Why

It

Do

#

This

Rename ._CustomKnight.dll to CustomKnight.dll

native ice May 31, 2021, 4:35 AM

#

Oh also

#

What's that .DS_Store is that supposed to be there?

wheat orchid May 31, 2021, 4:35 AM

#

The new CustomKnight stuff is so strange

#

I have no idea

#

It’s scattered throughout the zip the installer downloads

wild grotto May 31, 2021, 4:35 AM

#

there is a customknight.dll already in there

wheat orchid May 31, 2021, 4:36 AM

#

Then delete the one I told you to rename

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 4:36 AM

@ dandy??

Yea that's what I did too actually I forgot about that

#

Imma see if I can replicate this

oki doki ill try that

it works thank you!

#

yooooo

wheat orchid May 31, 2021, 4:41 AM

#

Currently trying to replicate with installer 1, will try 2 next

#

Yep

native ice May 31, 2021, 4:41 AM

#

Any way I can help?

wheat orchid May 31, 2021, 4:41 AM

#

It created that file again

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

I see why it’s having problems

#

It’s loading that file first because of the name

#

And it’s having problems because it’s not actually a .dll file

#

Some strange 1kb file

native ice May 31, 2021, 4:43 AM

#

huh

wheat orchid May 31, 2021, 4:44 AM

#

Actually 212 bytes with a size of 0 on disk

#

I get whatever this is when opening it as text
Mac OS X 2 ¢ Ô

native ice May 31, 2021, 4:45 AM

#

Wh

#

I'm not very good at technical stuff but, what the hell even

wheat orchid May 31, 2021, 4:46 AM

#

It appears it could be coming from the _MACOSX folder since there’s a file with no extension called ._CustomKnight

#

Yep that’s it

#

Has the same text

#

@brazen pasture there’s been some..... weird CustomKnight problems

#

Just noticed searching through your previous messages you have a modlog pretty much exactly the same as one seen here

native ice May 31, 2021, 4:51 AM

#

I'm just realizing there's been so many people who had this problem that I wasn't able to help because I hadn't realized it was a wide spread issue

wheat orchid May 31, 2021, 4:52 AM

#

Well now this channel became flooded with it

#

So let’s just hope people read the conversation before asking

native ice May 31, 2021, 4:53 AM

#

Or we could get modstaff to put up a pin

wheat orchid May 31, 2021, 4:53 AM

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

It will probably be fixed soon since it’s such a big problem

#

Disabling the ModdingApi loading mods is already a big problem, at least to me, and since CustomKnight is such a common mod, that makes it worse

fair ibex May 31, 2021, 4:54 AM

#

the .DS_Store thing is definitely a mac being weird thing

#

sometimes when i upload folders to google drive it also uploads a file named like that

native ice May 31, 2021, 4:54 AM

#

I got the .DS_Store file on windows

wheat orchid May 31, 2021, 4:54 AM

#

That’s prob because it was compressed on Mac I guess

fair ibex May 31, 2021, 4:54 AM

#

dandy uses a mac afaik, so yeah

wooden igloo May 31, 2021, 4:54 AM

#

Everything mac is making me angry and confused

native ice May 31, 2021, 4:54 AM

#

Makes sense

wheat orchid May 31, 2021, 4:55 AM

#

I’ll compress one without it and test something

#

Also the readme is weird

#

._README(Custom Knight).md is also in the readme folder with the readme

wooden igloo May 31, 2021, 4:57 AM

#

So delete everything with that and mac in the name?

wheat orchid May 31, 2021, 4:57 AM

#

With the same text as the dll

wheat orchid May 31, 2021, 4:57 AM

#

wooden igloo So delete everything with that and mac in the name?

Just the dll is fine

#

Everything else won’t matter

wooden igloo May 31, 2021, 4:58 AM

#

What about .DS_store

native ice May 31, 2021, 4:58 AM

#

What about the MACOSX file?

wooden igloo May 31, 2021, 4:58 AM

#

That is gone

wheat orchid May 31, 2021, 4:58 AM

#

Fine, just takes up space

#

compressed on windows in case anyone wants it

📎 CustomKnight.zip

native ice May 31, 2021, 5:05 AM

#

So that's to download it without the installer?

wheat orchid May 31, 2021, 5:05 AM

#

I guess

leaden flume May 31, 2021, 5:30 AM

#

Wait so can I get a quick rundown on how to make customknight work? do i just delete the _MACOSX file?

#

Cuz everything i do works until i install custom night

native ice May 31, 2021, 5:31 AM

#

go to the mods folder and delete the custom knight dll that starts with ._

leaden flume May 31, 2021, 5:31 AM

#

Aight, 1 sec

#

did it

#

is that it?

native ice May 31, 2021, 5:32 AM

#

should be

leaden flume May 31, 2021, 5:33 AM

wheat orchid May 31, 2021, 5:42 AM

#

wheat orchid compressed on windows in case anyone wants it

this does work when used in mod installer

#

needs to be uploaded to something that's not google drive though since it's so large it gets the "can't scan this for viruses" message

native ice May 31, 2021, 5:43 AM

#

Hey, Someone. A person earlier was on mac, which I'm not familiar with and can't test things on, and had the same problem with CustomKnight. There is no _MACOSX file and deleting the ._Customknight.dll didn't do anything for em @jade mural

#

@wheat orchid

wheat orchid May 31, 2021, 5:46 AM

#

could they screenshot their mods folder

native ice May 31, 2021, 5:47 AM

#

@jade mural

wheat orchid May 31, 2021, 5:47 AM

#

otherwise if it's not a dll file causing it, go to the save files path and delete all files with globalsettings in their names

#

well imma sleep now

#

#

Uh, could someone send me a link to the modding API? ModInstaller2 is telling me it's already installed, but it's very clearly not, so I want to manually install it

#

And I can't find it on the drive

real jacinth May 31, 2021, 6:56 AM

#

Or it is installed and something else is happening

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 6:56 AM

#

I just did a full wipe of my installation, redownloaded the entire game, and opened up modinstaller

#

The first thing it told me was that moddingAPI was outdated

real jacinth May 31, 2021, 6:57 AM

#

So click the orange box

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 6:57 AM

#

I did

#

It didn't do shit

real jacinth May 31, 2021, 6:57 AM

#

I doubt that

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 6:57 AM

#

Oh, I mean it turned from an orange box to a little blue checkmark

#

Didn't actually install the moddingAPI though

real jacinth May 31, 2021, 6:57 AM

#

Then it's installed

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 6:57 AM

#

It super ain't

real jacinth May 31, 2021, 6:58 AM

#

And like I said, there might be something else happening

#

Like you could have 2 games installed on your machine. Or the settings file just needs a reset

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 6:58 AM

#

I did have 2 games installed for a short time, however I've completely uninstalled the other installation and removed the directory

real jacinth May 31, 2021, 6:58 AM

#

But the api is installed somewhere now

native ice May 31, 2021, 6:59 AM

#

toxic beacon It super ain't

When you say this, do you mean that the mod names aren't showing up in the top left?

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 6:59 AM

#

I checked to see if the API got installed to there, but that entire folder still isn't there

#

Yes

real jacinth May 31, 2021, 6:59 AM

#

If you didn't reset the installer, then it's still pointing to the original directory

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 6:59 AM

#

And there's no loading bar on startup

#

Which I haven't changed, I'm still using the original directory

native ice May 31, 2021, 6:59 AM

#

Go to the options menu, is there a "Mods' page?

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 7:00 AM

#

Ok so I'm using ModInstaller2, and there's no options menu

native ice May 31, 2021, 7:00 AM

#

I meant the options menu of the in game main menu

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 7:00 AM

#

I tried using ModInstaller and it crashed with a 'missing url' when trying to install moddingAPI

#

There is, and it's empty

#

Odd

#

Was the API changed recently?

native ice May 31, 2021, 7:01 AM

#

Did you try installing custom knight today?

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 7:01 AM

#

Yes

native ice May 31, 2021, 7:01 AM

#

Okay

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 7:01 AM

#

Multiple times

native ice May 31, 2021, 7:01 AM

#

Go to your mod folder

#

Delete the ._customknight.dll

real jacinth May 31, 2021, 7:01 AM

#

Do you have benchwarp

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 7:01 AM

#

No

#

Aight, done that

native ice May 31, 2021, 7:01 AM

#

Also in the steamapps/common/HollowKnight try deleting a file called "_MACOSX"

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 7:02 AM

#

That one doesn't exist

native ice May 31, 2021, 7:02 AM

#

Okay

#

The .dll you deleted, did it have a "._" at the beginning of it and was there a second customknight.dll without that in there?

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 7:03 AM

#

There were, as well as one without an extension

native ice May 31, 2021, 7:03 AM

#

Okay that should fix it

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 7:03 AM

#

Erm

#

No

native ice May 31, 2021, 7:03 AM

#

It didn't?

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 7:04 AM

#

Trying it once more because modinstaller was open while I deleted it

real jacinth May 31, 2021, 7:04 AM

#

Do this

#

Delete your settings files

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 7:05 AM

#

The moddingapi settings files?

#

Should I then reinstall the mod, or try to launch it

real jacinth May 31, 2021, 7:06 AM

#

And benchwarp and any others that are there

#

No. Just launch the game

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 7:07 AM

#

Done, and no discernable change

neon marten May 31, 2021, 7:07 AM

#

toxic beacon Done, and no discernable change

You have to restart the game

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 7:08 AM

#

I didn't have the game open while I was deleting those

real jacinth May 31, 2021, 7:08 AM

#

You cant make changes with the game open

#

And you should reset the installer

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 7:08 AM

@real jacinth , today I learned that a recent Custom Knight update seems to have been causing this problem where the "Mods" page in the main menu option menu is there but completely blank and the game acts vanilla. Someone 𓌬 looked into it and found that it could be fixed by deleting a duplicate customknight.dll that started with "._". We had a long conversation about it earlier, that started around here

real jacinth May 31, 2021, 7:10 AM

#

Cool. But this person said they just tried that and nothing changed

#

So obviously it's something different

native ice May 31, 2021, 7:11 AM

#

Was mostly letting you know cause it's been messing with a lot of people

real jacinth May 31, 2021, 7:11 AM

#

Since they also said they installed the game multiple times and didn't change installer directory

native ice May 31, 2021, 7:11 AM

#

@toxic beacon are you on mac btw?

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 7:11 AM

#

Win10

native ice May 31, 2021, 7:11 AM

#

Ah

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 7:12 AM

#

I just deleted the modinstaller folder in appdata, opened up ModInstaller 1, then set the directory to the correct one

#

Still no change

real jacinth May 31, 2021, 7:13 AM

#

Are you sure it's the correct one? Did you check the files at that location? And is this a second game install you're launching in addition to a vanilla one?

#

Some screenshots would also be helpful

toxic beacon May 31, 2021, 7:14 AM

#

I only have one installation, on my F: drive

#

Due to a steam bug that misplaced my installed games index, I had for a brief time had one installation under F: and one under E:

#

I then deleted the one under E: after the mod installers were giving me trouble with it, only to find that the one in F: was also reverted to vanilla

#

I'm currently reinstalling hollow knight again

#

When that's done, I'll update you, and provide screenshots of my hollow knight directory, mods folder, and saves folder

If you're on steam, I think verifying the integrity of game files will do that

strong path May 31, 2021, 7:52 AM

#

i already did that but it do nothing

fair briar May 31, 2021, 7:54 AM

#

well the only way is to delete the "Hollow Knight" folder in "Common", and reinstall, but that seems like a waste of time.

native ice May 31, 2021, 7:54 AM

#

And you have to clear all your non save files in the locallow file too

fair briar May 31, 2021, 7:54 AM

#

no

#

you dont have to

native ice May 31, 2021, 7:54 AM

#

You don't?

fair briar May 31, 2021, 7:55 AM

#

mods use those files

#

so those are not "dirt"

native ice May 31, 2021, 7:55 AM

#

Well they said "delete all the files that are not in the base game"

#

Figured they'd want to be thorough

fair briar May 31, 2021, 7:56 AM

#

well then you can but its not really worth the trouble because you'd need to configure your mods again when you want them again

strong path May 31, 2021, 7:57 AM

#

fair briar so those are not "dirt"

i use this world because there are just a few files remaining after i delete all the modded content in my game ,but yes ,it's not "dirt"

Using Steam's "Verify Integrity" will make you game act as Vanilla. It will revert the only file that is actually changed from the game to make mods work (which is the Assembly-CSharp file, that the ModdingAPI replaces).

When you install mods, there are .dll files added to a \Mods folder, and Readme files added to one of the root \Hollow Knight folder.

When you run mods, each mod also adds a global.settings file to the folder that your Saves are stored in. Some mods have additional txt/json files for other settings or features. Finally, some mods permanently alter Save Files, and the only way to revert those changes is to use a method of editing the save file.

fair briar May 31, 2021, 8:04 AM

#

ah yes DrawfWoot

pliant lantern May 31, 2021, 8:05 AM

#

As stated, there's not really any good reason to purge all of the mod-related files normally. If you want vanilla, just use Verify Integrity.

fair briar May 31, 2021, 8:05 AM

#

But yeah the "Verify integrity" option checks which files have changed, or deleted not added

pliant lantern May 31, 2021, 8:06 AM

fair briar ah yes DrawfWoot

There are. Assembly-CSharp-first pass.dll is modded. That means that Assembly-CSharp.dll is probably also modded.

haughty quiver May 31, 2021, 10:06 AM

When I set and deploy a bench using benchwarp, rarely a bench comes up, but most of the time no bench appears, and when I warp, I just start lying on the ground

#

Is this normal?

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 10:08 AM

#

Could you record it happening?

haughty quiver May 31, 2021, 10:09 AM

#

It might take a while, but sure

native ice May 31, 2021, 10:09 AM

#

I believe deploy sets your spawn wherever you are

#

or at least a warp point

haughty quiver May 31, 2021, 10:12 AM

It does

ok but i remove all the files of the mod installer ,it will not impact my game

haughty quiver May 31, 2021, 10:15 AM

#

When you set and deploy, usually a bench appears where you deployed right?

#

There's bench style options too for that

#

But in my case, no bench appears

native ice May 31, 2021, 10:16 AM

#

I don't think so, I don't think benchwarp is meant to actually create a bench, just a spawn point. That's probably beyond the capabilities, and the point, of the mod.

novel bronze May 31, 2021, 10:17 AM

Wtf

fair briar May 31, 2021, 10:17 AM

haughty quiver But in my case, no bench appears

try to set by option the no preload and short preload off

It's not supposed to?

haughty quiver May 31, 2021, 10:17 AM

then restart the game

native ice May 31, 2021, 10:18 AM

haughty quiver But sometimes the bench appears for me

It appears when you warp or when you deploy?

haughty quiver May 31, 2021, 10:18 AM

#

fair briar then restart the game

Did that too

native ice May 31, 2021, 10:18 AM

#

Cause if it's when you warp then it's probably to an already existing bench, if it's when you deploy then I'm wrong

haughty quiver May 31, 2021, 10:18 AM

When I deploy, sometimes the bench appears

But most of the time nothing

This is not the file path that you were given before. It looked like the custom Knight you have downloaded has extra files with it

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 1:03 PM

#

oh

limber egret May 31, 2021, 1:03 PM

Take the file called "Lapis Lightning by Biscuit" and move it to the location in the example given before.

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 1:04 PM

when i go contents then data then managed

limber egret May 31, 2021, 1:04 PM

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 1:04 PM

theres nothing under managed

However you make folders on a Mac

#

Right click -> new folder?

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 1:05 PM

i see

#

so why am i making a new folder?

limber egret May 31, 2021, 1:06 PM

#

Because you need to put the files in the correct place

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 1:06 PM

#

so i should make a folder under contents called Managed?

limber egret May 31, 2021, 1:06 PM

#

The mod installer makes these for Windows, but on Mac it doesn't always do so

#

Yep

#

Then inside that another called mods, then inside that one called customknight

#

Then inside that put your lapis lightning folder

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 1:08 PM

#

limber egret Then inside that another called mods, then inside that one called customknight

no capital letters?

limber egret May 31, 2021, 1:08 PM

That shouldn't matter but let's go with no for now

cause thats a lot of files

#

also would that help with the issue of none of my mods working?

flint snow May 31, 2021, 1:34 PM

#

so uh

#

i got a bunch of mods installed

#

and when i enter the mantis arena, everything goes black

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 1:37 PM

#

@redfrog do you know about the new custom knight?

#

Did it change the path of skins on Mac?

#

Cuz from teh looks of it they have a custom knight in both content/resources/data/managed/mods and contents/managed/mods

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 1:42 PM

#

i made managed/mods under contents

#

they werent there originally

#

welllppp

#

mods are broken :|

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 2:05 PM

#

Wdym?

#

Screenshot main menu

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 2:06 PM

#

manic monolith

From this mod folder. Delete all the pngs like dreamnail PNG. And then re-screenshot

#

ONLY pngs

#

Why did that caps

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 2:06 PM

#

wait why delete pngs?

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 2:06 PM

#

Cuz they don't do anything there

#

Like don't delete anything from the custom knight folder

#

Only pngs in mods folder

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 2:07 PM

#

well theres still the problem that when i open hollow knight theres nothing in the top left indicating that any mods are on

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 2:09 PM

#

I wanna seee everything in mods folder

#

And deleting pngs will make it more clear what's in the mods folder

#

Delete blue keep red stuff

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 2:09 PM

#

...

#

but if i do that can i never have the default skin again

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 2:10 PM

#

You could always download it again

#

It's not a big deal

#

First let it work

#

Then the other things can be figured out

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 2:11 PM

#

huhhh

#

wait soooo

#

i dont see how this will help if the mod isnt working

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 2:13 PM

#

Pngs don't do anything there

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 2:13 PM

#

huh? so i'd still have the default skin, theyre just useless?

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 2:14 PM

#

Why don't you trust me grubsad

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 2:14 PM

#

i dont trust myself so im trying to clarify more

haughty quiver May 31, 2021, 2:14 PM

#

jinnsmile

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 2:14 PM

#

In managed/mods pngs don't and can't do anything

#

In managed/mods/custom knight it can

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 2:15 PM

#

ok

#

how do i bulk delete the pngs

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 2:15 PM

#

So stuff in managed/mods that's not .dlls is just clutter and making it difficult to find out what wrong

#

Hold command and drag

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 2:17 PM

#

ok i feel uncomfortable with this but i did it lol

#

i feel like imma mess something up

#

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 2:18 PM

#

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

#

And then open modinstaller and download the modding API

#

Then open game and screenshot main menu

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 2:19 PM

#

i have modding api

#

i think

#

im pretty sure it installed modding api automatically because i got customknight

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 2:19 PM

#

Umm

#

Just verify integrity and redownload it

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 2:20 PM

#

it said 1 file failed to validate and will be reaquired

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 2:20 PM

#

So now open Installer and redownload the modding api

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 2:20 PM

#

manic monolith it said 1 file failed to validate and will be reaquired

This means it worked btw

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 2:20 PM

#

its ok that a file failed to validate?

#

it says modding api is out of date

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 2:21 PM

#

Click on the orange box

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 2:22 PM

#

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 2:22 PM

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 2:23 PM

#

I think some mods don’t work well with controller

cold prawn May 31, 2021, 3:49 PM

#

Did we ever find a a way to get mods working again since there not showing up in game or working

real jacinth May 31, 2021, 3:49 PM

#

mods work just fine

#

you're going to have to describe what you're seeing more

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 3:49 PM

real jacinth mods work just fine

Not for me 😔

cold prawn May 31, 2021, 3:49 PM

Give me a second I’m loading up my game

novel bronze May 31, 2021, 3:50 PM

As soon as the game starts the controller is connected but doesn't work

cold prawn May 31, 2021, 3:51 PM

#

This is what I’m seeing when I load game up

real jacinth May 31, 2021, 3:51 PM

#

then you'll have to use either steam controller support in big picture mode, or use a controller to keyboard mapping program like Joy2key

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 3:51 PM

#

Mods folder might not have all ur mods in it

real jacinth May 31, 2021, 3:51 PM

@cold prawn

pay attention to the "benchwarp" fix part of this message

if this doesn't work, then if you've installed customknight, you'll have to go to your mods folder and get rid of the extra one that's there

cold prawn May 31, 2021, 3:53 PM

It’s probably custom knight since it said it needed a update so I updated it then the mods stopped working

real jacinth May 31, 2021, 3:54 PM

#

have you tried updating it again today

cold prawn May 31, 2021, 3:54 PM

#

No this is going to be my first time opening mod installer today

real jacinth May 31, 2021, 3:54 PM

so try that first

cold prawn May 31, 2021, 3:54 PM

#

That’s what I’m doing

real jacinth May 31, 2021, 3:54 PM

#

a fix for this with customknight was added to the installer

#

or will be soon

cold prawn May 31, 2021, 3:54 PM

#

Oh ok

real jacinth May 31, 2021, 3:55 PM

if it doesn't ask you to update customknight, then go to your mods folder and delete the customknight dll that has "._" in front of it

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 4:26 PM

pliant lantern May 31, 2021, 4:27 PM

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 4:29 PM

#

pliant lantern Did install the mods your wanted with mod installer?

Yes but the API itself isn't working so I thought it had something to do with mods so Iasked him to yeet it

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 4:31 PM

sooo what should i do? re-install the mods?

brazen pasture May 31, 2021, 4:33 PM

See if your mods directory has any hidden files

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 4:33 PM

You mods folder is empty, global settings files are yeeted. But Mods option shows up in in-game settings so API exist. Idk what's wrong

brazen pasture May 31, 2021, 4:33 PM

#

A busted customknight updates' been causing this issue

pliant lantern May 31, 2021, 4:34 PM

What is indicating that the API isn't working?

#

It seems to be working fine

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 4:34 PM

#archived-modding-help message

No top left

Lol that happened with me and debug mod

Also this

brazen pasture May 31, 2021, 4:36 PM

manic monolith soooo is there any known fix to this bug that customknight is causing?

Simplest way is to delete mods directory and install other mods only

manic monolith May 31, 2021, 4:36 PM

brazen pasture May 31, 2021, 4:36 PM

Manually installing the dll should be fine

DLL?

gloomy coral May 31, 2021, 4:38 PM

@brazen pasture if you do look at the charm issue, Would you consider changing the Mac path for the skins. Currently for Mac its content/managed/mods while the normal mods are content/resources/data/managed/mods which imo doesn't make sense
