are you using Mod Installer 2 or Mod Manager v8.6.0 by Gradow
Mod installer 2
yeah then it's just in the checklist
click the out of date box and it will update
(also if you're on windows it's recommended to use the other modinstaller)
What’s the other one
its in the pins
no it makes the boss significantly different
i would recommend reading the mod summaries in the pins
Oh
Sad
It should’ve just been uuwuu in the first place
Ok so I did the other one
What do I click now
Revert back to unmodded (obviously not) manually install mods change default install path or donate (sadly I don’t have money)
I’m just gonna click manually instal
I still have no idea what to do It sent me to files
Can someone give me the file for the killer whale custom skin? the link fireborn put links a website in a different language soi couldnt figure out how to download it.
And I booted up the game and it’s just a white rectangle
Oh no
Oh no I hope this isn’t permanent
Wait the white bar is doing something
that's a loading screen
YES MY GAME ISNT BROKEN
can anyone give file?
What happens if I load my old files
or direct me to the exact page
Will my old file break if I load it
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/172QgIw4oS64IjVdjpjX2xhKzO4BYC5TG this drive is in the pins btw
So I don’t have hollow point loaded meaning it won’t break?
do i have to extract the file or no? (killler whale custom skin)
probably 
yes you do. there is a guide on how to use customknight in the pins.
debugmod
And give items right
i would recommend reading the mod summaries document as i previously suggested 
if you do stuff on the old saves then those changes will remain
Ok
if you're really that worried, just back up your save files
Tysm for the help I really appreciate it

just copy user1.dat/user2.dat/etc. somewhere else
Ok
Honestly I really like this community
They are not really toxic and will help you out
Unless you ask how to beat a Boss then they’ll just say “beat it”
And last question are achievements disabled
no
Is there a way to do it
Fwiw, Achievements aren't disabled on Steam. They are on GOG
What do you mean?
you can use Steam Achievement Manager to get rid of the achievements you get while modded 
Ok is that on steam
...sure
On the app
its a separate application
Ok
hi got the custom knight mod working but some textures dont load in like the map is supposed to be different yet it isn't any info on this?
i need help finding the hollow point 1.0.0.0 link
does anyone know where the link is?
check the pins
nvm
That sounds like #hk-discussion
AFAIK, CustomKnight doesn't edit map files at all. Everything that it does edit is in the "default" skin folder.
kk
How do you upload a file or a sprite thing to custom knight and if anyone answers use reply since I’m gonna sleep so I can see it tommorow
can the game be modded if it was downloaded through the Xbox Game Pass and not through Steam?
damn, good to know
my game does not appear the game version and the mod it gets all buggy
so you want to add a skin to custom knight?
Yea
which mod did you download
which os?
Windows???
there's mac too btw
Ik but I am using windows
But instead my normal sprites right
why would you want normal sprites
Mod comonn and custom knight
screenshot your main menu
I wanna change my sprites
Using custom knight
But I don’t know how to upload anything too it
yea so go to google drive, find a skin you like then download, extract and take the folder with the png files and put the folder in Managed → mods → Custom Knight

cant find it
Hey man @gloomy coral

yep, cant find save file location. is there a chance its located elsewhere?
nope
I opened the installer and it didn't appear that I need to update I need to click on something?
Press win + r and then paste this
%AppData%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight
click on enable all mods
unavailable
are you on windows?
yep
which version
10
then idk why it shouldnt work
where are my savefiles?! haha
why is it trying to go to \Roaming\..\LocalLow 
could it be in steamcloud? if so is there a way to open it
type that in file explorer
or going to
C:\Users\username\AppData\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight
I don't see this option, I just see: Revert back to unmodded Manually install mods Change default install path
press revert back and then press the same button again
aight, found the location
or use modinstaller 2
if it doesnt work
i think i did it myself... ._.
I will choose modinstaller 2
?i

doesn't link modinstaller2 🥴
just checked, on a new savefile mod works.
i really wonder why the mod just disabled itself for the save it was on
so.... i cant continue with the mod i played even though it used to work?
if you send modlog then we can try to figure out why
the mod works and all... its just that it stopped working in a save it was on
hey which is the health bar mod?
ive been looking for it but i dont know which one is it
if anyone could help me out i would aprecciate it
It’s the one called enemy hp bar
is it in mod installer 2?
If you sent the modlog, we could probably find out why it doesn’t work on that save and fix it
They have the same mods
i think it fixed itself, i have no clue how, but the mod now works(!?) i just played and i turned itself on? i honestly have no clue. anyhow thx for the help
How (if I even can) can i reduce my max hp in the debug mod?
not in debug mod, but you can edit your save file to reduce your max hp

I have problem with my Decoration Master. When I launch HK it's now even showing it in left top corner. I don't know what to do
Screenshot the main menu of hk
True
see if other stuff in the mod works I guess ¯_(ツ)_/¯
What do u mean?
agreeLicense --> true
that's right.
ah ok, thank you
Pls read the readme of Hollow point
alright
does 1221 not have ps4 controller support?
is it possible to mod hollow knight on xbox?
no
Anyone know what mod would cause your nail to stop working properly?
I just started using the Randomizer, here's my mod list
Benchwarp
CustomKnight
ElderbugGod
EnemyRandomizer
LoadNormalizer
PlayerDataDump
here's a screenshot of what my nail arc looks like. It only swings like this now, and that frame is the complete arc
is it possible to change the file path of the modinstaller. if not can somebody please share how to reset it. (im on mac)
I can't find userx.fson
I want to turn my focus back

@chrome quartz the save files path
Ok
@frail vortex
thanks :)
does anyone know?
hmm
if it's not working you can just use ds4windows
whats that?
program that makes the ps4 controller emulate an xbox 360 controller which is recognized by pretty much any game with controller support
steam recognizes it and it works in other games
so im not sure why its happening
ill try turning on native controller input
nop didnt work
ill just use ds4windows
last night i installed the modding api and i got some mods working, but i just frogot where i put it, anyone have any idea of how i can find it on my computer
find what
the mod menu thing where you install mods
well, if you didn't move it, it's probably in downloads
Maybe try this #speedrunning message
otherwise, can't tell you. cuz I don't know where you moved files on your computer that I can't see
oh okay i thought that was just the installer i didnt want to run it again, ill give it a shot
im a little sumb with computers sorry and thanks for the help
hmm ok ill try
It's not a skin issue, but it always happens as soon as I enter the False night Area
doesnt work
Maybe elder bug mod mod idk
Or the playerdump (I doubt it tho) try disabling both and seeing if it still happens
it still doesnt work
even with ds4
Maybe try joy2key?
It's not ElderGod sadly..
Player data?
Nope
it only doesnt work on 1221. i tested it on both with debug and without, and celeste and current patch hollow knight both work with it. i trued changing the cable and its the same
i havent tried joy2key but i dont think that would fix the problem
since it specifically doesnt work for 1221
Theres no harm in trying
can be fixed by changing it to your main hk directory
and joy2key should work
changes inputs to keyboard ones
have you tried using your keyboard
so joy2key would absolutely work
only false knight, as far as I've seen. I no clipped to the left toward ancestral mound and it fixed itself there
reading comprehension ftw
thank you for calling me stupid, appreciate it
ask stupid questions, win stupid prizes
also why did they choose this font
there were ones that were also only joy2key, and the joytokey website looks sketchy af
better to be safe than sorry
is there any loadout i can take or do i have to assign each button one by one?
Ask #speedrunning
well i just assigned everything manually, it wasnt that bad tho
my up keys dont work
in the keyboard they do but through the controller they dont
even though i assigned them
and it seems to be only in hollow knight?
the program can see them and it works in notepad
so its not the controller
Can someone send me a video on how to make forces back to normal
oh
i fixed it
i connected the controller directly and it works (i was connecting it from a usb switch thing before)
its weird tho because a few days ago it worked with the usb switch
so idk
wdym by "forces back to normal"
just in time to not be able to play 
ho to set the modinstaller on hollow knight?

I got custom knight to work but skme files don’t work they just set the knight to well the knight
And thx Mulhima for the help
Your files aren't set up correctly.
Look at the images in the default folder and make sure that the file paths for your other skins are the same way.
Hello everyone! How do you install the Hollow Point mod?
download mod instaler and then make shure to show the program the way to the game
On github?
On the installer
i just found it prest instal and i have it instaled
How is the webpage named?
It's on the installer
You said you got customknight installed. Did you not use the installer for that?
I installed customknight ages ago
ok
You didn't answer my question
Misstyped mickely
oh
So now?
Yup, it's mondinstaller(1), I will have the other version somewhere
To your previous question

Got it already, thanks
Because I already have in my computer modinstaller, and I downloaded a new copy
i said i use modinstaler 2 cuz i have mac book
Hey, I'm new to the server and I wanted to know if someone could help me a little bit to play modded hollow knight
I don't even know how to install a mod in hollow knight x)
Check the pins
ye what he said
Oh yeah thanks

is it possible to install mods on console? (not PC). like could I put it on a usb and plug it into a ps4 and do some shit there? you’ll know more about it than I

I'm just trying to get modding api on the 1.4.3.2 patch, but it doesn't seem to be working. Is there any fix?
Is there anything i'm doing wrong?
the last screen is getting closer actually, where all your saves are "loading"

your saves should be there and the modding api should be there as well
Wot? By "zooming out of map", do you mean moving quickly, or zooming out to see more of the map. If it's the latter, then that's debug. If it's the former, then just benchwarp.
I've been working on this issue, no mod I remove seems to fix the issue. I restarted my playthrough but now the same nail glitch is happening at King's Pass. Does anyone have any ideas of what might be causing this, or how to prevent it from happening?
The nail still works on environmental objects besides geo rocks, where it has the same finicky area of attack as before
do you have serecore / qol / vasi cause they're not listed
quick question, how do i unlock jijis door in rando mod
i have hints on
and a simple key
by getting more keys
yes, my bad they're enabled as well
you're not allowed to use your first key on her door
can you screenshot your main menu
do i need to get 2 or use 1
1 is needed for waterways so the mod doesnt allow you to use the only one you have on jiji. if you have 2 or already unlocked waterways then you can open jiji
got it
I think you can go in the left maybe
Hey so I was interested in participating one of the challenges, and it requires that you use a premade save file. would adding that file to the saves folder override any of my current saves?
nope
actually yep im just being dumb
thx
Yes it will. If you don't want to lose the previous one, go to save files then take the userN.dat files (N is a number from 1-4 that represents save slot) and copy it somewhere else. So to back up to 2nd save slot you would take user2.dat and copy it somewhere else. Then take the new save file and rename it so that the N matches the one you backed up. (Eg rename it to user2.dat) then paste it into the saves folder
what about UserN.json and the other .dat.bak# files?
Dat.bak are backup files it shouldn't make a difference
alright
And userN.json are the files generated by QoL mod
Alright, thanks
Do I need mod common for hollow point
Doesn't hurt to install it
Reload the save
Ok
Hello I have a question, about the multiplayer mod. How do you connect to the same server?
Nothing
Read the readme
Hello, is there any way to decrease the max hp using debug mode?
Can someone help me with my modinstaller? it does not show any mods, only a "manual" button that opens up file search
Im tryna do multiplyer but everytime they join in i can see them but i dont see them move. They also can see me but im not moving. Is it just an internet issue or can it be fixed?
reset the modinstaller, how-to in the pins
make sure host is connected to themselves before client
thank you
So i meet you here as well...
thank you, but the loader still does not show anything when i start it
Then you're selecting the wrong file path
when you run the installer after resetting it, it should ask you a few questions about where your game files are
if you answer wrong, it won't be able to find your game
as a result, it will only show the "manual" button with a huge blank space.
i deleted the folder to reset it but it does not ask for a path again
which folder did you delete
and where is your installer
and where did you get the game
the folder was in appdata/local/temp/.net/modinstaller
i got the game on steam
the modinstaller is just on my desktop, its a .exe
so you deleted the wrong file then
%appdata%\..\Local
go here exactly
and delete "modinstaller"
dunno why you went into temp
there is no modinstaller folder in %appdata%..\Local, the only one i found was the one in temp, but makes sense that it does not work if i delete the wrong folder
the infinite hatchlings mod is a folder not a .dll what do i do?
Whom can I contact regarding the Skin Challenges besides other than Benji?
nvm
What are “palace totems” for the randomizer mod?
Totems in white palace
Hmm that would make white palace a lot more worth while and a bit more challenging. If you had to do it without hive blood any way. Path of pain get factored in too?
So I'm playing the Pale Prince mod and the game randomly crashes while mid fight (practicing in the Hall of Gods). This version of Pale Prince was the one included in the Nightmare Pantheon version. The mods I have are the ones included in the Nightmare Pantheon, custom knight, benchwarp, QoL, debug, pain of the path, the HP bar mod, and the press G to dab mod (for the memes). I'm wondering if anyone knows the cause of the crash, or if alternatively they can point me to where a crash report would be saved so I can give more information regarding the crash. No windows pops up while crashing, it just makes the windows error noise and closes the game

how do i load in a map?
im a mac user btw
ok another question, i already figured out the first one. is there a way to manually install mods in mod installer 2
Anyone here?
There's no button for it, but I believe you can navigate to your Hollow Knight install folder, and then go into Managed/Mods and drag the mods you want to install into there.
This isn't exactly the place for chatting :P
i was needing help thats why i was asking lol
I'm mostly poking fun; if you need help just ask your question and if someone is around and knows they'll help - otherwise you're just waiting for someone to answer which will take a lot longer.
What mod menu should I install?
mi2 seems to be doing fine getting past whatever caused the above paste. need to check to see if that framerate hiccup I got before I stopping messing around was a mod or just my outdated hardware acting up. thx for suggestion, zaliant. 
How to I make every enemy random in enemy rando? I've got it to work but every species is turned into the same random species and I want em all to be different
As far as I can tell from the readme, the two modes you can enable are Chaos Mode and Room Mode - Room mode will randomize every time you enter a room but it seems like each enemy type will be randomized to the same type. Chaos Mode will make it so it's truly random with no restrictions every time you enter a room.
How do I get chaos mode?
I have the room rando installed as well do I need to uninstall that
I'm not sure how to access the settings. I don't believe you need to uninstall room rando, but I've never used the Enemy Randomizer so I can't say for certain.

nevermind its working fine
i just have severe brain issues
which is the noclip and unloack abilityes mod?
debug? 🤔
i will try
Hi,
I have downloaded the Mod Installer 2 (on Mac) but I can't succeed to access the mods in the settings.
Do you know a proper way to open the mods ? I'd like to try the enemy randomizer
send a screenshot of your main menu
I know that I'm supposed to have the mods list there but I don't know how
what happens when you open the installer?
also before opening installer close your game and move the installer out of the downloads folder
The list of all the mods appear, with "enable" and "install"
scroll down and make sure that the installed and enabled boxes next to modding api are checked
Hmmm... On the 'installed' check, it is written 'Out of date'
But I just installed the ModInstaller 2 today
click the orange button
next to out of date
Indeed ! I lauched the game again and I have the mods list ! I'm happy
Thank you very much Mulhima 🙂
Now I have the mods in the options menu, it's turned on. But nothing happened.Do I need to do something else ?
Which mods did you install?
the enemy randomizer
I'm having trouble with enemy randomiser. At the moment, it says it's installed and has a little thing in the menu and it let's me turn on the no clip setting. I've got the following mods installed:
•Mod Common
•Modding API windows
•Vasi
•And of course Enemy Randomiser
hey, does anybody know how tp apply the custom knight skins? i've already downloaded the modinstaller and im having a little trouble on tryin' to find where to put the skin folder. help would be much appreciated. (im on mac)
Assuming you downloaded all the appropriate mods, go to your game files (?saves in this channel if you don't know where they are) and then right click (or whatever that is on Mac) on your Hollow Knight logo and click on the button that says "explore" or something similar. That will open it like a folder.
Go into hollow knight data/managed/mods/custom Knight and you should see a folder named "default", put your skins next to that folder. You must make sure that inside that new folder there is just images, no extra folders.
Sorry for repost but my post was burried:

I didn't reply because you haven't given an issue
Oops, the issue is when I start playing none of the enemies randomise
When you are starting your game there should be a load button for enemy Randomiser. (After you select the save file, I believe?)
it worked! thank you so much! :D
Does the translated game version count as a mod?
If so, is there any link to the working polish translation of hollow knight?
Sadly I think they work through the ModdingAPI, so they would in terms of speedrunning
You might have better luck in #archived-modding-development. I believe that's where I've seen most people discussing translations and things.
speedruns all use chinese, as it's the fastest language for text boxes
what tami means is that additional translations are added through a mod
🐌
translations with mods, who would do such a thing
this isnt a modding question, but does anybody have a google drive to the pure vessel/knight skin?
yes
on pins
@frail vortex
there aren't the UI, which is a private skin, but this part it public
the knight and the nail
there is also white cloak, if it is this one that you want
I've just re-downloaded ModInstaller.exe (I had debug mod before but couldn't find the installer) and deleted the app data for it because my hollow knight folder is on a different drive to the one it was on before, but every time I try to run it it installs vasi and then I get the error: "The process cannot access the file 'D:\tmp\HKmodinstaller/LICENSE' because it is being used by another process." I've tried restarting my PC, reinstalling the program, deleting the files in tmp, running as admin, but nothing is working. Can anyone help?
is the file in the downloads folder. if so then move it to desktop
also make sure the game is closed
so its not working?
Moved it to the desktop, still got the same issue
I have steam open, would that affect it?
I think it's working, no errors so far but I've not checked in game
Thanks for your help
Does someone know how to spawn an enemy with the debug mod?
you can't spawn enemies with debug. you can only duplicate the ones currently in the room
Oh ok, thanks for your response.
Can we make the grimm troupe come back cause i killed NKG before troupe master grimm so now i can't do P3
how ?
is mod console a main mod?
so i can delete it
I used noclip to go to the right and then just dream nailed NKG
thanks for saying
damn you have QoL?
yea
What's QoL?
the name of a mod
I don't think so

- set the value to true
- ctrl+f "killsGrimm"
- set the value to 0
- 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
not 100% sure but it could work
Thanks! I'm gonna test it rn
also before doing this, take the save and then move it somewhere else just incase somthing goes wrong
ok, thx
ctrl+f "gotGrimmNotch" and "foughtGrimm" and make sure they are true.
And the 2 values after "statueStateGrimm" ("hasBeenSeen" and "isUnlocked") are true
Do i set defeated Nightmare king to false?
leave it
ok
dont mess with it if you dont have it
Nice it worked thanks to you!

I’m thinking of doing the hollow knight impossible mod but I don’t know how to install it into the game can someone help?
get modinstaller, it's in the pins
there's going to be a list of mods, just click install on that one and enable it
I m i g h t be missing a step here
decorationmaster is not available through modinstaller, and i believe is still broken on the most recent version of modding api
wait, which question is that for
by "hollow knight impossible mod" im assuming impossible any%, which is a custom level using DecorationMaster
ah
It's fixed
oh cool
So just follow fireborns video
ayo and what about the whole redwing asset shit thing
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-04JcalmOtg& first 3 minutes of this video should cover it
bruh fireborn's going to release a fucking video on how to alter the laws of physics irl one day
for impossible any%, you will also need: Modcommon, QoL, Vasi and DebugMod
do I need anything special for it, since it has new cutscenes in it
what do you mean by "its not installing" 
so I go into modinstaller, redwing's all good, then I click install on the assets below, then it's done and I close the installer, and then I go back it and the assets don't show as installed
Will running the impossible any% custom level mess up my current save file
i'd recommend doing so on a new save
if you don't load old saves you're good
wait this isn't downpatching, yeah it won't mess up your save file, it will just have a bunch of saws everywhere 
if you go into your mods folder, are the files there?

Yes
If you open them
alright, let me see...
should be <game files>/hollow_knight_data/managed/mods
If you don't it shouldn't but back them up to be sure
unless you're on mac
I am on mac
{InstallPath}/Contents/Resources/Data/Managed/Mods
Right click on hollow knight.app to get to contents
might be an issue with modinstaller2 not working with mods w/ multiple files 
can redwing run?
I am playing with blackmoth... oh, yes, redwing is working perfectly
Nice
well
so the only issue is we need to yell at 56 to fix modinstaller2 
I'm just gonna pull a pro gamer move and watch the endings in the file
I personally feel pretty satisfied with how it is
I mean, again, I'm using a fucking mac
theres nothing wrong with it, the installer works perfectly
which isn't exactly the best idea
How do i put enemy randomizer in game

strangely enough, it doesn't seem to integrate to the game but it shouldn't be hard to fix seeing as how the files are there
So I downloaded the first mod installer and downloaded and everything and just gives me this error message:
nvm, it works now
how do i use the custom knight mod on mac?
download modinstaller and customknight
and mod common
then download skins and take the folder with the png files and add it to the correct folder
like this
to get to contents, go to game files and right click on hollow knight.app
ok thanks
Hiiiii, i have a little problem with some mods, now i can't use the mod hollow point because with that mod my character just crashes and the gun just don't works. With the room randomizer mod, all the mods just dissapear like if i didn't used any mod. When i can use mods, the soul just works bad and i can't heal me, it is really horrible because i really need to cure myself sometimes and the game just don't let me cure, and the last thing is that some of this things started when with the debug mod i pressed a thing, and with this thing all the debug mod menu was invisible
My bad luck with mods is very nice
where did you buy hollow knight
Me or julien :o?
if you've run hollow point on a save and then uninstalled it, then it won't let you heal
this message to fix your save file
Ohhhh :o
the rest of the issues sound like not having all the mods you need installed
Ok, thank you :D
also read the readme for hollow point, it probably was working 
Wait, wait, i need to delete my save where i play hollow knight with hollow point mod??????
no, if you want to fix that save follow the instructions in the message i referenced
it is not recommended to use hollow point on existing save files because it breaks them, requiring you to do this to fix it
Ohhh ok
The gun doesn't work on a new save so to use it on a new save, open the save and then reload it
Also what did you press in debug?
im trying to manually install decoration master to my mac. i put the decorationmaster.dll on the managed/mods folder in hollow knight, but when i open it, it doesnt show it as installed
is there something im missing?
did you replace Assembly-CSharp.dll?
look in the pins for ModInstaller2 and use it to install Modding API (Windows)
oh i did that already
can you screenshot the title screen of hk?
can you show the folder where you dragged decomaster in
That's not the right spot
i dont see your other mods there so
a
you should see QoL, debug, and vasi wherever you put decomaster
It's resources\managed\mods
^
uh
data
oop found it
Also the map is put wrong
If you open the game after installing the mod it should make a folder named decoration master data where you have to put the JSON files
this is totally unrelated to whats going on here but i think the mods i put corrupted the game. can any of you help me please?
Can you open the game?
ok i think it worked
describe your issue more
and what mods you have
i can open the game but i cant switch menu styles or get in to a save file
what mods did you install
is the license just going to be there forever
i cant remember
Screenshot the main menu
nvm its gone
It goes after opening save
uh, how do i load into a custom made map, i put the folder of the map inside of the decoration master folder, but when i opened a new save it didnt work
its either i forgot something or im just dumb
..
i did
Did you go to the area that is changed
Send a ss of where you put it
for context: its impossible any%
i got a few
Doesn't look like you have any mods
you put the folder there, not the json
ok im ultra dumb then
did you install benchwarp
yes
how to open debug menu?
f1
ok thanks im all set
how do i show my installer?
i know that
So screenshot it, win+shift+s for Windows and CMD+shift+4 for mac
or use snipping tool
(it's WIN+Shift+s iirc)
It's win?
yeah
Oh yea it is
for some reason installing skins don't work, i mean i have custom knight and it shows up in game, but when i try changing into it, it does not work
then you don't have modcommon, or your file structure of the skins is wrong
Its not the cleanest photo but it should work
okay cool
go to saves location. delete 4 files. moddingapi.globalsettings (2 files with this name) and benchwarp.globalsettings (2 files with this name)

It worked!
Also idt charm overhaul and hollow point play nicely together
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I have a number of compatibility concerns with what they have
but at least the game will run
last time I tried to use the multiplayer mod, my friend was frozen on my screen... how can I fix that?
I wasn't using wifi, and we tried restarting too
so do it again
and make sure your friend isn't on wifi

I tried the hollow point mod and it gave me the gun and stuff but it shoots extremely slow and does not do any damage, how does it work?
the readme gives details
I read the entire thing and I dont get it
i also seem to start with a different gun than everyone else who plays it
it seems to work now but why did it spawn me on coloseum of fools?
Ah the inability to read strikes again!
Turn off randomizer
open the game again
is there a list of what each mod does? trying to set it all up for the first time ehe

ok now it works thanks
I was installing mods just fine, but now I'm getting Central Directory Corrupt errors?
Any ideas?
gonna try manually installing
alrighty i got it
so what's happening is it put an empty zip of the mod in the mods folder
and once I deleted that it installed okay
So I have more saves enabled but does anyone know how I get to the other pages?
[ and ]
if you don't have a us keyboard layout, it should be the two keys on the same row as 'P', but to the right of it
I’m pressing them while I’m on the select profile page and nothings happening
how many pages does it say you have
It doesn’t I don’t thing the mods working it just has 4 save files
I’ll try to disable and enable it again to see it that fixes anything
Do you know if there’s any other mods I need to have installed with it to make it work
Never mind I just enabled a bunch of other mods and it’s working now
Thanks tho
me and my friend are trying to play multiplayer but it dos not seam to work
how do I go about setting up a multi world rando?
Ahhhh, my friend didn’t have the client side mod installed... I’m guessing that’s the problem?
Hi! I was wondering if I could get some help locating my Hollow knight files. I can find it with the windows+r method, but the file I'm looking for isn't available when I try to select the path for the modinstaller. any tips?

How do you open the launcher once it is in your hollow knight folder?
you double click it, and it doesn't need to be in your hk folder
whats the launcher called in files
modinstaller
ok thanks
did you close the game
yeah
you need that
did you read the readme
never mind i fixed it
now my textures are all glitching when i tried to use custom knight
I'm having trouble with enemy randomiser. At the moment, it says it's installed and has a little thing in the menu and it let's me turn on the no clip setting, but enemies aren't randomised I've got the following mods installed:
•Mod Common
•Modding API windows
•Vasi
•Debug Mod
•Benchwarp Mod
•And of course Enemy Randomiser
quit the game. load the game. press the load enemies button on title screen
Ooh, it's a button. Thanks
I think it's working thanks so much
I’m trying to use custom skins but every time I click on one in the pause menu and I leave the menu it doesn’t work
either you're missing modcommon, or you skin file structure is wrong
Ok, I’ll check both, thx.
question for the future
if i run something like a randomizer, does it only effect the saves I open while the mod is open
no mods will affect saves you don't open
for example I like to keep my main game save up cause I havent finished everything everything in it, but i wanna do things like room randos and stuff
randomizer 3 only affects saves you start w/ it enabled

check the pins
Alright
me who plays on switch: 😩
hi! I have a question about the custom knight mod. I have downloaded the mod, and a few skins, but I can't change my skin ingame. I watched a video by Fireborn, but his menu ingame is allot different from mine. Any tips?
I try to change my skin, but nothing happens.
did you install modcommon
yes, but it was disabled. Thank you!
could someone give me the customknight.dll?
i can't install that appears a error to me
can u give it to me, fr i search for the entire internet to try to find it
in the newest versions i mean
Hello, is there a folder with backup files? Like automatic ones, i didnt instal mods but i was told to come here

so i put the ip in but it won't connect me

the person with multiplayer server installed is the host
means the mod failed to load
install modcommon
youre probably missing modcommon

it will only let you connect if you have only the client installed

Like open it? When I open it nothing happens
open it using notepad
I open it but it doesn't give me an option to open it with notepad specifically
buy the game
right click the file, select "Open with..." then select notepad
the massive marked section saying KNOWN ISSUES (read this) or something to that effect
if that doesn't answer the question then we've horribly misunderstood your problem 
Ah ok
Gotta start it first with randomizer then activate hollowpoint
Uh come on all my mods aren't working, it's just vanilla hk
are you using modinstaller
run modinstaller then
and there should be a big massive button saying "enable all installed mods"
Mod manager is the modinstaller?
Oh yeah it is
Ok waiting for the random load
Yay it worked
Thanks Jamie hopefully I didn't kill too many of your brain cells
Can you use custom knight in 1.2.2.1?
no
ok thx
@sick mesa, you joined Randomizer Racer.
Hello, I'm having an issue with my mods. My entire computer crashed while I was installing some new CustomKnight skins (guess I should have closed the game first), and now I have my mods installed, the "mods" section shows up in my settings menu, but the mods don't show up in the top left corner of the home screen like they usually do, and when I enter my save, no debug menu, benchwarp, or anything. Anyone have any ideas?

It didn't work. I can send you a list of my installed mods if you need.
Benchwarp, CustomKnight, DebugMod, ModCommon, Modding API Windows, Multiplayer Client (Alpha Pre-Release), QoL, SereCore, and Vasi
So I am trying to mod Hollow Knight on Mac where the heck do I get the Managed folder
just use modinstaller2 
That’s what I’m using ):
the managed folder is already part of your game
do what zaliant said, but for benchwarp
I bought the game and it doesn’t appear
Not yet
