I was starting a boss fight in god home and suddenly lights went out and when it came back that was there
So I’m guessing the pc lost power while it was saving?
yes

Aaaaa Dyno has a new pfp
This is very illegal
Wait what
Anyway, have you gone to the save files path in file explorer @rustic junco
Ok
Move user1.dat to a safe location in case there is a way to recover it
Then rename the most recent user1.dat.bak file to user1.dat
Then open the game and see if it’s fixed
Np

It’s going to be at least a bit before you last saved, so you’ll have to redo a bit of stuff, but at least you have it
every thing is there where they should be

Ok so I downloaded debug mod so that I can respawn right before hive knight. The debug menu was there when I opened the game after installing it and it says modding api and debug mod in the top left of the home screen. But I can't bring the menu back after hiding it and I tried setting a respawn point with f7 but it didn't work. (nevermind I'm dumb Fn+f keys worked)
i removed the mod and i still can't heal...
Um
yeah but i removed it
do i need to put it again?
It saves stuff to your save file
I thought if I asked a mod theyd be able to help
ohhhh
sorry
Wrong type of modding
Np
yeah i remember it modified things
It’s fine
so can I fix it?
No
I-I didnt know...
Well
but I do need help eith this too
You can try re installing it and saving with it.
like modding the game right?
Ok
the hollow point mod right?
Yes
ok gonna try that
I wanted to see how a backer boss idea I made would actually work and I was thinking of modding the base coding from the silk song demo in order to make a demonstration of the boss
Ok
If that makes sense
You can make custom bosses pretty easily
Just need a GameObject with animations, then you can either buy playmaker to do it the way tc does it, or do it completely through coded monobehaviors
You know the Joni's blessing charm?
Yeah
I was gonna make a boss that makes all of your hearts into lifeblood for their next attack and all the health you lose is a permanent loss for the rest of the fight
Because Im a jerk
:)
That sounds cool
thank you for the help
I had a similar idea for a boss I made(modified hive knight into lifeblood) but couldn’t figure out how to do it at the time
yeah its a hard thing to work out
but like the thing is
the backer boss I made would have to be part of an added dlc
which makes it a little weird
but I coded the basic fight without the lifeblood
and its REALLY fun
Awesome
its really fast paced and its REALLY hard
and it has 5 attack phases
which is why it should be in an added dlc
Btw here’s something really helpful for new modders, and has some stuff I keep going back to too https://radiance.host/apidocs/
Awesome
Thank you so much
if they add it in I promise to make it known that you helped
:)
I got money and I was gonna put it towards backing silk song
Well I didn’t really help
Well I have no idea how to mod well so you did help by giving that link
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Aight
Ok so it worked, i can heal, but one heal is the equivalent of 1 ammo
like i heal using no soul almos
Yeah
Just gonna have to deal with that till I make that save fixing mod I planned
I’ll start development when I get home from school
Oh wow! Thanks
Damn
Np
That’s pretty OP ngl
Yeah
i need some help so my monitor ratio is 1:1.5 and my resolution for my monitors is 1280 x 1024 at a refresh rate of 60hz and my hk settings are set at the right res but it’s still got large black bars on the top and bottom i think it’s cause of my aspect ratio any help? (i’m just copy and pasting from help cause i was told to go here)
(Sorry, it's because we aren't technical)
afaik hollow knight only supports 16:9 aspect ratios
oh ok so i’ll just have to get a new monitor oof
my friend cant open hollow knight mod manager, it just gives her this error, we've tried resetting the launcher, uninstalling and reinstalling both the mod manager and hollow knight, and it still just gives us the error
we also verified integrity of the game files on steam, and made sure both the mod installer and hk were on the same drive
Hello
I need help
I played with the debag mod for fun and because of some bug, now my clean nail has 20 damage instead of 21.

How do I uninstall mod installer 2? because steam had to re-install hollow knight and the game is not working properly because of the mods.
I already tried verifying integrity of the game files, but after installing a mod, the game broke again, so I had to verify the integrity of the game files again.
Is there a mod that makes you kill the bosses in the Pantheons quick even if you choose all the bindings?

I can advise you to debug the mod, but I warn you that a bug may occur due to which you will walk either with a nail of level 20, or with level 26. Actually, I addressed this problem, but thanks to responsive and kind people, I was able to solve this problem.
thank you i went and got a new monitor and now it works great
Do I install of the things that are shown when you type ?mods
no, you use the mod installer, which is linked with the ?mods and ?i dyno commands
I am installing mods manually, does the drive folder not include the API and modding common?
nvm
where is ModLog.txt? Benchwarp failed to load and idk why
Ok thank you for your help
how does the multiplayer client work?
hi, I'm having trouble installing ModInstaller on the gamepass, could someone help me? I'm Brazilian :[ I'm sorry for the terrible English
are you doing on Xbox or PC? because you can't do mods on Xbox
PC
can't do mods on gamepass
I saw some people teaching how to use the mod in the PC gamepass, however, the video was in English and I'm Brazilian, I can't understand it properly = [
you cant
i'm using google translator =´[
you still can't mod that version
because?
you can't overwrite the file permissions b/c they're at a permission level higher than admin, controlled by microsoft
=[
so you can't change any files, ergo.... you can't mod the game
ok, thanks
Where was this?
@novel bronze where did you buy the game
@late vortex get seanprcore and modcommon since bench warp requires at least one of them to work
steam
the installer shouldn't be put with the game files. just put it on your desktop
probably can't find it b/c you're putting it too deep in the file structure
the mod installer app is just on the desktop yeah
how can you equip the gun i have the mod.
readme in the game files
I looked at it but i dont undersrtand
@mighty iron tap focus
i did its not working
Do you have modcommon
@mighty iron are you sure you are tapping it and not holding it
Im having trouble with the custom knight mod, im dragging the files into the Custom Knight mod folder but when i choose my skin its still the default knight. I may or may have not screwed the files of the game though im not sure
@dire tiger screenshot the inside of one of the skin folders and the path to it
Does anybody mind sending me a sprite of a sawblade?

i tapped it
i tapped it bust it casted a spell
@mighty iron then you are pressing quick cast instead of focusing or you are missing modcommon or hollow point
alright so i downloaded the modinstaller, the mod i wanted (customknight) and modcommon because my friend said he had it downloaded and it worked just fine. I open hollow knight on steam, there was a few moments of the loading thing (the ghost running in the bottom right) before the loading thing froze. Then, a white bar came up in the center of my screen, where a grey bar grew out from the center, reaching the edges, and "hollowknight.exe has stopped responding"
please, i just want to look like zote
@vague pebble are you using a controller
Unplug and plug in at title screen
Im using fast cast

I cant click on it do I have to install it first
yes
Ok

It installed for me I believe but I will if it didnt
Does this work with controllers
idk how to equip it i pressed quick cast doent work
Yes
i did im on pc
Then Im not sure Im skimming through the note pad
but it doesnt work
Ive got a few mods selected do I just launch the game on steam now
How do I change class
nvm I reloaded and got the AK
how do i reload?
ik but how do i equip it?
tap focus/cast
i did it doesnt work for some reason
Try disabling and reenabling the mod?

Im not sure
did you make a new save
I didnt
no
do you have modcommon?
yes
What does bonfire mod do
just an FYI, the mod doesnt work on a new save file, you gotta quit then load the save again
ik

ye
cant switch
try tapping the focus button
i did
nothing happened?
yeah
does the UI have -999999 on it
aight
How do I heal in hollow point
keep shooting shit
fill those 3 circles
once you fill those 3, keep damaging enemies, then youll keep automatically healing
its all in the readme
Ok I read that I filled all 3 circles but nothing happened I didnt know I had to continue
yeah keep damaging
basically you dont need to manually heal anymore
just keep shooting
Ok
Is there a way to download/uninstall mods for Hollow Knight using the Xbox version of it? [The Xbox thing on PC, not console]
Please @ me or DM me when you can, I've gotta go to bed.
no
o h
if you're talking about gamepass, most likely people will say no but maybe uwpdumper could work
uwpdumper?
to fix the permission issues on the folder, but I haven't tried it I don't have the game on game pass
yeah no idea I just know it's a thing
does a version of debug mod exist for lifeblood patch?

Ok so does anyone here how to fix a bug, where even if I go fullscreen on steam, and open hollow knight with my dualshock4 controller, it still doesnt work?
Try plugging your controller in after the game starts
already done it, doesnt work
when i started it with steam it said
controller connected, then I went into the game and i couldnt use it
i tried plugging it in in-game and it still didnt work
like it would connect
oh wait
maybe i can try something
hi, i dunno what did I press in the debug mode, is there anyway to reset to factory settings ?

navigate to saves directory, delete debug.globalsettings.json
not the .bak tho ? just the .json ?
i can still try one thing more but i dont think it will work
Ok maybe I did something
But my pc froze
Nice
Ok so:
I tried opening hollow knight once again and realized that maybe I need to put on the accessibility settings
So I do it, go open hollow knight qnd my pc freezes
I turn it off, turn it on and try again
It freezes another time, and now I will try removing accessibility settings
@mighty iron tap focus not quick cast they are not the same thing
@still marsh you can just run modinstaller 2 without wine or mono tmk
hi im new i have a query can mods be installed on mac?
thanks
wait what
Ok now it’s fixed, but i can’t use the controller (I removed the accessibility settings option)
No idea.
nesquack was talkin' about it earlier
@modern slate here
Hello, i am playing online with my friend, but we see each other immobile, we both went on the same hamachi thing, after that I hosted the server, said him my IP and everything, then we could see each other but not move
@still marsh did you get the Mac mod installer 2 or windows mod installer 2?
@proper salmon make sure the host connected before anyone else starts hk. If it still doesn’t work then try swapping hosts
still doesnt work
wait maybe the host needs to connect to the server?
like he connects to itself
what is the save file called?
@proper salmon yes they need to connect to themself.....
@low birch which save file? Slot 1, 2, 3, or 4?
1

I tried downloading the Poorly Translated mod (with ModInstaller and not ModInstaller 2 if that changes anything) but it said there was an unhandled exception
you can just go rename it in the game files
and it'll work
it downloads it, but it's a .dll that's named a .zip
Someone should really fix that
hey, you're someone
I'll try that now thanks
so just rename it to a .dll
or download the poorly translated mod from the google drive and use the manual install button on the installer
it worked thanks man!
Ok so
my friend cant find save files
like
he goes on %appdata%
but he cant find LocalLow
idk a lot about windows so
you can also just copy the whole path into your address bar
and it'll take you there
i already succeeded but now the installer closes when i select the path :c
what os and version are you on
Mojave 10.14.6
and what installer
k
Hi, im having problem with the multiplayer mod, we are both using hamachi, we both have installed mod common, friend has multiplayer server, i have multiplayer client but when i try to join nothing happens. I'm putting a correct address and port
yep we tried that too after i sent that message
port should not change from default
and host needs to connect to themselves first, before any other clients turn on their game
working thanks!
is randomizer v3 not available from the drive?
why not use the installer
i'm on linux. the installer gets me the api but does not open the window I am familiar with. it just downloads the api over and over
(run with mono ModInstall.exe)
the only problem we have now is that the movement is not syncing at all
like i see hes sitting on the bench
even though he is in totally different location
same goes for him seeing me in 1 place the whole time
clicking ok closes windows and then restarts the download
did you try the pinned installer2
let me check
okay disabled some other mods
fixed that he can see me moving
but i cant see him moving
Rando is not showing any options.
also Hollow Point says read readme but it doesnt install one. (im using ModInstaller2 for mac)
alright, using wine (64 bit) and the new installer seems to have worked. thank you. I may return if I have more questions
@summer prism make sure to have the host connect before anyone else starts hk
@tight iris missing Qol
Randomizer 3’s requirements are Qol(and by extension, Vasi), modcommon, and seanprcore
Oh yeah, you need to let hamachi if you are using it and port 26950 through
yeah, so start a new save
how can you see the UI
of what
hollow knight
my cast doesnt change the weapon
that is my heal button
they are
show title screen
Its bad quality
Okay.... Well first off, screenshots exist
And second, this is way way too many mods
Ye ill disable some
my pc doesnt do screenshots on this game for some reason
i reduced the mods
click in the window of the game and press alt+prntscreen
then just ctrl+v in discord (requires discord on pc or web)
Hey doods, I'm having a bit of a weird problem at the moment.
Some mod somewhere has changed my music I think?
Does anyone recognize this music?
https://clips.twitch.tv/ApatheticAltruisticNeanderthalSeemsGood
Mods Installed:
'Art' Mods
Benchwarp
Custom Knight
Mod Common
Player Data Tracker
QoL
Randomizer 3
SeanprCore
Vasi
from that list i guess it would be the 'Art' mods, because nothing else changes music, i just have no idea with the 'art' mods
Hmm, I will have a peruse
can anyone help me download daughter of hallownest? it seems like its more than just a skin so im not sure if customknight is enough, it evidently seems to change some dialogue and stuff too? and theres a lot of stuff in the file. any help would be greatly appreciated
the best thing to do is just unpack it and put the skin in, if you dont want the extra dialogue.
i do want the extra dialogue, a bit confused i guess
Are you using ModInstaller?
oh, i dont know how to do that kind of stuff.. sorry
Because it mkaes things much easier
i am
If you're not then it should just be a .dll file you put next to your other mods
my hollow point doesnt work what else do i need other than modcommon
@sand tide replace your hollow_knight_data folder with the one in the download
Perhaps back up the other one
thank you!
Yw enjoy
it dosent switch to the gun when i tap focus
Just reposting this, because it seems like a few more people showed up.
Does anyone recognize this music?
https://clips.twitch.tv/ApatheticAltruisticNeanderthalSeemsGood
Trying to change it back to default, not sure whats changed it.
idk
Try without blackmoth?
okay
That is the regular music actually; the hwurmps get some undeserved Drama
i pressed it when i disabled blackmoth it still doesnt work
Idk then, it was just a theory
Yeah, this is default
@limber egret they were talking about the skin not the mod
Probably should have done that as a reply
any mods i need to disable?
@mighty iron you are sure you are tapping focus and not quick cast and you are sure that you aren’t starting a new save
Well you’re doing something wrong since it works for literally everyone else
i think i need seapr core
@mighty iron you don’t
@still marsh try Mac mod installer 2 maybe?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
”magic”
So I installed mods and found I couldn't fullscreen the game, so then tried to delete all of the mods to return it to normal but I can't seem to return it to normal even though it says ingame that I've deleted all the mods
Nvm I fixed it
@tired steppe you need to delete the ModdingApi(the thing that changes the game to load mods) for that to go back to normal
how do you access the spoiler log after starting a rando / are you able to access it still?
i'm big confuse

@dreamy berry game files path in the bot message above
what
Try using 2 since it needs more testing
i am extremely confused
I was answering that question you asked, where is the hollow knight folder
I didn’t mean what I said in a rude way either

so i have the thing downloaded and all of that and when i click the find hollow knight thing nothing appears
and i have to search for it manually
i cant find the app data file and that
You can find with windows run
so how does it work
now i got this
trying the other installer, what to do if this comes up?
@digital copper where did you purchase hk?
lol. that notification is for going back to no mods
i see
Oh hi! Question... Im trying to install the HK ModInstaller 2 on my mac but after I choose the file location of hollow knight it just quits and nothing happens... Am I doing something wrong?
Where is the installer on your pc
In a random file in documents
Try putting it on the desktop
.. Hm no its still the same thing..
Oh it worked! Thank you!
guys i really need help, does anyone have a mod that makes your player invincible? im really bad at the game so if you have a mod or something please tell me
debug
is that the name?
yeah
ok thanks
Is the Hollow Point mod safe to use? I'm worried that it will mess with my files. If I use it on a new file and it gets messed up will it effect other save files I haven't used it in
does the readme not work for you
Backing up your save is highly recommended
I dont know why my focus/cast doesn't switch between gun and nail*
do you have modcommon
Yes
I think hollow point messed with my heal animations, im healing 4 masks per second
did you start a new save without hollow point then go back into it
yes this is outlined in the readme that it messes with heals
unless you save edit it
you can download any old 112% save from speedrun.com/hollowknight tho
Im using a old save file
ty
Im using a old save
try makinga new save without the mod enabled then going back into it with HPoint enabled
Okay
did you get the game through steam, nonamed
did it say 1 file failed to be acquired
Sometimes yeah
if you wanna revert to vanilla launch the game when ti says that
thats what i have to do
yeah, moddingapi is just a modded version of https://i.imgur.com/7OZcFc6.png
iirc
so it just acquires the normal one when you verify
also i ASSUME you can just rename this and it's good to go https://i.imgur.com/x8iB6ni.png
but i could be wrong
steam way is also just always accurate
i tried doing that but my mod wont work still
Is anyone on that could help me troubleshoot a Custom Knight issue?
The mod works and the game loads, but I can't switch skins. I was wondering if this was an issue with the skins themselves, or if its just me not having another mod thats needed loaded aside from just Custom Knight
All of the folders in the Custom Knight mod folder lead directly into the sprite sheets and I haven't renamed any of them, so I'm not exactly sure whats going on
Did you put them in the right folder?
When I try to turn a mod off it, the mod installer 2 crashes, anyone know why?
This is what I can capture in the command line before it crashes, if this helps:
you dont have modcommon
you don't have modcommon
Alright, thanks
I'll enable that and see if it works
I didn't know if modcommon was needed for custom knight
Works flawlessly now, thanks for your help! @west bane @real jacinth
Are you able to have mods on the windows store version of hollow knight?
I got it on pc with game pass
Hey does someone know if you can mod the game with the microsoft store version?
im pretty sure no,
and i think its a no to that aswell
Oh ok, thank you
@keen radish correct on both of those
hell yeah
Hi, I'm new to the server. I'm having some issues with my ModInstaller. It worked well first but then one day when I was playing my game crashed. And then we I came back my saves were loading forever ( just like the pic). So I deleted everything related to modding API and then my game came back to normal. But everytime I want to install it again my saves still keep loading forever. Any solution to this issue ?

Ok, gonna try it rn
Ok so I deleted it but it's still the same thing. Also what bak are you talking about ? There's a ton of them
moddingapi.globalsettings.json and moddingapi.globalsettings.json.bak
if you don't have file extensions on, your moddingapi.globalsettings.json.bak will appear to be moddingapi.globalsettings.json
so you probably deleted the wrong file
Yikes. Well, how I can get the file extensions ?
Oh ok lol. Thanks, I will reinstall the modding api and try to delete the right file
Does anyone know why HollowKnightRandomizerTracker would be throwing these?
fixed it, nvm
Happy hollow-days to all the cool modders

after you benchwarp just pause then unpause
how do i get the grimm knight not in the drive?
Anyone else have consistent infinite load on THK room with benchwarp on, or know how to fix it? Happens every time, I have to restart the game and sometimes even disable benchwarp to get it to work. I have already enabled reduced preloads in benchwarp settings.

guys where can I download modinstaller? wanna be sure I am right coz the one I'm downloading now says it's virus
well I didn't notice the button on top of discord. Sorry!
I have a very odd problem, i am doing too much damage (like on hitting gruz mother etc.) I tried reinstalling the game but this did not help. My first thought was: the debug mod, but after uninstalling the mod and deleting the .jason file, i am still doing to much damage. Can somebody help me?
if you have the QoL Mod:
- go to save files
- locate
userX.json(with X being the save slot number from 1 - 4) - ctrl+f "nailDamage"
- set the value to the corresponding one from https://hollowknight.fandom.com/wiki/Nail
if you don't have the QoL Mod: - https://bloodorca.github.io/hollow/
- go to save files
- locate
userX.dat(with X being the save slot number from 1 - 4) - upload that to the website
- ctrl+f "nailDamage"
- set the value to the corresponding one from https://hollowknight.fandom.com/wiki/Nail
- download encrypted (PC)
- rename it to the original name (will be downloaded as
user1.dat, rename if you want slot 2, 3 or 4 to be edited) - put it back to the save file folder

Hello i have a problem. I installed the uuwuu mod and it not only doesnt work but it also broke my uumuu fight. I want to try doing him on radiant difficulty but i cant even enter the attuned ot ascended battle.
The problem lies in the save file because on other saves it works normally. Does anyone know what to do?
If i could at least read and edit the save file i could just change the line that says "completedTier3: false" to "true" just like i did with the .json file but i cant do the same with .dat file
What's a good way to get the Demon Slash Skin ?
@pallid stream wdym the mod doesn’t work? Also I fixed that bug in the new version of Uuwuu but it was never put on the installer and it has a new dependency because it adds a journal entry.
Also the Teir3 thing doesn’t have anything to do with the problem
It’s the UsingAltVersion that you need to change to false in the save file
I’m guessing you were missing modcommon and it caused the mod not to work
Anyway here is the Uuwuu update. Use the manually install mods button on the installer to select the dll files you download from this page https://github.com/RedFrog6002/HollowKnight.Uuwuu/releases/tag/2.0.0.0
Journal Entry Update. New dependency: FrogCore. You can get it from
https://github.com/RedFrog6002/FrogCore/releases if it's not on the installer
FrogCore depends on Vasi and Modcommon, so get ...
hey uh
the mod installer doesnt work for my pc
is there a way to manually install hollow knight mods? if there are then please tell me
(fyi, no, i did not pirate the game, i can even send a screenshot to prove it)
nevermind, found something at pins
@wheat orchid Okay so i dont know what i did exactly but now it works. The mod was installed long time ago and it wasnt the newest version so the bug you fixed recently was still there. I also dowlnoalded the SFCore.dll which i dont even know if its necessary but THE MOD WORKS. Thank you for help 🙂
Yeah SFCore is necessary for the added charm. Glad it works
Aksu skin has a problem

I downloaded the custom skins mod but now I cant hear any sounds in the game(all the audio options are on and my headphones are working properly)

@zinc comet what’s the problem?
I see the GUI on the left to change my Custom Knight skin, but I can't click on anything
Get the modcommon mod
CustomKnight needs it to work
Or: remove the moresaves mod since it bugs other mods
i have the modcommon mod
What other mods do you have?
Screenshot the inside of the skin folder you are trying to switch to
@ me when you send it
Theres a folder called the skin name, then a folder named custom knight inside of that folder, which has all the skins
should i remove the first folder so its a direct path
@wheat orchid
The knight texture don't change
@tulip sand can you include the file path on that screenshot?
The soul thong and masks do turn to what they should, but not the knight and the attacks
All of the skin folders need to have the png files directly inside them
CustomKnight folder > skin folder > png files
Otherwise nothing is read
Welp it's already like that
@zinc comet screenshot the inside of the skin folder
I was talking to howdy
You need to have the image files one folder up
So they're in the folder with the name, not the one named custom Knight
how, my bad 
so just copy paste them all
the nail arts I suppose
There is no Knight file
Does that image just have loads of images of the Knight doing different stuff?
But there isn’t a png file specifically for nail arts
If so just rename it Knight
I think it’s the knight spritesheet but everything is transparent except the nail arts
Yeah, cut them, then go up a folder, paste, then delete the now empty folder
👍
Now I have the nails arts but no knight
Yeah
The skin author did a stupid
You need to copy the original knight spritesheet, edit the copy in a picture editor(paint 3D works) and insert the file from the skin folder on top. Then save it. Now use the edited knight spritesheet instead
Stuff like ms paint doesn’t work because it has no transparency
my mod installer says that is unable to locate game files
then i click ok, and the program close
Where did you purchase hk?
Steam
Look in the pins for how to reset the installer then follow those steps, make sure the game is installed, then try again
ok
my game doesn't have sound after I downloaded CustomSkins Mod
it worked, thank you!
@stable mountain unplug the controller until the main menu after restarting hk. Also it’s CustomKnight not CustomSkins
I play with mouse and keyboard also thank you for the correction

Go to your save files path and delete all files with ModdingApi
Is there supposed to be a file named "saves" or something like it?
userX.dat (x goes from 1 to 4)
How do I make a custom knight?
can't seem to find a file name that resembles it
@stable mountain screenshot. You probably went to the game files path instead of the saves path

How do I use MoreSaves mod?
I just installed it for the first time and my save select screen says "page 1/2" but I have no way of going to page 2

Oh thanks
I deleted the save files that had ModdingApi in it but the issue still persists
show your title screen
and you sure it's not just a OS issue
where you muted it in windows mixer
or it's coming out a different audio source
things can be set to different audio outputs
even if something else still has sound
my default device output is my default headphones
it is set to that
I had sound coming today before I downloaded the ModdingApi
i need help with multiplayer
me and my friend can't connect each other
we're using hamachi, too
i'm the server, so i created the hamachi network
the ip is correct but it don't connect

yay
default is 26590, right?
Yes
950?
26950
Hmmm
