can I rename the folder containing the custom knight sprites so it shows up as something I remember in the pause menu?
You would need to head over to #archived-modding-development to get help with creating a mod for 1221.
you are missing the modding api then
Yes
okay thank you! good luck tomorrow!
debug mod worked for awhile, then just stopped
Where is the modlog.txt file? Im trying to run decoration mod but it says FAILED TO LOAD CHECK ModLog.txt
you need version 57 of the api
is there any drive whit the asembly sharp.dll api?or any instructions of how to compile it in linux?
use the installer
the modinstaller?
im not able to get it to run. I am not trying to crack. Just trying to have a mod running on my steam version of HK
so use the installer
you need mono and mono-complete installed
then you launch the exe with mono
System.BadImageFormatException: Could not resolve field token 0x04000041
File name: 'ModInstaller'
apt-get install mono-complete says everything is up to date
this after saying that there is unable to download and shows a retry/aabort/offline mode option
how do i make a second directory? im using steam hollow knight btw
i copy and pasted the steam directory into desktop and tried to mod the desktop one but for some reason its like the desktop and steam were linked
also this happens when i revert back to unmodded even after i verify integrity (once i verify integrity, the mods do go away though)
and i cant seem to change the directory before it auto-mods the currently selected directory
For the directory thing, you have to reset the installer, instructions in pins
Running the installer installs the api (makes game modded). Verifying integrity reverts to vanilla. That's just how that works.
And for multiple directories... Idk, but maybe the downpatching guides on speedrun.com will have similar stuff to what you have to do

Decoration master not working "failed to load, check ModLog.txt"
Where is the ModLog.txt or how do I fix it
Did you run ModInstaller today? I keep forgetting that the update from yesterday didn't fix the problem. Womp womp.
yes
#archived-modding-help message do this; decomaster doesn't like the latest API
(And are you using the windows version of it; the one with the Zote Head)
yes
will check it out, thx
Modlog.txt is in saves for future reference
If you end up opening Mod Installer again, you'll have to re-paste the file
No, shouldn't
Someone mentioned a kaizo server existing
I'm having an issue with the modding API, whenever I install it (I'm using installer 2 btw), I don't have any mods installed, just the API, and when I try to play the game, I see this when I try to start.

Is modding possible on switch
No

thx
hey guys, I'm trying to get the modded version of the game to work with a xbox controller, the base game works fine (steam), but the modded version doesn't recognize the controller.
I'm running the mod version through steam, but even running it directly and/or as admin doesn't seems to work, any tips?
which xbox controller
the new one (series S/X)
already tried connecting via bluetooth and USB, neither worked
nope, sorry, the xbox series S/X controller
go into the properties for the game
i use the same controller and yh it doesn't seem to work on separate installs, i have to use the same install and manually toggle moddingapi on my main install
and check off these
if that doesn't work, then you'll have to use a program like joy2key to map controller inputs to keyboard inputs
yeah, didn't work :/
are you using a separate install for modded?
yeah, it's a separated install, just added it as a new steam game, but even if I open it directly from windows it still won't work
how do you toggle it manually?
if you're using modinstaller there's a button to do it
i personally use these https://github.com/ManicJamie/HK-basic-modswitcher/releases/tag/1.4.3.2-57, though note this is an outdated version of moddingAPI 🥴

both versions won't recognize the controller when using the .bat files 
only works when I run the game through steam
the batch files are for your steam install
they mod and unmod that install
the steam controller handling will only work on your "main" install of the game
so this just removes and re-applies the modding api to that install
oh, so I should just run the bat file for modded or vanilla once, and then open the game normally trough steam?
I thought I would have to always open the game through the bat files
yeah

so i'm getting this weird bug where i can't heal
i've tried going back to where you find focus and it still won't let me
i can't figure out which mod is causing it
I would say just disable them one by one until you can get it to work again
Did you play with Hollow Point?
Are you playing Randomizer (Cursed)?
i did use hollowpoint
everything i had on was:
hollowpoint
benchwarp
infinite notches
customknight
enemyhpbars
that was it i think
@pliant lantern
Yeah, you should probably read the ReadMe for Hollow Point
Hollow Point removes the ability to heal normally. You also don't want to use it on a main save, because it'll donk up your soul (and the only way to fix it is by editing the save file itself)
are you making one?
oh
how exactly do i fix this
File Explorer code: %AppData%..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight
Save Editor Website: https://bloodorca.github.io/hollow/
This video will provide a fix to the issue of not being able to cast spells after installing the Hollow Point mod. This mod was intended too be used with new save files only.
Music Used: Revali's Theme Remix, by GameChops.
Tell me if the video is good I've never watched it
Yeah, you should probably read the ReadMe for Hollow Point
Literally, the ReadMe mentions the problem, and gives one possible way to fix it.
You can also read this message:
<#archived-modding-help message>
Fwiw, afaik even if you didn't already have QoL on, I'm pretty sure you could enable it and use the file to make the .json file generate.
thanks, i'll see if this works
Is the custom knight mod should displaying the icons in the custom knight skin folder?
I saw someone have it, but I can't make it to display.
Does the skin work?
Nah, icons were disabled because they were buggy
If you can put on the skin it's working as intended
do i want to use randomizer 3 or 2?
3
I got one more question. When I put on the skin, sometimes the geo is displaying normally, sometimes it becomes black boxes...
To fix that, open the default skin folder and copy the geo.png file from it to the skin that's causing the issue
I don't exactly know which skin is causing the issue.
anyone here familiar with Hollow Twitch?
I can't seem to add a cooldown with !spikefloor without breaking the mod
Example, I was using Killer Whale skin, and after I kill a tiktik, the geo is normal, some seafoods. But when I restart the game, I use the skin (or another) again, it have the chance to show geo as black boxes.
It happens to skins that don't have the geo.png file
No, killer whale have.
oh yeah that is a common glitch that happens with custom knight even when the geo.png file exists. try to reload the room by going in and out
Yeah, I found that reload the room is the solution in some case. But sometime it won't work.
How do I install mods on mac? I have modinstaller 2, and when I check "Installed?" and "Enabled?", nothing really happens. And when I open HK, it doesn't show that the mods are installed
Is modding API downloaded?
And did the installer ask to show the hollow knight location?
why is decoration mod failing to load ;-;
How long did you wait after pressing installed?
How do I download it?
It didn't
@left isle
Scroll down and see if the installed box for modding API is checked
It shows out of date
I clicked it again and now it says installed and enabled
Oh that fixed it, I see the mods appearing in HK now
Thanks a lot!!
Yes
Also install mod common
Okay!
Can anyone help me with modding with mac? I've got the mod installer and I've opened it, but nothing is happening.
nvm I was using the wrong mod installer
Good day, im new here and i was wondering where do i put the skin files for the Custom knight mod on mac?, everything seems to be installed properly, ModCommon and Modding API Windows are installed.
o ok
Just add the skin folders like in the example
cool thank you very much @gloomy coral
How do I install impossible any
is there a mod which can give you pure nail
you can utilize the debug mod to achieve a similar result
I have it but what's the full result
''similar'' what's the full result if you do it?
give geo + give pale ore + noclip to nailsmith = pure nail
it's in the cheats menu when you press f1
towards city of tears, then towards the lower left area of the city, should be a somewhat open area with the nailsmith's house
I only got hollow knight 2-3 days ago
idk the areas lol
can you like
send a map
1 sec and i'll do
approximately (using https://scripterswar.com/hollowknight/map)
what's the pool part where your line begins called
the west entrance of city of tears, a small platforming part where you see hornet
is that where you use the crystal dash
you could, but intended is Mantis Claw
i linked it
I was there before but I didn't have the debug mod at the time so I was forced to go back lol
LOL
NOCLIPPING IS SO FUN
I got into city of tears by noclipping into the elevator
lmao
Which os?
And do you have any other mods downloaded?
Hello, I'm having issues with the ||Hollow Knight fight in regards to getting to any ending other than the Infection ending.|| I installed mods in the past, and I believe they have interfered with the fight, ||as Hornet will never show up in the fight allowing me to Dreamnail the Hollow Knight.|| I've uninstalled the entire API, but it still won't work. Any ideas?
isn't this ment to be in #hk-help
I tried there, but someone advised me to ask here, as he believed Mods may be the cause of the issue.
also where do i noclip after going to the stag station in city of tears to get to the nailsman
City storeroom?
Which mods did you download
I FOUND THE NAILSMANNNN
Screenshot your charms in game
Why are you using no clip on your first playthrough
idk
just to get to the nailsman
that' sall
won't use it anymore
I would recommend playing through the game before using mods and stuff
Everybody plays the game differently. This is Modding Help not "Please tell other people how to play the game"
There's enough chaff in this channel as it is
I wasn't trying to be rude
Like, I understand, and I agree
..just let me use mods on my 1st playthrough if I want to
But between people coming here with pirated copies of the game and other people not reading the Hollow Point readme, there's enough pointless text as it is.
Some people struggle and use mods to help them make the game easier. Some people just want to talk to everybody and see the story, or maybe just fight the bosses and can't do platforming. It's whatever.
@limber egret
Okay, good. What mods do you have?
I had Debug, ChildOfLight, IKG, and Grimmchild Upgrades. I uninstalled the Modding API entirely but it's still bugged.
What did you use debug for?
I used it to get the Void Heart.
IKG?
And to beat Radiant NKG
Maybe that is the problem
Might be
i think the problem is your save file
if so I may have to start a new save file, as when I get rid of the Void Heart with Debug, I end up with an unequipable placeholder charm, and I don't think I'm able to get the Void Heart legitimately, as the game already thinks I have it.
You can do this
Save edit your file to remove void heart ( charm 36) and then go through the normal route of getting void heart
Alright
My only issue with why that may not work is the fact that Hornet does appear Outside the Black Egg where you are able to speak with her, but never attacks the Hollow Knight.
So the flag for the Void Heart is active
The thing is void heart requires many things which ends in the birthplace sequence. Which isn't done in your save file so maybe that's why hornet doesn't enter
Perhaps. Welp, thanks for the help. Can't wait to die countless times in the White Palace xd.
Maybe try to get kingsoul and do the birthplace sequence and maybe she'll appear
Alright
i downloaded modding api 1221 and put it in my hk downpatched folder but when i try to launch hollow knight from that folder it pops up with a "failed to load mono" error message
Where did you put the modding API
in my hollow knight folder that contains hollow knight version 1221
although its a copy for practising
if it makes a difference
yup
for windows
which i am using
the "read me" says to put it in my steam folders but that doesnt work since its on different patches
Can you send the path you added the API or better just screenshot the managed folder
like this?

For where you installed the modding API
wdym
You want mods right?
yeah, i want the debug mod
and thats it
with save states
im following fireb0rns video on it
but he never says to download a debug mod so im guessing the modding api comes with it?
yes thats the one i downloaded
and then opened it with windows explorer and copied the files into the 1221 folder
Drop this file in the managed folder (inside hollow knight data)
and clicked replace files
And then in the managed folder make another folder called 'Mods' and add the debug mod to it
thats what im wondering
he never mentions it in the video
afaik
oh nvm he just says to open the game before to check and its already installed on his pc
just a sec lemme try to get it working
it might have popped up with the error since there were no mods installed
oh nope
it still pops up with the error
same exact one
the error comes from "hollow_knight_Data/Mono/mono.dll"
it says "(error = 126)"
but that file doesnt exist if i search for it
Which folder did you replace the hollow knight data or the managed?
Cuz I think I said managed before which was wrong
i only replaced hollow knight data
i think
ill create a new folder and try again
ah i see
it seems i paused the replacement on accident in the one before
so not all of the files were copied
Does it work now?
so maybe a weird request (and more of a question since I currently don't have a lot of funds) but is it possible to commission a custom HK sprite sheet?
Maybe ask in #modding-discussion
oke (didnt know what chat to put it in since art is also there XD)
could i get some help installing the api on my mac?
okay now how do i install my mods?
Click the installed? Checkbox next to it
i'm trying to do the bonfire mod and charmsoverhaul
hey, anyone have the link to download any radiance ?
Yes
also do i need to do a new save?
It’s recommended but not required for those mods
where do I need to put the file of any radiance ?
nvm I think I found it
it wasn't any lmao, anyone know the download link of any radiance ?
so i was playing modded and it worked great but then my game crashed and the UI got weird and i couldn't log into my save file. so i deleted hollow knight and re-download it and it works fine but now i cant play modded any help? the modinstaller says the mods are downloading but they aren't working pls help me
I have been having an issue with the mod installer that i don't understand :(
seems to be that the files that the installer uses are "in use by another process"
i've tried a bunch of different stuff to fix this, to no results
is this error known about?
what do you mean by
modinstaller says the mods are downloading but they aren't working
is the game open?
Nope
which os?
the top left corner on the main menu says nothing
in the modinstaller check if modding api is downloaded and enabled
idk what the problem is maybe wait for someone else to answer
sure thing
which modinstaller are you using?
try using modinstaller 2 for windows (in pins)
ooh
make sure the other mod installers are closed
this one
?
it says its out of date
yea give it some time especially after pressing installed
click the orange button next to installed
hehehe
this works
:) thanks
one final question though: how would I use this to install a new mod that i just downloaded?
a mod that's not in the modinstaller?
yep

Go to your save files path and delete all files with ModdingApi in their name
Yes, i think so

well i mean i'm definitely not

Do you mean the one fire made a video on?
yeah yeah
It’s a combination of my mod(custom pantheon) and the decoration master mod

I also made Uuwuu
I have caused suffering before and will continue to
No one can stop me
That's respectable
thank you so much! it works now thank you
can someone help me with modding i just wanna use one of those special skins but i dont know how to mod.
how could i make a mod where all enemies are gorb
look in the pins for the mod installer, you need to install CustomKnight and ModCommon
probably by coding it
I can't disable fullscreen is it related to the mods?
i believe modding api does that, try pressing Alt+Enter
sweet it works thank you
Does anyone know what mod causes Hk to be forced into full screen, and blocks the fullscreen setting from being switched off?
My mod list is
ModdingAPI
Benchwarp
DebugMod
CustomKnight
EnemyHPBar
ModCommon
moddingapi
do this
Huh.. but why does it do that?

Fair enough
Just seems like a pointless feature to me
i don't think it's intentional 
So is the Alt+Enter hotkey separate from the mod?
yeah, its universal for unity games iirc
Ohhh alright, thanks
Btw, when you 'disable' a mod within ModInstaller, what does it change in the files to make that happen? Is the file just moved outside the modfolder?
the file is moved from <HKInstall>/Hollow_knight_data/managed/mods to <HKInstall>/Hollow_knight_data/managed/mods/disabled
Gotcha, thanks!!
Oh, huh
Its saying the mod failed to load, and to check modlog.txt
I looked at the most recent modlog, and the mod was barely mentioned
can you screen shot the main menu screen
Here, is this alright?
can you focus on the part above "achievments"
hi, I'm having trouble making the decorations mod work, after installing it and opening the game it doesn't create the global.json file and says fail to load
any help would be greatly appreciated thanks 🙂
You don't have QoL and vasi
it says the same thing with QoL and vasi enabled
yeah, i'm having the same problem as georgie
i'm trying to make sense of the modlog.txt errors but its going way over my head
ive tried uninstalling and doing a clean install, doesnt change anything
heres the modlog when launching with qol and vasi in case it makes a difference
Did that help?
hey Ari you're on windows right?
the shortcut to take a screenshot should be Windows + Shift + S
for me, that is. i'm not sure it'll work on everything
I know, I lost internet on my pc, so I sent a photo instead
oh cool :)
@gloomy coral just tried, nothing changes
did you close the game, download this file, replace the one in the managed folder and open the game and checked?
just reinstalled the mods from scratch after moving the file and it worked, thanks a ton!
why is it that when i uninstall mods in the modinstaller, they get added back after relaunch modinstaller?
is there any reason twitchmod wouldn't be working right now? it seems to work fine in logs/files, generating command list and everything, but inputting commands isn't working
your settings file might be wrong then
format for tokens is
"TwitchToken': "[token]",
right? no oauth: behind it?
Hey I’m trying to download a killer whale skin but it isn’t working all my other skins work fine any ideas why this one may not work?
Skin folder's formatted wrong. The spritesheet names need to be the same as those in the default folder
I think killer whale has an archive of some sort that you gotta extract
Once you start a new debug save, is there a way to just tp to watcher knights
hey so i just downloaded debug mod and it works until I try to open up a new save file I get to the ellegy for hollownest but then its just a black screen and ideas

ok one sec
now, is the mod of the
"AK-47" still available?
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages.
it didnt work
oh, now i get it, thanks!❤️
there were debug files of the files u told me to delete do u want me to delete those aswell
ok every time I delete the files they come back
yeah they come back when you launch the game
hmmm ok i just deleted them while i was in game and it still didnt work
Does debug have any dependencies?
on 1221 i don't believe so
Oh, 1221
hmm its still not working
So I'm getting back into hollow knight after a long time and have no idea what a bunch of the old mods I downloaded were. What are some base mods that help with general compatability and keeping things stable?
the dependency mods are: modcommon, vasi, serecore, sfcore
(can't think of any others off the top of my head)
Thanks!
if you haven't done anything with modding for like 6 months, you need to redownload the installer
I did
It's been at least 1.5 years since I touched this game, luckily my old mod installer file wasn't working so i was forced to redownload it
and you got it from here yeah?
Yeah
i install the ak-47 mod and i ccan't shoot, how can i do it, please?
read the readme
My game is breaking dramatically, when I start up a new save it will show only a geo mound and some rocks around it, I can hear the knight and even scroll the saves (wack as hell) but the screen won't move or work
Is it possible to mod HK on Switch? Everything in pins seemed to be PC only
I get this message upon trying to "revert back to unmodded"
I've closed the installer and reopened it, I've tried relocating HK as well but I always seem to get this message. If anyone knows exactly why this happens, do tell.
afaik, modding is only possible on console if you jailbreak it or something
Did you verify integrity of your game files?
Go into steam or GoG and use the built in function to remove the mods
okie dokies thank you
The only mods I have enabled are benchwarp, hollowpoint, mod common, and qol. As far as I can tell none of these should be breaking the game but it is so does anyone have a fix?
Can I mod hollow knight with the xbox version?
only when dualbooting linux
Is that a yes or no in simple words?
No, only pc works
Sorry, I have the windows version of hollow knight
I downloaded it off the xbox app on my PC
Are mods supported on the windows version?
They said only steam and gog versions are guaranteed to work so i dunno, why not try it
technically yes, but you would need to dualboot the linux operating system, so it's not simple for most
Can someone help me a bit? I tried to put the debug mod on and now my game won't open
Its stuck on the black screen with only the mouse from the game spearing
Not loading and no anything
It's been like that for like 10 minutes
do you play with controller
Keyboard
Should I try to remove them and then try again?
Like
Remove completly from the computer
you dont have to remove your keyboard from your computer
if you want to
Probably missing a dependency. Try installing vasi, or checking readmes to see what dependencies all those have
I have an issue with the hollow point mod it's broken, my gun won't work. I switch to the gun and it will fire once every few seconds but no bullet come and it does no damage.
did you follow the readme
Yes
so you started the game without the mod enabled, then quit out, then enabled the mod
No.... Okay it said to back up the game files making me think that I needed to start new ones, ugh. Why am I so bad at reading. Thank you
Yeah, thank you so much though.
i can't install the Poorly Translated mod
it keeps giving me an error

what a weird location to put the save
it's the default persistent saves location for unity: it's constant across all installs, and specific to the user
if you hold down and right, pressing dash makes you dash right rather than down
because people don't like accidentally dashing down into spikes
SpeedBroke?
i'd recommend reading the readme
speedbroke is a set of changes that attempt to reverse changes TC made between patch 1221 and current patch
ah
yeah like
that's the thing
I don't know what change corresponds to what line of text code
sorry
like for example
what does this do?
can I deactivate it?
doesn't matter, works without changing it
just change SkipCutscenes to false and if you want to disable anything else you can do that too
yeah, but I'm just unsure if it's safe to do so
or if it will break the mod installation
Is there a way to see what skins look like before downloading it?

Hey, does the debug mod have a function to take away masks/soul vessels? I want to practice WK for the 5 hour achieve and would rather use godhome than throw myself at it over and over
fair enough
don't use godhome to practice if you want to practice the ingame fight: make a new save, noclip or benchwarp towards watcher knights then kill them there
im not sure but you can always just modify your save file, there are loads of editors out there
Debug has a way to remove all the other upgrades I wouldn't have at that point, it's just the masks and vessels that I need to get rid of
yeah but the godhome fight is different anyway: there's an extra knight, and they have a different amount of HP
That's... somthing I hadn't considered
if you want to remove masks and vessels you can save edit, but again i'd just make a new save w/ debug and do the actual fight
Now that you mention the extra knight and the health difference, I'll probably do that
Thanks!

how do i re-enable mods after verifying game 
run modinstaller
is there a button on modinstaller that says "enable all installed mods"
click that then
it wworked 
so the modder told me vasi was outdated
and i updated vasi
but got this error
nvm i fixed it
yeah, that shows up if you still have the game open
hey when i try to add inferno king grimm it just doesnt appear in the mods folder or the game
nvm i fixed it but now its saying that decoration master failed to load
so
i dont know what to do about that
the mod is in the current version
do this, decorationmaster can't handle the might of new moddingapi
it doesn't work on a new save, have you tried quitting out and reloading the save
no 
mac
pin
hey, does anyone know how customknight works on mac?
it says that custom pantheon is failing to load and im not sure what i did wrong
it was working a couple of minuets ago
What mods are on
its a lot gimmie a sec
A screenshot of the main menu will do
Use mod installer to download custom knight mod and then add the skins to a folder like this

Thanks! but how do I get to the contents folder?
Look at the game files path above
Right click hollow_knight.app and click open package contents or something
Show me the CustomPantheon.globalsettings.json file in the same place
That worked, thanks so much!
Add a line at the end of it and add } to it
Then save it
Then it should work
If it doesn’t I will be angry bc my code doesn’t work
And I will have to edit the code
lol
just get someone to do it for you
🤔
I mean it is my mod. If anyone is going to do it, it might as well be me
Also I forgot if I uploaded the source

I see you have noticed the power of my nickname
AHAHAHAAHA IT WORKS IM A COMPUTER GOD
@wheat orchid thanks i wouldnt have been able to do it without you
Np
@grave violet
idk if its my debug messing around or my game I cant do dmg to thk
yes
I almost beat him with just using spells and minions
anyhow
- 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 nailDamage and see what the value is
it should be 21
when it opens your file explorer, put this on the top bar (like where the path is showing)
%AppData%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight
that's normal
yes
first close the game
then do these steps
- 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
make sure you did the edit
when i download its already the user1.da
dat*
so i yeet the old one out and yeet th nw one back in
yes
before you do that
take the old one and copy it to desktop just incase something goes wrong
do you still have debug downloaded?
and do these steps again with the new file
kk
and close the game
oooooh
i found the reason
quit dumb but i know hwo to fix it now
thanks anyways
im trying to play the impossible any% mod however im not able to manually install decoration master. (this is on mac) is there any way to do this
download the decoration master mod from this link
Then add this file into ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/hollow_knight.app/Contents/Resources/Data/Managed/Mods
Then drop the file below this message into ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/hollow_knight.app/Contents/Resources/Data/Managed
Hello, I am also trying to play impossible any%, however the map isn't loading and quality of life mod is not working. I'm not sure what to do
screenshot the main menu
you need vasi for qol, and you need to do the thing in the last message Mulhima linked for decomaster
thank you, that fixed the qol error, but there is still the decorations master error.
I think it's an error with the map? I threw the map files into the DecorationMasterData folder, is that correct?
yee
but if the map is wrong, the mod should still load
like the mod shouldnt show error on main menu cuz of a wrong map
so question me and my friend are trying to do multiplayer but its not working its not showing us and we are at the exact places like dirtmouth bench and such how can we fix this
do this
me or
no
ok
I may have a blue name but I'm not that fast 
lol
what do i do with the folder that holds all of the rooms and stuff. fireb0rn's video is confusing me
its because its from windows
whats a way to do it for mac??
what you can do it open the game with the decoration master mod installed and close the game.
then you'll see a folder named decration master data in the mods folder
add the json files to that
oh ok
https://youtu.be/fSOqacQx4Ls watch this video, and if it still doesn't work ask in the discord linked Inn the description
Here's my long awaited tutorial on how to use Hollow Knight's multiplayer mod. Keep in mind it is still unfinished! Shoutouts to Bob Fred for making the mod and RedFrog6002 for hosting the Discord server.

k thx
make sure to download the mods QoL, Vasi, Mod common and maybe debug
and do this step last
yes i have those. how do i get rid of the decorationmaster license thingy
what stuff?
in the video fireb0rn has a google drive or is that not available to the public
you can use the modinstaller
#modding-discussion pins
I installed an earlier version and now it's telling me it requires the later version
the decoration master data dll file is wrong
thank you for the help btw, I appreciate it 🙂
delete it and downlaod this one
that's the one I had in the first place, but Jamie said it was wrong
also, it shows the new api instead of the older one which is needed
when?
do this step again (not this step, the one below the message i replied to)
and make sure not to open modinstaller after you do this step (unless you wanna do it again)
I guess I got the api and version confused
it works. aight, ty soo much
I changed the decoration master data back but how do I downgrade the modding api?
this
This was one of the first things I did when I jumped in this discord.
if you run the modinstaller after doing this then it will reinstall the most recent api version
ohh. I didn't understand what they meant when Mulhima told me that. sorry.
Thank you for the help
hey i've just tried installing enemy randomizer with room + items randomizer, also Qot and it crashed with this log, do you know anything about it?
can you screenshot the main menu
hk
No i can't because it first starts loading, i can see the little knight loading animation and it crashes
i can send you the crash tho
what platform do you have hollow knight on?
steam
ok, right click on hk in steam > verify integrity of game files
aight give me 1sec
Error occurred at 2021-02-20_095442. D:\Hollow.Knight.Godmaster\Hollow Knight Godmaster\hollow_knight.exe 
is there a mod that makes the music in pantheon normal
aight i admit it's not legit but i've already bought the game 😢
i can try installing it on steam tho
delete the cracked files
if you have a legit copy of the game then use that 
before downloading on steam
does that mean something?
steam doesn't call the game folder Hollow Knight Godmaster
steam also stores external game libraries in a more complex file tree structure, unless you manually add the game as a non-steam game
eg
uhm... does lunatic radiance active in PoH ? 'cause I forgot to disable that mod
i dont think so
when I bind something in the debug menu to a key, is there a way to unbind it?

locate saves, locate everything debugmod.globalsettings, delete it
where do i go if im looking for a mod that apparently doesnt exist anymore lmao
which one?
any radiance. it was never released for mod installer, cant find a link anywhere, is it something even downloadable?
or was it just
kept in a small community
give me a sec, it's uploaded somewhere in this discord
ah. that is of course logical. thank you 
Hello, hoping someone can help.
I'm trying to run any% on 1.2.2.1 but keep getting an error with decoration master.
//edit - Running it via steam.
The log file shows me this
deco master isn't supposed to work on 1221
i have no idea what dependencies deco master has, but latest version yea
Legend. Thank you.
Hey guys I'm having kind of a problem with inferno king grimm. The sound effects are being kinda too loud. Like the boss's abilities. Lowering the volume to 0 and I can still hear the sounds really loudly
turn down the game's volume in volume mixer, then turn it back up in game
some sound effects ignore all audio settings
hi, everyone! Im trying to instal the ModInstaller, but when I try to open it up to verify my games location i just get a black box. can someone help? 😦
- Where did you get Hollow Knight
- Try moving your mod installer out of your downloads to something like the desktop.
got it on steam, and ill try that! ty
it worked, i was able to turn on some mods!!! tysm aaaa
cursed randomizer here i come
Have fun
hello, I just ran into a small problem. So, I've been using debug mod since last night, mostly for noclipping through WP and zooming in and out to get a good look around, but after I turn it off, none of the switches work. Like, I'll hit them and it does nothing.
how do I fix that?
pc ? mac ? linux ?
mac
go on the mod files
ok
Switches in the white palace?
switch as in I'll hit one of these and nothing happens
It's supposed to open a gate next to the elevator
I did turn it off
yes
what is on ?
It doesn't really do much other than that
nothing pretty much except hollow point, but I've full on uninstalled it last night and still wasn't working
hollow point, not debug
hm
I mean, I know I can just noclip through the doors anyways lmao
yeah
it's just in case I run into the problem again or something
The thing is Yiu need to hit 2 switches to open the gate next to the elevator
You might have only hit one
well time to fly my ass over to the other switch then
nah the other one ain't working either
Did the gate for the elevator open?
Are you hitting with nail?
by all I also mean these
yes, and nothing else
I mean if your nocliping go all in
lmao
Dont let some stupid door stop you
yeahhhhhhhh
press f1: is your nail damage set to 0
let's fucking go
maybe I accidentally pressed something? let me see
Look on the left side
yeah the game doesn't hit levers when nail damage is at 0
you presumably hit the hotkey to decrease nail damage
How is this the second time someone has done this today
what nail do you have
pure nail
press the increase nail damage keybind until your damage = 21
wait I'm going to turn hollow point off because that actually increases the scaling
is lunatic radiance on the installer
ight
Randomizer, Waterways top left Bluggsac location without claw and with coiled nail, how?
(on a related note, how come I can't activate cheats all of a sudden?) >_>;
Never mind, I thought of the wrong location
Gosh in randomizer the bluggsacs are already dead so they don't make any noise and I keep forgetting which is which
Why tf do i suddenly heal instantly without needing soul? I downloaded inferno grimm, it didnt work, and now i have some weird unlimited heal hacks that i dont want
i've removed all mods and it still doesnt fix it
Which other mods did you download?
I had hollow point earlier, benchwarp and debug to show my friend the ending of path of pain
It might be hollow point because something similar happened when i used it earlier. But ive since uninstalled all mods
And its only on that one save file
not on my other ones
i cant find the readme file
do you mind sending a screenshot?
Where can i find my save file?

I edited the focus needed to heal value back to 33. What do i do now? Do i have to remove the version of my save where it is 3 soul needed?
I edited in a json file
i dont really know what that means bc ive never done things like this before
youre fine now
you edited back to 33 right? show
I dont know and yes
If you disabled QoL the you have to use a website to save edit
There is no button in notepad for saving unless you click file and then the button there
cant find
i think its saved bc whenever i open it back up its still at 33
but the healing in the game is still fucked
did you close the game and re-open
Yeah
multiple times now
Fuck yes it worked now
i dont know why because i did nothing and suddenly it worked
aight thanks for the help guys 😄
For the hollow point the spells aren't working correctly, my descending dark isn't triggering also the nail art seems to act like usual which is very strange.
Anyone know what might have broken the mod like this?
are you using quick cast
No, what is that
mod isn't broken. you're using the wrong button
was working before
Any idea what might be wrong with the nail arts though?
It said that the nail arts are changed to provide an option when out of ammo.
Yea so you charge it and it shoots a blade
For dash slash
Other 2 I don't remember
Okay cool thanks
Is there any mod to improve fps?
modding api
Is that easy or dangerous?
its safe
um hello? i have an problem with the mod instaler?
do you
yeh. it makes my game stop working cose i cannot get safe files to stop loading
the game stops working cause you cannot get safe files to stop loading? what does this mean
do all your save slots say "loading..."?
ok get on general one ill show you
yes

i think the fix for that is going into your saves folder and deleting all files with "ModdingAPI.GlobalSettings" in their name
ok ill try
Anyone know how to fix the error where it says mod "FAILED TO LOAD! Check ModLog.txt"?
I installed the Randomizer mod, assuming it would work as it had done before, but now it's stuck with this Error
Ahhh ok
Is QoL required? also do those mods interfere with multiplayer by any chance?
yes, no
hello i was wondering if you can make a custom hk boss
anything is possible
true
be more specific
it says it doesnt find the hollow knight files and always sais the mod "hollow point" is outdated
i think the hollow point thing is a bug which you can safely ignore (just hit no update)
and what are you trying to do when the first thing happens
i mostly put yes but now i put no
and when i revert back to unmodded it says vanilla hollow knight is unable to locate
did you buy the game through steam
yes
on steam there is an option to verify the integrity fo the game files, jsut google that and youll see how, it will verify and fail to locate 1 file that will be acquired on next launch, then launch the game and youll be vanilla
Hellow ! Um i was wondering if someone could help me with multiplayer mod. I've installed multiplayer client and multiplayer servant, hosted a network on Hamachi but i doesn't work
Could i have a solution ?
what other steps did you take
Uh none ?
when you get in game you have to connect
Oh yes i did that
