[arctic hill]

[wheat orchid]

go on, tell me

[west bane]

@vagrant stratus 🙂 can you help out with this @arctic hill guy

[limber egret]

Is this an at mods sitch?

Oh you did <_<

[native mortar]

its not our problem if you pirated it but dont like blame us for it

[vagrant stratus]

What did he do?

[west bane]

spamming / being a nuisance

[arctic hill]

spamming?

[wheat orchid]

pirated hk and appearantly we are the bad guys

[arctic hill]

woah bud

[native mortar]

it was minor spamming

[wheat orchid]

yeah

[idle osprey]

that was pretty minor

[wheat orchid]

only minor spamming

[idle osprey]

no actions needed to take imo

[night sail]

even the hollowknight modding scene as a jungo

[wheat orchid]

nothing like the worst ive seen :(

?

[limber egret]

It was mainly the being rude bit

[west bane]

i hold this channel to stricter standards since that's why the greens don't come around here more often

[wheat orchid]

k

[native mortar]

sooooooo anyways i want a skin where do i get one/what do i do

[wheat orchid]

fireborn has a tutorial

[native mortar]

oh right i think i knew that

[wheat orchid]

lol

[idle osprey]

that was quick, next up please!

[native mortar]

any skin recommendations?

[idle osprey]

ye the ugly one is the prettiest imo

[native mortar]

wait what

[idle osprey]

sry didn't mean that any skins are ugly

jsut more like, that's 100% subjective

[wheat orchid]

I suggest little hornet or daughter of hallownest

[native mortar]

wait i thought those were the same lol

[wheat orchid]

nope

little hornet and daughter of hallownest take a hornet skin different ways

[native mortar]

hmmm interesting

[wheat orchid]

little hornet is more knight

daughter of hallownest is basically hornet fitted to the knight's sprite boundaries, and made a bit like the knight, but then everything was redrawn

[idle osprey]

that one (little hornet) is very cool imo

[native mortar]

ohhh ok

theres also a grimm one right

with like the lines

i might want that

[wheat orchid]

yeah there's 2 grimm ones

[idle osprey]

so apparently the problem was just my original copy (which was fine earlier today) somehow missed a few files, which caused the error.

[wheat orchid]

lol

[idle osprey]

so everytime i started over i was starting with the error lmao

ty anyways for the help

[limber egret]

I'm a big fan of Scion

Though it is incomplete and there's a few frames where the hitbox lines are visible

[tranquil copper]

which one is it

broken vessel?

[wheat orchid]

yeah

[limber egret]

It looks a little bit like BV, but it's not BV

[tranquil copper]

its alright

[limber egret]

It's Little Knight but with Infection

[gray cipher]

?

[limber egret]

That's the one 😄

It's the one I use

Hopefully soon I'll be saying my favourite skin is the Drifter skin. 👀

[gray cipher]

drifter skin?

[limber egret]

I'm making a skin based on the Drifter from Hyper Light Drifter

[gray cipher]

hld

yeah

oh youre making it

ok cool

[native mortar]

alright so i got the skins working but i wasnt able to preview the skins so they ended up being kinda underwhelming

[wheat orchid]

?

[native mortar]

there was an "infected" one that was just orange

[native mortar]

this infected one looks cool tho

but yeah ill look for more

[limber egret]

You can preview them in the google drive

You just open the image on the site

[errant creek]

what's the fix for not being able to see the other person moving in multiplayer

[native mortar]

didnt work for me but i just looked at one of fireborns showcases and picked a few

[full cosmos]

Does anyone know the keybinding for swapping between the gun/nail with the Hollow Point mod? I just installed it, but after pressing everything on my keyboard I can't find it

If you want, get both and see which one you like best

[hardy moss]

which one is mod installer 2?

[wheat orchid]

The one in the pins

[hardy moss]

ty

[full cosmos]

thx Someone. I didn't have the modcommon installed which was the issue.

[waxen flare]

charm overhall makes it so I can use more charms without worrying about being overcharmed, right?

oh wait lemme check that doc

[novel bronze]

what do i install?

[waxen flare]

radiance

[novel bronze]

the second link?

[limber egret]

Yes

[hazy hemlock]

Hey my sound is not working. I'm using a ps4 controller

Any help?

[west gale]

can anyone help me with custom knight?

im dragging the files to the default folder, but in game all i get it Change Skin and default

change skin does nothing and default resets my character model

and idk what the problem is

[wheat orchid]

screenshot the inside of the skin folder

[wheat orchid]

unplug the controller until the main menu

[hazy hemlock]

oh ok ill try that

[west gale]

this is whats inside the Default folder

[wheat orchid]

why did you put that in there?

[west gale]

because thats what fireborn did in the video

should i delete it?

[wheat orchid]

they put the skin folders in the customknight folder, not the default folder....

[west gale]

oh

[hazy hemlock]

Thx

[west gale]

lol let me try that

wait

do i do that same folder in the ss or the entire grimmknight folder?

[wheat orchid]

?

[west gale]

do i put the entire grimmknight folder in?

[wheat orchid]

you put the entire grimmknight folder in the customknight folder

[limber egret]

So you will have a folder called Custom Knight with both Default and Grim_Knight in it

And inside each of those you will have png files

[west gale]

i did that

now in game i can see grimmknight

but clicking it does nothing

[wheat orchid]

then the png files are in the wrong place

inside the grimmknight folder, is there another grimmknight folder?

[west gale]

yes

[wheat orchid]

move all the png files from that grimmknight folder into the first

then you are good

[west gale]

Let me do that

Thanks a ton!

[wheat orchid]

np

[west gale]

if i ever wanted to make my own skin would i have to draw every single pose in the files?

[wheat orchid]

if that's what you had in mind, yes

[west gale]

jeez, sounds hard

[limber egret]

It is a lot of work, yeah

It's just like making any animation

[kindred trench]

please i wanna save Myla with a mod

[native mortar]

i think theres one to give her infinite health

[sand socket]

What is the link to the mod installer?

[native mortar]

pins

[kindred trench]

it's not in the list of the mods i can allow on

[west gale]

is there a way to change the knights size?

[wheat orchid]

first you need to install the modding api(it's different from the other mods)

[wheat sleet]

it's a self installing mod or i need to do something with that

[wheat orchid]

after downloading it from the google drive, extract it

?

I will walk you through everything

the only thing that self installs stuff is the mod installer

[wheat sleet]

my hero

downloading it

need to extract in my steam game folder or anywhere is fine

[wheat orchid]

anywhere for now

[wheat sleet]

extracted

[wheat orchid]

ok

go inside and copy the hollow_knight_Data folder once you find it

[wheat sleet]

done

[wheat orchid]

now go to your game files path

and paste the folder into there

[wheat sleet]

found it

[wheat orchid]

when it asks you to overwrite files, say yes

[wheat sleet]

hm the full folder

[wheat orchid]

?

[wheat sleet]

done

[wheat orchid]

ok

now open the game

[wheat sleet]

done

it says modding api in the lft up

[wheat orchid]

good

now exit the game

go back to the google drive.

[wheat sleet]

oki

[wheat orchid]

download all the mods you want

[wheat sleet]

skin mods

[wheat orchid]

customknight is the mod that lets you swap skins

you will also need modcommon for it to work

[wheat sleet]

downloaded

downloading

[wheat orchid]

once both have finished, extract both, and keep going into the folders until you find the .dll file for each of them

[wheat sleet]

wut

in the mods folder?

[wheat orchid]

no

extract them anywhere

keep going into the extracted files until you find a dll file for each of them

copy each dll file into the hollow_knight_data folder

wait

wrong folder

[wheat sleet]

Got it

[wheat orchid]

copy each dll into the mods folder in the hk files

then create a CustomKnight folder in the mods folder

fireborn has a tutorial on how to install skins(skip the parts with mod installer)

so follow that from there

[wheat sleet]

got it

thank ya

[wheat orchid]

np

gl

[wheat sleet]

@wheat orchid i love you

thanks soooooooooooo much

❤️

[prisma lagoon]

Why i can't open the ModInstaller, i already have the hollow knight full updated

??

[jolly zephyr]

I can’t focus soul in-game for some reason. Idk if it’s a mod or something but I can’t focus; even with full Soul

[wheat orchid]

are you on windows, mac or linux

[prisma lagoon]

Windows

[wheat orchid]

do you have hollow point on

[wheat orchid]

are you on mod installer or mod installer 2

[prisma lagoon]

Windows 10

The name is ModInstaller

[wheat orchid]

ok

hmm

try putting it on your desktop

[prisma lagoon]

I already do this

[wheat orchid]

hmm

[jolly zephyr]

It’s not but I think that’s causing the problem

[wheat orchid]

have you tried right clicking and running it as administrator

[prisma lagoon]

No

Let me try

[wheat orchid]

if it's not currently on, then it's not the culprit

[prisma lagoon]

I used crack one time, do this bug my ModInstaller (i have steam version now)

[wheat orchid]

yes

delete the pirated version

[real jacinth]

not sure why drug use would matter

[wheat orchid]

oh lol

[prisma lagoon]

I deleted all the files

[wheat orchid]

follow the instructions in the pins for resetting the installer

[jolly zephyr]

I’m using

Charm Notch
Charm Overhaul
Custom Knight
Death Counter
Enemy Hp Bar
More Saves

[wheat orchid]

try getting rid of more saves then charm overhaul if that doesn't work

oh also get modcommon when you disable more saves

[jolly zephyr]

Alright. I will

[prisma lagoon]

Now he tell me the game is not installed

??

Man

The crashes ever come in the team cherry page i don't know why

I deleted all the crashed game files

[jolly zephyr]

It still won’t let me focus soul

[waxen flare]

Tfw you cant beat trial of the fool even with the easy mode mod, and the game glitches out and forces me to reload the game every time I die to trial of the fool

How else am I supposed to unlock the third pantheon

[spring bane]

I didn't think you needed to beat the trial to unlock it

I certainly havent and I can play the pantheon

[waxen flare]

I cant get to her

how do I reopen the mod enabler

[west bane]

double click it, it's an exe

[waxen flare]

it wont open

nvm

it worked

ty

[blazing nacelle]

can anyone help me with the multiplayer mod

[blazing nacelle]

im gonna do it later

[steel hinge]

when ever i download a skin and click on it in the pause menu it doesnt change my skin

[orchid owl]

Is the hollow knight multiplayer mod still okay to run? Thinking about using it. Would it remove my save at all or anything?

[lunar nest]

how can i delete hollow point from hollow knight?, I hsve a bugged version and i cant heal me

[west bane]

hit uninstall ont he modinstaller

[novel bronze]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOf_zN-ksmQ

i wanna play that mod, anyone know that?

[west bane]

check fireb0rn's video

we don't know unless we know your OS, folder location, how the hierarchy is setup, if you have modcommon . etc.

[meager pier]

when playing debug mod foreground is not in the right place

[thorn bison]

how can I find the ak mod ?

[topaz light]

How do you mod hk

[limber egret]

Gun mod is called Hollow Point

[topaz light]

I have modded other games

[limber egret]

Which store did you buy HK from?

[topaz light]

I don't think you are talking too me?

[limber egret]

The first one no

The second one yes

You need different things depending on your system and where you got HK

[topaz light]

Well I haven't bought hk

[limber egret]

Okay then you can't mod it

You can only mod the steam or gog version of the game

[topaz light]

Ok well at least I will be able to mod ss

I played hk on Xbox game pass

[zinc comet]

what is the mod that randomize ennemies ?

[limber egret]

Ah, yeah, then you can't sadly.

It's called enemy Randomiser

[zinc comet]

found it, tks

[topaz light]

Modding is in c#?

[limber egret]

I think so

But the reason you can't mod it is down to how Microsoft do things, not the game itself

[topaz light]

And anyway it isn't on game pass anymore

[limber egret]

It's on the steam sale at the moment. If you know you like it and want to play it Modded now's a good time

[topaz light]

I want to mod IT

[thorn bison]

I have a problem that after activating mods I can lunch the game but I won't make it to the menu

I installed it on windows

it's just a black screen

[idle osprey]

(modinstaller1) nothing shows up in main menu. Also when i press revert back to unmodded it says unable to locate vanilla hollow knight. Please verify integrity of game files and relaunch this installer.

[random nest]

Wait can you specify@idle osprey

What happens whwn you launch the game?

[idle osprey]

It opens and goes to main menu, but nothing shows up in upper-left corner, also when I load up save file the mod is not active.

[random nest]

Yeah that's a glitch that sometimes happen

[idle osprey]

What can be done?

[random nest]

Wait a sec

Do you know where your save files are located?

@idle osprey

Dude?

[idle osprey]

oh hi sry i left for a min

im not sure where they are tbh

where is their default location?

found it

[glass hamlet]

Hi,
I have a problem
This modinstaller says that I have to check file called ModLog.txt
What should I do?

[idle osprey]

is it these? C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\ @glass hamlet

[glass hamlet]

Imma checking

[idle osprey]

@random nest i found save files, they are in the default location. What about them?

[random nest]

Delete the file containing them

[idle osprey]

whole folder?

[random nest]

This will delete your modes and you will have to download them again

[idle osprey]

yeah that's no biggie

[random nest]

But this will fix your problem

[idle osprey]

so the whole folder "hollow knight"

[random nest]

Yes

[idle osprey]

Done, lemme test it :D

[random nest]

And because of steam cloud save your save files are not harmed

[glass hamlet]

No

[idle osprey]

ok, cool @ amr

@glass hamlet how is it not that one?

[random nest]

It is that one

[idle osprey]

it is a text file which logs the processes when u load up hk with mods. kind of.

[glass hamlet]

Oh sorry! imma stupid! I have a bad day today so I didn't see them
Yep, you're right

[idle osprey]

so in there you should see for example somehwere "modding api ver xxx loaded" and etc

yeah yeah ok! dw

[glass hamlet]

Ok, i can see these folders

[idle osprey]

turn on file extensions

[glass hamlet]

ok did this

[random nest]

So did it work@idle osprey ?

[idle osprey]

opening rn

[random nest]

@glass hamlet sorry I was talking to@idle osprey

[idle osprey]

where are steam cloud save-files located?

[random nest]

They auto download

[idle osprey]

okay cool

[glass hamlet]

But can we go this way,

[idle osprey]

still nothing in main menu tho

[glass hamlet]

Can I delete all thi files of this installer and reinstall it?

[idle osprey]

why?

u can definately if u think that'd help

[random nest]

You can delete the hollow knight data file and then validate your files

That will reset your files to vanilla hollow knight

[idle osprey]

is this to me?

[random nest]

Yes

[idle osprey]

the data file? wdym

the data folder next to the executable?

[glass hamlet]

Ok, so I have to delete the folder called Hollow knight data?

[random nest]

For both yes

@glass hamlet yours might work but I am not sure

So it might take a while because the data file is 7 fb

Gb

[glass hamlet]

Ok

[idle osprey]

delete ...\Hollow Knight Mods\ hollow_knight_data ?

[random nest]

No

[idle osprey]

u mean 7 GB

[idle osprey]

what data folder then

[random nest]

This should be the default directory

[idle osprey]

yes but not in my case

i have different

installations for different purposes.

so one 1432 "normal" original, and one 1432 modding

[random nest]

Open the file that has the executable

That you want to fix

[idle osprey]

ok

im in it

and what to delete?

[random nest]

Hollow_knight_data

[idle osprey]

next step?

[random nest]

Where did you download your game from?

[idle osprey]

steam

[random nest]

Then open steam right click on your game

Press properties

[idle osprey]

ye

[random nest]

And then verifying integrity of game filea

Files*

[idle osprey]

there is no such option

only for original installation

[random nest]

So redownload the game i guess

[idle osprey]

i've done that a few times

so copy the orig install?

[random nest]

Yep

Since you deleted save files forlder this should work if you copy original files

[idle osprey]

yes, makes sense

copying is done

just open modinstall, let it install api, then open and test?

[glass hamlet]

I deleted this file and reinstalled it but it still doesn't work

[random nest]

Just go buy the game

[idle osprey]

it's 7$ on steamrn

[sour fern]

uh,ok...

[random nest]

Mods only work for legit hollow knight

[sour fern]

thanks.

[blissful niche]

so uh

does the mod installer include every mod?

like, available on thundernet.

nexusmods*

[idle osprey]

not every mod

[idle osprey]

please, tell me where it was

[random nest]

@idle osprey recopy the orig files and try downloading modding api manually

That might fix it

[idle osprey]

#archived-modding-help message

also that might

[zinc comet]

https://github.com/a2659802/HollowKnight.Decoration/releases

[idle osprey]

thanks ardioz

[random nest]

Oh this is the mod that makes the whole game like path of pain

[idle osprey]

ye lmao

amr, what do you think about what mickely wrote? #archived-modding-help message

[errant creek]

is there a way to remove the key binds from debug mod

[idle osprey]

yes you could go into the file and change

no simple UI-based way

oh, well u can definately remove them

what patch?

[errant creek]

patch of what

the mod

[idle osprey]

hk

[errant creek]

err

i have it on steam

so ig the newest

idk

[idle osprey]

ok 1432 :D

[random nest]

@idle osprey yeah I am on phone i cant open that link

[idle osprey]

i dont have it so i can't test it unfortunately

this was the text @ amr

To reset the mod installer, go to
%appdata%..\Local
and delete the folder
ModInstaller
Then run the installer again.

i have already done it, and testing right now

[random nest]

Yeah do that

[idle osprey]

didn't work :(

wtf is the difference, really can't figure it out

[random nest]

I think i get it

Can you move your game to C

[idle osprey]

modlog: [INFO]:[ModManager] - Initializing
[INFO]:[ModManager] - Initialized
[INFO]:[API] - Loading ModdingApi Global Settings.

why would that make a difference??

it worked yesterday, then when i tried out hollow point something fked up

[random nest]

Because I think mod installer is modding another version from the other 4 you have

[idle osprey]

hmm but the path is correct in modinstaller

[idle osprey]

because that would actually make sense, although i dont know HOW that would hapen

[random nest]

Yeah we don't have many options so you might as well try that

[idle osprey]

try what

[random nest]

Changing the directory to C

[idle osprey]

it's definately not modding the incorrect version, although it might open the wrong version

cuz i see in file explorer that it responds to what i do in mod installer

[ivory aurora]

oi how's it going

what's the struggle

amr you got this?

[random nest]

Nah I am out of ideas

[idle osprey]

mods aren't showing up in main menu

[ivory aurora]

Hm

[idle osprey]

even though i see in file explorer, they are installed

[ivory aurora]

Just, like, blank topleft?

[idle osprey]

and enabled

yes

[ivory aurora]

and this is in the logs?

[idle osprey]

yes

[ivory aurora]

[idle osprey]

we thought it might open wrong version of hk somehow

[ivory aurora]

You already tried the "delete anything mod-related" way?

I'd assume so

but making sure

[idle osprey]

yes

C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight folder

and that one ^

[ivory aurora]

hm

[idle osprey]

and mod installer folder in %appdata%\local\modinstaller or something like that

[ivory aurora]

So, all mods (which ones btw) in the mods folder

but it doesnt show

hm

someone had something similar a few days ago

[idle osprey]

just this for testing it out

[ivory aurora]

Lemme check what they were told

[idle osprey]

ok ty

[ivory aurora]

damnit, it was something else

the entire menu was clean

for two different people

each with a different problem

maybe check dependencies?

I'd guess you already did that but one can never be too sure

wait

@idle osprey is this the first time you're modding?

[void harbor]

Does the RandoMapMod not work with Randomizer 3.07?

[idle osprey]

dependencies?

also, no not first time im modding

it worked yesterday and b4 that

then i tested hollow point, something fked up, so i reinstalled. and now it doesn't work.

I've done it as "clean as possible". remove hk, reinstall from steam, copy that to my directory i use for mod version. link modinstaller to that path. it downloads all mods and enables them which i can see in file explorer.

[novel bronze]

anyone know hwo to solve this?

[idle osprey]

yet, nothing shows up in main manu (and therefore nothing works in game)

[void harbor]

@idle osprey I had the same issue just now

[idle osprey]

unsolved?

[void harbor]

Hitting "revert to unmodded" and then "enable all" in the installer sort of fixed it?

Except that RandoMapMod doesn't seem to be working, but not sure if that is because of this or because it just doesn't work with the latest version of the randomizer

[idle osprey]

worth it to go to latest restore point?

[void harbor]

In Windows you mean?

[idle osprey]

ye

[void harbor]

I didn't have to

[idle osprey]

latest one is 28/12

yes but im just so "tilted" it doesn't work lmao

[void harbor]

Hehehehe

[idle osprey]

when i press revert back to unmodded it says: unable to locate vanilla hollow knight. Please verify integrity of game files and relaunch this installer.

[void harbor]

Wow... Okay that sounds pretty bad 😛

[idle osprey]

@glass hamlet had this same issue

[idle osprey]

yes but what exactly is not reset between re-installs

[void harbor]

%Appdata stuff?

I don't know? 🤷‍♂️ 😦

[idle osprey]

yes but if i delete them

only like registry keys

that's same between re-insatlls

MrHug, do you think it's possible that hk is somehow loading up incorrect version of hk?

[random nest]

Any luck?@idle osprey

[idle osprey]

the unmodded version

@random nest no sadly

[open steppe]

I might be able to help

[idle osprey]

yes please! :D

[open steppe]

Ok

First

Have you downloaded the mod installer multiple times

[idle osprey]

yes

[open steppe]

That’s your problem

[idle osprey]

but i have deleted %apddata%\local\modinstaller

once

[open steppe]

Try to delete all of them, including the mods, then redownload and it should work

[void harbor]

Maybe, but sounds unlikely to me?

[idle osprey]

so which are all?

teamcherry\hollowknight folder

and the installation of hk

[open steppe]

Just the mods and the mod installer

[idle osprey]

and %appdata%\local\modinstaller

oh ok

[open steppe]

Then you should actually try to view the integrity of game files to make sure you didn’t delete anything you weren’t supposed to

[idle osprey]

but the new "structure" and files in hollow_knight_data will not be as in original state

i have reinstalled from steam

so shouldn't be any missing files

[open steppe]

Do you have any saves where mods are enabled in them then

[idle osprey]

ye

no i mean

[open steppe]

Ok

[idle osprey]

just a godhome save w/o mods

[open steppe]

Delete the godhome save, it might be glitching this process out a bit

[idle osprey]

:( can i back it up?

and then use it later

[open steppe]

Yeah of course

[idle osprey]

ok :)

[open steppe]

Like godhome save as in 112% or godhome mode

[idle osprey]

in the team cherry\hollow knight folder it shows 4 saves

although in the game i only have the 4th one

godhome save, not mode

[open steppe]

Oh ok

So definitely back it up

I once experienced a bug that made my healing glitched from the hollowpoint mod on my godhome save lol

That was like 120 hours down the drain

[idle osprey]

wow that must suck a lot

hollow point really glitch things up with focusing

so now i delete what

was the installation of hk needed to re-install?

cuz modinstaller changes the files

[open steppe]

Depends on which mods you used

I’d say you might want to do that just so it doesn’t glitch anything out

[idle osprey]

i just used enemyHP

for testing

[open steppe]

Trying to do lightbringer Gruz and it’s not fun lol

[idle osprey]

what's that

[open steppe]

Lightbringer mod

[idle osprey]

yes but what's the deal

[open steppe]

Gruz mother changes into emperor Gruz lol

[idle osprey]

ok

[open steppe]

And I do basically no damage

[idle osprey]

so i should re-install modinstaller?

[open steppe]

Yeah

If you have it deleted alread

[idle osprey]

can i have both the 1 and 2 at the same time

[open steppe]

And got all the files and stuff deleted as well

Both 1 and 2 what

[idle osprey]

modinstaller

1 and 2

[open steppe]

Maybe

Is there a difference to the two btw

[idle osprey]

ill just use the 1

kind of, i dont know exactly

did i have to delete the %appdata%\local\modinstaller folder?

[open steppe]

Yeah that might help

[idle osprey]

that folder contains a xml file with paths to modfolder, insatllfolder, apifolder, and temp folder. so ill delete it

ok it's installed

what mod should i try that 100% wont mess it up

[open steppe]

Sorry for being afk

Ok

Just try to enable modcommon

[idle osprey]

wow i just found a big "clue"

[open steppe]

What’s the clue

[idle osprey]

when i open it and right click it on the taskbar, then rightclick again, then press properties

it shows the path to orig-install

so somehow it isn't opening the correct installation

[open steppe]

Wdym

Correct version of hollow knight?

[idle osprey]

correct installation of it

i have multiple installations

and it just open the Steam\steamapps\hollow knight\hollowknight.exe

[open steppe]

That might be the problem then

[idle osprey]

while i checked with other versions (for example 1221) and it does indeed show the "correct" path (not to the one above

idk if that was necessary, but there u can see what i mean

[idle osprey]

why did u send it back?

[random nest]

@idle osprey any luck?

[open steppe]

Didn’t mean to lol

[idle osprey]

not really

but it might be like we suspected

it just opens the incorrect installatin of hk

watch the video i sent

[random nest]

It opens the exe that is located in D

[idle osprey]

oh

i

am

so

stupid

............................

steam_appid.txt

lmao i wanna kill myself xDD

[open steppe]

The main thing I know is that the thing that causes this is installing the mod installer multiple times

[idle osprey]

adding the steam_appid.txt solved it

[random nest]

Did you figure it out?@idle osprey

[idle osprey]

although that did not fix it yesterday

[idle osprey]

#archived-modding-help message

[random nest]

Still on phone

Can't open this link

[idle osprey]

well it was just 3 messages up

"adding the steam_appid.txt solved it"

[random nest]

Ok got it

[open steppe]

#archived-modding-help message

[random nest]

Congrats

[idle osprey]

so i guess the solution was partially (obviously) the .txt file,

[open steppe]

It works on mobile for me

[idle osprey]

and reinstalling

and clearing the %appdata% stuff

[random nest]

And maybe the save file thing

[warm violet]

Does anyone know of a list for the enemies that can be spawned with the twitch chat mod?

[idle osprey]

and maybe that too

gg boiz

ty for the help all of u

[open steppe]

Bees, pv

Those are the main two to look out for

[random nest]

Np@idle osprey

[idle osprey]

:)

[random nest]

See ya

[open steppe]

It’s np bro

[warm violet]

Well bees I'd its own same with pv, but there is a spawn aspids or specific enemies, more so my chat doesn't spam ones that can't be spawned

[open steppe]

I’ll check one sec

[warm violet]

Ty homie

[open steppe]

Np bro

I sent him the complete command list btw

[random nest]

@idle osprey have a good time playing bro
https://c.tenor.com/whBbwBMdI-sAAAAM/havefun-goodtimes.gif

[open steppe]

You’ll get a lot of !lifeblood commands lol

[idle osprey]

now i get this tho,

but it's jsut the readme.txt

[open steppe]

Oh I think hollowpoint is just bugged

[random nest]

Just forget about hollow point

[idle osprey]

yes i think so too

[open steppe]

It’s doing that even when I try to uninstall

[idle osprey]

lmao

well i could just do it manually, it just the extract process that gave the error

[random nest]

Oh well is it worth it at this point

[idle osprey]

im not sure

hollow point glicthes whole comptuer out, i get bsod, my pc explodes sometimes, also i get bill telling me to pay rent etc

hollow point cool concept, but too glitchy xD

[random nest]

Just forget about hollow point

[idle osprey]

so yeah ill forget about it

[random nest]

Play rando instead

[idle osprey]

yiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

[idle osprey]

wdym

[random nest]

He is taking to the other guy

Talking*

[idle osprey]

ok

[random nest]

About twitch mod

[idle osprey]

ohhh

that's so freaking cool mod

who made that

[random nest]

I dunno

Look it up

[idle osprey]

zaliant? maybe

[haughty spruce]

Hi, can anything be done about hollow point bugs? I saw you guys talking about it

[idle osprey]

no, unless your willing to do it yourself :P

[random nest]

Not that I know about

[haughty spruce]

Ah

Cool

[idle osprey]

they are just bugs in the code of the mod

so there's no UI button to fix it haha :)

[haughty spruce]

Yeah i tjhought so. Where can i locate the code?

[random nest]

Are you a mod programmer?

[idle osprey]

well you need to understand C#

[haughty spruce]

No, defiently not. But i do have a biut of programming knowledge

Ive been learning c# for close to 2 years now

[idle osprey]

ill give you the path

[wheat orchid]

https://radiance.host/apidocs/

[haughty spruce]

thank you

[idle osprey]

go to the .exe location,

[wheat orchid]

Here’s stuff for learning to mod

[random nest]

Hey dude

[wheat orchid]

Hello

[idle osprey]

but open the hollow_knight_data folder

then open managed

[haughty spruce]

ty!

[idle osprey]

and there is the file called "Assembly-CSharp.dll"

[idle osprey]

cool!

[haughty spruce]

yep, is that the pllace?

[idle osprey]

yes

[haughty spruce]

Coool tyty

[idle osprey]

then there should be a section named mods or cheats or something like that

[wheat orchid]

*folder

[haughty spruce]

Yep

[idle osprey]

folder yes

but it's not like you just have to change a 1 to 2 or something, it'll be a lot of work

[haughty spruce]

Yeaaah i kinda knew that going into it

[wheat orchid]

What’s going on?

[idle osprey]

especially just locating and knowing what to "fix"

he wants to try to fix some bugs on hollow point mod

[wheat orchid]

Ah

Completely wrong place for the first step

[haughty spruce]

Techincally i've got nothing better to do, soooo

[idle osprey]

he has been learning C# for like 2 years

so he should be able to try

[wheat orchid]

This is the wrong step tho

[idle osprey]

how do u mean

[wheat orchid]

Unless you are planning on editing assemblies with dnspy

not fun at all

[idle osprey]

isn't it technically a class though

[wheat orchid]

Wdym

[idle osprey]

that's what he's planning on

i think

[wheat orchid]

There is a HollowPoint Class

But

How do you plan to access it and edit it?

[idle osprey]

dnSpy

[haughty spruce]

Oh i have no clue. Thats why i came here

[wheat orchid]

It’s not good to edit them with dnspy

[haughty spruce]

vbasically

[wheat orchid]

Ok

[idle osprey]

why not

[wheat orchid]

Learn to code with it and you’ll see

[wheat orchid]

Do you have a c# ide such as visual studio or rider?

[haughty spruce]

Yep

[idle osprey]

what do you mean, are u saying specifically dnspy isn't good for editing?

[wheat orchid]

Ok

Because you are editing already compiled code

[idle osprey]

yes ofc, otherwise it'd be a lot harder

[wheat orchid]

Bruh

[idle osprey]

?

[wheat orchid]

It’s compiled, then to edit it, it’s decompiled, then it’s compiled again, then it’s decompiled and recompiled again the next time you make changes

[idle osprey]

im pretty beginner to code so im just talking from what i assume

[wheat orchid]

Do you have a c# ide?

[idle osprey]

me yes

[wheat orchid]

Try editing a mod in it

Then build it

[idle osprey]

build?

[wheat orchid]

Then try to make the same changes after downloading the mod with mod installer in dnspy

In visual studio build is ctrl + b

[idle osprey]

what does build do

[wheat orchid]

Building compiles the code into a .dll

[idle osprey]

ok

[wheat orchid]

Download the hollow point code off github and open it with that

[idle osprey]

i have visual studio, are .dll files not supported?

[wheat orchid]

Wdym

Oh

[idle osprey]

is it not compatible to open a file with .dll extension in visual studio

[wheat orchid]

Why would you need to

That’s not the intended way

[idle osprey]

u told me to edit it, :/

[wheat orchid]

Plus it’s a lot harder since editing code that’s been compiled then decompiled is a nightmare

I said edit it with dnspy

See the difference for yourself

[idle osprey]

is dnspy a c# ide?

[wheat orchid]

Idk if it’s officially that, but pretty sure no

[idle osprey]

okay

i dont have the time to test it, but ill take your word for it. So basically, editing already compiled code (.dll for example) is a nono

[wheat orchid]

It can be done but I learned the hard way that it is not at all the good way

[idle osprey]

thanks

i've done some extremely simple modding of the game

just by going into the assembly-csharp.dll file and changing for example heal amount and similar stuff

and that works just fine for me

[wheat orchid]

Ah

[idle osprey]

so im biiig noob lmao

[wheat orchid]

That won’t work for ModdingApi updates or putting it on the installer

[idle osprey]

whaaa

[nova pilot]

sry if stupid question, but I can't delete saves because decoration master mod licence is in the way (and yes, trying to play impossible any%)

or do I just delete manually?

[wheat orchid]

You are editing assembly C sharp

[nova pilot]

probably

[wheat orchid]

In the globalsettings you can turn the liscense off

[idle osprey]

and it has to be like an add-on?

[nova pilot]

ok

[wheat orchid]

If that’s what you call it, yes

[idle osprey]

what do you call it

[wheat orchid]

A mod

[idle osprey]

haha ok

[fluid moon]

Anyone have the modinstaller link?

[idle osprey]

pins

[wheat orchid]

Windows, Mac, or Linux?

[fluid moon]

Windows

[wheat orchid]

Where did you purchase the game

[fluid moon]

Xbox pc beta and steam

[wheat orchid]

Xbox won’t work

Steam will

[fluid moon]

Ok

[idle osprey]

modinstaller 2 is here #archived-modding-help message

[wheat orchid]

You can use either mod installer

1 or 2

[idle osprey]

modinstaller 1: https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe

[fluid moon]

Ville907 have two mpdinstallers?

[wheat orchid]

?

[idle osprey]

there are 2

use whichever you prefer, i prefer ver 1

[fluid moon]

Thanks @idle osprey and @wheat orchid !!!!!

[idle osprey]

np

[nova pilot]

thx!

[wheat orchid]

I suggest copying hell mod since it goes over a lot.

[haughty spruce]

Dang. As my knowledge of modding grows, my respect for modders grows tenfold

[wheat orchid]

lol

Its really easy once you get into it

Oh wait

Ohhhhhhh

[idle osprey]

same

[wheat orchid]

I remembered why I stopped modding early last night

I got tired of fixing FrogCore

[idle osprey]

what's the issue/s

[wheat orchid]

Specifically the journal entry adding of it

Other mods can reference it to add entries

[fluid moon]

What is the doference of mod installer 1 of the mpd installer 2?

[wheat orchid]

2 newer 1 more features

[idle osprey]

ok i wont be any help for that frog

[wheat orchid]

lol

[idle osprey]

yes, that's why i pref ver 1

[fluid moon]

Oh ok thx

[idle osprey]

but ver 2 looks a bit more macos-ishy

[wheat orchid]

It literally was working, then I tweaked some unrelated code and it dies

[idle osprey]

if that's a term im allowed to use

[wheat orchid]

I even reverted to a old version and it’s broken

[idle osprey]

what

that's literally the life of a programmer tho

[wheat orchid]

Yeah

[haughty spruce]

Even i have experineced that. And i haven't been coding for too long

[idle osprey]

tweak player movement speed, and the main menu is now not displaying start

same @ vili

[wheat orchid]

I’m gonna go watch YouTube now. #archived-modding-development or #modding-discussion might be better for these convos

[idle osprey]

yes have fun

[haughty spruce]

true

[native mortar]

is it normal for geo to not appear with a skin on

its not every skin but so far the only one where it does appear is christmas knight (out of the ones ive downloaded) and that one has its own geo sprites

[haughty spruce]

Sometimes it happens, happened to me too. try to deselect, then select the skin again. That usually works.

(note: usually)

[native mortar]

hmmmm i'll try it

also is there a google drive or something with all the skins, ive found one with like half of them but it doesnt have most of the ones i want

[haughty spruce]
