Hi - I've got a debug question. Is it possible to undo 'All charms'? I had an issue with grubfather using QoL and he only gave me geo and not charms/mask shards, but accidentally gave myself every charm using debug mod...

fair briar
#

sadly afaik not

#

i need help with the mod installer by itself

#

basically i can't install more than 1 mod or an error will appear

#

the same when trying to return it to vanilla

#

i have the game in steam

real jacinth
#

did you do what it says

novel bronze
#

oh, there it is the other error

real jacinth
#

make sure you don't have 2 instances of the installer active

#

and make sure the installer is on your desktop

#

and run it as admin

novel bronze
#

ok

Hi guys, I have a problem: my FPS is caped at 30. I've checked my config.ini file and the frameratecap is 60. I've tried to reinstall the game and even reinstall steam. Nothing worked. Any ideas? (playing on Linux)
I asked this on #hk-help and have been told to try and get an answer here.

real jacinth
#

is vsync on? do you have it capped in game? are you capping with an external program? are you capping with gsync? is your hardware good enough to get to 60?

twin vale
#

vsync is off.
framerate isn't cappen in the game.
I do not cap with external program.
I do not cap with gsync.
My hardware is good enough.

novel bronze
#

when i used the steam "verify integrity" thing it deleted the modded api and the modinstaller redownloaded it

fair briar
#

yes

gloomy coral
#

What's the problem with that?

novel bronze
#

and just after that this happened

fair briar
#

thats supposed to happen

fair briar
#

you can live without the readme

gloomy coral
#

Yes love

fair briar
#

i am type

novel bronze
#

i will suppose that it is still loading

fair briar
#

hmm

#

just restart it

novel bronze
#

it redownloaded the same api, the same README error happened, and the same glitched window appeared

fair briar
#

huh

#

so revert to unmodded, mulhima, is now broken

#

can you guess why?

#

just a lil quiz to update you

#

ok the awnser is that the modinstaller took the api infested csharp and maked it the backup

novel bronze
#

i just screwed it up terribly, right?

fair briar
#

nooo

#

you didn't screw up

#

did you run it as admin

novel bronze
#

yes

fair briar
#

ok so manually install the modding api

#

i will give you link

#

then do this

#

open steam -> right click hk -> properties -> local files -> browse

real jacinth
#

why

#

what are you even trying to do marty

novel bronze
#

have fun with some mods

real jacinth
#

why are you trying to revert to unmodded then

#

and did you move the installer to desktop?

fair briar
novel bronze
novel bronze
real jacinth
#

I have no clue what state all your stuff is in anymore, so you should probably just wipe everything and start over.

  1. delete assembly Csharp files in your game
  2. verify game integrity in steam
    3)delete installer settings file
    4)delete installer
    5)redownload installer
    6)move installer to desktop
    7)run as admin

Whenever I try and open modinstaller, it opens for like half a second and then it closes

It should fix if you delete hollowpoint.dll and redownload it from the installer. IIRC if you originally downloaded it with an old version of the installer, something didn't work with the readme (or possibly if you let it "update" then it breaks something?); but letting it install it again seems to properly get the readme.
||That being said, I have the readme page on github bookmarked, so that I can just link people to it zote||

I cant find the daughter of hallownest skin mod, can anyone give me a link?

or something?

pliant lantern

#

ok

novel bronze
real jacinth
#

I highly doubt you did all of what I said

novel bronze
#

and found out that every time i was opening the modinstaller another modinstaller folder was creating

#

hopefully it didn't happened now

and a system restart would help ensure you don't have multiple running

Hey! I was wondering, is it normal that ModInstaller tells me that I need to update PlayerDataTracker and HollowPoint every time I launch it? I click on "yes" everytime and the mods still work perfectly fine, but I just wanted to know if it was a known issue

I'm trying to launch ModInstaller and it refuses to start. I noticed an AutoUpdater file was downloaded after I tried to run it, but launching that hasn't done anything, and I've tried both that and ModInstaller "as administrator", and nothing is happening.

#

Windows 10, and I got it from the link in here

wheat orchid
#

Try mod installer 2 in the pins

real jacinth
#

first pin

topaz spade
#

do I then also uninstall modinstaller 1 or does it usurp it automatically

wheat orchid
#

Nvm do what Mickey said

topaz spade
#

does it mess anything up if I just switch over to the sequel?

wheat orchid
#

Probably not, but you should try what mickely said first

topaz spade
#

ok

unborn warren

Hello. My friend and me wants to play Multiplayer item Randomizer, but we can't connect to each other. Can anyone help us?

dire peak
#

Uhm m and jing have a problem

#

Yeah that

lapis laurel
#

We have tried Multiplayer Server and Client, and the HKMP mod. But both of us cannot see each other with randomizer mod on. When we didn't use Randomizer, it works fine... Can anyone tell us what is the problem?

dire peak
#

Yeah I'm done with the randomizer bull

pastel badger
#

I was trying to use the customknight mod and my game loaded and everything but when I tried to put on the skin and it didn't work. I downloaded the skin from one of the folders that I got in this discord. I could still move around the game and interact with things and even saw the option to equip it in game.

spring bane
#

if you're on mac, you need to create a skin folder somewhere different from where it audomatically generates

spring bane
lapis laurel
#

What is the steps?

#

In our attempt, the host first connect to hamachi ip, then the clients connect

spring bane
#

just uh, steps in general, i'm not actually an expert

pastel badger
spring bane
#

what's in The FatC(r)at

pastel badger

png with the images @spring bane

#

thats the skin

fair ibex
#

do you have modcommon installed?

lapis laurel
#

Yes

pastel badger
#

it shows me that but when i click on the skin name it does nothing

#

also modcommon is on the top left

wheat orchid
#

It needs to be Hud

pastel badger
#

how can I fix that?

wheat orchid
#

Renaming the file

#

Just like any other file

fair ibex
#

oh right i'm dumbgrimmpalm

pastel badger
#

yay it worked

#

ty

#

:)

lapis laurel
#

So is it possible to play Randomizer with Multiplayer?

wheat orchid
#

Yes

lapis laurel
#

But why there is a problem with it?

wheat orchid
#

There isn’t?

lapis laurel
#

Well before We play randomizer, everything works fine

wheat orchid
lapis laurel
#

We cannot see each other

#

And actually we are using HKMP mod before because even without randomizer the multiplayer server and client won't work

wheat orchid
#

Ok

#

Are you on the hkmp discord server

lapis laurel
#

no

#

there is a discord?

wheat orchid
#

I’ll dm

#

How did you get the mod

lapis laurel
#

from github

wheat orchid
#

Ah

analog linden
#

Which mod was it where the items are randomized?

#

Its randomizer 3 correct?

wheat orchid
#

Either randomizer, but 3 is more updated

analog linden
#

Alright

#

How do i make it work?

limber egret
#

Download it from the mod installer

analog linden
#

Because i have it enabled but it wont function

#

I did

#

I dont see it in the mods option thing

limber egret
#

Does it show in the top left corner?

#

Did you try starting a new game?

wheat orchid
#

Are you using mod installer or mod installer 2

analog linden
#

I also wanted to use enemy randomizer which works perfectly fine

limber egret
#

Not all mods show in the mod options

analog linden
#

This

limber egret
#

Does it show in the top left corner of the main menu, and did you try starting a new game.

analog linden
#

For the load enemy randomizer? Yes; but for the randomizer 3 nope

#

I mean randomizer 3

wheat orchid
#

Screenshot the main menu and the installer

analog linden
#

Ok

limber egret
#

You might need Vasi. Download that

analog linden
#

I already have it

#

And enabled

wheat orchid
#

Rando is showing up

#

Get Qol

#

Required for rando tmk

analog linden
#

K

limber egret
#

Have you tried starting a new game?

wheat orchid
#

Try creating a save now

analog linden
#

No not yet

#

Alright

wheat orchid
#

lol, you need that for rando to work

analog linden
wheat orchid
#

Also don’t load non rando saves with rando, it breaks them

analog linden
#

Ah thanks for the reminder

wheat orchid
#

Np

analog linden
#

Also i just want the item randomizer

#

Which option just puts item randomizer?

limber egret
#

You are in it

analog linden
#

Oh ok

#

And what does cursed mean?

limber egret
#

Read the readme

analog linden
#

I cant

#

Because i cant extract it

wheat orchid
#

Open it in notepad

analog linden
#

Oh ok

#

Ohhhhhhhhh now i understand

#

I appreciate the help thanks guys grublove

heavy frigate
#

does the room randomizer mod include anything from PoP?

#

hoping no but thought I'd check

limber egret
#

Yes

#

I think the only room that isn't included is THK

#

That stays connected as normal, I believe.

heavy frigate
#

so there's a chance that you can start out in King's Pass and instantly be dropped into a room full of buzzsaws?

real jacinth
#

unlikely since you'd have no movement abilities so the logic wouldn't allow that

heavy frigate
#

that's good to know

brisk shale
#

Can anyone link me the github page of the latest Hollow Knight Modding API that the new mod installer exe uses?

visual crater
#

what website should i get mods from?

nimble fiber

I tried to redownload the modding api, but any time i try to open it, it says it can't locate the hk game files.

#

redownload hk

topaz spade
#

so with Exultation, I got the Radiant Oro and Mato (using unlimited masks, if that's relevant. I was debugging because I had an issue with other charms not upgrading and wanted to test this one), but didn't get the upgraded version of Quickslash. Is there a known solution to this?

native mortar
#

is the pale king skin really unavailable or is it still possible to get the skin files

#

(ping me if you answer pls)

iron laurel
#

Someone made a different one

#

uh actually, never mind

native mortar
#

it says i need access cicadaCry

iron laurel
#

just checked, saw it was unaccessible

native mortar
#

yeahhh

iron laurel
#

you could ping the creator though

nimble fiber
#

I have a copy of that, is it allowed for me to share it via dm?

native mortar
#

i dont mind but i dont think thats what ur asking

iron laurel
#

just saying it is still in testing phase I think, so it might be incomplete

spring bane
#

yeah, they're still developing it, i think they said they'd make it public when they're done?

#

there's some sort of challenge for the rest, it's probably back in history what it is, you dm methylpalladium when you beat it

Hey there, anybody around? Gonna try to include any and all pertinent info. Experiencing just a minor controller hiccup. I'm using a mac, I tested to make sure PS4 controller worked before downloading modinstaller. Seemed to work fine. Install mods (item and room rando) go back to check that it's still working okay. Mods works fine, but controller not being picked up. Did some googling, found someone with similar issue, launched game through Big Screen Mode, with some toggling eventually got the game to recognize that a controller was plugged in, but it's still not recognizing it. Controller is working in the Big Screen Mode menus, but as soon as I load up HK, no dice. Any ideas? Thanks.

#

To clarify: When I'm in the controller menu, it seems to know there's a controller there, but it doesn't recognize any of the inputs. That sentence was awkwardly worded in initial message.

#

Thanks in advance!

pliant lantern
# trail sable Hey there, anybody around? Gonna try to include any and all pertinent info. Expe...

ModdingAPI (the things that auto-installs when you launch ModInstaller, and is required for mods) messes up controllers for some people, for some reason.

Common things to try:

  • In my case, I had to use Steam's Big Picture Mode to "Force Controller" in the settings for Hollow Knight. With this solution, I have to have my controller plugged in before I launch Hollow Knight, otherwise steam doesn't do its thing.

  • In some cases, waiting to plug in the controller until after you get into the Main Menu makes it work.

  • In some cases, using a program (such as Steam's Big Picture, or Joy2Key, or similar) to remap all of the controller buttons to act as Keyboard inputs fixes it.

Assuming you're on Windows, you may also want to toggle "Native Controller Input" in Hollow Knight's settings (in the Main Menu, Settings, Controller settings). If it's ON, then turn it OFF (and vice versa). That may also fix it (that was another problem I had at least)

trail sable
#

Okay! I am on Mac, but I'll mess around with all these options and see if I get anywhere. Thanks!

#

If you're still around, where on Big Picture should I head to do that keyboard inputs? That seemed to be what worked for the person I found who had similar issues, but I feel like the things I'm looking at and toggling aren't actually changing anything. Oddly enough, when I'm in game, I can still access the Steam menu page with the controller, but it doesn't recognize any other button.

trail sable

Got it! Thanks for your help!

Hello, sorry for my bad English
I want to play HK 1.5 version with rumble support so I compiled 1.5 modding api from source
ModCommon and DebugMod is not compatible and I'm curious is there any updated version for this mods or github with source code for it to compile?
I tried InfiniteNotches and it works as expected, but compartible DebugMod is all I needed right now
Thank you

fair briar
#

Prob not

#

Most mods don't work w/ beta

that's sad, thank you

I died somewhere and when I respawned in the city of tears I couldn't do anything and had to alt F4

One time out of 10 it didn't lock like that

gloomy coral
#

so it happens when you die?

#

I tried disabling enemy randomizer and QOL, nothing changed

When I die and when I load back there

I had every charm in the game before starting Godhome. What's supposed to happen is you defeat a certain boss on a given difficulty in the Hall of Gods or complete Pantheons with some bindings or whathaveyou, and it changes some of your charms to upgraded versions when you beat those enemies, but it's not upgrading Quickslash, and a couple other charms whose names I don't remember

um so I installed the mods, Grimmchild upgrades, I then wanted to uninstall it so I did, but when I went into Hollow knight it was still there, and also when I reopened the modinstaller it said it was outdated and need an update ( even though it was uninstalled), and i'm a complete boomer with mods so I uninstalled every mod I had on and deleted the entire, yet when I reopened hollow knight it was still there. Any tips?

Does anybody know how do I bind my A button on nintendo pro controler for my F key on keyboard. I can play normaly on the newest version but i just downloaded the old 1.2.2.1 version and it doesnt register my controler in settings but i managed to go to keyboard settings in the game and i binded everything except the focus/cast which should be the A button. I tried using JoyToKey but its very confusing or it just doesnt work on nintendo pro controler.

you're probably missing the API, click the box next to it that says Out of date!

is there like a mod for downpatching instead cos i kinda wanna do it legit

limber egret

No

You just have to downpatch

twilit sable
#

oh okay

limber egret
#

Either it was miscommunicated, or you misunderstood the "speedrun mod" that may have been mentioned.

#

It's likely you don't want the speedrun mod at all.

#

The downpatch guides will also tell you how to have multiple hollow knight installations. This will allow you to create a separate modded installation for practice etc

twilit sable
#

oh cool

#

thanks dude

#

what

limber egret
#

I am not a dude

But you are welcome

Heyo! I am trying to get the CustomKnight mod to work, and I have followed fireb0rns tutorial. But when I get ingame and choose my skin, nothing happens. The knight flashes white for a second, and then my skin isn't equiped. Anyone know why it doesn't work?

wooden geyser
#

how do i open the mod manager

#

@plush schooner

#

did you install any actual skins

#

or did you just install the mod

#

because you need to manually put the pngs in ur folders

plush schooner
#

I just installed the mod, then I downloaded some skins

#

I did

wooden geyser
#

where did you put the skins

plush schooner
#

In my hollow_knight_Data, Managed, Mods, CustomKnight, then made a folder and put the pngs in

wooden geyser
#

ok well sounds like you did it right

#

im pretty sure custom knight

#

needs mod common

#

did you install that?

plush schooner
#

I wasn't enable. I'll check in a sec. Going through ending credits

wooden geyser
#

ok see if that helps

#

I'm not 100% sure if its required

but i have it on and mine works

cold vale
#

someone in the help channel told me to here with the issue because it sounded technical, so basically I cannot use my focus button to heal, but I can use it to cast spells...
important details: I verified my game files, I reinstalled the game, there are no mods currently loaded, I had mods installed at one point, the keys are bound properly but it doesnt work on either keyboard or controller.
I presume it was caused by quick focus but even after unequiping that it doesnt work after everything I tried

wheat orchid
#

Are you accidentally using quick cast instead of focus

#

Also did you use hollow point on the save(s) you are testing on?

cold vale
#

1, no Im not doing that
2. yes

#

ahh I found more about this issue, will try to fix

Read the hollow point readme

feral willow
#

hi! I think i've fucked up my game a bit, I wanted to remove the modconsole from my game but the mod installer 2 isn't allowing me to uninstall it. also the original mod installer, when launched, shows me "D:\program files (86x)\steam\steamapps\common\hollow knight\AU.exe" and then closes automatically.

limber egret
#

Right click "verify integrity of game files" on your steam or good old games hollow knight icon

#

Then just don't open the mod installer again

#

Oh, I may have misunderstood

feral willow
#

ah okay, that was the next thing i was planning on doing but i wanted to check if it was something with the modinstaller

limber egret
#

You said mod console

feral willow
#

yes

limber egret
#

Sorry

don't worry! i should verify the integrity anyway

i know how to access my saves in appdata, but don't know what to delete or replace

user1.dat, user2.dat etc are the first, second, etc. saves. so rename the file to whichever save slot you'd like it to appear in and plop it in there

limpid shore
#

isnt the download a .rar though? does that not matter?

gloomy coral

it does matter

#

you have to extract the .rar file

Hi. Does anyone have a list of hk room names with easier references, by any chance? I'm running randos but i don't understand the references in the help files. Things like "Ruins2_10b[left1]" 😕

#

Or failing that, would anyone be able to explain where these 2 places are:

  1. Deepnest_42[top1]
  2. Ruins2_10b[left1]
    I mean, presumably 1 is in deepnest, but i can't work out where 😕

Hey, so.. I just did what it said to do in the pinned messages for indefinite loading save files, then tried to rerun the game, but I have only been given vanilla for some reason. I then tried reinstalling the modding api, but it didn't do anything and I can only start the vanilla game

gloomy coral
#

which file did you delete

#

screenshot your main menu

tidal grove
#

both of the ModdingApi.GlobalSettings files

#

and

#

it's just vanilla

real jacinth
#

is there a mods page in options

tidal grove
#

oh, yeah there is

#

i didn't know to check there, one moment

real jacinth
#

so your API is there

#

follow the instructions of the same pin, but for benchwarp

tidal grove
#

Oh, I didn't realise I had to do benchwarps too, be back in a moment
thank you for telling me

real jacinth
tidal grove
#

Oh, that worked
thank you, and i'll keep that in mind if it breaks again

where do I download mods?
