Get the modcommon mod
@proud orchid how did u install it?
oh
@vital mountain
Where i can get hollow knight skins and how i can switch them?
How
I mean what should i do when i want to switch skins with out draging files
...?
In game you click the skin names on the left of the pause menu
It’s covered in fireborn’s tutorial tmk
I started new save with mods and now im in collesuem? in a new save with 0 min on it?
I assume you have randomizer on?
and debug
Try disabling enemy rando and hollow point when creating the save
Hey folks, installed a few mods for the first time, and the menu is now unreadable. I clicked through from memory to the menu and changed the language, but the only recognizable languages are russian and korean (which I can't read) What do I do? lol
it might be a mod you installed
I'm pretty sure of that, but nothing in any of the ReadMe's is helping me out. Guess I'll just revert and try them one at a time which will be a little bit of a pain
see if you can find a description of some of your mods
debug mod completely breaks my game, like after i go to the menu the first time, i cant jump or it puts me back to first start of the area, and i cant swing my sword
Can enyone help me? I have mod installer and some mods installed. I tried to do enemy randomizer, but when I tried to close Hollow Knight it seems to lag my computer. It shows "Too many issuses" screen. When I opened hollow knight next time there was no saves, main menu loocks slightly diffriend, and I can't start any new game.
Uninstall art mods
That the mod causing it
Art mods is a pack of meme mods
One of those is the one changing text to minecraft enchanting table or smth
Enabled: enemy hp bar, enemy randomizer, Disabled: Multiplayer server and client, mod common, decoration master, Qol, Vasi, Inferno King grimm. Mod installer from fireb0rn's decoration master tutorial
well thats probably your problem you disabled mod sommon
First make sure weavercore is installed
That could be the problem since IKG relies on it
2nd uninstall multiplayer mod, that might be messing with stuff
Wait im dumb i missed the disabled part
Uninstall enemy hp bar mod and see if that works
Hey I was just wondering if there are already servers for HK multiplayer mod? Me and my friend want to play but we only have 2 clients and as far as I know 3 clients are required to actually play multiplayer, one for the host and 2 for the actual players
And what can I do now? Even when I disable all mods my HK still looks the same.
Try going to your save files path and deleting all files with ModdingApi in their name
You only need 2. The host can be a client of themself
i guess no one has a solution for my controller issue.
What was it?
with mods installed, hollow knight no longer recieves any input from my controller
Ah
its detecting it, as it shows up the controller screen, and unplugging tells the game no controller is connected
That happens with some controllers
Try using a program such as joytokey to map your controller inputs to keys
ok
I have a question, is my savefile messed up because of hollowpoint? because i wish i could turn off the healing quickly, I accidentally loaded it with mods, its my 112% file too
Well the github page states you should back up your save before installing the mod, as it changes some stuff in the save file. But I think it also has instructions for manually fixing the leftover code on a save.
How I can find it?
"To fix your file all you have to is use a save editor (search for one, but most quick and convenient would be Bloodorca's online save editor), find the line focusMP_amount: ## and make sure its set to 33, so "focusMP_amount:" 33, this should fix your focusing upon uninstalling."
if i mod my game will i lose my normal files
No, but it is recommended to back up your save files before you start modding as to avoid corrupting/breaking your save
Your save file, the file containing your progress in one of your saves
It's in appdata/localLow/team cherry/hollow knight afaik

Copy your save files to a safe location in case they are killed by hollow point or something
alright
Ya I have a bad habit of not doing that I usually don't have important saves but I just had to missclick and frick it up, thank you for the help!
Np, I always made that mistake when I used to mod other games like slime rancher and minecraft, I've since learned my lesson after a couple of unfortunate save corruptions
i mistakenly thought my whole hollow knight was messed up, im glad to find out its just the save lol
Where is deafult location of hollow_knight_data folder? I have it in documents, and when I try to play hollow knight it shows "There should be 'hollow_knight_Data'
folder next to the executable"
"DRIVENAME"\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight
default is C:\Program Files (x86)
Hello. Im just wondering weather or not I can mod the game on the xbox pc game pass version and if there is anything different from the normal way that I would have to do
Hi. I just installed ModInstaller and get some mods. But, with mods enabled, I can't use the controller! I tried to uninstall ModInstaller but the mods are still in the game. How do i disable them? Or how I can play with mods AND controller? P.S. If my english is bad, I'm Italian.
I can’t get rid of my mods either
P.S. I'm on Mac, if this can help you.
Mod installer 2?
Umh... Yes.
Disable the ModdingApi
Controller problem with mods can’t be fixed
You can try to use a program like joytokey to map controller inputs to keyboard buttons though
what is ModdingApi?
My Custom Knight won’t work, I’m putting all the files in the right place but it won’t work, is it the skin I’m trying to use?
Have you tried looking at the mods list
Ok so update. Everything except item rando with change
Screenshot the skin folder
Alright give me a moment

the modding api
alright im on my pc now. lemme get the screen shot
what is an api?
i did all the stuff in fireborns video
do you have modcommon
no
verify integrity of game files on stema
alright
They are on Mac using installer 2 so I told them to just disable the ModdingApi
will that hurt my saves?
No
ok
how i disable moddingapi?
You uncheck the enabled? Box on mod installer 2
Unless you aren’t on mod installer 2, which you told me you are
If you aren’t on mod installer 2 then click revert to vanilla or do what zal said
It wasn’t meant towards you....
heya
hi
anyone know how to get impossible any% working?
follow fireb0rn's tutorial on decoration master
did you run the game through steam after verifying
because it should say failed to acquire 1 file and it will redownload after
in modinstaller there is nothing installed, but on top left of screen there is ModdingApi: 1.4.3.2-57
my saves stuck like this after i tried using mod installer,removing the mod installers and it works just fine. any resolve plis? T^T
ok but did you verify intregrity through steam files
delete moddingapi.globalsettings both .json and .bak in your save folder

whats the fix?
reading the readme probably
I did
Ty @west bane works perfectly
disable the mod, create a save file, enable it in settings restart the game and enter ur slot
just kinda make a slot, enable the mod restart game and enter ur slot
Ty
that's in the readme btw lol
now that i installed mod common, HK doesnt say im on the modding api
screenshot main menu
are your saves there
yes
in options do you have a "mods" menu?
yes its cause you verified game files
ah
run the instlaler again it should install the modding api
launch the game again screenshot main mneu
your customknight works correclty
but when i ever i put the skin in, it wont let me select it
whats inside one of your skin folders
i dragged my skin file in
screenshots
ill see if it works
k
if i double click it, it does show the images, i remembered how to extract
i need to see inside a skin folder, and the directory
like this https://i.imgur.com/y7dVXly.png
ok i verified integrity. now?
launch the game
Ran out of memory I’m guessing
Or missing a dependency mod
it happened to me, it got stuck at 26%
So I downloaded the debug mod and it worked for like 2 seconds and now it refuses to work. Never downloaded any mods ever so I might be doing something wrong
Is there a way to fix the horns? they aren't sitting still while not moving
I think there are going left and right instead of up and down like the base model

i tried to install the poorly translated mod but it gives an error message after the download anyone have tips

thanks
change it from poorlytranslated.zip to poorlytranslated.dll
If I were to fix the google drive, would I just have to put the dll in a zip?
lol
Would I be able to just keep the same one or do I need it for the zip file?
could the sprite packer be used to help with that?
why my geo is invisible with custom knight?
Copy the geo.png from the default folder into the skin folder you are switching to
the skin already have geo.png
how does that work?
Just do the same steps with godump as you normally would, but with the skin on
why cant i warp to places with debug mod
b/c it doesn't do that
Running into some mod installer issues
Says "Unable to download mod list", I tried reinstalling it twice but it keeps saying the same thing
Hey, so, is the DeathCounter mod working atm?
I don't see any sort of Death Counter indicator thing.
Probably should also mention it's saying that it couldn't "create SSL/TLS secure channel" and i don't know what that means
Check pins, thats where I downloaded lightbringer
HK mods delete my save files when I go in and out of the game anyone that has had the same problem or know how to fix it?

doesnt work it still deletes them after I save quit
screenshot the saves folder and main menu
I have a problem (I think) I try to install the debugmode to activate the collisions and the infinite hp mode but it seems that something does not work, What am I doing wrong? For example, I think I have collisions activated here but... I don't see them
the moddingapi.globalsettings .json and .bak reappear whenever I delete them
yes
How does the mod installer work
you need showhitboxes mod to show collision, and moresaves conflicts with the debug UI so you cant click on the menu in the top right
its an .exe you run it
Thanks!
tldr get the showhitboxes mod and turn more saves off
you click the buttons on it
Ok
Also is it supposed to bring up a terminal?
installed and then make sure the enabled is checked too. I think it's supposed to check that automatically when you click installed, but maybe not
It did
Oh
yes
here @west bane
it's a loading bar, yes
so what's the issue? everything looks fine here, except press G to dab. no clue what that is
jngo ninja'd a mod iirc lmao
lol
hit start game
it deletes my saves
the installer doesn't do anything to saves
do you have steam cloud saves enabled?
steam could be deleting them
turn off cloud saves
where is that again ?
So how does Custom Knight work
your saves look to be in order
any saves I create get deleted I have 2 saves that stay even though I play on them but any new saves I create get deleted
aight disabling cloud saves worked ty guys have a great night <3<3<3
How does Custom Knight work tho ;-;
so hollowpoint spells still dont wanna work
download a skin folder from one of the drives and put them into the customskin folder after downloading the mod
with the mod installer do I still need to build the api to use godump?
no
Use the quick cast button
I doesn't work, I've tried changing the button too
Plus vengeful spirit is a passive in hollowpoint, you need scream or dive for spell
the problem im having trouble with is the dive and scream
dont worry about it, Ill find out eventually
Are you trying to cast with soul or adrenaline? Since you can't use soul to cast
oh maybe thats it
You need the 'lil white blob things that appear after you kill enough things
I know what it is
Yeah
ill try it
Although, for some reason, with shape of unn, hollow point allows you to heal with focus. The really quick focus.
Soo yeah if you have shape of unn, use it
You download it from mod installer. Fireborn has a guide on how to use it
I might just do a video on how to use mod installer
thank you so much, I really dont know why I didnt think of that
hi, did something change with the debug mod? i didnt use steam for like 1 month and now i only have the normal version of hollow knight and not my modded version anymore. and i am not able to get a modded version to run anymore, i copied the whole hollow knight folder, copied the API into it, used the ModInstaller, started the game, but the Debug Mod won't show up in top left corner like it used to..
Did I forget a step?
I am trying to get it to run on current patch btw..
Have you tried opening both versions of your install?
(not necessarily at the same time)
yes
sorry my what? where do i find that?
you need a steamappid to discern the game between 2 installs i'm not sure why you would have 2 installs for modded vs unmodded
godump has crashed twice with UnityPlayer.dll caused an Access Violation (0xc0000005)
in module UnityPlayer.dll at 0023:56e0d6de
When running go Dump you can't do anything else. It takes up a large amount of ram, and attempting to interact with HK or even just use discord or whatever can cause it to crash. Set it starting and just walk away for like 2-3h, depending on what you're making it do
Because for some people it's easier than messing around swapping between each time we want to do a run, mainly. I just click on the hollow knight I want to play
i just followed fireborns guide and there he creates a second install
do you know approximately how long just the stuff with the knight would take
and last time it worked fine, dont know whats wrong this time..
Did you do the thing I suggested?
I have a pretty decent PC and I left it for about 2.5 hours just getting the stuff that can be edited with custom Knight. Leave HK on the screen and when you come back to it just look at the screen and if it jutters every 30s or so it's still going
i am still looking for that file..
If you didn't make it when you created your second install that's your problem
okay, thanks for the info!
Fireborn's guide explicitly discusses it
ok thanks i will wathc that part of the video again, i guess i missed it
ok i skipped that part, because its under the category "downpatching" in the video and i want to use current patch, should have watched the whole thing anyway, thanks for the help
anyone know if the 'little hornet' skin is supposed to be tweaking out like hornet jr. just did a fat line

Hi, I was going through my file paths because I wanted to add in custom knight. After going through the steps of installing ModInstaller 2 and checking Install?. I realized that I don't have a Mods folder. Do I just make one?
ah mac btw.
I blame my school
is #modding-discussion a good place for suggestions?
like ideas or smth
cuz
im bad at codeing lol
you're a life saver. I realized that I can be very tunnel visioned when looking at the file paths in pinned
i recommend krita
ty
I stopped using mods but the Modding API watermark is still in the top corner how do i get rid of that
any graphic design software
verify game file integrity through steam
does that erase any saved data
it checks the game files and makes them all vanilla again
k
tysm! I'll try out mods after i finish the game
Tried to turn off all my mods and run a normal game, While running once I got 3 vessel fragments I never got the extra soul bubble and It crashes any time I pickup another vessel fragment
has anyone ever had this issue
did you fix it?
bc if not to turn off all the mods you go into steam - go to hollow knight in your library - click the gear that says manage - properties - local files - then click verify integrity of game files. Hope this helps!
Earlier I was trying to use mods in hollow knight, but hollow knight was messing up alot and so I had to restart my computer several times. When I finally got Hollow knight to work, I found out that the mods weren't working. How to fix
gonna need more than "mods weren't working. how to fix" lmao
do they know show up in the top right or something? is there a loading bar at the start, does the modinstaller say they're installed
The mods don't show up at the top left, and there is no loading bar.
It's basically just normal hollowknight
screenshot this folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data\Managed
Tried this and it said 1 file didnt match, reloaded and still the same issue
Uninstalled re-installed the game and still no fix =/
If anyone has any ideas i'd love to know

so uuh
how does this go into the game?
this channel has to do with installing and problems with HK mods ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I had a question, I was thinking of checking out the multiplayer mod at some point but I was just wondering, do custom skins work with that mod? Like, if one person has the skins but the other doesn't, does it show up in the game, or even work at all?
its client side
Ah ok thanks
Uh, I wasn't answered. Should I take one or more screenshots of the folder? I can't fit all the files in one screenshot, so I want to know if you only need one screenshot or more
jsut the top half
you dont have the modding api, re-run the installer to acquire, if it doesnt, reset then re-run
?
Yeah, open the mod installer, close it, then open Hollow Knight
i have the mod installer and i have clicked the boxes to make the mods active but none of them or showing in game?
did i do something wrong?
did you click "enable all installed mods" at the bottom of the mod installer thing?
i think i installed the wrong mod installer then
i got the one from pinned messages
which one am i supposed to install to get that one?
wait, are you windows or mac?

uh, maybe go to the Dyno pinned message and go to the radiance.host link?
Btw, sorry if I'm not the most helpful, I'm only using what I've learned from the other people that are helping here
ive done it now thanks for the help
Mhm! Does it work?
yes

I've opened the mod installer, closed it, then opened hollow knight and nothing has changed. What do I do now?

how do i get the glass soul mod now if it's outdated? I tried to download it from the moddb page, upon installing it my game just sat at a black screen so i assume it no longer works. The Infinite Grimm said one hit but i assume thats one hit for grimm specifically
So I have a problem with ModInstaller, when I try to get the mod list it tells me: "Request aborted: Could not create a secure SSL/TLS channel" Has anyone a solution? (Sorry for my poor grammar, I'm not a native english speaker)
All mods on Moddb are outdated. Look in the pins for the up to date one

Hey all, I'm trying to get into speedrunning but am still having an issue downpatching
I ran the speedrunning steps, and whenever I open it, it gives me an error message with the date.
How can I start troubleshooting this?
Is a controller plugged in?
Yes. I tend to run with a switch pro via steam
Try disconnecting it then reconnecting after the game starts
Okay! I'll give that a shot
No controller currently plugged in, still giving me a game crashed message.
Should I try redownloading the Downpatch sans controller and running again?
No worries! Thanks for the thoughts!
is there a jedi custom knight
that would be sick
Big thanks @wheat orchid! Redownloaded, kept the controller out and it's working now
Also didn't re-upload into steam, don't know if that'll help someone else in my situation or not

also why is my Hollow Knight game just black when i open it (except for my mouse)
Because it's not loading
i looked through the pins and im not entirely sure what im looking for. i was more so looking for the sprite sheets within the game files themselves if thats possible
no clue then if you couldnt find anything
all sprite sheets from the game are in a zip file in #art-discussion
in the pins
if you want to extract them from the game yourself, you need to use a unity asset bundle extractor

Is a custom skin
everytime I use the Debug Mod my game doesn't load
define game doesnt load
when i boot up the game its black except for the hollow knight style mouse
is there not a loading bar
no just black with the mouse
go here C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data\Managedscreenshot this bit https://i.imgur.com/zzVRNm0.png
CSharp-Fraccer.dll is the normal top thing i just changed the name
i do not have Assembly-CSharp.vanilla or Assembly-CSharp
uh why would you just change game file names
dunno i just did it
where did you buy the game 🤔
Steam
any showing file directory
?
file directory in screenshot
the top of my screenshot shows the file directory, yours doesnt
here
verify integrity fo game files on steam then run the modinstaller again
how do i do that?
how do I use custom knight
why would you let it live
i dont know i have never used it
I get this every time I complete the API download
there's a pin for installing custom knight
ok
what do I have to do @west bane to get the skins?
you read the pins
no
ok
always worth to install modcommon just in case
and this pops up when I press continue(pretty sure its supposed to have a list of mods)
try resetting it
where do I find the skin pins
like quitting and re-opening?
there's a how-to in the pins
top right of discord there's a 📌 icon
I reset it and it does the same thing
open it as administrator
just a tip for any one else if that doesnt work move the file to your hollow knight folder
and does the modinstaller need to be open while playing
dont think so
no
well now none of my mods are working
screenshot title screen
uh what would you look up on your computer to find the modding api?
its in channel description
here
ok
are you using modinstaller 1 or 2
uhhh 2 i think?
in the options menu, is there a mods menu
ok
no
you need to install modding api on the mods list
ok
try resetting the installer (how-to in the pins) then rerunning the installer, it should ask for your path, then install the modding api
anyone know which mod (QoL?) is causing my game to refuse to let me change the full screen option?
hit alt+enter
it still doesnt work
you probably have 2 installs of the game
of hollow knight?
yes
it seems i do
you need to yeet the not-steam one
Hello Im pretty new to pc and am still trying to figure everything out. I downloaded mod installer and it will run some things like customknight and benchwarp fine, but wont let me use debug even though its installed? The strange thing is, when i booted up the game for the first time after getting debug, it worked.
wdym wont let you use debug
it won't show up in the mods list in options but will say its installed in the top left
oh my god im dumb tysm lol
so after I disabled hollowpoint, everything went back to normal except the amount of time and soul it takes to heal
outlined in the readme
if you had the QoL Mod already installed:
- go to save files
- locate
userX.json(with X being the save slot number from 1 - 4) - ctrl+f "focusMP_amount"
- set the value to 33
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 "focusMP_amount"
- set the value to 33
- 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
That's a problem with your custom Knight skin
my enemy rando isnt working
- Give details about your problem, your operating system, and where you bought Hollow Knight
- Post a screenshot of your title screen including the entire upper left corner.
Is save files in the hollow knight files if so, where
thanks
Whenever i try to do the readme on any of the mods in the modinstaller this thing pop ups on my screen is this bad how do i fix it?
so changing the mp focus value didn't fix the problem
i got HK from steam, im on windows, how do i fix item rando?
Me and a friend are trying to do the multiplayer mod and are having trouble getting it to work, this is the first time either of us have tried it
The Hamachi thing is being used by both of us and I just have the client and not the hosting mod installed
so your friend has client server
he connects then you turn on the game?
yes
skins are not shared, no
no
you see both players wearing your skin
skin mod doesn't matter
he sees default
Ok thx
but its not a problem
Connect with people in hamachi.
host: has server and client mods. connects first to their own IP
guest: has only client mod. connects second to the host's IP
IP being the IP listed in hamachi
if they're host, they have to connect to their own IP before you launch the game and connect to their IP
ipv4
You do not have item Randomiser, you have item changer. You want Randomiser 3 instead of that
What exactly did you do when you changed it?
wtf is an item changer
ty
it helps with plando iirc
It's a mod that other mods use to change items.
It didn't work again (multiplayer)
My friend who is the host launched first and is in the game before I did and it still didn't work
He says yes
Yup
he has to connect before you turn on the game
Yes I did that
then either you're not connecting to the right IP, or your friend isn't connecting to themselves first
or hamachi is throwing an error
send screenshots of the pause screen in game and also your hamachi
To make sure, where exactly do you find the ip?
you both connect to the host's IP
should also be directly visible
usually is in hamachi
is usually like a 75.74. number
or something
Hes checking now
Hello. Im trying to install the debug mod and when i open the game it does this, i cant do anything in the menu
well it's not loading
make sure you have the right mod versions
especially for your patch
you sure you have 1221?
and all the files are there?
yeah but the menu is animated, i have mod api 1221-39
your graphics card could also be fucked
were you able to launch the patch without mods
yes
then either some of the files are gone from the game now, you installed a wrong version of a mod, your hardware is fucked, or.... I dunno what else
ok ill look one my own still thanks for the help
you sure the patch opened normally after you downpatched
files are fucked i think, you might wanna try looking up a guide on speedrun.com there's a more updated version (i think)
I went to change focus mp amount to 33, but it was already like that, sorry im late seeing this
is there something else I should check related to the healing
that you changed the right save
Yay it worked thank you
I changed it in save one which is the one I normally use
did you read the readme for hollow point? I think there's 2 things you need to change in the save
mp focus amount and something else
give more info
do you have a controller
Yes
do you see the loading bar
The game just dont open
Yes but when it load the game crash
those are 2 very different descriptions
it just says to change focus mp amount
try unplugging controller and launching and see if it still crashes, if it doesnt you can connect your controller after you hit the title screen, that would be your issue
Oh okay
Let me try
my modding api sas its out of date please help
update it
i dont know how
if you arent on installer two it should ask to update it when you launch the installer
yeah instaler 2
That didnt work
im to lazy to write it out again
you don't have the application type set to an application
it tries to open it, but doesn't know what to open it with
go into system settings and set .md files to open with a text program like notepad
U have know more things that can help? If yes pls dm me
uh how do you use the multiplayer mod
there is a fireb0rn guide
Connect with people in hamachi.
host: has server and client mods. connects first to their own IP
guest: has only client mod. connects second to the host's IP
IP being the IP listed in hamachi
so I fixed the healing problem with the soul amounts, but it wont let me hold the heal button to do it multiple times
Why is THK invisible? i only have the rando (and everything that comes with it) and custom knight.
ok hes not invisible anymore. that was weird. if you guys want info to hopefully fix whatever was happening, i have only one custom knight skin (daughter of hollownest) and i also had the hp bar mod that came with it, but i was being dumb and only realized it was there after i posted that. i properly installed it via the mod installer and disabled it, and now hes visible.
vram issue , happens in vanilla as well, if it happens just like restart / re-enter arena / lessen down on the mods
ah, k
Hey i am having a problem with the modInstaller, its not dowloading the API
it says that it can't find the moddingAPI.zip folder but isnt that supposed to be installed by the modinstaller?

Hi guys someone can help me?

Nevermimd. I got an answer.
I just re-installed Hollow Knight, why isn't it here?
EDIT : I found the Hollow Knight folder, but none of the files in it work.
does anybody know anything about modding on mac?
hello, im quiet new at modding and stuff and basically my problem is i installed the mod and now there stands "couldnt locate hollow knight installation folder! Please use the botton below to select it."
and i cant find the folder to install it
Same here.
go to steam>steamapps>common then select the hollow knight folder
I know how to use mods on windows, but i'm trying to help my friend with mac installation
The worst part is, I don't even think this is beneficial to me. I just wanna dick around with Hollow Point.
void, go to your steam folder>steamapps>common and your hollow knight folder will be there
its not gonna be in your documents folder
It finally worked
Can somone help me figure out why my custom skin isn't working, i made it myself using sprite packer and i can get the knight skin to work but i can't get the custom grimmchild skin to appear in game after putting in the custom knight mod
get mac installer from pins
what did you name it
and where did you put it
I just removed the gen part (Grimmchild Cln) and i put it in "Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\Mods\CustomKnight\Mantis Knight"
alright thanks
what do you mean "the gen part"
what did you name the sprite sheet
it has to be grimm.png
or it won't work
when i open steam> steamapps> common, there is no hollow knight folder?what now
go to where your game is
I spent all this time just to mess with Hollow Point, and it's not even on the fucking menu
is there a health bar mod?
i dont know where
it is that is the problem urgh
Thank you it worked is there a place where i can find the right names for all the sprites?
the default folder
will nexus mods work for hollow knight if i put the mods in Vortex?
no
okay i got it thanks
How do you use palletechanger?
I'm doing a room rando and user the map tracker app. The map tracker says that Crossroads_10, the False Knight area, has an item in it still. However, I've beat both False Knight and Failed Champion, and I've opened the chest on the left of the room. Is there another item in this area or is the map tracker bugged?
did you pick up the city crest
how do you add mods to your game
windows?
yes
?i
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages.
thank you
Yes I did
are you randomizing geo rocks too or something cause if i'm not mistaken there's a geo rock in the upper part of the room
No, I did the standard randomization settings. (The map hasn't mistakenly tagged other geo rocks so I don't think it's that they're always tracked by mistake)
wanting to know if anyone can help me with the multiplayer mod. Not sure if im missing something.
Is there a map with the internal room names on it?
Thank you!!!!
are you doing it manually?
no
because when i open HK it doesnt have mods
have you installed any mods?
yes but they dont work
go to "options" on the title screen then go to "mods"
the mod tab it isnt there when i open options
look at the top left of the screen, if it says a bunch of numbers and stuff then the modloader is installed
