[tired adder]

skjhdfkjs sorry i have
2 brain cells i dont know what this meANS

what mod on the installER

[wheat orchid]

On the installer, scroll

Bruh

I

Told

You

[real jacinth]

the installer with the check boxes.... install modcommon

[wheat orchid]

The

Names

[real jacinth]

and moddingapi

[wheat orchid]

K just loaded discord on my pc and was greeted by a delightful error and idk what it means other than discord was made in JavaScript and it failed

[tired adder]

?

[pine bridge]

@wheat orchid

[wheat orchid]

Press ok with it selected in the installer

[coarse palm]

Yo is there a mod where you can oneshot everything?

[wheat orchid]

Debug

Turn up nail damage

Or save editing

[pine bridge]

I do hope it is not to me because as it is on the screen there is no application to select with ok

[tired adder]

OK IT WORKED I GOT IT
THANKS SO MUCH GUYS

[coarse palm]

how so?
I press the button to increase nail damage but it doesnt do anything

[wheat orchid]

@pine bridge it’s fine

@coarse palm how many times did you press it and send screenshot

@ me if anyone responds

Also @ me if any of you respond

[coarse palm]

@wheat orchid

I press = to increase damage but it still remains the same

[wheat orchid]

Your nail damage is over 600

[coarse palm]

where do you see that?

[real jacinth]

nail dmg

on the left

[coarse palm]

huh

[real jacinth]

lol

[pine bridge]

@gleaming quiver it worked!

[wheat orchid]

Yay

[pine bridge]

I was stupid to try to find the application

Many thanks

[wheat orchid]

Np

[pine bridge]

Btw will it alter my saves or do I eed to try a new game?

@wheat orchid Sorry for bothering you again

[wheat orchid]

You can backup your saves if you want

It will use your current saves

[pine bridge]

I assume these are the Bak files, but I copies entire folder

[wheat orchid]

actually the .dat

just favors it for some reason

also no

rewrite the randomization yourself

then restart hk and load it again. also look in the randomization settings for bosses off

I think there is a setting for that

[swift tapir]

... no luck in using sanic to slow down the knight

@wheat orchid sorry for bother ya, but could you perhaps record a slow passing of PoP buzzsaws for me? no music, only the sound of buzzsaws

[wheat orchid]

Nah, if I did it would be terribly laggy on the pc I can use rn and I can’t use it rn

@swift tapir did you use debug too?

[swift tapir]

yes, I used both

[wheat orchid]

And you decreased/increased the time scale

[swift tapir]

I tried to use sanic for that

but nothing other than nail damage changed when pressing - or +

I dont want to slow down the whole game, only the knight

[wheat orchid]

Then you have the wrong bindes

Also no way to do that without modifying the debug code

[swift tapir]

thats why I tried to do it with sanic, as was told to earlier

[vernal rain]

@swift tapir do you have a full size keyboard, or a ten-key-less?

[swift tapir]

I would say the later

[wheat orchid]

Sanic sets it to a set value. Debug can modify that

[swift tapir]

this thing

[vernal rain]

oof, because default binds for debug have one set of +/- for nail damage, the other for timescale

[wheat orchid]

Just change the binds

[swift tapir]

but that'll slow down the entire game, right?

[wheat orchid]

Yes

[empty flame]

@wheat orchid Where can I disable the Overcharmed state or restore debug options? It seems that I had it enabled long ago and now I lost the switch

[wheat orchid]

Modify the code if you want to slow down the knight

Overcharm is in save data, changing charms should fix

Restoring debug defaults: go to save files path, delete all files with Debug in their name

[swift tapir]

ok

[cobalt ravine]

does anyone know why the QoL mod is causing this?

[wheat orchid]

@cobalt ravine get the Vasi mod

[cobalt ravine]

thanks

[wheat orchid]

No

Nothing in game

Make sure the game is closed before you do anything that messes with mods

K ima go watch YouTube now ping me if the world is dying

[fathom agate]

2 late

[wheat orchid]

Let me rephrase that

this or any discord server that I am on is dying

including the hk multiplayer help discord I own

[fathom agate]

Makes sense

[wheat orchid]

Who really cares about the world when you have an online identity to take care of

[fathom agate]

Does anyone know how do you edit in game sprites in HK?

[cedar depot]

Hello, I have a little problem with debug mod
every time I press the "A" button on my xbox one controller in automatic it seems that instead of jumping, it suddenly returns to the ground
I don't know if it has to do with the infinite jump but I don't know if you guys can help me or theres is a way to rester the mod

this is how it looks

i can move and all but this only happens when im going tu jump

that and if i have debug mod enable

there is a way to fix this?

[wheat orchid]

@cedar depot did you accidentally bind the a button to something in debug?

Oh

Yes you did

[real jacinth]

looks like set respawn

[cedar depot]

how can i change that?

[wheat orchid]

Click the white dot and press a key on the keyboard you don’t use in hk

Or reset everything in debug by going to the save files path and deleting all files with Debug.globalsettings

[cedar depot]

what part is that fale??

[wheat orchid]

What

[cedar depot]

files

[wheat orchid]

What is a fale

[errant apex]

Everytime i click on one of the skins in the top left it doesn't do anything. Does anyone know what's wrong?

[real jacinth]

You don't have modcommon

[errant apex]

thanks

[nova epoch]

Glorious Combos, what does this MOD do?

[rotund bane]

Wait is radiance host safe to download from?

[stuck ridge]

I just started modding hk (enemy randomizer and randomizer 3), but every time I launch the game this loading bar appears and the game crashes:

I have both mod common and seanpr core installed, do I need something else?

[vernal rain]

try unplugging your controller and plug it back in once you've reached the main manu

[wheat orchid]

@rotund bane yes

Why would it be linked in the official hk discord

[wheat orchid]

@stuck ridge are you missing Qol and Vasi

@nova epoch adds more combinations abilities to charms

[nova epoch]

@nova epoch adds more combinations abilities to charms
@wheat orchid tnx

[stuck ridge]

@stuck ridge are you missing Qol and Vasi
@wheat orchid I didn't installed that at first, but then I tried with both of those installed and it kept crashing

[wheat orchid]

Oh

Unplug your controller until the title screen

Done

[stuck ridge]

it worked, thanks

[stone plaza]

Hi! When I use the Custom Knight mod, all the skins (including the default one) look blurry. How can I solve this? Thanks^^

@stone plaza can you send screenshots?

[nova epoch]

@real jacinth ok

[wheat orchid]

@ me if screenshots are sent

[stone plaza]

@wheat orchid

[wheat orchid]

K

I don’t see how it’s blurry

[stone plaza]

it's like more pixelated

[gaunt skiff]

does anyone know how to heal with the gun mod on?

[wheat orchid]

Hold focus?

@stone plaza screenshot of the original knight?

@ me if anyone responds

[stone plaza]

@wheat orchid The left one is the Hollow Knight without the Custom Knight activated

the right one with the Custom Knight activated

[wheat orchid]

Idk

[stone plaza]

😔

[real jacinth]

are you sure your in game rez didn't turn down?

[stone plaza]

Nope

Actually I uninstalled the ModComm and it looked good again but when I click the skins they don't show up

[real jacinth]

yeah, cuz the mod isn't running without modcommon

[stone plaza]

What is ModCommon?

[real jacinth]

a library mod

[stone plaza]

and I need it to use CustomKnight?

[real jacinth]

yes

[stone plaza]

Oh

Then how do I fix it

The ModCommon version is 0.0.6

[real jacinth]

how do you fix what

[stone plaza]

How can I make the skins look good

[real jacinth]

they do look good

[stone plaza]

they look more blurry (the right one)

[real jacinth]

so?

[stone plaza]

idk, are they supposed to look like that?

[real jacinth]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[stone plaza]

xd

[real jacinth]

nobody has ever complained about such a tiny detail before

of a mod that's real time replacing assets

[stone plaza]

idk, just curious

[novel bronze]

what path is the right one for the mod installer

[real jacinth]

the one where your game is

[ancient galleon]

hey, so I was using the modinstaller and for some reason it's stopped working on the game. The menu when I start the game has no music and the saves are stuck in "loading" and I think it's just the mods api cause even when I uninstall the mods it's stuck.

[wheat orchid]

Are you using a controller

[ancient galleon]

yea

[wheat orchid]

Unplug until title screen

[ancient galleon]

but it happens even when I turn the controller off

[wheat orchid]

Ok

Go to your save files path

thanks it seems to work now

Infinite GEO? have this MOD?

[vernal rain]

debug

[nova epoch]

@vernal rain ok
I will test here, thanks

[fair ibex]

nobody has ever complained about such a tiny detail before
i mean, it's a valid complaint
perhaps it's not something that can be fixed easily or at all, but then why not just say that?

[real jacinth]

because I'm not 100% sure where it comes from. but it's so minor it's probably not worth fixing when the files are being decompressed, changed from people externally, rendered again, and then put back into the game real time

that's a lot of handshakes for the assets

I'm not surprised there's a small amount of bluriness that nobody has ever noticed

it's probably not even anything wrong with the mod

it's more than likely just the fidelity of the sheets themselves

[fair ibex]

that makes sense, yeah

small nitpicking on my part i guess

[uncut acorn]

are there more custom knights?

apart from the 2 pinned

[fair ibex]

just the conversation could have been "hey, the knight is blurry" "we're not sure exactly what causes that and it'd probably be hard to fix" "that's a bummer, thanks"

[real jacinth]

okay

thank you for your input

[fair ibex]

@uncut acorn there are challenge skins which are pinned in #modding-discussion , and then there's some private skins that i'd guess you would have to ask for, though they probably wouldn't give it to you

[hasty trout]

Question about the Benchwarp mod: When I watch Rando races, the runners are able to warp to the ledge above Dirtmouth (from King's Pass) after getting the Fury of the Fallen check, provided they break the wall and walk into the 'room' first. However, that location does not become available to me. Am I missing something?

[real jacinth]

it's not a selectable location

it is a hard save

the warp button brings you to the last hard save, or to the bench that you just clicked from the menu

[wise bluff]

I cannot isntall serveral mods

This error shows up

[real jacinth]

you also have to have the "nohardsaves" option turned off in QoL

that option will disable hard saves in the game

I can't read this error

[wise bluff]

Fuck

[real jacinth]

hollow knight

[cobalt hamlet]

ok so i kinda fricked with the settings on the debug mod, and i cant get the menu bar to come up again (like to add items and to give me invincibility and noclip) is there a button to get it to show up again? ive pressed nearly every button and it doesnt show up.

[real jacinth]

F1

[cobalt hamlet]

all that does is mute the sound

[real jacinth]

so you're on a laptop

[cobalt hamlet]

yeah.

[real jacinth]

that means you're not pressing F1

you need to hold fn and press F1

[cobalt hamlet]

oh

ty

[wise bluff]

Yeahh its still broken

[real jacinth]

are other mods downloading tho

[wise bluff]

Its says "Download compleete" and after that ther eis an erroe

are other mods downloading tho
@real jacinth checking

Some of them

Yeah

[real jacinth]

which mods are causing problems

if it's only poorly translated and uuwuu, just manually download those

[wise bluff]

custom knight child of light art mod

if it's only poorly translated and uuwuu, just manually download those
@real jacinth Yeah ok

Thanks for help

[real jacinth]

custom knight should work fine

close the installer and open it again as admin

it could also be that your firewall is blocking the installer

so make sure it's added as an exception

[wise bluff]

Still doesnt work

Even when I disable antivirus wihich was blocking it

[cobalt hamlet]

ok i might be an idiot but is there a mod that can spawn any boss that you havent encountered yet, because i noclipped through and accidentally skipped normal grimm so now i cant unlock the third pantheon.

[real jacinth]

no

[cobalt hamlet]

darn guess my save file is corrupt

[real jacinth]

[cobalt hamlet]

time to commit self delete file

[real jacinth]

where did you noclip

the save file is not corrupt b/c it's running

you probably just fucked up some flags in it

[cobalt hamlet]

you know how you have to gather the flames to get to NKG? grimm didnt show up when i collected the flames to get to regular grimm

[real jacinth]

I don't understand this sentence

you're trying to get to NKG, but you can't get to grimm.... but you can collect the flames, so you must have grimmchild, so grimm must have shown up already

[cobalt hamlet]

but he didnt

[real jacinth]

so why do you have grimmchild

[cobalt hamlet]

because grimm gave me the child

lol

[real jacinth]

so he did show up

did you go back into the tent with grimmchild equipped

[cobalt hamlet]

i didnt "defeat" him

yes i did

[real jacinth]

after getting 3 flames?

[cobalt hamlet]

yes

[real jacinth]

where did you noclip to

[cobalt hamlet]

that unbreakable wall in grimm's tent

the one that hides NKG

[real jacinth]

and you fought him?

[cobalt hamlet]

i fought nkg

[real jacinth]

k. well somewhere along the line, you probably didn't bring grimmchild into the tent

or it disappeared when entering the tent

or something

or you were missing a flame

but now the flags are probably fucked

so you'll have to save edit to fix it

[cobalt hamlet]

but i brought- i had all 3 flames, and i had the child equipped

nvm ill just delete the save file

was only 10 hours of my time.

[novel bronze]

I installed a couple of mods, now i disabled them and apparently i can't focus soul

does anyone know what to do

[vernal rain]

sorry no

[novel bronze]

no problem anyone

<@&328354344313421825>

[versed needle]

did you load a save state after killing thk

[novel bronze]

what

[versed needle]

That makes it so you can't heal

[novel bronze]

no i didn't

i only did a pantheon

i installed the guns mod and i had the infinite charms mod activated

[versed needle]

It's probably the gun mod because that adds weapon switch to the focus button

Might not disable properly

[novel bronze]

and then when i wanted to disable the guns mod i inciidentally disabled both

It's probably the gun mod because that adds weapon switch to the focus button
what should i do?

[versed needle]

I guess fully uninstall it for now

[novel bronze]

if there's something i can do

I guess fully uninstall it for now
@versed needle already tried

ii tried uninstalling it and installing it again

but i still had the sasme problem

[versed needle]

No just uninstall

[wheat orchid]

Can’t you still hold focus with hollow point

[novel bronze]

maybe remapping the controls will help?

Can’t you still hold focus with hollow point
@wheat orchid idk i disabled the mmodd

No just uninstall
@versed needle and, like, not install it again?

[wheat orchid]

Just disable all your mods and try

[novel bronze]

Just disable all your mods and try
@wheat orchid i already tried to

[wheat orchid]

And?

[versed needle]

I mean "disabled" mods can still do stuff, there's nothing preventing it

[novel bronze]

And?
@wheat orchid nothing channged

[versed needle]

So I would say uninstall it completely

[novel bronze]

I mean "disabled" mods can still do stuff, there's nothing preventing it
@versed needle ooooh you mean mods

[wheat orchid]

Bruh

[novel bronze]

i thought you were talking about the game lmao

[versed needle]

ye

[novel bronze]

wait let me try

[wheat orchid]

Make sure it’s on the mod installer and not the in game menu that you are disabling in, since not all mods appear in the in game one

[novel bronze]

okey

i still can't focus

[wheat orchid]

Idk

You are sure all mods are off?

[novel bronze]

i'm totally sure

[wheat orchid]

And you had hk off when disabling them?

[novel bronze]

yes

i think

[wheat orchid]

Idk

[novel bronze]

bruh

[wheat orchid]

Goin back to YouTube now, ping me if any of the hk discords I am on have a big problem

[novel bronze]

also if i press revert to unmoddeed i get this popup

[wheat orchid]

@novel bronze where did you purchase hollow knight

[novel bronze]

@novel bronze where did you purchase hollow knight
@wheat orchid Steam

[wheat orchid]

Right click hk

Click properties

Click local files

Click verify integrity of local files

Wait for files not to validate and steam to download stuff

Don’t open mod installer until you want to play mods again

Done

[novel bronze]

still can't focus

[south rampart]

Any save editors you all would recommend?

Trying to set my nail back to its first form to do a challenge

[real jacinth]

QoL

[vernal rain]

QoL or https://bloodorca.github.io/hollow/

[wheat orchid]

@novel bronze then it’s a you problem

[high gyro]

i need a reminder of how to mod skins. ive done it before, i just dont remembrer how

[novel bronze]

@novel bronze then it’s a you problem
@wheat orchid what do you mean?

[wheat orchid]

If you did everything I told you, everything mods will have been uninstalled. It’s something you are doing

Or another problem that has nothing to do with mods

I've relocated it 3 times already

how am I supposed to do it correctly?

[real jacinth]

relocated what

[quasi badger]

Hey guys, I have the mod manager, but it appears this when I press to revert back to unmodded:

But it's on the correct installation path

[real jacinth]

verify your game file integrity thru steam or gog

[lethal kettle]

@real jacinth I uninstalled it 3 or 4 times and it kept giving me errors, but I figured out that I must have the original version of the game.

[quasi badger]

How do I do so on Steam?

Wait nvm saw it

[lethal kettle]

Is there a way to use the mods with the cracked version of the game? I've bought it for my nintendo switch and finished it, but I wanted to play it again on PC, and with an AK 47...

[real jacinth]

no

buy the game

[lethal kettle]

I have it already, but not on PC. Well, that's unfortunate.

[quasi badger]

well you know what they say, it is what it is

[lethal kettle]

it is what it isssssss

[quasi badger]

it is what it isssssss

Ok it just finished the integrity check but it still doesnt work

[real jacinth]

dont open the installer again

just play

verify and play

[quasi badger]

Ah so the verify integrity disables the mods?

[wooden girder]

how do i follow that save file?

i can find game files

is that not anywhere within steam files?

i dont see anything for appdata

[hasty rain]

hey, I'm having some trouble getting Custom Knight to work. I've been following a guide on installing skins but for some reason they just don't show up (no option to select them from pause menu, even though it shows that custom knight is enabled)

[west bane]

are you on mac

if not

do you have modcommon

[hasty rain]

I think it might have something to do with this weird "duplicate" thing that happens when I install custom knight (you can see instead of opening directly into the folder with the default skins the folders repeat themselves). I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling custom knight, but no dice :/

nope, windows

and yea< i think so

[west bane]

yes

you botched the directory

[hasty rain]

how do I fix it?

this is what happened when I auto installed it using mod manager

[west bane]

well you're only supposed to have 1 of those circles so

find whichever one has the most files i guess

its probably the first one

[hasty rain]

yea, i've tried adding the skins to both but it still deos nithing

[west bane]

seeing as the second is just a subfolder

this should be your directory

[hasty rain]

i figured

[west bane]

can you do that and launch the game and see if the modding api is in the top left

[hasty rain]

add the skins to the first folder?

[west bane]

yeah just fix the directory stuff

[solar folio]

the mod installer works at the steam hollow knight??

[west bane]

yes

[wheat orchid]

Yes

[west bane]

https://puu.sh/GCpaF/a4ca0c5afd.png should look kinda like this

[solar folio]

my mod installer it isn't finding my hollow knight folder

[unborn anvil]

So, what mods does the mod intsaller that is on the description of the channel have?

[wheat orchid]

Where did you purchase it from

Mod summaries are a good way to see the list of mods and what they do

[hasty rain]

modinstaller?

[unborn anvil]

thx

[hasty rain]

that link

[wheat orchid]

If you aren’t on windows, check pins 2, 3, and 4

@hasty rain yes unless you are on windows

Wait

[west bane]

vixian are you not using the modinstaller

[wheat orchid]

I just said

[solar folio]

now it worked

[wheat orchid]

The opposite

Of what I meant

lol

[west bane]

if youa rent you should use it

10x easier

[hasty rain]

I am using mod installer

[west bane]

oh ok

[wheat orchid]

Why did you say modinstaller? Though

[hasty rain]

it just made the directories weird for some reason

[west bane]

did you fix it up and launch the game

[hasty rain]

I think so, still nothing

I know there's supposed to be an area in the pause menu where u can switch the skins but it's not showing up

[west bane]

yeah

so when you pause is there anything in the top left

[hasty rain]

nope

besides the text saying I've got mod common and custom knigth running

but no selection menu

[west bane]

can you take a screenshot

[hasty rain]

sure

[west bane]

of the pause menu

[west bane]

ok you got the modding api everything checks out there

[hasty rain]

yea

any suggestions?

[west bane]

whats inside the daughter of hallownest folder

[hasty rain]

goes directly to the image files

[spring bane]

Someone previously had this problem, and they had two mods folders they had to collapse into one or something

[hasty rain]

that might work, I deleted the second folder tho so I'll probably have to uninstall custom knight and redownload first

[west bane]

ok looks like there's more files try copying the files in those folders into your HK ones

[solar folio]

guys , how can i find my hollow knight folder??

[west bane]

[hasty rain]

u mean replacing the custom sprites into the default folder?

I tried that, it did nothing

[west bane]

well everything

[spring bane]

I think they meant the "mods" folder itself

[west bane]

so in the daughter of hallownest HK_data folder it has like 22 items

so copy those 22 items into your own HK_data folder

so forth so forth

[hasty rain]

just directly into hollow_knight_data?

[west bane]

if the directory matches yes

if anything for some reason breaks you can always verify integrity on steam and itll get all your vanilla files back

[real jacinth]

do you see the folder that says "default" in your one screenshot

do that, but with the DoH files

open up the default one to see inside it

DoH should be the same format

[spring bane]

Their default folder is not even showing up in game, so I don't think this will fix their problem

[real jacinth]

sighs this is probably another 2 game install isn't it

[hasty rain]

2 game install?

[west bane]

have you ever pirated the game before buying it via steam

[hasty rain]

nope

[real jacinth]

have you ever changed drives of the install

[hasty rain]

bought it back in like 2017 and only got around to playing it this year

i don't think so

[real jacinth]

bought in 2017, so likely yes

[hasty rain]

I usually don't mess around with the files

but I bought it on mac and when i got a pc it downloaded into my pc along with the rest of my steam library

is that what u mean?

[real jacinth]

no

i mean it's likely installed on both your C and D drives

and the installer is changing one

and you put the images into the other

[hasty rain]

I don't really understand what that means, is there another area where I should be putting my files instead?

[wooden girder]

im having trouble with the hollow twitch mod, i have everything set up but it doesnt seem to work with the twitch chat still

[west bane]

nah you're fine

[real jacinth]

go to steam, right click the game, then go to file location

write down what drive that's on

then reset the installer

and say "yes" to the same drive location

make sure it's the same

don't just say yes

[hasty rain]

it's on c, that's the same one the installer used

[real jacinth]

click browse local files

[west bane]

@wooden girder do you have some fields that say "null"

[hasty rain]

yea?

[real jacinth]

and that's still in C?

[hasty rain]

yup

same folde rI've been using

[real jacinth]

okay, then reset the installer

[wooden girder]

no, i put in the values. does it just want my name after the twitch.tv, or does it want the whole address? @west bane

[real jacinth]

Jotaro, then either your syntax in the setup is wrong, or you were modifying the wrong file

[west bane]

https://puu.sh/GCpDB/23b213debf.png

[turbid portal]

Hello, I need help... I've done the randomizer mod and my shade cloak is locked behind something i need the shade cloak to get too. (The dark tendrils down in the abyss)

Which mod in the mod installer gives me invulnerability so i can get my cloak and finish my run?

[wooden girder]

ohhhh, does it not want the oauth: in front of the twitch token

[real jacinth]

no

[wooden girder]

ahhh

probably it

[west bane]

that would do it

[real jacinth]

all randomizer locations are reachable in logic

so you're missing something

do you have duplicate major items turned on?

[turbid portal]

How would i get past those dark tendrils without the shade cloak, I thought it was the only way?

I think i have the duplicate on but i cant remember

[real jacinth]

duplicate items means that there's 4 cloak copies

not 2

so that one is probably not intended progression

[turbid portal]

hmmm then I must have turned it off because in my spoiler log Theres only one of each

[hasty rain]

ok, I reset the installer, made sure it was going to the right directory, now what?

[real jacinth]

now run the installer again. and screenshot it

[real jacinth]

do you have voidheart, joker

Abyss + ((CLAW + DASH) | WINGS) + (SHADOWDASH | VOIDHEART)

this is the logic for that arcane egg

which requires either shade cloak, or voidheart

so you must have voidheart

okay, now show me inside the mods folder of your game, vixian

[turbid portal]

thank you you rock, i forgot that void heart passified the abyss tendrils, you're a life saver

[real jacinth]

okay..... well you have too many folders

and you're probably putting them in the wrong one

CustomKnight is the correct one

no spaces

[hasty rain]

no spaces?

[real jacinth]

that's.... what i just said

[hasty rain]

I don't have a folder like that

[real jacinth]

hello?

this one

[hasty rain]

oh ok nvm

i see it

[real jacinth]

i hope so

i just drew a big red arrow to it

[hasty rain]

oh gosh im stupid

welp

found it

[real jacinth]

and inside that, should be like this

and in each folder, should be this

that is the proper file structure

and get rid of the customknight zip you have too

[hasty rain]

wait heck yea something happened

kinda

[real jacinth]

what am i supposed to see here

looks like its working

[hasty rain]

yea, I cant select it tho, might just be a me problem

[real jacinth]

did you try using your mouse

[hasty rain]

yea, it's not doing anything

[real jacinth]

show me what you did with the files

[hasty rain]

just dropped em in there

[real jacinth]

you restarted your game right?

[hasty rain]

yup

[real jacinth]

what's in the DoH folder

[hasty rain]

goes to the image files and sprite sheets

[real jacinth]

replace the dll files with these

this screenshot is in a completely different spot

this is in a zip in downloads

[hasty rain]

should I just delete the original dll files?

or will that mess things up

[real jacinth]

show me what's in the DoH folder first

the actual one

[hasty rain]

it's the same folder, that as just a screenshot I took earlier before I moved it, sorry

[real jacinth]

what else is in there

this is not everything in that spot

I want everything in that folder. don't crop it

[hasty rain]

that's the full thing

[real jacinth]

yeah, you have like none of the sheets in here

not surprised it looked like its not working

[hasty rain]

hmm

well that's strange

[real jacinth]

like i posted, you need these sheets

[hasty rain]

yea I see what you mean

I'll try a different one

[real jacinth]

you don't have any knight changing sheet in that file

[hasty rain]

yea

WAIT IT WORKED

eyyy

so it was just the files that time xD

thanks a lot, I'm not entirely sure what happened but it's working which is the most I could've hoped for :)

[quasi badger]

Does anyone have this file?

The sprite template

[safe canopy]

$500 from serena

[quasi badger]

Ive heard it was a bounty of some sort

[safe canopy]

you don't need it

the packer exports/imports them into single images with proper names

[quasi badger]

Explain? 😮

[safe canopy]

think its in discussion pins

[quasi badger]

But would this be the best way to make Custom Knight skins?
(Just wonderin)

[safe canopy]

yes working with individual sprites is much better than a packed sprite sheet

[novel bronze]

hello, recently got curious about HK modding. What tools do you people use?

[real jacinth]

computers

[novel bronze]

This made me wheeze, gdi

[real jacinth]

pins of #archived-modding-development

better place to start

https://radiance.host/apidocs

and this

[novel bronze]

hey

is it possible to generate a spoiler log afler creating a randomizer file?

[balmy cove]

hi guys I tried following the steps in the pinned comments but nothing is happening

can someone help pls

[sleek tiger]

what are you trying to do

[wheat orchid]

@novel bronze no

@balmy cove what are you trying to do

[wheat orchid]

K good talk 11/10

[solar folio]

Guys my geo It isnt apearing on the ground when i kill something and when i open chests

What can i do?

[wheat orchid]

CustomKnight

Copy and paste the Geo.png from the Default skin into the skin folder you are using

[solar folio]

Ok

Thanks

[balmy cove]

I'm trying to get the mod installer to work on macOS

@wheat orchid

[wheat orchid]

Are you on Catalina or not

If you are, use pins 2 or 3

If you aren’t, use pin 4

[balmy cove]

I'm on catalina

[wheat orchid]

Ok

Did you use pin 2 or 3

[balmy cove]

I tried following pin 3 but I dont really understand it

[wheat orchid]

Wdym

Which part

Either way you should follow that pin’s instructions

[balmy cove]

Imma try it again

[wheat orchid]

Which part didn’t you understand

[balmy cove]

ok now its opening

so now it should work or what

[wheat orchid]

Yeah, follow the rest of the instructions

Install the stuff it tells you to

Also get the SFCore mod

Similar to the other mods it tells you to install, some mods depend on it

[balmy cove]

i just have to check the right box to install them right?

[wheat orchid]

Yes

Then you can use the enable/disable box

Ping me if you have any more problems

[balmy cove]

how do i see if it worked in hk

ok i think it worked

does anything bad happen if i try enabling mods while hk is open

somhow my controller isnt working in hk

it is in steam and i can make screenshots but hk isnt doing anything

[glass hedge]

I had the same problem after installing mods

[balmy cove]

and mods that i disabled were active

[wheat orchid]

@balmy cove don’t mess with modinstaller while the game is open

@glass hedge @balmy cove both of you try disabling native controller input and see if it works

[balmy cove]

nah didnt work

[low oasis]

so the mod launcher isnt working on my game, ive tried uninstalling the game and reinstalling the game, verifying the game files, uninstalling and reinstalling the mod launcher and manually installing mods, yet the mods arent loading

i have gotten the mods to work in the past and i dont remember what initially broke it

[real jacinth]

the installer is probably working fine. what do you mean by the mods aren't loading

and send a screenshot of your installer

[low oasis]

when i have the mods installed and enabled they aren't showing up in the game

a screenshot of this?

[real jacinth]

press the blue button at the bottom

that says enable all

[wheat orchid]

@shell radish wdym it uninstalls? Provide screenshots and a better story

[wheat orchid]

Modcommon probably

[novel bronze]

ok so

about the problem i nhad yesterday

[wheat orchid]

Which was that?

[novel bronze]

ii couldn't focus soul afteer removing the hollow knight gun mod

[wheat orchid]

Oh

[novel bronze]

now i tried reinstalling the mod, enteering hollow knight, removing my charms and then log out and uninsstall the mod

now i caan focus soul but i focus soul like extremely fast

[wheat orchid]

What did you think that would do

[novel bronze]

and it costs near to nnothing

What did you think that would do
@wheat orchid idk but it did something

nnow i canm focus soul but it costs like 2 souls and i focus it in less than half a seconnd

[wheat orchid]

Well, we don’t know what exactly you have done/what has happened, so we can’t really help much because we don’t know anything about the state of your game

[novel bronze]

sorry for the typos, my keyboard is dirty

Well, we don’t know what exactly you have done/what has happened, so we can’t really help much because we don’t know anything about the state of your game

[wheat orchid]

[crimson notch]

i kinda wanna watch someone play hollow knight live

[wheat orchid]

What does this have to do with modding?

[crimson notch]

oh wrong channel sry

[thorn sierra]

Is there a way to see what each mod does without installing them?

[novel bronze]

i also uninstalled the mod menu and the mods folder from the hollow knight folder hoping it would have helped but nothing changes, so i installed it back and did turned the gun mod back on and reeopned hollow knight aand then closed hollow knight again and it started giving me this otheer soul probleem

@novel bronze by mod menu, you mean the modding api?

[novel bronze]

@novel bronze by mod menu, you mean the modding api?
@wheat orchid yes

[wheat orchid]

Idk, you probably did something with debug since it modifies a lot of save file stuff

[novel bronze]

oof

how cann i loaad a baackup i made from steam?

i mean i didn't manually copy the files, i just clicked on the backup button on steeamm

[wheat orchid]

The backup is of the game files

[novel bronze]

and how can i load this backup?

[wheat orchid]

If you did the verify stuff, it’s saves that’s the problem

Did you verify?

[novel bronze]

Did you verify?
@wheat orchid you mean thee verify integrity thing?

[wheat orchid]

Yes

[novel bronze]

you mean before doing the backup?

i did the backup before downloading any mod

[wheat orchid]

And?

Did you verify now?

[novel bronze]

now i'm verifying

[wheat orchid]

Does the same thing as loading a backup if you took it before mods

[novel bronze]

so if i just opeen the game now i shouldn't have any problem right?

[wheat orchid]

Well, the way you explained it previously, yes you will

[novel bronze]

ok

if this doesn't work, how can i load the backup?

[wheat orchid]

Bruh

I told you

Multiple times

[novel bronze]

i'm sorry, english is nnot my first languagee

[wheat orchid]

The backup will do the EXACT SAME THING as verifying the files

[novel bronze]

The backup will do the EXACT SAME THING as verifying the files
@wheat orchid oooh okay

ii still have ethe same problem

[wheat orchid]

Then it’s something in your save files

[novel bronze]

isn't there a way to like manually load the backup

[wheat orchid]

Ok

I’m

Going

To

Repeat

This

One

More

Time

The BACKUP will do the EXACT SAME THING as VERIFYING

[novel bronze]

oh

okay

[woven vale]

Hey does anyone have the Pale King custom knight mod, I can't find it in the google drive links.

[wheat orchid]

No

It was a challenge skin

Was taken down

[woven vale]

Why was it taken down?

[wheat orchid]

Idk

Author removed the time limit for it

Then took it down suddenly

No one will give it to you

If you find someone who will ask for payment, probably report them here

They shouldn’t be doing that

[woven vale]

big sad

was a good skin

[wheat orchid]

Yeah

Was hard challenges though

[fathom agate]

@wheat orchid my pc wont let me open the file

[wheat orchid]

I already told you how to fix it

[woven vale]

sounds like smartscreen got you

[torpid shale]

Hey guys i got a quick question about the soul orb. Most skins have it so that when the main orb is filling up it has the orignal orbs pic. But in some skins that, i can see this has been altered. Would love to know how it's done.

[wheat orchid]

Wdym changing how it is filling up?

I know you can change the picture of it full

[spring bane]

Some skins, like the halloween one, have the part-full image changed too

[torpid shale]

Like the soul orb doesn't have eyes while its mid way filled

[spring bane]

I also would like to know this.

[wheat orchid]

Hmm

We won’t know until we obtain one

[torpid shale]

Well there's one skin that has a different skin while the orb is mid way filling up called the infected knight

[wheat orchid]

Aha

Hmm

That uses the normal sprite sheets

[torpid shale]

But i couldn't find anything different about it

Wdym?

[wheat orchid]

What you said

[torpid shale]

Wait one sec lemme grab a ss

[wheat orchid]

Can you show me a pic of infected part filled

I can’t rn

[wheat orchid]

Oh

[torpid shale]

Yea there it is

[wheat orchid]

It seems to be a single image of the eyes, so it either is the eyes are holes in the white or the eyes are a image on the sprite sheet

[spring bane]

did not realize scion did it 😮

[torpid shale]

Ooo i see i kinda understand

Thanks for that!

[fathom agate]

@wheat orchid my game just wont open

hollow kight

[wheat orchid]

wdym

where did you purchase it and were you able to follow all my instructions

[fathom agate]

steam and yes

[wheat orchid]

ok

so the only mods you got were hollow point and modcommon?

[fathom agate]

my smooth brain didnt download modcommon

[wheat orchid]

lol

[fathom agate]

[wheat orchid]

yes

[fathom agate]
