can the mod installer work on mac
There is a mod installer for mac, so I would assume yes
do you know if it works in the same way?
nope i actually came here witha problem with it
it just says that it quit unexpectedly whenever i try and use it
i hope that gets fixed, do you know who made it?
nope
how long ago did you get it?
like yesterday
i'm very sceptical of downloading stuff cos of viruses are there any hints of one
its not a virus man
there wouldn't be a whole community around it if it was malware
its in the pinned message btw
logical me knows that but i still cant not think it
so did you get the mac installer from the pinned message
yea
yup
and it just doent open?
i wonder why
hit command shift g
what does that do?
Modinstaller 2 is just broken again
if this is mac there's like a 50% chance it wrote a log
your mother is broken again
what does that mean?
i opened the package contents and it worked somehow
interesting
so your mod installers working now?
is the mod installer formatted like it is the one with zote as the image
idk what this means
is it the same as this one, or is it different?

ok thank you
whats different about it? does it work in a similar way?
anyone have a download for ongiri knight
check modding-discussion pins
mk
so it just makes the mod downloading significantly easier? does it download the stuff itself?
the installed? box
thanks! i might get it later
someone help me out on Multiplayer pls?
me and a friend are trying to join a server together we have done everything correctly and restarted
and nothing has worked
Could someone recommend me to get good skins from customknight?
I have no idea how to find a decent one
I believe CrankyTemplar has showcases of various skins? You could check out his channel or just search "CrankyTemplar skin showcases".
thank you very much really!
I'm pretty sure I'm doing something wrong for multiplayer, just tell me what I should normally do so I can find out if I really AM doing something wrong.
Are you using the multiplayer mods or HKMP
Look in the pins
Oh ok nevermind
Dumb question about debug mod, how do you toggle the menu?
Thanks
I love the statement "we have done everything correctly." oh the irony
How do make my mouse locked with debug mod? It drifts as I play and resizes the window on accident
sounds like you need a new mouse
yeah lol. But the mouse position is locked when i play without mods
I'm really new to using mods, how do I do a manual install?
in modinstaller 1 there's a button for that
And not in modinstaller 2 :/

Look in the pins for instructions on how to use them
I have
okay I think that I'm just missing something really dumb
but I am installing mods for the first time
(on mac, I have hollow knight on steam)
and I downloaded the modinstaller 2
opened it, clicked some boxes
and then opened hollow knight and nothing is different
how do I get things to work?
can you get the file for version 1.4.3.2 so I can install mods please
Are you asking for somebody to pirate you a copy of hollow knight?
Or are you asking for mod files
it gives me a error every time when I download the radience mod file
What’s it say?

So the installer is located in your desktop folder?
lol
You do know you aren’t supposed to click the image right?
Look around on discord for anything that looks like what it’s pointing to
thanks for the help I downloaded the mods

how to unbind a hotkey in debug mod
you can click it and then click ` I think
hey I have a surprisingly severe problem
i thought unbinding was done by putting escape as the key (seems logical right?)
but turns out debug just binds escape to the key
the problem is that the setting i bound to escape was "Kill Self" preventing me from ever entering the pause menu or getting the mouse to rebind the key
uninstalling and reinstalling the mod did nothing
also doesn't work when trying to press f1 in the main menu since that just does nothing
how to fix this? there's probably some file with binds and you'd just have to delete it

when i try to dissable a mod modinstaller2 modinstaller crashs
Delete the one you have and download the latest one from the pins
Click the installed box
that's what makes it crash
yeah
hello, can someone tell me how to play the MOD that makes all game a path of pain?
also, I have now tried to use modinstaller, and tried doing it manually (all according to instructions in this thread), and nothing happens at all when I open the game
What happened when you used the installer
Decoration master mod
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-04JcalmOtg&t=226s&ab_channel=fireb0rn
watch first few mins of this video to get an idea how to download the mod. Then download the maps from the pins of #modding-discussion
Here's my guide on installing and using the DecorationMaster Mod, a mod which lets you both customize levels and play other people's customized levels! Credits to Sawyer and shoutouts to 56.
DOWNLOADS:
https://github.com/a2659802/HollowKnight.Decoration/releases
Under "Assets", download DecorationMaster.dll.
I opened it, clicked some boxes. Clicking to disable a mod crashed the installer, so I didn't do that. Opening hollow knight there was no change.
If pressing disabled crashes the installer just install the mods you want and uninstall the ones you don't
Did you use modinstaller 1 or 2
Look for modding api and see if it's updated or not
how do I tell? it doesn't have a description
Are the boxes checked
yes
Then it's installed
Is there any text top left of your title screen?
Is there a mods option in your in game options
no to both
So the boxes for modding api are checked on your installer?
yes
wait!
I tried again
(even though I didn't do anything different this time, and I have tried many times before)
and it works now!!!
or at least there are words on the top left!!
Well that's good. Make sure you only use the installer while your game is closed
But sounds like it's working
Does anyone have like a tutorial video walking you thru how to install the randomizer mods?
open the modinstaller, click install next to randomizer
It was actually modinstaller I was having trouble with, but I think I've got it working...
Hi!
New here, just wanted to ask for a bit of help about how to start the modding process
Rather confused as to how to actually mod the game
Can somebody help please?
Thanks!
(Like actually creating a mod, not installing one)
thanks!
kinda a dumb question but whats a good software for making skins i have photoshop and some other stuff idk whats preffered tho
Anything that can export pngs
So I keep Getting error text documents when I try to open the installer, do you know how I could fix it?
Not with just that info
For some reason with the multiplayer mod, my gpu is getting maxed
Did you turn off vsync
300 fps? So vsync is off
Gpu will run at 100% if vsync is off and framerate isn't capped
hmm
It'll output as much fps as possible
Oh
Seems like turning it on and off again fixed it, dunno what that was about
Thanks
hey i cant the multiplayer to work i have installed both mods and me and my friend are trying to join but we are having difficulty's joining we have the same ip and port in but when we join together and press the connect button we dont sure up for each other
Check the pinned messages
Ok
Fwiw, there's a newer multiplayer mod in active development, that's already working better all-around then the one on the Mod Installer.
Here's a link to the page for it:
https://github.com/Extremelyd1/HKMP
and there is a link on the page to a support server of you need help with it :thumbsup:

sorry
Anyways let me get the file path for Mac
okay
Do everything in the video but instead put the skins in the path in this message #archived-modding-help message
thank you but im still not getting what hes doing
wait i think i might have it
@wheat orchid its not doing anything
i have custom knight instaled
Whats your file path
Or do you mean customknight itself
Maybe i should whatch the vid 
Go to the place but remove the customknight part
Right click hollow_knight and click open package contents
Then data
okay
Shriek.png & Cloak.png are sprites for when the knight gets those abilities correct ?
Pretty sure
The shriek ability being used is in voidspells.png
And cloak being used is in knight?
Not sure
no no i mean we have the sprite that is named Shriek.png is this file used only when the knight picks up the spell or normally when they perform the spell
Look,at what i said
ah i see what you mean now, you answered where to find the abilities which indirectly answers my question that these files are not used at playtime , thanks
Do you have the modinstaller?
Did you install modding api?
yes
And then run the game once?
no
on mac go in resources /data/managed
Then do that
doing now
Oh ok i have bo idea how mac works lol
But starting the game once is reccomended
from what i can tell, the directory works the same way just a different file path
I said pretty sure above that lol
Look at what dandy said
.
that's more sure than i am lol
xD
But you can always check
The obtain for abyss shriek is longer then the use
So more floating action
i think for now i'll just assume its something i can skip lol
But if there is a abyss shriek in voidspells then im 100% sure thet that its only used for obtaining
do i have to start a game
okay`
Instead of data
are you sure you're looking in resources/data/managed ?
You go to resources
Customknight
Place your skins there
Mods > customknight > folder with skins name > png's
Yes unzip
Are in the folder Grimm_Knight png's?
Ss whats in the grimm knight folder
the pngs
Ok then play the game and in the pause menu click on the skin name and you're good to go :)
ty :)
@fair briar uh wheres the place ineed to click
@fair briar theres nothing
did i do something wrong?
(Does anyone remember the dependancies of customknight?)
but
Now im completely confused
This is a screenshot from your video
The circle is where you should be
You're going into Data
Same path after that: Managed, Mods, Custom Knight
is it possible yo use skins with just the ones on modinstaller, or doI need to add those or what, because nothing is showing up for me
Yep, so long as each of those folders just has PNG files in it you're good
Custom Knight from the mod installer is just the mod that allows you to use them. You'll need to download a skin.
You can find them in the pins.
ok thanks, how do i do that
If you're on mac see the info Supernova has just been getting from us. On PC it's just Managed/Mods/custom knight.

Does this work for you, because this looks incorrect and is not the information I just gave to supernova.
Who is now using a custom skin, as you can see.
yep that's what i've been using
lol yep it was a doozy when i was trying to get the *.dll files to compile mod api because the path that every guide said was /managed was devoid of a single file , let alone *.dlls
then i figured lets look in the other directories, what's the harm and found this one and it had all the dlls
I just tried launching modded hollow knight for the impossible any% mod but I cant get it to work. The mods I have installed are Debug mod, Decoration Master, QoL, and Vasi. The problem Im having is the mods arent showing up in the top left and when I try and start the game my save files are forever loading. Does anyone have a fix for this?
Check the pins
to do skins, I should be going thru contents-data-managed-mods, but after i open managed there is nothing in there
mac
Did you get the api?
i don't recongize that so no
Check the pins for modinstaller mac
oh i have the mod installer
and its connected and stuff. I tried out bench warp to see if it works and yeah
Then do you have the api, modcommon and customknight installed
that seems bad
i hit the buttion and now its an orange checkmark if i clcik it again
it just dissapeared
It needs a moment to install
Dont click it again when it is a orange checkmark lol
If it disappeared it probably went down to be in alphabetical order
Go to where it should be in the list and it should be a blue square or checkmark like the rest
yep its all in now
Then run the game once
Just to be sure
Then search for the path again
put the skins at ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/hollow_knight.app/hollow_knight_Data/Managed/Mods/CustomKnight for mac
managed is still empty
Ss your full path
?
Ss = screenshot
Then
Not data but managed
ohhh
if i want to delete a mod how do i do it
well more disable it
i saw the mods in the options but it doesnt show them all
and the installer crashes when i try and do it
uninstalling it works
In your mods folder you can just drag the .dll files into the disabled folder
Then move them back when you want to use them
Don't see what?
the disabled folder
Just create one
ok and where can i find the rest of the mods
What do you mean "rest of the mods"?
i have 11 and i only see two
Screenshot?
custom hp bar and custom knight
is there a way to get essence using debug mod ?
Top right menu should give essence.
But I may also be misremembering
yeah found it , it was under items
@limber egret what should i do?
Are you trying to click with your mouse?
yeah
What happens exactly?
nothing
A user above had a different filepath for their mods. Just double check to see where their were.
Only a few minutes back
Your knight doesn't flash?
i wasn't looking that closely so i'll check
Can you screenshot your whole pause menu for me?
ok got it
It's likely you are either missing ModCommon, or your file structure is still wrong
the files need to be:
managed/mods/custom knight/daughter of hallownest/[png files]
It is common people have an extra folder in there
Also it's common for Daughter of Hallownest to need renaming, but I think they fixed that recently
i found the mods pack with the rest of the stuff what now?
i has charms and stuff in there along with the dll s
and if i click 'change skin' nothing, but if i hit DoH the words flash a sec
@glass haven which mods do,you have?
where do i create the folder?
In mods
Benchwarp (Disabled), custom knight, Debug, EnemyHP, Modcommon, Modconsole, API, pallette swap (disabled), QoL, Transtrans, and vasi
so i make the folder in the mods floder
Try restarting your pc
don;t know what modconsole or common does, but they seemed important
folder*
Yes
i dont know if you guys already tried this, but maybe the folder placement is incorrect?
any specific way of spelling it? like caps or anything
Screenshot the inside of the daughter of hallownest folder, also you should be clicking skin names
Also remove modconsole, just takes up screen space with a little console on your screen that you probably won’t use
Go into the folders until you find the png files, then put them all in the daughter of hallownest folder
You probably will find a .zip file and a hatchling file, so extract the zip file to get the pngs
You wont find a zip iirc
i found a thing called DoH 1.2 filled with pngs
Iirc they aren't zipped. I seem to remember it being setup to drop the root folder over the root HK folder
Place that in the customknight folder
The DoH 1.2 folder
custom knight folder looks like this now
Delete the one without 1.2
Ye
YES tysm!
hey with the healthbar mod.. is it possible to give it an different colour?
i can barely see the health while having small screen
Yes, check out the folder with the sprites for it located in the mods folder
oke stupid question: where is it located? %appdata% i have modinstaller
Go to steam
Right click hk
Proprties
Local files
And press "browse local files"
Then data
Managed
Mods
Enemy hpbar
*hollow_knight_Data
have found it
You can also make it bigger
%appdata%..\locallow\team cherry\hollow knight
Then enemyhpbar.globalsettings.json
it was 1.0 i made it 3.0
but cant check how it looks cuz gf is playing a game in my libraby
hey does anyone know why this doesn't work ? I have several mods enabled
not all mods have a option there
you can see if mods work at the top left of your main menu
I have messed up big time. I have my screen at a lower resolution cuz my computer sucks, and now I froze hk with the debug menu and can’t understand what anything is saying to get me out of it. How do I unfreeze my game and escape the pause menu
I’m using discord on a separate device
alt+f4
Mac
np
how would i change the HK file directory?
i moved the game from an external drive to my C drive and now the modinstaller just says it cant locate game files
im trying to get benchwarp but it isnt on modinstaller2, what do i do?
ah nvm i saw the pinned comment
it is
search for it
its gonna be at B
i wanted to get back to hk w modding this time but cannot find the installer.exe. Thing is I have already installed that long ago, and the enemy radomizer mod is still here in the game. Does anyone know its default location?
just download it again
How do you disable mods? Clicking the check box just crashed modinstaller2
otherwise check your downloads folder
nevermind, im a dumbass that was looking at the installed tab
mac?
Windows
are the tabs finally here? 
use modinstaller 1
k
Are you using the most recent upload of the installer?
I downloaded it from the pinned post
I mean yeah, you can use 1 too. But the 2 crash should have been fixed when it last updated
no
If you downloaded before March 28th
It was updated early March, then again at the end of March
2 has no readme's 
Not entirely true.
2 is made for all systems. 1 is just now intuitive for many people.
I'm actually starting like 2 more tbh, but it still doesn't see mods that aren't in the modlinks :grubsad:
But it has mod descriptions
How would you fix the mods that aren't in modlinks
yeah but that doesn't have that much info
Where is the 1 download?
according to the pins i have to delete the previous modinstaller before i can re download again but i still dont know where the installer.exe is help

1 detects mods that are in the mods folder
Oh like that
ye
Death for it using win+s
They aren't installed- just programs. You can leave it or delete it; up to you
Search*
i tried, didnt get anything, unless it goes by other names than mod, modinstaller, hk, hkmod etc.
When I search for it, it comes
does 2 have a search function yet?
So maybe it's already deleted
oh nice
this is weird because my hollow knight game still has the enemy radomizer turned on?
Modinstaller isn't required for mods
It's just the easiest and recommended way to get them
so it doesnt matter? as i can just go and install a new one?
Mod installer doesn't make mods work
ohhhh
It just puts files in the right spot
ah iget it now
Does hollow knight have official mod support then?
No
yes
Cause if all it takes is dropping files in the right folder it sounds like it
ModdingAPI is what makes mods work
idk what official mod support is whyamiawnseringquuestions
Official as in made by TC then the answer is no
Ok.
Btw, if you already had the API installed, and redownload ModInstaller, then it's possible that the "revert to unmodded" button won't work
Yeah that is happening to me
If you want to play unmodded, you'll need to use Steam's "verify Integrity" option, if that comes up
There's not really an easy fix. I assume distributing the vanilla assembly is frowned upon
just search if there already is a backup
I guess it could check the hash of the assembly before doing anything as well
and if there is dont replace it
when i try to install Vasi, it gives me an error?
What error
i tried that
love a blue screen
Then use modinstaller 2
hello again
where is that?

oh ok thanks
Just ignore what I said
you'll want to go to C:\tmp\HKmodinstaller and delete LICENSE
then restart the pc
then start the modinstaller
there's a list of possible solutions to the controller issues that sometimes happens, is ther a link to that message, or is it pinned
lemme look
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).

(isn't guarranteed to work)
Does anyone know how to modify nail base damage ? (for example, i would like to halve my nail damage, for each upgrade)
hmm
debug mod allows change of nail damage
but only 4 at a time
you can make your own mod, or save-edit
You can do it manually by editing a save
Yeah i saw that
But I would like to do a "vanilla run", like I modify game files, and i never touch it again
I'm surely asking too much lol
I'll use it if I have no other choice
how do you download mods?
?i
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages. 
My english level doesnt let me explain clairly my thoughts lol
But as "vanilla" I say "closest to the vanilla game"
but the options are this
Are mods hards to make ?
As a skyrim mod maker, making mods is very easy
But on Hollow Knight ?
what is the nmae of the mod that gives you a GUN
I can make one for you but like after 1 hour or something
Hollow point
thank you @fair briar !
It's kind dude, but I'll try it myself 🙂
Thank you anyway
Modding on Skyrim is like too easy, they are plenty of tools for it
So let's have fun 🙂
Exiting ?
I dont understand some english expressions sorry 😂
But I think it's something enjoyable
Currently the formula is 5 + 4 * upgrade so you want 5 +2 * upgrade?
Yes 🙂
Yes order lul
probably debug? there's also some other mods that add uis like benchwarp/customknight
oh its gone
So the police can't trace him
(i always forget those im sry)
Can we talk how talented are these people who not only does mod, but also create modding tools ?
-_-
:D
1.5 is max i think to see it right.. and made it green
nice
Hello. I tried the mod installer today and it changed the font and I can't read it. How can I change it back to the default font?
Here is the modlog from when I installed modinstaller. I am using a Windows 10 system and I bought Hollow Knight on steam.
is there a mod that makes hollow knight visible?
delete arts mod
afaik no
Thank you!
im trying to use mod installer for 2 days now, it worked today for 2 hours until it broke again (i had to use "use as admin" the first time but now its saying something about that "the sequence does not contain a matching element")

@unborn linden
hi, I read the info about the mods in the summary but what is the difference between infinite grimm and inferno king grimm ?
huh sorry I got an answer in modding-discussion, sorry for the duplicate question
What does this mean, I think it means it's being installed but you can never be too sure
it means "the installation process is running" from my experience
It means its installing
Infinite grimm is infinite
Makes sense
I managed to install most of what I want (and for info I already played once with randomizer and it worked fine) but royal dreamer and pale champion have an issue
Screenshot main menu
I'll give some more info (but I can do that if you want, not launched the game yet) : royal dreamer looks like it is installing fine but when I quit and relaunch modinstaller it is not installed anymore, while pale champion loads for infinite time
Maybe wait a few mins for it to download before quitting the modinstaller
So y'all understand coding and shit right?
Go to #archived-modding-development if its about making mods
Is there any way to somehow fix an error I made
Ok will do, thanks
How long did you wait after clicking install on the mods and before closing modinstaller
not very long, I think I quit right after seeing all blue
Is there a risk some mods are not correctly installed ?
It may be that these mods are bigger than the rest and hence need more downloading time
Just leave the modinstaller open
ok, I thought I should close it when playing ? and I don't need to reinstall those who appear on the menu right ?
You can't have hk open when using modinstaller
I they appear on top right means your good to go (unless they say failed to load)
Left*
The other way around
There isn't any harm playing the game with modinstaller open (if itsnot doing anything). But there is the other way around
understood. I don't think there is a pin with the basics of using modinstaller2 ?
Why would there be?
well I didn't find any explanation anywhere so I figured it out myself but I was not sure about things like "pay attention to not use modinstaller while game is open"
and there is that question a bit above about "what does the orange thing mean"
it could save some time answering basic questions
(ideally it would be explained quickly in modinstaller though)
For some reason customknight isn't working, when I click on one of the skin options the menu just disappears and when I unpause my character's sprite flashes white for a sec
this is the mods I have installed if it helps
Disable moresaves
Screenshot how you put your skins
like in the folder or in the game?
Folder
Also maybe try disabling multilayer mod idk if it's compatible or not
it didn't work again, also i have to disable and enable it on the pause menu to bring up the skins
Screenshot your mods folder
Which skin are you clicking on
Hmm
i have
Screenshot main menu
u mean like this?
Did you crop it at all?
Where did api go?
Hmmm
Go to the installer and reinstall modding api
i reinstalled it but it's still this
it keeps popping this up and idk why i bought it on steam
Are there any pirated copies of the game installed
nope
That is very strange
i have to disable and enable the change skin menu on the pause menu to bring up the skins
Follow the instructions for resetting the installer in the pins
hey quick questiomn, do you need hamatachi to play with hk multiplayer
Don’t disable/enable in game, broken stuff
No but either that, a vpn like that, or port forwarding(requires access to your router and revealing your public ip) is required
ah ok thanks
Try going to your save files path and deleting all files with global settings in their names

ok that worked thanks someone
I tried waiting 5min after "royal dreamer" was installed but when I quit and reopen modinstaller it is still uninstalled, and I waited 5min (so far longer than other mods) for "pale champion" to install but it doesn't complete (maybe I should just be more patient ?)
also thanks for the help earlier and maybe now even if it doesn't work (I can just test all these new bosses, royal dreamer and pale champion looked like the most annoying)
i put them in a backup folder
it worked
Thank you!
You can manually download both those mods from the link below

Unzip it and place the dll files in the game files-> hollow_knight_data-> managed->mods folder
help, i am on mac, and when i try to open the installer it says that I have macos 10.12.6 and the app requires macos 10.13 or later. I cannot update this. pls help
something else : when I click on an "enabled?" box (in modinstaller2 on windows 10) the programm exit immediatly, I should reset with help from the pins I guess
*reset modinstaller
I tried to reset modinstaller but it just does the same, clicking an "enabled?" box to disable "elderbug god" for exemple exits modinstaller immediatly
Click installed to disable
is there a way to manually install mods on mac? the modinstaller is giving me so many problems
I installed the Hollow Knight DRPC Mod on the installer, but I don't really know how to get it to work. This was in the mod log: Error: System.DllNotFoundException: discord_game_sdk
how could i install the mod installer on linux (ubuntu 20.04)
I don't see anything that looks like that in the mods folder
This is the whole thing

I’ve contacted the author of it to see if they know a fix
Oh yeah. You need to install some folders in a specific folder.
Nice, immediate response
Go to https://dl-game-sdk.discordapp.net/2.5.6/discord_game_sdk.zip and download the zip.
Go inside the zip, then explore inside the lib folder. Extract both x86 and x86_64 folders into
So if I have the Randomizer, how do I start a normal game if I wanted to?
Extract both x86 and x86_64 into C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data\Plugins
k did that
thank you
yeah it looked really cool
so I launched a game as godseeker modeto test if the new bosses work correctly and well not really
inferno knig grimm has new attacks so it seems he works ok
Most boss mods don’t work in godseeker
oh that's why thank you someone
Oh and I thought I would say it here. I'm about to update my Discord RPC mod because I missed some stuff to show properly in RPC from Godhome (it also supports Test of Teamwork mod, though all of them say "Test of Teamwork" in game status)
I have Hollow Knight on game pass but I want to switch to steam. I don't want to lose my save data. Does anybody know which file to transfer to steam and where in the steam files? The files in the pic are from the game pass version.
Should be same location
The save files stay in the same location. No matter which version I suppose
Idk if they are mutually compatible tho
so now if I download the game off steam should the files automatically sync of do I need to move something
what files to backup i'm new to this
You can backup the entire folder I suppose
alright thanks
Heya! So for some reason im trying to run mod installer and this happens
Im not sure how to fix it :/

im trying to uninstall crystalblobbles because i actually want to be able to do p5, but modinstaller isnt opening
is there a problem with it
update: i checked the pins and deleted the folder, and it still wont load.
Hey guys 🙂 I'm new here, setting up a speedrun instance for the first time, and I'm having some trouble installing modding API and DebugMod. I've installed modding api both manually and using modinstaller 2, and the game still does not recognize it. Imma throw some screenshots here, and thank you in advance to anyone willing to help me ❤️
hey can anyone say how to work with the debug mod? like binding things
If you want to play vanilla, then just use Steam's "verify Integrity" option, and it'll revert the game to vanilla.
If you are having issues return the main ModInstaller, then possibly try Mod Installer 2
You might want to also ask in #speedrunning the mod Installer is going to affect your main/default folder though, not the separate instance. And are you sure that the separate instance is what is actually launching?
(Also, if you're playing on current patch, then why use a separate instance?)
F1 pulls up the menu, you need to be paused in-game to use it.
You bind commands by clicking the white circle next to each thing, and your next button press will be the bind.
Ty
actually upon launching mondinstaller it asks me to select the correct folder, so I guess it's affecting the right folder? And yes, I launched the separate instance manually. Also idk why I chose to do a separate instance, I guess just so I wouldn't crash my game completely? Might try on the main installation tho, if that seems to be the problem
does anyone know how to erase keybinds in debug mod?
I tried it in my main installation and it worked 🙂 thanks
Hey guys, first time here. My brother and I just downloaded the mod manager and got the multiplayer server. How does he join to my server?
Yeah, he got the client, i got the server
Should I get client as well? Also what are pins?
?pins
Check the pinned messages for more information - https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/187137504393035776/823796522751623168/unknown.png
Yes
Everyone needs client, host needs server
Also are you using hamachi, port forwarding, or are you on the same WiFi?
Ok
So for that just go into the pause menu with the mods on, the host puts 127.0.0.1 in and clicks connect, then the other person puts the host’s network ip(forgot what it’s called, been a while) and clicks connect
You should appear on each other’s screens afterwards
just the ip of my conputer?
I think so(?)
Been a while since I’ve looked at that stuff
Also don’t share ips with people you don’t trust
Ok
So we can see each other, but the person that joined first can't see the other person move.
Try restarting hollow knight
k
Fwiw, there is a newer Multiplayer Mod that actively in development:
https://github.com/Extremelyd1/HKMP
It's a bit more intuitive to use, and is getting regular updates to improve stability and add features. There's a link to a support server if you have any questions about it.
In this version, is there a way to do co-op? As in we can take on the same enemies together?
What about the other mod?
Nope
It’s getting regular updates while the other one has been deserted
Depends, but probably yes
One of the main reasons I like HKMP: It's a single mod that handles both the Host and Server stuff, so there's no need to worry about accidentally having the wrong things installed. It also can go for really long periods of time without needing players to restart, while the older Multiplayer Mod would randomly cause players to stop staying connected to each-other after an extended amount of time.
pls i need help, i am on mac and the modinstaller is not compatible with my computer, since it's a bit old. I found an older version of the installerr but all it does is open up mono32, then close it. That's it. pls help
try this
This is what it says
I did. But when I open it, it just opens up mono32 for less than a second, then it closes
i downloaded the hollow point mod and now i can't focus
check the pins
thats what it does

im using it
then leave it how it is
then read the readme
huh
its intentional
@zealous chasm these 3 points near your health bar should be full to get healed. once it's full, when you hit an enemy you sometimes earn health until you get hit, then you lose one point
i believe you need to get 2 more 'invisible' points
oh and if you're full then sometimes even 2
(when you get hit)
how does one access the bars for debug mod?
pause?
ahh got it thanks
can anyone guide me on how to install mods
wich mod
