If I chose the wrong file path for the mods how do I change it?
.
HollowPoint mod by TTacco is broken. Gun doesn't work and there's strange 99999 number on screen. Is this a known issue?
did you try it on a new save
yes
did you read the readme
specifically the section headed Known Issues Extremely Important To Read
I just installed HK from scratch and started new save. No other mods enabled.
yes, I checked readme
oh, sorry, found in readme
This mod doesnt work on a new save, To fix this you must first create the new save, quit to main menu, and load the save again
solved
i have seen someone else who had this problem, but it didn't have a response so i will try asking again

hello! i have a question, it is possible to mod hollow knight on windows 10? since i i tried to install the modloader from 3 different sites (discord,modloader and nexusmod) and all 3 of them just don't open i click, try to run as an administrator but nothing.
what platform do you own hollow knight on
(also only download modinstaller from the discord, nexus and modloader are severely outdated)
thank you, it worked
How do I make a skin for custom knight using krita?

“If I chose the wrong file path for the mods how do I change it?” I asked this earlier but forgot to mention that I am using ModInstaller2 (I tried what was recommended and it didn’t work).
iirc modinstaller2 just has a button no?
What was recommended before was what is in the pins, and I don’t think there is a button
modinstaller2 setting should be in AppData
HKInstallerSettings.json in %APPDATA%
delete that
That worked, thank you!
Can I use krita and sprite packer to make my sprites for my skin and then move the sprite sheet into the custom knight mod folder?
yes that is how custom knight works
How do I use sprite packer in krita?
so i was installing modinstaller and planning on using it on the xbox gamepass version (on pc) however that ended up not working, (something to do with not being able to access the files)and i decided to properly buy hk on steam, which i did and now i cant change the folder onto the hollow_knight_data folder
I'm on mac and when I try to open the new mod installer it doesn't, the mod installer one can't be opened because it is damaged or incomplete, the mod installer 2 terminal file comes up with a long error message
How do I use sprite packer with krita?
this is what appears when i try to open it up
Thats the same error that pops up for me
i open modinstaller 2 and it said this
Is the modinstaller having problems RN? I'm having an uncommon error of "unable to download mod list", and I don't know why this pops up
Me and my friend are also having this problem
I was just about to say that
If this is happeing to all of us I guess it's something with the server of the application? I dont know
I think it might be bugged or down(?) right now, seeing as everyone is having this problem
Yea probably
Yeah I guess they will fix it ASAP
between modinstaller and modinstaller 2 which one should i use
modinstaller2
How do I use sprite packer with krita? pls help ;-;
the mod is down ? i cant access it
Move the mod installer from the downloads folder
Make sure your downloading the one for mac (the second pin)
it already in download folder :v
and tried to move to other folder
How do I use sprite packer with krita?

The same thing appears to me
Ah good to see I'm not the only one who's isn't working right now. I thought I had broken something
Jesus, every time a press to close the message it multiplies
ok since everyone is having trouble w/ modinstaller rn:
temporary fix build for windows 7 users, use if the modinstaller fails to grab the download list (note updates are disabled on this version): #archived-modding-development message
might work, might not 
hell
Yeah that new link gives me this
incredible 
give me like 10 minutes and i'll see if i can fix the issues and make a non-updating version
When I was trying to install this earlier through Nexus and I clicked on the mod list, it sent me to a google doc where I got an error saying it was in the owners trash

could that be causing all of this?
don't use nexus
K, will try it later, thks. Now I will see if a can close this shit ton of windows
use the version from pins
there is no modinstaller file in the local part of appdata
Yea, I tried that version in the pins both installer and installer2 and installer gives me the can't find error and 2 just doesn't open
^Same
all installer is broken now
u at least know since we are talking about it
fixed
oh it was modlinks borked 
yub it worked thanks
Awesome, thank you for fixing it so quickly! 
so good to hear it's not my fault
Joined the server to thank you for fixing it so quickly, excited to try this
How do I use sprite packer with krita? someone pls help ;-;
can I mod hollow knight if i bought it on the microsoft store or does it have to be steam?
I still cant choose my hollow_knight_data file for modinstaller
wdym scar
so i was installing modinstaller and planning on using it on the xbox gamepass version (on pc) however that ended up not working, (something to do with not being able to access the files)and i decided to properly buy hk on steam, which i did and now i cant change the folder onto the hollow_knight_data folder
ight so i am new to hk modding (and modding in general that is) but i am here asking a very obvious question
is the hk code open source?
nope
No

im using modinstaller 2
so the xbox gamepass version doesn't work for modding then
reset modinstaller

No
How do I use sprite packer with krita? someone pls help ;-;
i deleted all folders and files related to modinstaller
i wish it let me set the filepath again
I'm using pure nail with 21 damage
are there any solutions to my problem?
which modinstaller are you using
modinstaller 2
thank you so much!
amazing
i had to look at source code to find that

nice false dichotomy
Probably have a bind set to the attack key
mick can you add this to the reset modinstaller pin btw;
Windows Modinstaller2
Go to %APPDATA% and delete HKInstallerSettings.json
I changed it, but I'll ad the json part
where do i get modinstaller
eh.... I'll just copy what you made
where is the impossible any%
Is there a way to find the game's path if it is not install at the default location?
if through steam, right click > properties > local files > browse local files...
i think it's similar on gog galaxy but not sure
I mean in a c# script
@wheat orchid it's true, it's my bind set, can I fix it or I need to play with another one?
Go to your save files path and delete all files with debug in their name to reset the binds

I mean, on the installer what I do is check all drives for the default locations
Checking every drive in every location, aka.... search, would take too long to be reasonable
a targeted check is way faster
Yes
and will catch the vast majority of cases
in other cases, people can select where the game is at
That's why there's a manual selection button too
click the box for modding api
since the mod installer actually asked the player for the game's path, can i somehow "ask" the installer for that?
Wdym
check all paths for the correct one will obviously take a long time
so I wondered can I find it somewhere
I can’t open my sprite packer anymore it just happened out of random
yes, through the method jamie told you
eli we can't help you if you don't know where your game is installed and it's not at a default location, other than tell you to find where it's installed
steam and GOG can lead you right to where the game install is through properties
I can’t open my sprite packer anymore it just happened out of random
well I do know where my game is installed, but i'm not going to hardcode the path in my script
yes

oh sure, i confused what's this channel is for
I can’t open my sprite packer anymore it just happened out of random
we've seen the message 
I must admit I didn't see the description
pls stop spamming. If your question isn't being answered, it's most likely because of how it is framed
Sorry won’t do it again
Ah, yeah that'd do it lol. IIRC, clicking "start" is what actually sets the group's seed, so if multiple people click it at the same time, then it's going to try generating different group seeds for each person. Glad you fixed it 
I installed the Hollow Point mod but Focus does not seem to work, neither the gun
did you read the readme
I tried to use the mod installer but it won't open- it opened before but it won't now
ok I'll check that

Alright, I'll try it
(assuming default install path, you can also reach it by right clicking HK in steam > properties > local files > browse local files)
is it possible to mod an old version of the game (especially the 1.2.2.1) ?
yes, but not through modinstaller
yep i saw this :/
and there are very few mods available, specifically debugmod and timermod are the only ones maintained
hmm, now it wants access to the folder
How do I give the installer access to the folder?
move the installer onto your desktop, and try running with administrator priveleges
I can't get the mod installer to work- well it opens but it only shows manual download
okay thanks ! where could I find how to mod older versions ?
Alright, that worked. Thank you!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0dDvM3zSyQ don't use the links in the descriptions, instead search for modding api / debugmod in #resources for the most up to date versions
uh
What OS are you on?
What version of Hollow Knight (where did you get it from).
Did you just the mod Installer in the pins here?

hey, I'm trying to use the ModInstaller, but it no longer works properly for me
whenever i run it it tells me it "requires the most recent stable version to run", but I have verified game integrity and it still gives me this error?
omg nevermind it all suddenly magically worked
so, after my friend installed the mods and create a new game, he got black screen in the end of the intro cutscene
then, he closed the game and tried to open modinstaller
he got blue screened
and this happens everytime he try to open again
any tips?
Mods remove the Intro cutscene afaik. If they had that scene, then they didn't have mods installed correctly.
Edit: I didn't see the "new game" part. I was thinking the normal game-loading scene.
Make sure that they have the correct mod installer from here
?i
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages.
That being said, mods still shouldn't be causing a BSoD.
qol removes intro cutscene, modding api itself does not
Which version of HK do they have (IE: Where did they get it from)?
OS are they on?
Which installer are they using?
What mods are they using?
Can they send a screenshot of their main menu?
Yeah, I crossed out my text because I realized I mixed up what they were talking about. API removes the Team Cherry logo when starting the game, and replaces it with the loading bar. That's what I was originally thinking they meant.
Everyone knows that the
is a cutscene.. right?
Where did they get it from
steam?
the installer is that i got in the steam guides
radiance.host or something like that
mods: multiplayer client, custom knight and mod common
he's taking the screenshot now
is there any infinite geo mod? i'm a bit lazy for grinding, and i need some geo to buy unbreakable strength
You can either edit your save file (there's an online editor, or you can generate a writable save using QoL), or you can use debug to give yourself lots of geo

Is a controller plugged in
nope
Hmm
If it’s not currently connected it should be fine
hmm
When did this start happening?
i'm not sure. i mostly play on my switch tbh, or use debug 1.2.2.1. i remember first noticing this today
i think it was all working somewhat recently
Is a 1.2.2.1 ver of debug installed in this instance of the game?
i don't believe so
Does the installer ask you to update it
no
Ok
Which installer are you using
That’s old
That's old
oh 🤔
Got it from nexus?
Check the pins
i dont remember where i got it, might've been messed up when i was playing with fire lmfao
with all of his mod stuff
ty mickely!
I don’t think fire gives out old installers
nah, i don't mean that. i just mean a lot of stuff got turned around when we were doing mod stuff lol
now its working

wonder why outdated mod installer worked so long before breaking
it's just that well-coded I guess
Do mods work on older versions added by downpatching?
Can I just use normal mod installer or no
Is there a any way for me to plau mulitplayer with Randomizer 3? Because when I tried it, we coudnt see eachother...
check the pins
no
do you have to install your own custom skins for the Custom knight mod or do they get installed with the mod, if you have to install them by themselves, how do you install them?
You have to install them yourselves. Go here for skins ||https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/172QgIw4oS64IjVdjpjX2xhKzO4BYC5TG||
To install them, download the zip and unzip in your HK mod path (You should place the unzipped folder in a folder named "CustomKnight")
^^^^
Remember to unzip the folder containing all image files
Do i relaunch the game and launcher after it?
You only need to relaunch the game
kk, thanks a lot :D
np
Is it possible to multiplayer with Randomizer 3 using the multiplayer mod and Hamachi?
What do i do if this happens
is that possible to recolor the skin mods ?
im going to try it hahaaa
hahaahahha it works
hahaahhaahahhaha
You may have installed the skins wrong.
Go to your mods folder, go to CustomKnight, and look at how the Default skin is setup
Any skins you install need to be setup the same way
i got another one working, just not that one, but ty
help me intall mod installer pls idk the file location
which folder should i put it in?
desktop
ModInstaller doesn't install anything. It's just a program that runs when you click it. You can put it just about anywhere, but it works best for most people when you run it from your Desktop
(And it has a habit of not working correctly if run from the Downloads folder)

Hey I tried to install hollow point and it started glitching so I uninstalled it,
but now I can't heal does anyone know if there's a way to fix this?
if you had the QoL Mod already installed:
- go to save files
- locate
userX.json(with X being the save slot number from 1 - 4) - ctrl+f "focusMP_amount"
- set the value to 33
if you don't have the QoL Mod: - https://bloodorca.github.io/hollow/
- go to save files
- locate
userX.dat(with X being the save slot number from 1 - 4) - upload that to the website
- ctrl+f "focusMP_amount"
- set the value to 33
- download encrypted (PC)
- rename it to the original name (will be downloaded as
user1.dat, rename if you want slot 2, 3 or 4 to be edited) - put it back to the save file folder"
Wdym by glitching?
gun just wouldn't fire but now I kinda dont wanna get the mod anymore
but thank you so much for your help
Next time, read the ReadMe when the title of the mod literally tells you to :P
I mean I tried but I couldn't find the thing
You got to reload the save
In the modinstaller there's a button to read the readme
oh I thought it would be a file my bad
It is a file
How do you use debug mod?
read the readme
I used a mod installer
there isnt a readme?

Where is the readme
Next to 'install'
Wait which modinstaller is this
modinstaller2
Hm
I was using the other opne but it randomly stopped working
Yeah that happened recently
flashes up for a second then closes

hi guys, me and my friend wanted to play multiplayer toghether.
I already know the mods and how to install them, but he has a mac, so the modInstaller in .exe format is not working. Is there a ModInstaller in .app format?
Ps: excuse me for grammatical errors, im an italian guy.

oh ty
Lready got that one dowlaoded ty
mod launcher doesn't open up
idk what made it stop working suddenly but yeah
does someone know about this problem?
will it save my mods or do i need to reinstall everything?
mods that are "activated" are just in a certain folder
the new install will detect them in this folder and display them as activated
hello how do i install mods

should install modinstaller 1 or 2
Oh. Is the one in the pins fixed or still broken. Also is yours finished yet? 👀
If you're on windows, use ModInstaller 1. If you're on Mac, use ModInstaller 2
one in pins is fixed, essentially an auto-update was made that broke the startup sequence, preventing further auto-updates
mine will not be finished for a long while considering the uk government has just decided to screw me over in yet another way 
windows shows that modinstaller 1 is not safe
Microsoft Defender SmartScreen prevented an unrecognized app from starting. Running this app might put your PC at risk.
It hasn't got a license, but it is fine

How do you manually install mods for versions other then 1.4.3?
What version of the game do you have?
most mods are made only compatible for 1.4.3.2
I have cp, 1.0 from steam downpatcher, and I am rn downloading 1.18 with steam downpatcher
is the debug mod good

If you've downpatched and need specific mods for those patches, you can find a lot of them on speerun.com/hollowknight
do i need to downpatch to use mods?
No
ok
1.0.2.8 has its own kind of specific mods that can be found in either #resources or #any-percent
1.1.1.8 might have a modding api?
1.2.2.1 has modding api, debugmod and timermod, all found in #resources
generally you should only really be downpatching if you specifically want to run speedrun categories that require those patches
even if you want 1.2.2.1 speed tech you can mod it in using QoL for cp
why did a lot of things download when i downloaded roomrandomizer 3
Cuz theire needed for it
oh thanks

is there a mod that can auto charge the nail art?
Hello! im just wondering about how the skins like the fool skin work, what do i have to do to get one? im not sure if i understand correctly, so im just asking now. and also, i have never imported a different session in my computer - how do i do that?
Oh ok
@solemn jasper you mean skin for your knight ?
Afaik not
yes
@fair briar i hope we have option like in megaman games that have option for auto charge
You have the customknight mod?
yes
You can make one
How would that work
@solemn jasper 1st download mod installer 2 download costume knight and enable it then find a skin you like
Go to your games path and place the folder with the png's in the customknight folder
Yeah but its a thing where you have to do a colloseum 1 run
paste the skin mod you like inside that folder
You want to know where to get it?
Ye
You have done that
Yrah i got tgat far
And you ask how to import a save
@gloomy coral cuz nail art dont use so much in game hahahah about 5% only i think
I dont know how to put in a save

Ah thanks
If you want it to be for example slot 3 you can change the name to user3
And do i put the file under save files or game files?
You put it where the other files are
how do I uninstall modinstaller
In appdata
Aight, fair
i think just delete the mod folder in game
all mods wll be gone in your game instantly
First go to steam, properties, vertify intergrety
Then you delete the mods folder in the game files
but dont listen to my opinion i dont want your game break sorry hahaha
No
yeah I did that
or maybe just uncheck every mod you install on ur mod installer
its in the common folder
Then delete the folder called 'mods'
Only the folder called mods right
the hollow knight folder in common was the one they said to delete on reddit
And then you can just dele the modinstaller
ok
NO
Why would someone say that
Then you delete the game
Only the folder called 'Mods'
In the game files
Not the game files themselfs
wait how can I trust you

Nvm then
what is even happening rn
to uninstall modding api, verify game files in steam/gog
to get rid of modinstaller you can just delete the executable
damn why does it say error now
Cuz you did this
they said to delete the mods folder
i dont know maybe that guy dont really need help he just trolling
bruh
Yea I don't think he's trolling
is it supposed to have a slider at the start?
What says error
when you boot the game?
ok
Thats not normal if you did this
But i give up
Screenshot your hollow knight title screen
wait I need to bench first
For?
because I dont want to save and quit without saving
bruh
I think I got it fixed
the game works
The game saves progress if you quit but when you open the game it will place you at your last bench
ok
Do you have wifi on xD
What does offline mode do anyways?
it only load installed mod
Uh oh
Use modinstaller 2
Multiple people have this problem?
mmm
what
Download link is the first pin
Which mod do you want?
debug mod
Current patch right?
yeah
Download this file
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XmmomyluehEi5xot91SKQ7Vzl6cVst3u/view?usp=drivesdk
but i dont need the modding api?
First time using mods?
no, but yesterday i uninstall modding api for speedrun
:0
oh the mod installer now worked thx anyway 
download modinstaller again from the pins, the version you're using is broken 
;-;
i downloaded modinstaller 2 and deleted all the old modded stuff and it worked

this?
or this
either should work
what version you installed ?
that's modinstaller2
windows
ok
How do I use the modinstaller 2 to revert to modded?
and why does modinstaller 1 borken
Mod Installer 1 just needs redownloaded
Delete the current one, and re-install it
?i
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages.
If you have the new 2 though, you revert by unchecking Modding Api
which you can just search for now 
(I wanted to go to modded, not go to unmodded lmao)
Well, otherway around then lol
I'll just stick to 1 lmao
I remember there being a photoshop/gimp file with all the rooms and stuff separated out into their own layers for the randomized rooms mod, anyone know where that is?
probs ask in #modding-discussion or #randomizer cuz this channel is for asking questions about installing mods
So before i get the multiplayer mod can i use it with two controllers on the same pc or no? -Thanks 🙂
@idle hawk I have seen that someone has created a method of playing splitscreen co-op, using Multiplayer mod and another program.
That being said, it's not something I'm familiar with, and I haven't seen it really talked about here
Oh ok thanks ill look into it more that i know its a thing
Can some one give me the link for the sprites to download because when I try to click on the google drive folder it won’t let me so I’m using an alternative one and I think that’s messing with my sprite packer
Is mod installer not working for anyone else
Try the 2 version
I try to open it but all it will let me do is manually import mods
Link?
It's the first pin
K
if you want to use 1, delete what you have, and redownload it
make sure to clear browser cache before redownloading
someone help me pls
give information and someone might
i cant kill anything
He means that me makes no damage with his nail, he attacks something and it just doesn't register it as a hit. Dream nail and spells work just fine tho(Tested on the bowing dudes in White Palace)
Don't ping me, I cant do these things, I was just trying to clarify what Gado Holmes meant
I figured you were helping them personally, since I didn't see them mention any of that
¯_(ツ)_/¯
how do I change the hollow knight location in mod installer?
I took a look at his problem, never saw it before and thought it would be a good idea to let the People of this server handle it
Mickely, would it be possible to get a pin for like the next week, letting people know to delete and redownload ModInstaller 1?
Yeah probably
reset it
instructions in pins
Hey Modding Staff.
I am going to update the links/ description in the couple of 'how to mod' videos that I made. I have seen a couple comments saying some things have changed.
Is there anything beyond the pinned comments that I should include that would be helpful and make your life easier?
Important ModInstaller 1 Information
If you were using Installer 1 and it is no longer working, it is because an important update happened that messed up auto updates.
To address this:
- Delete your current installer exe and any AU.exe file that is next to it.
- Clear all installer memory files/reset it #archived-modding-help message
- Clear your browser file cache (https://bit.ly/3kll8Rp)
- Redownload the Installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe). Move installer to desktop
This should update your installer version to v8.7.1 and it should work again.
Just tell them to come here and leave it at that. Links and info will change over time. so better to just direct to the source
Good to know. I wasn't sure if it was annoying to have to answer the same questions over and over
help pls
I have downloaded the mod for the skins and now I get this error every time I enter
How many skins do you have installed, also, is your graphics card driver up to date?
I think specifically like, link the server, mention the channel, and ask people to check out the pinned messages in it.
The biggest issue is that hard-linked stuff can change at any point, and the updated versions are always put into the pins. People just have to look 👀
Mmh, then I'll give it to the other People, that were all the things that helped me and since its none of that I have no idea
you're going to have to give more information to get a good solution
okey
What OS are you using
What mod installer are you using
Where did you get your mod installer
Where did you buy hollow knight
I installed the mod that allows you to change your skins. I tried to open it to see if it was installed correctly and I skip that error
Plz answer questions and I will do my best to help you
ok
Disabling debug mod doesn't undo the changes
oh
It modifies your save file

64 bits, the one that changes the skins (I don't know the name), the installer I got it from here, unfortunately I don't have the hollow knight, mine is pirate
i understand you, buy the game its better for you
eh seen that they worked the same
Mods don't work on pirate copies, as you've clearly experienced lol. So, they do not work the same
sorry, but out of principle we won't offer our free content to people who did not already support the devs
And how do I copy the data of my game so I don't lose it?
people put a lot of hard work and love into modding out of passion for this game and community, and expect you to have at least the base respect for the people who made the game for you to spend money to play
save files are stored separately
Yeah my nail damage its 0
I am a person with little money
that changes nothing
Yeah :(
content took time and effort for other people to make
Also, hk is on sale for 6.19 on GoG rn
thanks Mickely and Dwarf
that's worth money
Bye
good night
As a reminder, HK is half-off on GOG right now:
https://www.gog.com/game/hollow_knight
I keep getting this message whenever I try to load the game with the debug mod stuff in the folder
are you on Windows?
yea
why is it running though Mono 
I have no idea what mono is
What mod installer are you using
Where did you get your mod installer
Where did you buy hollow knight
I'm using steam
thanks tami I didn't want to type that out 
Can we just have a !modddinghelp command or something that just asks 6 questions?
But anyway. Plz answer and I'll try to help
I used this vid
!!! THIS GUIDE IS ONLY FOR HOLLOW KNIGHT VERSION 1.2.2.1 (the speedrunning patch) !!!
If you're on current patch, please find and use the modinstaller instead.

are you on 1221
yes
Are you certain your down patch worked?
and you got the right API version
if it's trying to load mono, you probably got the mac one
(note the links in the desc are outdated)
get modding api and debug mod from #resources
thank you
Where can I find HK mods? I was following Reylea's video to install randomizer but the drive folder apparently has been deleted that had the mods
check the pins
I literally just updated that link now and left a message to check the pins here
haha, guess I opened the video just before you did
the new link works now in the description
also I don't think it's pinned in here, I didn't see it
ok sweet!
there's links to a copule of google docs and the custom sprite drive
I don't want to be rude, Relyea, but we're also not going to be entirely surprised if people just come here and ask without looking
It happens like once an hour
Thinking they would is foolish
in my defense, I did read description, I just got in right before he updated it
Yeah, np
I am certain people will com here without looking but I wanted to help out as best as I can.
No, that's definitely good
At least just going "Go to discord" doesn't link them to something that doesn't work, which is a big improvement to what I see some people starting with
I do my best to read all comments so if someone says links are outdated I can get it fixed when I get a chance
Then we have to tell them to delete everything and start again. 🙃
the real benefit would be an ASMR video of relyea reading the readme for hollow point
spin-off video of reading the important to read section 5 times
does anyone know where I can get the updated debugmod file?
for 1221?
ye
oh ok
is it a safe assumption that 1.4.x would be the most current version of the game for downloading randomizer?
what is the x
that's kinda what im trying to figure out - where to find my game version
i have the most current update
it's on the title screen
1.4.3.2-60
1.4.3.2
does anyone know why whenever i try to launch hk with the QoL mod it just shows the title but not the actual menu?
not without more info
what do you need?
Yes, randomizer will work with this
ok, thanks
game version number, where you bought it, what mods you installed, what OS you're on, what installer you used, a screenshot of your installer, and anything else you deem relevant information
aight gimme a sec
anyone know why modinstaller wont open?
check the pins
ah, ok thx
hk version 1.3.4.2 on steam, Windows 10, mods installed are modCommon, Modding Api, and QoL
no vasi?
install vasi
and I'm guessing your version is a typo
cuz 1342 isn't a thing
but glad it's working
yeah thanks
I'm getting this error while launching the mod installer, txt file with error trace following in a second
What os are you on
Which mod installer did you download
Where did you get Hollow Knight?
when I click continue it's an extremely oversized, and mostly blank, window with just "Manually" in the top left
Windows 10, Mod Installer from the channel decsription in top, I own on Steam
it was working fine a few minutes ago
Did you move the mod installer out of the downloads folder?
Oh, did you change anything at all?
it was still in downloads, but I also think I know what I did wrong
I was manually installing the mods via dragging the .dlls into the mod path directly
which I take it is incorrect since that caused issues when trying to launch mod manager
hello, is the benchwarpmod completely safe to use in multiplayer?
why is that?
Sometimes when people try to resume a game after quitting on a fake bench, it bugs out. I think this might only happen if you forget to renable the mod and come back to the save. But either way, better to just quit from real benches.
alright, does the randomizer also work? custom knight?
Multiplayer mod essentially just lets you see eachother, while being in your own worlds
So, most things will "work"
depending on how you're defining "work"
Like, Custom Knight works. It works in that all instances of the knight (as in all players) will be seen wearing whatever skin you choose).
they'll be able to see my skin? or did I get that wrong
No. Only you will see skins you pick. And if they pick skins, they'll see only that skin.
Where can I find the Lost Kin skin for Customknight? I'm not seeing it in the usual drives
okay, thanks a lot, you helped us a ton
so, i dont think this is the first time i've asked this, however i'm reinstalling the mod installer, and i'm not able to find the right folder. It tells me to find the Hollow Knight folder containing hollow_knight_Data, but i can't find that file anywhere
Oop, I take that back, it's just called "uninfected vessel"
You can both play randomizer, and both use the same seed. You won't affect the other in terms of pickups though. You can play a MultiWorld randomizer at the same time, and then the pickups will mixed between you both

ah, tysm!! ❤️
hey, its all downloaded and good, but my friend and i have the same address and port, but arent playing together
Multiplayer Troubleshooting:
#archived-modding-help message
ah, ty
so, the Hachi IP is the one that it made for me when i started a hachi server?
Hamachi ips are generated different for each device when you log in/create an account tmk
Yes
alright!!
alright, he's part of the same Hamachi server, and he's entered the Address in, and still nothing. Is there a comprehensive guide somewhere?
Fireb0rn has a guide video
There's also a link in it to a dedicated Multiplayer server, that probably has more dedicated info
where would one go for that multiplayer server
Did you enter your own ip and connect to yourself?
Do you have the right mods, like the pin says?
yes, i have the mods, yes i'm connected to that IP!
what IP does my friend connect to?
The same one
Whoever the host is
All players connect to the host ip
Including the host
to clarify, the Host IP meaning my home IP address? and not the hamachi address?
yep.
but the thing is, it didnt work when i tried that. So i figured you meant the other option!
My bad
hey, are any of the IP's here incredibly personal? is there anything stopping me from showing screenshots, to make things more clear?
because Hamachi is showing me two IP's, and neither of them are mine, so I figure that i'd be alright to show the exact situation
Hamachi ips are vpn ips
And you can only connect to them if you're in the same hamachi server
yup, we are!!
So sharing that ip here doesn't matter. Cuz nobody can connect to it without being in your hamachi server
It's telling me two IP's, though. Its showing me two different Hamachi IP's in the window, one large and at the top of the screen, and one under the other
one second!
25.5.121.32 is yours. The one below is whoever connected to your server
so, in hollow knight, the address that we both connect to should be 25.5.121.32?
If you have the server mod. Yes
alright. the issue must be somewhere else then, because we've been on there. i must have done something else wrong
Screenshot your title screen
I have a friend who cant find their saves after reinstalling mods. they are using
ModCommon
Custom Knight
Multiplayer Client (and the regular since they are hosting)
Any fix to this?
By "can't find saves" do you mean that they just say "loading" all the time?
No the saves do not appear at all in their menu when they start a game
thanks ill check back if it doesnt work
How do you turn off the modding API
I uninstalled it in the mod menu but the modding api is still on
@mental schooner screenshot your pause menu
Mod installer 1 or 2?
Did you uninstall it when the game was on
Yes but I have restarted the game since then
Well
Ofc it won’t work while it’s on
It’s replacing the file with all the game’s code
While the game is running
Gonna be a couple problems with that
Such as it won’t work
So is there a way to fix that
So just do it again with the game off
ok ill try that
So i uninstalled the Modding API but when I restarted Modinstaller 2 again it was redownloaded and active
And when I just unactivate the mod it closes modinstaller 2 and stays on
Verify game file integrity through steam
uh can someone help me when i updated my modinstaller and enabled QoL or QtL the mod, when i launched hollow knight it was really weird and just showed the title Hollow Knight but it never actually showed the start option or anything but the title
You need vasi
oh ty
How do you check file integrity
Through steam
I found it
It said 1 file wasn't verified do I have to do something about it or does it fix itseld
itself
Thank you for the help

Hello, I am trying to use the Radomiozer 3 mod on windows, and every time i try to launch the game when I install it the game immediately crashes. I'm not sure if it is because my computer is not great or if there is another reason. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
