or just this one
i did the things and it didnt work
do i need to translate everything for it to work? most of the files arw still in english
i mean, as long as there is the different folder name it works ingame, so then you only need to adjust the things you want to adjust
but if you only want to replace english text, mulhima made a mod for that: https://github.com/TheMulhima/HollowKnight-ChangeIngameTextMod/ (https://github.com/TheMulhima/HollowKnight-ChangeIngameTextMod/releases/download/v1.0/ChangeIngameText.dll)
i think using the lang support mod is easier if i can get it to work
what ive done is i copied the EN folder last night and named it SE, started translating and then today i added the code into mainmenu.txt of the SE folder and changed the ## to SE, is that what i should have done?
i also changed the "language name here" to "Swedish"
yes
huh cause last time i checked in game i couldnt find swedish (15 mins ago)
oh well ill try again when i get home
Just curious. Is there a way to get rid of this in the top right corner?
aw
Oh, apparently I'm stupid and it doesn't show on the main game, only in esc. 
LMAO
Hello, I have a question. I downloaded the Mod-Installer (Mac) But it just crashes. Am I the only one with that problem?
does anybody have a debug mode for hollow knight on the xbox app
xbox app thats on pc not console
Put on desktop, right click and open package contents. Then open the executable named modinstaller
Thank you
Hi i just wonder if i could get any help with the modding
I clicked disable all mods on acident and now all mods is gone could somebody tell me how to fix it?
click enable modding api
where
down
did you relaunch it?
No
then delete the mod installer and install that again
Why
bc all mods is gone
Deleting Hollow knight won't do anything other than waste time
close it and open it
ok
you didn't do that
yes i did
Hi, sorry to disturb you but even after watching a video about the matter i could't play online ( multiplayer mod ) with my friend. When i'm connecting is disconnecting me after a second.
This version of the game can't be modded either
I found some, thanks
sad
Hello. I have a problem. When I play the game with mods enabled, the game becomes broken. The title music isn't playing, and after clicking "Start game", the bars say "Loading..." and remain empty. When I uninstall the mods, the problem stops. Can someone help?

thanks
how do you use the mod console?
I'm using item randomizer 3, I have a key and a rancid egg, but when i try going to jiji, it says "Elderbug's words echoed... There's a time and place for everything, but not now." What do i need to do? It's not like I'm trying to ride a bike inside a house or something, what's wrong?
you probs dont need it
its for people making mods
Rando doesn't allow you to use your only key in jiji if you didn't unlock waterway
oh.. wait which one is the mod menu?
ive been looking for that one
Oh, I see, thanks
the modinstaller?
hey, so modinstaller won't start at all. it says it's downloading modding api, i click ok, and then this pops up every time. i've deleted the modinstaller folder, i've verified the games integrity or whatever it's called on steam to get mods off the game, i've deleted the data folder and replaced it with one saved on another harddrive. but idk why modinstaller won't start
just press continue
wdym doesnt work
cause then this just keeps happening
i did. now this pops up. should i then maybe just delete the whole folder?
restart your pc
it looks like i can update things? but this still happens after i click ok
eh just use modinstaller 2
Just checking: the game isn't running while you're doing this, right?
ye, it's not
I'm blind
ok?
Sorry to hear that 😦
So my game starting doing this and i have no idea which mod caused it. I had benchwarp, enemy randomizer, room and intem randomizer, hollow point (which i think caused it), QOL,, and the mods that let you run them
so you can't heal?
hollow point stops healing
if you dont wanna use hollow point any more
Hollow Point Fix
Download this file and drop it in the mods folder and open the save file affected by hollow point

wanna hear a hillarious joke?
question, what happens when you have hp fix and hp?
Guys have you heard of the new hk youtuber bofa?
i think you missed #hk-meme
if you use mine, probs nothing as it only changes playerdata when save file is loaded
if you want to make jokes go to#hk-meme or #off-topic
oh ok
how do you get a mod menu?
?i
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages. 
ooh, when did they make this?
he made it and not so long ago
When I use the ranomizer all enemys should be random and not the same correct
Depends on your mod settings
do you know what setting that is?
Read the readme
OK THAKNS
Sorry to disturb but to play multiplayer with a friend i need and he needs to install the modcommon, test of teamwork, multiplayer client and multiplayer servers. And to be in the same hamachi server with him then in the game put the ip server from hamachi and put 26950 in the second slot and then click connect and my friend too.
Cuz i watch a video and is not working at all is like doing nothing.
Thank you for the future help.
1 down, the the upper option and then the upper option is your language
oh wait its like a mod or something
Why does shitmosts show up twice?
i have no clue
Yeah. It does seem like that
the language its tied to the alphabet
cause i can change the language to like french, but the characters dont change
oh, how can I change it to english
IDK. Try disabling the mods one by one and see if it changes back
aight thank you
Delete arts mod
That's what happens when a mod fails to load
So if it shows up twice something is wrong
what does shitmosts even do?
hey that did the trick, Thanks!
ah, I see, Thanks for the help
Where do I change the game mode to Steel Soul on game files?
Do I need to download some app?
I've already finished the game, and so I created a save, Idk if in that moment I created a normal or a steel soul, but I was with a friend seeing my screen, and then they saw me creating a Steel Soul save, but I can be mistaken. So, I've played 13 hours without dying to just now realize that this isn't a Soul Steel save.
I tried to create one, but I couldn't
I finished the game one more time on my old save, and then I could create a Steel Soul, but I've already played 13 hours on that save without any deaths
How can I turn it to a Steel Soul?
Idk if it's completely wrong, but in this case I prefer to edit the save, since I don't have the patience to play more 13 hours carefully to not die and continue having fun on this save
Is there a mod that lets you have infinite monarch wings
I think debug mod has an infinite jumps setting
Ooo I gotta download that one then, thanks
i'm trying to use custom knight mod but for some reason most of the skins i downloaded don't work, does anyone know why?
In the pins
there's a message about fixing Hollow Point, which mentions methods you can use to edit a save file. When editing the save, you'd need to change "permadeathMode": 0, from 0 ti 1.
As far as why it wouldn't show up? If you're using mods, some of them affect starting a save. Outside of that, I'm unsure.
You installed the ones that aren't working incorrectly
ok
alr thanks
If there are any extra folders, then it won't work
ok
how do I install mod installer if I don't have it on steam?
Where do you have it from?
You don't have any dependencies
Kinda a huge red flag when two mods have huge error messages. Lol
its the item and enemy randomizer that i turned off
Turning them off doesn't do that
You don't have ModCommon
Which is a dependency for custom Knight
Then probably you haven't done everything right :P
Check the Multiplayer Troubleshooting pinned message, and make sure that you both followed each step.
Personally, I'd recommend using HKMP instead (https://github.com/Extremelyd1/HKMP), which isn't on the installer at this time, but is a lot easier to use and is actively being developed. If you choose to use it, it does have a dedicated support server linked in that GitHub page.
If modinstaller stopped working (the game says theres mods wich enabled when i dont) and dosnt let me install certain mods, benchwarp, randomizer3.0
i think it has to do something with an update, because it said it was updating those mods when i launched the modinstaller
Disabled mods still update if they are downloaded
I'm having trouble fully understanding your problem. Mod Installer itself should be fine, unless you haven't used it in over a month.
Are you having an actual issue with a mod?
Are you trying to play with specific mods, or trying to play vanilla?
the main thing i noticed was, when i loaded up modinstaller, the mods: benchwarp, randomizer3.0, QoL were unintsalled, on the launcher, they appeared as uninstalled and i couldnt install them, when i loaded up the game, they appeared as installed
Should I be making the > managed > mods folder myself or will they automatically be made
They should be automatically made
thank you, im trying to follow the instructions above (I saw the pin)
im still confused on how to stop "sequence contains no matching element"
im on version 1.4.3.2, and the exe is on my desktop
You might just need to close the installer and open it again. If you want, you can go and delete them from your /mods folder manually.
i tried the first part, didnt work.
ill try manually deleting them though, ty
If you've used mods at least once, then the folders already exist. When following the instructions to reset your installer, make sure that you're deleting all of the files that it tells you to, and make sure that you downloaded the most recent copy of mod installer
I wonder if a .bat file could just be made to automate resetting the installer 
oh thank you!
Would those files I need to delete be in the steamapps > common > hollow knight
or in Team Cherry > Hollow Knight
the fact that there are 2 paths to different things can be confusing
The APPDATA ones are the problem ones
This message shows you where the installer files that cause an issue are: #archived-modding-help message
And then you need to delete the mods folder before running the installer again

The mods folder is in the game files path
I dont remember having a mods folder in the first place unless my brain is on low battery mode
it probably is
If you've used mods at least once, then you do
I did use them once, and it got kinda messed up so I reset them using verify integrity on steam
That doesn't remove the mod files / mod folder though
It just removes the Modding Api, which makes them work
The folder is still there
ah and (hopefully) final question
when im installing the installer again, is my game path
common > Hollow Knight
or
common > Hollow Knight > hollow_knight_data

Thank you! ^^
and is this the most updated version of the installer at the moment? #archived-modding-help message

awesome!
(Oh wow it’s the same link)
(What a surprise)
and I save it on my desktop right (Ive been having trouble with this, and I want to make sure I do it all right)
Desktop is considered the ideal location, yeah
||Specifically, you don't want it saved in a location that Windows treats as a hazard area. A lot of people leave it in Downloads, which causes issues a lot of times. Personally, I keep mine in a programs folder on a secondary HDD.||
And you had found and deleted your mods folder, right?
oh I just found it
do I delete just mods or managed
just mods I assume
dont want to break the game
Mods, yes

randomizer 3
and, is benchwarp needed?
oop I guess so
annnnnnd
"the process cannot access the file C:tmp HKmodinstaller/LICENSE
because it is being used by another process"
Why has Vasi recently been broken
¯_(ツ)_/¯
extracted, opening installer again
it's probably the installer trying to do too many things at once
and just happens to get stuck on vasi
every time
wait a second
Oof
double click it
without it installing again
You double click the exe
it doesn't "install"
It isn’t a installer for a program
it's just a program
well now its saying sequence contains no matching element again
it didnt earlier right before
did you reset it ever?
Did you remove Vasi.zip after extracting
was I not meant to delete the original file after i extracted it ._.
It’s fine, just do what mickely said, I was just guessing
After extracting, go into the new Vasi folder and get Vasi.dll
the vasi.dll file should be in the mods folder
take it out
Didn’t you extract it
hence.... extract
yeah, but I just left it in an unzipped folder instead of no folder
Ah then this
ahhhh thank you!!
I need help
I was forced to delete the mods and everything bc my ModInstaller bugged out
I redownloaded it and it seemed to all work but now I cant find the custom skins folder'
It's in the picture a couple posts up
Running Custom Knight at least once will generate it. You can also make it if you want.
I think I got it
If you need to redownload skins, they are in the pins 
Thanks
So uh.... how do I make Uuwuu fight works ?
Xbox game pass pc/Microsoft
I think that it doesn't right now? Redfrog had mentioned needing to fix something about it
awwww :< RIP upside down Uuwuu, I dont deserve you UwU
Unfortunately, that version isn't moddable. Only the Steam and GOG versions are.
You can keep an eye on this site for a sale on a compatible version: https://isthereanydeal.com/game/hollowknight/info/ (note that many sites like Humble Bundle sell the games on the form of steam keys)
It seems to go on sale for 50% off every other month
Ok thanks though
First time modding Hollow Knight, I followed fireb0rn's custom knight installation video to a T, but once I get in game every custom skin I select just ends up a jumbled mess of white textures
Not sure if I'm missing something or what 
Also, Is the pale champion mod still available ? I can't seem to install it
- What OS are you on
- Did you forget to install ModCommon?
- Did you set up your folders correctly?
is the pale champion mod still working ? i cant install it :<
AFAIK Pale champion is fine. I haven't seen anyone mention any issues with it
Does it show up on top left of main menu?
can someone help me with custom trials mod? Every time I enter the trial nothing spawns and I'm forced to quit the game to get out
Did you add custom trials?
can someone help me im doing the item randomizer with enemy randomizer but it seems like some items i pick up just break my game like i cant move or press escape i have to alt f4
Do you also have Debug enabled?
yes
Honestly, I'm not super familiar with Custom Trials. I know that there are trials made for different versions of the mod, so a lot of the trials are bundled with the version of it that was used. But other than that 
I can't even find a readme for it for more info.
It sounds like you accidentally bound something in debug, although I'm not sure what. If you press F1 to pull up the debug menu after it happens, you can possibly see in the debug log what it is that you're doing.
You might need to clear out your debug binding entirely (by pressing WindowsKey + R, entering %appdata%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\, click OK, then delete DebugMod.GlobalSettings.json )
People commonly try to cancel binding an action by pressing ESC, but that just binds the action to ESC
But Randomizer 3 shouldn't be causing any issues, and while Enemy Rando is... odd, I haven't heard of it causing that kind of issue either
yeah im not sure the log at the bottom of debug says "Enemy List updated +1" but my character is just stuck in the item pickup motion but ill try that too
yeah im just going to try the new randomizer since im using the old one
Oh yeah, don't use 2
AFAIK the only reason 2 is still on the installer is because technically there are some things that 2 does that were never put into 3, buut they aren't things that are even remotely comparable to everything that 3 offers.
ok thanks for your help i just tried 3 and it works good so far
Which XML file did you put there?
the one from fireborn's video called wavesequence. I think it was the absolute fool one
Send it here
So i'm messing around with mods for the first time in a few months and when the modinstaller goes to update mods it gives me "Unhandled exception has occurred. . ." errors. I've tried clearing out the modinstaller data from appdata/local and "verify game files" (on steam version of HK), and still the problem persists. I don't understand how it's even still "updating" mods since I was under the impression i deleted them. Anyone know what's going on?
Check pins and make sure you have an up to date mod installer
i redownloaded it from the link in the pins
I believe theres a fix for unhandled exception in the pins as well
i don't see it but maybe i'm blind

ok so when i add the mod to the installer it says succesfull but i cant see the mod in installer
Screenshot it
ye
Tamam
(means ok)
(I figured. 😅)
but thre isnt any mods in installer
and its still like this
I'm not even sure how you managed to install a mod while it was like this, but okay.
Check the pinned messages for how to reset your mod installer.
In fact I think people have been having problems with this one recently
I would download the most recent mod installer from the pins from user 56
i trie to reset my installer but there was no mods folder in that folder
And just use that one
Did you make sure to download the one for Windows?
yes
Where did you get Hollow Knight from?
steam
Have you moved Mod Installer out of your downloads folder?
yes
Not sure where to go from here, I'm afraid

was it like that before you downloaded debug?
please describe the full process
its like that with all mods
you start with opening it, what happens after
so when i try to add a mod to installer it says succesful but there is no mods in the mod loader menu place
and becasuse oıf that i cant use any mods
I think it's just always looked like this, Ruttie
They've just manually added mods using the manually add button? Is that correct, Square?
yes
if it always looked like that then you need the have had a error
you open it, it gives a error and the option to continue or quit
yes i tryed to reset the loader but there is no mods folder in that other folder
ok
im using the custom knight mod and someof the skins wont work even after I click on them
do you have modcommon
its this one
yes
I click on it and some of these dont work
but half will, Do I have too many?
make sure you have the latest version of windows and the latest .net framework, if you dont know what any of what i siad means, google it
I have 8 modded skins (not including the default)
ok i know it im trying to buy a license so i cant download the latest one
check that the file structure you have is Customknight(folder) -> Skin name(folder) -> png's(image)
ok ill come back with the latest .net framework if it still doesnt work,thanks for the help guys
ok
ok I think I got it
if it doesn't work, can you screenshot it?
how do i backup my savefiles before installing a mod?

Go to wherever your Save Files are
And copy the savefiles
the savefiles should have a name userX.dat
where X is the save slot's number, from 1 to 4
@subtle knoll does this help?
um
Hi
so I'm trying to use the debug mod to give myself the full map
How do I do this?
is there some kind of handy-dandy tutorial I can refer to?
Yes thanks
sadly thats not possible with debug
so to backup my files i should just copy this file into a different location, and if there will be any problem just to put the file i copied instead of this one?
?
h elp
although that could actually work too, what he meant is you go into the folder, in there are user(number 1-4 here).dat. Those are your actual save files, so user1.dat is the one that, ingame, is in the first slot. Then just copy one of those to a different location
exactly, if for example you made a backup of the first save file, so user1.dat, and that breaks then for whatever reason, you just take your backup and replace the broken file with it
what?
is the map sync done? or does that mean it's cancelled
wait which one
If that is the hkmp mod, you can see others on the map, but syncing the state of the world(ex: items) and enemy positions and attacks isn’t added yet
why is it crossed out?
the user1.dat.bak are automatically generated "backup" files, so you dont need to copy those. Also, your probably asking why you would even backup the files if the game automatically does that, the problem is that the backup files sometimes like to get corrupted too
ok thanks
yeah i was confused that you dont have the .dat, but you probably just didnt turn on file name extensions
yeah but i looked at the file type and it said dat
Oh yeah, as above. You don't have file extensions on so it will just be the top one
As you've figured out
yeah thats the right one

Does the multiplayer mod require hamachi or some kind of server app? Or does the mod file do all the work
There is no HealthManager in 1221, is there any other way to get the enemy's HP?
Read👏the👏readme👏
I can't find the mods folder in the data folder, while trying to install custom knight skins. I've already run the game with the mod, so I don't know what's wrong with it.
go into managed
you'll get more help in #archived-modding-development then here
I already have. I meant the data folder that's in the managed folder
So i instaled modinstaller and everything but when i get in the game the mods arent working
I'm having a problem with CustomKnight, even though I have the right folders in the right places it still wont work. When I go into the menu it only shows the skin name, not the icon, and when i click on it my skin stays default.
Restart the game?
Then either you don't have modcommon. Or your file structures are wrong
The icons were also removed
Caused too much lag
It was modcommon i removed it earlier and now i'm mad about it
Thank you!!
You need to give more info:
- Define "not working"
- What mods are you trying?
- Where did you get the game from?
- What OS are you on?
So i got the game from steam im on windows 10 im triyng to use infinite notches and custom night and i instaled it got into the game and it wasnt there i restarted my pc and it still didnt work
Screenshot your installer and title screen
theres more should i screenshot it all ?
No
You have no modded files here.
Close your installer and reopen it again as admin
It should download the api
ok
the mod summaries?
i cant find any description for the online mod on it

ah
i think i found it
huh
why do many ppl use hamachi or a server app when it works without it?
(according to fireborn instruction video)
Too lazy/ignorant/incapable to port forward
Some folks don't have admin perms over their router or simply don't know how/don't want to learn how.
Also privacy concerns
ah, makes sense
i can't disable mods without ModInstaller2 crashing and nothing happening
I didnt work 
Download the most recent version from the pins
i did
i just lost my radiant on PV because of buggy mod so i wanted to turn it off and keep attempting
but i can't turn it off
oh okay i can't disable but i can uninstall
Head to your mods folder and just move the mod into the disabled folder, or delete it.
Did you move your install of Hollow Knight recently? And/or do you have multiple installs?
yea..
It is probably modding a different install
Or it is directed to a place where hollow knight isn't
Well that's your problem lol.
-
If you have multiple installs, then there's specific steps to get them working separately correctly (which I don't know all of off have, but iirc there's a guide for it on speedrun.com's hollow knight resources)
-
you'll need to reset your mod installer, and change the path of it to the correct one you want modded
Which reminds me! @real jacinth , I made a .bat that just deletes the mod installer APPDATA stuff. Is it okay if I post it for people?
(sorry to ping, but I didn't want randomly post a thing that deletes a thing without checking with a mod)
On your mod installer, you just need to click the "change install path" button (or something like that)
It's one of the bottom 4 buttons
Yeah that's fine. I'll want to inspect it before pinning it tho.
Should only be like 3 lines of code. Lol
Oh yeah, your wouldn't even need to pin it. I just want to post it at least once so that I can link it easily for people who seem to have difficulty finding the files
To fix "cannot access the file '\tmp\HKmodInstaller/LICENSE'":
- Navigate to your
\Modsfolder (by default it's\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\Mods) - Right-click
vasi.zip, and select "Extract All" in order to extractvasi.dllinto your mods folder. - Double check that
vasi.dllwas put into your mods folder directly, and not into it's own folder. - Delete
vasi.zip - Close and re-open Mod Installer
Reset ModInstallers on Windows:
Running the attached .bat file once will automatically reset Mod Installer and Mod Installer2
Oh neat. I didn't realize Discord would show the text if it's not a .txt
Plz pin so it's easy to find when you're not about. 😅
Bah. Can't open on my phone. I'll check it later
I'd rather pin it anyways. Looks more official if it's pinned. So people will be more willing to run it
Fwiw, I only put the pause because personally I don't like it when a .bat runs and closes without any communication to me
it works finnaly thanks 
This is good and nobody does this and it angers me
Yeah good point. If it goes too fast people won't know it worked
There's a lot of programs that put fake delays in for exactly this reason
237 bytes. Lol
does anyone have a link to the newest randomizer?
i cant find it in pins
or the drive
The Newset one is on ModInstaller
whats the name?
i mean the one that when you leave the area and come back they change
That's enemy randomizer
is that in the dox
its on the installer
Everything is on the installer
so say i go int a room and grimm is in there and i leave and come back it will be a differant person
Yes that's on the installer
Specifically, you want what I believe is called "Chaos Mode", as the setting in Enemy Randomizer
Enemy Randomiser
Read the readme for enemy randomizer. It explains the settings
There's a pinned list of them as well
Otherwise the mod installer should let you download it and read it
ok thx
Btw, if the big "load enemy Randomizer" button isn't on your main menu, then you'll need to go to Options > Mods and turn off Enemy Randomizer, then turn it back on, and restart Hollow Knight
How do i get Custom skins in the custom knight mod?
Skins are in the pins
You need to download the one(s) you want separately, and then place them in your Custom Knight folder. Make sure the file structure matches that of the default skin in the Custom Knight folder
Hey, i keep spawning at Xero in PoH whenever i go onto my main file and it wont stop spawning me there. I uninstalled all my mods via this file, is there anything out of the ordinary here?
Did you use benchwarp and place a bench there?
Do you see the knight
i can do the entirety of PoH like this apart from the first 10 bosses
Can you take a recording of this
Could you screenshot where you spawn in the room then
Spawn location is set in your save file
You'll have to set a spawn somewhere else.
So like... Go sit on another bench
henlO!
Helo
only one other bench i can think of to sit
me and my friends multiplayer isnt working, we are going through hamachi, i have client and server they only have client and we are usiing the same ip but we cant see each other-
we have mod installer 2 btw uwu
henlo uwu
There's plenty of benches in the game
Screenshot hamachi
They’re in p5
Also screenshot both pause menus
Pafait
Thank you
@vivid night have you followed the steps for the multiplayer procedure in the pins?
It might just be that you need to restart the game, sometimes it’s just weird
yup we did :'3
and we restarted the game before but we can try again maybe well have lck "
:'3
i rmemeber the first time we had issues with multiplayer you or someone gave us a download from the server because the one on the mod installer was old, is that stll the case?
on mod installer 2
No
k! just asking!
it works now!
we tried restarting the game and letting me boot in and connect before they joined hamachi and joined
thanks for being willing to assist, appreciated

how do i disable modding api? i'm using modinstaller 2 and it crashes every time i try to do it & i get an error.
Go to steam -> right click hollow knight -> click on properties-> click on local files -> click on verify integrity
yeah but that would delete my other mods right?
hum, I installed randomizer 3 and my PS4 controller isn't detected by hollow knight anymore (I'm on mac)
it's kind of a problem 😓
it didnt work
more detail i don't know i this helps but the music on the menu just doesn't play when its infinitely loading. So i'm kinda stuck
ill try one more thing\
.
Run steam in big picture mode, or if that doesn't work, use a controller to keyboard mapping program
okay, I'm searching on internet what big picture mod is 😅
okay
hi
wel now I can't even see the controller in my options 😓
i have cracked hollow knight and the mod inastaller doesn't work anyone can help?
No

bruh i already have the game in ps4 but i want mods that's why i have it cracked UwU
Don't care
ok i know how to run it now never mind
hey, how does I uninstall all the. mods?
cause now my game detects the controller but using my controller doesn't result in any actiions ingame 😓
Using steam or gog you can verify the game's files and it will revert to vanilla.
okay but when I do that my controller isn't detected all together, my controller was always detected prior to mod installation
yey
myy ccontrollr is back
well I gues modding isn't for this evening unfortunately 🙂
i cant launch a casual hollow knight save
it keeps bringing up randomizer mode
i tried disabling mods, didn't work
You mean that you're trying to start a new save and the randomizer options screen appears?
yes
You can simply disable all options if you wanted "vanilla". It might even be a preset? (Someone correct me on that.)
i did
Okay, uh, if you're desperate to revert to vanilla you can try verifying your game files to truly revert to normal. You can also remove the randomizer mod dll from your mods folder manually.
got it
I still don't understand where the issue lies unless you're trying to play other modes (like steelsoul) but you do what you need to
yea
Of course, remember NOT to mix up randomizer saves with vanilla saves. If you load a randomized save you HAVE to have the randomod installed
actually, i haven't played vanilla yet on pc
i just used mods bc i've already beat the game on both ps4 and switch
Ok
Now I'm tempted to see what happens if I load a rando save without Randomizer 3 installed
ok now my mod installer is having a mental breakdown
You need to disable Randomizer if you want to start a regular save.
Isn't there a button on the randomizer options screen that says to start a regular save
Can you screenshot it
uhh
Just to refresh my memory
Maybe if the mode select is toggled there's a vanilla option in there. There used to be a way to do a regular game
Maybe there just isn't anymore
As long as you have QoL on, it won't start a regular game, unless you change QoL's settings.
You can turn randomisation off completely, but it's not the same.
does anyone have a link to the installer?
?I don't but dyno does
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages. 
oh thanks
dude i tried it now that i have more battery TYSM it wworked
So I'm trying to use custom knight and downloaded a skin and put the files with the pictures in the folder like I'm supposed to, but when I go in game it just looks like this and nothing actually happens when I click it.
So i downloaded modinstaller and it was going good until i downloaded howwow knyight (it changes all the dialogue to horrible uwu spelling) and then it wouldn’t work, i tried to verify integrity but it did the same thing everytime, i need help
You don't have modcommon
you have to go in to the custom knight folder, click on the folder with the skin name. there should only be PNGs in the skin folder. you also need ModCommon
oh ok i forgot ModCommon, thanks
send a screenshot of your mods folder, including the download path
You're going to have to be more descriptive
do you still need modding help?
"it doesn't work" and "it does the same thing" tell us nothing to be able to help you
Right
Already off the bat, you're missing modcommon
So how would i get modcommon
Whatever that is

Windows Key + Shift + S and then click and drag a box around what you want to screenshot. Then CTRL+V to paste it in here. @novel bronze
Oh
Instead of taking photos of your screen 
Fair enough, i know how to screenshot i am extremely lazy rn and my brain hurts from googling how to fix this for like 2 hours but nothing is helping lol
Yeah, when I'm lazy I whip out my phone to use the camera on my laptop too. 😉
To each their own I guess. Seems like more effort to me
I’m not on discord on my computer
Im on my phone because i was trying to find answers on safari
No big deal, thought it might be useful info to you. Do what you do
Thanks ig
um.. I've got this weird problem where all of a sudden my mods "broke" my game
everything worked fine for a long time until somewhat recently
did you disable something you shouldn't have
when I tried to open the game with mods again it just wouldn't load any of my save files, or achievements
Sounds like a missing mod
the weird part is where when I launch the vanila version it's still broken
until I reinstall the game
then it's fine
Check the pins
I've tried reinstalling mod installer because I thought it was out of date, still this happens

^
ok
Where can I get quality of life?
It's called QoL in the modinstaller
oh I see. thanks
hey uh , does the mod loader only work on the steam version of hollow knight?
I believe so
I don't think modding is possible on any other version
awww,,
not even on like, the gog version ? i didnt think there would be many differences since theyre both on pc,
I'm not certain, the FAQ doesn't seem to mention gog. I mean you can try but I'm sure someone else will give you a more solid answer in a bit
gog also works
~ a gog player
Oop guess I was mistaken
I need help
Can you elaborate?
I tried to get a custom night but it's not appearing
I'm not getting anything for me to put the files into it
I'm not getting any of the mods I installed
Like they aren't in the game folder? Or they aren't showing up in game?
I can't get them to the game file
I had the pure vessel night
I have to put it in a game file though
?pins
Check the pinned messages for more information - https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/187137504393035776/823796522751623168/unknown.png
there's a pin that has a video on how to use the mod
you also need the mod itself
from the installer
I have the mod installer but I can't put the night on
It's not in a game file
Cuz I can't transport it
Do I just copy and paste it over to where I have my hollow Knight game is
Watch the video linked in this ^
I already did
It's by fire br0n
I've already watched it I've done what he's done and it's not popping up
what do you mean popping up
I can't find any of the night skins
did you download any
I'm having trouble putting it in the game file for it to work
Yes I downloaded four
okay. so they're probably in downloads then
None of my mods are loading in the game
that tells me nothing
What you want me to write a 50 page essay
no. I want actionable descriptions
things that tell me what you have done. what your current state is, etc
What else am I supposed to tell you off
screenshot your installer and title screen
Okay I followed the whole video until he shows the zip files
"it's not working" tells me nothing
But they're not popping up on my computer
things can be "not working" in a ton of ways
describing exactly what you're seeing and providing screenshots is the best way to get help
I just told you
you haven't told me anything specific
"they're not popping up on my computer" is not a helpful sentence
I followed the video until he showed the zip files that you have to put the skins in
I can't find them because they're not on my computer
you said you downloaded them
I can't find them on my computer even though I downloaded the skins
so they're probably in downloads
They aren't the skins are in download what am I supposed to do final just shove it in the game data
what
I'll just put the skins in game data
is that what fireborn does
lol
Have you even watched the video yourself
but you downloaded them
Watch the whole video until he talks about zip files
so they are on your computer
They're on my computer but I can't find the skins in game I'll just put the skins in hollow Knight data
is that what fireborn does?
he puts them in a very specific spot
and says where he's putting them
have YOU watched the video?
Yes
He puts them in a Pacific game zip file
He puts them in custom night zip file
•_•
Wait a minute
@real jacinth Now I need help because they're not showing up in game
I need help my mods aren't working they're not showing up in game
I may be using it wrong, but I can't seem to open the debug mod UI. It says it is installed in game, but it does not appear when I pause the game. Any ideas?
press f1
Pfft- thank you
@native ice same but it's not working when I press F1
@native ice
With the debug menu does it have to be a new save
No it doesnt
Well it's not working and I have it installed if you look the picture above
And is the moddingapi in your saves and the mod folder in the right place?
What do you mean
Do you know where your save data is?
I have no idea
?saves
Saves
Windows File Paths: (Assumes Default Steam Install Path, Adjust accordingly for DRM Free or Non-Standard Steam Path)
Game Files: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\``` ** ** Mac File Paths: ```Save Files: ~/Library/Application Support/unity.Team Cherry.Hollow Knight/ Game Files: ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/hollow_knight.app/``` ** ** Linux File Paths: ```Save Files: ~/.config/unity3d/Team Cherry/Hollow Knight/ Game Files: ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/```
In this folder there should be 2 files called moddingapi
You're not in the right location then
actually
take a screen shot of that for me real quick
could you show me a little higher so i can see the pathing
show the folder that says "game"
you have hollow knight on steam right?
somethin seems wrong here
You don't say
i've never been so confused
None of my crap is working
I think
They're the mods I installed
you haven't been putting things in the actual hollow knight folder
I've just been shoving them in here
Do I just copy all the crap and put it in the game data
go to steam
right click hollow knight, go to properties, local files, and hit browse
then send me a screenshot
i see
okay so, thats your real hollowknight file. The stuff you've been putting mods in has no effect on the game
did you make a copy of the hollow knight folder into your ddownloads?
and then launch that version?
Okay lets not worry about how it happened at the moment
I want to play with mods
well, you installed the mods in an instance of the game and then launched another instance of the game
that's why nothing is working
Gimme a second
What if I launched the game that was in the folder
Can I give that a try real quick
just hang on, cause there should be an easy fix to this
okay so on the modinstaller
at the very bottom do you see a button that says "Change Default Install Path"?
Yes
click that
from it, navigate to This Pc> your C: drive> Program Files (x86) > Steam > steamapps> common > hollow knight and hit ok
Done
Okay now try installing mods again
Do I hit revert back to unmoded
Just hit the uninstall button next to the mod and then reinstall it
Also I'm not sure what all that other stuff is in your folder labelled "game" but maybe just delete that i don't think it's doing anything
Like it's all white and it just has that in the top left?
Nvm
How do you get the pure vessel skin the one that you know YouTubers use
Could you provide link
Actually I have the link
Redo the video steps but this time do it in the right file
But what skin is it called
Probably just pure vessel
The mod that one installed do I just launch hollow Knight
What?
I have the mods I want installed do I launch the game
Yep
Oh great it's doing the same thing my other games doing
It says running but it's not actually playing
If you check my steam account it says I have like over a million hours on Titanfall 2
The mods are working just fine thank you
Your welcome, enjoy
Probably, might need an adapter since most pcs don't have built in bluetooth. Or maybe they do i just havent seen one
Does it work for other games on steam?
Then it should work
It works on cuphead
Help
is it possible to edit exaltation to prevent a specific charm from glorifying?
Maybe check the config file?
I need help
With?
Did you follow the steps in the video again but this time in the correct folder?
Yes
I can't add it to the folder
Do I go into my games actually give me a second
What do you mean you can't add it to the folder? Like you can't find the folder?
Exaltation doesnt give a config file
Oh then I'm not sure
How do I get the mod installer installed on my computer so I can just click on it
I'm not sure what you mean by that?
exaltation, between bugs and things not working has been a pain in my side, but i really like the glorification when it does do its thing, does anyone know any mods that are as good, charm overhaul is alright, but not incredible, and as far as i can tell the installer doesn't seem to have any other charm focused mods
I just read through all the exaltations and it looks really cool, lightbringer was pretty good, it changed a couple charms and had some really cool effects. Lightbringer also changes your normal attacks though so
My debug menu is gone I tried F1 doesn't work
Was it there beforehand?
they do
I can't find the debug menu
Try ~ does it do anything?
No
So... i bound a button on debug and i dont know how to un bind it can i get some help with that
I believe the answer is in the pins
@bleak oriole here ya go
its ok i found it
mmk
i didnt realise that was there
What button do I press
