Follow fireborns guide
The only guide I can find of his is the tech guide he linked, which doesn't help. I have the files downloaded, I just can't figure out how to make them work. Do I need to keep the mod zipped or something?
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.
DOWNLOADS:
https://github.com/a2659802/HollowKnight.Decoration/releases
Under "Assets", download DecorationMaster.dll.
When I follow his links, I dont get anything called decorationmanster.dll, I get Hollowknight.decoration-0.40
and installing it does nothing
what button to turn page in more saves
]
https://github.com/a2659802/HollowKnight.Decoration/releases this is the first link in the description
found the issue, I had downloaded the source code instead of the dll at the very beginning, then forgot there had been more than one thing there. Looked everywhere else for the problem, lol.
So the pinned message says to delete the "modinstaller" thing in %appdata% if it says it can't find Hollow Knight, well when I try that, %appdata% has no modinstaller file... I have no idea what to do, I already tried and deleted modinstaller and reinstalled it and its still the same, help
it's not in %appdata%
Pinned message says it is or something
copy this into the address bar %appdata%\..\Local
%appdata% points to roaming, not local
Ooh
Ah thanks
Another problem that could have been solved if I wasn't an absolute idiot
Check the pins
why are they so big wtf
so in debug mod how do i reset the nail damage back to default? cause im not sure if i have the default one
Can’t, you just increase or decrease
is there some sort of hp bar mod so i can test it then
Yes there is, it doesn't display the number of hp though. You can get the hp bar mod with mod installer.
How do you download impossible mod?
am i not able to use enemy rando with item rando?
nvm
enemy rando apparently didn't download
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.
DOWNLOADS:
https://github.com/a2659802/HollowKnight.Decoration/releases
Under "Assets", download DecorationMaster.dll.
I have downloaded it already, however, it is a zip instead of a dll file and doesn't work. In the description, it says "under assets, download DeccorationMaster.dll" but I can't even find the assets, and can't find DecorationMaster.dll
I have installed it using mod installer, but I can't even find the hollow knight data folder as shown in the video even after opening the game.
where did you download the game
steam
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\Mods
k so I've followed the instructions, and the problem seems to be that the mod has to be a dll file, but it isn't a dll file and I don't know how to fix that.
I have both
ok
done
then close the game
already done that
go to this
i tried to play multiplayer with my friend and i used hamachi we restarted the game twice and still dindt work
and there look for a folder named: DecorationMasterData
does having another mods effect it if we both have the same mods?
which mods do you have
did you wach this:
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.

this is the mods that he has
well there isnt a tutorial for the host tho
did you find it?
the dll file isn't even in my mods
so the mod isn't there and the file didn't show up
you have all whats needed so just look at this: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2368956017
can you screen your modinstaller
well we both connected to the IP of my hamachi network that he also connected with hamachi and we did a name we connected we tried to restart the game still didnt work
"Step 4:
We go to Hollow Knight, select the save in which you will play with your friends. Open the menu, enter your IPv4 from hamachi and name. Click connect. Thus, we connect to ourselves, or if in another way, we create a local server.
The most important thing is not to sit on a bench when someone connects to you or when you open a server."
oh
ok can you get the zip file and extract it to a folder
@spice bramble I'm pretty sure you downloaded the wrong file
So uh after installing the modinstaller, and any mods, and then when I turn Hollow Knight on, the game is bugged, like, there's no music, my save files aren't there, I can't do anything, help
ok
which mods
Tbh, I have no idea where the "saves" are

Looks like you connected, disconnected, connected again causing a socket error or something
Yes

ok
What’s with the bench thing?
Also btw I never saw a connection from your friend(might be fixed by a restart)

its not the best guide but it covers more of the host part
I see you are not on the multiplayer discord server
no

If so, where can I find it?
download the modinstaller for mac in the

What happens when you open modinstaller
Make sure they disabled their firewall or let hollow knight and port 26950 through
its ok it works sos
Hello I am new and I want to install a mod in Hollow Knight and I do not know what it is called "EnemyHPBar" and I have the Mod Manager I press "Install" I open the game and the mod does not appear.
Howdy. Can't seem to get a controller to work with mods. Works with the keyboard, Controller works without ModInstaller. Tried keeping it unplugged until Title Screen, no luck. On Mac 10.15.4, bought thru Steam, using Sony DS4
hello?
I have no idea I am new and I would like to help you :(
You probably have 1, in which case try pressing "enable all installed mods" on the bottom
I don't see any button that says
"install all" so I'm installing one by one and after that what do I do?
i need help finding the file directory for hk sprites folder, anyone know where it is?
Is it normal to experience the below after installing Mods API only with Custom Knight enabled?
- 1-3 frames input lag (keyboard)
- can't switch display mode to windowed
- can't change screen resolution
alt enter to change to windowed
try joy2key software
screenshot modinstaller
now with ModCommon, still no luck

@west bane
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages.
grab that one
enable all not install lol
no
at the bottom of the installer
s there a button that says "Enable all installed mods"
that's to reset
this is the button Someone is talking about
it either says this, or enable all installed mods
if it says "revert to unmodded" then you're good
if it says enable all mods, press it so it says revert to unmodded
I'm practicing my English, I'm sorry
I already press the button and I have the new version
okay then everything should work
also, you should get rid of art mods, unless you like playing without being able to read
Ok thanks I had no idea what the mod was doing
you can click the readme button to read what they do
yes .. I saw that some have an installation text like the one I want to install "EnemyHPBar"
for following the installation the game crashed..
is a controller plugged in
?
I'm asking if a controller is plugged in
as a reply to this
yes
If I have a Controller connected
Does it mean I can't play without a controller connected?
I am copying my data as it got corrupted
what
in step 4) Enter the hollow_knight_Data folder, enter the Managed folder, and paste the contents
of the zip file (Assembly-CSharp.dll and Assembly-CSharp.xml) into said Managed folder.
(Path: Hollow Knight \ hollow_knight_Data \ Managed -paste those in this folder)
I do that but when I do it and open the game it crashes and my files get corrupted for some reason and I can't start
why are you d oing that
On mod installation
bruh
but I don't get the "Bars"
yes. because you're doing weird shit
and you overwrote what the installer was doing
with something probably outdated
we have no idea what could be wrong with what you did
so to reset the game's files(not save files): go to steam, right click hollow knight, cick properties, click local files, click verify integrity of local files
I had already done that simply hit the button but nothing happened and then I heard that in a video that I don't remember that I had to click on "readme" and do the installation and if I want extra info about the mod since it said that some mods need to be installed
I already have the manual backup
did you do that after or before this
before
from a site we don't support
I was telling you to do it now....
so basically, you need to start the whole process over
set your game to vanilla, then run the new installer you got
ima go now
apparently I edited the wrong thing since I had to change other things after building
lol
I'll push
I just opened mine up to check since I saw what was in the dev chat
and no update to it. lol
just don't break auto updating....
?
like what happened in october
I only touched those strings, nothing else
yeah, I'm sure it's fine.
hey guys, been a long time since i last played hollow knight and trying to hop back into it. I have the game modded but cannot find the mod application to start the game and it's been awhile. Will the mods activate if i run the game normally? or what am i looking for?
Does anyone have the link from the mod installer to Windows 7? the mod installer just gives me the option to install mods manually
Yeah, you just open your game as normal
thanks tami. and where do i go to add/remove mods? i feel like i remember this tiny window that used to run alongside the game
?i
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages.
appreciate it. i already have it installed though and believe i have lost it >.>. haha sorry bout that. was pouring through my files and cannot for the life of me find it
i did see my mods when i booted up though
You can just search your computer for modinstaller
You also might have gotten rid of it. Deleting mod installer wouldn't turn off your mods
aaah okay. thank you! i searched for mod and then poured through all my game files and it never came up. the full name got it though.
you can still get another installer it should see all the mods you have installed
i got it. thank you both so much for your help! started watching the vtuber ina'nis start her playthrough of hollow knight and i always get an itch to play a game again if i see someone else playing it haha.
ill have to remember what i was doing last in the game haha. seems i left this playthrough off at the city of black tears with most of the map uncovered.
ive been having some problems recently related to HollowPoint. after installing it i got the focus bug that it states in its readme. After creating a backup of the game, someone here helped me with finding it and putting it into bloodorca (a save file editing site) where i can change the soul value of a focus from 9 back to the normal 33. But i cant save these changes for some reason and need some help
for reference, the download encrypted button at the bottom leads me to photodirector 10, which says it cant open the file because its not supported
you can try this method
- go to save files
- locate userX.json (with X being the save slot number from 1 - 4)
- ctrl+f "focusMP_amount"
- set the value to 33
i have the qol mod

cant find a saves folder
am i even in the right place
wait
is this the saves folder?
youll just edit it, ctrl+s to save, then launch the game and should be fine
thank you again lol
so I've got my custom sprites into Spritepacker and they seem to be working as intended, but when I go to the original atlas and check it doesn't seem to register that there are modified sprites
as such I can't get my sprites to show up in game, and I'd like to be able to do that so I know what I'm doing is working
so when you run spritepacker and pack the sprites, the Gen_[spritesheetname] that it makes doesn't have the modified sprites?
do you have a SpriteInfo.json in your atlases folder? I think something like that happened to me when that was missing
I don't think that the generated atlas has the modified sprite, and I'm not seeing a spriteinfo.json in my atlas folder
it also doesn't say that sprites have been modified when I click check in Spritepacker either
which spritesheet?
the knight sprite sheet, I'm attempting to replace the running animation
try putting this in there
ah, I was looking at the wrong spot, yeah it's working
awesome
Sorry! Steam.
Hey
if you have the game installed in a separate location to the default steam library, select the .../Hollow Knight folder (the one that contains hollow_knight.exe)
i just want a skin mod and guns
ohh!
i just have it in steam library
i think its on my desktop
yes i do
right click on hollow knight in steam
select properties > local files > browse local files
yeah so its a separate library
now when modinstaller asks for a folder, point to that folder
The modinstaller is saying I installed the Modcommon and Multiplayer Client, but I don't think it downloaded
I'm on Mac
I tried this before
and pointed to i think somewhere else
how do I make it redirect there
in the pins, there are instructions on how to reset the installer - do that
Ok
thanks
oh, that was for viderchia, idk for your thing
oops
wym you dont think it downloaded
Copy and paste the path into the address bar
(nothing displayed in pause menu)
Are you using a controller
No, keyboard
game files arent in appdata, but yeah what someone said
Go to your save files path and delete all files with ModdingApi in their name. If none exist, you didn’t install the ModdingApi in the installer
The folder called Hollow Knight
Aka the folder that you are viewing
Oh ok
how do I install it in the installer?
Are you on mod installer 1 or 2
2
i feel bad for someone lol
It looks like the game is on the d drive(at least the install you want to mod us) so no
No wait, g drive
It’s on the list smh
just the folder, NOT data right
I installed it though
someone is possessed of much patience
you sent this
I guess yes from your definition
Go back and look for it(if it says out of date, click the orange check to update it)

thank you
Np
very helpful
i am about as tech savy as an actual toaster so you're like IT lord to me
Speaking of toasters, I’m hungry
hey small problem
how do i look at custom knight skins easily
wont let me look at google drive preview
fireb0rn has some skin showcase videos, other than that download em ig
sad
hey
im watching fireb0rns video on downloading skins
and I used this for downloading laural knight skin
and its like this, not jsut a single file
do i extract into a filke
and if so what do i call it
I need help, does anyone know what to do?
also as a followup, I tried just making a new file, naming it 'Laural Knight by Raistly' and just playing
and it started loading mods, then crashed.
i downloaded a mod that messed with all my languages are messed up
any help with that? xd
when set to english its just a bunch of characters i cant read
extract the file and COPY all the PNG images and put them on steamapps > common > hollow knight > hollow knight data > managed > mods > custom knight and make a folder and PASTE all the images inside the new folder
it should look like this
know anything about my problem?
tryin now
did you install the artmod? i forgot the mod's name but its something along the lines of art
what mod did you install anyways?
HP bars
that should be correct
attempting to run
heads up there are 2 types of skins in laurel knight like different HUDS and ORBs and the one that will take place will be the one with the correct names
if you wanna switch to orbfull2 or hud2, just rename them to orbfull and hud
try to delete that
np
i require assistance
With?
the mod loader i'm using
Math homework
can anyone help me downpatch to the version 1.2.2.1?
?guides
i also require assistance, QoL mod doesnt want to work for some reason?
vasi
ah, thanks 👍
I'm hopeful this is the right place to ask, but if I do something like debug to give double jump/etc, will that cause the infection to spread, or do the wings have to be retrieved from the boss room to cause it? Namely, curious how modding those kinds of things will impact it?
Hey everyone, New to the discord but i actually have a problem also with getting new skins for Hollow Knight to work. i downloaded custom knight. i downloaded the skins from fthe google doc fire listed. and loaded up my game. i tried the first skin and it worked. 2nd skin. worked! but when i clicked the 3rd skin i downloaded then nothing happened. then when i tried to switch back to a skin i have already downloaded it failed and everything is just white blocks
You're missing modcommon, and/or your third skin folder is not formatted correctly, the files should have the same names as the default one
whats modcommon?
i also didnt change any names or anything like that from when i extracted the folders into the mod folder
so look at them
make sure they match how the default skin folder is set up
and modcommon is on the installer
oh. i have modcommon
ok. mightve fixed something. the folders i downloaded were folders inside folders. so i pulled those out and gonna retry
ok, nope. all still white boxes
You sure you got modcommon?
i double checked. it says its installed.
So I have the mod installer, what else do I need?
I am trying to use hollow point mod
Check its readme after that mod is installed? The program will have a button for the readme after installation.
so yeah, i have no idea what to do with this skins thing, if someone has any advice please @ me

Thats the exact video I followed. Didn't work
I did all of the steps. When I click a skinning game they are just all white boxes
Most likely you didn't set up the skin folders correctly
I unzipped them. Into the mods folder

Also, I just scrolled up and saw that they worked for a moment, and then stopped when you switched again
What other mods are you using?
Are you using Hollow Point, Light Bringer, or RedWing?
just this. this is the first time ive ever modded hollow knight
so all i have is custom knight and modcommon from the installer
Well I just re started hollow knight And tried one more time and, even though I changed nothing. It now works

Hey umm how do I like turn off the mods 🤷🏾♂️
In Mod Installer click Disable (while the game is closed).
uncheck install
also, verifying game files through steam will also do it
What version is your Mod Installer? 8.5.2 is afaik the latest.
it isn't?
nope
I downloaded mine from https://github.com/Ayugradow/ModInstaller/releases/
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages.
it's on 8.6.0
Huh, weird for it to not be released on the projects Github.
That explains why I couldn't see SereCore in the list.
why, when we host it somewhere else
the code is still up to date
PRs get pulled on it all the time
updating the releases page 273 times is.... a lot
It's just weird for the official project page to not host a compilation of the latest release.
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages.
this one
idk if im crazy or not but like, i have mods, so im asking about this game glitch here
latest release changes constantly
I found all the grubs and didnt get the charm from grubfather ._.
do you have the grub map
In any case the reason I had an out of date copy is because I was linked to it on The Nexus and from there I navigated to the projects Github with the expectation that the Releases page would have the latest version to download, a pretty sensible expectation I think.
yea
and grubfather is fat
like after he eats them
:|
What mods do you have
lets see
Debug menu, custom knight, and Randomizer 3 (but randomizer 3 is not part of this save)
Well that's probably why
Randomizer
Randomizer interrupts the processes for shops and things like the seer
And grub daddy
so i was trying to install the pantheon of nightmares but ended up withunreadable text in every part of the game. HELP
what should the modistaller path be?
what?
not sure though
ill check wait
You might have installed an Art mod which changes visuals.
The location of the games EXE file iirc.

is there a way to check how many times you upgraded your nail?
in base game, the inventory shows your nail
broken = 0, sharpened = 1, channeled = 2, coiled = 3, pure = 4 upgrades
each upgrade is +4 to the nail's 5 base damage
hey, i have no mod installed which involves this, but everytime i want to heal, it insta-heals without taking any soul. how do i revert this? the only mods i have on is custom knight, enemy hp bar and press g to dab. ( also modcommon and mod api )
did you previously use hollow point
follow these steps to edit your save back to normal
does this work with mac or is it only for pc?
also works with mac
okay thanks.
i fixed it thank you so much for the help
Just reverted back to unmodded to keep on playing on my first save but I focus super fast and only need half of the required soul

Good day everybody, can I ask for some help to manually install the Poorly Translated HK mod?
if you use modinstaller, poorly translated should already be on there iirc

Sorry to disturb, does anyone know about the mod boss realating to "the hand of the king" in dead cells?

Hey guys ! I just bought the game on steam to install some mods (been playing on Switch until now), but I can't play with my controller with the mods enabled. I've seen it's a known issue, but is there a way I can fix it? I'm using a PS4 controller (that is actually recognized as an Xbox controller by the game, but the inputs aren't registered) connected via USB on a recent Mac (mini m1). I'm having the exact same problem on my old macbook pro from 2014 too.
you may be able to use JoyToKey or similar to emulate keyboard inputs
Thanks, I'll try it out !
It actually works ! I just had to find a mac alternative to JoyToKey. I went for "Enjoyable" and everything's just fine, except some latency here and there. Still better than nothing tho 🙂 Thanks a lot
hello
i'm using the debug mod and messed up the keybindings, how do i unbind a key to a certain function?

go to Save Files, delete all files with DebugMod in their name
Good to know ! Thanks 🙂
Thanks! i'll restart soon to see if it works
anyone know how to use customknight
download modinstaller, download custom knight and mod common. add the folder with the png files to:
from the google drive with custom knight

thanks
I know you found another solution already, but if the latency spikes are a common problem you're having, you may want to just try Stream's built-in version. I'm not 100% sure that it's a feature on mac, but I assume it is- if you enter Big Picture Mode, then you can select the game, and click something like "manage settings", and they're should be controller settings. You can force games to recognize the controller as an Xbox controller, as well as make key-bind adjustments if necessary.
The only catch to using Steam's is that you must have the controller plugged in before launching the game, but in some cases people have an issue where the modded game doesn't load of you start with a controller plugged in.
what is the gun mod?
a mod that gives a gun

i have installed hollow point on the mod installer but it dosnt work
i see the mod i game but i dont have gun
Did you read the readme?
yes
did you start a new save?
yes
then you didn't read the readme 
i am gonna reread it
I feel like this link to the "extremely important" part of the HP readme should be a Dyno tag
Important Hollow Point info: https://github.com/TTacco/Hollow-Point#known-issues-extremely-important-to-read
it should probably be an auto response when someone mentions hollow point, gun mod or can't heal
i don't want to be annoying but how do i install mods?
is there a channel explaining?
download the mod installer
the pins of this channel
thanks
I would agree, except that 99% of the time auto responders are more obnoxious than they are helpful lol
any good mods i can use that dont mess up my pc
yo would someone mind telling me what the enemy randomizer dependency mods are?
Royal dreamer. 
Can u slide me the link
@gloomy coral
If you download it from the modinstaller it should also download the dependencies
It's in the modinstaller
alright thanks i got it to work
For some reason after I deleted the modinataller and re-downloaded it it doesn't work any more @gloomy coral 
Reset the installer the instructions are in the pins
i want to use the mods; QoL, Randomizer Mod 3.0, Randomapmod, and Itemchanger, but it says that they failed to load
how do i fix it?
you need their dependencies
modcommon, serecore, vasi
and if you don't need item changer
so i need to enable modcommon, serecore, and vasi?
Hello there, which mod is for the room randomizer?
randomizer 3
ok it worked, but how do i use the randomizer 3 mod?
grazzie
start a save
Seanprcore, is it still a thing for the randomizer 3?
see the pins
Can't find it on the app
ik, I just can't find it on the mod manager
ooooh
ok, thx
did it download other mods when you did that one
Don't think so, no.
I think you need modcommon for that one
Thats all I need, then?
if that's the only mod you want
Alrighty. Do I launch from Steam?
Doesn’t matter
No, just when I run it.
the game?
Wait, now its working.
Thank you!
Hello I already fixed the damaged files and somehow I can play normal and I already have the mod I want installed but it does not appear or it does not "activate" and I already have it activated
is there a button at the bottom of modinstaller that says "Enable all installed mods"
if so, press that button
I just got a mod manager error how do I get another one?
...can you say what error it is?
not because I closed the error and the program no longer opens for me
how do i download p6?
can you screenshot it please
do this and try again
Bruh don’t go off on your own doing stuff, we’ll have no idea on how to fix it
ok I already have the program running
is it possible to replace existing sprites with custom ones
like custom knight
except things that arent the knight
gotta make your own mod for that
but there are mods to look at for examples of how to do it, such as transtrans
how exactly would i use transteans as an example, all i have is a dll file
(im on a mac)
yes yes ik
thats not what i was ask-
Is there a collective place to download all the mods?
pins
oh okie thanks

And where do I place them when they are downloaded
I'm on a Mac as well
check the pins
searching github for transtrans isnt working lol
ah, apparently you can use https://radiance.host/apidocs/DnSpy.html to look at the code in the dll
looking at chat history not sure it's on github 🙃
you can ask katie nicely for the source code
ill try
Hello, I have a question, It is safe use external mods in steam? I mean, I have 90% of achievements and I don´t want to lose them for a skin You know?
you won't lose any achievements or anything
mods do not affect steam at all, you can still get achievements with mods on
only mod i'd warn against using on an existing save is hollow point, since it requires save editing to fix healing after uninstalling
why is it that when i do the steps to install mods, it doesnt install any mods
how do i create my own hollow knight skin? i know it takes a lot of time, but i wanna try
So for whatever reason
I can't play any of my mods
I have the modding api installed, any help?
`If your problem is not listed below, help us help you by doing the following:
- Give details about your problem, your operating system, and where you bought Hollow Knight
- Post a screenshot of your title screen including the entire upper left corner.
- Post the ModLog found at the save file directory, i.e. %APPDATA%..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\ for Windows`
Uhh, for some reason I cannot focus to heal, my focus button is dark even when at full soul and I tried disabling all mods
but I can still use spells and stuff
So im trying out that hollowpoint mod(gun mod) and whenever I load up mod installer it says that the version is outdated every single time. When I finally managed to get the mod working, the gun would always turn into a shotgun and wouldn't deal any damage. I need help with this ASAP, I also bought my copy off of steam
if it turns into a shotgun try save and quitting and then reloading the save
dont close the game
Did you use hollow point at all
yes I did but I've uninstalled and even went onto other saves that didn't use HP
Other saves are messed up too?
yes
And you didn’t use hollow point on them?
not on those saves
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Can someone tell me where is the "Enable all installed mods" button in Mod Manager?
Enables the ModdingApi
how?
None I just want to know how to activate that button
Ever heard of clicking it
Kind of what buttons are for
Anyways I’m going to YouTube now
the button does not appear
the "revert back to unmodded" button reverts back to unmodded
when you are unmodded it changes to "enable all installed mods"
bad wording, I know
?
do what it says
go to steam, right click > local files > verify integrity of game files
ok
that will uninstall modding api
OK just tell me what you are trying to do
I already understood sorry
All this time I wanted to install a mod called "EnemyHPBar" And when I install it and start the game the changes are not applied
OK can you screenshot the title screen of the game
yes, but complete?
yes the whole title screen
ok, the verification is over, I'm going to open the game
before that, reopen modinstaller
What does Modcommon do?
it's a dependency mod used by many other mods
is it like the minecraft forge as an example?
no, that would be modding api
it's basically just something that needs to be there for other mods to work correctly
ok I understand it perfectly and I already have it installed
now I open the game and send capture?
yes
looks fine
oh
ok
The mod was not installed or it does not work, the enemy's life bar does not appear
Is this a new save?
it's a new game
Try saving and quitting, then restarting the game then loading the save
ok
Anyways back to YouTube
I already did everything and nothing happened
did you download a hp bar skin?
No??
How to install mods on Hollow knight microsoft store version?
you cant
open game files → hollow knight data → managed → mods
and check if the skin is downlaaded
does it still not work?
I already tried everything first I tried to follow the steps in the installation text And the data was corrupted then I tried to install the mods again and it remains the same
I guess the Mod Manager would have to be updated
is there a non outdated form of Glass Soul?
The "Mod Manager" is literally just a simple installer. It just has a list of files, can download them, and then moves them between two folders depending on if you enable or disable the mod.
If you're data is "corrupting", then I'd be almost more worried about your hardware, tbh.
The files are fine since somehow I could not play I can install other mods because if it leaves me but that mod that I want to install does not "work"
AFAIK, this one is the most up-to-date:
#archived-modding-help message
Are there any special characters in your username on your computer?
Edit: It seems odd that only this mod is having an issue, when it seems to have installed correctly. I haven't heard of it being an issue with any HK mods, but I know in another game I've done modding with, mods can be made to incorrectly assume that all characters in a file path are american english characters.
When I have the mod installed in the game I can play it correctly
the hollow knight data somehow fixed it but when I install that mod it does not work for me or at the moment that one in specific since I did not try another
Install the Debug Mod and it works for me
what is the file path of this?
Hollow Knight Data
just send a screenshot of it
Managed
Mods
in the folder "Disabled" there is nothing and in the folder of the mod is the images
(Yeah, disabled is where mods are when you, well, disable them
for doing it quick without using the installer, you can just move them in and out of the folder)
(just like btw)
Ok...?
Is there a reason that you're specifically avoiding actually sending the screenshot that Mulhima was asking for?
I just took out the dlls files
why would you do that?
I was not avoiding anything and what photo? the address of hollow knight data?
Send a screenshot of the full path of your mod files
Like this:
Because if there's something odd about your path, then that could be the root of the issue
but it's hard to assess without actually seeing it lol
If you click the end of the box containing the path it'll change to a more traditional display which might be easier to fit in to a screenshot.
download the mod again
Has it had any other effects other then not working?
Cause when I have it I can't even pause anymore
I can play the game I will get to the first boss if something changes
I srugged it off to be a compatability issue

@west bane You're the only mod that appears to be completely online right now (well, not listed as away; and someone who is often in this channel)
I'm having a problem uninstalling mods from the mod installer. Whenever I uninstall a mod, modinstaller says they're uninstalled, but they come back immediately next time I open up modinstaller.
we are moderators
Huh, when someone put something else in their Google Drive trash I was given the option to make a copy but it seems that option isn't available in this case.
also already known about
I've got a question about how game crashes affect the mod installer, I asked this on reddit but couldn't get a reply. This is what I posted on reddit:
So, I've been using the Mod Installer for a long time. Recently, my computer crashed while playing. I opened it back up and instantly noticed that on the top left corner, there were no mods listed. Not only the mods, but the Mod API too. I tried to disable all the mods and re-direct the mod download path but... I couldn't fix it. Did anyone experience this issue, and can help me?
I had mods like ModCommon, QoL, Benchwarp, and was doing a Steel Soul run that I was recording. The game turned Chinese/Japanese when I opened it and had to navigate the settings blindly to change it back.
After posting this, I did things like re-starting my computer, deleting and re-downloading the installer, but none of them worked.
Please @ or DM if you find a solution.
Ah, I wasn't sure. And I wasn't sure who the best person to message was- but if it's already known about then, alrighty 👍
Thank you 
oh
screenshot title screen
Of the game?..
yes lol, also
You may want to make sure that you're running ModInstaller as Administrator. Other than that, you can just manually delete mods that you don't want, by navigating to the mods folder and deleting the .dll files for those mods.
Ah, pardon. I will be sending the screenshot this instant.
Where would the mods folder be located?

^ specifically, the Mods part is where the .dll files will be. If you "Disabled" and of them, then they'll be in the Disabled folder.
I don't know what to say lol
Thanks for that path! Is there a specific settings file that modinstaller uses to know what mods should be installed across startups?
mods arent save dependent if thats what you mean
I'm referring how modinstaller knows what mods are installed when I close the modinstaller app and when I start it up again.
it just looks in mods folder / disabled
when you disable a mod it's the equivalent of going and dragging the .dll from mods to disabled
its an installer and a glorified file manager if that makes sense
Uhh .. well I guess I'll have to wait right?
for?
can you screenshot your mods folder
the entire window
ill try to look for a solution
ok while i come back
Another question: I'm having trouble loading enemy randomizer. The enemies in king's path are the same as they are in vanilla. Other mods like benchwarp, debug menu, and randomizer v3 seem to work.
the main menu should have a button thats caleld like [LOAD RANDOMIZER], does it have that?
