Those are all the mods that are on the google drive(most actually)
no, you need to download skin folders
There are 2
I see
Idk which Grimm knight you want(probably the twp one)
Yeah
thanks again
I have a bug with the installer where I can't uninstall mods
The next time I open the ModInstaller application, they're back
hmmm, I deleted the ModInstaller folder and then ran it again and it still thinks I have bonfire installed
probably because of the same issue, I keep getting a prompt to update hollow point whenever I open the exe file
switching to modinstaller 2 seems to have fixed the issue
although I'm not sure how to update mods on here
Anyone know where to actually get mods? I already have ModInstaller and am in the process of reinstalling Hollow Knight so I can actually use ModInstaller
Or does the installer come with a mod list as the video shows
Comes with the mod list @atomic basin
Did you make a new save
Yes
Reload the save
sorry for interrupting! im on mac os and whenever i click to install a mod on the installer it doesnt do anything, and if i refresh the application then the check marks get reset. Was i supposed to add something else other than the installer
Mod installer 2(mac), mod installer 2(windows), Mac mod installer, or mod installer?
Mod installer 2 (mac)
Ok
Did you install the modding api(windows)
And did you do it while the game was off
I dont think i installed the api
sorry where is it?
On the mods list
oh ok
With the rest of the m mods
but is it fine that its a windows file? wont i need something else to open it?
The installer? yes
Hahah, is this game even still doing mods because I'm making a mod with new custom music, story, art and everything. . . If anyone can code lmk
yes
@novel bronze yes we still mod. We add custom rooms, bosses, music, more
I’ll get you a link if you want to make one
No, no I'm fine, we just need a coder
We have composers and the artists
We need a coder and story writer
Could I join(I won’t be able to do anything for a long time, just want to be there as a last resort)
@fervent lantern should work
Oh I make mods
Oh cool
We need help with a modder
Were still making the sprites so until that's done we can't do anything with that but yeye
Yeah, again refer to my message about how I am only there as a last resort since I’m in a lot of projects
Hmm it only shows an option for mods in the "options" menu but nothing else is shown
Yes
Top left of the title screen no text?

Make absolutely sure it’s your saves path
Soup are you ok
You just sent the message you sent earlier
I didn't mean to
Lol
Lmao
#archived-modding-development might be best for that
K
delete everything with api?
Yes
alright
That will fix it
I'll try installing the hp bar mod and see how it goes
oh also thank you for this
make sure you install modcommon too
Alright
Make sure you get modcommon, seanprcore, Vasi, and SFCore
Required for some mods to work
wait do i start on a new save file for it to work
Create one then reload it
when i open the modinstaller and active any mod, my hollow knight stop working
i can't acess any save or anything like that
mk
is it supposed to look like that?
The marked mods still dont save on the installer, the only one that remains is the "Modding API Windows", does it have to do with how my data only shows the application?
No
That’s just Mac
Go inside the app
Idk what’s up with the installer doing that
Some people say it does that some don’t
oh ok, do i reinstall anything?
no idea how to run as admin! i'll try restarting it
Also make sure the folder the installer is in is not the downloads folder
do i need to windows + r to open the %appdata%?
where is it supposed to be in?
Desktop works
oh ok
Other than that, I haven’t used installer 2. Been too busy making mods to download them
Ah dw! thank you for helping this whole time!!
i can't find anything called ''LocalLow''
copy paste the directory
You were put into roaming
That’s where %appdata% takes you
Either do what zal said or go out a folder and continue with the path
nevermind
i found the locallow
i just needed to press this
thank you @wheat orchid

How do I get the mod Installer to work with a pervious version of the game?
how do i completely uninstall the mod installer

nevermind i figured it out i think
I just got into modding hollow knight
I have a simple double damage mod
but I don't know where in the files to put the folder to make it work
Having some issues with Sprite Packer.
I've used GO Dump to get png files for the skin I'm using, but Sprite Packer won't seem to recognise them.
This is what my Sprite Packer looks like and what one folder in the Sprites folder it is referencing looks like.
whenever I try to launch the game(whether from the shortcut on my desktop or directly from steam) it launches it in a minimized window, waits like a second, and then closes it. Tried to check it via task manager and the first time I launch it the game shows up as one of the ongoing apps(as it should) but then I can't close it? like not even directly from task manager can you end process and when I go to steam and launch it again it gives an error message reading "there's already another instance of this application running" or something like that. I tried launching steam offline mode as well but to no avail, it just doesn't launch. The weird thing is that I was playing it perfectly fine just yesterday but it's messed up now. I've verified the integrity of the game's files via steam, deleted and re-downloaded it but still the same issue, I just can't get it to work for some reason. If everything else fails, I'm just going to format the pc and see if that helps but would really appreciate some help because I'm pretty much stuck.
I posted this in help but people said that you guys are more knowladgeable about the tecnhical stuff
idk if it should go here or in modding discussion but just tell me and ill move it
does anyone have any tips on how to tackle the beast that is the hk sprite sheets? i found someone on twitter who said they had a file where all the sprites are colour coded and prio coded but that link doesnt work anymore and i really wanna try my hand at making my own custom knight 
could you please dm me the links? i have class in like 2 minutes
You should be able to find them in the pins of one of the three Modding channels.
oki, thanks
hey so in what folder are my saves at? I want to do some funky stuff and I don't want anything to currupt

Huh, what mods were you using
Also after verifying the integrity and reinstalling, did you open the mod installer at all before opening the game?
@ me if anyone replies
Still getting this message after putting in the file path for hollow knight :(
Does anyone know the name of the gun mod?
Hollow Point
thanks
hey, i installed customknight and it isnt much of a problem, but the daughter of hallownest skin is confusing the hell out of me. one the official google drive thing i downloaded it from, the actual contents of it is just a hornet/zote hatchling sprite sheet and a 7z file. what do i do with that?
unzip it
i did but its still a 7z
unzip that
it doesnt give me the option to unzip or extract that
i dont have any unzipping software
@velvet flare guide by fireborn
if you only want the skin and don't want to change assets, navigate to hollow_knight_Data/Managed/Mods/CustomKnight and the skin folder will be there
what kind of coding do mods use
i wanna learn to code and i think that even though this would be a difficult first project it would actually have a a cool result

I was trying the hollow point mod for a little bit and tried to turn off, so that I could play my other save file. when I tried to heal on my save file, the Soul meter won't decrease but when I used desolate dive, vengeful spirit, and howling wraiths it consumes soul.
I know its a good thing but I want to play the game with only the enemy HP bar mod
did you not back up your save
i forgot and cant find the save file
but I was trying the hollow point from a different save file
not sure what you mean by this
i tried the hollow point mod from a different save file and I turned off the mod when I played my original save file
yes that messes up the save as per the readme
Bruh
the save file would turn into normal if I remove the hollow point mod?
hey uhmm
Yes?
does anyone know how to download hk mod to a mac?
Look in the pins
Np
can't tell if this also affects the desolate dive since I keep using it in a rumbling stone and it won't break
time to remove that mod and try a different save file (I hope it won't mess up)
focus
so when I turn off the mod, it still messes up the save file that the desolate dive will only work as damage to enemies instead of breaking any hidden paths?
?
Any non save file modifications will be removed by disabling or uninstalling hollow point
Also that was never removed from dd
K ima go back to Netflix now
Accidentally just equiped the VoidHeart. Any mod or trick i can use to take it off? (Btw im using inf notches and all charms mod)

hello, do anyone knows how can i see hollow knight skin challenges?
#modding-discussion pins
kk thank you
hi, i have a problem with the mod installer, when i try to run it, an error appears that say's please purchase the game (but i just bought the game on steam) and it redirects me on the steam store page of HK, it doesn't ask me to chose the directory where the game is installed, it just tells me to buy the game(that i just bought 15 min ago, any help is very appreciated
whenever i click on the "installer?" and then the "enabled?" the thing crashes
Did you ever have a pirated version @dark steppe
some time ago yes
@novel bronze wait a bit before enabling it probably needs time to download stuff
@dark steppe delete that version, follow the directions in the pins to reset the installer, open it again, you’re good
ok ill try to find any remaining files from that one and ill try again, ty very much
okay so i clicked on "installed?" and waited, but nothing happened?
Did you try clicking enabled?
then i clicked on "enabled?" and it crashed
See if it happens on others
imma tryy
@ me once you get a result. If you are on windows try doing ?I to get the first installer and see if that works, otherwise idk
im on mac
F
There was a old Mac installer in the pins somewhere, you can try that but I think it stopped working on newer operating system versions
yeah?
okok
@wheat orchid Ty I reseted the installer and it worked
@wheat orchid ....i doesn't work still :(((
Idk
@glass meteor @novel bronze is having a problem with mod installer 2 where clicking enabled? Crashes. They put the installer on the desktop, and it still doesn’t work. They are on mac. Do you have any fixes?
🙏 😫
so, the hollowpoint mod isnt quite... working with the new mod installer in the pins
are there any other mods i need to activate as well?
other than the modcommon that installs automatically?
readme
i dont know witch one to install
Which what to install?
I made the mod using the modding api @wheat orchid
Oh
, i heard the mac installer doesnt work well
honestly, imma just use the old one, it seems to work better for me rn, and can't be arsed to figure stuff out rn
@vestal rain put it in the mods folder with the other mods
?
but the actual C# script works
I downloaded the modding api off github and then deleted 2 of the example mods and editing the first one
I don't know
?
I am getting a few red lines
What do they say
on parts that I didn't even change
You are missing a reference
No it says that 2 of the refrences are unecessary
Global enums and Modding
That’s a big problem ngl
I have used mods not made them
Here:
Yeah missing a reference
what is it
I meant dll references
This
there's nothing there
Screenshot or it didn’t happen
I already sent the screenshot
K
actually nevermind
Well for me on the right there is the project stuff. All the cs files and stuff

Well that’s your problem

Yo is there a mod for getting all the maps?
@tiny bolt save editing 
lol how do i do that?
Qol mod makes it easier
But you can just look up a save editor and give yourself all maps
what Qol mod do?
But you also need to add all rooms to something if you don’t want to go into every room
It makes certain aspects of the game quicker(ex stag animations) and allows you to edit a json file that is equivalent to save editing
I’m probably explaining it wrong, sorry, just got done with playing a lot outside with my brother and can’t think since I’m tired from it
Also you need the Vasi mod for Qol to work

@ me if you need any more help with it
launch the game

In file explorer or finder or whatever it it for you
Then edit user#.json where # is the save slot number
Notepad

Then control + f
then..
Search for map
mapZone?
No
The lines will have has and map in it
If it says false, replace it with true
You will still need to map out all of the rooms in game though. Would actually be faster than save editing all the rooms in
Hey er
Guys i need some help
Im trying to make a custom knight sprite sheet, but i dont understand in which order every pose in the sheet comes.
Is there something out here to help me?
Godump
what about these @wheat orchid
Or use the pre godumped stuff
Oh set map all rooms to true
That might be really helpful
what does it do?
Might map out all the rooms
oh kool
Other one do whatever with it
So i can download already godumped stuff?

Thanks for the help
Someone
so now i just save it?
Now you can either keep Qol or not, doesn’t matter
@mortal tinsel this is what I was talking about in case you didn’t see
then when i go back in it will be there?
Thanks a bunch
Yes

Gonna go back to Netflix now, @ me and I will travel back through the terrible land of the i phone home menu to here.
Thanks for the help someone

Yeah

its not on the google doc with the discriptions fo rhte mods, I chekced
well, guess im blind
it was there all along
also, you made the rando, right?
No
ok
how do i download skins
Windows, Mac, or Linux
windows i think
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages.
Get it
Put it on the desktop
Right click it
Click run as administrator
Putting it on the desktop and running it as administrator are important for getting skins since both the mod and the default skin are downloaded instead of just the mod
Once it’s running, tell me what appears
how do i put it on desctop
Drag
im new to this stuff
Download it, then drag it onto the desktop
it wont get off the bar at the bottom
how do i take a screen shot
what is prt sc
A button on most windows keyboards that I know
its getting sent
K
here
You opened it.....
opened what
You either double clicked it or ran it as admin
The mod installer
Click on it down there and tell me what it says
@ me when you do
So you had it before this
yes
ok
ok thank you
@wheat orchid ok so i have it installed and i watched a video but i dont know where to find the skins to download them

which one do i get the skins from
?

just copy userx.dat where x is the slot the save is in
i think if it persists u just delete the mod .jsons
what happens when u open modinstaller
do you have all of the dependencies installed
that includes the modding api, modcommon, seanprcore, and vasi
delete moddingapi.globalsettings.json in your saves
delete moddingapi.globalsettings.json in your saves
this is your game files not your saves

Anyone know of a fix for hollow points hud not showing up? I’m missing some parts like the adrenaline and dagger meters.
i assume you followed the readme and have all the dependencies
Yeah
so the AK and everything works fine it's just the hud
Yeah
The text for like gas charges and stuff is there it’s just those parts of the hud
i assume you made a save without the mod, then came back tot he save with the mod on
I read what the read me said about that so I made a new save with the mod on left to main menu then went back into the save
Try completely exiting the game then going back in

how or what do i gotta download to use mods on mac?
Check the pinned message
there's installers for both windows and mac
Reminder that this probably won't work on pirated versions.
umm
Do you know what version of macos you're on?
how do i check that?
top right of your screen, there's the apple icon
click it
then click "about this mac"
Ok, that helps, because if it were catalina, I'm not certain the installer would me able to open.
just a sec
The app name should be "ModInstaller 2"
are you sure you have the right file?
This one
oh i got the wrong one
Yeah, no worries.
is the paths this one?
Yeah, but when you open the app, it should go automatically.
But if it doesn't, then yes, I think so.
The mac one, not windows.
so on steam do i just relaunch the game or do i have to change something?
What mods did you choose?
Cause some require others to run, and CustomKnight requires skins.
which ones are good/fun?
I like the charm rebalancing one.
Customknight is neat too.
If you've beaten the game and want something different, try the lightbringer mod.
It gives the knight a javelin and rebalances some bosses.
once the mods are installed, just run the game.
in the menu is there like a pop up thing or do i jump right into the game and the mods are there
What mods?
You should be able to press start, settings, and there should be a mods tab
custom knight and infinite notches
Ok, if you start a new save, go get the fury of the fallen quickly, and try it on
Heres a list of custom knight skins:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/172QgIw4oS64IjVdjpjX2xhKzO4BYC5TG

Hello
Would you mind sending me the link in the DMs please?
possibly, maybe through save editing
Can you help me if its possible?

hi
Chewy check dms
ive got a question about the mod
which one?
If I use the mod on a game save that i have alredy 100% game completition and i get with the mod 110%, after I uninstall the game and reinstall it back without mods will i still have the 110% I made with the mod ?
Depends which mods,
like debug mod and infinite notches
I think those should let you keep 112%
oh, thanks
Hey there, thanks for the update to modinstaller, works fine on Big Sur 🙂
I wanted to know tho, where do I put the custom skins for the Knight on macOS ?
~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/hollow_knight.app/hollow_knight_Data/Managed/Mods/CustomKnight/
that's a long directory
yep
run the installer, it should list the mods, then click install.
yep, that's it
reminder that the mini hornet is more than just custom knight
and is harder to install

Look through the pins
It is the pin that has a guide linked for sprite packer
I also probably should have said #modding-discussion pins
it works ,thanks a lot Someone
Np
the guide does not tell me how to fix the sprite packer not opening problem tho
:(
Windows
Ok
Screenshot where you are opening it from
Also did you put the sprites folder in the right place
No.....
Did it have any other files in the zip it was in
nope
Hmmm
Give me a min
Try just putting spritePacker and Newtonsoft.Json.dll on the desktop and run it as administrator
@ me if that doesn’t work
¯_(ツ)_/¯
because it did open once
Restarting a pc really isn’t bad
but it didnt detect my sprites folder
when it did open
so perhaps im doing something wrong
Inside it now?
yeah im in the folder
Screenshot the inside of the sprites folder?
Put all of that in a folder called knight
You put the animations directly in the sprites folder
hey wondering if i could get any help
i can't get the multiplayer mod to work. everything seems right but we cant get it to connect
@sullen zealot what are you using to connect? Ex: port forwarding, hamachi
@ me if you respond
oh do i need to portforward it? @wheat orchid
Thank you very much! didn't realize i had to do that
Np
so how does one mod the game through steam?
?i
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages.
Download it
Put it on your desktop
Right click
Run as administrator
Once it opens to the mod list, if there is a button near the bottom that says enable all installed mods, click it(name is misleading)
Also install these mods since some mods don’t work without them and alone they don’t do anything: modcommon, seanprcore, Vasi, SFCore, and weavercore but only use it for inferno king Grimm since it has a history of messing other mods up
I need help here, I just banished grimm and don't have the unbreakable charms yet
Is there anything to aid me through?
@wheat orchid sorry but ive only ever port forwarded a minecraft server so im not super experienced. once i open the port on my router, i just go into hollow knight and enter my public ip, set a password and then connect, and my friends should be able to join with doing the same thing
Set a password???
like the second line?
Also for port forwarding, the host should connect to 127.0.0.1
No
That’s the port

I’m very sorry that you are having a hard time with this mod, how about you try adding options for that then come back and complain
Sorry geez was just wondering if there was an easier way jsut to get rid of luck.
how can i put the gun mod in hollow knight?

ok
is there anything else you need to be able to get mantis gods to work?
or anything you shouldn't have?
Probably modcommon
or youre in godseeker mode, in which case you need to not be
Someone should really fix that
aight, cool, it works
so the mod installer crashed on me when trying to update customknight.
Now, even after everything else is updated, custom knight wont install after uninstalling
keeps feeding me a 0.0kb zip file and errors out
anyone have any suggestions to follow to resolve this?
Run it as administrator
can try, but other mods install fine
If the installer is broken, maybe use steam to verify game files, then reinstall mods?
CustomKnight also installs extra files
But that won’t fix the installer
That fixes the game
same error
But it's the custom knight which is broken specifically right?
Is the installer on the desktop?
already redownloaded installer as a whole too, just in case installer was broken
yes
hollow knight isn't, obviously
That and a couple that aren’t put in right
Ah k
and for me, it's just custom knight
Try restarting your pc
will do. Error if it helps

reboot, ran as admin, same error
¯_(ツ)_/¯
still feeds me a size 0 zip file on the download of 0.0 megs
try redownloading the modinstaller
already did.
try this:
- ModInstaller allows you to uninstall mods and remove the Modding API, if originally installed with ModInstaller. Alternatively, you can restore the original game by choosing to Verify Integrity of Game Files in Steam. Once finished, you can simply delete ModInstaller, as it is only an executable.
Then reinstall the mods
will try that in a minute, moving the install location back to system drive, just in case for whatever asinine reason it doesn't like being on a seperate drive
though I don't expect that to solve the problem
but it's another variable to eliminate
understandable
right, how do I get modinstaller to boot far enough to point it at the (now moved) game directory?
What?
after moving hollow knight back to teh system drive, modinstaller gives me 'could not find game files, make sure the game is installed'
which makes sense, it just got moved.
but it doesn't give me a way to point it at the new location
- My ModInstaller can't find Hollow Knight.
- The first time you launch ModInstaller, it will prompt you to set the filepath if it can't find the game. If you skipped past the prompt before, you can reset the ModInstaller's settings by deleting the "ModInstaller" folder at %appdata%..\Local
👌
👍
well. That changed nothing. other mods install/uninstall fine, customknight still errors.
Did you verify?
nope, that's next step.
it might have a broken customknight that's half installed or something
k
but as good as anything else to try
verify steam files, then install modinstaller again?
'verify integreity of game files' from properties on teh game page.
yeah that one
alright, verified, 1 file failed (I assume the one modinstaller modified), redownloaded, trying again.
same damn error
custom knight downloads an empty zip and fails to install
Told ya it wouldn’t change the installer
no, but fresh installer too

Try manually installing it from the google drive
ah yea i figured it out
manually installed from google drive
booting modinstaller results in 'custom knight is outdated'
So I tried to install the mods manually, I chose the bonfire mod. In the directory of the hk files (the ones in steam apps) you need to right click the hollow knight application and click "Show package contents". Once youre there you can see the files that you would on windows. Then you go into content>resources>data>managed>Mods folder (You need to manually add the mod folder yourself)From there you drag the dll of the mod and it worked for me.
I might've had the installer already so I didnt need to install an API. Oh and the installer worked for me after this, it saved all my options
your customknight.dll is in the wrong folder
My friend had it in the mods folder but i couldnt get it to work for me, maybe try that out
yep same
are you using the installer, the mods themselves should install through that correctly
launch the game itll be in the top left of the title screen, also will hve a loading bar at the start
can you show me your title screen first and foremost
and where did you get the game
ok so there's a pin at the bottom that tells you how to install manually, youll have to grab the api from the g-drive

Hey @wheat orchid
I really need help
My healing is completely glitched, it’s making it so I heal with only two thirds of what’s normal, even though I can’t cast spells, and the healing time is reduced by about half
@open steppe did you use hollow point at all
Is that the problem
Like uninstall and reinstall hollow point
I'm trying to install a randomiser on mac.... Can anyone help me?
installers in the pins
Where can I get the mods?
when the modinstaller prompts me to input the hollowknight file path, there's no steam folder?? (on a mac)
installer
Same for me
so when it asks you to navigate to your steam folder it doesnt show up?
yep
can you show me
and where is steam installed at
Wait... It says that I need to install mono, but when I re-open the mod installer, it just closes
the only place steam shows up is in applications
and without a steam folder, just the shortcut
are you sure you have the right installer @icy swallow
Nope
I re-downloaded it and got it
which folder do I select?
the one with the save files?
what did it ask you to select
the application

well you want to install a mod so the button that says install lol
