#

guys i need help this is my first time trying to mod the game, i want the QoL mod but it get me the message after it download, it only happens with thismod since i can install others no problem

pure yoke
#

it happened to me too

#

i just closed and reopened the mod installer

#

and it was there

dusky mulch
#

already tried even restarting the pc and trying to manually install, didn´t work

pure yoke
#

personally thats all i know, im new with mods too

real jacinth
#

then close and reopen the installer

#

if you deleted the zip, try installing vasi first

#

you could also go into your tmp folder and delete everything, then try again

fair briar
#

that's inside yourself

dusky mulch
#

thanks it worked by manuall yextracting vasi

real jacinth

bitter cypress
#

@dusky mulch happened to me once. i fixed it by restarting the app. pressing continue & waiting helps too sometimes

real burrow
#

when I try to install comes up with the error message and i get

dusky mulch
#

This happened to me when I was running a pirated version, then I got gog version and ran just fine

real burrow
#

I used the pinned link

#

should i take it from somewhere else

dusky mulch
#

Idk, for me at least it worked when I got gog version

#

What do the error says?

real burrow
#

ill get it back up

#

after I try update a mod

fair briar
#

?pins

subtle fjord
#

Is the gun mod supported?

real jacinth
#

supported?

subtle fjord
#

Is it one of the predownloaded mods on the list

real jacinth
#

yes

Anyone know how to use debug mode to get kingsoul? There's an option under the charms tab called "Kingsoul: 4" but I can't click on it because it's greyed out.

vernal rain
#

i think you need to give yourself all charms first, but i could be wrong

wispy valley
#

I'm in godseeker mode, so I have all charms

vernal rain
#

then it's possibly greyed out because of godseeker mode, i actually don't know

wispy valley
#

Oh, i think it's because I have voidheart... rip

wispy valley
#

To clarify my situation, I'm trying to do p5 with spells only using kingsoul, so since I need voidheart to enter p5 I was trying to get kingsoul while inside of p5, which wouldn't work with save file edits

wild vale
#

can someone help me install poorly translated mod for HK

novel bronze
#

well you can go to a save file editor and change the voidheart to kingsoul

#

ive done it before

gloomy coral
wild vale
#

ok thanks

pliant lantern
wispy valley
#

Where can you remove the charms? I don't see an option to do it

pliant lantern
#

I'm pretty sure it is part of removing everything?

#

I'm not on my pc to check right now though

#

Unless charms aren't part of that for some reason

wispy valley
#

Here's what's on my screen

#

***I got a save file sent to me with kingsoul and p5, solved.

stark spear
#

so does mod loader frequently break for anyone else and stop saving your changes in the UI until you uninstall and reinstall?

fair briar
#

if you know under which section it would be i can check

#

i cant find it in binds so i think it doesn't exist

pliant lantern
fair briar
#

well you can remove items by clicking on them again

#

default - no glow
1st click - glow
2nd click - no glow

pliant lantern
#

Yeah, but I'm pretty sure there's a bind for removing them all that I have set.

#

For some reason, I was just thinking that it removed charms too, without realizing that it was only items

fair briar
#

nope nothing

pliant lantern
stark spear
#

the one linked at the top of this channel do others even exist

pliant lantern
#

There are two different Mod Installers, yes. The Radiance Host one (zote icon), and Mod Installer 2 (in the pins).

I was confused because neither is "mod loader", which sounded like a different version that isn't community supported or something.

#

Also, what changes to the UI are you having issues with?

stark spear
#

oh is mod installer 2 better?

fair briar
#

no

#

yes

#

half

pliant lantern
#

Uh, it is better in some ways, but also has a major "flaw" in that it doesn't detect manually installed mods

fair briar
#

2 has dark ui

#

so i like it

#

i dont even use any modinstaller anymore, other then downloading mods

#

i have like every mod in existence in my disabled folder

pliant lantern
#

2 is pretty sleek imo. A little unintuitive, but you get used to it.
2 has mod descriptions built in, which is really nice.

I mostly use Zote Installer though, because I use a few mods that aren't on the installer, and like to disable and reenable then frequently

fair briar
#

yeah i do all that manually

pliant lantern
fair briar
#

mainly bc i am making my own mod and i cant use the installer to update it

stark spear
#

are there any mod explicitly non compatible with rando 3

fair briar
#

no?

pliant lantern
#

Lightbringer probably

fair briar
#

why?

stark spear
#

okay probably just my cursed UI then, deleting appdata now

pliant lantern
#

Logic won't account for the Lightbringer changes

fair briar
#

ah ok

pliant lantern
fair briar
#

moresaves?

pliant lantern
#

Like, you keep saying that, but ignoring the question lol

fair briar
#

me?

#

oh ok

stark spear
#

the whole bit where it doesn't function correctly ie uninstalls mods on it's own, doesn't save which ones are enabled/disabled or even uninstalled

fair briar
#

which installer

stark spear
#

the one linked at the top

pliant lantern
#

That's not a normal thing. It sounds like for some reason it doesn't have the proper read/write permissions.

Did you move the installer to your Desktop, and run as Administrator?

fair briar
stark spear
#

everything runs as admin, it worked before and every now and then this sorta thing happens

pliant lantern
#

Do you have any .zip files in your Mods folder?

stark spear
#

not anymore, deleted the whole thing trying a fresh install cause it normally fixes it but is annoying to do so i figured i'd ask if anyone else had this problem

pliant lantern
# stark spear the whole bit where it doesn't function correctly ie uninstalls mods on it's own...

Mod Installer literally just

  • downloads mod files
  • extracts them to the mods folder
  • any mods that you mark as disabled gets copy+pasted to the "disabled" folder, then deleted from the mods folder
  • enabling then does the same thing, but from disabled to mods
  • and mods that you uninstall just get deleted

So if something isn't working, it's because it can't affect that file. This is most commonly because of people leaving it in the Downloads folder, which Windows is very strict about, and prevents programs run out of it from working correctly.

Also, sometimes the installer doesn't uninstall a mod correctly if there was an issue with a mod, for reasons that I don't know, but at any rate, of you want to uninstall a mod, I would recommend just deleting the .dll yourself.

stark spear
#

ah it is still in the downloads folder, funny most things work fine from there

pliant lantern
stark spear
#

thanks for the help i know i'm not exactly detailed when i'm frustrated

small herald
#

hey, I made a save state, beat Mawlek, got cyclone slash (also have randomizer on). When I reloaded the save state I no longer had cyclone slash (expected) but after beating Mawlek again I didn't get an item. Is that weird? Is there a reason that happens?

brave dagger
#

I don't know the technical reason or if there is a fix, but if that happened to me, I would just give it to myself with DebugMod

small herald
#

I'm not familiar with debug mod yet, not sure how to do that. It's not a problem anyways, just practicing Mawlek. Was just curious

fair briar
#

Under items

slate fossil
#

what does the chaos mode mod even do?

modest wigeon
#

can i get mods if i downloaded it on the microsoft store?

slate fossil
#

you should be able to, you'll just have to route the installer to HK through the microsoft store path

modest wigeon
#

how do i do that?

slate fossil
#

I have it on steam

modest wigeon
#

damn

fair briar
slate fossil
#

like?

gloomy coral
slate fossil
#

yeah the readme is just "GLHF"

fair briar
slate fossil
#

can I get some kind of rundown as to what the mod does

#

besides "makes everything chaos"

fair briar
#

does it have a description?

slate fossil
#

that's all it has

fair briar
#

check pins for the readme doc that has descriptions

gloomy coral
#

i used dnspy and it only causes chaos

#

its readme is correct

#

if you use the mod you're gonna need the good luck

fair briar
#

what does it chaos-ify

gloomy coral
#

alot

fair briar
#

amazing

#

isn't it the same as rng

#

thats also chaos

gloomy coral
#

this is different type of chaos

fair briar
#

random explosion type of chaos?

slate fossil
# fair briar what does it chaos-ify

with my 5 minutes of experience with it, I can say that it has a timer that you cannot see, and when it goes off, a random effect that, you do not know what, happens

#

like, teleport every enemy in the room to you

#

super speed/slowness

fair briar
#

i need to use that some time

slate fossil
#

random health gain/loss

#

Y'know, the usual

#

also, I don't know if this is a mod thing, but when enemies drop geo, it is just invisible

#

oh

slate fossil
#

Is there any kind of way to make the chaos mod have like a log of what it does?

#

so I can at least know what is happening to me

lethal snow
#

uh

#

its not in there

#

the depot downloader

gloomy coral
gloomy coral
fair briar
#

just go

slate fossil
#

really? cause right now probably 30% of the things that have happened to me I've not noticed

lethal snow
#

I found the depot downloader in the hollow knight server before

fair briar
#

well not again

gloomy coral
#

So...

lethal snow
#

alright ill leave thens alone

#

Ill try to figure it by myself

gloomy coral
#

There's a dept downloader here

sonic spruce
#

Does anyone know if there's a mod that entirely prevents geo from spawning?

slate fossil
#

like removes the sprite? or removes the item from the games code

#

also

#

why?

sonic spruce
#

Stops enemies from dropping any, i mean. Entirely for cinematic purposes

fair briar
#

the sprite yes, the actual geo no

sonic spruce
#

since spriteless geo still makes geo pickup noises. Then again, i guess i could remove the audio files too

slate fossil
#

if you have the custom knight mod you can delete the geo jpgs

fair briar
#

just get customknight and swap skins a bunch in a big room with alot of enemy's

#

and wait for the invisible geo bug

real jacinth
#

Or just put a full transparent sheet for geo.png

sonic spruce
#

Now we play the waiting game *clickclickclickclickclick*

fair briar
sonic spruce
#

Well thank you all for the advice!

pallid isle
#

sorry i just wanted to ask, with the mod installer, whenever I delete it and reinstall it it seems to remember what it had, is there any way i can 100% wipe its memory?

trying to install poorly translated, this is showing up instead

fair briar
pallid isle
#

what does the mods folder look like?

#

I looked through the install path into the actual hollow knight folder but can't find any mod folder

#

nvm i found it in some random place

fair briar
#

To reset it see pins

#

i hope this works lol

#

BRUH how doesnt it work

fallow relic
#

When I try to revert to unmodded through the modinstaller, it tells me to validate integrity of game files and try again. But every time I do that it just reverts back to unmodded anyways, although it takes a while. How do I make the installer be able to revert back to unmodded?

this is the error to be precise

#

Hey, does anyone know of a glitch, where the saves are infinitely loading?

vocal echo
#

When I use mods my Game crashes and I don't know what to do bc I tried everything that I can think of

slate fossil
vocal echo
#

I have tried this but it didn't work

vocal echo
#

There is no music and I can't do anything

real jacinth
#

so it's not crashing

#

did you install hollowknightdrpc

pallid isle
#

my mod menu won't come up for the game despite resetting the installer and reinstalling hk

real jacinth
#

mod menu meaning....

pallid isle
#

when i push pause on hk and go into options theres no option to turn on or manage mods

real jacinth
#

well you reinstalled the game

#

so you probably have no mods

pallid isle
#

yes then i installed the mod installer

#

after resetting it and wiping everything

#

idk why this is being so weird i always have problems installing mods for games 😦

thin mortar
#

so lemme translate:
not possible to find file: C:/Program Files (x86)/Hollow Knight/Modding API.zip

#

w t f

#

also this is my friend's pc if you couldnt already tell

#

mine is normal

lilac pollen
#

my mods aren't working even though it says they are enabled

pallid isle
#

ok i think we might suffer from the same problem

#

is there a specific place the mods need to go in files and it's going to the wrong place?

real jacinth
lilac pollen
#

it was working until like 2 days ago

real jacinth
robust acorn
#

i cannnot deal nail damage in godseeker save file i think it is a mod but idk what mod pls help

real jacinth
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

showing what you have might be a good start

pallid isle
#

sorry its the same as before i sent you screenshots, don't worry i have another i'll send

lilac pollen
real jacinth
#

check the pins

#

there's a benchwarp fix

#

?pins

dense shuttleBOT
pallid isle
#

yeah for me there's no mods option for me

real jacinth
#

cool

#

show shit

pallid isle
#

sorry one sec

#

this is my install path idk if its wrong its inside the hk folder

#

so inside managed there's mods and inside mods there's the mod data, idk if this is the problem since nothing else seems to be at fault

real jacinth
#

this is not your installer and title screen

#

and looks like you don't have any api installed

#

but you've done so many things, I dunno what state things currently are in

pallid isle
#

i know

#

;-

#

;

#

;-;

thick star
#

just wondering.. can i like change the other of bosses in like pantheon 1.. like that grimm appears in it while he isnt in the first one.. i have seen you can change a lot in the user1.json file

pallid isle
#

would i have to reset my installer and my game perhaps to guarantee it works?

cunning gulch
#

Where are my debug config settings stored, like my keybinds for noclip, save states, etc

#

I borked my new installation but I made a new one and I want to copy over my old keybinds

real jacinth
real jacinth
#

or use omnes deorum. randomizes pantheons

thick star
#

Ah so you can't just go to a file and change the order

real jacinth
#

that error is not because of randomizer

#

go to your mods folder, and extract vasi.zip

#

then close and open the installer again

#

or you can delete everything in your tmp folder

dusk slate
#

where can i find this tmp folder please

real jacinth
#

on your computer

#

type %tmp% into win+r

dusk slate
#

you've been a great help thank you

pallid isle
#

alright ill try solve this finally

real jacinth
#

why are you cropping shit weird

#

show the whole installer

#

and that is options

#

not title screen

pallid isle
#

sorry it wasnt showing on my entire screen soz

#

was tryna play csgo at the same time so was rushing

#

i'm not sure if it's a problem of the mod installer actually interacting with the game because the installer seems to work fine it just doesn't give me any of the access to the mods within the game

real jacinth
#

you probably have 2 game installs

pallid isle
#

oh like 2 hollow knights?

real jacinth
#

no. 2 undertales

pallid isle
#

i think you might be right

#

oh?

#

what do you mean by 2 undertales?

real jacinth
#

i was being sarcastic

#

of course 2 hollow knights

pallid isle
#

sorry

#

i know im being a pain but im just really tired out from bashing my head against this problem for hours

real jacinth
#

you need to find where your actual install is

#

and then reset your installer

#

and read the paths that it's giving you when it's asking for game

#

they have to match exactly

pallid isle
#

okay so i have to find the fake hollow knight basically?

#

i'm not sure it'd be advisable to try canning all the hollow knight stuff on my computer to try it again

#

but i searched for hollow knight in all my pc files ant this happened

#

i have a feeling i should try deleting the ones that correspond with the older dates so the intstaller isn't confused but I'm not sure

real jacinth
#

you are launching your game through steam right?

#

right click the game. properties -> local files -> browse

#

that is your game

pallid isle
#

okay then ill do that

#

then delete the ones that don't match?

real jacinth
#

if you want

#

some of these are your saves

pallid isle
#

ah it isn't a problem i'll just do it all again i only bought this on pc recently

#

i got all the bosses on radiant difficulty but when i heard you could mod it i came back to the game on pc

abstract barn
#

i need help

real jacinth
#

cool. hope you get that figured out

pallid isle
#

thanks ill try my best

abstract barn
#

i cant open the mod thing

#

well i need to know how to like select the path

real jacinth
#

show what you're looking at

abstract barn
real jacinth
#

click the button

abstract barn
#

ok

real jacinth
#

the select where your game is

abstract barn
#

i did that

real jacinth
#

then you're all set

novel bronze
#

how do disable showhitboxes

abstract barn
#

it also just shows the word manually

cunning gulch
#

I recently screwed up my debug installation; I re-installed the updated debug mod and it has keybinds for persistent savestates but pressing them does nothing and in the console, it says Timeout (8s) reached

#

Anyone got any idea what's up there based on that?

abstract barn
pallid isle
#

okay this is a little weird im tryna figure whats going on here

#

i deleted absolutely everything i could find hollow knight related, mod installer related etc and reinstalled hk then the installer

#

now i can't locate hollow knight in the install path, when i browse the file in steam it gives me the location inside common steam files but when i go down that path through my file explorer it doesn't show up

cunning gulch
#

Is it a window with the "Select Folder" button?

#

If it is, just select the folder you know your exe is in

pallid isle
#

i try but it never accepts it

#

and the annoying thing is it pushes you back to rifling through each folder again which makes it easy to lose track of where you've been already

cunning gulch
#

What do you mean it doesn't accept it?

pallid isle
#

like it just says its the wrong file despite the fact it is the literal hollow knight file

#

i'm trying again to wipe everything i might have missed something

real jacinth
#

what are you selecting

#

exactly

pallid isle
#

let me get it up

#

This is what shows up when I go to hollow knight in steam and browse local files

#

and the path goes C:\Users\myname\Desktop\Steam Stuff\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight

#

but when i go down that path it just gives me this after common

#

it's weird because hollow knight is telling me that it's in the common section but it's not actually there

#

hold on let me try something

#

im praying this works idk if i can go on with this

#

YESSSSSS I FINALLY GOT IT WORKING WOOOOHOOOOOO

#

Thanks for bearing with me guys it turns out there was actually a second steam hiding away on my computer lol

versed blaze
#

how do you install the badly translated mod?

gloomy coral
versed blaze
#

thanks

#

by the way which mod installer do i install? I'm using windows

brave dagger
#

you can either use the one that is labeled as the windows installer, it the Radiance Installer in the pins. many windows users prefer the Radiance UI

versed blaze
#

thank you!

heady yacht
#

im new to modding

#

where do i start

gloomy coral
#

?I would start by downloading the modinstaller

dense shuttleBOT
heady yacht
#

k

#

it says select ur installation path

#

what do i do?

#

do i just put it here?

sterile urchin
#

I have a question, is there a mod that when u load a new file, it has everything unlocked, u have all abilities, all bosses completed, and overall just everything finished?

#

oh and btw the mod installer isint working

willow osprey
half void
vivid plank
#

i'm tryna use the multiplayer mod and no one's showing up in game, were connected to the same hamachi thingy and we've got the port and IP correct but no-one will show up

ivory void
#

i cant seem to install debug (on mac) can somone help me?

brave dagger
#

do you have the mod installer?

half dome
#

why is this happening?

#

if I click ok this happens

dense shuttleBOT
brave dagger
#

?pins should have a pin for that

half dome
brave dagger
#

no problem :) if it still isn't working, I or others may be able to help further, just lmk

half dome
#

yeah it isnt working

#

now I cant install any

#

all of the mods keep doing that error

brave dagger
half dome
#

I already did that

#

none of them work

brave dagger
#

you may have to delete the installer and reinstall

half dome
#

really?

brave dagger
#

did you already delete the mods folder and the %APPDATA% ?

half dome
#

yep

#

I've gone to %appdata% and then clicked here (here on "AppData")

#

gone to local

#

it's not here anymore

#

because I deleted it

#

Ok I did one thing and it started working again

brave dagger
#

it should be under local low

#

oh okay :)

half dome
#

I've gone to Hollow Knight's save files location

#

and deleted all mod related stuff

#

and it works again

#

Idk if it will work for all mods, because I was installing all the mods to enable and disable but somewhy that error appeared

#

to all the mods

#

yeah it wont work

#

this is strange, because some of them work but some of them not

brave dagger
#

do you know which ones do not work? Benchwarp and some others have some other things that can be done to fix them

half dome
#

ascii camera doesnt work

#

elderbug god

#

and all of the rest I think

#

this one worked

#

both worked

#

now ascii camera worked again (???)

#

this is so confusing man

#

now I cant disable them ??????????

#

I reoppened and it work

#

definetly more errors like this will happen

#

but probably I just need to reinstall and that things

#

so what I will do is like everytime I want to change a mod I will go to modinstaller normally and disable all others and enable the mod I want but if it doesnt work I will reinstall modinstaller

#

shouldnt be a problem

brave dagger
#

im sorry in not more help, I'm only working off of what I've seen.

reinstalling the mods & mod installer may help, but you may have an easier time manually installing the mods

half dome
brave dagger
#

you can also try asking for help if it continues, usually the better troubleshooters are on in a few hours or so

#

for help later*

half dome
#

I'll definetly do it

#

I most of the time can fix the problems alone but this time it just doesnt make sense

#

as you can see

brave dagger
#

yeah some of the HK spaghetti crossed over to the modding side

half dome
#

sorry, what does that mean? english is not my native language so some things I dont understand correctly

brave dagger
#

oh, team cherry has some weird code things going on, and so does modding hollow knight aswell

half dome
#

oh yeah, definetly

#

if the game isnt too well coded it will probably be hard to mod

#

I think

#

never modded a game

brave dagger
#

but the people that have been helping troubleshoot will probably be able to help you a lot more than me 😓

half dome
#

no problem man, dont worry

#

you already helped me to see the pin and it made me delete the modinstaller folders and files that were scattered through my pc

#

and without doing that I dont think I would be able to make this thing work again

#

even if poorly

#

because it seems that it's working again I guess

fickle parrot
#

do you have modcommon

velvet pagoda
#

i have the installer if thats what youre asking

fickle parrot
#

no

#

you need modcommon

#

its on the instaler

#

you cant run custom knight without it

#

just download it and it should work if you did everything correctly

velvet pagoda
#

ok

#

yeah its already on

fickle parrot
#

modinstaler 1 or 2?

#

question cuz i have an idea what could be wrong

velvet pagoda
#

i ddint know there were 2

fickle parrot
#

mac or windows?

velvet pagoda
#

windows

fickle parrot
#

then use 1

#

2 is a bit broken on windows

#

also

#

you have the word disabled next to the mods on modinstaler right?

velvet pagoda
#

no?

fickle parrot
#

velvet pagoda
fickle parrot
#

velvet pagoda
#

fickle parrot
#

velvet pagoda
#

fickle parrot
#

Okay, custom Knight is working

#

Did you download a new skin and put it in the correct place?

velvet pagoda
#

i think so

limber egret
#

Please screenshot, including the address bar, the inside of the folder with the skin images

velvet pagoda

#

You're gonna have to make that window a bit bigger for me. 😅

velvet pagoda
#

oki one sec

limber egret
#

Just the second one I need

velvet pagoda
#

like this?

limber egret
#

Did you put the skin here after starting Hollow Knight?

velvet pagoda
#

no i had the game closed when i did it then re opened it

limber egret
#

My only immediate suggestion is to restart hollow knight. This is all correct at the moment

velvet pagoda
#

just restarted it and its the same

limber egret
#

Try renaming the folder to just "demon" instead of "customknightdemon"

#

I'm grasping at straws there, though

velvet pagoda
#

ok

#

nope

#

im gonna try a different skin

Hello, I haven't played HK in a really long time,
I re-installed mod-installer because I has a really outdated version,
When opening the installer, it starts asking to update a bunch of out-dated mods (as you would expect),
when it got to updating rando 3, It gives this error

#

Oh sorry

pliant lantern
#

No need to be sorry- but a lot of common problems are there :)

fair briar
#

now that we got that command we want to use it

#

And it's less likely to break when I'm on mobile

#

Unlike emoji, which break all the time

hey I'm trying to get the multiplayer mod to work with my friend, I have the hosting mod and he has the client mod, I turned on logs and we are connected to the same vpn server but he's not visible

Does someone have a mod that prevents enemy spawns ?

I'm fairly certain that you can kill all enemies with debug.

#

I don't know how it works with the dirt crawlers though

vale cedar
#

Is it possible to have two installations of HK simultaneously, one modded and one vanilla?

fair briar
#

Yes

wheat orchid
#

Just need a text file in the extra one

#

Though I forget everything about it every time I need to think of it

pliant lantern
#

Yes it's possible. AFAIK there's only one saves folder though, so there's not a huge reason to if you're just on current patch.

If you're going back and forth a lot of may be worth the setup though.

wheat orchid
#

Mod to change saves folder?

fair briar
#

Follow the downpatch guide but use cp instead

wheat orchid
#

Fine I’ll make it at some point

wheat orchid
fair briar
#

Yes

wheat orchid
#

The text file I mentioned is explained in the guide tmk

fair briar
#

It covers the steam_appid thing so just use that

pliant lantern
wheat orchid
#

save management was probably what they said

#

Not changing the saves location, that requires a mod

pliant lantern
#

Ahhh. That makes sense

wheat orchid
#

I’m also making my own mod manager with save stuff, but I’ll refrain from doing everything hk manager would do

pliant lantern
#

A Mod Saves mod, to use instead of More Saves, would be amazing, now that you have me thinking about it.

wheat orchid
#

Mod Saves?

pliant lantern
#

Different saves, for when using mods

wheat orchid
#

Nah

#

Just a save location change mod

#

At default it will just store saves in the game files tho

pliant lantern
#

I mean, that's what I would use it for though lol

#

If mods are enabled, then the save location mod would be enabled, which would just the alternate path. It functionally would allow vanilla saves to stay in one path, and modded ones in the other. Like more saves, but better.

#

*I say like more saves, because I use pages 2+ for modded

wheat orchid
#

Well that’d just be the user doin that, I wouldn’t want to force mods on anyone

#

Specifically mods messing with saves

pliant lantern
#

If it's a mod that does it, isn't it kinda doing that by existing?

#

Or am I dumb braining?

wheat orchid
#

You said that it’s enabled by default when turning on the ModdingApi?

fair briar
#

Just force it in the api

wheat orchid
#

No

#

I already explained my opposition to this

#

Plus it makes more people come here saying my saves died

pliant lantern
wheat orchid
#

Toggling the api toggles all mods

pliant lantern
wheat orchid
#

Ok then

fair briar
#

Upgrade moresaves so that you have a seperate tab for modded saves, and fix the ui

wheat orchid
# wheat orchid No point in that

No point because why play vanilla saves when you have modded? It’s just another page of saves except this one is required to be there

#

Anyways I’ll work on better more saves this week

So I have been messing around with mods and I was trying to set a hazard respawn key bind in the debug mod. I accidentally set it to Mouse 0 and now if I try and do anything it keeps respawning me. Any advice on how I might fix this?

Probably by saying what's wrong with them? And possibly by reading through the pins pinknight

atomic plover
#

So what is modding HK like?

#

Is it like mario maker? By which I mean, is it just placing down pre-rendered objects on a screen?

pliant lantern
#

No

atomic plover
#

Can you choose the backgrounds?

#

Do you have to download modding tools from a different website?

pliant lantern
#

There is a mod that lets you do some basic level editing, but not from scratch. It lets you add objects to the existing world.
(That mod is DecoMaster)

atomic plover
#

Or do the modding tools come with HK if you download it off steam?

pliant lantern
#

There aren't "modding tools" exactly.
If you want to install existing mods, then use the Mod Installer

#

Creating new areas is a lot of work though, to my understanding.

I don’t want to make mods though. I want to make levels/areas with already existing objects

It's has to be mods -> custom knight -> [skin name]-> PNG files. There should be no folders in between

right click on hollow knight in steam and browse local files

you need to find the install folder

Mine is this:

Usually its ur C: drive -> Program Files x86 -> Steam -> Steamapps->Common

#

And in there you should find a Hollow Knight folder. Delete it and reinstall. If it's not there, you're good to reinstall.

what i have

yup. delete the hollow knight folder completely

Do you have the skin folder properly set up for it?

So you have to get rid of them

followed fireborn's tutorial

All skins should look like this:

And in the m SkinName part are just the .pngs

Yes, but "Zote" isn't the issue, right?

Is it all of them?

In that case, you're missing mod common

You're eventually going to run into issues with mods while using a pirated version, btw.

I would recommend keeping an eye here for a sale on the game: https://isthereanydeal.com/search/?q=hollow+knight (the website is currently down for maintenance it looks like, but I assume it'll be back in an hour).

You'll need to make sure you're using either the Steam or GoG version (Which a few shops give keys to. Just avoid the Microsoft Store version).

rose bough
pliant lantern

No? But the website I linked crawls all major vendors looking for sales, so that if there's an issue with cost, that you can at least save money.

You'll probably want to switch to the real version before playing too much modded, because otherwise you'll probably run into issues down-the-road that are more of a problem to fix.

Does anyone know why when I don't have modding api on no mods work but when I do have it on there's no title music, and all of my save files are wiped and it won't let me play or create a new one? But when I turn the api back off its fine.
