  1. why do you need to access the mods folder
  2. why did you reply with a ? to me asking about your problem
hard sierra
#

I have modinstaller 2 since modinstaller one isnt working

wheat orchid
#

yes on mac 2 is preferred

ivory aurora
#

Hollow Knight > hollow knight data > Managed > Mods

#

iirc

wheat orchid
#

nah

#

or is it the mac path?

ivory aurora
#

No

#

Wait what

wheat orchid
#

not sure what the api uses for mac paths

hard sierra
#

~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/hollow_knight.app/

ivory aurora
#

No I just use > as a general symbol for all paths

wheat orchid
#

customknight has different paths between windows and mac foe example

ivory aurora
#

hollow_knight.app
Wait what's this one

wheat orchid
#

that's part of the game files path

#

on mac

ivory aurora
#

no?

wheat orchid
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

hard sierra
ivory aurora
#

Anyways I'm gonna go make some tea for myself, you two have fun

wheat orchid
hard sierra
#

because im not sure what else it could be

wheat orchid
#

if there are no install checkboxes/buttons then how are you installing them

hard sierra
wheat orchid
#

just check the installed? box

hard sierra
#

I did

wheat orchid
#

and?

hard sierra
#

It gives me the files

wheat orchid
#

what files again?

hard sierra
#

these

wheat orchid
#

I don't believe that

#

so as soon as you check install, those appear?

hard sierra
#

yes

wheat orchid
#

what are you installing?

hard sierra
#

hollow point

wheat orchid
#

try installing something else for now

hard sierra
#

other mods give me the same files

wheat orchid
#

ok......

hard sierra
#

and now i've crashed

wheat orchid
#

mod installer 2 crashed?

ivory aurora
#

And I'm back

hard sierra
#

yes

wheat orchid
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

never heard of any of that happening

ivory aurora
#

Oh my god that thing is broken so badly

hard sierra
wheat orchid
#

who's gonna tell 56

ivory aurora
#

Why are you on mac?

hard sierra
#

my pc broke

ivory aurora
hard sierra
#

and I was forced to use a mac

ivory aurora
#

best to do it now for context

#

Wait why tell 56 specifically

wheat orchid
#

they made 2

ivory aurora
#

Modinstaller 2 is theirs?

#

Ah

#

@glass meteor come see this

#

Whenever you have time

wheat orchid
#

glass meteor
#

echgod

west bane
#

whenever he comes back and just sees "see this" without a link to anything or anything specific he's giong to go back to muting thechannel OMEGALUL

glass meteor
#

me when someone says it is broken so badly and I have gotten all of 2 pings about it in like 6 decades

#

I hate it here

ivory aurora
#

Oh I see

ivory aurora
#

I just thought the conversation will be contect enough

#

context

#

anyways

#

idk red said you should be shown this

#

Although I don't think it's a problem with the modinstaller itself

wheat orchid
#

summary: person has mod installer 2. person use mod installer 2. person get random files on desktop when checking install box. mod installer 2 crash

glass meteor
glass meteor
hard sierra
#

it was not

#

no

ivory aurora
#

did you set the game path correctly?

hard sierra
#

yes

glass meteor
#

gimme the settings file in ~/.config

hard sierra
wheat orchid
#

found the problem

#

lol

#

that file

hard sierra
#

yeah that seems rather small

glass meteor
#

uh huh

wheat orchid
#

you dragged hollow knight to your desktop

#

lol

glass meteor
#

did you select a hollow knight app on the desktop or some shit

hard sierra
#

no?

wheat orchid
#

then why is that the install path

glass meteor
#

did it ask you to choose a path

hard sierra
#

yes

glass meteor
#

what did you choose

#

and how did you select it

hard sierra
#

the same as the pins

anyone here played lightbringer?

am i just locked out from sly and the charm vendor until i get to resting ground

#

because thats kinda garbage lmao i cant even get a lantern

ivory aurora
#

Wait why would you be locked out of them?

limber egret
#

That's intended

#

Gruz Mother is made absurdly hard, you come from the other side

#

It's not garbage it's just different

#

That's the point of mods, they make the game different

Hello

#

I got a problem

#

Sometimes my game stuck at the loading process

#

I have to reboot to overcome the problem

limber egret
#

Just your vanilla game or what?

marble bane
#

I have a problem
My sight range was shortened after I installed mods
Is there any fix for it?

vernal rain
#

transition to room next and back, unless you have the darkness mod, which kinda makes things dark

marble bane
#

It didn't work and I don't have the darkness mod

#

But thanks for trying to help

rocky pulsar
#

you installed any other mods other than custom knight>

I'm 99% certain I know what the issue is

little igloo
#

in the debug mode, is there like a mode where you just don't...fall?

limber egret
#

Yes

#

No clip

little igloo
#

not noclip style, like I physically cannot fall and everytime i jump, i ascend but don't fall

limber egret
#

Oh, you mean you've accidentally done this?

#

That's called float and it's a glitch

little igloo
#

yes

limber egret
#

Cast VS or something to get out of it

#

Or reload the save

#

That's just base game stuff happening, FYI, not a mod issue

little igloo
#

lol

#

a lot of issues whenever I touch debug mode always softlocks my game but that's a first

limber egret
#

The second mod down says failed to load

#

Do as it says and check mod log. Txt

silent kite
#

hey can anyone help me with a problem that i'm having with the debug mod? Basically I have my left click set as my attack button in game, and i also accidentally set it to load the knight back to the last bench sat at. If I pause the game and then try to click on something then the game will freeze and crash, and I don't know how to fix it since I can't click on anything in the mod settings. I have also tried reinstalling the mod, the mod installer, and the game itself, nothing has worked so far. (I asked yesterday but am still experiencing the problem, if anyone could help it would be great :D)

#

please ping me if anyone has a solution or any questions

rancid crane
#

My enemyhpbar mod doesnt work and I have no idea why, can anyone help?

gloomy coral
#

@hidden sinew another problem might be that you might have downloaded the mod and then opened a new save file. if that was done, the mod won't work. you have to use it in a prexisting save file

hidden sinew
#

ok

gloomy coral
#

wait. if it doesnt show on top left it won't work either way

Hello, first of all I am Spanish, and everything I write I am translating with the google translator, but I would like to know how to install new hatchlings, that is, new mods that modify the amulet of the hatchlings, because I do not know how to do it and I I would like to know how to do it
Could someone help me please?

rancid crane
devout scarab
#

There are mods for that, I have seen them in several videos, there is even a mod in which you can put them all at once and have 20 pets, but I don't know what it is and I don't know how to install it.

rancid crane
#

Infinite Charm notches lets you use every charm, but if you've seen videos with that check the description and they should be listed

devout scarab
#

Thanks, but I'm not looking for that, what I'm looking for is how to install, for example this, instead of having the classic boring default pet

vernal rain
#

part of the hatchling mod

#

or customknight

#

i think customknight is a general replacement of the normal thing

novel bronze
#

hey peeps. i need help with using modinstaller2 on hollow knight. if someone can help dm me
i only need help with 1 thing

wheat orchid
#

Why dm?

novel bronze
#

devout scarab
# vernal rain part of the hatchling mod

Ok, it's exactly what I'm looking for, but I don't know how to install it, that is, I put the same zote and hornet sprite inside the CustomKnight zote mod folder, and it didn't work for me, I'm looking for how to install it

wheat orchid

enable is checked

but no mods in the game

:/

rancid crane

You may have had a similar glitch to what i had a few days ago, did your HK uninstall on steam then you had to reinstall?

dire berry
#

Nope

rancid crane
#

Do the mods actually go into the files

dire berry
#

No i just checked. But i dont know how to change where the mods get put

#

I just clicked yes when i first installed the modinstaller

#

and i've deleted it and reinstalled, hoping to get the options to change it

#

¨doesnt work

rancid crane
#

do you have 1.0 or 2.0

dire berry
#

2.0

rancid crane

gilded talon
#

Quick question - is vpn.net hamachi safe?

real jacinth
#

Nope. They've bamboozled millions

#

And taken all their money

#

With a subscription system

gilded talon
#

So, how should i set up a multiplayer hollow knight server

#

with people far away

real jacinth
#

Hamachi

gilded talon
#

Yeah, but thats just what you told me wasnt safe....

real jacinth
#

yes. i'm the only one that has debunked their business. everyone else is still fooled. Instead, pay me and I'll write a new vpn connection service /s

gilded talon
#

K look can you not joke here, dont mean to be an ass but im just trying to save my goddamn sanity

real jacinth
#

research them then

#

it's literally a business called logmein that operates it

gilded talon
real jacinth
#

plus, as shown by your screenshot here, your question is not very good

#

"is X safe" is extremely subjective based on what "safe" means to you

gilded talon
#

im really just debating on what can happen if i get it

#

will i be fine? Because im not very tech savvy

real jacinth
#

to me, it's a ridiculous question because it's operated by a well known business, it's been around a long time, i've used it a bunch, i'm careful with how I handle programs like that, etc. But if you're taking "safe" to mean "can anything happen ever with this program", then the answer is obviously no it's not safe because you could connect with people with malicious intent

#

it's not the program itself that's unsafe. it's how you use it

#

"is a sword safe" is also the same type of question

gilded talon
#

So nobody can just connect to it on their own unless I tell them the network-or whatever

real jacinth
#

if you're using it properly and/or displaying it, then yeah. if you're swinging it around all the time in a crowded room, then no

#

obviously not. it's not the wild west where you can connect to whoever

#

would be a pretty shit business if they sold that

#

just don't be dumb and post how to connect to you in a public forum

gilded talon
#

Ok

#

Thats all i need to know

novel bronze
#

where can I find the mod for save states

limber egret
#

Debug mod

#

There's a specific one for 1221 that isn't on the mod installer.

If you need that you need to go to #resources and download both the latest modding API and 1221 specific debug mod with save states. The API is one of the most recent messages, the debug mod is in the pins.

novel bronze
#

thx

#

the Csharp.dll one, right

#

nvm i got it

unreal ingot
#

So, I am running a Linux install of the current patch of the game, have mono-complete, and got the ModInstaller.exe working through mono as mentioned in pins; it appeared to have installed properly (I did Modding API, ModCommon, Lightbringer), but when I load the game all of the save slots appear as "Loading..." and the title screen changer shows all title screens as being called "None." Is this a known issue with any of the specific mods, or does ModInstaller only function on windows installations of the game as well, i.e. through proton? Apologies if this has already been answered

real jacinth
#

the modding api settings file was not properly generated

strong spade

So I was able to mod it before, but now that i’ve tried again, it wont let me hit the save files, and it doesn’t say that any mods are loaded, and the only way to fix it is to verify the integrity of the game files, but then the mods dont work. Please help

novel bronze
#

where do you change the speed with the sanic mod?

strong spade
real jacinth
limber egret
#

Follow the steps in the pins to reset mod installer. I would potentially go so far as to delete everything related to mod installer at that point. Load up the game and open a vanilla save file to ensure that you have a working HK before anything else.

Then start from scratch downloading mod installer.

real jacinth
#

sounds like the api settings thing again

strong spade
#

Thats the thing, ive tried 3 times

real jacinth
#

but hard to tell from your description

strong spade
#

Well it also says it can’t access a file called “Assembly-CSharp.dll”

limber egret
#

Delete the two files with that name in your save files

#

Would've been good if you described that earlier

strong spade
#

It just now popped up

real jacinth
#

and now we see the other end of the question asking spectrum

#

lol

strong spade
#

Its not letting me delete them

#

Wait I think I deleted them

#

Still doesnt work

real jacinth
#

no clue wtf you're doing

strong spade
#

So I deleted the files but now its just a black screen

real jacinth
#

again, terrible description

strong spade
#

I dont know else how to describe it

real jacinth
#

So I deleted the files

#

wonderful description. I now know exactly what you deleted

#

"the files"

#

all of them

#

literally all files everywhere

#

they are now gone

strong spade
#

When I open hollow knight, it wont let me open the save files, and the whole menu is pretty glitched. If I verify the integrity of the game files, it works, but the problem only occurs when I try to attach the mods

#

TamiJo told me to delete the 2 files called “Assembly-CSharp.dll”, so I did, but now its just a black screen

real jacinth
strong spade
#

“The process cannot access the file “Assembly-CSharp.dll” because it is being used by another process”

real jacinth
#
  1. that's not what they said (a bit on tami there not being super descriptive either)
  2. this is the logical end point of how you "asked a question"
#

Delete the two files with that name in your save files

#

save files are not game files

novel bronze
real jacinth
#

cool

#

thx for sharing

#

hope you get it worked out

novel bronze
#

well thats all I know about the problem

real jacinth
#

same

#

except it's actually true for me

#

since you haven't told me jack shit yet about your system state

novel bronze
#

well how bout you tell me how to do that

real jacinth
#
  1. what patch are you on
  2. what are the full list of mods/dependencies that you installed
    2b) were any and/or all of these mods visible on the title screen
  3. what exact things did you do that led you to this current state
  4. what OS are you on
  5. did you use the installer
  6. any other info that you might think would be descriptive and/or relevant
#

how tf would I know

novel bronze
#

current patch, bench warp and custom knight, I have the installer but I didnt use it for the debug version that I am using, and all the mods are visible on the title screen, you could have just asked that from the start

real jacinth
#

and you could learn how to properly ask a question so other people know how to help you

#

instead of making them play a game of 20 questions

#

send a screenshot of your title screen

#

and you still didn't describe what you did to get to that screenshot

novel bronze
#

I just started the a normal save, I went through the cutscenes, then cut to that

strong spade
#

I still dont know whats wrong with mine

real jacinth
#

neither do i

strong spade
#

Ive explained as much as I can to you

#

Now its saying “the file c:/tempmods/readme.md” already exists

#

Thats what shows up

unreal ingot
#

Looks like the issue I had?

strong spade
#

How did you fix it?

#

I just read what you said and it is the same issue

unreal ingot
#

I did what Mickely told you to do? Let me grab the message where they told me what to do, though I can't be sure it's the same because I have never interacted with modding hk before today and it'd be good if someone more experienced confirmed it
though if my understanding is correct this shouldn't hurt

Ok

unreal ingot

Oh my god lexi thank you so much it works!

Although I myself am having another issue; it appears to be common but the normal fix isn't working
patch: current patch
mods: Modding API, ModCommon, Lightbringer; all visible on title screen
OS: linux (ubuntu studio 16.04)
description: I've been looking through the message history and this initial issue appears to be common to all controllers, that being that they are detected by steam but the game does not recognize their input; in this case, I'm using a Steam Controller rather than the ds4 or xbox controllers I've seen in message history, and attempted the fix in the pins of shutting off the controller before plugging it back in at the title screen to no avail. I've also tried a couple different things in steam's controller settings that seem to have worked for others (such as was described by dwarfwoot in this channel at <#archived-modding-help message>) to no change
Have I missed any known fixes in my short looking through message history, or does anyone have any leads as to how I would attempt to fix this? If it is relevant, my steam controller is connected to my laptop via a usb hub, in case that interferes with the replugging

#

I'll attempt it without the usb hub

real jacinth
#

The API only accepts XInput, so if the methods described where you're changing settings through steam controller handling aren't working, then you can use a third party controller to keyboard mapping program like joy2key. Your keyboard inputs should still be functioning no problem.

unreal ingot
#

Hm, I wasn't aware there were input devices on headed Linux that used something other than xinput! I'll do some digging, thanks!

#

it does show up under xinput list as "Valve Software Wired Controller"

real jacinth
#

the API just messes with inputs. it's weird. I don't know if a fix has been identified yet, but like you say, it's a fairly common issue

#

the best workaround we've found is to use joy2key or similar

unreal ingot
#

Understood

after installing mods, im unable to save and quit from the game
when i select it, it give the save logo, but it doesnt actually save the game. sitting on benches doesnt save either

it doesnt actually quit, and just puts the cursor on the "no" for selecting whether to quit the game

unreal ingot
#

In case anyone else looks this up later: I got my Steam Controller working via setting its configuration in its own settings menu for the game(i.e., steam right click on hk and go to 'controller configuration') to a preëxisting keyboard mapping!

Anyone very familiar with Randomizer 3? I'm suprised it's being so buggy for me since it seems to be so popular.

#

As far as I can tell it always crashes on starting a new game IFF I choose not to randomize "Keys"

#

and I don't want to randomize keys because (I suspect) lumafly lantern is considered a key? but I want that to always be easy to find

real jacinth
#

show your title screen and your randomizer options screen

vestal iris
#

hollow_knight.exe is "(not responding)" after I click Start

real jacinth
#

well you don't have modcommon

#

so not surprising

vestal iris
#

I thought the installer would handle all the dependencies, but anyway I just added it and same problem

west bane
#

do you have vasi and seanprcore

real jacinth
#

it does handle them all, but if you disable them, then they're gone

vestal iris
#

yes on those 2

real jacinth
#

you didn't turn on cursed did you

unreal ingot
#

loop continues to occur after redownloading ModInstaller; after clearing the .local/share/ModInstaller stuff; and after verifying the integrity of the game cache to have a clean game

vestal iris
#

I tried cursed once, but it's not chosen now

#

hmm, i didn't know about the .local/share folder, i'll try that

real jacinth
#

that's not for you

vestal iris
#

cause i have disabled/uninstalled, then re-enabled several times

#

er oh

real jacinth
#

have you tried randomizing m ore than only charms

#

like charms and skills

vestal iris
#

yeah, even leaving everything else at "standard" defaults, just by turning off "Keys" it breaks

real jacinth
#

then you probably can't do that

#

i just tried running the randomization with your settings and it doesn't work. the logic can't resolve

vestal iris
#

So fine, I can accept bugs in free software if that's what it is, I'm just surprised this hasn't come to the attention of the community, cause getting a reliable lumafly lantern is pretty important

real jacinth
#

not really

#

dark rooms are very deep into the game

#

for the most part

spring bane
#

On easy settings, logic won't make you go into dark rooms. Dunno what "skips" level they are

vestal iris
#

not if you're going for a streamlined/speedrunning route

real jacinth
#

they're dark room skips

spring bane
#

zote reading

real jacinth
#

so long as dark room skips are turned off, it'll never force any dark rooms

vestal iris
#

you're talking about the room randomizer now, which is OFF. I just want the item randomizer

real jacinth
#

no im not

#

dark rooms are completing any rooms in the dark to get to items behind them

#

which would include dark deepnest, joni's, and crystal peak to get to mound/resting grounds

#

if dark rooms setting is on, intended progression could be behind dark rooms

#

so for example, lantern could be at joni's blessing

#

because it expects you to know how to move in the dark

vestal iris
#

oh, so the lantern is garaunteed to be accessible somewhere that's not dark, yeah, but i have to find it by chance which could take 6 hours on a run that would otherwise be a total of 2hrs

real jacinth
#

that's randomizer

vestal iris
#

ok, I'll report the bug to them and move on then

real jacinth
#

and with dreamers randomized, you may not need to enter dark rooms ever

#

because you could find all 3 in crossroads

spring bane
#

Are you sure lantern is a key? You can probably find/ask what category its in

real jacinth
#

it is

#

just like kings brand

#

...i think

#

now i'm not as sure

#

i know king's brand is in the key class

#

yes, it is a key

unreal ingot
#

where can I find ModInstaller's logs if any exist

real jacinth
#

saves

#

oh installer

#

don't think that has any

#

mods write logs to saves tho

#

which exe version do you have

unreal ingot
#

Hm, not sure how to figure out what's going wrong with the installer here then

#

The exe is not version labelled, so I'm not sure how to check
if you're asking 1 or 2, only 1 works on my system, and that's the one I'm using

real jacinth
#

v8.6.0 is current

unreal ingot
#

I don't have a version number in the application titlebar

#

it just says "Mod Manager"

real jacinth
#

where did you get it from and when

unreal ingot
#

I downloaded it today from the radiance link, if that helps

real jacinth
#

okay

#

then it should be current

unreal ingot
#

outside of the loop, the only thing I have access to is a butten labelled "Manually" that I cannot click

#

in the main application window

#

it doesn't even have any console output

#

when I try 2, I get "void EXE-format" from WINE and "Cannot open assembly 'Modinstaller2.exe': File does not contain a valid CIL image." from mono, if using the other version would be a solution

can you manually install mods with ModInstaller2 or does it only work on the old one

ivory aurora
#

Manually installing mods is without an installer

#

You take the mods and drag them into the mods folder

#

Are you on Mac?

glass latch
#

i was referring to the function of the old mod installer that let you manual install and add new mods to the installer so you can enable and disable them like the pre-included ones

ivory aurora
#

The modinstaller (old one) autodetects any new mods; I'd reckon the second can do the same

#

But if you're on Windows I'd suggest to just use modinstaller one for now

i can't, it breaks my game for some reason

The Short Nail Mod decreases your Nail length when you equip Longnail and/or Mark of Pride, but gives you additional Charm Notches for equipping them. Using this mod, I defeat Ascended NKG with Nail only. It's a lot harder than it looks to just land hits.

so, ive been using some mods for a while now, and the ones i use all the time when i play are infinite nothces, easymode and fragile strength for nail arts. today i wanted to test some more out, and downloaded pretty much all of them. i enabled a couple, and im guessing one of them gave me infinite jumps, because i got that. now, after disabling all the new ones and using my original 3, i still have an infinite jump. ive restarted the game and my pc many times and i dont know how to get rid of it.

#

You've got to download the debug mod and then open the game and save file and then deactivate the infinite jumps

#

And then remove the debug mod if you want

ah yeah also ive had debug mod for a while but it would bug out my game and not let me open my menu, and reset my position whenever i jumped

so i disabled it and never touched it again

Suggestion:
Can there be a single pinned message (or Dyno tag) for Mod Installer 2 that has links for the current versions for each OS and a short summary as to what is different from it and the original?

My current understanding is that they're just maintained by different people, and that 2 might be the preferred one for Mac, but that either is fine for Windows.

As someone who mostly lurks and checks in here to see if there's any interesting mod news / updates, I see a lot of people that are confused about the versions, which seems pretty understandable since there's no real write-up, and the pinned messages just have message-less pins for 2 at the top, but the go-to Dyno tag only mentions 1.

real jacinth
#

they do the same thing

#

the UI is just different

#

2 was written to run for all platforms.

#

because 1 had to be run with mono on mac/linux

pliant lantern
#

Yeah that makes sense, and fits with what my current understanding was. It still doesn't help lurkers who come here looking to mod their game for the first time though, which seems to always result in questions about it :P

I also see a few people who when they have issues, it's asked which Installer they're using, and the often times say 2 (presumably because it's the most recently pinned one usually), and advice they're immediately given is to try downloading 1 to see if that works instead. Unless there's something else going on in the background, that shouldn't really matter though.

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

real jacinth
#

usually the question is asked to ensure they're using the right one for their OS. and to understand potential issues that 1 has that 2 doesn't.

#

like the "enable all mods" button

#

people are going to have questions anyways, usually because the process of installing is too easy

#

so they overthink it

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

real jacinth
#

no

#

you press the load enemies button in game

edgy sonnet
#

wait nvm i see the loading

#

this was very helpful even though you didn't do to much for me

limber egret
#

They literally told you how to fix your problem

#

lol

strong basin
#

@vernal rain I am figuring you sent that to help with my problem, I have QOL where do I go to find save files, my mind can't remember

bonk

strong basin
#

thank you

#

now I may be a bit dumb but I did the other steps in the User4 at the bottom

#

and then I went into game and my spells were still not working

vernal rain
#

ok that's weird, sadly i don't know what the issue is then

strong basin
#

thank you for helping then!

wheat orchid
#

Is hollow point still on

strong basin
#

I turned it off trying to see if my spells would work with it off

wheat orchid
#

What other mods are on

strong basin
#

currently Benchwarp

#

QOL and Enemy randomizer

wheat orchid
#

Nothing else?

real jacinth
#

did you rerun the game with QOL on after you changed the json?

#

and did you edit the json with the game closed

strong basin
#

I did edit with the game closed

real jacinth
#

did you save the file

strong basin
#

and the only other mod I have is Randomizer 3

#

Yes I did exit out and save

real jacinth
#

and also silly question but gonna ask..... do you have the spells

strong basin
#

Yes I have the all 3 and upgrade to howling

#

I am able to focus heal but that is it

limber egret
#

Can you send the JSON file here?

strong basin
#

am I able to?

limber egret
#

Yep

#

Just drag it into the message box

strong basin
limber egret
#

Did you send this while you were in game?

strong basin
#

no

#

also for my current settings in game I have HollowPoint turned off

#

and everything else on

limber egret
#

Hollow Point is still listed as on in this file.

#

How that actually affects things I don't know, but I scoured literally every line (except the geo rocks and boss sections)

#

Did you turn Hollow Point off just in the main menu where the Mods option is or did you disable it in Mod Installer?

strong basin
#

just in the mods option

#

should I turn it off in the mod installer?

vernal rain
#

yes

strong basin
#

alright I disabled it in mod installer

#

gonna try HK spell real quick now

#

still unable to

#

also looking at my mod installer there are a few more mods that were needed for rando that are on

#

Mod Common

#

SeanprCor and Vasi

limber egret
#

Those need to be on

strong basin
#

they all are

limber egret
#

Never turn then off

drifting quiver
#

This seems like a really backwards way of fixing this...

limber egret
#

Oh, I see what you're saying

strong basin
#

only thing disabled is Hollow point

drifting quiver
#

Just gonna leave this here...

vernal rain
drifting quiver
#

I know, a video guide is far better, imo.

limber egret
#

But it didn't work

strong basin
#

is there just a chance that hollowpoint messes with your save and bugging out spells?

limber egret
#

So why are you posting it as a solution

drifting quiver
#

huh?

strong basin
#

cus I understand the adrenaline mechanic and that didn't work through my playthrough

limber egret
#

Wait, so you're Hollow Point mod didn't work properly also?

strong basin
#

and like I could get over that but then as I collected this like Howling Wraiths and Desolate dive I was unable to still use the adrenaline moves

drifting quiver
strong basin
#

everything in hollowpoint worked fine but the spells

drifting quiver
#

kmkeaton, can you just dm me your save file so I can take a look at it?

strong basin
#

so the mechanic of using adrenaline to to use moves was never working for me

#

my save was posted up there just a bit ago

drifting quiver
#

That's a .json
Not a .dat

strong basin
drifting quiver
#

If it's still broken after this, it's something wrong with your mod setup

#

We won't be getting any closure on if this worked or not for another 30 minutes zote

#

god dammit League!

strong basin
#

do you want me to replace this file for the one I have?

drifting quiver
#

yes

sleek lance
#

I asked last night but nobody had a solution--I'm attempting fireb0rn's Trial of the Absolute Fool with (the older version of) Italy's CustomTrial mod, and I'm not being pushed back when I hit the Lost Kins in the first wave. If I try to pogo I just fall into them. Every other enemy is normal, including those in the second and third wave. Anyone know what's up?

smoky skiff
#

I don't even know why that happens

sleek lance
#

Does it still happen in the newer version?

smoky skiff
#

most likely

strong basin
#

so I replaced the file

#

and no I am still unable to use spells

drifting quiver
#

Well, if it works on vanilla, and not on yours. Then what's the problem?

#

It's pretty obvious that you need to do some classic troubleshooting

#

Try loading the save in the vanilla game, and see if it's still messed up

strong basin
#

so disable like every mod

#

and then test it out?

west bane
tender tulip
#

it presents me with this problem in the game

drifting quiver
#

What's the problem?

tender tulip
#

"Hollow knight has encountered and must close.
A crash report named ""crash_2021-02-04-220806"" has been generated. These files can be sent to team cherry for analysis Would you like to open this folder now?"

real jacinth
#

real jacinth
#

#

GL figuring it out

tender tulip

Anyone know where I can find the pale king skin. I looked around the web but couldn't find it.

nimble sky
#

two things

#
  1. there's an incomplete version in modding-disc
#

afaik it's missing the spells

#
  1. you can send the completed challenge to methylpalladium for the completed skin

I accidentally joined my main (unmodded except for Custom Knight) save on Hollow Knight with the Hollow Point mod enabled. Within a quarter-second, I exited out and disabled the mod to go back to what I normally use (Custom Knight). When I logged back in, I couldn't heal at all. Then, I enabled Hollow Point again and walked around a bit, disabled Hollow Point and now I can heal again but it only takes about as much soul as a normal shot with the normal ak from the Hollow Point mod, it is also insanely fast. I have tried re enabling hollow point but nothing changes. I have tried equpping/ deequiping charms, dying, even uninstalling and reinstalling the game, nothing works.

@desert pier if you need help finding pale king tell me

Search modding Development for go dump

Then follow the instructions on there

anyone know how I can set my health to 1? I'm assuming Debug Mod has that feature but idk

vernal rain
midnight crest
#

max health

vernal rain
#

save editing works there

midnight crest
#

oh damn, any idea how to do that?

gloomy coral
vernal rain
#

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 "maxHealth" & "maxHealthBase"
  • set each value to 1
    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 "maxHealth" & "maxHealthBase"
  • set each value to 1
  • 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
