thanks for the help! :)

compact snow
#

how do i put more mods into the installer?

wheat orchid
#

why would you need to

#

it has pretty much every mod

#

any other mod is most likely out of date

compact snow
wheat orchid
#

...it has that

#

hollow point

compact snow
#

thx

slate fossil
#

once I have the custom trial files downloaded, where do I put them?

#

like what location do they go in?

runic pewter
#

anyone know why for the multiplayer mod only the clients can see the host moving and not vice versa?

real jacinth
#

either your connection is bad or you didn't follow the connection procedure

hidden frost
#

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

real jacinth
#

did you move it

hidden frost
#

nope

real jacinth
#

look in downloads then

hidden frost
#

ah i was confused by the mod installer and the mod installer installer

#

thanks

real jacinth
#

what

#

the installer is just a program

#

standalone program

#

what you downloaded doesn't install another installing program

hidden frost
#

yea i get it

slate fossil
#

dreamy crater

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

  1. one great hopper and a primal aspid
  2. 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?

final girder
#

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

pliant lantern
lyric eagle
#

ah, that's a feels bad, thanks for the response though

final girder
#

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

real jacinth
#

those are hazard spawns only

#

you're looking for savestate

final girder
#

i don't know what a hazard spawn is

pliant lantern
real jacinth
#

spikes

#

thorns

#

when you hit those

final girder
#

oh i get it

#

cool

real jacinth
#

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

final girder
#

right, but i don't see how to bind them

real jacinth
#

click the white circle

final girder
#

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,

  },```
#

1sec while i take another stab at clicking stuff

real jacinth
gloomy coral
final girder
#

@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

real jacinth
#

pause

#

pause game. click things

final girder
#

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

gloomy coral
#

You could make the UI better for us

final girder
#

i only have the dimmest idea of how this ui lib works

wheat panther
#

Does anyone have some kind of grid thing for how big the box is for re-skinning Knight? That would be very useful lol

vocal sedge
#

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?

gloomy coral
vocal sedge
#

darn, okay

#

...how do we fix our install?

gloomy coral
#

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

vocal sedge
#

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

#
[ERROR]:[API] - Error: System.Reflection.ReflectionTypeLoadException: The classes in the module cannot be loaded.

#

getting this from CustomKnight?

gloomy coral
vocal sedge
#

no

gloomy coral
#

custom knight is in 1221? grubthink

vocal sedge
#

....oh, does it not have a 1221 version?

#

guess that'd explain it

#

darn

gloomy coral
#

it technically does but there arent many skins for it

vocal sedge
#

i mean it's not loading

#

does that just mean the format is different in 1221

gloomy coral
#

yes

#

nothing from 1432 can be used in 1221

fickle parrot
#

weird question but is there a hunter custom knight skin?

gloomy coral
#

dreamy crater
#

gloomy coral
#

have you followed the pinned message on how to do it?

dreamy crater
#

yes

gloomy coral
#

so... what did you do

dreamy crater
#

it said to delete the mod installer folder and then reopen it

#

so i did that

gloomy coral
#

which modinstaller you using>

#

?

dreamy crater
#

the one with the zote picture?? idk

real jacinth
#

deleting the folder in appdata IS resetting it

dreamy crater
#

but it didnt get rid of the error thing

real jacinth
#

what error

dreamy crater
#

oh

novel bronze
#

How do I undo the changes made with Debug mode?

real jacinth
#

Use debug

#

unless it's the "give all charms" command

#

you'll have to save edit to manually remove all charms

wheat panther
real jacinth

I just installed custom Knight

brisk fjord
#

It doesnt work

#

I cant change it

for some reason

topaz fable
#

screenshot your skin folder

brisk fjord
#

idk

#

how to screenshot lol

topaz fable
#

can you screen share

brisk fjord
#

yes

clear wadi
#

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

topaz fable
#

Issue fixed, he was using a .zip file without extracting it

clear wadi
#

oop

stable mica
#

Which one of the pins is the mod loader?

fallow pilot
#

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

dense shuttleBOT
fallow pilot
#

There's your answer, though

stable mica
#

Oh, sorry there were multiple ones and i didnt want to install the wrong version

#

Thanks

fallow pilot
#

There is no wrong version unless you're on mac or linux

real jacinth
#

there is no wrong version unless you get one that's not for your OS

#

real jacinth
#

my mods don't work

#

meaning....

raven hound
#

it opens hollow knight without attempting to load mods in the first place

real jacinth
#

screenshot your installer

#

and title screen

raven hound
#

gimme a moment

real jacinth
#

is there a mods option in options

raven hound
#

yes but when i click on it it's empty

real jacinth
raven hound
#

did that but the mods section is still blank

real jacinth
#

so

#

does your text show up top left now?

raven hound
#

nope

real jacinth
#

did you close the game before doing this

raven hound
#

yes

real jacinth
#

did you do the benchwarp part I highlighted

real jacinth
#

screenshot your managed folder

raven hound
gloomy coral

is there a website to download some custom knight sprites or textures

real jacinth

?pins

dense shuttleBOT
gloomy coral
#

rip embeds

real jacinth
#

sadge

restive barn
#

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?

gloomy coral
#

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

restive barn
#

ty

real jacinth
#

or pause game, click default

real jacinth
brave dagger
#

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?

clear wadi
#

it looks like HK bought on GoG can be modded

#

pins have modinstaller

brave dagger
#

should I use the radiance.host or the Windows.zip?

real jacinth
#

Either. Your preference

#

Most windows users prefer the radiance one tho

#

Bc of the UI

restive barn
#

can someone give me the onikiri skin?

slate fossil
#

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

fair briar
#

Because the mod breaks when that file is not present

#

If you dont want the custom trial then disable/delete the mod

slate fossil
#

but it was not from any mod, it was just that trial file

fair briar
#

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.

slate fossil
#

what mod is needed

fair briar
#

The customtrial mod.

restive barn
#

and also what happened to onikiro mod

fair briar
#

If you mean the one with the chalenge, no nobody is gonna give it unless you complete the chalange

pliant lantern
restive barn
#

sure

slate fossil
restive barn
#

like the what the actual

fair briar
#

Yes

restive barn
#

fury of the fallen with p5

#

fair briar
#

Idk why it so hard

#

The fool skin is a bit easier

restive barn
#

onikiri is better

fair briar
#

Then good luck with 25min p5

glass haven
#

my small brain has forgotten how to install custom skins,

#

i think i just need a push and i'll remember

brave dagger
#

you have to unzip and then put them into the custon knight folder i think

glass haven
#

yeah, i forget where that custom knight folder is

fair briar
#

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

brave dagger
#

for me its under managed

pliant lantern
fair briar
#

Imma steal that for sure

brave dagger
#

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

fair briar
brave dagger
#

fair briar
#

Pins has stuff for benchwarp and the loading thing.

restive barn
#

i just realized

fair briar
#

Its in the same pin even pogtamer

brave dagger
#

yeah it says to delete benchwarp.globalsettings but I don't know where it is

fair briar
#

Well the same pin says it

restive barn
#

orkini skin is just void knight + scarlet crisis

easy ways to separate out the sprite sheets

otherwise you just use a graphic design program to make PNG files

how do i make a backup of the saves

precisely what files do i backup

brave dagger
#

okay I have the following mods: (Benchwarp, BingoUI, CustomKnight, DebugMod, ModCommon, PalletteSwapper, QoL, RandomiserMod3, SereCore, TransTrans, and Vasi) all as .dll files.
They are in Hollow_Knight>hollow_knight_data>Managed>Mods
When booting up HK, the Mods do not load in the upper left, and I'm not able to create a new save, and my mods section of the options tab is completely blank, but is there.

I have Windows System downloaded via GOG and have Radiance Installer

At any rate, you can try Benchwarp fix first, and see if that works

brave dagger

I bought the game today so I don't think it can be DRPC

pliant lantern
#

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

brave dagger

isn't that deleting benchwarp.globalsettings?

That and ModdingAPI.globalsettings

I don't care if you have windows 7 or 8 or 10

#

the steps are the same

brave dagger
#

@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

ashen palm
#

how do i get to zip folders?

brave dagger
#

the zipped folder for the skin is in the pinned chanell..

So if I download a second cosmetic mod will there be another bit of text that says custom knight in the pause menu?

yes there should be a menu of downloaded skins so you can switch in the pause menu

I was trying to delete to fix the saves screen stuck loading. I figured out though that my hidden files were turned off

twin hemlock

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

The one on the installer is

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

still elm
#

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

still elm
#

OK

thorn fjord
#

Only ModCommon and Custom Knight are installed

still elm
#

The right side is because I have Decoration Master Mod

still elm
#

mod's newest patch?

thorn fjord
#

I downloaded it yesterday so I'd guess so

still elm
#

Alright

#

I haven't use ModInstaller on windows so I am not too sure, but you probably can check the mod folder

gloomy coral
still elm
#

Ok

gloomy coral
thorn fjord
#

1.4.3.2

#

Uninstalling all mods does allow me to run the game but exiting to main menu crashes aswell

still elm
#

You probably want to reinstall the ModdingAPI

#

Cuz if you uninstall all the mods, the ModdingAPI is still there

#

go to saves and send modlog.txt

hidden olive
#

yeah i guess so

okay, ill just reinstall game

gloomy coral
#

how did that even happen tho

hidden olive
#

I HAVE NO IDEA BRO

deleting game won't destroy progress so dw

hidden olive
#

just press "Respawn boss" when in an area with a boss

misty trellis

where is the thing i dıwnload mods

probably in downloads

#

unless you moved it

oh found it

#

i... did something

real jacinth
#

you ignored an error

#

yes

misty trellis

what do i do

close it, open it, it gives an error, screenshot it and send it here

misty trellis
#

wait a sec

umbral stone
#

anyone know how to get custom skins

#

i followed fireborns vid but it doesnt work

real jacinth
#

you probably did a step wrong then

#

skins can be downloaded from pinned google drives

umbral stone
#

no i had the skins in game but couldnt equip them

#

my knight would flash white and be the same skin

fair briar
#

file structure wrong

#

customknight > skinname > png's

real jacinth
#

either that, or you don't have modcommon

somber token
#

Hello, I have an error when I try to install custom knight, can someone help me figure out what error it is?

misty trellis
#

this is the same error as mine shroompog

real jacinth
#

your error is the second paragraph

somber token
#

Ye idk what other process would be using that tho

fair briar
umbral stone
#

i do have modcommon

real jacinth
#

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

real jacinth
umbral stone
#

so i click on custom knight it tt akes me here

real jacinth
#

what other mods are you using

umbral stone
#

debug mod

#

enemy hp bar

#

hollow point

real jacinth
#

that's why

umbral stone
#

indie crossover

#

inferno grimm

real jacinth
#

hollow point overrides skins

misty trellis
#

is that the error part

umbral stone
#

no i had this problem even before hollow point

#

i got holllow point yesterday'

real jacinth
#

hollow point and lightbringer both override skins

umbral stone
#

anything else?

real jacinth
#

no

umbral stone
#

il try again without hollow point

misty trellis
real jacinth
#

learn to screenshot

#

and screenshot the whole error box

misty trellis
#

i cant make error box bigger

real jacinth
misty trellis
#

it doesnt let me

somber token
#

It's in downloads

real jacinth
somber token
#

Should it be somewhere else?

real jacinth
#

yes

#

desktop

#

downloads is not a real folder

somber token
#

Ok gotcha I'll try that then

real jacinth
#

try running as admin too

#

and check task manager just to ensure you don't have two instances of HK running by accident

misty trellis
real jacinth
#

also.... game must be closed

real jacinth
#

and check pins

#

?pins

dense shuttleBOT
somber token
#

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

real jacinth
#

is your game closed

somber token
#

Yea it's not open

real jacinth
#

try resetting your PC and trying again

somber token
#

Ok I still got the same error

#

Should I try reverting the game back to unmodded and trying again or something

real jacinth
#

do you have a mods folder in your game already?

#

and does this only happen for customknight? no errors for other mods right?

somber token
#

I was able to download howwow kynight with no problems

haughty quiver
#

Does the debug mod keybinds always default to the arrorow keys on a keyboard?

real jacinth
#

try a few others just to be sure. then send a screenshot of your customknight folder

haughty quiver
#

Weird

haughty quiver
real jacinth
#

none are defaulted to arrows

haughty quiver
#

My movement keys are arrows

real jacinth
#

so you changed them

#

yes

haughty quiver
#

And they defaulted to that

real jacinth
#

you probably clicked a white circle by accident

#

and set it to movement

somber token
#

It looks like it's in a zip file

haughty quiver
#

Hmm that's probably what happened

real jacinth
#

click a white circle then press what you want it bound to

real jacinth
#

then try the installer again

haughty quiver
#

Ok thanks it works now

#

ty

#

Those circles are really small and blurred for me

real jacinth
#

your game resolution is probably low then

#

debug menus look best at 1080 settings

haughty quiver
#

Nah it's set to my display res

haughty quiver
#

My display is 1366

real jacinth
#

so 768p

#

that is lower than 1080p

#

so makes sense

somber token
#

Uh well I definitely screwed something up

haughty quiver
fair briar
somber token
#

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

real jacinth
#

did you press continue

somber token
#

I pressed quit

real jacinth
#

try pressing continue for that one

somber token
#

OK now it looks like this

real jacinth
#

so this error showed up on installer launch?

somber token
#

Yea

real jacinth
#

not when installing customknight

somber token
#

Yes

real jacinth
#

check the pins

real jacinth
#

it was open before

somber token
#

Well actually the first time it did happen when installing custom knight

#

Afterwards I quit out

#

And then it happened again

real jacinth
#

do you get the error when you launch as admin

somber token
#

Yea I still do

real jacinth
#

k. reset your installer just to be sure

#

then try again

#

since you moved it, it might have some references messed up

fair briar
#

jep

#

no, but its an AutoUpdater

real jacinth
#

it's made by the installer

#

checks for installer version updates

somber token
#

Ok I was able to delete the folder and rerun modinstaller

real jacinth
#

any improvements?

somber token
#

Should I just try to install custom knight again?

real jacinth
#

yes

#

Is that a question?

#

how would I know

#

it's your pc

somber token
#

Welp it's still giving me this error

fair briar
#

just press continue

real jacinth
#

try continue for that one

somber token
#

Ok, I pressed continue, and the install button for custom knight is still active

real jacinth
#

might be a good idea to go to your tmp folder and clean it out

#

check the pins

somber token
#

Ok I'll go do that then

fair briar
#

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

somber token
#

Oh thank god it's working

#

Thank you so much mickely

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)

pliant lantern
south sentinel
#

yeah, the most recent one

pliant lantern
#

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
south sentinel
#

alright, I shall try them. thanks for helping!

pliant lantern
#

Also worth checking: are you on an old version of MacOs?

south sentinel
#

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"

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?

I have both installed and active, it recognizes other skins in the custom knight folder. I am on Windows 10

screenshot where you put it

#

and did you relaunch the game since putting it there?

and yes the game has been relaunched

Then there's no reason it shouldn't be there

#

especially if the other 3 are

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
