[willow girder]

But yeah, I got the same error again

[real jacinth]

open up the zip then

and take out the dll

[willow girder]

I did that, it didn't install randomizer and when I tried again it put the zip in there and never changed the one I put in

[real jacinth]

also, click the enable modding api button at the bottom

[willow girder]

oop

It didn't work again, is there a way I can just put the randomizer mod in manually?

[polar forge]

IS there a way to remove the green mod license thing that comest with the decorationsmaster mod? because i cant use the far right side of my screen

[brazen gorge]

does anyone know why this appears when I try to open modinstaller? This didn't pop up in the past, but has only started now.

[fair briar]

Go to saves and edit DecoMaster.Globalsettings.json

Idk if its called licence or eula, but make it true

[grand talon]

where is the exe file for launching the mod manager

is it the same as the installer?

[fair briar]

?

[polar forge]

where were the saves again?

[grand talon]

how launch mod manager

[fair briar]

Click the exe

[polar forge]

thanks bro it worked

[willow girder]

I got the randomizer mod working, but now I can't start a game

The saves are blank and I cant use any

It says Loading...

[real jacinth]

check pins

[willow girder]

I can't find anything specific to my problem. The save selection is blank, and when I go into the mod menu ingame it's blank as well, and you can't exit it without closing the game

[ruby linden]

The CustomKnight mod seems to have stopped working for me.....

All the skins and HUDs now look like this

Including Default Knight

[willow girder]

[real jacinth]

read the readme

[untold orbit]

how do i fix this problem? (i came to this discord server for one purpose, to install hollow point and i ran into this problem.)

[clear wadi]

ive been trying to godump oro+mato for a couple hours on and off.

UnityPlayer.dll caused an Access Violation (0xc0000005)
  in module UnityPlayer.dll at 0023:6a17e1fc.

Error occurred at 2021-04-24_171014.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\hollow_knight.exe, run by Egg.

0 MB physical memory [0 MB free].

0 MB user address space [312 MB free].
Write to location 00000000 caused an access violation.```
this is the error i've been getting. i've restarted my computer before every new attempt and ive made sure i dont open anything, including discord, other than hollow knight + file explorer for editing the GODump.GlobalSettings.json. i've only been selecting Mato and Oro Anim for my animationstodump. i havent been able to get the complete sprite files because it's been crashing. 
[#archived-modding-help message](/guild/283467363729408000/channel/462200562620825600/)
i searched 'godump crash' on this discord and saw this message, but it seems im still running out of ram even when i dont have anything else open. is there anything else i should do?

here are the mods i also have installed, if thatll help? next step might be uninstalling everything but godump + modapi + modcommon

[gloomy coral]

From the message you linked it said
"When running go Dump you can't do anything else."
So running only godump would have been what you should've been doing in the first place

[clear wadi]

alright, i interpreted it as 'you cant run other applications' and not 'you cant run any other mods'

will give it a go

[bleak socket]

how do i completely get rid of modding api?

[untold orbit]

Can someone help me fix this? (i have no idea where the installation folder is)

[gloomy coral]

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

[gloomy coral]

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

and then point the installer to that location

[untold orbit]

ill go check if that works, thanks man

[gloomy coral]

screenshot main menu without mods installed

[bleak socket]

i still have infinite jump...

even after turning it off with debug mod

[gloomy coral]

you need to redownload debug and turn it off from there

[bleak socket]

i did

and it was off

[gloomy coral]

where did you get the game from?

[bleak socket]

then steam reverted the game

[gloomy coral]

screenshot the debug screen

[untold orbit]

oh my god it worked

[bleak socket]

i turned it off again

i cant do it anymore

but when i validate game files it reverts back to having infinite jump

[clear wadi]

disabling other mods lead to more sprites being dumped before a crash than before, so that helped. thanks

[gloomy coral]

open this menu and ss

[gloomy coral]

ok so quit the game normally and verify integrity and open the game and see

[bleak socket]

ok it works ty

[untold orbit]

2 problems, the fatal error is from trying to run hollow knight, the other one is pinned i just dont know the steps. ( maybe going back to the files is how)

[calm canopy]

hey, can i use mod installer on a cracked version of Hollow Knight (i already bought the game on Xbox)

[west bane]

no

[gloomy coral]

the fatal error is from trying to run hollow knight
restart computer

[gloomy coral]

wdym dont know the steps

[untold orbit]

does it mean like, go to the files and search that? or go to steam files, local files and search it

[gloomy coral]

press win + r and paste %appdata%\..\Local

and then delete the folder it says to delete

[untold orbit]

what is win? (sorry, i have a spanish keyboard and i had no idea what win is in the first place)

[gloomy coral]

start key?

[subtle flare]

heyo i want to download mods how do i do that

[gloomy coral]

?i would do that by downloading the installer

[dense shuttle]

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

[untold orbit]

i dont think i can actually access that cause im on a windows 10 hp (meaning the on key is on the pc, not the keyboard)

[gloomy coral]

Try the key between ctrl and alt

[untold orbit]

oh..

im a dumbass-

[subtle flare]

ok i have the installer downloaded what do i do now?

[real jacinth]

use it

[subtle flare]

like i install a mod and thats it?

[untold orbit]

thanks, found it now.

[real jacinth]

yes

[subtle flare]

i dont have to like put it in my local file or anything?

[real jacinth]

put what

[subtle flare]

the installed mod

[real jacinth]

what do you think the installer does

[subtle flare]

ok

[real jacinth]

lol

[limber egret]

Move the installer out of downloads

[real jacinth]

it does it all for you

just click what you want

[limber egret]

To almost anywhere else in your computer

[subtle flare]

dang ok

[limber egret]

Then open it and just click the things you want to install and enable

[subtle flare]

ok then it will be in hollow knight when i run the game?

[limber egret]

Should be, yeah.

Make sure you read the readme files after you download the mods to make sure that you follow any setup instructions a mod might have.

Each one is different, so make sure you read the readme for each!

You might also notice that you will click a mod and it will download other mods. This is good.

[untold orbit]

ok, last 2 questions before i leave the server, can i install 2 mods at once? (ex: hollow point + healthbars)

and how do i open the ZIP file for hollow point?

[real jacinth]

yes.

and just click hollow point on the installer

[untold orbit]

wait, now its doing the fatal error thing again, so does that mean ill have to restart my computer if i want to play hollow knight again if i stop playing?

[tawdry path]

Is it possible to mod on a mac, and if so where is the instructions to do that?

[untold orbit]

check pinned messages for download details on stuff

[tawdry path]

Oh thanks so much

[dreamy crater]

so mods break my game how do i stop that from happening? even when i only have the modding api (i thats what its called)

[west bane]

are you using controller

[dreamy crater]

no

[west bane]

then youre gonna have to describe how it breaks the game

[dreamy crater]

no save files will load

[west bane]

check pins

[dreamy crater]

i did and i tried that

[west bane]

run the game, exit, screenshot the files you are deleting

[dreamy crater]

i havent deleted anything since i cant find files with a samiler name to what i saw in the pins

[west bane]

screenshot the saves folder

Hey im stuck on something with custom knight

because im on a mac i dont know where the HK data folder is

I know where the application is though

[tawdry path]

i've found the unity.TeamCherry.Hollow Knight folder, but I dont see custom knight there. I looked in pins and I couldn't find anything specific about where specific mod folders would be in that main folder

[tawdry path]

Where is contents for you because I dont see it under unity.TeamCherry. Sorry if its obvious im bad at this kind off stuff.

[real jacinth]

right click your game app

show contents

[tawdry path]

thanks found it

sorry for the trouble

its working thanks for the help

[willow lichen]

So for Custom Knight I downloaded the skins, and put them in the folder where Fireb0rn says to put them in his video, but when I go in the game, I can't see the options on the left. I'm on m1 mac and all the other mods work but this one doesn't for some reason. Any help would be appreciated

[real jacinth]

they're in the wrong folder, or you don't have the required mods and/or modcommon

[willow lichen]

Ok let me check

Thank you

[brazen agate]

aight

how does one install mods

[real jacinth]

installer

[slow timber]

Hey question about the multiworld rando. I set up a room with a bud of mine, but I don't think we're connected or something? It doesn't seem to be sending items to each other. We made sure we both displayed as ready at the file start before we started our files.

[pliant lantern]

Only 1 of you is supposed to press Start

If you both press start, it glitches

[slow timber]

ahhhh ok sweet thanks

so once I hit start it should just pull them in or something?

[cobalt night]

I cant install the mod installer

[limber egret]

Why not

[cobalt night]

I can download it but he dont installs then

idk why

[limber egret]

When you download it it's already installed. It's just an exe

Just open it

[cobalt night]

But it dont asks me where my hollow knight installation path is and things

[limber egret]

Ah, so you have a specific problem.

If you check the pinned messages, you can see information on various issues people have.

[cobalt night]

OKay I'll try

[limber egret]

As an additional one which isn't in the pins, move the file out of your downloads folder

You can put it on your desktop or something.

[cobalt night]

I worked, I forgot to do the installer on the desktop

thank you 😄

[keen ledge]

So when i try to open the mod installer, i get this error. The installer was working yesterday but it seems like it just stopped working. I already have some mods installed but i cant disable them or get new ones. How do i fix this issue?

[hallow pulsar]

how do i mod

and also what kind of mods are there?

[hallow pulsar]

on pc*

[silver yew]

trying to update auto splitter

[novel bronze]

Im not going to list up every mod here now, the best would probably to just look at the readme, thats in the pins. So, to get the mods, you need to either get modinstaller 1 or 2( if your on mac you need 2), the download link is also in the pins.

[hallow pulsar]

thank you

[novel bronze]

Np

[hallow pulsar]

what did you mean by installer 1 and installer 2?

is it just the windows linux and mac installers?

oh wait whats the difference between the .zips and the download link?

[novel bronze]

There are 2 mod installer versions in the pins, one is mod installer 1 and the other one is modinstaller 2, if your on mac, you need modinstaller 2, if your on Windows, use the first one

[novel bronze]

Im honestly not 100% sure

[gloomy coral]

The radiance.host modinstaller and the .zip file modinstaller do the same thing it just has a different UI

[violet galleon]

I cant get into soul sanctum in enemy randomizer because the soul guy wont spawn so how do I get into soul sanctum?

[fair briar]

Use no-clip

[violet galleon]

Oh ok thanks

[hallow pulsar]

so i downloaded the mod manager but when i try and drag it around my screen it moves much slower than my mouse

[dense zenith]

.

[topaz light]

so how do I go about setting up the game so that I can make a mod for it?

[keen ledge]

I forgot to mention that when i click continue, this comes up

[fair briar]

[topaz light]

I have just run the modinstaller, I assume it automatically replaced the original assemblycsharp?

[fair briar]

Ehm if you have use mods then you already have everything to make one

[novel bronze]

not to trivialise the rest of this video, but does anyone know where to get that customknight young hk mod with proportional horns in the clips shown at the last part of this video? it's hella good i want a customknight that doesn't squash pv's horns

pls ping if you have an answer, I'm going to sleep

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rq2vtgodGHo

[gloomy coral]

It's in the pins. Its called pure vessel

[fair briar]

It does not have a hud

Idk if thats in the vid

[gloomy coral]

Wdym?

[novel bronze]

also where to get the mod that shows all the hitboxes?

[novel bronze]

wait. I have that one and it squashes the horns

[fair briar]

Why would you want to drag it around, and if it only lags when you move it then just move it once and dont worry about it anymore

[gloomy coral]

https://radiance.host/apidocs

[gloomy coral]

?I would download it from the installer

[dense shuttle]

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

[gloomy coral]

It is what it is

[topaz light]

thanks a lot, I can already code with unity c# so im looking into making a mod for this game

[fair briar]

@novel bronze

This has more hitboxes

[novel bronze]

the one i want looks exactly like my pfp but the pure vessel one I have has a silver cloak and squashed horns, are we talking about the same thing?

[gloomy coral]

You could make a version where it doesn't squash the horns

[fair briar]

You cant

[novel bronze]

thanks

[fair briar]

There is limited space

YYou cant strech it out

[novel bronze]

the sprite is smaller but that's fine for the horns
a bit like how baby hornet works

[fair briar]

The skin cant be taller then the knight, so there are 2 options:

1. Make the body smaller
2. Make the horns smaller

[novel bronze]

what i meant is, it's been made already, it's literally in the video

[fair briar]

The one in the video is probably the private skin

[keen ledge]

How do you reset the installer?

[fair briar]

And is not obtainable unless you join TWP

[fair briar]

Its all there

[novel bronze]

what is twp?

yeah i'm referring to this

[fair briar]

Oh yeah

[novel bronze]

if i'm not blind it's a lot less squished and also the soul thing is different

[fair briar]

Thats absolutely the private skin

[novel bronze]

what is twp though and can i join it by any chance

[fair briar]

TWP is a group of people that make skins for hollow knight

[topaz light]

is there any way to see the current base code of the game so I can get a better understanding of how to mod certain things?

[fair briar]

Very hard to join from what i've heard

[novel bronze]

team white palace?

i'll look it up lmao

[fair briar]

Use DNspy on the Assembly.Csharp.dll and then go to #archived-modding-development

[novel bronze]

also ping me to reply i'm going off now

[fair briar]

Theres a drive with skins made by TWP in pins

[topaz light]

ok, what is DNspy and how do I use it

[fair briar]

Search for it on github, read the readme and pls go to #archived-modding-development

[topaz light]

sure

[placid leaf]

Go in file explorer, program files (x86 or another number idr), steam, steamapps, common, Hollow knight, hollow_knight_data, managed, and delete mods folder and re-install modinstaller.

[keen ledge]

Alright thank you

[placid leaf]

it worked for me

[fair briar]

But thats indeed a viable option

[hallow pulsar]

i dont knoiw how to explain it

[fair briar]

`

[hallow pulsar]

i do alot of the dragging because im opening alot of different folders for customknight

[novel bronze]

Why even have the modinstaller open while doing custom knight stuff?

[hallow pulsar]

i just installed it and i was looking at other mods too

[fair briar]

Use modinstaller 2 and you can just close it as 2 just pops up in like 3 sec

Or press the minimize button

[hallow pulsar]

that would be fine if i didnt like to keep anm eye on progress bars

[novel bronze]

It seems like youll just have to accept it then

[vale bolt]

Howdy, I'm trying to get savestates working but I can only seem to get quickslot save/load to work, not quickslot save/load to file or save/load new state to file. I'm on HK 1.2.2.1, and am using debug mod 1.4.0, not sure what other information y'all need to help but am ready to give it

[fair briar]

You have the debugmod for 1.2.2.1 right?

[vale bolt]

I downloaded the most recent one in resources posted by cerpin and installed that

[gloomy coral]

https://github.com/cerpintext/DebugMod/blob/1.2.2.1/README.md

[vale bolt]

yeah it's the 1.2.2.1 one

[vale bolt]

I have read this and failed to work my way to a solution

[slim radish]

i cant install mods on mod installer i can click it but it wont do anyhting

[fair briar]

Unless there are people here that have experience with 1.2.2.1 debug, we cant help you
You can try getting the older version posted by 56, otherwise :thkshadeidk:

Why emote no work

[vale bolt]

[fair briar]

Did you click the install button?

[slim radish]

yes

[fair briar]

Did something popup?

[slim radish]

no

[fair briar]

Which mod did you try?

[gloomy coral]

what have you done until now

[slim radish]

additional maps

[fair briar]

Try installing sfcore

Then try again

[slim radish]

sfcore is already installed so do i uninstall it?

[fair briar]

Hmm no

[gloomy coral]

screenshot this folder %APPDATA%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\Savestates-1221\

[slim radish]

i can click on other mods but not additional maps

[fair briar]

Wierd

Try closing the installer and trying again

[slim radish]

i cant click on hollowknightdrpc either

[vale bolt]

I have modding api 39, that's probably the issue. updating rn

[fair briar]

Dont

Drpc is a bit... broken

[slim radish]

why?

[fair briar]

Cus reasons

[slim radish]

ok

[fair briar]

Wow still not merged lol

Mulhima theres no exuse for work now as its sunday lol

[slim radish]

i closed modinstaller and opened it again and additional maps is already installed

[gloomy coral]

[fair briar]

And DRPC?

[slim radish]

not installed

[fair briar]

Ok nice

Then the problem is fixed

[slim radish]

thx

[fair briar]

If you click it and it does nothing just close and reopen the installer

[vale bolt]

that was it, all good now 👍

[shy cave]

what mod is this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pum1SmqEG68&t=917s

[fair briar]

Decorationmaster

[glass haven]

I've been wanting to try out the bingo mod, but I haven't figured out which mod i use to put the bingo card overlay. Is this not actually a thing and i just need to have another tab open to see it?

[glass haven]

hello?

[copper ether]

@glass haven I believe having it on overlay was just from OBS when you see it in recordings/streams. Those streamers still had to tab out of the game to interact with the bingo board. Otherwise, you do need it open in a separate tab.

[glass haven]

OK thanks!

[sinful hemlock]

what does it mean to "ctrl + f" focus cost?

[last zephyr]

Guys, please tell me what the Elderbug God mod adds?

[vernal rain]

[vernal rain]

hit the keys ctrl & f (this will bring up a search field somewhere), then just put in focusCost and you will see something highlighted

[gloomy coral]

how do you make poorly translated mod work? it shows this error message if I try to install it?

[restive barn]

61 dm's lmao

[gloomy coral]

Go to game files -> hollow_knight_Data -> managed -> mods and make this change

[hallow pulsar]

is there supposed to be a picture behind the text with the custom knight mod?

because i see the icon for it in the files but dont see the picture behidn the text

[desert grove]

if i want to change the sprite of a mask, where is the place to look ?

[dusk basin]

i dont have it named: translationmod, It is called "poorlytranslated"

[gloomy coral]

close enough

just make the .zip into .dll

[dusk basin]

still shows the error

[gloomy coral]

screenshot mods folder

where did you download itt from? the installer?

[dusk basin]

yes

[fair briar]

It was removed due to L a g

[desert grove]

any help will be appreciated! (mod newbie here)

[sleek cloak]

Question for you all, Why does the mods not work sometimes when I have implemented everything correctly?

[gloomy coral]

Screenshot main menu

[gloomy coral]

Which mods don't work and also Define
"I have implemented everything correctly"

[dusk basin]

it works now thanks

weird that it doesnt show as installed in the installer

[real jacinth]

Close and open the installer

[gloomy coral]

the link for the mod in the modlinks is a dll instead of a zip

[sleek cloak]

I followed the instructions to the letter, I use these mods:

[gloomy coral]

Screenshot main menu

[sleek cloak]

You mean the listing in the all tab?

I am confused, I'm still new to this

Oh you mean the game

[restive barn]

is there a noclip or invisible mod?

[sterile pilot]

yes, its the debug mod

i need help

modinstaller refuses to kaunch

[gloomy coral]

Go to the saves file location and delete everything that has global settings in its name

[sterile pilot]

and it keeps on making an "AU.exe" file

[real jacinth]

Check pins

[fiery crater]

I was using the timescale changer from debugmod, however it resets when i am hit, how do i disable that?

[real jacinth]

you don't

that's how the game runs

you'll have to use sanic mod if you want to permanently change timescale

[sterile pilot]

nvm the installer just worked

[sterile pilot]

the heck is that profile pic

[fiery crater]

ohh ,i made it myself using blender

[fiery crater]

Thx

How do i change the timescale, are there hotketys?

[fair briar]

You need to edit the Sanic.GlobalSettings.json located in the saves folder

[novel bronze]

so I got the menu music to work. at least. by resetting the thing in pins. but now this happens

that's the full screen.

[hot perch]

how do you cast spells in the hollow point mod? I might be really stupid here but i cant figure it out

[novel bronze]

I think you need adrenaline for spells

[hot perch]

ahh

ok

[west bane]

everything should be detailed in the readme

[onyx cliff]

Question, I've got the modinstaller page up and wanted to turn on the randomizer 3

However when I click the install button literally nothing happens

[west bane]

when did you get the modinstaller

[onyx cliff]

I downloaded a version today after my mods didn't function in the past

[west bane]

weird, try resetting the installer via the pins i would guess

[onyx cliff]

Oh

Ok

I literally just closed it and reopened

It*

[dry latch]

Hello! I'm having a problem. Everytime I try and install certain mods, it gives me this error? I can't find anything about this, haha! If someone could please help! Thank you so much!

[west bane]

old installer maybe?

?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]

oh nvm

just make sure all instances of the modinstaller are closed, and in task manager, and try again

[dry latch]

Alright!

I can't find any other copies of the app in task manager.

And it's still giving that same message.

I did close the original, and brought it back up.

[old vault]

i need help

with the hollow point mod

how do i shoot ?

[pliant lantern]

Read the ReadMe, like it told you to in the name

It's very important in that mod

[old vault]

oh im dumb sorry to disturb

[dry latch]

So, is there anything else I can try?

Sorry, am I being a bother?

[pliant lantern]

Restart your computer, and make sure that you don't have Anti-virus software that's blocking part of it

[dry latch]

Thank you!

I'l try that!

[green kelp]

everytime i hit respawn in debug mod my game locks and i have to kill it, what am i doing wrong? when can i hit respawn?

[west bane]

you probably bound something else to respawn and it's fucking with your game, follow the debug bindings reset instructions here #archived-modding-help message

[green kelp]

not using keyboard, so I ESC -> F1 to bring the UI -> click respawn with mouse, and then it locks

[west bane]

then you might have bound something to LMB

[green kelp]

i checked all 13 pages, nothing on LMB, am I supposed to be able to just hit respawn anytime in the game?

[west bane]

yes, you can hit it whenever, it just hazard respawns you

[novel bronze]

I seem to be having a minor large problem with hollowpoint called ||the gun just doesn't work||

[west bane]

did you check readme

[novel bronze]

3 times yes

[west bane]

is this on a new save

[novel bronze]

yes

[west bane]

you have to make a save without the mod then exit out enable hpoint then re-enter that save

[novel bronze]

i did some research and apparently it's a private skin and the author wants to make a challenge for it. but i've heard 0 word about the challenge... anyone knows about it?
time to get into chinese social media

[rocky pulsar]

its private for twp members oof

i dont think theres a challenge

speaking of twp, i might actually join twp and be one of the first person outside of china to join it

i need to make a qq account tho oof

[pine shard]

stuck on loading screen after entering howling cliffs nailmaster room

have item and enemy randomizer on

[dry latch]

Update on my situation. I can install most mods just fine, but a few—most notably; QoL—won't.

I did everything suggested.

[novel bronze]

it mentioned that the author wants a challenge for it

but honestly idk i've never heard anything about it

and how do you join twp

[pine shard]

should i just restart and not load enemy randomizer? last time this happened with false knight room and that worked
really frustrated that i would have to constantly take a couple minutes to reload the game twice and head back to a bench every single time a room wont load

seems like an issue that should really be fixed

[novel bronze]

also where do you get randomiser again

sorry i'm very bad at navigating all the mod folders

[river cove]

Help me please, who have enemy randomizer dll file for hk

[wide ether]

I have Modinstaller and mods installed but they aren't not working.

[river cove]

Where I can take enemy rando dll file?

[limber egret]

Download the mod installer from the pinned messages, then download enemy Randomiser from that installer

[river cove]

I cant find it uwu

only room rando

in modinst

[limber egret]

It's in alphabetical order

[river cove]

failed to load it says

[limber egret]

Download mod common and Vasi also

That should fix your problem

[river cove]

thx

[wide ether]

Where can I find skins?

[novel bronze]

hi can i download mods if i bought hk off of the xbox app?

[glacial furnace]

• I bought the game on Windows Store and want to play with mods.

• Unfortunately, the Windows Store has impossibly restricted file permissions to allow modding. Either buy the game on Steam/GoG, or dual boot with linux.

From Homothety's message in pins

[novel bronze]

hi where is the enemy randomiser mod and enemy healthbar mod? sorry for asking so much

[glacial furnace]

In ModInsatller afaik

[novel bronze]

oh dammit i forgot it existed that way

nevermind sorry

[river cove]

Whait, what is Vasi?

[glacial furnace]

That's a mod required to run other mods

[novel bronze]

ok thank you

[lilac pollen]

I think I softlocked my save accidentally with benchwarp mod

I set a bench up in the hallway to enter the coloseum

[river cove]

Where i can get Vasi?

I found smth, but not allowed to download

[lilac pollen]

I cant access pause menu or anything

[river cove]

ok I did it

but it still doesnt work

[lilac pollen]

Nvm i fixed it

[river cove]

Ok it works

thank you everyone

[tame sundial]

anyone have the installer link?

nvmd i see it at the top

[buoyant shadow]

uh

anyone know what this is

[real jacinth]

Looks like a failed to load message

[lyric eagle]

hey guys, I just recently bought hollow knight on pc, and I was a big fan of it back when I used to play on console. A friend of mine told me there was a gun mod, and I was wondering if anyone knew where to fnd it?

find*

[buoyant shadow]

get the modinstaller from radiance.host

called hollow point

[lyric eagle]

ah thank you so much

[buoyant shadow]

yeah, but how do i fix the load message

is it a problem with the mod itself or something else

(sending the file for reference)

[real jacinth]

You're probably missing dependencies

Looks like you're missing.... Modcommon, serecore, QoL, and vasi

[buoyant shadow]

weird, i thought it auto-installed those

when i installed rando

i got it working with those though, thanks

[willow girder]

I got everything working with modded, and played for a while. I came back today and the game acts unmodded. The mod menu in the settings is there, but nothing else is

I think it's that the mods themselves arent loading

[wheat orchid]

go to your save files path and delete all files with globalsettings in their name

[next kindle]

So I got the mod installer, pardon my dumbness but how/where do I actually get the mods?

I might have figured it out, need to check

[wheat orchid]

...from the installer

[next kindle]

Yeah I figured that out

the checkboxes in the installer weren't working the first time I opened it

but we're good now

[wheat orchid]

It has a built in list of about every mod in existence

[final girder]

I was trying to get debug mod to work. I'm running hollow knight via steam on linux. I downloaded the mod manager & ran it via wine (v6.6), located the hollow knight game files, and added debug mod. Everything seemed okay, but when I started the game it stopped recognizing my controller, although steam itself still seems to recognize it just fine. When I tried to revert the mod installation, it failed saying it couldn't locate the hollow knight game files. I tried manually selecting the path to the hollow knight files as before, but it still said it couldn't locate them & failed to revert. I was able to revert by having steam hash the game files & redownloading the changed ones, and now my controller works again, but this is somewhat unfortunate

[wheat orchid]

If the installer doesn’t revert you should do it through steam and not open the installer again until you want mods. With mods, you can try waiting on connecting your controller until the main menu or you can use a program like joytokey

[round nimbus]

My mod installer is broken. it was working fine and then now it is sending me a message when I tried to open it and it says: "Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately. Sequence contains no matching element"

[wheat orchid]

Look in the pins

[round nimbus]

oh, ok. thank you

[next kindle]

well that's cool, just beat PV with infinite notches

[gloomy coral]

Now try with charm binding

[next kindle]

hahahahaha

[round nimbus]

what if I have no idea how to reach the game files... like... I don't fully understand what it is telling me to do. sorry im stupid

[wheat orchid]

In steam right click the game

Click properties

[final girder]

I tried connecting my controller after the main menu showed up, but it still didn't work

[wheat orchid]

Click local files, then click browse

[wheat orchid]

*Disconnecting?

[final girder]

also, the main menu shows "mod api" and "debug mod 1.3.6" but the mods list is empty

[wheat orchid]

That’s normal

Only mods that can be toggled in game appear there

[round nimbus]

thank you again

[wheat orchid]

Np

[round nimbus]

It worked!

thank you so much

[final girder]

I tried removing debug mod & just running it with only the mod manager. It shows "modding api" on the menu, but not "debug mod", and the controller doesn't work

[wheat orchid]

The api sometimes just doesn’t work with some controllers

So a program like joytokey should help you

[final girder]

is there some reason the api has to have anything to do with the steam controller api?

[wheat orchid]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Tmk something to do with loading mods

[final girder]

is this the modding api src? https://github.com/HollowKnight-Modding/HollowKnight.Modding

[gloomy coral]

src?

[final girder]

the source code

and i'm pretty sure it is

[wheat orchid]

It is

But this is for the 1.5 beta

[gloomy coral]

@silver prawn Wdym it doesn't open up? How long did you wait? Did you spam click?

[silver prawn]

welp... what DID happen was I'd double click the exe... and then... ... ... nothing so I just turned everything on and off again, re-downloaded the mod installer and crossed my fingeez and now is gud

[gloomy coral]

Nice

Sometikes it can take a minute or 2 to load

[violet galleon]

When I start a game with hollow point mod I have the ak47 but when I press e I get a super bad shotgun that cant even damadge enemies and it looks like this were my soul meter is

don't know if this is the right channel

[fallow pilot]

I believe you were pointed to #modding-discussion for talking about skin development. So, no, not the right channel. You can also discuss this in #art-discussion, I believe.

[proven pivot]

hey, so me and my friend wanted to play steel soul together and when we connected we saw each other but not moving, we tried to disconnect and reconnect but isn't working.

i would reccomend looking at the readme doc for HKMP and downloading that, but if you want to keep using what you are currently using, check the pins for extra info

[runic peak]

Does anyone have the vasi mod, as in the mod manager doesnt allow me to download it.

[real jacinth]

Expand on "doesn't allow me to download it"

[runic peak]

this

[real jacinth]

Where is your installer exe

And have you tried pressing continue

[fair briar]

make sure your installer.exe is on desktop, run it as admin, click continue and close and re-open the modinstaller

[fallen ocean]

ok

[thorn merlin]

where do i install decoration master mod ?

[runic peak]

k

[fair briar]

check the readme doc for a download link

[thorn merlin]

modinstaller 2

oh nvm

in the pins ?

what do I do with the source zips ?

[fair briar]

source?

[thorn merlin]

HollowKnight.Decoration-0.40 folder

is it just the non-compressed version ?

[fair briar]

when you click download it gives you a zip, extract it and place the dll in the mods folder

[thorn merlin]

I think it is

so HollowKnight.Decoration-0.40 is the same thing, but before its .dll compression ?

[fair briar]

dont click on source code only on the .dll

[thorn merlin]

ok

yeah, there is the .cs and the .csproj

[runic peak]

oh nevermind fixed it, thanks for the support

[thorn merlin]

and where is the folder where I have to put the maps ?

[fair briar]

it will get generated in mods after the game was run once

[thorn merlin]

does it appears once I loaded the game ?

ok

[fallen ocean]

how do I use GOdump?

[fair briar]

read the readme

GODump not on the readme doc shat

imma add it rq

[willow lichen]

Modinstaller is telling me that my modding API is out of date. Why is this?

[fair briar]

update it

click the orange box

[willow lichen]

oh ok thank you

[fair briar]

i added it to the readme doc

[fallen ocean]

ok

[fallen ocean]

it doesn't explain how to use it

[fair briar]

it does

[fallen ocean]

where

can you send me a screenshot

[hallow pulsar]

I get this whenever i try and install poorly translated, it doesnt happen with any other mod, clicking continue doesnt do anything can anyone help

[haughty gazelle]

does anyone have the fool and pale king custom knight skins? i think they look neat but i suck too much at the game to do the challenges for them lol

[fair briar]

go to the mods folder and rename poorlytranslated.zip to poorlytranslated.dll

[hallow pulsar]

thank you

[fair briar]

as there were chalanges made, the owner wants those to be done.
if we were to give them then it would be against the makers will

[haughty gazelle]

damn aight

[hallow pulsar]

what challenges are these? and does it automatically add them the moment you do the challenge or do you need to message the owner?

[haughty gazelle]

the pale king one you have to do the path of pain p sure

and for the fool you gotta do the trial of the fool with a specific charm set

and then you record it for evidence and send it to the owner

it was in like a google doc

[fair briar]

you message TWP, or if there is a discord acount given, dm them

[haughty gazelle]

i cant find the google doc again rip

[fair briar]

its in pins

[haughty gazelle]

where? i cant find it in there

i can only find the public drive files

[hallow pulsar]

check fireborns video guide

its in the description of it

[haughty gazelle]

thanks

oh they made the pale king skin public

poggers

[hallow pulsar]

where did you find that?

[haughty gazelle]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[haughty gazelle]

the fool skin isnt as bad to get but like

i want the onigiri skin too but i suck at games :(

[hallow pulsar]

i believe in you :) go do it

[haughty gazelle]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

at least i dont gotta do both of them XD

also how do i message twp

[hallow pulsar]

on the google doc theres a discord tag

[haughty gazelle]

oh im blind

[pliant lantern]

If you have the video of you completing it, then you message Benji

If you want to message TWP, then you need a QQ(?) account. (Although there are a couple of TWP members that hang around here from time to time.)

[dry latch]

So, I want to install QoL, but the installer isn't wanting to. I asked yesterday, and no one could help me fix it, so I was wondering how I'd go about installing it manually instead?

I can't find anything on this topic.

[pliant lantern]

• Which installer are you using?
• What OS are you on?
• What do you mean "the installer isn't wanting to"?

[dry latch]

I'm using v8.7.1 mod manager by Gradow.

I'm not sure on the OS? Give me a moment.

[real jacinth]

make sure your installer.exe is on desktop, run it as admin, click continue and close and re-open the modinstaller

[hallow pulsar]

OS comes down to windows mac or linux

[dry latch]

Windows.

It installs most things just fine.

[real jacinth]

make sure your installer.exe is on desktop, run it as admin, click continue and close and re-open the modinstaller

[dry latch]

Didn't work.

[pliant lantern]

If it fails after running it as Admin, then post a screenshot of the error, and a screenshot of your Mods folder

[dry latch]

This is what's happening.

I tried uninstalling an reinstalling.

Both the mod manager, an HK itself.

I restarted the computer multiple times.

[pliant lantern]

You never need to reinstall HK for this stuff lol

[dry latch]

Good to know.

Either way, anything else I can try?

[real jacinth]

install vasi first

then install qol

see if that works

[dry latch]

It does the same thing if I try that.

[pliant lantern]

@fair briar Do you remember what caused the License issue?

[real jacinth]

go to your mods folder and screenshot it

[dry latch]

Okay.

[real jacinth]

you probably have a vasi.zip

extract the zip file. then close and open the installer

[dry latch]

It's there, but it's 0mb, and won't open.

Says it's either corrupt, or it's an unrecognized format.

[real jacinth]

delete it then

[dry latch]

Okay.

[real jacinth]

then re-open the installer as admin and try to install vasi

[dry latch]

Alright.

Yup, it opened now!

Just the dll?

[fair briar]

vasi causes it, not QoL (vasi gets autodownloaded)

idk why it happens

[real jacinth]

wdym

[dry latch]

Do I just extract the dll file, or everything?

[real jacinth]

you leave the dll

did you click install on the installer? And it gave you a zip again?

[dry latch]

I meant from the zip.

Yeah.

Sorry, should've been more clear.

[real jacinth]

yeah, you take the dll out of the zip then. and then close and open the installer

then it should say vasi is installed on the installer

[dry latch]

Alright.

Leave the other two then?

[real jacinth]

?

what other two

[dry latch]

The license and readme.

[real jacinth]

yeah. don't need those

[dry latch]

Alright.

[fair briar]

it could be avoided if the "LICENSE" file gets removed from the downloaded zip (idk why it was there in the first place)

[dry latch]

I'll see how that goes!

Thank you so much!

QoL is installed!

Thank you so much for your help!

[pliant lantern]

Note to future self: Cannot access License error from ModInstaller is caused by Vasi incorrectly being downloaded as a .zip and not properly extracting.

Solution: Look in Mods folder for Vasi.zip, the extract the .dll

[real jacinth]

it's probably two routines trying to extract it at the same time or something

I dunno

[pliant lantern]

Relatedly, I feel like "screenshot the mods folder" uncovers 90% of issues, yet it's the thing people are least likely to do when asked lol.

Every day I hope more and more that the Installers get an "open mods folder" button

[real jacinth]

and an "open saves" button

or a button for each mod that opens that mod's settings file

[hollow marsh]

ey how do i get the mod installer

Ooh, that'd be pretty neat.
Click the button and it just checks for the global settings, like how the ReadMe button works?

[real jacinth]

yeah. should be easy to implement since the location and file name is known

[pliant lantern]

Regular ModInstaller isn't in pins, fwiw

Can that be pinned instead?

[fair briar]

it is

[dry latch]

I just wanted to mention, I had the same problem with CustomKnight. The same solution worked.

[pliant lantern]

?

Am I blind? I don't see it

[fair briar]

incorrectly being downloaded as a .zip
??? it is supposed to be a .zip, its only not being extracted correctly

[hollow marsh]

thanks m8

[fair briar]

its pinned in #modding-discussion lol

[pliant lantern]

Yeah, I know what I wrote isn't literally correct. But it is more straight-forward, and will help me quickly find the message of I need to search for it.

[pliant lantern]

It's really odd that your stuff isn't extracting.
Are you running the Installer as Administrator, from the Desktop?

[dry latch]

Yup.

Now that I know what's happening, then it's not such a big deal, though.

Uh, is the customknight folder supposed to go in mods, or somewhere else, though?

Just want to be sure.

[real jacinth]

mods

[dry latch]

Thanks!

[pliant lantern]

When your run custom Knight, it should automatically make the folder btw

[real jacinth]

ooh

auto dinner

[pliant lantern]

Shhhh

[rugged socket]

I was using mods, then Hollow Knight uninstalled itself, and after I reinstalled it, all my mods were gone and my saves wont load. What can I do to fix this problem?

[short dew]

Someone please tell me how to fix this.

[real jacinth]

you're missing modcommon, serecore, and vasi

and moresaves might cause issues

[short dew]

So, those are dependencies?

[real jacinth]

yes

[short dew]

Okay, I'll enable those real quick.

[real jacinth]

general tip: if the installer downloads multiple things for a mod.... there's probably a reason why

[short dew]

Yeah, I kind of got that when I started mod ror2, but I never remember which mod needs which to function.

It worked, thanks a bunch.

[real jacinth]

[violet galleon]

When I start a game with hollow point mod I have the ak47 but when I press e I get a super bad shotgun that cant even damadge enemies. So how do I fix this?

[gloomy coral]

read the readme

[violet galleon]

But were in it

Because I cant find it

Oh I found it

[gloomy coral]

https://github.com/TTacco/Hollow-Point/blob/master/README.md#known-issues-extremely-important-to-read

[fair briar]

when embed

[violet galleon]

But how do I get the ak47 back

I dont want the Shotgun

[fair briar]

"This mod does not work a new save"

make a save without hollow point, enable hollow point, load the save

[violet galleon]

Oh ok

Thank you

[violet galleon]

YES IT WORKS

Thank you very much

[violet galleon]

And thanks to you

[fair briar]

next time read the readme propperly

[crystal temple]

Hey guys! For the past few days i'm having a weird glitch in my modded HK. Whenever I wanna use vengeful spirit only the animation on th eKnight appears, but no actual fireball is fired, no soul consumed either.. Any tips? (It costed my my last stellsoul run so thou it forced me to rely on desolate dive, it's still a bit annoying...)

[fair briar]

Do you have both/one of the multiplayer mods?

[crystal temple]

yes, I have both

But I have them for a while now, and it never was a problem

[pliant lantern]

Did you uninstall ModCommon

But leave the Multiplayer mod?

[gloomy coral]

Restarting game should fix the problem

[crystal temple]

No I have both ModCommon and Multi player mod installed

[gloomy coral]

Deleting game would also fix the problem

[pliant lantern]

(Either way, probably just don't leave Multiplayer enabled if you're not playing Multiplayer)

[crystal temple]

sometimes it does, but 10 minutes later it glitches again

[crystal temple]

indeed, no game, no problem, but also, no game 😦

[crystal temple]

okay good thinking

[fair briar]

Multiplayer mod messes with fireball physics, sometimes causing them to break

[pliant lantern]

((Also, there's a newer multiplayer mod called HKMP, that has significant less issues, and is actively releasing updates to remove other issues that are found))

[crystal temple]

good to know, I'll remove it then

and try the new one

[pliant lantern]

And messes with parries

[final girder]

I'm guessing this isn't the right place to discuss the core modding api? Is there a discord or other forum for that?

[gloomy coral]

#archived-modding-development ?

[fair briar]

If you arent playing with someone else you shouldnt leave any multiplayer mod on as it takes up alot of the pause menu, and thus blocking other mods ui

[pliant lantern]

I would shed a tear of joy if all mod authors would agree on a system that prevented this.

[vernal rain]

no

[fair briar]

You mean like debug, where you can hide the ui?

[vernal rain]

takes a button though

[fair briar]

You mean like.... weavercore?

[pliant lantern]

Yes, I do. Unless WC only works on the main menu. I still haven't tested it yet

[fair briar]

I still think its main menu only but havent rememberd to test it

[pliant lantern]

Who maintains WC? I wonder if they would be willing to make the button a little less intrusive, and make sure it is always in the pause menu. Maybe then more authors could be convinced to use it?

[fair briar]

Lemme look if i can find it

Nickc01

On github

[crystal temple]

thanks for the tips peeps

[tepid trail]

Yeah, I maintain the mod. I originally thought about having the menu in the pause menu, but decided against it for the time being because you could potentially change boss settings while you are in the boss arena and big jank could potentially ensue. I am also willing to move/change the “Weaver Mod Settings” button it it reduces conflict with other mods

[hot perch]

On one of my files I tried out the hollow point mod, but now even after turning it off in the options menu I still have a super fast focus like if the mod was on, but none of the other things like the gun or adrenaline menu or anything. Is there a fix for this or do I need to restart from scratch? I haven't backed up my saves so idk.

When you want the embed its not there

[hot perch]

which one of these is my save file? I'm in the hollow knight local files

[real jacinth]

userX.dat

X=save slot

[hot perch]

ok

[vital valley]

how do I use the Kakyoin Noriyaki skin in custom knight? other skins are fine but I'm confused at kakyoin one

[real jacinth]

make sure the file structure matches the others exactly

[vital valley]

uh, may you explain in simple forum? my brain is too small to comprehend with the situation

[real jacinth]

look at your skins that work

then look at the new one

are there any differences

[vital valley]

yes

[real jacinth]

structure should be:
Mods->customknight->[skin folder name]->[skin PNG files]

[vital valley]

but, I see files, but I don't know where the skin ITSELF is

ah

this is the skin

I already tried installing the compressed file

[real jacinth]

you have no PNGs in this spot

[vital valley]

ah

[real jacinth]

look at your other skin folders

[vital valley]

h

I know that they all have the PNGS but for my Kakyoin, I only see the HP Bar thing, is it a glitch or something

[real jacinth]

no

look in the other folders

like.... "install"

what's in there

[vital valley]

resources and sharedassets

[real jacinth]

so sounds like this isn't a customknight thing at all then

[vital valley]

I downloaded the kakyoin skin from team white palace drive

[real jacinth]

exactly

[vital valley]

oh ok

[real jacinth]

this will not work with customknight

[vital valley]

thank you

[real jacinth]

you are changing asset files themselves

[clear wadi]

i havent tried downloading this, but this is the installation instructions? it's not the usual customknight procedure

[real jacinth]

no. this is highly unusual

it'll work. but it's far more invasive to your game

and to go back to normal game files, you'll have to reinstall your game completely

[vital valley]

dang

like, re-reinstall or just, replace

[real jacinth]

you'll have to remove all the files you're replacing and put the vanilla ones back

[vital valley]

ah

[real jacinth]

which, looks like they have a pack of the vanilla files with this mod. but there's 3-4 ways to get the normal files back

[vital valley]

uh

ok thank you for letting me know that I have to replace everything

but that is too much work so I won't bother

[rocky slate]

Can someone tell me how to make decoration master work?

[wheat orchid]

Fireborn has a video on how to use it

[rocky slate]

I know but it won't work when I put it in my mods folder and start the game

[limber egret]

Did you follow all of his instructions or just put it in your mods folder?

[rocky slate]

I'll double check

Okay I just forgot to change the global settings on create mod to true

[sweet arch]

when ever i download modinstaller it says "hollow knight not found" what should i do?

[real jacinth]

find it

[sweet arch]

how

[wheat orchid]

does it have a button that says Locate Installation or something along those lines

[sweet arch]

it says "select your hollow knight installation path"

[wheat orchid]

ok

well click it

and select the folder containing your hollow knight exe file

also where did you purchase hollow knight

[sweet arch]

its only showing game files for a single game

[sweet arch]

steam

[wheat orchid]

did you change the installation path?

[sweet arch]

nope

[wheat orchid]

*in file explorer

[sweet arch]
