ok, so after verifying the integrity of HKs files on steam it must have removed the mods? i cant see them on the top corner of the title screen now. I never checked the game itself after verifying, I only tried launching the installer lol

#

i installed benchwarp, modcommon, g to dab, QoL, randomizer 3, serecore, and vasi

pliant lantern
#

If your installer isn't working, you can manually install the API from the drive

#

?mods

pliant lantern
#

There's more info for manually installing mod stuff in the pins pinknight (kinda low in them)

silk hazel
#

I feel like this might be a question for moding help recently I installed a skin that needed to change the files in hollow knight and now even after I uninstalled it a replaced the files I sill have a glitch where my soul randomly just goes away or I cant cast vengeful spirit anyone known how to fix this?

pliant lantern
silk hazel
#

ok validating right now

pliant lantern
#

@agile zealot Make sure you're using the most recent version of ModInstaller2 (for Mac) from the pins pinknight

frosty swallow
#

Is there a mod to give yourself items?

pliant lantern
#

?mods

pliant lantern
#

Mod summaries lists what the mods do, as well as Mod Installer 2's descriptions.
But to be more direct: Debug mod does

frosty swallow
#

Oh thanks

astral quartz
#

so i followed some of the instructions in pinned messages and they have worked so far. gonna launch the game to see if I can load them

frosty swallow
#

What button activates debug mod?

astral quartz
#

ok, game launches and correct mods load with the right instances for room randomizer lol

wide glade
astral quartz
#

ok so my question is, if i want to load a vanilla save and want to keep it vanilla, should i disable mods before loading the save?

#

i would imagine so

wide glade
#

rando can mess with stuff definitely

astral quartz
#

like im sure im not the first lol

wheat orchid
#

if you want a save to stay modded, don't use it without the mods you wanted(mostly just for rando)

astral quartz
#

and i can enable/disable and still go back to the vanilla save with no issues?

wheat orchid
#

yes

astral quartz
#

ok sick

#

im curious like someone else said above which mods really matter for a save if you enable disable, like some don't but rando def would

wheat orchid
#

?

#

not getting the question

pliant lantern
#

If you want to keep a file vanilla, then don't load that file while you have mods enabled

astral quartz
#

certain mods like rando truly change the game and could corrupt the file if saved with them on, while some might not have a huge effect?

pliant lantern
#

And make backups of your main files, just in case you accidentally load them

astral quartz
#

yes, but like loading a save with only press g to dab on for example doesnt really change much right? i am new, i just dont fully understand yet lol thanks for being patient

pliant lantern
# astral quartz certain mods like rando truly change the game and could corrupt the file if save...

It depends on what you mean by "huge effect" is the whole thing.
And it's typically better to err on the side of caution, rather than not.
You can always copy a save, and rename it (change the number of the save to the number of a different slot) in order to play that save with mods without a worry.
But like, it's not really helpful to go through and list every mod that may possibly leave a trace on a vanilla file, because there's a lot of mods.

#

You can probably use G to Dab, Custom Knight, and HP Bars without permanently affecting a file, but again, I personally would recommend backing up the saves. It's also easy to forget that you have other mods on.

frosty swallow
#

Is there a way to change the keybind for debug mod?

subtle ivy
#

so, i'm having this problem when i try to put mods now, i literally went to verify the integrity of the files in the game and it doesn't fix, can anybody help me( i tried uninstall the game and install again it didn't work either)

pliant lantern
frosty swallow
#

damn

#

my f1 and f2 are busted

pliant lantern
# frosty swallow my f1 and f2 are busted

You can use an external program to make another button or key-combination work as those buttons.
If you're playing from Steam, there's an option in Big Picture mode to use custom inputs with a game. Otherwise, there's programs such as Joy2Key

wide glade
#

never checked but there might be a value to rebind debug menu in the globalsettings

pliant lantern
#

Huh, there is

frosty swallow
#

big picutre mode?

#

o

pliant lantern
#

That two-arrow button

frosty swallow
#

what after that?

pliant lantern
#

I mean, I'm trying to find out exactly how to just rebind the key itself, because apparently you can do that lol.
I just don't know keybut input numbers lol

frosty swallow
#

i see

wide glade
frosty swallow
#

swag

wheat orchid
#

I think

#

Probably count top to bottom for the number of it

pliant lantern
# frosty swallow i see

I went and checked, and fwiw, I don't think Steam lets you rebind keyboard inputs-- it only lets you bind Keyboard inputs to controller inputs. Which I mean, if you're using controller, then this means you can still bind F1 to a controller button that you don't use, but you can't bind F1 to a different keyboard button with it.

frosty swallow
#

aw

#

damn

pliant lantern
#

I did find a number list though

frosty swallow
#

so there is another chance?

wheat orchid
#

Huh Roblox

#

How did we get there

pliant lantern
#

I don't know why these ones specifically, but I checked them against my save, and it's all correct

pliant lantern
wheat orchid
#

lol

fallow pilot
#

Note, KeyCode keyboard values refer to the physical position of buttons on a standard QWERTY keyboard.
It's a hardware keycode mapping

pliant lantern
#

Why can't other sources just list the ding-dang numbers like this one does lol

#

Thank you Roblox dev

fallow pilot
#

Well, the 'letter' will change based on the software setup for your keyboard

pliant lantern
#

Ah

fallow pilot
#

If you're AZERTY, for example, it'll be different.

pliant lantern
#

that's not correct

wide glade
#

hmm

wheat orchid
#

I don’t think that’s the same as key code?

#

Different enum

fallow pilot
#

Yeah, that doesn't map to hardware or anything. It's used specifically for winforms

pliant lantern
wide glade
#

oh I'm not smart, mobile. browsing documentation is hard

pliant lantern
#

Gross. I wouldn't wanna look a docs on mobile @_@

fallow pilot
#

This enumeration has a FlagsAttribute attribute that allows a bitwise combination of its member values.
This is the biggest indicator that it's not what you're looking for. The enum values would have enormous values then to enable every key on the keyboard to work with the FlagsAttribute

wheat orchid
#

Someone just needs to add a string enum json converter to those values and everything’s fixed

wide glade
pliant lantern
#

Anyway, @frosty swallow
If you go to your Saves folder, you can open DebugMod.GlobalSettings.json in notepad, then change the button for Toggle All UI (literally the first option) to a different number.

This is a list of button numbers that should work, assuming you're on a QWERTY keyboard:
https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/api-reference/enum/KeyCode

So if you want to open the menu with Number Pad 0 (KeypadZero in the doc linked), then change 282 to 256.

ayo what am I looking at

#

nvm

#

where do I open it?

wide glade
#

notepad

#

or otherwise the text editor of your choice ig

frosty swallow
#

like the notepad app?

wide glade
#

right click the file - open with... - notepad

frosty swallow
#

its all in

#

hold on

pliant lantern
#

What

#

no

#

You didn't open the file I said

frosty swallow
#

oh

#

oops

pliant lantern
#

You went to the mod folder

#

Go to the SAVES folder

#

And open the file that I said to open lol

frosty swallow
#

toggle all ui to 256

#

ty dwarf

#

@pliant lantern can I just change it to the letter V?

pliant lantern
#

You can change it to whatever you want lol

#

That's why I linked you the list

frosty swallow
#

neat

subtle ivy
pliant lantern
#

Killer Whale requires you to rename a bunch of stuff

subtle ivy
#

right now i can't get teh killer whale skin to work

#

dam

#

like which stuff

pliant lantern
#

AFAIK there's not a version posted that has everything actually setup correctly

#

It needs to match how the Default skin is set

#

So each file name needs to match how the file names are in Default

subtle ivy
#

oh i see

#

thx

#

but also like in the Winrar within the folder( have images), do i let it like that or pull it on the folder?

pliant lantern
#

IIRC you also need to extract those, and rename them

subtle ivy
#

so extract and rename it then?

pliant lantern
#

Well, "them", but yes

#

Each image file will need renamed pretty much

subtle ivy
#

thank you ma dude

#

it worked now i can get defeated but being fabulous

vocal goblet
#

so i was playing the lightbringer mod and then my debug mod stoped working, i reinstalled it and restarted the game to no availe. no idea what cassed it or how to fix it

pliant lantern
#
  • What does "stop working" mean?
  • Does Debug show up in your main menu?
  • Have you changed anything else about your mods recently?
vocal goblet
#

well by "not working" i mean i cant use any of the moduals

#

yes debug shows up and no i did nt change my mods

pliant lantern
#

But F1 still opens and closes the UI?

vocal goblet
#

yes

pliant lantern
#

Then it sounds like it's working.
If you use MoreSaves, then it's possible that you can't click some settings in the panels for some reason, but the bindings should work fine

vocal goblet
#

ok hold on al try uninstalling/disableing the saves

#

it worked thx

pliant lantern
#

@lost talon
Why do you say it isn't installing?

lost talon
#

its basically stuck in an update loop that wont let me install it after i update it, it pretty much uninstalled itself

#

nvm it fixed itself

pliant lantern
#

There's a bug with a couple of mods, including Hollow Point, where the mod installers will always think that they have updates

#

That doesn't mean that they didn't install though

lost talon
#

when it asks to install the download do i just say no?

gloomy coral
#

Yea press cancel

#

For hollow point only

#

Other mods might genuinely have an update

pliant lantern
#

Job Change is also broken for updates iirc

lost talon
#

it says its installed on the launcher and enabled, alongside modcommon but doesnt show up in game

#

other mods do tho^

gloomy coral
#

Screenshot your main menu

#

And the mod installer

lost talon
#

if my mod installer launched that would be great

sleek radish
#

i have a similar problem

lost talon

except on a mac

preciate the help

I assumed that it would still show in the corner, otherwise that would have been the first thing I'd have checked. Womp womp. Live and learn, and all that jazz

#

Does HollowPoint start disabled?

sand lichen
#

how???????

#

nvm fixed it

#

it says

pliant lantern
#

Where did you get the game from?

sand lichen
#

steam

gloomy coral
#

Doesn't look like it

sand lichen
#

i pirated it before then bought it

#

it was the last game i pirated

#

the path is changed as well

pliant lantern
#

But if you don't have it, it won't work

gloomy coral
#

Before doing this delete the pirated files

fair briar
#

why do some infinitly update tho?

pliant lantern
#

There's a code that is checked for them, and if the code doesn't match, then it thinks it's out of date. Some of the mods have the wrong code.

fair briar
#

the SHA1?

pliant lantern
#

Yeah

severe trout
#

How do i un-enable mods?

pliant lantern
#

Like, you want to play Vanilla

#

Or like, you want to disable a mod?

severe trout
#

I wanna disable a mod

#

MULTIPLE

pliant lantern
#

If you're using a Mod Installer, then you just click disable next to it, and wait a moment, then do the same for the next one.

#

On ModInstaller2, you un-check the box, then wait a moment, then repeat for the next one

severe trout
#

It kinda just crashes for me

novel bronze
#

how to use modinstaller2?

severe trout
#

oh wait

pliant lantern
#

Mmmm, that's been happening for some people. You can click "Uninstall" for the mods you want to disable. It should work too

severe trout
#

I click install and it goes away

#

thanks for the help lol

there are your save files, just copy them into a seperate folder so that, even if something breaks, you still have them

tepid ginkgo
#

ok

fair briar
#

in userX.dat X is the number of the save

#

but i gtg now i need to learn for physics bye

#

yes

limber egret
#

Just copy them using the copy command built into your computer

novel bronze
#

so, in the directory the we have shown there are user(a number here).dat files alright. Just copy them to a different folder on your desktop or something so that you have a copy of them in your save data whatever folder and on your deskopt

limber egret
#

And then make a folder basically anywhere that's easy to find and press paste

tepid ginkgo
#

I copied them now how to install mods?

limber egret
#

Download the mod installer from the pinned messages in this channel

#

If you're on windows, get ModInstaller for Windows. If you're on Mac, ModInstaller 2 for Mac

limber egret

Okay

#

Open your downloads folder, and move the ModInstaler.exe to your desktop

tepid ginkgo

is it Modinstaller2.exe?

Probably yes if you got it on steam

tepid ginkgo
#

yes

wheat orchid
#

Click yes then

tepid ginkgo
wheat orchid
#

Click the out of date button on ModdingApi

tepid ginkgo
#

then

wheat orchid
#

Then click install on modcommon, frogcore, serecore, SFCore, and Vasi

#

Then you can install whatever mods you want

#

Click the arrow next to a mod to get a short description of them

tepid ginkgo
#

should I click "installed?"?

wheat orchid
tepid ginkgo
wheat orchid
#

The box next to it should already be checked

#

Also look at the bottom of the installer to see a small blue bar representing the progress of mod downloads

tepid ginkgo
#

can I open the game and chose the mods or do I have to choose from it?

limber egret
#

Install and enable the mods you wanyt

#

Then open the game

tepid ginkgo
#

ok ty

@wheat orchid thanks, got rid of the mods. I wanna create a second copy of the game to work with mods, is there a clean way to do this? Just copy pasting and adding to steam doesn't seem to work, it recognizes it and just opens the original copy

Did you either move Hollow Knight from its regular installation, or did you ever have a pirated version of HK?

digital copper
#

nah i don't pirate

#

where do i get the mod installer

If you ever had a pirated version, you need to make sure it is entirely deleted

you can go to the mods folder and change the .zip to a .dll

Fwiw, if you don't need help with a mod, and are just talking about them, then probably use #modding-discussion , so that this channel isn't spammed

so uh, how do you change a .zip to a .dll

pliant lantern

Right click, rename

double click the zip, windows has integrated zip support

ah aight

thanks everyone

digital copper
#

do you need inferno king grimm for infinite grimm?

pliant lantern
#

Not afaik

#

Looks like Infinite Grimm just requires ModCommon

digital copper
#

man, nothing went wrong until i tried to install the poorly translated mod

fair briar
#

Whats the problem

digital copper
#

idk!

#

it just started giving errors

#

so im gonna reinstall it all again

fair briar
#

What gave errors

digital copper
#

trying to install mods

pliant lantern
#

But the errors, will tell you what the problem was

#

read them lol

fair briar
#

Or ss them

digital copper
#

too late now lol

#

just to make sure, which of these do i need to use as install path

fair briar
#

Hk

#

Not hkd

digital copper
#

are CharmOverhaul and Exaltation compatible?

fair briar
#

Prob not

digital copper
#

this is the thing i get

balmy cove
#

In the managed folder there is no CustomKnight folder. is that normal for mac if yes what do i have to do

fair briar
digital copper
#

yeah

#

can't even install the mod installer now

fair briar
#

Hmm

pliant lantern
fair briar
#

@glass meteor you havent fixed that error yet?

glass meteor
#

what

#

Why have you pinged me

pliant lantern
#

It's not just ModInstaller2 tho. It's both of them

#

Something causes both of them to do that

digital copper
glass meteor
#

what is this for

glass meteor
pliant lantern
# glass meteor what is this for

I assume Ruttie pinged you because they thought that it was a ModInstaller2 problem specifically? (Since you mentioned there being an issue with a colon in filename for the logger).
But there's def something else going on, that is breaking both Installers for people

glass meteor
#

but where is the colon error

#

these are all winforms

#

so not my error

digital copper
#

i could also try manually installing mods instead right

#

will probably save some time for now

glass meteor
#

press the modinstaller 2 button

#

easy

digital copper
#

last time i used modinstaller 2 it didn't work

glass meteor
#

this is not descriptive

#

if you tell me what broke I can actually fix it

pliant lantern
# glass meteor so not my error

Fwiw, I wasn't saying that this was your error-- I'm just assuming that that is why they pinged you specifically lol

Something else has been going on, that's preventing either Installer from working for some people though. They both seem to suddenly stop working, and seemingly don't pull up the directory

glass meteor
#

interesting

fair briar
#

And shouldn't i be able to ping you as you're modding staff? Or is it reserved for mods?

pliant lantern
#

Clearing their modinstaller files in appdata doesn't fix it for them either.
It just seems to for whatever reason stop finding the mod file directory for awhile (either saying it is null, or corrupt, or just loading a blank installer)

glass meteor
#

I mean you can ping me but I'm not going to do anything lmao

fair briar
#

Hmm

glass meteor
#

unless it's modinstaller 2

digital copper
#

where can you download mods for manually installing?

glass meteor
#

you can read the modlinks or check the drive

#

Not entirely sure the drive is even up to date for the mods with large downloads

fair briar
#

I dont know who owns what modisntaller apperently you are only in charche of mod2?

#

Anyways sry if i pinged you wrongly

hallow hearth
#

Does anyone know if I have to get a new mod isnatkler for 1221 patcj

#

My spelling is shit also

pliant lantern
#

Mod Installers are only for current patch

#

There isn't an installer for older patches

hallow hearth
#

So I can't get debug on 1221

glass meteor
#

you can

pliant lantern
#

Just not with installer

glass meteor
#

you just do it yourself

hallow hearth
#

How?

pliant lantern
#

Check the pins for how to manually install mods pinknight

hallow hearth
#

But where do I get the dll from

glass meteor
#

replace assembly-csharp with the 1221 api and put debug in the mods folder, creating it if it's not already there

pliant lantern
glass meteor
#

^

hallow hearth
#

Awesome thanks dudes

digital copper
#

huuhhhhh

#

ok so i did try to use modinstaller 2 this time

#

but i don't see the files in the mod folder

glass meteor
#

does it show as installed in the installer?

digital copper
#

yeah

glass meteor
#

do you have multiple copies of the game

digital copper
#

just looked and there was a hk folder on my hard drive instead only my ssd

#

should i delete that one and reinstall the mods?

glass meteor
#

yeah if you're not using it

#

you'll also want to delete the settings for the installer to reset it

#

it'll be in %appdata%

digital copper
#

this one i take it?

glass meteor
#

check what's in it

#

HKInstallerSettings.json is for 2

digital copper
#

not this one then

#

hmm

#

oh found it

glass meteor
#

gg

digital copper
#

out of date?

glass meteor
#

did you click it already

digital copper
#

yeah

glass meteor
#

just wait a bit for it to update then

digital copper
#

alrighty

#

it hasn't changed

glass meteor
#

is your internet garbage by any chance

digital copper
#

not that bad

#

i download hk in 5 minutes

glass meteor
#

interesting

#

try relaunching it

digital copper
#

still not doing anything

#

the download bar shows up but doesn't move

glass meteor
#

hmm

#

oh the bar doesn't work for gdrive downloads

#

because google drive sucks

#

and they don't implement file sizes

digital copper
#

oh i think it closed itself

#

still out of date though 😕

gloomy coral
#

Maybe manually change the modding api to a newer version?

digital copper
#

how exactly would I do that

gloomy coral
fathom patrol
#

hollow point isn't working, help please.

gloomy coral
#

wdym by not working?

fathom patrol
#

fathom patrol
#

ive reloaded it about 5 times

gloomy coral
#

screenshot you hk title screen

digital copper
#

#

gloomy coral
#

fathom patrol
gloomy coral
digital copper
gloomy coral
#

if it doesnt work reset benchwarp and modding api

real jacinth
#

ive reloaded it about 5 times
meaning.... you started a new save 5 times? or you opened the one you had just made 5 times

fathom patrol
#

wdym running by admin?

gloomy coral
#

it wasnt for you

fathom patrol
#

o

digital copper
#

mmmm why doesn't it work

#

it just crashes now

fathom patrol
digital copper
#

i think it decided to work

fathom patrol
#

i made a new save about 5 times

real jacinth
#

reload the save you made

#

don't make a new one

gloomy coral
real jacinth
#

hollow point doesn't work on new saves

#

you have to make a save, leave, then go back into the save

fathom patrol
#

thx

#

it worked

real jacinth
#

the readme details all of that

#

and more

glass meteor
#

@digital copper the game or the installer?

digital copper
#

the installer

glass meteor
#

alright

digital copper
#

though it now decided to not work again

#

i was able to download some mods but now its stopped

glass meteor
#

I'll get a build where the error logging actually works later today

#

is there any mod in particular which didn't work

digital copper
#

any mod i try to install, right now

glass meteor
#

can you try infinite grimm

digital copper
#

already installed that one

#

uninstall and reinstall?

glass meteor
#

Sure

digital copper
#

it allows me to uninstall and install it again

#

but still not others

glass meteor
#

try vasi

digital copper
#

not vasi either

glass meteor
#

terrible

#

custom knight?

digital copper
#

was also already installed

glass meteor
#

Grimmchild upgrades

digital copper
#

o

#

works

glass meteor
#

interesting

#

does this link work for you

digital copper
#

it does

glass meteor
#

extremely interesting

wheat orchid
#

Cool. Inconsistencies

digital copper
#

do i unzip the file?

glass meteor
#

no I just wanted to see if it was a network thing

digital copper
#

ah

#

do you need all mods active when you start a new save or does it not matter

#

like if i added a modded boss later, would it still work

fair briar
#

yes

digital copper
#

guess i'll play with the mods that do work for now then

novel bronze
#

can someone help me use uuwuu

willow girder
#

can you spawn regular enemies with the !spawn command?

#

in the hollow knigh twitch mod

glass meteor
#

there's a few certain enemies which work

#

baldur vengefly are some I think

willow girder
#

@glass meteor is there an updated list of the commands?, we are in a stream trying some commands such as !duplicateboss or !spawn vengefly and they don't work

glass meteor
#

duplicateboss is a bit buggy

#

The command list in the mods folder is always as up to date as you can get because it's generated by the mod

digital copper
#

how do you adjust difficulty in redwing

#

nvm

mental salmon
#

how do i prevent crashing at start of the game when i installed custom knight and randomizer?

pliant lantern
#

Unplug your controller

#

Then plug it in on main menu

inland salmon
#

I used to have a issue similar to that but not exactly but it was normally because qol was being weird and I had to uninstall and reinstall but then again I don’t remember if I had custom knight when I got that issue

mental salmon
#

From my computer?

#

I'm not having a powerful one but is running hollow knight smooth

digital copper
#

quick question, are there any mods that increase enemy health?

#

or just increase the difficulty overall

#

(besides the harder boss mods ofc)

novel bronze
#

question do you need Hamachi to do multiplayer with someone

wheat orchid
#

No but you need to use a vpn like it, or port forward(requires revealing your real ip and access to your router)

#

Ok
