so you keep going until you get to HK
ooo
the game files path
i think i got it
Game Files: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\
or D:\
most likely
thanks for the help! :)
how do i put more mods into the installer?
why would you need to
it has pretty much every mod
any other mod is most likely out of date
gun
once I have the custom trial files downloaded, where do I put them?
like what location do they go in?
anyone know why for the multiplayer mod only the clients can see the host moving and not vice versa?
either your connection is bad or you didn't follow the connection procedure
I downloaded the modded installer and I know it is affecting hollow knight as I can see it in the top left but I cant find the mod manager anymore
it isnt showing on my pc
any ideas
did you move it
nope
look in downloads then
what
the installer is just a program
standalone program
what you downloaded doesn't install another installing program
yea i get it
where do I put the files for the custom maps/ trials
hwo do i fix this again?
it says "Reset your installer (instructions on how to do this are in another pinned message)" where is that one??

thank you
I am trying to do the trial of the absolute fool and for some reason there are only 2 waves of it
and they are super easy
- one great hopper and a primal aspid
- one obble and one of the sliding fluke things
Hey fella's, i have a question regarding the hollow-point mod, does anyone know if it works with custom knight as well? Or is that just wishful thinking?
so i just installed debug mod, but it's not clear how i'm supposed to configure quicksave/load. first, there's no entry for it in the mods list in the menu; is that expected?
quicksave/load appears to be unbound by default. and if i look at DebugMod.GlobalSettings.json i don't even see an entry for quicksave/load under binds
there's "set respawn" & "hazard respawn" which are bound to f6 & f7, but those don't appear to do quicksave/load
Hollow Point overrides Custom Knight
ah, that's a feels bad, thanks for the response though
in the json config, i see
"Hazard Respawn": 287,
"Set Respawn": 288,
i suppose i could try just changing those to "Quickload" and "Quicksave" respectively, but this seems like a way to waste a lot of time
i don't know what a hazard spawn is
F1 to show debug.
Click the little white dot next to each option you want to bind.
and respawn in the same room
you can set that
or cause it
save states are also in the mod
that's the quick save and load you want
right, but i don't see how to bind them
click the white circle
the full json config is:
"binds": {
"Toggle All UI": 282,
"Toggle Info": 283,
"Toggle Menu": 284,
"Toggle Console": 285,
"Force Pause": 286,
"Hazard Respawn": 287,
"Set Respawn": 288,
"Force Camera Follow": 289,
"Toggle Enemy Panel": 290,
"Self Damage": 291,
"Toggle Binds": 96,
"Nail Damage +4": 61,
"Nail Damage -4": 45,
"Increase Timescale": 270,
"Decrease Timescale": 269,
"Toggle Hero Light": 278,
"Toggle Vignette": 277,
"Zoom In": 280,
"Zoom Out": 281,
"Reset Camera Zoom": 279,
"Toggle HUD": 127,
"Hide Hero": 8
},```
1sec while i take another stab at clicking stuff
Screenshot the custom trial XML file you psated
@real jacinth yeah, i saw that, but i don't have a cursor (presumably i have to enable it in steam somehow), so i figured i was supposed to set it in a menu or something
ok, that's not terribly intuitive, but it works
also, i couldn't find any way to unbind the respawn things so as to use f6/7 for save/load, so i just deleted them from the json file, which worked
the ui isn't very intuitive; it doesn't like draw a border box around the element that you're trying to click on or whatever, and the only thing to click on is that tiny little button which looks like it could just be decoration
so i had tried clicking it with pause on, but since i clicked the wrong thing, i assumed pause was blocking input
well, i figured it out now, thanks bro
You could make the UI better for us
i only have the dimmest idea of how this ui lib works
Does anyone have some kind of grid thing for how big the box is for re-skinning Knight? That would be very useful lol
hi, we're getting this error, did we mess up our install somehow?
FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'UnityEngine.CoreModule, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies.
for context we're on 1.2.2.1 using the mod installer
the game just doesn't load, it stays on a gray screen eternally
do we need to like, not use the mod installer with a downpatched version?
do we need to like, not use the mod installer with a downpatched version?
yes you can't use modinstaller
download Modding API for 1221 and other mods specifically for 1221 from #resources
the gray screen is 1432 API messing up cuz your running 1221
ahh k
thanks!
okay the game's loading now but the mods aren't working, hmm
it says to check modlog.txt but we can't find that.
nvm found it

getting this from CustomKnight?
are you using mods from the modinstaller?
no
custom knight is in 1221? 
it technically does but there arent many skins for it
weird question but is there a hunter custom knight skin?
there's a moss knight skin which ig is close enough
Nope afaik
do you know the link to the download?
It should be all on the drives?
never heard of a moss knight skin
do you know in which drive it is cuz i cant seem to find it?
·
But probably in the non TWP drive?
alright ile try to find it again
its not in the drives for some reason
thank you so much
oh wow, that looks cool
what does a map requires to fonction with decoration master mod ?
I downloaded the mod, and put the map folder in it. with the global.json and the global.json.bak
why doesn't it works ?
is there something to do ingame
?
Screenshot main menu
wait do I have to...
have the .json files out of the folder Impossible any% ? like, directly in decorationmaster data ?
I gueess
There's should be no folders in the deco master data folder
ok
Put all jsons in decomasterdata directly
it worked
can someone help me with my debug mod it will not work
define debug mod it will not work
the charms and cheats tabs wont do anything
do you have Moresaves installed
yes i do
uninstall it
ok that works thanks
hey i still cant reset my mod installer
have you followed the pinned message on how to do it?
yes
so... what did you do
the one with the zote picture?? idk
deleting the folder in appdata IS resetting it
so I'm not sure what you mean when you say you can't reset it
but it didnt get rid of the error thing
what error
How do I undo the changes made with Debug mode?
Use debug
unless it's the "give all charms" command
you'll have to save edit to manually remove all charms
Idk if anyone does, but would be nice to at least know if it exists lol
godump and sprite packer exist
Alright Googles where that is
Hello
i need help
Pls?
I just installed custom Knight
and dowloaded a skin
and did everything what fireborn did
didn't i answer you in DMs ?
screenshot your skin folder
can you screen share
yes
if you’re on a windows computer, Windows Key + Shift + S to screenshot
otherwise it’d probably be worth learning how to screenshot on whatever you’re using. google’s cool. smile
Issue fixed, he was using a .zip file without extracting it
oop
Which one of the pins is the mod loader?
That implies you looked through the pins but didn't read any of them since it's like the first sentence of the appropriate pin. It's also in the room's topic.
?i
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages. 
There's your answer, though
Oh, sorry there were multiple ones and i didnt want to install the wrong version
Thanks
There is no wrong version unless you're on mac or linux
how do i get the seanprcore mod its neither on the modinstaller or on the google drive
It’s now serecore
my mods don't work i've tried uninstalling/validating game files reinstalling the mod installer but nothing fixes it the mods don't even load when i start up the game, and when i try to revert to unmodded in the api it said that it is unable to locate vanilla hollow knight
it opens hollow knight without attempting to load mods in the first place
is there a mods option in options
yes but when i click on it it's empty
did that but the mods section is still blank
nope
did you close the game before doing this
yes
the benchwarp
do the top section too
also, if you have the discord hpmc or whatever mod, uninstall that
did the top section deleted the discord thing still doesn't work
still doesn't work
they should have been generated again when you launched the game last time
launch your game again now
didn't change anything
screenshot your managed folder
Did you install modding api?
this?
where?
From the mods folder
why my modinstaller just open and then close :c?
which OS? which modinstaller
nothing changed
os? :o!
windows or mac?
windows
no. This is the installer.
then what is the api?
delete this too
then open your installer again
which modinstaller?
the moding api is installed now
Now open game
where?
where is your installer exe located
on the installer
hollow knight drcp wasn't installed to begin with
i think it was a bug or something, just restarted my pc and it's working now :o!
and the unityplayer.dll is deleted now
it shows text now but there is also an error
redownload it from the installer
the api again?

rip embeds
sadge
so if i installed the huds and knight skins in the game and i want to go back to the vanilla version so what i do?
Go to steam -> right click hollow knight -> click on properties-> click on local files -> verify integrity
ty
or pause game, click default
this will remove all mods from the game
I have HK on GOG(windows) and would like to add randomod and cosmetic mods. would somebody be able to walk me through it in DMs?
or is modding only possible with steam?
should I use the radiance.host or the Windows.zip?
Either. Your preference
Most windows users prefer the radiance one tho
Bc of the UI
can someone give me the onikiri skin?
I am having a problem with the custom trials, every time put them in the mod files and run the game it runs this wave sequence and even when I delete this file and run a different one this one just pops back up, I don't know what I'm doing wrong
even when I delete the file for this it comes back
Because the mod breaks when that file is not present
If you dont want the custom trial then disable/delete the mod
but it was not from any mod, it was just that trial file
To use that file you need a mod.
That mod makes sure there is a WaveSequence.xml present.
If that file is not present, it just generates a empty file.
To not have that file being generated, remove the mod.
If you want a new WaveSequence, just replace the file already present.
what mod is needed
The customtrial mod.
and also what happened to onikiro mod
If you mean the one with the chalenge, no nobody is gonna give it unless you complete the chalange
I just replied in #modding-discussion
sure
wow thanks I did not Know that, super helpful
like the what the actual
Yes
onikiri is better
Then good luck with 25min p5
my small brain has forgotten how to install custom skins,
i think i just need a push and i'll remember
you have to unzip and then put them into the custon knight folder i think
yeah, i forget where that custom knight folder is
Get the zip, go to the mods folder, put the zip in the customknight folder, extract it, make sure it is custom knight > skin name > png's
for me its under managed
Imma steal that for sure
i downloaded rando with the Radiance Installer, but the mods aren't loading in topleft, and the saves page says all saves are loading

Best addition
- Do you have DRPC
- Do you have benchwarp
i have benchwarp, but idk what DRPC is
Pins has stuff for benchwarp and the loading thing.
i just realized
Its in the same pin even 
yeah it says to delete benchwarp.globalsettings but I don't know where it is
Well the same pin says it
orkini skin is just void knight + scarlet crisis

???

Im really confused with mac lol
I'm as confused as you man
I'm not sure what "went through steam" means.
I'm starting to think that for some reason you were not going to the correct place to begin with
Went through steam prob means browse local files

Disable Enemy Randomizer, then Enable it again.
Then quit the game.
When you launch the game again, click the "randomize" button and enjoy the show for a few minutes.

Can you post a screenshot of your Mods folder?
Most likely, you need to do the Benchwarp fix in the pins :pinknight: , however if you used DRPC a few weeks ago, then you may need to delete some extra files.
At any rate, you can try Benchwarp fix first, and see if that works
Yeah, do Benchwarp fix in the pins
Well, both "loading" fix and Benchwarp fix
It's two files that can be the cause, and deleting both should work
isn't that deleting benchwarp.globalsettings?
I don't know where those files are..

@ashen palm if you are trying to get the grimm knight skin, you need to download custom knight in the pinned Google drive, and then download the zipped folder for grimm knight. you then unzip and put the file of jpegs into the custom knight folder, which should be located in your mods folder

Why do you wanna delete it?
I was trying to delete to fix the saves screen stuck loading. I figured out though that my hidden files were turned off
Recently had to delete everything and start from scratch with the installer bc I was having some issues with it breaking. Even though I've (re)installed the most current modinstaller, it's missing all the latest updates that were on my mods previous installation: grub jars, geo rocks, boss geo, grim kin flames, and in the top right hand, it showing all your recent pickups. Anyone smarter than me know why they suddenly aren't there?
Oh and totems are missing as an option
why is this happening :o?
shall try, thanks.
:c
guess i cant use mods xD
check pins
but why is that happening XD?
it says it's unable to locate game files, so it's probably happening cause it's unable to locate game files
but why?
beause it's unable to locate game files

Hi ! For the mod installer, what file do I have to choose ?
?i
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages. 
But I have to manually choose a file, which one do I tell the mod installer to take ?
Oh I'm so dumb, sorry for the question ^^
So I installed Custom Knight via the Mod Installer and downloaded a skin. Yesterday after 2 crashed it did work and I was able to play with the skinset. However now its not working anymore. It starts loading but when the bar is full it crashes. Trying to reopen states that there is another instance running, which isnt
Guys I just want to ask how to deal with the error 'custom knight: Fail to load! Check ModLog.txt' error
I am using custom knight 1.2.1
And I have a separate folder of skin in the Mod folder
which is called exactly CustomKnight
whcih mods do you have?
screenshot main menu
OK
Only ModCommon and Custom Knight are installed
The right side is because I have Decoration Master Mod
Are you using the game's newest patch? Are you using Mod
mod's newest patch?
I downloaded it yesterday so I'd guess so
Alright
I haven't use ModInstaller on windows so I am not too sure, but you probably can check the mod folder
download mod common
Ok
whcihh version of the game?
1.4.3.2
Uninstalling all mods does allow me to run the game but exiting to main menu crashes aswell
You probably want to reinstall the ModdingAPI
Cuz if you uninstall all the mods, the ModdingAPI is still there
ye ik

I did it, but it is still not working
This is my mods folder
There is still error says 'custom knight: Fail to load! Check ModLog.txt'
show full path
umm how?
oh
I get it
hollow_knight>contents>resources>Data>managed>mods
The path should not be a problem as other mods are working fine
(i think)
put the custom knight folder in this path
folder only
cuz it cant locate the game files
is it because i just reinstalled hollow knight onto my ssd?
reset the installer the instructions are in the pins
ty
yo sorry to be a pain but it has the mod info top left but it doesnt isnt there in game?
not all mods have this feature
if you dont want to use a mod that isn't toggleable you have to close the game and remove it
alright
yo, my mods after installing and enabling still don't work, i have already reset API but didnt work, do you have any suggestions what should i do?
open options and open mods option in there and screenshot
wait
nothings there
um
no, it says 'disable'
no way
screenshot your mods folder
well idk how to help
Go to steam -> right click hollow knight -> click on properties-> click on local files -> click on browse -> hollow_knight_Data -> managed -> Mods
i have my game on gog, but okay, wait a while
only "Disabled" folder is there
and its empty
redownload it from the installer
redownload enemy hp bar from installer
now screenshot the mods folder again
sure
literally same as there
oh
wait a while
ok so
i have actually 2 folders in my main game folder
its 'hollow knight' and 'hollow knight data'
but in 'hollow knight' folder three another 'hollow knight data'
and there i can see installed mod
what
is it alright...?
no
and thats what i thought xD
why is there a hollow knight folder in hollow knight folder
Can you screenshot these?
idk bro
ive already deleted hk folder in hk folder
so now it looks normally i guess
reset the installer and try again
Wdym
Just delete all the hollowknight folders and reinstall
Well I guess that was detected as your hk install instead of what you wanted to be...
how did that even happen tho
First delete the other hollowknight folder
What other one, they deleted one, so only one exists atm
yeah i did it, now im reinstalling
deleting game won't destroy progress so dw
?
i assume they mean they backed up the saves files
yeah thats what i meant
sorry for my eng if its terrible
okay, after reinstall everything works, thank u all guys for help, im really grateful!
#modding-discussion pins have 2 drives with skins
It respawns boss ghosts so you can only respawn the dream versions afaik
and now my modinstaller is gone
just press "Respawn boss" when in an area with a boss
where is the thing i dıwnload mods
what do i do
close it, open it, it gives an error, screenshot it and send it here
wait a sec

you probably did a step wrong then
skins can be downloaded from pinned google drives
no i had the skins in game but couldnt equip them
my knight would flash white and be the same skin
either that, or you don't have modcommon
Hello, I have an error when I try to install custom knight, can someone help me figure out what error it is?
this is the same error as mine 
your error is the second paragraph
Ye idk what other process would be using that tho
if you dont have modcommon then the menu on the left shouldn't be visible
i do have modcommon
from what many others have had, the menu is visible, but non-interactable without modcommon
I've never confirmed it with my own testing, but based on all of those people's help "tickets", that's what I've seen
then your files are in the wrong spot
what other mods are you using
that's why
hollow point overrides skins
is that the error part
hollow point and lightbringer both override skins
anything else?
no
il try again without hollow point
what do i do now
i cant make error box bigger
where is your installer exe located
it doesnt let me
It's in downloads
do you see how Specs screenshotted it
Should it be somewhere else?
Ok gotcha I'll try that then
try running as admin too
and check task manager just to ensure you don't have two instances of HK running by accident
also.... game must be closed
Check the pinned messages for more information - https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/187137504393035776/823796522751623168/unknown.png
Ok so I moved modinstaller.exe to my desktop, then ran it as admin, and it still gave me the same error
I also checked task manager to make sure it wasn't running multiple modinstallers
is your game closed
Yea it's not open
try resetting your PC and trying again
Ok I still got the same error
Should I try reverting the game back to unmodded and trying again or something
do you have a mods folder in your game already?
and does this only happen for customknight? no errors for other mods right?
I was able to download howwow kynight with no problems
Does the debug mod keybinds always default to the arrorow keys on a keyboard?
try a few others just to be sure. then send a screenshot of your customknight folder
no
you changed binds
Weird
Nop
none are defaulted to arrows
My movement keys are arrows
And they defaulted to that
It looks like it's in a zip file
Hmm that's probably what happened
click a white circle then press what you want it bound to
delete the dll and the zip of customknight
then try the installer again
Nah it's set to my display res
Uh well I definitely screwed something up
Ye uff
"continue"
I think I deleted the custom knight folders and then I uninstalled the mod on modinstaller
This is what my mods folder looks like now
did you press continue
I pressed quit
try pressing continue for that one
OK now it looks like this
so this error showed up on installer launch?
Yea
not when installing customknight
Yes
check the pins
Well actually the first time it did happen when installing custom knight
Afterwards I quit out
And then it happened again
do you get the error when you launch as admin
Yea I still do
k. reset your installer just to be sure
then try again
since you moved it, it might have some references messed up
Ok I was able to delete the folder and rerun modinstaller
any improvements?
Should I just try to install custom knight again?
Welp it's still giving me this error
just press continue
try continue for that one
Ok, I pressed continue, and the install button for custom knight is still active
Ok I'll go do that then
well the problem is that the pin that fixes it is not very clear
i mean, you cant really see that that pin is for that problem
@novel bronze
this is the one you need
If i open modinstaller, it just closes and says "modinstaller has stopped unexpectedly". Anyone any idea how i can fix this? (also i use mac)
Are you using the most recent Mac installer, that's in the pins? 
yeah, the most recent one
Tbh, I don't have a Mac, am unfamiliar with its filesystems, and haven't seen that issue with it here yet, so I'm honestly not sure what to try lol.
As a default go-to, it could be worth:
- restarting the computer
- deleting the installer and redownloading it
- extracting the .app file to the desktop
alright, I shall try them. thanks for helping!
Also worth checking: are you on an old version of MacOs?
Pretty sure I updated it last night, so probably its on the newest version
nop... I tried everything but it still says "modinstaller has stopped unexpectedly"
Try this put on desktop, right click and open package contents then open the application file named modinstaller
I have a question, I was recolouring a skin, its in its own folder in the custom knight folder, but when I open the game it doesnt list it under my available skins. How do I get it to recognize the new skin folder?
it works! tysm
do you have customknight and modcommon installed and active? what OS are you on?
I have both installed and active, it recognizes other skins in the custom knight folder. I am on Windows 10
and yes the game has been relaunched
ok I'll fiddle around a bit more. Are there certain sprite sheets that are required? Maybe I'm missing something?
it would show up in the list regardless
even if there's nothing in the folder, if the folder is here, and loads up the skin list. the empty folder will be in the list
thats weird then. Well, thanks anyways
Screenshot your mods folder
Does Mac attempt to run the .zip as an application?
i think it tries to run a different file from what its supposed to
Does your folder only have .png files in it?
its ruby knight, and yes
