If it doesn’t work again, make sure not to restart hk until you send me ModLog.txt located in the save files path

velvet coral
#

oh, ok

wheat orchid
#

That applies to both of you

velvet coral
#

yes

wheat orchid
#

Gtg. Ping me once you send them so I don’t forget

reef blaze
#

my friend had to leave

novel bronze
#

I think I broke MoreSaves

#

I disabled some other mods and now MoreSaves isn't working at all

#

And MoreSaves doesn't have a help file that I can use

velvet coral
#

@wheat orchid hey, i'm baaack

#

it don't work again

#

i will send the modlogs

#

me and my friend

novel bronze
#

What the fuck? I deleted every file and redownloaded the Mod Installer and somehow it still refuses to let me start over with a clean slate.

wheat orchid
#

@novel bronze pretty sure it needs modcommon to work. Also it messes up other mods, so I advise not to use it

#

@novel bronze ?

#

Wdym

novel bronze
#

Mod Installer kept refusing to let me uninstall any mods (this is my first time trying mods)

wheat orchid
#

Are you using mod installer or mod installer 2

novel bronze
#

I'm using the one from this channel's description, but it doesn't say anything about a 2

wheat orchid
#

So what happens when you click uninstall on a mod

novel bronze
#

It acts like it uninstalled properly

#

But the next time I reopen Mod Installer it's still there

wheat orchid
#

It’s like this for all mods?

#

Have you tried running the installer as administrator

#

Also is the installer on your desktop

novel bronze
#

No it's in D:/ProgramFiles(x86)

wheat orchid
#

Why there?

#

Strange place

novel bronze
#

Windows won't let me save it to just normal ProgramFiles

#

Apparently I don't have permission for that

wheat orchid
#

?

#

Why can’t you just put it on the desktop?

#

First try running it as administrator

#

Then if it still doesn’t work, put it on your desktop and run as administrator

velvet coral
#

hey

wheat orchid
#

Hey

#

I’m reading the modlogs rn

velvet coral
#

oh, ok then

#

do it in your time

novel bronze
#

Oh I didn't realize you were trying to help somebody else

#

I won't bug you anymore then

#

Hehe bug

wheat orchid
#

lol

#

@velvet coral looks like your friend is getting a error connecting

velvet coral
#

hmm

#

so he can't connect because of a error

wheat orchid
#

Yeah

#

Do they have a good connection to the internet?

velvet coral
#

yes

wheat orchid
#

I have a idea

velvet coral
#

hmm

wheat orchid
#

Make sure hamachi and port 26950 are allowed through your firewall(you can find out how to do advanced firewall settings on google or your preferred web browser)

velvet coral
#

ok, i'll se

#

my friend have to make the same thing?

wheat orchid
#

I meant it towards your friend, but both can’t hurt

velvet coral
#

yes

wheat orchid
#

Make sure both Hamachi and the port are allowed both inbound and outbound

velvet coral
#

ok

novel bronze
#

This is the only channel where I can get help with modding, right?

wheat orchid
#

@novel bronze yes and no

novel bronze
#

Okay

#

I think this time I cleared out all the modding files

#

Now I'm going to try again

#

Yes

#

It worked

high gyro
#

How do I uninstall the mod installer?

novel bronze
#

It's very complicated

#

Do you want to uninstall it so you can reinstall with a clean slate?

high gyro
#

Yes

novel bronze
#

Okay

#

Luckily for you, I just spent the last hour trying to figure out how to do that

#

The built-in "uninstall" mechanic is simply to have Steam verify your game files, so do that first

#

Then you need to go through your computer files and carefully delete all the modding files.

high gyro
#

Where will I find those

novel bronze
#

For me, I think there were some in the Hollow Knight filepath in "managed" then "mods"

#

I think there were also some in user/appdata

#

Wait a minute

#

I can go to my trash bin to see where the files were originally

high gyro
#

Thanks

novel bronze
#

So there's going to be a "Mods" folder under ProgramFiles86/Steam/steamapps/common/HollowKnight/hollowknightdata/Managed

#

There will also be a "ModInstaller" folder under Users/User/AppData/Local

#

And there will be a whole bunch under Users/User/AppData/LocalLow/TeamCherry/HollowKnight

high gyro
#

i uninstalled hk a bit ago. its redownloading. do i still need to verify integrity?

novel bronze
#

I think so

#

I don't know if ModInstaller will deactivate automatically like that

high gyro
#

alrighty. thanks

#

then im gonna try reinstalling the modinstaller from scratch

#

do i need to uninstall my custom knight folder

novel bronze
#

I'm not sure

#

Where is it?

high gyro
#

under quick access\

novel bronze
#

Hmmm

#

Are the sprite files in there?

high gyro
#

yes

novel bronze
#

Just to make sure you get everything, try taking out the sprite files and then deleting CustomKnight as well

high gyro

Sooo I got a little problem, some enemies seem to be invisible in my game. Random mobs and Oblobbles were not too much of a pain but fighting invisible Hollow Knight is just BS.
I assume it's due to a bug with a mod because it's the first time it's happened and I have played the game 4 or 5 times, but this time I have a bunch of mods installed : enemyHPbar, Randomizer 3.0, Benchwarp, QoL, SeanprCore, Vasi. I guess the problem must be due to one of those ? Does this ring a bell to anyone ?

west bane
#

verify integrity fo game files if you're on steam and just want to get back to unmodded

#

doesn't matter if the remaining mod files are around or not

west bane
novel bronze
west bane
#

you downlaoded mods that probably made permanent changes to your game

high gyro
novel bronze
#

For me there was just one folder labeled "Mods"

high gyro
#

there isnt for me

real jacinth
#

you said you reinstalled the game

high gyro
#

im opening my game to see if its modded

real jacinth
#

of course it's gone then

novel bronze
#

But if you see anything there that's obviously part of a mod, then consider removing that

high gyro
#

mods are gone and my save files are there now

novel bronze
#

Is that what you wanted, then?

high gyro
#

yes. thank you

#

i had wanted to start modding from scratch due to some issues on my pc. at least now if the issues come up again i know what to do

novel bronze
#

Sometimes when you have issues you just want to start completely from scratch

#

At least, that's how I am

#

Anyway, glad I could help! Have fun with your mods!

high gyro
#

thanks!

#

where do i put custom knight skins? i need to redownload them all

novel bronze
#

I'm not sure about that

#

I've never used CustomKnight

high gyro
#

found it. thanks

Update : he's still invisible even with all mods disabled

#

Could the mods have broken my game permanently somehow ?

real jacinth
#

no

#

vanilla issue

alpine salmon
#

Is there a way to fix this ?

real jacinth
#

cap your frame rate

#

its a VRAM running out issue

alpine salmon
#

(I shut off my PC I'll try tomorrow)

#

Ah ok

#

Is there any reason it's happening now and not during my first bunch of runs ?

#

Also it might be a dumb question but how exactly do I cap FPS ?

real jacinth
#

with an external program

#

like rivatuner

#

assuming you have vsync turned off

#

so if you've only recently turned off vsync. that could be why

#

it's also pseudo random

high gyro
#

modinstaller is working properly for the first time in weeks

#

thqank you to everyeone who helped me

alpine salmon
#

so if you've only recently turned off vsync. that could be why
@real jacinth ah yes, I might have messed with the game's settings recently. Thanks

wheat orchid
#

@novel bronze the installer has a built in thing for uninstalling mods, the revert to vanilla button, or disabling or uninstalling the modding api on modinstaller 2

#

Also there was a lot wrong with some of the stuff you said regarding uninstalling mods, but I’m too lazy to call all that out rn

steep salmon
#

I'm using the custom knight mod and everything works properly, but when I click on the skin and exit the menu the skin doesn't change, anybody know why?

wheat orchid
#

Screenshot the inside of the skin folder

#

Also do you have the modcommon mod

steep salmon
#

I don't have the modcommon mod

wheat orchid
#

CustomKnight needs it to work

steep salmon
#

Oh okay thanks

ember atlas
#

how do i find the mod consle commands?

west bane
#

mod console is used for like code implementation not console commands and stuff

ember atlas
#

oh ok thanks

ember atlas
#

with debug mode, is ther any way to reset the keybings for hiding the console?

west bane
#

dont tag mods for that

ember atlas
#

sorry

west bane
#

delete the debug.globalsettings.json file in your saves

@west bane thank you

glossy flame
#

Just checking before I screw myself over like I did with Celeste, do HK mods work on Mac?

limber egret
#

Generally you should be able to just download Mod Installer 2 in the pins and just use that.

#

If you have any specific problems, you can ask here.

#

If you're looking at speedrunning you will want to make a new install on your computer so you can have a Modded and a clean install, but I've never done that in a Mac so I couldn't help with that

glossy flame
#

cool, thanks

digital copper
#

where to get custom knight skins?

wheat orchid
#

@digital copper pins

digital copper
#

thanks

#

i did blackmoth and just died in one hit?

wheat orchid
#

Yeet elderbug god

digital copper
#

is that messing it up? sad

wheat orchid
#

Yeah

digital copper
#

i installed the custom skin but it doesn't work

#

😭

wheat orchid
#

?

#

Screenshot pause menu and the skin folder

#

@ me when you do

digital copper
wheat orchid
#

I meant inside the grimm knight folder

digital copper
#

ah

wheat orchid
#

Well that’s a problem

#

Those need to be directly inside the Grimm knight folder

#

So just select them all and drag them into the Grimm knight folder

digital copper
#

ahhhh

#

do i need to restart the game as well now?

wheat orchid
#

Probably

digital copper
#

it works 😮

#

thanks a lot

novel bronze
#

are there any methods to mod the standalone gog version (not using gog’s launcher) on mac?

vernal rain
#

?i

dense shuttleBOT
wheat orchid
#

@novel bronze you can mod both steam and gog versions on windows, Linux, and Mac. Just use mod installer 2 on Mac.

#

Not for Grimm knight tmk

#

Just wait a bit

novel bronze
#

@wheat orchid when i chose the file path the program closed

#

and it does that every time

wheat orchid
#

Hold on

#

Got a fix for this I think

#

And follow the steps 56 gave

#

Yay

novel bronze
#

it worked pog

#

thanks

shy fable
#

hey custom knight does not work

#

hello

limber egret
#

Hello

#

Can you screenshot the folder your skin is in (including the file path) and also your modinstaller

shy fable
#

ok

#

inside mods custom knight folder

limber egret
#

The folder with the actual images, and also the file path pls

shy fable
#

and the file path is

#

Hollow Knight Godmaster\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\Mods

limber egret
#

So it's

Mods\Custom Knight \ [Skin Name]\knight.png

shy fable
#

yeb

limber egret
#

Do you have ModCommon, sfCore, and Seanpr?

shy fable
#

don't have sfcore

#

unchecked

limber egret
#

Make sure you have those three and try again

shy fable
#

ok

#

the mod is instailed but when i try to change my skin it doesn't change

limber egret
#

I'm not sure then. If you have the correct mods and the files are in the correct path I'm not sure what the issue could be

high gyro
shy fable
#

wait forget one mod sorry for the trouble ganna go now bye

novel bronze
#

when i click install on each mod a check appears, but nothing happens in terms of the game being modded

limber egret
#

Are you also clicking enable?

wheat orchid
#

@novel bronze you need the ModdingApi

novel bronze
#

one sec

#

this is what the installer shows

wheat orchid
#

Click the out of date button

novel bronze
#

alright, i did that and the whole modding api window choice disappears

wheat orchid
#

Look in the m section

novel bronze
#

its there

wheat orchid
#

Try running the game

novel bronze
#

it worked! tysm

wheat orchid
#

Np

ivory aurora
#

Wait a sec

#

what's this modinstaller?

#

Mine looks different

#

is this a newer version?

ornate crystal
#

When i enabled mod common and hollow point my hollow knight was weird, basically when it finished loading it just didnt show anything, it played music though

#

Nevermind, it just loaded

novel bronze
#

whenever i’m playing with the mod api, if i open inventory i can’t move once i close it

limber egret
novel bronze
#

everything works fine until i open my inventory

#

after that i can’t walk at all

royal badger
#

i would just delete all the mods then reinstall them

royal badger
#

west bane
#

everything should be the same

royal badger
#

you have a backup so it is fine

crimson zodiac
#

Thanks guys, I'll try it

#

should i keep a backup for both? i only have a backup for my original one

#

my modded one is the 2nd one top to down so it should be dat2?

crimson zodiac

I renamed it and didn't work

west bane
#

then all your backups are correupted as well

crimson zodiac

no

#

just one of them

west bane

get rid of user1.dat. rename user1.dat.bak2860 to user1.dat

crimson zodiac
#

ok

west bane

I did it, and it became a notepad file called ''user1 (2)''

west bane

rename it to user1

crimson zodiac

Delete the old one first

Is Modinstaller 2 for Mac hosted anywhere other than this Discord? Somebody wants a link but can't use discord

west bane
#

just download it and give it to them

limber egret

is there anything for hollow knight on the steam workshop, or is it only external downloads

As I said, pins and description of this channel

broken oracle
#

i forogt the mods you need to install to get the rest ti work, could someone toss me the list?

wheat orchid
#

@broken oracle what’s rest ti

limber egret
#

You want mod common, SF core, and Sean pr

#

Also you need modding api, but that comes when you install Mod Installer

novel bronze
#

I have an issue with Debug Mod

#

Cheats isn't working

west bane
#

turn off more saves

novel bronze
#

Okay

#

If I do that, will it permanently delete the extra save files?

west bane
#

dunno, you can back them up

novel bronze
#

I didn't think of that

#

I'll make sure to remember that when I disable MoreSaves

whole folio
#

i followed the tutorial by fireb0rn, and downloaded the Grimm Knight zip file from the drive skin link in fire's description

#

i also checked out CrankyTemplar's video on the showcase to see if i could find the skin link in the description, but it was the same as the one in fire's vid, and i have no idea what to do

real jacinth
#

show your title screen and where you put the skins

whole folio
#

you mean in the file?

real jacinth
#

where else would i mean

whole folio
#

i have a second monitor, so i used it to show where i downloaded the file

west bane
#

wrong grimm knight

whole folio
#

which is the right one?

west bane
#

the one in the other folder

whole folio
west bane
#

yes

whole folio
#

which folder do i download for grimm knight, or does it not matter?

west bane
#

the grimm knight one

latent token
#

I'm having a problem where the Hollow Knight is actually invisible. I don't really know what's caused it.

#

unless it's something to do with a file the Kakyoin skin edits

west bane
#

vram, just disable custom knight

latent token
#

it's not a custom knight skin

west bane
#

what mods do you have then

latent token
#

just Hollow Point and the HP bar mods

#

well, Indie Crossover too

west bane
#

that's this kakyoin skin edits thing

latent token
#

oh, I'm assuming that it's a sharedassets file that it overwrote?

west bane
#

probably indie crossover that you need to disable

real jacinth
#

THK being invisible is a vanilla bug

#

tied to VRAM capacity, like zaliant said

#

so if your fps is uncapped, you need to cap it

latent token
#

oh, how do I do that?

real jacinth
#

an external program, like rivatuner

latent token
#

I can limit it in amd stuff, what's a proper limit?

sleek phoenix
#

so when i was testing my skin out on hk yesterday my game froze. after rebooting my pc and loading hollow knight my saves wont load. i thought this was a small bug so i uninstalled and reinstalled. it worked, but my mods wouldn't load. i reinstalled modinstaller.exe and i was stuck with the first problem. is there a way to fix this?

west bane

delete moddingapi.globalsettings.json (and bak if you want) in your saves

ivory aurora
#

Oh boy

you told them to do it the long way

#

Seems like it's supposed to work, though

#

So maybe you're right

novel bronze
ivory aurora
#

There has to be some simpler way to do it

#

Not sure though

#

You said the problem is when you try to select skins, they just aren't there?

novel bronze
#

stable mountain
#

shinel are you having problems with custom skins too?

stable mountain
#

i have a problem with it too but could not solve it

novel bronze
#

whats your problem? maybe i can help even tho i have a problem too if that makes sense

stable mountain
#

after I downloaded the mod manager my game had no sound. I ran hk as admin and it fixed it but now mod manager is not working at all

novel bronze
#

oh idk how to solve that

#

i just cant get the skins to work

#

can you get ti to work?

#

i tried fireb0rns tutorial but it aint working

stable mountain
#

it worked before i ran hk as admin

stable mountain
novel bronze
#

why did u run it as admin

stable mountain
#

i was trying to solve the audio

#

worked but at the cost of mod manager

novel bronze
#

oh

stable mountain
#

now even if I run it normally mod manager doesn't start

novel bronze
#

do you know someone who can help me?

stable mountain
#

@wheat orchid tried to help me

novel bronze
#

mk

#

did it work

stable mountain
#

no

#

but maybe he can solve yours

novel bronze
#

ok

limber egret
#

Morning what are the problems you're having shinei? You have Custom Knight installed but when you pause it doesn't give any options to change skin?

#

I have no idea how to solve the problem your having Snowy, but I can give you very basic pointers to make sure there's nothing you've overlooked.

ivory aurora
#

@stable mountain are you sure the audio is not a separate problem?

stable mountain
#

@ivory aurora the audio problem began after I downloaded the mod loader

limber egret
#

Do you have which one did you get?

#

1 or 2?

stable mountain
#

2

limber egret
#

Check for the mod called Modding api

#

Make sure it is installed enabled and not out of date

#

(Is it's out of date there will be an orange box)

stable mountain
#

yea it has an orange box

ivory aurora
#

Wait didn't the others say 2 is for mac?

#

mainly

stable mountain
#

is it?

ivory aurora
#

theres for windows, too, of course

#

but they said that if you're on windows just use the first

#

or something

#

I don't remember

#

nevermind

stable mountain
#

lemme try that then

limber egret
#

Windows it doesn't matter

#

I use mod installer 2

#

I've used both and they're both good

#

Mod installer 1 has issues in Mac, though apparently

#

Just update your modding api and it should work

stable mountain
#

I run the game in admin because of the audio problems. Will it affect the mod loader

limber egret
#

I don't think so, but I have never had to do that

ivory aurora
#

yeah, it seems too much

stable mountain
#

Well now the mod loader works

#

but the audio is gone again

faint torrent
ivory aurora
#

oh my god

#

audio gone

#

again?

#

hm

#

try to start over, snowy

#

start clean, no mods

#

make sure the audio works

#

then follow whichever guide you used very, very, closely

stable mountain
#

delete everything mod related?

#

I used fireborns

ivory aurora
# faint torrent Yes

then I believe it's simply copying the files, yes, but maybe wait to make sure with others

ivory aurora
faint torrent
#

Ok thx u

ivory aurora
#

make sure you have your cleanest version of the game

#

and then start again

#

fireborn's is the one I used iirc, went smoothly

stable mountain
#

Should I verify the game files?

ivory aurora
#

Oh, I don't know if that's necessary

#

Just make sure your game is as unchanged as possible while not ruining savefiles

stable mountain
#

ok

ivory aurora
#

Unless you don't care for your savefiles much, in which case, just uninstall and reinstall or something

stable mountain
#

If I can I want to save the savefiles

#

@ivory aurora Unless I run the game as admin there is no sound

ivory aurora
#

even after removing all mod-related things?

stable mountain
#

yea

#

Should I try the first version?

ivory aurora
#

wdym?

stable mountain
#

Isn't there another mod installer

#

The old one if it still exists

ivory aurora
#

yes, it does

#

this

stable mountain
#

@ivory aurora for some reason the first one works perfectly

Hello hello everybody, posted in Discussion as well, but it is help too :D
I was just looking at the read me for the randomizer mod and i come across this:

With these skips allowed, the player is advised to take care to not lock out of certain required pogos. Obtain:

  • No more than 1 nail upgrade before claw or wings
  • No more than 3 nail upgrades before claw

what do nail upgrades have to do with skips?
i dont get itttt

gloomy coral
#

In the game, go to settings and click mods and see if it's on or off

#

Is modding API installed?

Maybe it's a problem with the skin

Then remove the second skin and try again

To see if it's the second skins problem or not

So it seems like none of the mods work since I verified the steam files integrity. When i enable and disable mods I still see the files changing in the game folder though. Any idea what could have caused this and how to fix it ?

wheat orchid
#

I usually read all the messages I missed here but 450+ is a new record of unread messages for me and I don’t want to read all that

gloomy coral
wheat orchid

novel bronze
frosty grail
#

wheat orchid
alpine salmon
#

Yea but somehow it got fixed when I verified the files integrity

novel bronze
alpine salmon
#

But it also made my game unmodded

wheat orchid
#

Yes

#

That is what verify integrity does

novel bronze
#

indeed ;-;

frosty grail
novel bronze
#

uh............................ uhhhhh.... why do the creators of custom knight have to make it SOOO CONFUSINGGGGG

alpine salmon
#

@wheat orchid so is there a way to be able to put the mods back ? Reinstall the installer perhaps ?

wheat orchid
#

Anyway, anyone still need help

#

@novel bronze it is not confusing

novel bronze
gloomy coral
wheat orchid
#

Also jngo made the mods recent version of CustomKnight, and they have made some of the best mods I know
