soo when i install the mod is says succesful but i cant see the mod in the installer

#

what can i do about it

little mason
#

you can check the mods folder if it actually installed the mod

#

also if you download a mod that requires a different mod but you dont have it then it installs it without telling you

shut scaffold
#

there is no mods folder or something like that in games folders

gloomy coral
#

reset the installer the instructions are in the pins

little mason
#

that can be the problem

shut scaffold
#

ok

pliant lantern
tulip wave

shut scaffold
#

windows

bonjour, j'aurais besoin d'aide avec un problème que je ne comprend pas trop x))

#

j'avais déja installé mod installer aupravant et tout s'était bien passé, j'avais pu instaler des mods, m'amuser et tout ça

honest flax
#

habla ingles

wanton shadow
#

oh yeah sorry i forgot x))

#

well, the problem is that i doesn't have anymore the list of the mod in mod installer

honest flax
#

huh?

#

mods aren't displaying?

wanton shadow
#

i just have "manually button" and it's the only one i get

#

and a strange case were ia can type

honest flax
#

wait can you post a screenshot of some sort

wanton shadow
#

wen i try to type in more button appear but still no mod

honest flax
#

this could help

wanton shadow
#

that's the only two things i have

honest flax
#

check the message i replied to

wanton shadow
#

thanks !

honest flax
#

np

short knoll
#

i tried use modinstaller 2, but the game crashes

thick zodiac
#

hi! does anyone know how to port forward?

honest flax
thick zodiac
#

yes

honest flax
#

you can just use hamachi instead

thick zodiac
#

i cant

honest flax
#

limited amount of people, but more secure

#

why?

thick zodiac
#

i mean, i can but my friend cant xddddd

#

admin permissions

honest flax
#

that sucks, make them ask the admin instead

thick zodiac
#

but is there anyway to port forward?

honest flax
#

going through the router's settings of course. i can't really help you on this one because process varies on router models

drowsy isle
#

Hi! Is there a mod with all collectibles on map in Randomizer3?

honest flax
#

you mean the location of all collectibles?

drowsy isle
#

yeah

honest flax
#

there isn't, but you can check the Spoiler Log instead

thick zodiac
#

i have this:

fair briar
#

randomapmod

thick zodiac
#

but i dont know what to put on service

honest flax
thick zodiac
#

nor in the game

honest flax
#

that one

gloomy coral
honest flax
#

let me check my router settings real quick

fair briar
#

if port forwarding is done than use ipconfig in a command prompt to see your ip

honest flax
#

hmmmm. i don't know what's External host supposed to be

#

but Internal host, i think it should be your computer's Private IPv4

#

You can check it using ipconfig in Command Prompt, what ruttie told

#

it should be the one starting with 192.168

#

Also if you're the one hosting the server, you should have both MultiplayerServer and MultiplayerClient installed I think
Others should have only MultiplayerClient on

drowsy isle
thick zodiac
#

i can connnect, but my friend cant

honest flax
#

@fair briarDoes the RandoMapMod work with Room Randomizer and the such?

thick zodiac
#

idk why

honest flax
#

Also for the 3 bars on the top, you should set the top one to 127.0.0.1 (this points to your own computer). If anything doesn't work, make sure you let Hollow Knight through the firewall

thick zodiac
#

what

lone bison
#

When i try to install any mod with ModInstaller, it causes Hollow Knight to error out and not open up. When i remove the mods, it works fine. Any idea what I may be doing wrong?

honest flax
#

the 3 bars at the top, in-game ESC menu

thick zodiac
#

im in the server

#

but he can't join

honest flax
#

Oh this is the HKMP mod?

thick zodiac
#

yes

#

the other didnt help either

#

and this looked smother

honest flax
#

At bottom right should be the log where it displays who joined, etc

thick zodiac
#

yes

#

me

#

but he cant

honest flax
#

hmm

thick zodiac
fair briar
#

which ip are you using?

thick zodiac
#

he's trying to connect to my ip4

fair briar
#

ok

honest flax
#

My head is a little blurry on how exactly HKMP works-

#

Maybe I think the problem is with your router settings

fair briar
#

lets check if the port forwarding works

honest flax
#

Not too exactly sure

thick zodiac
#

i'd share but you know

honest flax
#

You know DMs exist

thick zodiac
#

wanna dm?

#

i can show this

fair briar
#

let your friend type ping "your ip" in cmd

honest flax
#

Actually put in your Public IP

short knoll
#

what is the required version of the game to work the modinstaller

#

or work in all versions

honest flax
#

Only current patch sadly, I think-

thick zodiac
honest flax
#

Make sure it's your public ip

#

Not the private ip (the one that starts with 192.168)

thick zodiac
#

which is my public ip

lone bison
honest flax
honest flax
#

Though it doesn't have the snippets.

lone bison
#

fair enough

honest flax
thick zodiac
#

does he have to connect to my public ip¿

honest flax
thick zodiac
#

but in the port what do i have to put

honest flax
#

Keep it the same

#

I thi-

#

Make it 26950

fair briar
#

all the ips have to be the same, the port doesnt really matter

#

the port does have to be the same tho

honest flax
#

The port and IP has to be the same for everyone

thick zodiac
#

he has this

#

translated is all lost

honest flax
#

What does enviados mean?

thick zodiac
#

send

#

sent

honest flax
#

perdidos?

fair briar
#

so, port forwarding is broken

honest flax
#

It exactly isn't

thick zodiac
#

perdidos = lsot

#

lost

fair briar
honest flax
#

Oh your port forwarding doesn't work zote

#

The issue is with your port forwarding

thick zodiac
#

are you from europe?

honest flax
#

why the question?

thick zodiac
#

to try

honest flax
#

I mean it shouldn't matter but yes

thick zodiac
#

ok

honest flax
#

Partly zote

fair briar
#

ohgod that is gonna go well

paper salmon
#

hey so I've downloaded ModInstaller2 and have it integrated in the game, and I've read the ReadMe for the debug mod but the additional API link is giving a 404 message

#

how else can I download the debug mod?

short knoll
#

the modinstaller 2 works, i update the game to 1.4.3.2

fair briar
#
  1. download debugmod
  2. done
  3. amazing someone reads the readme!
#

the api was downloaded by the modinstaller

paper salmon
#

oh alright, so how do I apply it? in the installer it has the list, but "enabled" and "installed" are uncheckable and there doesn't seem to be anything else to interact with

#

I know the mod installer is active ingame since I can see the mod menu, but none of them are accessible

fair briar
#

click on the box next to the words

paper salmon
#

it won't let me click on them

fair briar
#

not?

paper salmon
#

OH WAIT IM DUMB I WAS TRYING TO CLICK ENABLED

only 2 numbers ahead hollowcry

vernal rain
#

i actually thought it would be more different

wheat orchid
#

Why specifically that though

#

I’d think it would’ve been more different or exactly the same

thick zodiac
#

the hollow point doesnt work

#

i mean the gun doesnt fire

fallow pilot
#

Read the mod's README, it should help.

thick zodiac
#

it doesnt have a readme

fallow pilot
#

There is a link to the README collection in the hollowpins just as FYI for future.

thick zodiac
#

ok

#

i had already read it

#

i mean

#

i read it before

#

but it doesnt explain why it doesnt fire

fallow pilot
#

Did you use it an existing save or a new file?

thick zodiac
#

existing

fallow pilot
#

I'm tapped. I don't play with hollow point so that's all I got ¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

I'm assuming you have ModCommon installed as well

Did randomizer mod get updated? Fireb0rn did a stream today and he had some new randomization options

#

how do you heal in the hollow point mod

fallow pilot
#

I wonder why READMEs are named README

#

I suggest you check it out, it's literally begging to be read

#

Link is above

i did, i couldnt find it

New healing/spell resource: ADRENALINE. Consume ADRENALINE to allow you to use powerful skills. Filling your ADRENALINE completely gives you class specific buffs to help you cover their weakness.

gloomy coral

Help

autumn root
#

i keep getting this error coming up

#

anyone know what to do?

limber egret
#

Firstly; you can delete the second and third version of the mod installer, you only need the one

#

Secondly; this looks like a Mac issue. I can't quite make out what the text at the bottom says, but if there is no way to just continue, you'll need to change some kind of firewall settings. You could also try moving mod installer out of your downloads folder, and potentially running as admin, or whatever the Mac equivalent is.

gloomy coral
# autumn root

Go to settings and allow the setting for opening app from other developers

#

It's somewhere in security and privacy

autumn root

thanks!!

#

Where can I download the SereCore.dll? I thought I already had it but the newest randomizer mod is showing error

gloomy coral
#

Modinstaller

hot mauve

It doesnt open

gloomy coral
#

Which os?

hot mauve
#

Windows 10

gloomy coral
#

Which one did you download?

#

The one in the pins or the one with the zote head from radiance.host

lone bison
limber egret
#

Verifying integrity of game files Doesn't change your mods. You would have to reset the installer, which you can find out how to do in the pins

hot mauve
#

Oh wait a sec

#

Oh im dumb

#

I didnt read the "The installer needs to be in the desktop" line

lone bison
#

This is what i see after a reseting everything. Are there any dependent mods i should be checking off beforehand

gloomy coral
#

Click on the orange button to update the api

#

Did you download any mods before the crashing?

lone bison
#

If i go to open the game with JUST the modding API, there is no crash.
If i download any mod after that (tried just 1 at a time) a crash happens

hot mauve
#

Uh... I dont remember the mod installer being like this...

#

fixed it

novel bronze
#

how tf di dyou fix that

#

i click on knight but my character just flashes and does nothing

pliant lantern
# quartz panther yo fam custom knight does not work

Custom Knight definitely does work lol

Your either did something wrong (either forgot ModCommon, or didn't set up the folders correctly), or you're using another mod that's incompatible (such as Hollow Point or Lightbringer)

quartz panther
#

hmm

#

i can look

#

i have mod common

novel bronze
#

how do i open the thing with like mods in it

#

i downloaded the mod changer but idk what to click to open it

pliant lantern
#

It isn't a program installer that you downloaded. It is the program itself.

#

Just make sure that you got it from here, and not a random website

#

?i

and into propertys

pliant lantern
novel bronze
#

damn it

#

okay

pliant lantern
#

You can move it to somewhere else. It's usually recommended to put it on your desktop

novel jewel
#

do i need to keep the mod installer app running while i play hollowknight for the mods to take effect? or as long as theyre enabled i can close it before i launch the game?

novel jewel
#

thank you

woven epoch
#

No prob :D

novel jewel
#

another question about the QoL mod, as long as i download and "enable" thru the mod installer, i shouldnt have to do any of the manual steps it kinda speaks of in the "readme" and is the QoL mod even worth it? i appriciate the info you guys are giving me btw, this community is really friendly and good hearted. thanks again guys

And why does literally no one help me

why does my game crash when i have custom knight, benchwarp and debug mod?

Hmmmmmm

Maybe your pc sucks

But mine does and I have all 3

hoary rose
#

woven epoch
#

Hmmmm

Does your game not even start up for less than a second

hoary rose
#

#

30 seconds

woven epoch
#

Ah

#

Any error messages

hoary rose
#

no

#

sometimes it says

#

#

it crashed

#

send report through this file?

woven epoch
#

Ah

#

I think you might need to reset the installer

#

Or just uninstall and and re instal

hoary rose
#

i'll try deleting and then trying again

woven epoch

i'll come back if it happens again

How do you unbind a cheat on debug mod

gloomy coral
#

Go to saves folder and open debugmod.globalsettings.json and then delete the line corresponding to the key you wanna unbind

woven epoch
#

I love how it takes 1 second to delete or instal the mod

#

But you have to go into the literal files to remove a key bind

# hoary rose why does my game crash when i have custom knight, benchwarp and debug mod?

It sounds like either

  • You're on the wrong patch (some people have opted into beta patches, which mods don't currently work on), or
  • you're missing a dependency such as ModCommon, or
  • you are having the Game Controller crash, which is usually fixable by starting HollowKnight with your controller disconnected, and then connecting it once you're in the main menu
pliant lantern
# hoary rose looks like this now

You'll need to reset the ModInstaller, which has instruction in the pins pinknight . Make sure when first running the installer, that you are selecting the correct folder when it asks for the Hollow Knight game path.

Hi, I have a large problem with my game rn and i think its due to the debug mod. I installed the mod on my game (without backing up my saves D:) and now for some reason I can't hit enemies anymore (even though they can still hit me). I think this is because i uninstalled the mod with something like invincibility enabled, but i redownloaded it and toggled each setting off and the bug is still happening. Have already verified my files and it didn't fix it. What, if anything, can i do to fix this?

fair briar
#

do you have debug mod now?

mortal root
#

not rn

fair briar
#

get it

mortal root
#

got it

fair briar
#

ok go into the game, and enable the layout

#

then in the big box in the left see what your naildamage is

west bane
#

sounds like nail damage 0

vernal rain
#

yep

mortal root
#

I'll check that asap, ty

fair briar
#

then with + and - you can change your nail damage

#

without charms, old nail is 5 and pure nail is 21

mortal root
#

yep, added to nail damage and it instantly fixed it, thanks a ton! never would have figured that out lol

thorn merlin
#

rando and rando map mod failed to load

fair briar
#

you need serecore QoL vasi and benchwarp

thorn merlin
#

I only had QoL and benchwarp

#

I have SFcore

#

not serecore

#

ok then

west bane
#

it says out of date

thorn merlin
#

I have to ignore this, right

#

ok it works

fair briar
#

dont ignore it

#

click on the orange box

thorn merlin
#

but if I do so, it will downpatch randomizer mod ! no?

fickle parrot
#

how would updating it downpatch it?

thorn merlin
#

I have the most recent version of it, with the cursed nail and all that stuff

#

is it finally on the modinstaller ?

fickle parrot
#

i dont even know what the cursed nail is thkhands

vernal rain
#

judging from the orange box, no

fair briar
#

dont update it

thorn merlin
#

same for the map I guess

fair briar
#

you have the version that is newer then the one on the installer

thorn merlin
#

I updated benchwarp tho

fair briar
#

so the installer thinks, "hey, thats different"

thorn merlin
#

ok

#

I see

fair briar
limber egret
#

Yeah, you're just missing serecore

fickle parrot
#

weird question but what does the "split cloak" "split claw" and "cursed nail" do in rando 3 cuz im not sure

fair briar
#

the directions of nail slashes and stuff are rando

#

you cant hit up without unlocking it for example

fickle parrot
#

oh thats actually pretty fun thanks very much

fair briar
#

fireb0rn covered it

limber egret
#

You will pick up "Left claw" which lets you wall cling left. It will add an extra check at claw also.

fickle parrot
#

ahh didnt see it then

fair briar
#

in a stream

limber egret
#

If you have items duped, split claw is not duped, there's still one left and one right.

rain jetty
#

how do you use item randomizer?

limber egret
#

Download the mod installer from the pins, then download randomiser 3

fair briar
#

and serecore, vasi, QoL and benchwarp

rain jetty
#

thanks

dense sigil
#

My Mod installer fails to download Vasi and ModCommon with the new modinstaller

fair briar
#

what is "the new modinstaller"?

dense sigil
#

8.7.1

fair briar
#

ok

#

whats the error?

dense sigil
fair briar
#

what even-

#

new one

#

close the installer and try again?

dense sigil
#

Tried that

#

even redownloading it

fair briar
#

you have internet right?

dense sigil
#

yeah

#

it can install other mods

fair briar
#

wierd

dense sigil
#

Don't think it'll work, but think I'll reinstall the game

#

maybe that'll help

fair briar
#

no

#

ehm

#

you know where the mods folder is?

dense sigil
#

yes

fair briar
#

see if theres a vasi or modcommon .zip

dense sigil
#

a damaged zip file shows up after downloading it

#

whether you chose the quit or the continue

#

same with Vasi

fair briar
#

then restart the modinstaller and see if the pop up

dense sigil
#

Will the modinstaller recognize them when downloading mods such as room rando

fair briar
#

yes

#

it should

dense sigil
#

righto give me a sec

#

That did it

#

thanks a ton

#

wait now it just won't run the mods at all

#

even tho they are all installed, and placed correctly

Do you need to do something more than just activating the debug mod on the launcher for it to work?

I have a.... wierd problem
reaaaallly wierd
hhmmm
I installed hollow point
but unistalled it
ok so all is good right? nop
for some reason healing takes like 2 soul instead of the 33 and it takes like 1 second
It might seem cool but i really don´t want this, i tried to unistall the game, install again, unistall delete all files, install again
and wierder is: it only happens on 1 save file
all others are good

Hi, I reached out here two days ago maybe? But even with the help of Someone 𓌬, my issues sadly still remains. (thanks for your help tho Someone). My current issues are that the game does not seem to load in the mods, I have made sure/done the following things:

  • Triple checked the path
  • Deleted GlobalSettings in the saves folder
  • Made sure the Modding API was enabled
  • Reset the installer (followed the pinned comments instructions)
  • Reinstalled HK, which weirdly gave me the Unhanded exception error, but is fixed by following the pinned comments
  • Probably more but cant remember rn.

Have no idea what the issue might be, and a thing is that even if i open the file location using Steam, and navigate my the mod folder, the mods I have downloaded are there, but they never seem to be "loaded" in the game.

mystic owl
#

are you using mod installer 1 or 2?

stark lake
#

So this is my first time trying out a mod.
I'm using the debug mod and tried using the quicksave feature. I used this in the pantheon of hollownest but it looks like I cant use it there. Can anybody help me?

mystic owl
#

quicksave feature is terrible for me it never works tbh :/

weary cliff
mystic owl
#

yeah.. the first one stopped working
give me a sec

#

the first one from Dyno bot

#

i think that´s the one
is it one where the background is black?

weary cliff
#

I think I downloaded the first pinned message one from Dyno. But it does not have black background

mystic owl
#

then it´s not the working one

#

the first one is no longer online or something idk it´s wierd

weary cliff
#

Oh, i see some light in the tunnel ^^ where could I find the installer2.0?

mystic owl
#

give me a min

#

it´s downloading(gonna see if it´s this one)
let me say it´s not the one that has an image of zote(no suprise it no longer works <.<)

#

gonna see if it´s that one from 56

spring bane
#

don´t worry with that
just follow what basil said

#

it´s just 1 file and it worked wonders

real jacinth

Installer 1 also works just fine. Please don't spread misinformation

mystic owl
#

seriusly? when i try using it it never works
it says that it is offline and can´t do anything

#

and i saw some more people with the same problem, might just be a bug, sorry then

left dagger
#

i'm sorry i'm confused how do i fix the soul thing

mystic owl

do what basil said(like 5 messages above)

^^

left dagger
#

I have qol for mod installer but im not sure what to do with it? Im sorry im confused. Its early day for me. Im tired

real jacinth
#

You go to saves location. Open the userX json file in notepad. And change the values for healing

left dagger
#

I can't even find the save files.

mystic owl
#

write on your search thingy %appdata%

real jacinth
#

.

left dagger
#

Oh im stupid I forgot I can search

real jacinth
#

Type the whole thing in your address bar and press enter

left dagger
#

It says that the focus amount is already 33, but in game it takes like 2 seconds to actually heal

real jacinth
#

Did you open the right save

left dagger
#

User1.json in notepad

#

Which is my 110 file that im having problems with

real jacinth
#

Did you save the changes you made and then restart the game

left dagger
#

i didn't make any changes though. it was already 33 when i opened it

real jacinth
#

Screenshot it

left dagger
real jacinth
#

Do you have quick focus equipped

left dagger
#

No

#

Its fine. I can just restart the save if nothing works

real jacinth
#

Do you have any mods on right now

left dagger
#

Custom knight (no skins in file except default), API, mod common

pliant lantern
#

@left dagger did you try using the mod file that was in my list of ways to fix it?

pliant lantern
left dagger
#

No. I have quick slash, strength, shaman, grubsong, dreamwielder

pliant lantern
#

The Hollow point bug makes it so that you don't heal

real jacinth
#

Install QOL

pliant lantern
#

You need QOL on for the json to be correct and to update

real jacinth
#

That is probably very old save data. Before you had hollow point

#

Delete that json. Install qol

#

Then run your game. Close game. Go get that json again and look inside it

left dagger
#

Got it

#

Sorry for the confusion! But thank you for your help nonetheless

No one has to do this for me but Im wondering if theres a description of all the mods and what they do somewhere out there on the internet

My mod installer keeps glitching out and going to a bigger window saying “manually” to install the mods, instead of the nice menu it usually is when I launch the mod installer, is there any way to make this not happen?

Are you getting an error before that?

brave needle

Yes

The error being...

Well I just uninstalled it and reinstalled it, and it’s working right now, but I’ve done that before and it happened again. So i guess if it happens again I’ll be back here

slow tiger
#

where do i find the hollow knight files that contain all the text so i can edit them all to swedish

fair briar

nowhere

#

theres a mod that allows that tho

its called language support

i installed that one, i couldnt figure out how it worked though

umm, can someone help with Daughter of Hallownest skin

#

there's buncha files there

and i dunno what to do with them

fair briar
#

got into the zip and go to hollow_knight_data>managed>mods, and only extract the daughter of hallownest folder thats in the customknight folder

jolly sonnet
#

what about the customhp bar folder?

#

that seems important too

wheat orchid
#

It’s just a hp bar skin

jolly sonnet
#

well, that's a really cool feature

#

that is meant to be somehow used

#

listen here, do i put the CustomHpbar folder in the Daughter of Hallownest folder and extract that?

wheat orchid
#

The hp bar folder goes in the mods folder

fair briar
#

no the customhpbar mod generates a seperate folder in the mods folder

OHHH

I GET IT

i have been enlightened

tranquil radish
#

So I'm trying to reset my mod installer as its not working but I have 1 braincell and idk if I need to set this path to where my HK is installed or where I want to put my installer at

#

I checked the pins and this simple question didn't seem to be answered as its simple but like I said before I currently have 1 braincell and don't want to mess everything up

wheat orchid
#

Where hk is installed

tranquil radish
#

thank you

#

I think I got it fixed now, thank you again

#

new thing, my mod installer when I drag it around now kinda floats and lags behind

#

is that normal or is my pc dying

wheat orchid
#

I’d say it’s either normal or neither

tranquil radish
#

okay

#

no other program is doing this

#

only the mod installer program, its kinda fun to "toss" it around but I'm worried its something harmful

light rose
#

Is it just me or does geo never show up when using the pure vessel skin?

#

Actually all me skins wont make geo show up

limber egret
#

Copy the Geo.PNG file from default into all the skins that are missing it.

#

Also, only change skins in rooms that don't have a lot of stuff in them, as that can sometimes cause problems. Most bench rooms are safe, but there's a few that have a lot in them, like the Deepnest Hot Springs bench

light rose
#

I did it in hot springs crossroads and it glitched out

#

But thanks

Did you also do the first bit?

what randomized mod would be the best to use for the current version and does anyone have a video on how to install the mod? thanks!

fallow pilot
#

The one in the modinstaller is up to date. If you know how to use the modinstaller you're good.

#

If not, then check out the pins for background info and launch the software, it's not too hard to figure out

limber egret
#

Install the mod installer from the pins
Download Randomiser 3

#

Also download QoL mod, Benchwarp, Mod Common, Vasi, and Serecore

novel bronze
#

I already have CustomKnight installed, if the file with the pictures is zipped (only 1 file), should I extract then add it? Or it doesn't matter?

Extract it

Hi there

#

May i ask st

#

Normally, ur moved to the home screen after the end credit.
Then in multiplayer mod, what happens when

  1. The host sees the ending
  2. A guest sees the ending
real jacinth
#

Nothing different

#

Your worlds are your own

glacial charm
#

So ppl get kicked out?

real jacinth
#

Maybe

glacial charm
#

So you dont know

real jacinth
#

It would only do that if the host caused a disconnect

#

Not clients

#

It'd be the same thing as quitting out of a save to main menu

glacial charm
#

I thought the connection was bound to the savefile

#

Like the map

real jacinth
#

If host quits, then all disconnect. If one client quits, doesn't matter

glacial charm
#

And when dreamnailing hollow knight, wat happens if tgere were two players, and one player goes into the dream realm

#

Another player is just left in the room?

west bane
#

yes

real jacinth
#

They go to dream realm

#

Yes

#

Your worlds are separate

#

The other would still be fighting their boss

glacial charm
#

If the other player dreamnails too, will they join the same dream realm, or a separate one?

real jacinth
#

Yes

#

It's the same room

glacial charm
#

Ah

#

Thx

real jacinth
#

So you'd see each other

#

But again, your bosses are different

#

And your levels are your own

#

So if one person started the final climb, you'd just see them jumping off of nothing

#

And they'd see you slowly going below the void level that's rising

glacial charm
#

Then if its same for items and stuffs, the host getting a charm doesnt mean it goes to all other players

west bane
#

correct

real jacinth
#

Your worlds are your own

glacial charm
#

Also one player unlocking a door doesnt unlock everyone's door

#

I het it

#

I get it*

real jacinth
#

The mod only shows where other people are

#

And allows some dmg interaction

glacial charm
#

I also saw players doing pvp

real jacinth
#

But that's it

glacial charm
#

Right

#

Thx guys!

chilly tinsel
#

What is the default naildmg value in debug mod (pure nail)

west bane
#

Mine says 32 even after reinstalling

you have strength on

chilly tinsel
#

Oh right

32 is default with strength (it's correct)

Will adding a skin mod lag the game too much (I play on lowest graphics, I only got 4 gbs of ram lmao)

You might struggle a little, but you could try it. The Modding API itself actually makes the game run better, so that could balance it out.

look at pins

#
  1. Make sure your installer exe is on your desktop.
  2. Reset your installer (#archived-modding-help message)
  3. go to your game files, and delete the Mods folder (Located at Hollow Knight->hollow_knight_data->Managed->Mods)
  4. Run the installer again as admin.

CustomKnight skins go here:

(You'll need to right-click hollow_knight.app and select "show contents" or something like that)

You also seem to be missing the SereCore mod

Or something is just old?

It says it’s missing Seanprcore but recently it’s been changed to SereCore

#

Nvm you have serecore

#

Some mod just needs to switch to Serecore

high patrol
#

oh... does that mean I should install seanprecore as well?

#

I have serecore for randoMapMod I believe

wheat orchid
high patrol
#

is there an updated version? how do I use it then

wheat orchid
#

Idk which mod

high patrol
#

oh okay, does that mean custom knight is just unusable at the moment?😔

wheat orchid
#

No?

#

CustomKnight has nothing to do with SereCore or seanprcore

#

It’s another mod that needs to be updated

#

Well I gtg

high patrol
#

which one? sorry I'm not following

#

oh okay, thanks anyways

pliant lantern
#

@high patrol You just need to put the Custom Knight skin files into the path I posted
I think it puts the default one into the wrong path, so you may need to move it.
But other skins go in the same general area, that's why I posted the example image

While installing the randomizer 3 mod, it gave me this error.

can someone help me with this error

royal olive

You should send the crash report it created

pliant lantern

That's just a generic crash message

sly sand
#

I downloaded the mod and it gave error

pliant lantern
#

"The Mod" ?

sly sand
#

mod API

pliant lantern
#

You probably want to use the ModInstaller from the first pinned message, and it'll make sure you have the correct ModdingAPI for the Current patch

#

Also, make sure that you're not playing on the Beta updates for Hollow Knight

#

Also, if you're using a controller, then you may need to have it disconnected before launching Hollow Knight, and then connect it when you get to the main menu

if yall got room for another error question--

im getting this whenevr i open the mod installer

i did that but im still havn the same issue

pliant lantern
#

Then you missed a step. If it's done correctly, then it'll work

#

Are you downloading the installer from somewhere else maybe? Because you want the one from here (in the first pin)

novel bronze
#

i download from the pin, then i open it

pliant lantern
#

And you need to follow all of the steps in the message about deleting the old files.

novel bronze

ohh wait wahuiiwhua which message?

ahhhhhhh that pin okay okay ty

You probably want to use the ModInstaller from the first pinned message, and it'll make sure you have the correct ModdingAPI for the Current patch

Also, if you're using a controller, then you may need to have it disconnected before launching Hollow Knight, and then connect it when you get to the main menu

You also might need to use steam's "Verify Game Integrity". It looks like maybe you tried to manually install the API, and did it incorrectly. Your crash message says that it didn't find the file that contains the game's code.

I am a casual player and wanted custom skins. I followed the instructions to download modinstaller for mac and I got it all to work! However, everytime it's working, my ps4 controller (connected through usb) stops working completely! I did notice modding api is out of date... does anyone know what's going on?

Make sure you tell the api to update, unless it say's it's out of date over and over

#

And Joytokey (or Joy2Key) are remapping programs

warm flume
#

oh how would I do that? Sorry about all the questions, never done this before! Thank you for the help

#

Macs and some controllers get all wonky with mods

#

so you need to use a program that tells your computer that all of the controller inputs are actually keyboard inputs

#

which is what that program does

In mod installer, click the "out of date" box

warm flume
#

oh yes i've been doing this and every once in a while it shows out of date again

#

hm doesn't seem like joytokey is compatible with mac, any alternatives?

pliant lantern
#

I don't use mac, so I don't have any specific recommendations tamershrug
