native ice
north bear
#

I am on steam and I don't know what to do to downpatch it

native ice
#

Try verifying the integrity of your game

north bear
#

What?

native ice
#

Go to steam library, right click on hollow knight, go to properties, go to local files, verify the integrity of game files

fair briar
north bear
#

alright

#

gimme a second

#

I've validated the integrity and then I'll go take a screenshot of the main menu

native ice
#

run the installer again

native ice
#

regal junco
#

(when i hold a it wont heal)

#

yes

native ice
#

did you put it in your mods folder with modding api installed?

regal junco
#

ill do that now

#

there?

gloomy coral
#

put it in content/resources/data/managed/mods

#

this is probs in the wrong content/managed/mods location

regal junco
#

i got to data and it showed me all the levels

#

ill get a pic

native ice
#

The mod's folder should be at the top, if not then change the sort by or search for it

regal junco

native ice
#

Yea that looks right

regal junco
#

what do i do next?

native ice
#

Follow the next step, launch the game

It didn't work?

regal junco

native ice
#

I'm not sure then

regal junco
#

yikes

gloomy coral
regal junco
#

yes

shut scaffold
#

can i mod the game without the installer?maybe manually or something

limber egret
#

Just use the installer

shut scaffold
#

i cant

#

it doesnt work

limber egret
#

Screenshot your main menu of hollow knight for me

shut scaffold
#

its the normal menu,nothing different

limber egret
#

Please

shut scaffold
#

ok

#

its just the normal one

limber egret
#

Okay so if you can't get the mod installer working then you'll need to get the modding API. I'm not sure if that's just hosted here or what the link is to it, though. If somebody else can grab it for you, then you'll be able to start. Failing that, I could try to help get the mod installer working for you.

#

You said you got this through steam last time, right?

fair briar
#

what does the installer say

fair briar
#

it must have given an error

limber egret
#

Download this.

limber egret
#

You can find their old messages with the search function

fair briar
#

oh ok i've been gone for longer then i thought then 👀

limber egret
#

Once you have downloaded the above file, go into your downloads folder and drag it to your desktop.

shut scaffold
#

ok

limber egret
#

Don't open it yet though, we need to make sure you don't have the old one still

shut scaffold
#

ok

limber egret
#

LMK when it's on your desktop

#

I'm going to warm up some pizza

shut scaffold
#

ok its ready

limber egret
#

Okay first let's make sure you don't have the old installer you downloaded last time.

#

Wherever you ended up downloading the original one; delete it if you still have it.

shut scaffold
#

opk its the newest one

limber egret
#

Did you delete the one you downloaded the last time you tried?

shut scaffold
#

yea

limber egret
#

Okay, that's a good start

gloomy coral
limber egret
#

Secondly we need to delete your mod installer config files

shut scaffold
#

where is it

gloomy coral
limber egret
#

Follow these first three steps

gloomy coral
#

To reset the Installer

#

Or maybe I misunderstood

limber egret
#

I don't believe they have a mods folder

#

I'm just being thorough

fair briar
#

thats the api

shut scaffold
#

ok im confused

fair briar
#

the bat should do the trick

shut scaffold
#

i dont have a mods folder

fair briar
#

?

#

a bat file is like a exe

#

but simpler

#

just double click it

shut scaffold
#

ok wait a sec

#

there is no vasi.zip thing

limber egret
#

Oh, that's my bad. I thought that .bat file needed to be in mods

#

Ignore the rest of the message, you just want to download the file and run it

shut scaffold
#

ok

#

mod installer 2 still doesnt open

fair briar
#

what error?

shut scaffold
#

it just doesnt open no errors or anything

fair briar
#

you double clicked it and it did nothing right?

shut scaffold
#

yea

gloomy coral
#

Is it on desktop?

shut scaffold
#

yes

gloomy coral
#

Try right clicking and running as admin

fair briar
#

try to restart your pc, run the installer as admin

shut scaffold
fair briar
#

well lets try to install all of it manually i guess

#

is the api somewhere online?

#

or just download daugther of hallownest

shut scaffold
#

wasnt that a mod that makes hornet2 impossible?

fair briar
#

no the skin

#

it has the api pre-installed, tho it will also give you the hornet skin

shut scaffold
#

ok

fair briar
#

wait i think the api might be on the drive

shut scaffold
#

so what next?

#

i dowm-nloaded it

fair briar
#

then place it in the managed? folder

shut scaffold
#

ok

#

enhtire zip file or folder in it

fair briar
#

it will ask you to overwrite something

fair briar
shut scaffold
#

it didnt ask me to overwrite something

fair briar
#

did you get the assembly-Csharp.dll?

shut scaffold
#

i might have moved the wrong thing wait a sec

#

ok

#

now?

fair briar
#

did it replace?

#

if so, run the game

shut scaffold
#

ok

#

there is just the title now,no options to do anything

#

what am i supposed to do

#

title screen is just this

fair briar
#

hmm

#

restart the game

shut scaffold
#

ok

gloomy coral
#

and run this bat file

shut scaffold
#

there is no bat file there

gloomy coral
#

I don't get you?

fair briar
#

download it

#

double click it

#

done

shut scaffold
#

what am i supposed to download?

fair briar
shut scaffold
#

from where

limber egret
#

That message contains the file

fair briar
#

it has a download button down right

shut scaffold
#

ok i didnt see the download button

fair briar
#

discords viewer is good but it has some problems feelspkman

shut scaffold
#

so its supposed to work now?

fair briar
#

for text files i like it

gloomy coral
#

It's better to not have it

#

For anything except plain text

shut scaffold
#

ok its doing the i wont open until you try for 20 times thing,thats a good sign

gloomy coral
#

The .bat?

#

Or the Installer?

shut scaffold
#

game itself

fair briar
#

i am very confused rn

shut scaffold
#

dont worry its normal for me

#

still the same nothing changed

gloomy coral
#

Define same

shut scaffold
#

no opğtions still

#

*options

fair briar
#

verify integrity i guess

gloomy coral
#

Screenshot this

Save files

Press win + r and then paste this

%AppData%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight

shut scaffold
#

ok im in that folder

gloomy coral
#

Screenshot this

shut scaffold
#

screenshot what

gloomy coral
#

folder

fair briar
#

the folder you're in

shut scaffold
#

ok

gloomy coral
#

delete these

#

and from mods folder delete debug mod

shut scaffold
#

ok

gloomy coral
#

also you have controller?

shut scaffold
#

no

gloomy coral
#

ok

#

screenshot mods folder

shut scaffold
#

empty

gloomy coral
#

try opening the game

shut scaffold
#

ok

#

ok menu is here

gloomy coral
#

Screenshot title screen

shut scaffold
#

ok there is a mods option in the settings too

#

thank you guys very much

#

also question,can i just put mods in the mods file and use it lke that?

gloomy coral
#

Yes

#

That's what installer does

#

But you have to make sure you have the correct dependencies installed also

shut scaffold
#

ok

#

do i need anything for debug mod?

ivory aurora
#

Modcommon and that's iirc

shut scaffold
#

ok

ivory aurora
#

you already have modcommon right

shut scaffold
#

yes

#

so i just put dll.s of mods to the mods folder and thats it

fair briar
#

ye

shut scaffold
#

thanks

#

so debug mod breaks the game,are there any other mods like that?

fair briar
#

it does?

#

where did you download it?

shut scaffold
#

from the mods folder

#

it makes the title screen broke

fair briar
#

wierd

worthy gorge
#

Hello

#

I'm trying to use the custom skin mod but whenever i load the game and click on the skin name it does not work

#

does anyone know how to fix this problem?

fair briar
#

make sure that your file structure is: customknight -> skinname -> png's

#

and you have modcommon

worthy gorge
#

It seems like i have the files in the right locations

limber egret
#

Screenshot your image files, including the address bar at the top

worthy gorge
#

when i click the skin i want to use, my character blinks and then it just stays as the default

worthy gorge
limber egret
#

Either post them here or DM if you don't want to

#

I know some people don't like to show their PC username (though I'm not entirely sure why)

#

I suppose if it's you're actual full name that might not be a great idea, actually

fair briar
#

yeah

worthy gorge
#

it doesn't really matter to me

limber egret
#

What's inside that folder?

#

Oh, ty

#

And you have Mod Common, as Ruttie said?

worthy gorge
#

yes i do

#

Do you think some other mods like Hollow point could be messing with it?

fair briar
#

ah

#

hollow point doesn't allow skin usage

#

sadly

#

otherwise the gun will disappear iirc

worthy gorge
#

darn

#

After crashing a couple times it finally decided to work

#

thank you very much

livid tangle

i am having some issues with the Randomiser mod

#

the spawns are all jacked up and i spawn out of bounds

#

i dont have rando rooms installed

real jacinth
#

#

Looks like you're in bounds but missing textures

#

Camera doesn't follow you out of bounds

wheat orchid
#

#

There are 2 google drive links

livid tangle
#

i forced the camera to follow me the ground is there

#

just not on the camera

#

i cant use benchwarp because the pause menu wont show

real jacinth
#

You don't have vasi

#

And get rid of modconsole

wheat orchid
#
  1. Qol failed to load 2. That isn’t the pause menu?
livid tangle
#

k

real jacinth
#

Usually when something says it failed to load....it's a good idea to check that out

livid tangle
#

how do i check that out?

real jacinth
#

Install vasi

wheat orchid
#

Most likely you’re missing a dependency, in this case, Vasi

livid tangle
#

ah i see

wheat orchid
#

It’s a good idea to keep library mods such as modcommon, Vasi, serecore, SFCore, frogcore, and weavercore on (wow this list is getting long)

livid tangle
#

thankyou its working now

dusk folio
#

how would i unmod the game?

real jacinth
#

#

is there a reset all button for the debug mod? Somehow I accidentally increased the nail damage to like 200 or something because I'm one shotting everything and I don't really want to do that, but I also don't know how much to decrease it. Please help?

real jacinth
#

Dmg is shown in the menu on the left

#

Press the dmg decrease button until it's back to normal

solid wharf
#

ok so, whenever i try to manually install a mod into the mod installer, it accepts the file, but it never shows up in the menu or in the game

real jacinth
#

You have to select the dll file. Not a zip

#

And manually added mods will show on the installer if you close and open it

solid wharf
#

got it

#

i will try that

sinful hemlock
#

Do I use my own ip to allow someone to join using multyplayer mod?

rancid crane
#

What folder are mods even supposed to go to?

novel bronze
#

everytime i open modinstaller 2 these two mods are always out of date i don't know how to fix it

real jacinth
#

Click the orange box

novel bronze
#

i did but when i close the installer and re-open it same thing happens

real jacinth
#

Then just leave it

novel bronze
#

but rich presence mod doesn't seems to work in game :(

real jacinth
#

Is that drpc? Did you read the readme for it

#

It has special install instructions

I just completed the game in 4h 15min, but steam didnt give me both the speedrun achievements. I heard mods dont disable achiemevents, and i got the "game completed" achievement, but i dont know why i didnt get the other two. what am i missing?

pliant lantern
#

I've heard of people having bugs with getting achievements, both in vanilla and with mods. I accidentally got one of speedrun achievements while playing Randomizer though, so you definitely can get them while modded.

neon marten

What mods do you have installed?

novel bronze

just the API and the debug mod

pliant lantern
#
  • What version of Hollow Knight are you on, and where did you get it?
  • Did you use Mod Installer?
neon marten
#

Did you get HK from steam or GOG?

#

Or is it a cracked version?

novel bronze
#

will i get into trouble if i say its cracked

neon marten
#

Better question: will you get support if it’s cracked? No.

novel bronze
#

ok sry my b

pliant lantern

sinful hemlock

neon marten
# novel bronze i am so sorry

Next time that you download a cracked version, just remember that the developers have worked hard to make that game. By not paying them you are declining them money for their hard work.

STOP TELLING PEOPLE THEY CAN GET MODS TO WORK ON THEIR PIRATED COPIES

#

Just tell them they can't, FFS

shy cipher
#

I want to revert back to unmoded/vanilla Hollow knight but the modinstaler said something of not finding the path to the hollow knihgt and asked to check it's integraty, then I went around trying to see the problem and not understanding what I should do I just unistaled all the mods I had isntaled. then I tryed again and It still wouldnt do it. I closed it reopened and It is now with a blanck box but a corner were it says manualy.

#

what seems to be my problem here

limber egret
#

Verify integrity of game files in Steam or GoG, then don't open the mod installer again

#

Opening it will mod your game again.

#

(I know the pop-up tells you to open it again but don't. I don't know why it says to do that.)

shy cipher
#

thanks, I´ll try to find verefy integrity on steam then.

limber egret
#

Right click on hollow knight and then click properties

#

I think it's under "local files" but I'm not sure because they changed the layout recently

shy cipher
#

it is in local files indeed

#

it's at 90 percent, a mmt

#

1 file failed the validacion and will now be reaquired

#

I'm from another contry, so thats my best traslacion

limber egret
#

That's worked then

#

That's word for word the English text that comes up

#

So that's good

shy cipher
#

great, I wanted to unmod the game to finaly do patheon of hallownest legit

limber egret
#

Good luck. P5 is real hard

charred hollow
#

how do i find the right file to put the mod installer in

limber egret
#

Mod installer itself can just go on your desktop or whatever

charred hollow
#

ok

limber egret
#

If you mean when it asks you to locate your game files, you can type ?saves here to find it

charred hollow
#

yes but i cant type

limber egret

I'm not sure what that means but here

so uh, you guys know any good choices of making hollow knight skins

#

I'm thinking of making cool hollow knight skin

not recolor, im talking h a i r

it's the same process as a recolor, you just edit the sprites

How does the multiplayer mod and bosses work?

pliant lantern
# sinful hemlock How does the multiplayer mod and bosses work?

No Hollow Knight Multiplayer mods have any form of Synchronized Enemies right currently.
HKMP, which isn't on the installer, is working on getting Bosses to be synchronized, and has a dev build that only works on 3 bosses (and only in GodHome) currently.

Other than that, all Multiplayer mods will lock the gate on any players that don't have the boss defeated yet when any player walks over the trigger zone.

i cant heal with soul

#

healing got disabled somehow

#

i can use the a button for spells

#

but i cant heal

#

(mac)

pliant lantern
#

It's because you opened that Save with a mod, without reading the "ReadMe" for the mod, even though it was in the mod's title

regal junco
#

ok

pliant lantern
#

Look through the pins for the "Hollow Point Fixes" one

regal junco
#

tried that

pliant lantern
#

Tried what?
There's three different methods.

native ice
#

I believe they tried atleast 2 of the three

pliant lantern
#

I don't see anything that indicates that they tried manually fixing the save. It just looks like they tried using the .dll (which, idk if it was ever tested with Mac, so it may not work on Mac for some reason?).

regal junco
#

fixed it by restarting the mod installer

#

😄

gloomy coral
#

Maybe the playerdata value got changed but the game didn't recheck for it so the game played at it's old (wrong) value until the next quitout

#

So @dwarfwoot maybe add in a line in that pin that goes along the lines of "may require loading save 2-3 times for changes to occur"

pliant lantern
gloomy coral
pliant lantern
#

Wouldn't Save+Quitting be part of reloading a save?

#

Open the file, save+quit to menu, then reopen it?

#

I need a reverse-gorbbrain, for when I'm tired and not understanding things.

gloomy coral
native ice
#

I believe they closed the game in between trying, they said they restarted the modinstaller, maybe ask them exactly what they mean?

gloomy coral
#

Restarting mod Installer doesn't really affect mods

#

And definitely can't affect save file values

native ice
#

Which is why I suggest we ask them to clarify exactly what they did

gloomy coral
regal junco
#

i browzed game files

#

verified the integrity of them

#

and the mod installer stopped

#

so i made it work again

#

😄

native ice
#

So you did the fixes, then went back to vanilla, then reinstalled mods?

Hey people, anyone know if there is a way to remove all of the UI elements?
Things like the <Ascend> at the Crossroads chain and the <Rest> at benches?

#

Had a look at debug but it seems to only remove things like the HP bar

fair briar
#

wdym

#

debug can make you invincible, inf jump, inf soul...

zinc slate
#

I mean specifically the ascend prompt here, if there is a way to remove that

#

Cause you can remove the soul meter and masks

#

And the area prompt goes away after a bit

#

But the ascend prompt isnt hidden by that

fair briar
#

it only changes things of the knight, not its surroundings

zinc slate
#

Hence me asking if there is a way to hide it

limber egret
#

You would have to make your own mod for that, one does not currently exist

silent portal
zinc slate
#

Hmmm right. Wonder how hard that is

limber egret
zinc slate
#

Ah thank you!

gloomy coral
#

Also probs wanna remove the light from player to make it less obvious

zinc slate
#

I would do so if I didnt need the Knight visible

#

I might just have to swallow my pride and resign myself to having the ascend prompt visible

limber egret
#

If you're just trying to make the image you could do invisible Knight like above, then just grab the sprite and paste it in

#

Not 100% sure which channel

#

Wait what

#

completely read that wrong

#

on the modinstaller

#

Ah ok i was very confused

tulip nacelle
#

what

#

I searched the steam workshop and found nothing

novel bronze
#

In the pins is a download link to a modinstaller, there are 2 versions, modinstaller and modinstaller 2, modinstaller 2 is for mac iirc, download whatever version you need, run it( not from your downloads folder, drag it onto the desktop) in there are all the mods

tulip nacelle
#

thanks

#

my apologies, I thought development channel was for modders lol

#

yeah there's a sidebar

#

it's just for selecting dll stuff right

you can click on the arrow next to it

so you can navigate trough the dll

Ive seen modcommon in my files, so i think so. And yes, they did work a while ago but after trying to download more and potentially messing something up none of them work anymore, not even the ones that did before

However most of them never worked to begin with

soft wasp
#

does anyone know anything on how to fix not being able to focus? i was using the gun mod and accidentally went on my main save and messed it up

Read the mod's readme

#

Or check pins

soft wasp
#

uhh

#

i checked the readme and non of the pins seem helpful

limber egret
#

There is a message literally about it

#

In the pins

undone vault
#

@soft wasp I think this is it

gloomy coral
#

What did you try?

soft wasp
#

adding the dll file into the mods folder

gloomy coral
#

Did you run the affected save file?

soft wasp
#

yep

gloomy coral
#

Could you send a video of it not working

soft wasp
#

uhh

#

sure

#

lemme record it quickly

#

do i just send it here?

undone vault
#

why not

soft wasp
#

but as you can see, my soul vessel looks weird and i cant focus

gloomy coral
#

Screenshot main menu

soft wasp
#

alright

gloomy coral
#

You don't have the modding API installed

soft wasp
#

i uninstalled it

gloomy coral
#

Without it that mod wont work

soft wasp
#

yeah i don't want it to work anymore, i just wanted to fix my messed up save. so i decided to uninstall all the mods and the api

gloomy coral
#

What

pliant lantern
#

The mod to fix the problem, requires mods to work

#

That will fix the save

soft wasp
#

sorry, say that again

#

i dont understand

gloomy coral
#

hollow point messed up save, this mod fixes save. but the fix mod won't work without the modding api because that's how mods work

soft wasp
#

i got the api again

#

now what?

#

oh wait

gloomy coral
#

run the game with the fix mod installed

soft wasp
#

i think i know

#

thank you so much! it works now

#

do i have to keep the fix mod running now?

#

can i disable it or delete it?

pliant lantern
#

You can delete / disable it now

#

and you can "Go back to Unmodded" if you want

#

Hollow Point just makes a change to your save file itself, which that mod un-does

soft wasp
#

that sadly doesnt work as it apparently cant locate vanilla hk

pliant lantern
#

That can also be fixed if you want to

soft wasp
#

oh, how?

gloomy coral
#

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

soft wasp
#

oh i did that yesterday and it still doesn't work

#

ill try again

#

it said this

#

still says this

#

same thing happened yesterday

gloomy coral
pliant lantern
#

After Verifying Integrity, don't open Mod Installer

soft wasp
#

so my hollow knights vanilla now, right?

pliant lantern
#

Instead, unless you opened Mod Installer again

soft wasp
#

oh

pliant lantern
#

Mod Installer automatically makes it modded whenever you open it

soft wasp
#

actually, i plan on using custom knight

#

so i'll keep it modded

pliant lantern
#

After you use Verify Integrity, you need to rename a file in order to get the "revert to unmodded" button to work

#

you'd need to copy Assembly-CSharp.dll,
then rename the copy Assembly-CSharp.vanilla

soft wasp
#

ah ok

#

that's all the help I need for now, thanks!

How do you use multiplayer mod?

# wheat pulsar How do you use multiplayer mod?

Check the Multiplayer Procedure message in the pins pinknight if you're using the version that's on the Mod Installer, and make sure that you both followed each step.

Personally, I'd recommend using HKMP (https://github.com/Extremelyd1/HKMP) instead, 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.

#

Is there a guide to install the randomiser 3 mode !?

pliant lantern
#

You just need Mod Installer, and then install it

#

?i

dense shuttleBOT
brazen tree
#

i have it but like where do i put it in my mod folder ?

pliant lantern
#

When you install it with Mod Installer, MI will tell you what other mods you need

#

Is there a reason you can't use the installer?

brazen tree
#

dunno

#

I showed you in dm

pliant lantern
#

The current version of Rando3 is on the installer, and it's the easier method to use.
Steam shouldn't give you any issues with it. Just make sure that you use the one from the message I linked ☝️ , and after you download it, you need to move it to you desktop and run it

Hi guys! As someone who's pretty stupid and wants to create their first mod, how would I go about changing the sounds in the game? Would it be simply naming the audio file the same thing or something more?

#

Trying to get the enemizer to work, but haven't had much luck.
Aside from the no-clip setting that comes with it, all of the other options don't seem to do anything.
Is it just broken in the current patch, or am I missing something to get it set up properly?

#

Thought it might be because of item randomizer interfering, but I turned that off for the time being and enimizer still doesn't function.
All the other mods I have are just UI and skins related aside from QoL, so I don't think they'd affect it.

gloomy coral
#

Did you click on the randomize enemy button on the title screen

astral sierra
#

oh!
ah, I guess not ^^;
I suppose I was expecting it to be when you chose a file, or it randomized them in the game from the options.

#

Also for some reason it didn't do anything when I clicked at first from there, had to exit and relaunch
seems to be what I'm looking for, so thank you.

By the way, does it function with item rando on, then?
(I mean, certain rooms might not have skips working properly with the wrong enemies, but aside from that?)

#

hmm... I can generate a different enemizer seed from that start menu... but I still can't seem to launch one with it?

gloomy coral
#

If it lags it is because it needs to load 150+ enemies

#

And yes it does work with normal rando

pliant lantern
#

Fwiw, Enemy Rando has a weird first-time use bug, and you do have to exit and re-launch for the "Randomize Enemies" button to be there. (specifically, you have to go to Options > Mods and toggle "Enemy Randomizer" Off then On; then restart HK)

astral sierra
#

I relaunched it because originally when I clicked on the enemizer from the options it didn't do anything for some reason.
But I haven't gotten any lag, or loading screens outside of the usual mod stuff.
Hm, ok, I'll try that

#

Aha! took a...couple tries, but this one seems to have worked

#

Seems like I needed to force quit it instead of just exiting from the main menu. Either that or it was just coincidence. But I'm actually loading it in now, so thank you both for the help o/

#

Thanks, I hate it xD
Nah but seriously, should cause some good shenanigans.
Thanks again ^w^

@manic monolith probably better to come in here, so as not to clog up the other channel

manic monolith
#

yeah ok

#

so whenever i try to open the mod installer it says are you sure cause it was downloaded from the internet

pliant lantern
#

Did you take the .app file out of the .zip that you downloaded?

manic monolith
#

the one with the blurry screaming thing with small limbs?

pliant lantern
#

The file you downloaded was a .zip, and it had another file inside of it

manic monolith
#

yeah

#

when i clicked the .zip it did that for me

wheat orchid
manic monolith
#

yes

pliant lantern
#

The Mod Installer itself should be on your desktop

#

And this is what you need to do to allow the app the run

manic monolith
#

open from there?

pliant lantern
#

Looks like it

manic monolith
#

so when i do that

#

it says it quit unexpectedly

wheat orchid
#

Maybe try modinstaller 2 or modinstaller.exe?

pliant lantern
#

It shouldn't be exe

manic monolith
wheat orchid
#

Ah

#

Did you put it in your desktop folder

manic monolith
#

its in downloads

wheat orchid
#

Try putting it on your desktop

manic monolith
#

ok

#

and open from desktop or desktop folder?

wheat orchid
#

not good with macs ¯_(ツ)_/¯

pliant lantern
#

Ideally, the app itself should be on the desktop. But it should be fine in a folder on the desktop

manic monolith
#

didnt work :|

pliant lantern
#

Just not in Downloads, because most OSs put extra security on that folder

manic monolith
#

i did it from desktop but it didnt work

gloomy coral
pliant lantern
#

I'm trying to remember where the mod installer 2 log gets saved on Mac

gloomy coral
#

right click on the modinstaller and click on open package contents. then open the execuatble named modinstaller

manic monolith
pliant lantern
gloomy coral
#

nah

#

.app is the correct extension of mac apps

pliant lantern
#

Yeah, but then why would they need to show package contents?

manic monolith
#

i clicked show package contents and clicked contents and it gave me this

gloomy coral
#

and then double click on modinstaller

gloomy coral
#

for some people they need to open, for others it works tamershrug

pliant lantern
#

Anyone know of a good way to have a free/low cost MacOs VM?
I genuinely want to have a lil' one just to better understand the environment.

gloomy coral
#

Buy a macbook smirkrad

manic monolith
#

can i close any of these tabs? also how do i work this thing lol

pliant lantern
#

Amazing that that was the solution

#

I'll have to remember that that can happen

gloomy coral
#

you can close the finder window

manic monolith
gloomy coral
#

the other window I'm not sure about just keep it open

pliant lantern
# manic monolith can i close any of these tabs? also how do i work this thing lol

The tabs stay open, but you can close the installer wherever you're done picking mods.

Click to install any mods that interest you (ideally you want to only do a few "game affecting" mods at a time, to prevent conflicts)

They should automatically get their dependencies (those you can have lots of without worry), like ModCommon, Vasi, and SereCore

#

You may need to click "update" on the API once, as I can't remember if that has been fixed yet or not, but if it keeps asking to update after, then ignore it

#

And there should be an arrow next to each mod name, that gives you a description of what the mod does

manic monolith
#

how do i install a mod?

#

i found randomizer 3 but idk how to install it

dapper egret
#

well you can use the modinstaller in the pins

#

and the location of the mods folder is also in the pins

gloomy coral
dapper egret
#

now for a qustion: my sister is trying to use custom knight but when launching into the game and pausing she sees no skin selection window

#

the mod seems to have loaded fine and there are 2 custom skins in the directory but it doesn't seem to appear

gloomy coral
#

screenshot the directory

dapper egret
#

it's mac, blabla/managed/mods/custom_knight

gloomy coral
#

the "blabla" is the reason for the issue

#

for mac the path is content -> managed -> mods

dapper egret
#

oh really

gloomy coral
#

the mod dlls still go in resources/data/managed/mods tho

dapper egret
#

thank you that fixed it

#

she is now very pleased

manic monolith
#

i clicked that box

#

it just says modding api is installed

gloomy coral
#

i dont get you

manic monolith
#

:|

#

oh wait

#

the checkbox?

#

this look right?

dapper egret
#

yeah so if you launch the game you should have rando installed now

manic monolith
#

ok cool :)

#

do i close the mod page now?

#

or do i keep it open while i play

dapper egret
#

you can close the modinstaller now

manic monolith
#

and terminal?

dapper egret
#

yeah

manic monolith
#

ok thanks

#

should i keep mod installer on my desktop

dapper egret
#

I mean if you want to install/uninstall mods in the future

manic monolith
#

ok

#

any suggestions for enemy randomizer settings?

#

im using enemy randomizer and randomizer 3

#

if randomizer 3 is already randomizing rooms should i turn off room mode setting

#

or is that different

dapper egret
#

that is different

manic monolith
#

ok so i should just leave the settings?

dapper egret
#

leaving settings to default always works

manic monolith
#

ok cool

#

:D

All skins need to be structured exactly like the default one

So, not in .zip folders, and the pngs need to be the only thing in them

Hi guys! What is the mod to have ennemies totally randomized (the one I have currently is that all mob of one kind are the same)

Enemy randomizer

Read the readme. Change your randomization settings

Can someone plz tell me how do I download the AK-47 mod? I saw it in a YT video and I thought it would be funny to try

Operating System, although I assume it's windows, since you used the Windows Mod Installer.

Read the ReadMe of Enemy Randomizer. All ReadMes are pinned if you have an issue opening/finding them.

Hi, im having some issues getting modinstaller2 to work under linux using Hollow knight 1.2.2.1. My game runs fine prior to running modinstaller2 to install the modding api and debug menu but after i install them the game black screens on start up. So far i've tried removing both mods (modding api and debug menu) and my game still blackscreens, i tried opening the game from command line to see if there were any messages i could use to debug but there's nothing that sticks out, the game gets stuck after initializing my controllers.

The Mod Installers only work for CP

Ah ok that's what i thought you were going to say, hadn't read any documentation on it

#

Do you happen to know where i can get the modding api separately? I've tried to use the link from speedruns.com in the tutorial section but it seems the drive link is dead

Are you using 1221 for speedrunning?

novel heart
#

Trying to at least

#

Check #resources for some of the stuff you'll need. There are some specific 1221 mods for speedrunning. The current GDrives are pinned in this channel and #modding-discussion (IDK why the ones on SRC aren't updated tamershrug )

#

The Mods GDrive is sorted by author, so you'll probably want to view it in List mode, and then there should be a folder with the older versions in it
