thanks
can you heal in hollow point
read the readme
good idea
guys what is this mod? It says that I already installed it but I don't know what it is in the mod manager
that's a map pack not a mod
and how do I install them : c?
if you got it fromt he fireb0rn video, follow the description, if not, just look up decoration master fireb0rn has a guide
Here's my guide on installing and using the DecorationMaster Mod, a mod which lets you both customize levels and play other people's customized levels! Credits to Sawyer and shoutouts to 56.

yo is there any reason for randomizer mods to not be working?
a number of reasons yes
depends on what your issue is lol
well i've installed and enabled it
but when i actually open the game
in the corner it will just say that the randomizer mod failed to load
im trying to do randomizer 3 (item and room) btw
you probably are missing dependencies then
what does that mean
make sure you have as follows
-benchwarp
-qol
-vasi
-seanprcore
-modcommon
hi

and basically take apart my pc
but it did happen before that
right now im playing unmodded
i have uninstalled hollow knight

Zaliant told you how to fix it. Dunno why you're just guessing and sharing weird info
its quite easy to get too
im not that good at theses thing though
just copy the location and paste it into the location bar, and bam
yes
well i hope you will
cuz that's how you fix it
just paste the whole thing here
Save Files: %APPDATA%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\

Anyway, I was popping in to check:
I know I've read that Random Map Mod can have some weird bugs with Multiworld, but I hadn't run into any issues until I played my first 3 player Multi yesterday, in which for two of us the Map was complete nonsense (It just randomly showed checks all over the map from the beginning, many of them weren't in the correct locations, and they were ignoring logic; on top of it was only showing "available" check indicators, and none of the "not yet in logic" indicators were there).
I bring this up just to check if it is known why this happens yet, and/or if any steps can be taken to prevent it? (We're introducing a friend to Randomizer through Multiworld, and preventing the map mod from donking up would be very helpful lol)
anyone help me
map mod hasn't been updated for multiworld yet iirc
so weird shit is bound to happen
if it has, the version that works with it isnt on the installer
and would have to be added manually
who knows where i can dowload ak74 mod
the installer
Yeah. My understanding is that because of how it works (where it pulls from?), it doesn't normally matter (It is normally just checking for what you can get in logic). It typically works fine in 2 player multi.
then how this mod name is

hey im using windows and trying to work the randomapmod. i installed the dependencies but have no idea where the .dll file is. anyone able to help?
if you're using modinstaller, you can press "manually install mod" to install a mod from a dll file
otherwise, go to game install folder/hollow_knight_data/managed/mods and put the dll in there
I installed it via the mod manager but it still hasn't worked and so I looked at the github and it said In needed to install is with the .dll file but I don't know where it is
should be in the releases tab, unless somebody didn't make a release >:L
okay found the file. π€ that it finally works
up-to-date files are all on the google drive in pins btw
ah ty
just making sure, this was the fork you took it from right?https://github.com/TheGreatGallus/HollowKnight.RandoMapMod/tree/master/HollowKnight.RandoMap the other forks are all stale
sadly modmap is being mean to be and not working 
oh no i didnt
i used a dif one
maybe thats the issue
just take the google drive version
thanks for the help!

where can i find a mod to show enemy health?
?i
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages.
Do these wotk for Switch?
Like most games, the mods only work on PC
Whenever I run the mod installer it tells me "could not create secure ssl/tls channel"
Windows 7?
Windows 7 has recently been doing that for some reason. Try mod installer 2 for windows from the pins. If that doesnβt work, you need to manually install mods
it is windows 7, i will try the second installer, thanks for the help
what do i do to increase nail strength with mods, which one is right
Debug
thnx
When you play with mods does your steam time go up? For example if your playing with the gun mod does steam record your hours played?
If you open it through steam it will, yes
Yay :)
so i installed the enemy randomizer and i dont know what to turn on so the enemy's are actually randomized
its from the installer in the pins and i only downloaded that mod
the second installer worked for me! thanks much.
hollow twitch refuses to create the TwitchMod.GlobalSettings.json for some reason
How do I open up the thing that manages my mods again?
I can't find the app on my desktop
did you put it on your desktop
- remember where you put ModInstaller
- open it
if you didn't move the file, then it's in downloads
why would it be
Alright then
I used mods a couple weeks ago but now when I try to heal on the save files I used the mods on, it doesnβt work
I think it may have corrupted my save file
ty for sharing
hi I was trying the redwing mod out and for some reason I have infinite soul. is there any way to fix that?
does anyone know how to reset the hotkeys in the debug mod
RedWing mod gives you Infinite Soul. That's part of the mod.
ah ok I was questioning it because watching old footage of the mod shows soul regen.
thanks
In the krita sprite loader plugin, how do I pull up a series of sprites? I'm targeting the 'idle' folder in the sprite folder, but it keeps pulling up nothing...
F, used hollow point on a save you like. not save corrupting tho. you can fix it by save editing
go to your save files path and delete all files with ModdingApi in their name

also like reverses my controls sometimes
besides item and room ive got the enemy randomizer also on
ok nvm accidently downloaded chaos mode
ight who can get multiplayer to work
i am having huge problems with downloading the mod installer
basically i had hollow knight through the microsoft store and tried to mod it
realized it didnt work so gave up uninstalled
decided to buy again on steam cuz why not support team cherry some more
downloaded the mod installer and was working great
kept installing more of the mods on ther and eventuallly got an error message of a central directory corrution
deleted mod installer, deleted hollow knight, reinstalled cleared game files of mods
still having the central directory prompt
if anyone could help i would appreciate it
it stopped right at the first enemyrandomizer
all the mods before that worked
and none of the ones i checked after that work
dunno who that is
its the one with zote on it
what's the version number
dunno why you uploaded it
i was downloading them very fast
okay thank you
Oh okay thank you i will check now
v8.6.0 is current
also, if you haven't. move the exe to your desktop, and run as admin
well shit lol
your game will never run with that many
okay cool so go and uninstall then if i want something make sure to take it slow
they will all conflict
modcommon, vasi, moddingapi, seanprcore
okay cool thank you
mods that have requirements will auto download them
yeah lol i was getting the secret access code to silksong
i ran the game for like ten minutes and it was just fucking confusing
lmao
Oki I m new to modding so.. where do I start ?
Download the mod installer
So, it would seem some of the glorified charms in exaltation aren't working- glowing womb, sprintmaster, and dashmaster don't update after beating Paintmaster Sheo. Anyone know a way to fix it, or force the change? Is there another version of the mod that doesn't have this issue?
SO i have a question: i REALLY want to play hollow knight with randomized rooms and items. where can i find the randomizer mod? I've looked in the mod list but i can't seem to find it
When i used it it was in a mod installer with a bunch of other mods.
i have that mod installer thing, but can you get the randomizer mod on there?
I think there is a link in pinned messages
ok thanks
When i tried it it was there
I'm doing a room rando and defeated Nosk, but the doors aren't re-opening. Should I just warp out and re-enter the room?
Screenshot
This happened to me too
There was an option in the pauae screen i think that enabled you to wLk through walls
You need to enable it to pass through
Where could I find that? The pause screen just has the bench warp menu and the knight changer menu
Oh. I havent played a mod in a log time but the randomizer should have an options menu?
Unless this is a different randomizer version
Must be, I don't see it myself. I'm just user the Randomizer 3 from the mod installer π€·ββοΈ
Hmm there should've been an option to walk through walls weird
That is debug mod
Randomizer 3 doesn't have this feature, though the walls should open up
It's called Randomizer 3
If you have randomised enemies then it might not work because it doesn't see Nosk die
But if it's Nosk and it doesn't work then ???
Oh yeah. Weird.
Yeah, no randomized enemies. I warped and had to re-fight him, and it worked that time
i can't find a mod with that name. Is it somewhere else? i'm looking in the drive right now
On the mod installer not the drive
oh
Please use the mod installer it solves a tonne of problems
ok i can see it
There should be a bunch
Don't get Randomizer 2 it's not longer supported
ok so i installed the randomizer, is there anything else i have to do? i already have benchwarp
o i have to do anything with the files of something or can i launch the game?
Oh if its automatic then dont worry
all right, i'm gonna try it out. wish me luck!
If memory serves, it should be all the mods needed? I would thibk it would raise a warning if anything was missing
Good luck!
Yeah, this is why we use Mod Installer 1. You click download on Rando3 and it downloads all five or six mods that you need to play it
it works! thanks for the help!
Have fun!
You can type ?rank randomizer racer in order to get the role to post in #randomizer

So I installed CustomKnight, but the icons aren't working in the pause menu. I see the skin names, and the icons are in the folder with the sprite assets, but the mod doesn't seem to load them. Did I do something wrong, or miss a step?
how do i play rando
The icons no longer work.
Makes sense, I thought that may be the case. No big deal, thanks
Assuming you mean "how", you want to download the mod installer from the pins and grab Randomizer 3
hey is there any mod that lets you replay the path of pain ?
QoL
do you know if mods affect all save files?
I think it should only affect new games.
But just in case, you can back up the saves.
how do i do that?
You can find the folder where the games to and copy those save files.
I believe that on steam you can access the folder esily.
Good luck with mods!
Does Benchwarp work inside the path of pain
So Iβll put one in
Then yes
how does hollow point mod work?
how do i delete the mod so i can edit the path on mac?
why cant you just run it it should prompt you to select the correct path
read the readme
not sure it isnt working so i think it might be a problem with the file path and i skipped it thinking it was already there
does anyone know if bonfire mod's intelligence increase gun dmg?

I don't even know if it's the same for modinstaller 2. @ people with mac knowledge, help
@glass meteor
@novel bronze you could use an third party software to search where the file is located
I'm not 100% sure but you can try to use something called alfred
Is the passive soul regen supposed to randomly stop until you quit in the hollow point mod?
hi everyone, I just look at the video "How to Install Randomizer Mods in Hollow Knight" from Relyea but I can find out the file "RandomizerMod3.0" he is talking about.
even in the google drive I can't find it, so I'm asking for help
thanks you !!! I don't know why my computer isn't showing it
Hi, I just came to ask a question about the randomizer. I've noticed a lot of bugs/issues with it, and I was wondering if maybe I'm not using the latest version
can you send a screenshot of your title screen?
if it's on the installer it's the latest version
Yeah, but the problem is I'm not sure the installer is one the latest version
I got the download link from a Youtube video that's about 2 years old
so how can i change file directory on a mac?
this. the installer automatically fetches the latest versions from the google drive without needing an update
you can reset the path by deleting ~/.config/HKInstallerSettings.json
I've installed custom knight mod but when I run the game and try to change the knight's skin the skin selection on the side just disappears until I reopen the pause menu and the knight doesn't change.
it says that the modding api window is out of date?

thx π a lot
I did that and the skins work now but all the sprites are fuzzy
Change the resolution
even on higher resolutions some are still fuzzy and it also lags my game cause my computer is terrible

welp, I'll just deal with lower res sprites or go without I guess, thanks for the help
Can you set binds in debug mod?
Yes
Click the white dot across from the bind then press the key you want
To reset all binds, close the game, go to your save files path, and delete both files with debug in their name
is there a way to uninstall modinstaller? it is weird and it doesn't work at all, i want to reinstall it to try and make it work ><
like it sayus it can't find "end of central directory"
try this, then if you want to uninstall just delete the executable
I think they mean uninstalling the ModdingApi
Oh wait

i'll try

So, not sure whether this is a huge issue or not, but I thought I'd mention a strange event before it turned into an issue.
When opening the mods folder, I often find files that shouldn't be there. Those files have name such as "game_map" or "big_bee" and seem to be some sort of asset or other game file that get pasted in the wrong spot. I've been using many different mods, including all dependencies (frogcore, modcommon, seanpr, sf, vasi and weaver) decoration master, custom trial, qol, anyradiance, ultimatum radiance, sanic and custom knight (unsure if this has happened while other mods were active, only noticed recently)
I've been deleting them, but it occurred to me this may be the symptom of a problem. If a screenshot or the files in question are necessary, I'll be on the lookout for the next one.

Can you mod hollow knight on Linux
yes
Is there a video on YouTube or anything I can follow
maybe this will help?
Does ModInstaller get Updated or do I have to do something to update the mods?
I'm not sure which mod is doing this, but geo is invisible and it's annoying as hecc
I have enabled;
Modding API
Benchwarp
CustomKnight
ModCommon
QoL
RandomizerMod
custom knight
Well I switched to default but it's still invisible
well i tried to copy it but it's still invis
They are GameObject dumps from modcommon. Some mods dump certain objects that are used so they can find out how they work. Sometimes these arenβt removed when ready to release the mod
They are in the intended spot
Ah, thanks
Big bee is from custom trial, my bad
Is there any way to remove or disable bloom, depth of field, film grain, motion blur completely?
afaik there is no film grain & motion blur in the entire game, bloom idk, depth of field afaik no mod for that
Yeah
How to prevent unlocked benches from resetting in benchwarp mod? Because it can be a pain while playing randomizer
Btw is the Assembly-CSharp-firstpass.dll even moddable?
They arenβt supposed to reset.
What mods are on
I have a problem with debug mod. Sometimes when i load the game it just doesnt let me get into the airborn state and i dont fall therefore i can allways jump and like said dont fall.
Custom Knight ( using Daughter of Hallownest currently ), QoL, Randomizer, Benchwarp
What mods are on
ModdingAPI, ComstumKnight, DebugMod, Modcommon
That all?
Ye
Screenshot the debug menu
You are missing modcommon, seanprcore, and Vasi, which are all required for those to work
They count as mods
should i send it in here?
Library mods
Well, I do have them regardless
Yes
Screenshot the settings for benchwarp
discord is on the side, i dont know how to screenshot only hollow knights half of the screen. @wheat orchid
alt + prtscrn
Open the cheats tab
That menu?
Yes
everything deactivated
that works it just lagged out as soon as i loaded a save with debug mod
is it just a little bugged or did i do something wrong? @wheat orchid
My guess is a bind is causing it
You can reset binds by closing the game, going to your save files path, deleting all files there with debug in their name
is that in the mods folder?

can i delete all data with DebugMod in the name in that save file folder?
Yes
Tho I have to redo the run now, but at least I'll be able to see if my benches stay
hi, could someone tell me how to install the mod Howow Knight?
cause it has the bloom, depth of field, lens flare(didn't know that existed)... in it's data?
so will modding it let us remove those?
99% sure that stuff isnβt in there
We canβt mod that one
Anyways gtg again
@wheat orchid I did that and it worked, at least i think so because ofthe keybinds being reseted. But now, it still accured
@wheat orchid I deleted all the files with debugmod and i can still fly accidentally

Hey can someone help me i am trying to downpatch Hollow Knight in GoG and it dosen't work the same as in the videos i saw how do i do it?
ive been playing hk on my switch but i recently got it on pc, can i know how to download mods
Modding on Hollow Knight is pretty easy and straight forward. In this video I will go over the basics of modding and how to play with several different mods.
This is only the beginning to modding. If you have questions on how to install mods outside of the mod installer, that is beyond the scope of this video.

Excuse me. I recently gained an interest in modding Hollow Knight, and I've seen many mods that change certain enemies and bosses to have altered and sometimes completely new attacks. Could anyone tell me how to do it?
modding or installing mods
Making mods
Sorry, I should have specified that
#archived-modding-development pins are a great source of informatino
Thank you
Dang, this is much more complicated than just changing stuff with Notepad ++
yes, but you also have basically no limits
Yeah, but I'm kind of intimidated by all the different things I'll have to do before I can even get started. There are so many things that could go wrong and I wouldn't even know which one... I don't even know what Unity Editor is
Hmm... the example mod thing looks like it'd simplify things. Does it already have all the references that it mentions are needed?
no. you need to add references in your own IDE

The installer probably didn't, but your OS probably got updated. Also time and space have changed since then.

How does one edit a mod's code?
Say i want to edit a mod, how would i go about doing that?
Copy it from github, edit it in a c# ide, compile it with that ide
step 1: learn to code
2: what redfrog said
Oh yeah it is in c#. Maybe i shouls check this if I am not too lazy lol
What's used to edit the code? 56's tutorial makes it sound like dnspy, but the pins make it sound like something else is used
Huh. I'm sorry, I don't already have one of those. Unless it's supposed to be a universal thing that everybody has.
you have to download one
Do you have a recommendation or should I just look up "C# IDE" and download the first thing that comes up.
it's preference
I don't have enough experience to have a preference.
so pick one
rider and visual studio are the "main two"
especially if you pair resharper with vs
free one is visual studio
Yeah, that's what I meant (:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/13kuj-CpumIZ0t2DYYV99Z_x2qkC_JFeJ/view
What mods did you have
don't use this version, this is very old and broken
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UQGC9GKPfad88pJMiHj8XBYWhDjiK4pu/view here is newer version
I keep getting an error message when I'm trying to downpatch. It keeps saying "Depot download failed : Manifest not available", and I have no clue what that might mean. Any help or guidance would be much appreciated
I assume you're using the steam method?
Yeah
There's an app you can download to fix that over in Resources
The third message up. Steam manifest patcher
You run that, then you can downpatch.
If you want to down patch again later on (you want to get a different old patch, for example) you'll have to run it again at that time, but once you've downpatched, you won't need to look at that app again if you don't want to.
FWIW I ran this method once and have 4 HK installs:
Current patch
Current patch with mods
1.2.2.1
1.2.2.1 Debug Mod
This makes it very easy to practice
Okay, thank you so so much!!
Anyone know a fix for invisible geo with the Custom Knight mod?
Grab the Geo PNG from the default folder and copy it into the skin that is missing Geo
yooo okay thanks
does anyone know how to install mods?
In pinned messages
Use the mod installer
There should be instructions on how to do it.
I still cant figure it out.
With multiplayer mod sometime it just makes everyone freeze. how fix
like we are connected but the our characters are frozen for the other people
exit the game and load back it
Check out the multiplayer server in case you have further issues @stone flame
Make sure the host loads the game first
it worked
Whenever I sit at a bench, one of the placeable map pins appears on my screen. It goes away when I open my inventory, but it's still annoying. Does anyone know how to fix this?
it's a known issue in randomapmod, sadly unfixed
You just did
lol
so im trying to downpatch on mac using depotdownloader, and when i try to run the file, i get the error message "The application βhollow_knightβ canβt be opened." I also don't have a data folder, just an application and the steam_appid text file i added
Open the app
Right click it
View contents
And you also have to use the proper code for Mac to get the correct app version. So make sure you put on the correct downpatching code
The appid text file needs to go inside the app
i also opened it on my working installation, and the downpatched install is missing the folders mono and mono bleeding edge, and the config.ini file
oh ok ill try that
hmm still not working
I have a minor question about using Custom Knight along with the Lightbringer mod.
Lightbringer seems to come with a skin change for the knight that has priority over the custom knight mod. When I attempt to play with both and apply a customknight skin, the skin will be applied but will be replaced with the Lightbringer skin when I change rooms/use a bench/etc. Does anyone know a way to play the Lightbringer mod while using a CustomKnight skin?
Rewriting the mod
I have a feeling I don't know how to do that
any clue what could be the problem? is there supposed to be a data folder for mac that i didn't download correctly?
It should be in the app
If it's not, then you might not have waited long enough for the download to finish
Might be in contents
So is there no way to make Lightbringer's skin not take priority over CustomKnight?
without changing the way the mod works, no
Damn
You could still have the HUD changed by custom knight
The hud reverts back to normal as well when I change rooms or bench
hmm now the debug thing is not working
i do everything in fireb0rns video but the text in the top left never shows up
ok i installed modinstaller2 and now hollow knight freezes on a black screen. the terminal that opens when i run it says its looking for Data/Managed/etc, which doesn't exist in the modded install. I'm guessing this is part of the issue?
nvm got it, was adding the folder to the wrong place
Is there a way to hide the CustomKnight UI mid-game? It bugs out if I click on it a second time and it's currently overlayed with the Bonfire UI
I know the Cheat Menu had a display/hide keyboard shortcut...
No
Can't you go in settings and turn off custom knight?
Would that not disable CK?
That's what you want
I don't wanna lose the effects of CK(or bonfire), it's just that their UIs overlay each other and both can be very awkward to use(not impossible, just annoying and finnicky)
i need some help with decorative mod
somebody pls help me i just want to play hollow knight
please help me i am going to cry
tell people what the problem is
people don't know if they can help, and begposts just make them annoyed
oh well i was downloading decorative mod and i got the map fireb0rn was using as an example into my game and i was doing what he said to access it so i used debug mod to set my kingsoul to three (i'm doing this in godhome if that matters at all?) so i exit godhome and realise he also recommends a few other mods (QoL Bench warp Etc) so i leave to turn them on i come back in the game and my game is glitched i'm in a darkish area and instead of it saying junk pit (i think is the area name?) it says like some other languages charcters on either side of some thing that says like 3 random words all on different lines. i can still use my dream nail so i went back into god home i could crystal dash although the animation wasn't working i couldn't dash and i couldn't see the dialogue when dream-nailing some of the creatures thats all i know.
#!#_SUPER#!#
#!#_MAIN#!#
#!#_SUB#!# this is what comes up when I load my save file (as the area name) if anyone knows wtf this means I would be very appreciative this
Yep
It's the text that's meant to be presented when you enter the area
MAIN is the big chunk of text
SUPER is the smaller text on top
SUB is the smaller text under
it means it probably doesn't have a name written anywhere for it
huh thats interesting
well I still have other problems here
I can't control my inventory or quit game or dash or do most things my QoL has randomly stopped working through the midst of this as well
ok I'm going into the save to see other problems
can't see geo number
like shit tons
...
Did you think of maybe not using a shitton of mods at the same time?
I wasn't im using like a couple only 2 more than usual
I just have loads downloaded bad answer to your question
Wdym?
like I have loads downloaded just not many activated (at least in my books)
how do I find that again?

Can I still get skins from white palace challenge?
If you can complete the challenge you can get the skin
Check #modding-discussion 
Random Question: Is there a way to get stuck in a randomizer run (as in can't get new abilities)
what do I copy to get there?
To get to the save files?
hey, i'm trying to do the hollow point mod, but it isn't loading in at all. i made a new save with it disabled, save quit, enabled it, like the read me says to do, but... nothin
To get to the helper logs
Press win + r and then paste this
%AppData%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight
thanks
This will get you into the save file location where you can hopefully find the helper logs
You need to make the save with it enabld, then quit out
The Readme is worded a little weird on that aspect
i actually tried that, too
Would you mind sending a screenshot of your main menu screen?

Okay so what exactly isn't working
You seem to have everything you need
If it is simply not loading the save at all it may be worth getting rid of MoreSaves. It has caused problems for people in the past
hello everyone, I'm new to modding Hollow Knight. i was wondering how i change skins once i've gotten the custom skin mod activated? No options are showing up in game! do i need to download extra files to do so??
What OS are you using, where did you get Hollow Knight from, and which mod installer are you using?
wait, how exactly do i heal? is it passive? because if so, it doesn't seem to be happening
Read the readme
it looks like you're using randomizer: if you enabled cursed, then the ability to heal is also randomized
windows 10, the mod installer pinned in the discord, and i bought the game through steam!
Mod Installer 1, then?
Or 2?
Wait
Did you download an skins?
You need to download skins
i think you just answered my question! next question then π whats the best place to download some skins?

i have, i've had it open since i installed the mod and came here when my questions weren't being answered in the first place
You need to land like 7-8 hits with short interval between hits
so it's very likely that i'm either misreading something or not understanding
From my experience
Also if you get hit, the adrenaline goes down by 1 or 2 so you have to get hits till You get 3 and like 6-7 more until you heal a mask
It's really hard without charms that help with range and firerate
no kidding... thank you!
how do you change skin using mods?
Hello I have a question with the debug mod. as soon as I click somewhere it keeps disappearing?
it's pretty simple
you download the skin that you like the most of the knight
you enter the game files
Custom Knight
hey, im trying to play multiplayer on hk and im reading something and watching a tutorial but i cant find MultiplayerClient.dll its saying i need to press "manually install mods" but i dont see that anywhere. what should i do
and there you leave it
Which mod installer are you using?
I think the tutorial is outdated; you don't need to install them manually because they're on the installer now
so what do i do now
The tutorial should guide you except for that part, I believe
ok ill watch some more of it
can't seem to find the judgelight skin - anyone know where i could download it?
ive gone onto hk but i dont think thats the right ip, is it?
How to fix it?
update your game to current patch
how?
if using steam, right click > properties > local files > verify integrity of game files
process should be similar in GOG galaxy
what if i'm not through steam?
if you're saying you pirated the game, then you can buy the game to get an up-to-date version π
hm, that is the latest version
and what to do then?
rerun the installer
i tried it, it doesn't work
do you have multiple installs of the game?
like yes, I'll check now
so im trying to use modinstaller on linux and here it says that i need to get prerequisites (mono, mono-complete) and idk what that means
because modinstaller will check for default installs and not give you an option to select, you may have to switch around the installs
mono is a library for non-windows platforms that allows running windows apps, you can download it here https://www.mono-project.com/download/stable/#download-lin
ok so im downloading it
but wqhat do i do with it then
i just open modinstaller and it works?
after following the instructions on that page, run modinstaller using mono
as the post says, should just be mono ModInstaller.exe once you're done
i mean should be because I don't run linux π₯΄
once you have mono installed: open terminal, run mono Modinstaller.exe
but do i need to download a file called mono modinstaller.exe or not
no. you download modinstaller.exe, then run that using mono, which you install from https://www.mono-project.com/download/stable/#download-lin-ubuntu
oh ok
no I do not have
try this, if not then
#archived-modding-help message
ok so how can i run modinstaller through mono?
Does anyone know how the howling wraith upgrade thing works in the abyss with hollow point? Considering it's not really a spell??
