[fair briar]

The arena where you fight hornet

Makes sense

Descritptive enough

[pallid galleon]

yes

the area with the broken vessels and monolith

I really need to change my bg tho haha

had the same dragon pics for over 3 years

[novel bronze]

my friends modinstaler isnt working

[fair briar]

Whats the error

[novel bronze]

it opens but there is nothing just a blank tab

[fair briar]

Yeah but there must have been an error message

[novel bronze]

can u fix it

[fair briar]

If you tell me what the error is

[novel bronze]

it opens the instaler but there is no mods on there its just blank

[gloomy coral]

Screenshot what happens when you open the installer

[fair briar]

There must have been someyhing like this

[tiny ledge]

hey since i installed the mod to have custom skins i noticed that ennemies don't respawn when i leave the room and go back in and i'm pretty sure they were respawning before i installed it

[fair briar]

Which room

[tiny ledge]

every room sorry if that's not understandable my english sucks

[fair briar]

Which mods do you have?

[coral bone]

is there any assets to make your own skin mod?

for example normal sprites of HK

i just want to try and make my own skin

[fair briar]

1. #modding-discussion
2. Check pins of #art-discussion

[tiny ledge]

i only have the mod for the skins

i don't remember the name

[fair briar]

Do you have modcommon?

[coral bone]

oh found it

ty

[fair briar]

Check the default folder at you customknight skins location

[coral bone]

it has nothing in it

anyway, can custom knight resprite anything or only spells and knight sprites?

[fair briar]

Well i would say only the things in the default folder but...

Charms spells knight and knight hud

[tiny ledge]

yes i do

[coral bone]

hm, ok ty

[pliant lantern]

Specific enemies respawn only after you sit on a bench.

[tiny ledge]

oh ok that might be the reason thank you !

[novel bronze]

hey guys do you know kow to contact twp

how

[fair briar]

ask in #art-discussion

[frosty bobcat]

Hello here!

I was wondering, is there a way to mod the game on switch? I often play with my switch while watching something else on my PC, and It's a little sad to only have a modded game on steam (so demat), but just a bland version on my switch, witch is more comfortable to use (and feel better cause I love owning a physical version of my games)

[fair briar]

no

[frosty bobcat]

Sad, but not surprising. I hope one day nintendo change their politic on "no mods". Thank you dear!

[prisma briar]

hello, i'm on Macbook Pro and when ModInstaller asks me for Hollow Knight, i'm choosing Hollow Knight in my Applications but the ModInstaller crashes everytime. Do you know what can I do? I tried to move the game but it doesnt change anything

asks me for Hollow Night path*

[gloomy coral]

Screenshot this
Go to steam -> right click hollow knight -> click on properties-> click on local files -> click on browse

[prisma briar]

and it goes where my game is currently, in my application folder

[gloomy coral]

And you're point the installer to the hollow knight.app in that folder?

[prisma briar]

yes, and it crashes

[gloomy coral]

Is the Installer on the desktop

[prisma briar]

yes i tried with the installer on the desktop

[gloomy coral]

Right click on it and open package contents

And open the executable file

[charred raft]

can you mod the gamepass version of this game?

[prisma briar]

i dont have an executable file

[novel bronze]

Minor issue, I can't disable mods. I can uninstall them but can't disable them

[gloomy coral]

Click on Mac os folder

[novel bronze]

If I disable a mod the modinstaller crashes

[gloomy coral]

Delete the one you have and download the most recent one from the pins

[novel bronze]

I have the most recent one

Unless it updated within the last 4 days

[gloomy coral]

Which os?

[novel bronze]

Windows

[gloomy coral]

10?

[prisma briar]

same problem with the executable

:/

[novel bronze]

Yep

[charred raft]

that's a bummer. I had to do a bunch a shit to give myself access to even see the windowsapp folder....so lame honestly.

[gloomy coral]

Does it say something before crashing

[prisma briar]

it worksssss

thanks 😄

[novel bronze]

And this is specifically the unnoffical hollow knight patch, I haven't tried any other mod yet

[gloomy coral]

What worked?

[prisma briar]

it asks me for the path for Hollow Knight and this time it works

with the executable file

[gloomy coral]

That mod doesnt do anything

[fair briar]

Connect monitor and tv to pc, start hk on the tv screen and yt on the other one

Problem fixed

[prisma briar]

Hey, i've got a question : if we are playing multiplayer, can we fight the same ennemis together or is it just the same map and doesnt affect my game?

[gloomy coral]

Option 2

[prisma briar]

argh. but i've seen on youtube that they are fighting bosses like Hornet together, how is it possible?

[fair briar]

Which one

Link the vid

Im curious

You can hit another players enemy's, but not see them and hp is not shared

[gloomy coral]

You are able to hit the enemies on the other person's screen but you can't see them

[prisma briar]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=801De0Z0WDI

[fair briar]

Time?

[prisma briar]

the first ten seconds

[fair briar]

Oh wait

Isnt this multiworld rando

Idk how multiworld rando works

[prisma briar]

arf

[fair briar]

Lemme read the readme

As all should do

[prisma briar]

let me know if you find something

[fair briar]

Multiworld rando does not sync enemy's

So thats a no

Maybe i should watch the vid 🤔

I watched the vid and you can clearly see that jamie is fighting a different hornet as seen by the pogoing of air

[gloomy coral]

It this

[fair briar]

Yes

[fair briar]

No it this

[gloomy coral]

No it both

[fair briar]

Oh and maybe of the ones on the readme list that dont have a readme yet, does there even exist a readme for them

You could make the yourself

Or i can if i stop being so lazy

[gloomy coral]

I mean they don't really need one, the descriptions suffice

[fair briar]

Yeah

But then there need to be descriptions

[gloomy coral]

One day there will be

[oak fog]

Having a hard time figuring your Modinstaller2. Do I download my mods from there too?

[fair briar]

yes

[strong quiver]

when was the last time the mod installer was updated? is it updated in app? i haven't played this in a while and don't see the resources so i am not sure

[fair briar]

5 days ago

[oak fog]

So how do I view the details on the mods? There's a dropdown with a very brief description. Is that all I get?

[strong quiver]

how do i get a new copy of the modinstaller mine is broken and wont load

[fair briar]

check pins

[fair briar]

download the new one

[oak fog]

The Readme Collection? What are some of the best mods? Also, is there an invincibility mod?

[gloomy coral]

Yes, read the mod summaries (also in pins), there's a invincibility feature in debug mod

[strong quiver]

thank you so much for help can play one of my fav randos again

[oak fog]

Awesome thank you!

[oak fog]

Sorry, obviously kinda new to mods... with Debug Mod, can I choose which features apply, or do they all automatically?

[fair briar]

You can choose

[oak fog]

And in Modinstaller, once both Enabled and Installed are checked, does that mean they're automatically applied, or what else do I need to do?

[fair briar]

Yep

[oak fog]

Cool thanks for help.

[fair briar]

Installed means if its installed and enebled is for enebling/disabeling mods in game without having to delete and download them

[novel bronze]

i got hamachi and all that now how do i find the ip and join my freind

[fair briar]

The ip is above

Smth like 162.827.828.1

[oak fog]

Ah, gotcha. Thank you. Mods have never been this easy, so I guess I was overthinking it haha.

SereCore? It doesn't have a description in the Readme. Can anyone tell me what it does?

[vernal rain]

library for other mods to function, replaces SeanprCore

[novel bronze]

can someone help me with the multiplayer mod

[oak fog]

So if I have other mods, its important to have that one?

[novel bronze]

i have hamachi but i stil cant fighur it put

[vernal rain]

depending on the mods you use it may be necessary, but it doesn't hurt having it installed, so i'd download it just in case

[oak fog]

👍 Thanks.

Infinate Notches says it "might mess with saves." Does anyone know more about this? (Doesn't have a readme).

[vernal rain]

once installed and loaded+saved in a save you will have 2000 notches even if you uninstall the mod, you'd have to save edit to get rid of that

[oak fog]

Okay, is there a better mod that does something similar?

IDK how to save edit haha

[bleak zephyr]

Im trying to do an item randomizer and Im following this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P95_Y62UCII

But I do have/cant find the full randomizer folder (1:36)

[west bane]

there's no such thing as a full randomizer folder

?i

[dense shuttle]

Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages.

[west bane]

randomizer 3

[bleak zephyr]

then whats he looking at?

[west bane]

idk

[bleak zephyr]

randomizer 3 looks like a file for me

[oak fog]

I added Debug and Easy mods. Now I have a bunch of menus in my screen. Can I only manage them with my mouse? Not Controller?

[west bane]

try with controller

[oak fog]

Also, I pushed hide menu. How do I bring it back?

[west bane]

f1

[bleak zephyr]

what do I do from here

[west bane]

launch game

you might need modcommon too, dunno, but best to get it just in case

[bleak zephyr]

theres still 5 minutes of the video left though

[bleak zephyr]

this one

is it outdated?

[west bane]

which is

[bleak zephyr]

what do you mean?

[west bane]

what mod is outdated

[bleak zephyr]

the video, not the mod

Im asking if the video is outdated

it was august 2019

[west bane]

launch the game and you should be fine

[bleak zephyr]

ok

Thank you

[green anvil]

so, after downloading the Controller vibration and the hollow point mod, my saves doesn't load when i open the game. Can someone help me?

[bleak zephyr]

What does duplicate major items mean?

[oak fog]

How do I manage which parts of Debug Mod I want to use?

[west bane]

spells / abilities are duplicated

[west bane]

F1, click on the menus

[bleak zephyr]

Does that mean it's impossible to get 112%

[oak fog]

Thanks! Same question for Easy Mode mod?

[west bane]

no, i believe they're just randomized by additional slots in shops, you can get 112%, but you might find multiple monarch wings

[limber egret]

Check the readme for how Rando works, @bleak zephyr

[west bane]

i don't believe there is a UI for easy mod

[limber egret]

Much of it is covered in there

[oak fog]

Kay thanks. I just accidentally added all the charms to my inventory, but I didn't want to, is there a way to undo this?

[west bane]

i dont believe so

[oak fog]

Or reset the whole mod?

[bleak zephyr]

What is fast grubfather?

[west bane]

youll just wanna start a new save

[oak fog]

Okay, thanks.

[limber egret]

I believe that's part of QoL mod.

Check the readme for that also

<@&328354344313421825>

[versed needle]

that doesn't even sound like a mod issue

[bleak zephyr]

Well no one's responded after 15 minutes

[pliant lantern]

That's probably because people have lives 🙄
People try to help other people in this channel, but it's not like anyone is professionally/paid to help you in 15 minutes or less, so justhave patience, and if for some reason someone misses your message, but people are clearly active, then ask again.

At any rate, like Serena said, that doesn't really sound like a mod-related issue. You might wanna check if this happens in Vanilla. Normally, if a person has controller-issues when modding, then either it's that A- the controller crashes the game if pluggen in when starting, or B- the game doesn't recognize the controller inputs.
The controller suddenly "cutting out" isn't a thing that I've seen though, so I doubt it's mod-related.

[bleak zephyr]

My controller had issues before but not this severe, I used to get phantom inputs but now I'm not able to move for more then 5 seconds at a time

[pliant lantern]

Hardware degrades over time and usage, tbf. Again, I would reccomend checking to see if it is happening in vanilla.
Alternatively, open up the controller properties, and test the inputs. If you're on Windows, it'll show you exactly what it's reading.

[bleak zephyr]

I don't know how to do any of that, but I got this controller a month ago and it's been doing that since I got it

[pliant lantern]

I don't know how to do any of that
?

There was two things I suggested, and I'm not sure if you literally mean that you don't know how to do either, or if you just meant checking the controller properties.

• To test in Vanilla, just revert your game to vanilla (such as by using Steam's "Verify Integrity", or using the ModInstaller's "Revert to unmodded"), and just play in Vanilla. You will then see if it's working or not.

• To check the controller properties, which is an easy way to see inputs, Press Windows Key to bring up the start menu, then just type "controller". Select Setup USB Game Controllers, then select your controller, and click properties.

[oak fog]

Can Debug Mod be used then turned off, and not effect the gameplay after it's turned off?

[upper jetty]

I’ve used debug in some different files, then uninstalled it and wouldn’t glitch out the game or anything. If that’s what you mean then I believe you can have debug installed then uninstall in and still be able to play of the same file and not have it effect any gameplay

Has anyone by any chance been experiencing problems with item rando in the seer room? Everytime I go in there and try to pick up the fourth (or sometimes third) item from the left, it freezes the knight in position, but never shows me what the item is usually after I’ve gotten dream nail

To be more specific, it hardlocks the game if I try to check those items specifically and doesn’t affect the other items

[pliant lantern]

Most things that debug mod does are going to permanently affect that file, if that's what you mean. If you increase your damage, for example, that saved to the file itself.

You might want to make a backup of your saves just in case you need/want to revert them.

[pliant lantern]

• What all mods are you using?
• Which version of Rando are you using?

[carmine lily]

can i mod on cp?

[limber egret]

You can only mod cp

Unless you have some of the very specific mods made for older patches

[carmine lily]

oh '-'

thats why it crashed

[oak fog]

So what about aquired items? For example, if I use the Mothwing Cloak before fighting Hornet, but then unmark it as gotten, will it be there when I beat Hornet, or will it be missing?

[limber egret]

You might have to just test some of this stuff yourself

Nobody will just know all of the interactions the different parts of debug mod has. Open a file, give yourself cloak, kill hornet, and see what happens.

[oak fog]

👍 Aight thanks.

[limber egret]

My guess would be that the pickup spawns. If you pick it up then it won't be there whether you have cloak on or off anymore.

sorry to bother im very new at modding in general and not very tech savvy to begin with, im trying to get modinstaller to work but this is pretty much all i can get from it http://prntscr.com/11lr4hw

how do i remove binds in debugmod

[pliant lantern]

You can either re-bind them, or delete the debug global settings in your saves folder

i cant rebind them to nothing

how do i delete the global settings

[pliant lantern]

Go to your saves folder Save Files: %APPDATA%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\,
then delete the debug files

Easy way to get to the folder:

• Press ⊞ Win + R
• Copy and paste this into it: %appdata%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight, and hit "OK"

[carmine lily]

i dont see it

[feral pelican]

i did end up getting it! ty

[pliant lantern]

Are you scrolled down too low? Default sort is alphabetically, and you're scrolled down to U

[carmine lily]

these are all files, there is nothing more

forget it, i closed hollow knight and the files appeared

[pliant lantern]

lol. Yes, all changes to stuff like this should be done after closing the game

[velvet wasp]

So one of the mods I have broke the dreamers and now the black egg temple is locked, is there a way to teleport inside with any mods

Benchwarp

[velvet wasp]

how? can't you only warp to benches you've unlocked

[pliant lantern]

In settings you can unlock all benches

Also, the current version of Benchwarp lets you warp to any room at all

[velvet wasp]

these are the only settings I have for benchwarp

assuming these are the settings you're talking about

[pliant lantern]

I can't open the game right now, but the option for it should be at the top-right of the screen iirc

[velvet wasp]

oh I found it

thank you

can anyone help me get the twitch mod set up

it says its active in the game but i need to do all the technical stuff through the saves which im having trouble with

does anyone know how to easily remove mods

[velvet wasp]

you can open the mod manager and disable them or completely uninstall them

[elder hound]

hi i installed the mod installer a while ago and messed around with mods, but i got kinda bored of it and stopped using them so i deleted the mod installer, and deleted the mods folder in my actual hollow knight files, but i am still infinitely jumping for some reason, is there a fix for this?

[vague oak]

He's uninstalled hollow knight multiple times and reinstalled it, he's uninstalled mod installer multiple times and reinstalled it, he's restarted his computer, at this point I have no idea what to do. He still gets this every time he trys to load up the game and mod installer is enabled

[gloomy coral]

Check pins

[gloomy coral]

Redownload debug mod and then off infinite jump

[gloomy coral]

Read the readme or look up a video on how to do it

[elder hound]

alright ill try

ok wait hold on its only affecting one save file

hmm

lemme still try

[gloomy coral]

I assume it goes in saves file location

[fading cosmos]

where is the white palace map on AdditionalMaps?

[vague oak]

thank you

[elder hound]

that worked tysm i wonder why it was doing that, especially for only one save cuz it wasnt even showing any mods "installed" in the top left corner of the main menu

[wispy glacier]

um i went to the debug mod API download link but it only shows me this

[west bane]

what are you trying to accomplish

can i add debug mod 1.2.2.1?

[pliant lantern]

You need to unzip it.
The file structure needs to be identical to how the Default one is

So, just a named folder with the pngs

[novel bronze]

i tried that

well the folder and the png

[pliant lantern]

There's a specific one for it in #resources

[carmine lily]

thx

[pliant lantern]

/Mods/CustomKnight/SkinName/knight.png

[novel bronze]

ok lemme try that

[gloomy coral]

You also need to download the 1221 API which is also in #resources

ok yes the png is in the folder and i can see the png

[gloomy coral]

You have mod common downloaded?

[carmine lily]

this is in the folder with my mod installer

[gloomy coral]

Why would you add it there?

[pliant lantern]

Assembly shouldn't be in that folder though, unless 1221 is drastically different

[carmine lily]

i manually added with mod installer

leemme take prints

[gloomy coral]

Where is your game located

[gloomy coral]

You can't modinstaller doesn't work for 1221

[carmine lily]

oh

so how do i do it

[gloomy coral]

So you downloaded the 1432 API hence the black screen

watch first few mins of this video to get an idea how to download the mod.

[civic jewel]

Ok thanks

[sinful hemlock]

My modloader isn't opening at all, nothing happens when I press it

Modinstaller?

It mentions in the 5th pin that I need to put my installer exe in my desktop but I can't find it

it could be in your downloads folder

[drifting linden]

hi im playing on mac and i try to download a mod but when i run the game i see only a black screen can any help me?

[gloomy coral]

Which installer did you download

What mods did you install

What version of the game do you have

[fair briar]

So many questions

[drifting linden]

i have the last version of the game

[fair briar]

That is?

[drifting linden]

the mod i try to download is Custom knight

[fair briar]

Modcommon?

[graceful girder]

does anyone know why enemy randomizer isn't working?

[drifting linden]

download automatically

[graceful girder]

i downloaded it and it isn't doing anything but i can still see the settings menu and everything

it just doesn't randomize the enemies

[fair briar]

Click the big load enemy randomizer button on title screen

[graceful girder]

uhhhhh

it's not there

[fair briar]

You might have to restart the game

[graceful girder]

ok

[gloomy coral]

why not use the installer nvm I'm dumb and can't read

screenshot your mods folder

[fair briar]

No it downloaded automatically

1 does that lol

[graceful girder]

here's a button on the top left

i can't see the whole thing though

[fair briar]

Just click it

[graceful girder]

all i can see is ER]

[fair briar]

And wait

[graceful girder]

last time i clicked it my game started lagging to death

i'll try it again

[fair briar]

Thats normal

[gloomy coral]

that's what happens when a mod loads 150+ enemies

[graceful girder]

makes sense

it makes the title screen flash into different areas too

is that normal

[fair briar]

And you might want to turn on chaos mode

Yes

[graceful girder]

how long before it stops making my frames commit poison ivy salad

or is that just constant

[fair briar]

Wait

Have patience

[graceful girder]

ok

[fair briar]

Time depends on quality pc

[graceful girder]

can i turn on chaos mode now or is it too late

oh god my pc is really bad lmao

is there a way i can find out what these settings do because i can't open the readme files for some reason

oh it stopped dying that's cool

[fair briar]

Pins

[graceful girder]

thanks

[fair briar]

There is a readme thing made by mulhima

[graceful girder]

that helped a bunch

[limber egret]

Open the readme files in notepad

[tawdry grove]

what is serecore for?

[novel bronze]

how do i mod hollowknight

[gloomy coral]

It's a library mod like Vasi, SFCore and mod common

[gloomy coral]

?I would start by downloading the modinstaller from the link below

[dense shuttle]

Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages.

[novel bronze]

ok

its done

[tawdry grove]

oh i see. someone mentioned that it does something to the hall of gods bosses so that they're equivalent to their p5 versions, but i guess that's incorrect?

[abstract glen]

umm how do i get modding to work? when i open hollow knight i just get loading...

[gloomy coral]

That's not serecore. That's another mod named easier P5 Practice

[gloomy coral]

Wdym loading?

Like the save files?

[tawdry grove]

right, that's what i thought. thanks for the clarification :D

[abstract glen]

no it just opens hollowknight normally and then says loading when i try to play

[gloomy coral]

Check

[carmine lily]

i unninstalled and installed hk and debugmod
my menu is still glitched

i broke the debug mod hud in some way

i cant fix it

[gloomy coral]

Delete the file debugmod.global settings in the saves file location

[carmine lily]

help pls

[carmine lily]

lemme see

[gloomy coral]

Also try redownloading debug and close the menu by pressing f1

[carmine lily]

i already redownloaded it

these?

[gloomy coral]

Yee

Are you on cp or 1221?

[carmine lily]

1221

[gloomy coral]

Then how did you redownload it?

[carmine lily]

dowloaded from #resources then replaced on hk files

[gloomy coral]

What happens when you open the game now

[carmine lily]

nothing really happens

[gloomy coral]

Do you have any other mods?

[carmine lily]

nop

[gloomy coral]

Did you try this
#archived-modding-help message

[carmine lily]

but menu glitches

[carmine lily]

yea

[gloomy coral]

screenshot main menu

[carmine lily]

V

[abstract glen]

now i cant uninstall mods qmq

[gloomy coral]

delete the api, debug mod and the globalsettings file in the save folder (again) and replace the original asembly c-sharp.dll.

then run the game and see it it fixed

[carmine lily]

these is also this license file on the mods folder

[gloomy coral]

Go to steam -> right click hollow knight -> click on properties-> click on local files -> verify integrity

it doesnt matter

[carmine lily]

hey

everytime i close the game

a bunch of other mods files appear here

do u think that is what is causing it?

[gloomy coral]

thats normal

[carmine lily]

can i delete all of it

[gloomy coral]

when mods that makes these files run, if youu have it installed it will remake them if deleted

yea its just settings files

[carmine lily]

i dont

[gloomy coral]

it can be remade

[gloomy coral]

are you sure its deleted?

also did you replace the asembly c-sharp with the orginal one?

[carmine lily]

yes

[carmine lily]

i replaced the csharp wuth the mod api csharp

[gloomy coral]

re-replace it with the original

unmodded one

[carmine lily]

i didnt made a backup

[gloomy coral]

check pins

[gloomy coral]

#resources

[carmine lily]

ok

i dont see it on pinned

i only see the modded one

forget it

should i delete the debugmod.dll?

[gloomy coral]

Yes delete everything that modded

Including the global settings files

[gloomy coral]

[carmine lily]

?

[gloomy coral]

I asked you deleted before and you said yes

[carmine lily]

u said about the config files

[gloomy coral]

Ok now redownload debug mod and the api

[carmine lily]

the files keep coming back

:(

[carmine lily]

@gloomy coral everytime i open it the files come back

forget it, i fixed it

[abstract glen]

i am still getting the same errors

[gloomy coral]

try again

[wind quail]

all i have to do to play on vanilla again is to verify the game files and uninstall the mod app?

[abstract glen]

there doesnt seem to be a "Moddingapi.globalsettings" in my folder or naything like that :0 im still getting the issue too

[wheat orchid]

Are there any files with the name user?

Can someone help me with modded bosses. I have the mod installer app, and I want to fight Inferno King Grimm, but when I enable it, he doesn't show up in Godhome.

[gloomy coral]

Read the readme

[weary tangle]

how do u download mods

no?

ok

[fallow pilot]

Wow, you waited a whole minute for an answer. That is quite a level of patience. You could look at the pins or the topic of this channel for answers. That would be the first place I'd look. You install the Mod Installer which is linked both in the pins and in the channel topic and run it. That's the basic procedure.

[upper jetty]

Just open mod installer after you download it and it has a list of mods to install

[abstract glen]

how do i get the multiplayer mod to work :?

[fallow pilot]

That's also pinned, have you checked out the instructions noted there?

It's easier that way to prevent us needing to repeat the same things over and over.

[wide wind]

I don't know if this was anything I did, I doubt it, but my modinstaller isn't working right. I can install mods and everything, it's just that they don't work in game. It doesn't show that any mods are active in the top left of the main menu.
(I don't know if this a vague explanation...)

[carmine lily]

how do i shoot in hollow point

[fallow pilot]

Read hollow point readme, which explains everything you need to know.

As far as mods not being active, please ensure you installed and enabled the Modding API mod

[whole meadow]

Hello there o/
I'm starting speedrunning the game and i have an issue, so i though i could get some help here :3
I saw there is a mod installer that i used
I made a copy folder of the game to intall the mod for keeping a training and a running version.
Both version works well
Then i made a shortcut on steam to avoid switching folder names.

Then my issue : My controller is not recognised when i start the game with the "custom shortcut"

• I tried to enforce the controller with the steam options
• tried to start the game with big picture

Both of these does not work, and i did not found any intell while searching on the internet.
I'm using a Xbox One controller with the official wireless adapter from microsoft.

If someone does have a solution, i would be happy to hear it (or i'll just switch my folders which is the solution that works atm )

i'm not that sure the channel is the best one, but it seems to be the closest one with speedrunning

[fallow pilot]

It's a little outside the purview of this channel since the issue likely is not originated from modding but from some other factor. There is a #speedrunning channel, by the way.

[summer star]

What causes this symbol when I try to equip a charm?

screen just fades a bit with that symbol in middle and nothing happens

[pliant lantern]

Are you doing a Pantheon, or using a Binding mod?

[summer star]

I have binding yea

I wasn't really sure what it did

[pliant lantern]

Did you figure this out yet? If not, then post a pic of your Mods folder, a pic of your Mod Installer, and check to see if there's a "Mods" menu on your options in the main menu

Oh weird, when I clicked on pins when I first joined nothing showed up so I thought it was blank, I see them now

Thank you

[wide wind]

It's not showing up in modinstaller

[pliant lantern]

ModdingAPI isn't listed as a mod in the Zote Installer. It's toggled by "Enabled mods / Revert to unmodded" button

[pliant lantern]

Do this 👆

[lyric star]

Yo im thinking about making a custom character mod for the knight, but I honestly have no idea which sprites belong to which animation. I could of course just go in trial and error style, but I was wondering if there was maybe a template that shows the sprite groups

[modern meadow]

;i

[wide wind]

When you say "then post a pic of your Mods folder', do you mean a folder on the PC? And what should I take a picture of in modinstaller?

Here's the picture of the mods menu in Hollow Knight

[pliant lantern]

On your PC, there's a folder that all mods are put into. It's in the Hollow Knight folder, then data, managed, mods.

And for the installer, just a screenshot of it open is usually what is helpful (to check what it says), but I don't need that anymore.

I'm assuming you have Benchwarp: go into the pins and look for the Benchwarp fix

[limber egret]

You will want to download GoDump and Sprite Packer from the pins in #archived-modding-development . There's some guides on the pins also.

This will separate things into individual PNG files sorted by the animation they belong to in the order they are in the animation.

[sly lichen]

Whenever I try to disable a mod, it crashes the mod installer. Is there any way to fix this?

[crystal spindle]

anyone have old version of grimm knight reskin by mola?

Why an old version tho

[crystal spindle]

I have the new one, but the old is better

looks more cool

There are 2 different Grimm knight skins

One is found in the normal(I lack a better definition) skin drive, other(new) is twp’s skin drive

The one you linked is the Grimm Skin from TWP

The one in the video is another one

Find the Grimm Knight in that one, should be the one you search

[rose thicket]

Ive been trying to figure out how to have modinstaller redetect my hk game (i have looked in pins) and i cant figure it out. Im on mac btw

[crystal spindle]

I have that one "Grimm Knight (Made by Mola)" but its not like that video

[glacial furnace]

Well, this is the one from the video

It's the same Knight Model

[crystal spindle]

Yes, but have a lot of difference, like dash shadow isn't dark and red, only dark

[old prism]

So hi, I'm new here. Anyone have any idea on what could suddenly stop the modinstaller from putting the mods into the game? The installer seems to be working fine itself, and I can download mods, I even played a few sessions with stuff like Tribe of Battle and Blackmoth. But Opening the game now just gives me the regular unmodded version and I'm pretty stumped on solutions

[real jacinth]

Screenshot your installer

[old prism]

on it

Here's a shot

[real jacinth]

Okay. Now your title screen

[old prism]

Actually. It suddenly started showing the mods again

A few hours ago it would load in as though it was a normal untampered game

I really have no idea what changed that

[pliant lantern]

Check the pins

There's literally a Mac installer

[novel bronze]

Still having issues I colored all the sprites red as a quick test to see if it really was just the sprites I was editing but no apparently it won’t load at all

I noticed when selecting the default skin it goes black as if it’s really processing it while clicking on “hmm” does rather nothing

Any thoughts on what to do?

Maybe the way I set up the folder is incorrect ? It seems like I’ve done everything alright but maybe it’s the png itself ? If it is is there any way to fix this ?

[wheat orchid]

Did you actually click the skin name

[novel bronze]

I believe?

[wheat orchid]

All I see is default being clicked

[novel bronze]

I click on hmm as well?

[wheat orchid]

Yes

Default switches to the original knight

[novel bronze]

Yes I know that but I clicked hm and it still dosent work ?

[wheat orchid]

Screenshot the inside of the skin folder

[novel bronze]

This is the only thing inside

[wheat orchid]

That’s not right

It needs to be named Knight (if you have file extensions viewable, Knight.png, but you don’t)

Not SkinName.Knight

[novel bronze]

Ah so what do I do?

Ohh it’s working

Holy smokes tysm

[past stump]

I've gotten as far as this. I'm new to modding, where do I go to find mods to put on here?

what is the modding zip which is 40 mb used for?

[fair briar]

no, there is and install button

[gloomy coral]

Check the pins.

[gloomy coral]

So your controller isnt working?

[gloomy coral]

The modinstaller downloads mods. Custom knight is a mod and hence can be downloaded from modinstaller. But for custom knight to work the way you want it to, you need to download skins which can't be done in the installer

[lavish shard]

which mod was the gun mod?

[vernal rain]

hollow point

[lavish shard]

ah thx!

[twilit ibex]

Is there a way to see the seed of a random room save file after you have started it?

[fair briar]

seed?

you mean of rando?

[twilit ibex]

yes

it shows the seed at the top when you are making it but I can't find it after I start the playthrough

[fair briar]

lemme look

ok found it

press win+r and paste
&appdata&\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight

search for RandomizerTrackerLog.txt

there you'll find it

[gloomy coral]

its also in the save file

[twilit ibex]

Ok, thanks

[fair briar]

its easier to do my method xD

[twilit ibex]

I have the seed now, you will never hear from me again

I only joined to ask that question

[mental axle]

||This is about the fully upgraded grimmchild charm , I have two mods that might be doing it... grimmchild upgrade or charmoverhaul||

[fair briar]

you dont have to spoilermark

[mental axle]

oh

i still dont know how to use it

[fair briar]

i just looked at your convo in help

and its normal that grimmchild goes to 6 notches

bc its so op

if you want to upgrade it (customize):
press win+r and paste
&appdata&\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight

and look for a grimmchildupgrades.globalsettings

and edit the .json

[fair briar]

hmm

thats not the right one i think

it should just be in hollow knight

not in "old modlogs"

[azure needle]

oh!

ok, i think i found it?

[fair briar]

install itemchanger and serecore

if you dont have it yet

[azure needle]

i have serecore but i will do item changer now

yay! i believe that worked! thank you Ruttie!

[fair briar]

[weak bolt]

[fair briar]

[weak bolt]

[fair briar]

[weak bolt]

[leaden plume]

there is any mod that show the % i did from the game in a save?

[fair briar]

?

[leaden plume]

[real jacinth]

That's part of the base game

[fair briar]

check your inventory screen

[leaden plume]

[fair briar]

_ _

[leaden plume]

ok

and

[fair briar]

[ivory aurora]

And make sure you have World Sense

[real jacinth]

Get into black egg temple

And read the tablet by the bench

[leaden plume]

what is world sense

[fair briar]

if it shows on the save you have to have it?

[leaden plume]

i can see it after beating the final boss

[real jacinth]

World sense is the percentage completion thing

[clear wadi]

https://hollowknight.fandom.com/wiki/World_Sense

[real jacinth]

You collect it from the tablet in black egg temple

[leaden plume]

ah

thanks

i can do it now

i think im near 100%

[thorn latch]

where do we get the mod thing?

wait nvm im stoopid

[devout crater]

Also in addition to messing up my loading screen whenever I try to download the mod installer and reinstall it he doesn’t ask for my API go into mods and everything is already installed

[gloomy coral]

I don't get what you mean

For loading screenp problem look at the pins

[devout crater]

Well after I noticed it was messing up I try to delete them all installer and reinstall it from the website but after we installed it it didn’t ask for my source of my game it automatically download the API and when I went into the table to start installing the mods I noticed they were already installed so it’s like the mod already knows my game

Seems almost impossible to reset

And I don’t know which pins to look at for loading screen

[gloomy coral]

Do you want mods or not

[devout crater]

Yes I do it’s just I’m not a computer genius like the rest of you I need it noob charms

[pliant lantern]

If the mods are still in your mod folder, then they'll still be "installed". Whether or not you're playing Vanilla is decided by having the ModdingApi installed, which the installer automatically installs when you open it.

[devout crater]

Do you know where the pins are for the loading screen because I’ve looked down this entire channel and I can’t find them

[pliant lantern]

• Which loading screen?
• What specifically is wrong with it?
• What mods do you have installed? (Preferably, post a screenshot of your mods folder)

[devout crater]

Because my loading screen is weird it doesn’t even show the stream of text like it’s supposed to up in the left-hand corner and when I try to start the game all I see is loading where file should be ok

I’ll boot up my game hang on

[pliant lantern]

This is the pin you want: #archived-modding-help message

You'll want to do both the first fix in that post, and the Benchwarp fix

And if you downloaded the Discord mod, then you'll probably need to delete some other files too

[gloomy coral]

It was fixed

[pliant lantern]

Does the fix retroactively fix the problem though?

Like, if someone had the broken files, does the fix remove them?

[gloomy coral]

It's not a fix fix. The files that broke the API were removed from the installer

So it won't download them

[pliant lantern]

Wait. So then why say it was fixed lol
If someone already downloaded them, won't they still have the issue? :grubthink:

[gloomy coral]

Oh like that

Yea then it isn't fixed

[fair briar]

they have to have downloaded it before i updated it

or i did an oopsie

which is very much possible

[pliant lantern]

Yeah, but I'm sure that there are people who did, and haven't deleted those files yet.

[fair briar]

yeah

[fickle parrot]

does anyone know how to fix a bug where the mods won't show up on the top left corner

and wont work

[fair briar]

did you download DRPC?

[fickle parrot]

yeah

[pliant lantern]

Wow, speak of the devil

[fair briar]

i definatly fixed it

unless...

[fickle parrot]

but do you know how to fix the bug

[fair briar]

go to mods and delete some files

dwarfwoot can help

[fickle parrot]

alright

[novel bronze]

Does anyone know how to downpatch to 1.2.2.1 for mac?

[pliant lantern]

Does your fix remove the bad file? My understanding was that an incorrect file was downloaded- so if the fix downloads the correct one, but doesn't remove the bad one, then it's still an issue

[fair briar]

#speedrunning

[fair briar]

i dont know

i remove some files but im looking if the zip thats downloaded contains those files

if so there is no way to fix it from my side

then only kaangaming can do it

[gloomy coral]

It's not an incorrect file that was downloaded

[pliant lantern]

I'm actually about to leave for work
And I don't remember the files off-hand.

It's just any file with DRPC in the mods folder, right?

[fair briar]

yeah only the drpc file stays

[fickle parrot]

im confused now

i have 3 video files in my mods folder

[pliant lantern]

Do you know how to get to your mods folder?

[fickle parrot]

yeah

[pliant lantern]

I'm assuming so, based on that lol

[fickle parrot]

yeah

[gloomy coral]

Screenshot it

[fickle parrot]

the folder?

[pliant lantern]

The easiest thing is probably just to delete everything in it, then reinstall the mods you want.

Otherwise, look for any non-.dll files in it, and delete those, as well as any files that day DRPC.

Note: my method is overkill because I'm in a hurry

[fair briar]

mulhima can help

[gloomy coral]

No, your credit card

[fair briar]

and the problem are dll files

[fickle parrot]

sure-

[gloomy coral]

Yes

[fickle parrot]

alright

[fair briar]

?

mods folder

not appdata xD

[fickle parrot]

my stupidity will never be hidden

lol

welp here it is

[fair briar]

huh

i guess

[gloomy coral]

What's with your mods folder

[fickle parrot]

i dont know

[fair briar]

halfmod and nuke are redwing

same with halfmod.assets

[gloomy coral]

Delete the zip files they don't do anything

[fickle parrot]

alright

anything else i gotta do cuz i just checked and well nothing changed

[fair briar]

just try the benchwarp fix

its in pins

[fickle parrot]

alright thanks

[devout crater]

I can’t find the modding api

Folders how do I completely delete mod installer and re install it

[fickle parrot]

this might be a stupid question but does anyone know in witch folder Benchwarp.GlobalSettings is?

[fair briar]

[fickle parrot]

it still wont work

yey

[fair briar]

hmm

[fickle parrot]
