analog linden

It should work

pliant lantern Mar 22, 2021, 6:30 PM

#

Doesn't Mac put something in a different folder? I don't remember what off the top of my head, but I feel like there's something that it does uniquely in regards to mods.

analog linden Mar 22, 2021, 6:30 PM

You might want to set chaos mode on

fair briar Mar 22, 2021, 6:34 PM

#

analog linden what do those do?

It makes enemy's be random like in the yt vids

pliant lantern Mar 22, 2021, 6:34 PM

#

analog linden also is room mode room randomizer?

You should read the readme file. It mentions what reach setting does

analog linden Mar 22, 2021, 6:34 PM

#

ah i see

#

yeah im trying to replicate the yt videos

still dirge Mar 22, 2021, 6:35 PM

#

could it just be the amount of mods you have installed at once?

gloomy coral Mar 22, 2021, 6:35 PM

#

For mac its content -> resources -> managed -> mods

fair briar Mar 22, 2021, 6:35 PM

#

analog linden yeah im trying to replicate the yt videos

Most people want that and then ask and we need to say they need to activate that etc

analog linden Mar 22, 2021, 6:35 PM

#

and what about room mode?

gloomy coral Mar 22, 2021, 6:35 PM

#

not content -> managed -> mods (this is for skins)

fair briar Mar 22, 2021, 6:35 PM

#

analog linden and what about room mode?

It randomizes the rooms

analog linden Mar 22, 2021, 6:36 PM

#

Opening the game once will reinitialize stuff, like the settings. After it's been initialized, it'll need closed and opened again

whats that?

Oh ok

analog linden Mar 22, 2021, 6:57 PM

yes?

pliant lantern Mar 22, 2021, 6:57 PM

Disable Enemy Randomizer, then Enable it again

Then close

The whole game

#

And open

#

Mac users must right-click and open hollow_knight.app right? They can't copy and paste a path past that?

gloomy coral Mar 22, 2021, 7:45 PM

#

yea, they have to go to the game files location, right click on hollow_knight.app and then click on show package contents

#

but they can maybe get to it directtly from terminal idk how exactly file paths work in mac

pliant lantern Mar 22, 2021, 7:51 PM

#

I'm making a rewrite of the "how to manually install mods" pinned message, since it's out-of-date slightly, and not super clear about some stuff. I'm trying to make sure I include info on the Mac stuff, since that is a reoccurring confusion, with very little detailed pinned info.

If anyone does have any specific detailed mac info, lmk.

Like, I am guessing that

Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/hollow_knight.app/ (you'll then need to right-click and select show package contents, and navigate to resources -> data -> Managed)
is the equivalent of
Windows: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data\Managed

gloomy coral Mar 22, 2021, 7:53 PM

#

ig

#

maybe when someone comes with a mac you can try telling them to go to
~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/hollow_knight.app/Contents/Resources/Data/Managed/Mods

#

and see what happens

pliant lantern Mar 22, 2021, 7:55 PM

#

I don't have confidence in people to consistently get past hollow_knight.app without more direction, based on some of the past things I've seen zote

limber moon Mar 22, 2021, 8:20 PM

#

Okay so

#

ive gone through video and your pins/troubleshooting reccomendations

#

And my friend still is unable to connect to my network.

real jacinth Mar 22, 2021, 8:21 PM

#

are they connected to you in hamachi

limber moon Mar 22, 2021, 8:21 PM

#

Ive got the correct stuff installed. So does he.
Ive created a network. Given him the IP to type in. I connect before him. We've restarted the game.

real jacinth Mar 22, 2021, 8:21 PM

#

do they have the right mods

#

you have to both have hamachi and connect there

limber moon Mar 22, 2021, 8:22 PM

#

They arent able to join my Hamachi network

real jacinth Mar 22, 2021, 8:22 PM

#

why

limber moon Mar 22, 2021, 8:22 PM

#

Like i gave them password and name. They connect. And it says they are offline in some networks

#

And the IP that it says for the server is different for them than what ive got

#

both Ipvn 4 and 6 are different

real jacinth Mar 22, 2021, 8:23 PM

#

the server is just a name

#

doesn't have an ip

#

the ip addresses you're probably seeing are theirs

limber moon Mar 22, 2021, 8:23 PM

#

oh thats the thing, I wasnt seeing there IP adress. It just now showed up for some reason

#

So

#

Do they use my IP adress, the one that the Hamchi server has right next to the power button?

real jacinth Mar 22, 2021, 8:24 PM

#

if you are host

#

then they use yours

#

the power button only you see

#

they will see your IP in the connected people list under the server name

#

and you will see their IP in that list

#

the power button on their screen will have their IP next to it

limber moon Mar 22, 2021, 8:26 PM

#

Okay that explains that part

#

Ima try now

real jacinth Mar 22, 2021, 8:26 PM

you can also google "how to use hamachi"

#

maybe ppl here can save my old response in case someone else asks for this same error? because i literally got the exact same error box as you, so the solution i came up with might help in the future

onyx cliff Mar 22, 2021, 10:16 PM

#

Ok but what did you do

amber aurora Mar 22, 2021, 10:16 PM

#

gimme a sec lol

onyx cliff Mar 22, 2021, 10:16 PM

#

Ok

amber aurora Mar 22, 2021, 10:17 PM

#

alright so for starters, here's my old response so i can elaborate on it

#

Hey @Someone I found a way to fix this whole mess, so if anyone asks about it, maybe it can help them as well! So I uninstalled and reinstalled the game as you suggested and deleted the ModInstaller file in Local to set it up again, but the mods still weren't working. I decided to check the save file in LocalLow to copy/paste my saves just in case, and saw a whole bunch of files, .txt and otherwise, that had mod names, including mods I hadn't reinstalled with my latest try with ModInstaller, mods I hadn't installed since the game was still working with them. So I selected the whole thing, all those files, and deleted them. Then I ran ModInstaller once more and reinstalled all the mods (except for Benchwarp that was already installed as a test and didn't suffer from having those LocalLow files deleted) and this time, everything was working again. I've been playing three times since to see if any more problems pop up, but everything seems to be working fine. So yeah, no idea why that was causing an issue, or if that was even the issue or just a byproduct of a different issue resolved by your attempts to help me yesterday. In any case, I'm really glad I can play again, and I hope this can help someone else

#

alright, now for some details on what i did in case this is confusing

onyx cliff Mar 22, 2021, 10:18 PM

#

Ok

amber aurora Mar 22, 2021, 10:18 PM

#

so i went to LocalLow/Team Cherry/Hollow Knight, that whole thing. in this file, there are a Crashes and Old Mod Log file. underneath are a bunch of files related to mods

#

you need to delete all of them

#

(except the save files at the bottom, those user.1-6 files)

#

(those files, you cut/paste out of the file so that this whole file is empty except for the crashes and old mod log)

#

then you run Hollow Knight once

#

without any mods and with Modinstaller uninstalled from your computer

onyx cliff Mar 22, 2021, 10:20 PM

#

Ok I think I'll just try to reinstall the modinstaller first tho

#

Because there was an update to it recently

amber aurora Mar 22, 2021, 10:20 PM

#

i know, that's what caused my issue too, an update, but don't do that

#

because when i tried to do that, it created duplicates of the files i'm telling you to delete

#

and it made this whole mess worse to a point i had to uninstall the whole game

#

i promise you're not losing much by deleting those files, you will all get it back by installing ModInstaller again and then downloading your mods once more

#

at which point the problem should be fixed

onyx cliff Mar 22, 2021, 10:22 PM

#

I already deleted the modinstaller....

amber aurora Mar 22, 2021, 10:22 PM

#

great!

onyx cliff Mar 22, 2021, 10:22 PM

#

Huh?

amber aurora Mar 22, 2021, 10:22 PM

#

just delete the files, run the game once

onyx cliff Mar 22, 2021, 10:22 PM

#

I thought you said not to do that

amber aurora Mar 22, 2021, 10:22 PM

#

and then install modinstaller again

#

no i meant don't reinstall it yet

amber aurora Mar 22, 2021, 10:22 PM

#

onyx cliff Ok I think I'll just try to reinstall the modinstaller first tho

you said that, i said don't

(btw Someone, thanks for the google drive link but that's the one I was talking about that isn't up-to-date with all the mods in the ModInstaller. so I'm guessing there are no up-to-date document out there)

onyx cliff Mar 22, 2021, 10:26 PM

#

I mean I think its the installer

#

How would I tell, just yo be certain

wheat orchid Mar 22, 2021, 10:27 PM

#

Is the error happening in the installer or the game

onyx cliff Mar 22, 2021, 10:27 PM

#

I'm actually still running the debug mod and custom knight in my game still

#

So I assume the installer is finicky

wheat orchid Mar 22, 2021, 10:28 PM

#

Wait

#

Are you messing with the installer with the game open?

If you have QoL, it creatures an editable .json for any save that you open with it.
Otherwise there's an online save editor, linked in one of the pins iirc

foggy hamlet Mar 22, 2021, 11:19 PM

#

i did find the json, or at least what i assume is the json

vernal rain Mar 22, 2021, 11:19 PM

#

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 "dreamReward1" through "dreamReward9"
set the value to false
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 "dreamReward1" through "dreamReward9"
set the value to false
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

Your file structure needs to be:

Managed/mods/custom Knight/[name of your skin]/[images]

#

If it is anything else it won't work.

#

You likely have an extra folder before the images

hey so i am trying to download the Hollow point mod but I am stuck the mod installer recognizes it as installed and it is enabled but whenever I open hollow knight it doesn't show it. What do I do.

#

nvm i got it

west bane Mar 23, 2021, 12:51 AM

#

is it just hollow point or any mod

#

you just replace the files in their respective folders

Im trying to install a custom skin but, since i downloaded it with gamepass the modinstaller all the tutorials tell you to use cant install anything because "The media is write protected"

are you using mod installer?

raven barn Mar 23, 2021, 1:54 AM

#

yea, but i havent touched hk in a while and i dont remember the installer was called

mighty cairn Mar 23, 2021, 1:55 AM

#

its called ModInstaller.exe

#

once you open it you can push the button that says "revert back to unmoded"

raven barn Mar 23, 2021, 1:59 AM

#

its saying unable to locate game files

#

thank!

mighty cairn Mar 23, 2021, 2:58 AM

like have multiple skins on at once?

#

yes you can

#

if you go into the folders with the skins in them you can take the stuff out and move it around. just put the ones you want in a new folder

Hey team, having a bit of a struggle wondering if I could get a hand. Trying to install custom knight (or any mod really) but the game crashes after the mod load bar. I can get the mod launcher to load without any mods installed, but as soon as I enable one the game crashes.

I've done multiple fresh reinstalls, moved my game to default path (C:// programfiles(86), cleared out both the modinstaller and hollow knight app data a few times and have used all the links provided on this discord (after trying old versions) and yeah just not having any luck.

gloomy coral What happens when you open a save file

The game crashes after the mod bar has loaded when CustomKnight is enabled

#

I don't even get as far as opening a save file

gloomy coral Mar 23, 2021, 8:42 AM

#

nimble flower Like this?

The game didn't crash

#

So what happens when you run game with only api

nimble flower Mar 23, 2021, 8:42 AM

#

Yeah so if you read my question, I included that I got base mods to work and things like the QoL mod

obsidian belfry Mar 23, 2021, 8:42 AM

#

you have too many skins enabled probably, kosm

nimble flower Mar 23, 2021, 8:42 AM

#

But CustomKnight (among others) crashes it after the mod bar loads

gloomy coral Mar 23, 2021, 8:42 AM

I want to know if it crashes when you open a save

obsidian belfry Mar 23, 2021, 8:42 AM

nimble flower Mar 23, 2021, 8:43 AM

#

Which is also in the description I gave 😛

obsidian belfry Mar 23, 2021, 8:43 AM

#

if their problem is w/custom knight, its probably that

nimble flower Mar 23, 2021, 8:43 AM

When I have custom knight enabled, I enbaled it with 1 skin only. Ive also tried with 3 diferent skins and no skins

gloomy coral Mar 23, 2021, 8:43 AM

obsidian belfry if their problem is w/custom knight, its probably that

The problem is game crashing

nimble flower Mar 23, 2021, 8:43 AM

#

gloomy coral I want to know if it crashes when you open a save

I'm playing it right now, so no

#

But yeah that mod-load-bar thing gets to the end and then Hollow Knight just closes itself without any error message

gloomy coral Mar 23, 2021, 8:44 AM

Show me your skin folder

Why?

nimble flower Mar 23, 2021, 8:49 AM

#

Since CustomKnight readme talks about isntalling on a 32 bit folder in C I even squished the game into the specific folder in case the mod isnt very clever

nimble flower Mar 23, 2021, 8:50 AM

gloomy coral Why?

I've done tech support for a decade lol, just part of the process making sure old installs / versions dont leave things behind

I don't really hate him, but basically it's cuz he's an asshole

tidal saffron Mar 23, 2021, 11:54 AM

he just looks like a depressed more aged version of The Knight

ivory aurora Mar 23, 2021, 11:55 AM

#

Did you happen to go over his dialogue recently?

#

That basically all explains how much of an annoyance he is

#

Not a really nice person

#

He's most likely like that cuz of abuse or something when he was young, though

tidal saffron Mar 23, 2021, 11:56 AM

#

yeah he is kinda a jerk but i dont judge him, he is kinda old from what he looks like. so i just ignore him

leave it how it is

dont close the promt

#

just minimize it

the prompt is whats making the ui you're seeing so when you close the prompt the ui technically doesn't exist, cus its host is gone

When I tried to revert back, modinstaller told me "unable to locate vanilla Hollow Knight. Please check the legitimacy and relaunch" or something like that. Anyone else come across that pop-up?

look in hollow_knight_data. I'm assuming this is just the skin pack you downloaded and not your actual game data folder?

#

then there should be a 7z folder in there

#

did you look inside that folder

fair briar Mar 23, 2021, 3:06 PM

.

real jacinth Mar 23, 2021, 3:06 PM

#

and the knight skins are in there now? Maybe they changed the folder structure

#

nice, they made it more user friendly

#

all the knight skins used to be in another 7z folder

#

but this is obviously better

if you want to play steel soul, just delete the file yourself

steel soul changes nothing else besides deleting your save automatically

just do it manually and boom, steel soul

and rancid eggs i guess

but rando changes that already anyways

So hitting to disable modding API/disable all mods and go vanilla? Does literally nothing for me

#

I have to manually deselect every mod in order to actually disable it.

#

And even then it keeps re-enabling some.

#

And the modding API is permenant even when disabling them all.

#

I mean, it disabled enough mods to actually give me the intro cutscenes, but still a little annoying.

#

Idk what mod would have taken away the intro cutscenes besides maybe moresaves or QOL lol

pliant lantern Mar 23, 2021, 4:44 PM

#

ModdingAPI is what removes the Team Cherry logo into.
The "Disable All Mods" button is supposed to replace the modding api with the vanilla file, but it doesn't always work for people (it didn't work for me until I downloaded the most recent installer)

fair briar Mar 23, 2021, 4:49 PM

#

why the long type

pliant lantern Mar 23, 2021, 4:49 PM

#

You can either:

Manually replace the assembly file (there's an assembly file with a .vanilla extension, that you just need to copy and paste, and rename)
Verify Integrity of the game on Steam (this will see that the file is different, and revert it to vanilla)
Disable all mods, like you mentioned (I'm unsure if the installer reverts it when you do this or what, but I used to do this to play vanilla)
if you want, I can upload a "vanilla switcher" that I use. It's a modified version of Jamie's

pliant lantern Mar 23, 2021, 4:49 PM

#

fair briar why the long type

there is??

#

lemme look

pliant lantern Mar 23, 2021, 4:50 PM

#

Yeah, the installers make a backup of it

#

Which is what they use to revert

fair briar Mar 23, 2021, 4:51 PM

#

ehm

#

i dont see

#

it

#

so thats why the revert to unmodded might not be working by some people??

pliant lantern Mar 23, 2021, 4:52 PM

It's either in the same folder as the regular assembly, it it is in a folder above it

real jacinth Mar 23, 2021, 4:54 PM

#

it's also very possible that both vanilla and modded .dll API versions are the API

#

can happen when installer gets reset/redownloaded, etc

#

so the button is working, but just replacing with an identical file

#

best thing to do is verify game file integrity to get vanilla game

fair briar Mar 23, 2021, 4:55 PM

#

yea

pliant lantern Mar 23, 2021, 4:56 PM

#

I was gonna ask "how tf" but I just realized how it would do that, if it assumed the file was vanilla when it made the backup. I wonder if a future update can compare the hash of it first? Or check to see if the file already exists?

short heath Can someone help with my modinstaller problems?

You can try deleting the .exe, and redownloading it, putting it on desktop, then ~~rubbing~~ running as Admin.

If that doesn't work, you'll probably have to try Mod Installer 2

For whatever reason though, most people who are having that issue, are having it with both installers, and afaik no one knows the exact reason yet.

So you may have to manually install mods.

fair briar Mar 23, 2021, 5:00 PM

#

After double checking I did indeed do all of those steps

pliant lantern Mar 23, 2021, 5:07 PM

#

real jacinth so I'm guessing no then

I'm not sure how active you've been over the last ~2 weeks, but have you seen anyone definitively get installer 1 working again if they have that issue?

Since the installers last both updated and the drive changed, I've seen maybe one or two people get it working again (the one I remember most tried 2, it failed, then they tried 1 again and it was working). But for most part, it seems like whatever is causing this most recent issue for people doesn't seem like it is "fixable", and it seems to prevent either installer from working for the person.

the fix to all installer problems: dont use it

short heath Mar 23, 2021, 5:10 PM

#

Thanks for help anyway

pliant lantern Mar 23, 2021, 5:10 PM

#

short heath After double checking I did indeed do all of those steps

I would say try using Mod Installer 2 from the pins, move it to desktop and run as Admin.

If that doesn't work, then you may have to manually install mods.

pliant lantern Mar 23, 2021, 5:12 PM

#

gloomy coral the fix to all installer problems: dont use it

Have you seen anyone get the installer working again if they're having the unhandled exception, since the most recent installer updates?

short heath Mar 23, 2021, 5:14 PM

#

Update: modinstaller2 seems to work

gloomy coral Mar 23, 2021, 5:17 PM

#

pliant lantern Have you seen anyone get the installer working again if they're having the unhan...

my usual answer is use modinstaller 2

real jacinth Mar 23, 2021, 5:37 PM

#

most people that I've seen with this issue either switch to 2 or try rerunning things as admin after a system reboot and it works

#

or they just say nvm

#

or some settings files weren't removed and works after doing that step

#

I think an additional step to verify game integrity prior to trying the new installer might help too. There might be something from the old API that is causing a reference error

#

or the xml file that's put there

#

and installer 1 works just fine on my machine

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

pliant lantern Mar 23, 2021, 5:43 PM

#

Yeah, installer 1 works for me too.
I'll definitely add recommendation steps to

Delete the xml file when deleting the installer settings,
Restart computer before launching (specifically, after deleting installer files and redownloading the installer, but before launching it for the first time).
With how wonky win10 seems if it stays on too long without a reboot, I genuinely wouldn't be surprised if that's been the issue the whole time

real jacinth Mar 23, 2021, 5:46 PM

#

delete all of these, verify game integrity after.

#

starting from vanilla game will probably help

#

and probably deleting any global settings files would help too

At the top of File Explorer, go to View. You may need to make the window bigger, but look for a checkbox that says "show file extensions"

#

And make it checked

#

Then in the mods folder, you should see the file extensions for everything (so the mods you have should all end in .dll)

Modding on Hollow Knight is pretty easy and straight forward. In this video I will go over the basics of modding and how to play with several different mods.
