
#

Heya I'm having some problems with a few mods

#

Think I need some help lads

real jacinth
#

you have not yet described a problem

#

help cannot be given when there is no problem presented

noble flicker
#

I'm trying to install a item randomizer but it starts installing a few different mods

real jacinth
#

and why is that a problem

noble flicker
#

And when ever I play the whole games bugs out

#

When I heal,it doesn't show any mask coming back,the geo counter is gone,and when I interact with the tablet and bench it's stuck there

late lynx
#

hello i am here to ask if anyone knows a simple way to get the mod installer on linux?

wheat orchid
#

Look in the pins

#

Use mod installer with mono

silver yew
#

bug in debug where no matter what I do I can't cast spells

#

anyone know the fix?

#

tried restarting the game, reloading the save, different save files, giving and taking away spells. Nothing works. Worth noting that this is on 1.2.2.1 with the 1.3.3 version of debug mod

wheat orchid
#

Might be something there

#

With those vers

silver yew
#

yeah but everyone on 1.2.2.1 uses the 1.3.3 version

wheat orchid
#

Idk

#

Got modcommon?

real jacinth
#

then it's totally not you doing something wrong

#

and totally everyone else

#

not experiencing the bugs you are

#

with basic functionality

silver yew
#

so what do you think I should do @real jacinth

real jacinth
#

not assume it's the mod's fault

#

and try from square 1

silver yew
#

???

real jacinth
#

to install correctly

silver yew
#

Okay. I never assumed it was the mods fault I just started having a problem and I don't want to have the problem because I want to practice

real jacinth
#

bug in debug where no matter what I do I can't cast spells

silver yew
#

so what is the more correct way of installing?

real jacinth
#

i have no idea what your current state is. you've given no info there

silver yew
#

yes. It is a problem so I said it's a bug. That not make sense?

wheat orchid
#

Are there modlogs in 1.2.2.1?

silver yew
#

Idk what a mod log is or where to find it

real jacinth
#

did you give yourself soul?

silver yew
#

yeah

#

I'm gonna try some more stuff and restart my computer hold on

#

wait

#

actually I am the stupidest person in the entire world

#

@real jacinth sorry for waisting your time lmao

#

I'm braindead after practicing mantis pogo for an hour and a half my bad

real jacinth
#

and the issue was..... you not having any soul or the spells?

wheat orchid
#

Guess we’ll never know

silver yew
#

yes

#

lmao

#

this is so embarassing sorry

wheat orchid
#

Which one?

#

It wasn’t a yes or no question

#

lol

#

Guess we really will never know

real jacinth
#

pretty hard to cast spells when you don't have them and/or don't have the mp to cast them

#

lol

silver yew
#

not having soul

#

seemed like a yes or no question in my head

#

again very braindead right now

wheat orchid
#

lol

Hello, trying to downgrade for the first time, but I'd like to keep a copy of CP because I haven't beaten P5 yet. I've followed the instructions on the most recent guide on speedrun.com, but when I try to open my 1.2.2.1 copy of the game from Steam it just opens my CP version. Anything simple I might have missed?
Edit: Woops, completely missed the step to add the steam_appid.txt file. Thought I had done it, but that was on my practice folder. Disregard!

real jacinth
#

You're probably missing QoL or a mod dependency, jace

slim kayak
#

i have QoL installed, and the readme of the mod doesnt say any other neccecary mods

real jacinth
#

Seanprcore, mod common, and you need vasi for qol

pale talon
#

Is there any mod that let's me rebuild all objects from the background OR respawn at different locations?
I'm trying to see how little you need to jump to beat hollow knight and many jumps require to be very precise, but re trying each jump takes 30 seconds. With said option it'd be much faster.
Does such a mod exist for PC?

Just move the installer exe to your desktop and run it

#

Then answer the pop-up questions it asks

#

If you installed your game on D or C drive

pale talon
#

at first the run required a total of 263 jumps, but I have already shaved 2 in the first section bc im blind in 1 part and bc I am bad in another

drifting swan
#

Quality of life

It’s on the installer

Get Vasi too

pale talon

wheat orchid

Idk if qol will do what you want, but it does other helpful stuff

manic jetty

im unsure what vasi is but i have it on all the time

?mods

wheat orchid

@manic jetty it’s another helper mod

manic jetty
#

thanks

wheat orchid
#

Np

real jacinth
#

Can't you just leave the room and come back to respawn background shit

#

And you might want save states. Which is on the speedrunner debug version

pale talon
#

i cant leave the room where you start the playthrough zote

#

also thanks 🙂

novel bronze

@novel bronze Oh...Ok good game!

Whenever I use mods for Hollow Knight, my saves do not load. I tried validifying the integrity of Hollow Knight but the mods got uninstalled when I did that. I've tried everything, but nothing seems to let me use the mods.

don't know if this is supposed to go here, but i'm doing redwing and blackmoth, and i'm confused if i'm supposed to have infinite soul. seems op

wheat orchid
#

It’s supposed to happen

#

It is very op

vital moth
#

is it from redwing or blackmoth?

wheat orchid
#

Red

vital moth
#

yeah, there's no reason to dash attack now

wind glacier
#

I used Debug mode ans i set my damage to 0

#

And

#

My damage is 8 but it should be 9

#

Because i upgraded my nail to Sharpened Nail

#

Wth i gonna do?

fickle wyvern
#

I'm currently doing a blackmoth run and have just beaten NKG. Does anybody know how do I now upgrade my super dash?

wheat orchid
#

@fickle wyvern you don’t upgrade the super dash

#

@wind glacier lower your nail damage to 0 then raise it to what it should be

fickle wyvern
#

In the readme file it said that you can super dash in mid-air and change directions after beating him.

wheat orchid
#

Idk

#

Beat him in godhome?

fickle wyvern
#

No, I've beaten him regularly, went for the ritual route. I'll try it in godhome.

#

nope.

wheat orchid
#

Idk

#

Sounds like a fun power though

fickle wyvern
#

yeah.

shadow mica

This has probably been asked a bunch, but does anyone know what's going on with the mod installer? The download page just says "Don't download this" and I was gonna get back into randomizers.

wheat orchid

?i

proud quailBOT
wheat orchid
#

Are you on windows?

shadow mica
#

Yeah. Looking at the ModDB page.

wheat orchid
#

Don’t use that

#

It’s probably an old version

shadow mica
#

Ah. I assume use the bot link?

wheat orchid
#

Yes

shadow mica

Thanks!

river ocean
#

For some reason, the mods I have downloaded don't work. When I go ingame and check Options, there's a Mods section but it is empty.

#

It keeps on telling me to verify the integrity of game files, but I've done that multiple times and it hasn't worked.

wheat orchid
#

Awwww

#

I was saying that

river ocean
#

I have mods that can be enabled/disabled without restarting.

#

They used to work, but suddenly after I've fixed a loading issue they don't.

wheat orchid
#

Look at the top left of the main menu or pause menu

river ocean
#

I've reinstalled ModInstaller but it won't work.

wheat orchid
#

Mod installer won’t work?

river ocean
#

It will run and function as normal, as far as I can see.

#

There is nothing at the top left of the pause menu.

wheat orchid
#

Or title screen?

river ocean
#

Nor the title screen.

wheat orchid
#

Well

#

The api isn’t installed then

#

There would at least be some text there

river ocean
#

But it said it was successfully installed?

wheat orchid
#

There is still a mods section in options though?

river ocean
#

Yes. There is.

wheat orchid
#

Hmmm

river ocean
#

That might be because ModInstaller was working previous, though.

wheat orchid
#

I don’t think it’s mod installer

wheat orchid

Try going to your saves and deleting anything with api.globalsettings in Its name

river ocean
#

Just api.globalsettings, not all .globalsettings?

wheat orchid
#

Just those

river ocean
#

Done.

wheat orchid
#

Now open the game

river ocean
#

Opened.

#

I see nothing at the top left of the title screen.

wheat orchid
#

Hmmm

#

Try verifying the files then running mod installer again

river ocean
#

1 file failed to verify and will be reacquired.

west bane
#

reset the installer

river ocean
#

By reinstalling?

#

Okay, I've reopened the ModInstaller.

west bane
#

how-to in the pins

river ocean
#

Okay. I've reset it and opened it.

west bane
#

did it install the moddingapi

river ocean
#

Yes.

west bane
#

k youre set now

#

just redownload the mods you want

river ocean
#

I just finished getting all the mods I had back, and reopened the game.

west bane
#

they should appear in the top left now, they should have before as well but AkaneShrug

river ocean
#

For some reason, the mods are not there.

west bane
#

can you screenshot the installer

river ocean
#

I mean, the mods are in the installer and "installed", but they are not in the game.

west bane
#

screenshotto

river ocean
#

my screenshot function seems to be broken

#

i dont know how

#

i think i broke my windows key

wheat orchid
#

Prtsc then press ctrl + v here

river ocean
#

wow magic

west bane
#

and now screenshot the title screen

river ocean
west bane
#

is your default install path set to your hk folder

#

and can i see your hk folder

river ocean
#

It's sent to my Hollow Knight folder, not the Managed one. For some reason it wouldn't let me set the Managed folder as my path destination nor the Mods folder.

west bane
#

yeah it wont let you

#

itll read the hollow knight folder itself

#

ok last resort manual installation time

#

?mods

west bane
#

go to the google drive

real jacinth
#

do you have more than 1 install

#

like on 2 different drives

river ocean
#

I don't think so.

west bane
#

yeet any past pirated versions as well, if you have them

gleaming grove
#

My Modinstaller keeps "quitting unexpectedly" after i start it

river ocean
#

I don't have a pirated version.

#

Mine used to always quit unexpectedly.

west bane
#

wen did you get your installer

gleaming grove
#

how'd you fix it?

#

me? just now

west bane
#

what OS

gleaming grove
#

The one posted in pinned by Homothety

west bane
#

mac / windows?

wheat orchid
#

What operating system are you on?

west bane
#

@river ocean go to the google drive link, type in "modding api" and grab that

lilac flax
#

So I recently installed the mod installer and skins for CustomKnight and I followed all the steps right but when I click on the skin I want to change to in-game nothing happens???

wheat orchid
#

Do you have modcommon?

#

Also screenshot the skin folder

#

And include the path

lilac flax
#

Oh I dont think I have Modcommon enabled

wheat orchid
#

Get it

#

And seanprcore

#

And Vasi

#

And weavercore if it were used by more than 1 mod and didn’t break some other mods

river ocean
#

I'm probably being an idiot but i dont see "modding api"

wheat orchid
#

In the google drive?

river ocean
#

no

west bane
#

did you type it in

river ocean
#

i searched in drive and didnt see it

wheat orchid
#

That’s probably searching your drive

river ocean
#

probably

#

im on the Mod Summaries doc now

wheat orchid
#

It’s not there

river ocean
#

oh

#

uh

wheat orchid
#

It’s one of the last folders in the drive

river ocean
#

OH

wheat orchid
#

?

river ocean
#

i found it

wheat orchid
#

yay

river ocean
#

ok

#

so

#

what do i do with the universal file?

wheat orchid
#

Replace the assembly-Csharp.dll file in your managed folder with the one there

#

After you extract the .zip

lilac flax
#

Instructions unclear, started game and immediately caught on fire(lol jk it’s redwing mod I think, thanks for the help! @wheat orchid )

wheat orchid
#

Np

#

How were the instructions unclear though?

river ocean
#

done

wheat orchid
#

Start the game

river ocean
#

nothing in the top left

wheat orchid
#

Awwwwwww

river ocean
real jacinth
#

and it asked to overwrite a file when you did it

#

'?

river ocean
#

yes

#

i did

real jacinth
#

then you definitely have 2 installs

#

like I said

river ocean
#

2 installs of Hollow Knight?

wheat orchid
#

Ye

real jacinth
#

yes

river ocean
#

how

wheat orchid
#

Do you use steam?

river ocean
#

yes

real jacinth
#

did you do the install process more than once

river ocean
#

i dont think so

real jacinth
#

on different drives

#

like C and D

river ocean
#

no

#

ive only ever used c

wheat orchid
#

Can you check for anything on D: ?

river ocean
#

to be honest im not even sure how to use D:

wheat orchid
#

Just open it?

#

Like a normal folder?

#

See if there are any folders in it

river ocean
#

"D:\ is unavailable. If the location is on this PC, make sure the device or drive is connected or the disc is inserted, and then try again. If the location still can't be found, it might have been moved or deleted."

wheat orchid
#

Maybe you have multiple on the same drive

river ocean
#

should i uninstall and reinstall hollow knight?

wheat orchid
#

Idk

river ocean
#

i dont really mind losing my save

wheat orchid
#

Check where you installed it

real jacinth
#

saves aren't stored in the game spot anyways

wheat orchid
#

It shouldn’t loose the save

real jacinth
#

right click the game in steam and browse to game location

wheat orchid
#

Right click > properties > local files > browse

river ocean
#

I only see one Hollow Knight in common

real jacinth
#

did you right click in steam

#

and do it that way

wheat orchid
#

Steam might have it somewhere else

river ocean
#

i could search PC for 10 minutes in order to find it

wheat orchid
#

Did you right click it on steam

#

Do it that way

#

Easier

river ocean
#

i did the right click way

wheat orchid
#

Hmmm

real jacinth
#

and is that the same spot you just copied the api file to?

wheat orchid
#

Didn’t you say you still have mods in the options menu?

real jacinth
#

and also silly question.... you're doing this all with the game closed yeah?

wheat orchid
#

Would be funny if they did it with the game open

river ocean
#

yes the game is closed

wheat orchid
#

Wait

river ocean
#

and is that the same spot you just copied the api file to?
@real jacinth looks like it is

wheat orchid
#

Is there a mods folder in the managed folder?

river ocean
#

yes

wheat orchid
#

Idk

#

Didn’t you say you still have mods in the options menu?

river ocean
#

yes

#

i did

wheat orchid
#

Do you still have it?

#

Can you load saves?

river ocean
#

i can load saves

#

you helped me with that earlier

#

the mods section is still in the options menu

#

but the mods section is empty

wheat orchid
#

What is wrong with the api

river ocean
#

unsure

real jacinth
#

well they also picked up the universal one, which I don't think is used anymore

wheat orchid
#

It isn’t?

real jacinth
#

?mods

river ocean
#

it wasnt in Outdated

wheat orchid
#

That doesn’t mean it’s still used

#

Try another one

real jacinth
#

nah it should be fine

#

it's from july

wheat orchid
#

I wonder why it’s doing this

river ocean
#

maybe my mods aren't in the right spot?

wheat orchid
#

That’s not the problem

real jacinth
#

show your mods folder

wheat orchid
#

The api would appear

real jacinth
#

and your managed folder

#

and yeah, the API should still show up top left of title

river ocean
real jacinth
#

open the mods folder

#

what's in it

river ocean
wheat orchid
#

Aaaaaaa

#

That’s a lot

river ocean
#

yes

wheat orchid
#

Also why is non mod stuff in there?

river ocean
#

theres non mod stuff in there?

wheat orchid
#

Like mono.csharp.dll

real jacinth
#

wtf is "why.dll"

#

clear out this folder

river ocean
#

ok

#

everything?

real jacinth
#

this is way way too much

#

yes

wheat orchid
#

I wanna know why.dll you have all this

real jacinth
#

just delete it all

#

and run the installer again

#

and don't install 9001 things

wheat orchid
#

lol

river ocean
#

oof ok

wheat orchid
#

At least disable them

river ocean
#

i did

#

for a lot

wheat orchid
#

How did other stuff like why.dll and mono.csharp.dll get there though?

river ocean
#

it was just there

#

ever since i opened that file

#

its been there

wheat orchid
#

What file?

river ocean
#

i thought it was just some big brain coding stuff

wheat orchid
#

Probably still is

river ocean
#

Mods, i think

wheat orchid
#

What file did you open though? Do you mean mod installer?

river ocean
#

Mods

#

under Managed

wheat orchid
#

Do you mean the mods folder?

river ocean
#

yes

wheat orchid
#

That’s a folder

river ocean
#

yes

#

done getting the mods

wheat orchid
#

How many???

river ocean
#

uh

#

that

#

probably still too many

wheat orchid
#

Yea

river ocean
#

ill just delete ones i havent used yet

wheat orchid
#

Also, how did the mono stuff appear??

river ocean
#

idk

#

it just happened

#

this enough?

wheat orchid
#

Probably

#

You can add more if it works

river ocean
#

opening

#

still

wheat orchid
#

What is wrong with it??????????

river ocean
#

i dont know

#

it worked when i initially installed it

wheat orchid
#

Maybe the modlog can help?

river ocean
#

then when i tried to reopen the ModInstaller it ran into some "unexpected issue" or something

yesterday morning the save files didnt load, but then earlier today you helped me out and i fixed that issue. the mods still worked then.

#

reinstalled ModInstaller

#

then it worked again

#

yes

#

wait

#

no i uninstalled ModInstaller

#

then I installed it again

wheat orchid
#

Well, that’s probably your problem

#

When we asked if you reset the installer with the stuff in the pins, you said yes

river ocean
#

ok

wheat orchid
#

Also it’s probably not

river ocean
#

i did reset it

#

but thats after i uninstalled and reinstalled

wheat orchid
#

Oh ok

#

Why is the api being mean?

river ocean
#

idk

wheat orchid
#

Wait

#

Try removing all mods from the folder then opening hk

river ocean
#

everything from the mod folder?

wheat orchid
#

Yeah

river ocean
#

I SEE IT

wheat orchid
#

Yay

#

I think I know how to fix it

river ocean
#

how

wheat orchid
#

Add modcommon back to the mods folder

#

See if it works

river ocean
#

only modcommon?

wheat orchid
#

Yes

river ocean
wheat orchid
#

Hmm

#

Not modcommon

#

Try adding them all back

river ocean
#

?

#

???

wheat orchid
#

Remove a mod until it works

river ocean
#

darkness mod is gone

wheat orchid
#

Repeat until it work

river ocean
#

next is Benchwarp

#

IT WORKS

wheat orchid
#

Yay

river ocean
#

adding darkness back

wheat orchid
#

Try adding seanprcore

river ocean
#

just to see if its only benchwarp

#

any idea why its acting this way?

#

i just want to know so i can avoid further issues like this

wheat orchid
#

Try doing the same combo but with seanprcore

river ocean
#

took especially long to load that time

#

ok

real jacinth
#

pretty sure benchwarp requires QoL and vasi

river ocean
#

oh it does?

#

added benchwarp, Qol, and vasi

wheat orchid
#

Add seanprcore

river ocean
#

maybe some mods arent compatible?
