If you get an error about in installer not working after resetting it, try rebooting your computer

(It sounds silly, but might possibly fix that error)

Has anyone tried the Charm overhaul mod and Exaltation together? If so will my game break if I install exaltation?

[storm zenith]

anyone know how to make modinstaller work on 1221?

[tawny cloud]

How do I ENTIRELY get rid of every single mod.

[limber egret]

Verify integrity of game files

[tawny cloud]

I've done it, but the only thing left is just that. It's fast healing me.

[limber egret]

Hollow Point changes your save file data. You will need to edit the save data to get it back to normal.

I believe it's a Hollow Point issue, anyway. Usually it's "can't heal"

[misty knot]

Whenever I open the hollow knight installer for mac it says its damaged or incomplete. Any way to fix it?

[fervent lantern]

try modinstaller 2

[misty knot]

idk where that is.

[glass meteor]

the pins

[misty knot]

i used the pins

[glass meteor]

when

[misty knot]

around and hour ago

[glass meteor]

I am going to commit a war crime

[misty knot]

?

[glass meteor]

don't worry about it

[misty knot]

ok

[glass meteor]

you're sure it's the most recent one?

[misty knot]

lemme check

[glass meteor]

in theory this should have been fixed

[misty knot]

yep i think so

[glass meteor]

ok

did the zip contain an app and a file called Modinstaller2

Or just the app

[misty knot]

lemme see

it just said mod installer but i may be opening an old file

wait

i was opening the wrong file

i think it might work

[glass meteor]

[misty knot]

hmm i got mod installer 2 but it jusst launches then disapears

[glass meteor]

Is there a log file

[misty knot]

umm i dont think so?

[glass meteor]

Right it's in the shit dir

Hit command shift g

[misty knot]

on the file?

[glass meteor]

~/.local/share

doesn't matter just in finder

[misty knot]

should i type that in?

[glass meteor]

yes

[misty knot]

ok

did that

[glass meteor]

is there a folder called HKModInstaller or w/e

[misty knot]

no

[glass meteor]

Wtf

[misty knot]

ima try installing and reinstalling it real quick tho i might have the wrong file

hmm

the icon has a big X thing on it

[glass meteor]

if that doesn't do anything can you check the downloads folder for something like Modinstaller_2021-03-28.log

[misty knot]

ill search for it on my finder

hmm i dont have anythiing like that

[glass meteor]

right click the app and hit show contents

[misty knot]

ok

yep

did that

[glass meteor]

go into contents

[misty knot]

i did

[glass meteor]

ok

take a picture and send it

[misty knot]

got it

[glass meteor]

command shift 3 or 4 takes one and puts it on your desktop fwiw

[misty knot]

i did im finding the file

HERE IT IS

whoops caps

[glass meteor]

under macos is there something called Modinstaller

[misty knot]

ype

yep

it says ModInstaller2

should i open it?

[glass meteor]

sure

[misty knot]

ok

oh geez is this corrupted?????

[glass meteor]

what does it say

[misty knot]

nothing readable

i can give you the file

[glass meteor]

What's the extension

[misty knot]

it doesnt say

[glass meteor]

good ok

open terminal

drag it in

[misty knot]

ok

yep

did that

should i enter?

its a .app file

[glass meteor]

I meant drag the other thing in

The one without an extension

hit ctrl-u in terminal to clear the line

[misty knot]

ok

did that

[glass meteor]

ok

you dragged in the one with no extension

[misty knot]

yes

[glass meteor]

hit enter

[misty knot]

ok

it says permission denied

[glass meteor]

ok

hit up arrow

[misty knot]

ok

[glass meteor]

Ctrl-a

[misty knot]

ok

[glass meteor]

ls -l

Ctrl-e

and you should have ls -l (the path)

[misty knot]

what is ls -l

?

it did nothing

[glass meteor]

show

[misty knot]

show what

[glass meteor]

picture or just copy the text from the terminal and put it in a code block

picture of the terminal

[misty knot]

ok it might take a sec

[glass meteor]

alright

ping me when

[misty knot]

here it is

idk how to ping 😦

ima noob

@glass meteor ok here it is

[glass meteor]

sick ok

wait is that a space in the path

[misty knot]

?

[glass meteor]

Thank you autocorrect

[misty knot]

ohhhh

[glass meteor]

Oh nevermind it escapes spaces

so you hit up arrow and then put ls -l before the path and it gave nothing?

[misty knot]

"is that a slave in the path" lol

[glass meteor]

🥴

[misty knot]

yes

lemme try it again

hmm

it just says

dskfjoaikjbsndflkgjahjslidfkjh blah blah blah is a directory

soo idk what to do

[glass meteor]

you have ls -l /users/shajjs/whatever

and it should? give a line of info

[misty knot]

?

im confused

[glass meteor]

like you put ls -l before the path you dragged in and it should give this

or you can type ls -l and then drag the file on again

[misty knot]

ok let me try that

by the way is that ls-l or ls -l

is there a space or not?

[glass meteor]

latter

Has a space

[misty knot]

ok

[glass meteor]

and you need a space after the -l before the path

[misty knot]

ok got it

ok finally did it

[stone flame]

does lost lord in modinstaller work?

[glass meteor]

it should

[misty knot]

what should i do with the info

[glass meteor]

give

[stone flame]

lost lord 1.0??

[glass meteor]

just copy paste the line

[misty knot]

ok

[glass meteor]

idk the version but sure

you just go in godhome and fight lost kin

or fight lost kin with lost kin having been defeated

[stone flame]

hmm

[misty knot]

NAME-MBP:~ NAME$ ls -l /Users/NAME/Desktop/everything/NAME/hollow\ knight/mod\ installer\ 2siodhnl/ModInstaller.app/Contents/MacOS/Modinstaller2

[stone flame]

radiant lost kin needs to be beat before lost lord?

[glass meteor]

no just lost kin at some point in your lifetime

on that save

Wtf

Wtf

Why is it not executable

Terrible

[misty knot]

what does that mean?

[stone flame]

ok i think Ive beat him at many points in my lifetime

[glass meteor]

It means the file isn't marked as something that you can run

So the .app doesn't work

[misty knot]

ok

[glass meteor]

chmod 777 (path)

and then try running the app

[misty knot]

ok

[glass meteor]

can you post your modlog and output log

In your saves folder

[misty knot]

ok

it still says its damaged or incomplete

[glass meteor]

can you go to the terminal hit up twice and tell me what it says before NAME staff

[misty knot]

it says: -rw-rw-r--@ 1

[glass meteor]

are you sure you did chmod 777 on it

7 is rwx

[misty knot]

ill try it again

[glass meteor]

by it I do mean the thing without the extension to be clear

not the .app

[misty knot]

yeah

whats an easy way to fix this?

[glass meteor]

presumably the chmod

if this is too much of a hassle I could get my laptop and check myself if you'd like

Don't want to be a bother

[misty knot]

yeah that would be nice idk what im doing

it might be something on my end tho

im not sure if i did the chmod correctly.

i typed:

chmod 777

then i put in the ModInstaller2 file which now says is executable

and yeah

hmmm

i gtg

ill try to be back tmr afternoon

try to fix if you can

pin the comment or something that has the fix

thx for your help so far btw

bye

[glass meteor]

bye

[proud hinge]

I need help, my antivirus keeps killing the mod installer. I've tried turning off the antivirus when installing it, and I can use it just fine, but the moment my antivirus is turned on, it kills the mod installer.

[young shoal]

how do you install mods? im trying to install the speedrun mod but i dont know how to install it and cant find a download for it either.

[proud hinge]

I think that's on github

or just check pins

[young shoal]

do you know what the github page is? i have no idea what im doing.

[young shoal]

i got the mod installer working finaly, but now everytime i open my game it crashes instantly.

[glass meteor]

are you on the beta or something

[novel bronze]

guys help

i installed some mods, got bored, and then uninstalled the mods

now i cant focus

what do i do

[glass meteor]

save edit

[novel bronze]

?

[glass meteor]

i require upload limit

[pliant lantern]

Are you saying you need more than the max upload limit?

[pliant lantern]

You used Hollow Point without reading the warnings

You used it on a main save, and the only way to fix it is by Save Editing

Or reverting your save, if you made a backup before modding

[novel bronze]

how do i save edit

[pliant lantern]

To fix Soul (after using Hollow Point)
🔸 Using MoreSaves from Scarab 1.5 Only!:

• In the Hollow Knight main menu, go to Options > Mods > MoreSaves > Save Edit
• In the search bar, type "focusMP_amount"
• Set the value to 33
• Click "Apply"

🔸 Using QoL (Quality of Life) mod:

• Go to your save files (type ?saves in chat if you don't know where that is)
• Locate user#.json (with # being the save slot number)
• CTRL+F "focusMP_amount"
• Set the value to 33

🔸 Without using another mod:

• Go to https://bloodorca.github.io/hollow/
• Go to your save files (type ?saves in chat if you don't know where that is)
• Locate user#.dat (with # being the save slot number)
• Upload that file to the website
• CTRL+F "focusMP_amount"
• Set the value to 33
• "Download encrypted (PC)"
• Rename it to the original filename (it will download as user1.dat, rename if you edited a different save slot.)
• Move the file back to the save file folder (and overwrite the old one)."

[glass meteor]

Mac

Terrible bug

but the corrupted/can't be opened/whatever is fixed

[pliant lantern]

\o/

Ah, so it's fine here, but an issue somewhere else? If so, then got it 👍

[glass meteor]

yeah

because this server is nitro boosted

the god tech

I'll clean up the mess though

[wicked knoll]

im trying to fix my save after accidentally selecting it with hollow point, and the website cant decrypt the user#.json file

[late vine]

uhhh

in the middle of a run pls help?

nvm, restarting worked

[pliant lantern]

Fwiw, that's a Vanilla bug. It has a significantly higher chance to happen with CustomKnight though

[pliant lantern]

That was a typo on my part. If you're using the website, then you need the .dat file

I fixed the message

If you have the .json, then you can just edit that, and reload the file with QoL again

[wicked knoll]

alright thanks

[glass meteor]

terrible

I would like to ask, is this channel that I can ask questions about skin creation?

I'm sorry if the english is wrong, I'm using google translator

[red hawk]

you probably want #archived-modding-development ? #archived-modding-help is more for people trying to set up preexisting mods

[proud iron]

oh... ok, thanks

[halcyon fulcrum]

Is there better building instructions for https://github.com/HollowKnight-Modding/HollowKnight.Modding for linux than what the readme has? those instructions are… lacking in almost every respect

[runic robin]

Has anyone re-written Lightbringer so that is no longer overrides customknight skins?

[gloomy coral]

Use the mod installer

[gloomy coral]

You can do it for us

[halcyon fulcrum]

just the link to a random exe in the topic? yeah I would like a bit more info to read that just a link to a file

[gloomy coral]

Pins have useful info

[gloomy coral]

Like the modinstaller for linux

[halcyon fulcrum]

ok, random .zip, getting better

oh, it's just a random binary, even better

[torn anchor]

Why can't I attack with the Lightbringer mod?

[gloomy coral]

Wdym you can't attack?

[torn anchor]

The mod just isn't working at all the only thing it does is set me to 4 health and makes it so that i cant attack at all

[gloomy coral]

which other mods do you have?

is it a new save?

[torn anchor]

its a new save and I dont have any other mods

[gloomy coral]

screenshot the main menu

[pliant lantern]

You might need to quit to menu and then resume the file.

[torn anchor]

i have

[pliant lantern]

Your attack should be beams of light, not a nail swing

[torn anchor]

i have no attack at all

[pliant lantern]

Are you on the current patch of HollowKnight?

[pliant lantern]

Also, do this 👆

[torn anchor]

yes im on the current patch

you can barely see the mod list

but its just lightbringer

a better picture of my mod list

[pliant lantern]

Possibly try completely closing Hollow Knight, then relaunching it

[gloomy coral]

Download modcommon

It's required for it to work

[pliant lantern]

Lightbringer doesn't list any dependencies being required, but yeah, I've never disabled Mod Common, so I wouldn't be surprised lol

[torn anchor]

the installer says i have it

[gloomy coral]

It's a dependency. I checked the modlink.xml in the installer

[gloomy coral]

It's probably disabled

[pliant lantern]

ModCommon would be up there too

[torn anchor]

it says its enabled too

[gloomy coral]

Screenshot

[pliant lantern]

Weird. Most mods list them in their readme's too.
New personal rule: just always use ModCommon. It should just auto-install with the API

[gloomy coral]

Try open the game again

And see if uts installed

[torn anchor]

nothing changed

[gloomy coral]

Uninstall and reinstall mod common

[torn anchor]

still nothing

[umbral bay]

this is my first time modding the game. i tried to install the randomizer mod, it installed it and some dependecies, but when it got to Vasi it popped up a .net framework error, making me close out of the installer. In game I have mod names in the top left and a "Mods" menu in the options, but it's empty. In the top left it says this:

so i found the file, and it repeated this 50k times:
[ERROR]:[UNITY] - FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Vasi, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies.

[fair briar]

you need vasi (mod)

did you run the installer as admin?

[umbral bay]

oh i havent yet

[fair briar]

did you place it at desktop?

[umbral bay]

running as admin was the issue

thank you!

[fair briar]

np

[lean kestrel]

why cant i click on the cheats in the debugger menu?

[fair briar]

pause

[lean kestrel]

still cant

[fair briar]

hide the menu, pause, show the menu

[lean kestrel]

nope

[fair briar]

ok

what mods do you have

[pliant lantern]

MoreSaves

[lean kestrel]

serecore
controller vibration
Custom Knight
DebugMod
ModCommon
MoreSaves
Qol
TranslationMod

[pliant lantern]

MoreSaves does a weird interaction with debug

[lean kestrel]

ok

[fair briar]

moresaves it is

[pliant lantern]

The bindings will work though

So you can bind anything to a button, and use the binding

[wheat orchid]

Moresaves needs to die: prove me wrong

[pliant lantern]

I like MoreSaves 🙃

[lean kestrel]

Thx it works now

[fair briar]

its usefull if you dant want to go to your saves and switch them every time

also, why are the docs not updated on ui yet

i dont like TODO

[wheat orchid]

Because no one did them

[pliant lantern]

I wish I understood why it did weird stuff to some mods. It seems like it should be really straightforward. Maybe a new version of it can be made when the new UI /mod-menu mod comes out, as I assume that the ui edits are what borks everything else

[fair briar]

moresaves is just a small mod with not a lot of bugfixes

[pliant lantern]

That, or when Jamie catches up with stuff, and can return to working on the Mod Manager. That would easily allow more saves to die

[fair briar]

mod manager?

[gloomy coral]

They will probs use the same modlinks

[pliant lantern]

Yeah, but iirc the whole point of it was to allow profiles

[wheat orchid]

If they don’t make it, I will

[wheat orchid]

Doesn’t change that the same modlinks would be used

[fair briar]

why are we talking about it here lol

[wheat orchid]

Idk

[gloomy coral]

Whose gonna stop us

[wheat orchid]

Mods

[fair briar]

we have a whole discussion chanel for it xDD

[pliant lantern]

I just woke up, and ramble when I'm half awake

[wheat orchid]

No a development channel

[fair briar]

also

[languid canyon]

If I am transferring a save file do I just move the user1.dat or all the files there

[fair briar]

only the userX.dat

x being save number

[languid canyon]

Got it thx

[pliant lantern]

If you use QoL, then you'll want to delete the .json file btw. It overwrites the .dat file

[soft coral]

my modinstaller says it's updated the hollow point mod but when i go into hollow knight its still outdated and if i make a new save the mod doesn't even work

[wheat orchid]

Did you read the readme

Also if it keeps updating, ignore it

[languid canyon]

How can I edit my profile in order to make it fully complete

Without mods but just by editing the file

[wheat orchid]

Better to just download a save instead

Will take a lot of editing

You can get saves from speedrun.com

[languid canyon]

Ok. But I am trying to setup a save with only specific traits. Like all charms but only wall jump etc. where would I make those changes

And how

[wheat orchid]

Debug would probably work

[languid canyon]

Is that a mod?

[wheat orchid]

Yes

A more popular one

[languid canyon]

Is there a way without using mods?

[wheat orchid]

In game lets you edit a lot of stuff

Yes

Editing the save in a online save editor

[languid canyon]

Ok

[real jacinth]

I would suggest using debug

it will save you a ton of time

[languid canyon]

Any recommendations on a save editor I could use?

[real jacinth]

editing your save works just fine, but you'll have to search through all of the flags in the game for exactly what you want and will probably take trial and error

[wheat orchid]

This is a really good case for debug

[real jacinth]

as far as how to save edit

[languid canyon]

Ok thx

[real jacinth]

you can have exactly what you want from debug in like 10 seconds

getting that with save editing may take you a few hours

[wheat orchid]

days

years

oops... forgot the italics.

[quaint quartz]

does anyone know if you can make the health bar mod work with only bosses? I tried to just delete the regular enemy png’s but they reappear on game startup

[gloomy coral]

If you yeet them, the mod will check for the file and remake it. To "remove" it, you can try replacing them with transparent images

[real jacinth]

or change the scale settings of the bars to 0

[quaint quartz]

ok ty i’ll try the transparent image and if not that I’ll downsize it but it’ll have to be at least 1 pixel or it won’t let me save

[gloomy coral]

Changing scale is easier

[real jacinth]

^

you're not changing scale of the image

you're changing a setting in the mod's setting file

from 1 to 0

or whatever default is

[quaint quartz]

oh got you I thought you meant image scale

[real jacinth]

change fgscale, bgscale, mgscale, and olscale to 0

[quaint quartz]

got it working ty for the help

[severe oak]

anyone know what this means:

[gloomy coral]

use modinstaller 2 from the pins

[real jacinth]

it's looking for a thing that's not there.

[severe oak]

my computer doesn't run it

[real jacinth]

your installer is also in downloads

move it to desktop, run as admin

[real jacinth]

tell it to run anyways

[wheat orchid]

Is there a more info button anywhere

[fair briar]

no more options?

[real jacinth]

more info->run anyways

[severe oak]

i just clicked that

there is no run anyway

[real jacinth]

so go to windows defender settings

and add it as an exception

[severe oak]

how do i do that?

[real jacinth]

https://letmegooglethat.com/?q=how+to+add+exceptions+to+windows+defender

[gloomy coral]

use lmgtfy, it gives an option to compress links to not make it look sus

[real jacinth]

[hot sorrel]

Is there anything I should know before I download the mods for online multiplayer HK?

[severe oak]

why can't i change the resolution or if it's fullscreen if i have mods installed?

[lethal heart]

Im having trouble getting a server running. Can i get some help?

[severe oak]

ok, so i install fyremoth (made by rusty) and got this screen...
what now?

[ivory aurora]

Wait where'd you get fyremoth?

I thought it wasn't out yet

Anyways

Are you certain you have all dependencies needed?

[severe oak]

check desc.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=540ICXOEMVM

[ivory aurora]

Alright, cool

Any other mods you have installed?

@severe oak

[severe oak]

uhhh

not on the game, but on my pc installed

[ivory aurora]

Wdym

Wait a sec

[severe oak]

it's not in the game

[ivory aurora]

Why is modcommon not installed

[severe oak]

but i have it installed

[ivory aurora]

I'm pretty sure customknight needs modcommon to function

[severe oak]

modcommon is installed, this is a different folder

[ivory aurora]

?

Just show the mods folder

[ivory aurora]

Ah alright

And, mm

Where is customknight?

[severe oak]

wait

[ivory aurora]

Also, what are the two Mono. in there

[real jacinth]

and serecore, and vasi

[ivory aurora]

Not supposed to be there

[real jacinth]

and probably other dependencies

[ivory aurora]

So, yeah, just get all dependencies you need

[severe oak]

i'm new to this, so i don't know anything

[severe oak]

what are these?

[real jacinth]

mods

used by other mods

[ivory aurora]

other mods need them to work

When you see a blank title screen, it's usually because these fellas are missing

[severe oak]

back to my question...

[gloomy coral]

Why in #archived-modding-help

[severe oak]

wrong channel

[dusk junco]

oh sorry

didn't realize

[ivory aurora]

Back to the answers...
#archived-modding-help message

[severe oak]

fixed

let me try it

[ivory aurora]

Again, what are these

[severe oak]

they came with MoreSaves

[ivory aurora]

If you say so

More saves is half broken anyways

Would recommend backing up your saves

[severe oak]

got it

also, it works now

Use mod installer 2 from the pins

[raven cove]

Ok
I'll try to delete the folder first

[real jacinth]

resetting you mean?

[raven cove]

ye

[real jacinth]

let us know. we get this error a lot and don't have a good stepwise fix yet

[raven cove]

Didn't work

I'll delete it again and use the mod installer 2

[real jacinth]

where is your installer exe at

[raven cove]

Downloads

[real jacinth]

move to desktop

and run as admin

see if that works

[raven cove]

It can't locate the hollow knight installation folder

Is it just the hollow knight folder?

[real jacinth]

yes

wasn't it finding it before

[raven cove]

Didn't work again

Same error

[real jacinth]

hmm....

did you install mods before?

or no

[gloomy coral]

modinstaller 2?

[raven cove]

Yes i have

[raven cove]

Can you link the message id? I can't seem to find it

[real jacinth]

go to your game files and delete all of them

it's in pins

but I want to try and fix this

[raven cove]

Will it delete my save file?

[real jacinth]

saves are a different location

go to game files, delete mods folder

[raven cove]

Alright

Game files

[real jacinth]

don't delete all game files

just mods folder

[raven cove]

https://prnt.sc/10zam50

This, correct?

[real jacinth]

yeah

[raven cove]

alright

[real jacinth]

then try opening the installer again

[raven cove]

deleted

should i launch modinstaller again

[real jacinth]

yeah

[raven cove]

Seems like it worked

[real jacinth]

hmm.... interesting

[real jacinth]

yeah. looks like it did

[raven cove]

Btw what are the essentials i need to install? For the other mods to work

I forgot

[real jacinth]

they should install automatically

based on the mods you pick

[raven cove]

Alright

Thanks

[real jacinth]

try installing a few, let us know if they install fine

[raven cove]

ok

[real jacinth]

I'm guessing it'll work normally now, but just to be sure

[raven cove]

Works just fine!

Thank you so much :)

[real jacinth]

awesome

[gloomy coral]

So to fix sequence contains no matching element, Delete the mods folder and try again

(doing this so it can be searched)

[real jacinth]

Seems like it

this is just 1 instance of it working, so it'll be good to check with other users

but a good starting point for now
