Can anyone help?

real jacinth

proud hinge

not done yet

novel bronze
#

:c

#

i lose my grimm skin

real jacinth
#

the installer hasn't changed

#

nor will it

proud hinge
#

they're talking about updating the installer for the latest game version

real jacinth
#

nope. not the installer

#

the API

novel bronze
real jacinth
#

the loading bar is supposed to be there

novel bronze
#

I know, but it’s not loading

#

It stopped at the end

real jacinth
#

did you leave your controller unplugged

novel bronze
#

Yes

real jacinth
#

exactly what you did. what mods you have. screenshots of installer, etc

#

did your 1432 patch open just fine without mods

gritty sapphire
#

hi, can you use skins on patch 1221 ?

real jacinth
novel bronze
real jacinth
gritty sapphire
#

oh

real jacinth
#

the format of the skin sheets is different

#

so there really aren't any

#

and the mod needed is custom made

#

and I'm not sure where it is

gritty sapphire
#

its ok, thanks for the info. sorry for interrupting

hybrid bane
real jacinth
#

reset your installer

#

instructions are in pins

hybrid bane
#

oki

novel bronze
real jacinth
#

so you didn't try it without mods

#

after you turned on the beta

novel bronze
#

yeah

real jacinth
#

well.... first bit of advice.... don't make a shit soup out of your game by adding 100 mods at once

near venture
#

So I have too many mods enabled right now to go through one by one, but does rando 3 with all settings have a left dash and a right dash cuz I'm only able to dash right right now

real jacinth
#

yes

near venture
#

There are two items for each direction?

novel bronze
real jacinth
#

dash and claw are split

near venture
#

O h

copper kraken
#

anyway to fix the "install the latest version of your game" thing?

real jacinth
#

and nail is cursed

near venture
#

So that's what the setting was

#

Decided not to curse the nail

real jacinth
#

probably good choice

#

I've been posting here for like 2 hours and no one has really helped very much
Here is my last post:
so i have the same issue dust has and I followed the pin. when i try to verify the integrity of the files, I get the error message: "2 files failed to validate and will be reaquired". Then, as per the pin I try to open the mod installer but I get this message

#

could someone help me?

#

please?

real jacinth
#

first pin

novel bronze
#

i tried that

#

twice

real jacinth
#

you need to change your patch to beta branch

wheat orchid
#

then you didn't do it right

real jacinth
#

^

#

try it moar better

novel bronze
#

well so i went through the stuff and deleted the files I needed to

wheat orchid
novel bronze
#

then went to steam

real jacinth
#

yeah, my b

#

in the beta branch drop down

novel bronze
#

and tried to verify the integrity of the files

#

where be that?

real jacinth

?pins

dense shuttleBOT
real jacinth
#

first pin

#

again

wheat orchid
#

the instructions mention it.....

novel bronze
#

i am crying from stress
THE MOD INSTALLER ISNT WORKING AGAIN

wheat orchid
#

did your game update

#

first pin

novel bronze
#

I UNINSTALLED SOME MODS AND THE GAME WORKED AGAIN, BUT NOW ITS THE ERROR MESSAGE AGAIN

real jacinth
#

yelling is fun

wheat orchid
#

which error message

novel bronze
#

THIS ONE

real jacinth
#

so do the fix again

#

is the error text exactly the same?

novel bronze
#

yes

real jacinth
#

the matching element one?

#

or is it a different text

novel bronze
#

same one

real jacinth
#

so do the same process

novel bronze
#

i just want to point out how well handled this is, ive had so many problems and havent had to ask anything it was already answered

novel bronze
#

Hey guys what does the hkmote mod do ?

gloomy coral
#

When you press a number key, it plays a animation

#

So you can communicate with each other in mutiplayer

novel bronze
#

Okay thank you very much

stiff yew
#

Sooooo I literally bought the game today on steam. If I wanted to do mods would I have to revert back to the old ver, then delete the assembly-csharp files and use the verify integrity option to reinstall it before downloading the Modding API or should I download that first?

gloomy coral
#

What

#

Just use beta to go back to the old version

#

Open Installer

#

Download mods

#

Enjoy

novel bronze
#

anyone had a problem when you try to run the mod installer is says this installer requires the most recent stable version to run i tried to check the pins but didn't find anything relevant

dense shuttleBOT
native ice
#

very first one

novel bronze
#

thanks

scenic perch
#

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong with the co-op mod

#

I set the game back the old version, before the update yesterday, but I can't see the person who's connecting to me

real jacinth
#

procedure for that is in pins

near venture
#

Soft locked myself by sitting on a glitched bench in ancient basin (the stand and bench were present at the same time and I couldn't buy it)
How do I modify my savefile to change which bench I'm sitting at?

native ice
near venture
#

The esc menu is not accessible once booting into the save so benchwarp won't work but I'll look more into the debug thing

native ice
#

mm debug uses pause menu too

real jacinth
#

not accessible how

#

do you have moresaves on

near venture
#

I don't have moresaves no

real jacinth
#

current bench is in the save files.

#

pins have save editing info

plush mulch
#

Can someone help me ? Whenever I run the Mod Installer this message appears. Does anyone know how to fix it? And my Hollow Knight is up to date

vernal rain
#

?pins

dense shuttleBOT
near venture
#

I'll change it from false to true to see if it fixes it

#

Nope

scenic perch
#

Update, it's still not working

#

I cannot see my friend

#

Did the thing with hamachi, I'm definitely hosting and we're both connected on my ip

real jacinth
#

then you'll have to provide screenshots

#

one from each person's game with the top left and top right visible while paused

#

and hamachi

scenic perch
#

Gimme a sec

#

Here's their screen

#

Wait

#

Gotta censor the ip

real jacinth
#

why

#

it's a vpn ip

scenic perch
#

Do I not have to?

real jacinth
#

nobody can connect to it

scenic perch
#

Ohhh

#

That's useful

#

This one's mine

real jacinth
#

well there's already an issue. you said you're hosting right?

scenic perch
#

Yeah

#

I'm hosting

real jacinth
#

both players have server mod

#

that's wrong

scenic perch
#

Ohh

near venture
#

Fixed it by changing these two parameters into another save's location

#

The bench will forever be borked however

real jacinth
#

it's not that great of a bench anyways

barren crater
#

i didn't know that modinstaller wasn't compatible with the new version and i opened it up
now, my game crashes every time i try to open it :,)
does anyone havve a fix?

o

scenic perch
#

Tried again after uninstalling server mod on their side, still isn't working

real jacinth

need to screenshot hamachi still

I have fixed the bug where you couldn't save & quit on new saves

scenic perch
minor fable

#

Theirs

#

Same problem with each, I think, but idk what it means

real jacinth
#

well, it means you're not actually connected

bitter heart
#

This keeps happening, someone knows how to help me with this problem? :/

real jacinth
#

?pins

dense shuttleBOT
scenic perch
#

That would definitely be a problem, yes

#

OH

bitter heart
scenic perch
#

Assuming this is because I just got hamachi today for this purpose and haven't set it up yet?

slender willow
#

I can't instal the modinstaller it says that I need the most recent update of my game but im already at the latest version

real jacinth
#

?pins

dense shuttleBOT
real jacinth
#

could also try turning the hamachi server off and on again

vernal rain
slender willow
#

alright thank you imma try

real jacinth
#

but not being connected in hamachi is 100% the problem. resolve that error and you should be fine

scenic perch
#

Gotcha

#

I'll try troubleshooting from that search result

#

Thank you!

bitter heart
#

How i get this code?

static field
#

Hm so basically i cant use the mod installer until the creator makes it compatible with the latest update

real jacinth
#

you don't need a code

#

you just change the dropdown to what you did. that's it

bitter heart
#

Oh...

#

Ok

#

Ty

real jacinth
#

the code field is only for if there's a non-public version or something that the devs want to restrict access to with codes

native osprey
#

hey just the launcher mod already works

static field
#

Oh ok

#

If i put it back to there, it wont mess with anything save things right?

real jacinth
#

no

native osprey
#

oh no

static field
#

Alr thanks

scenic perch
#

It says the peer's vpn domain's tap device is down

#

Whatever that means

#

Tried searching for a solution, but most are unresolved forum posts or they redirect me to nord vpn for some reason

#

WAIT WE GOT IT WORKING

#

No, wait

#

It was working for all of 30 seconds

#

Same problem as before, even after restarting basically everything, so it's definitely whatever a tap device is

vestal hamlet
#

Ok so like

#

How do I get mods working on current patch

scenic perch
#

You don't, I think

#

You have to go back to the previous patch

restive pike
#

Where is the mod app located in folders

#

I closed it and don't wanna reinstall

vernal rain
#

downloads probably

restive pike
#

That's where the installer is, not the app

#

Unless I'm wrong lemme double check

#

Yeah it's just the installer

native ice
#

Modmanager and modinstaller are the same thing

restive pike
#

Oh

#

Cool

Thanks

In your save files path delete all files with globalsettings in their names

manic monolith
#

done

wheat orchid
#

Try launching the game again

manic monolith
#

didnt work. it may have something to do with the new update being non compatible for mac

#

i did set it back to 1.4.3.2 tho

minor fable
#

did you reinstall the modding api

high gyro
#

i copied and pasted my hollow knight data folder for 1432 (with all my old mods) to a new folder so i could have a seperate install of that and also install the beta without downpatching again. i added the exe, and the text file but when i went to open the exe as i would for 1221, this happened

#

1221 works just fine

minor fable
#

do you have UnityPlayer.dll

high gyro
#

nope. and i oculdnt find it in my 1221 install to copy paste

#

im just downpatching through steam to old cp

minor fable
#

idk downpatch to 1432 yeah

#

itll grab unityplayer

high gyro
#

thanks

manic monolith
slim mountain
#

Should I update it too?
I am using windows

unborn warren
#

The recent update is incompatible with the current version of the modding api.

craggy herald
#

ok so basically i changed my mod version so that i could use mods since hk just updated and this heppened to me the first time i got the mod installer as well. this pops up once i open the mod installer and ive tried the fixes in pins but they didnt work, they didnt work last time either. last time somebody gave me a download that fixed this, does anybody know what im talking about?

#

i dont think its in pins either

#

so basically when i would type in the thing in pins to find the mods folder so i could delete it it just opens a bing search

novel bronze
#

sorry guys but can someone please send me the link to download modinstaller2?...

manic monolith
#

i didnt know there were 2

novel bronze
#

ho...sad np tx ^^

real jacinth
#

Check the pins

real jacinth
unborn warren
#

I think you just need to wait till they update the mod installer to work with current versions.

craggy herald
# real jacinth What are you trying to install

i have the mod installer already downloaded and i just switched hk versions so i can fight pale prince and it redownloaded after i changed versions and now has that error message when it opens

slim mountain
#

So we all can do is wait for modders to update?

west bane
#

You can compile it. Skips the wait

real jacinth
slim mountain
#

Alright

slate aspen
#

So I down patched my HK to 1.4 yesterday after the update and the mods worked up until a little bit ago.Now when I load up the game, the main menu is glitched, the mods don't show up in the top left, and I can't start any game saves. I re-updated back to 1.5 and the game worked fine, but of course with no mods. Any help would be great.

novel bronze
#

wheres the link to the latest version for the mod installer?

#

uh
the game just got a new update i dont think the latest version is gonna be out so soon

#

oh

umbral stone
#

someone help pls

novel bronze
#

im pretty new mear im just a bit confused

umbral stone
#

when i try opening h it gives me a red exclamation mark then hk doesnt open

#

and i dont have any outdated mods

#

any help?

astral sierra
#

problem is HK itself is too up to date.
Check the top pin, you need to roll it back to 1.4.3.2 to use mods. Shows you how there

umbral stone
#

wait how do i do that?

#

ohh sorry i see

astral sierra
#

👍

stone light
#

so if you have mac, you cant go back to the earlier hollow knight version after the update, I'll just have to wait for the updated Api?

umbral stone
#

im still abit confused

#

i dont know how to force steam to keep the previous version @astral sierra

#

nvm im fucking dumb again

#

my bad

stone light
#

me too lol

native ice
high gyro
#

can there be a new mod installer completely for new cp? i like having old cp mod installer

#

also, when my game is paused, things still move, though a lot slower. its therefor possible for me to take damage while paused. the mods i currently have are debug, custom knight, benchwarp, qol, and a super special hunthussie mod,but the issue happened without the hunthussie mod too

native ice
#

I think debug mod can make it so the game moves faster or somethin, could that be the problem?

high gyro
#

how would i check that\

wheat orchid
#

The console at the bottoms right

manic monolith
#

whats cp

wheat orchid
#

Look for anything to do with timescale

#

Current patch

high gyro
#

kk

manic monolith
#

ok

wheat orchid
#

Ex: mods don’t work on cp anymore since it updated

#

You need to downpatch/switch beta through steam

manic monolith
#

im still having the problem with hk opening but not loading in

#

it stays a black screen

slim mountain
#

Sad noises

#

I think I'll just disable mods for now

#

Getting a headache is not worthy

manic monolith
#

idk if its a problem with mods or not though

slate aspen
#

When I load up my HK the save files wont appear, the mods don't show up in the top left, but there's still a 'Mods' section in 'Options'. So it's like the mods are there but they're messing up the menu. I downgraded to patch 1.4, interestingly when i go back to 1.5 the game works fine, but with no mods of course. I tried reinstalling the mod installer, but no luck. Help please

real jacinth

manic monolith
#

@real jacinth is that for me or @slate aspen

real jacinth
#

not you

manic monolith
#

ok

#

It almost seems that I'm gonna have to wait for the modding API to be compatible with version 1.5

patent hawk
#

So recently, I went to go play modded, and i only installed bench warp and CustomKnight, and it worked for like, 2-3 sessions, but today I went to go launch my game, and it just won't open, I was wondering if anyone had a fix for that

unborn warren
#

Game updated. You have to opt in to an older version

patent hawk
#

ahhhh ok

unborn warren
#

Just got to the steam and go to the games beta. You should find the older version

patent hawk
#

yeah, its there, thanks

unborn warren
#

No problem

real jacinth
#

like this

craggy herald
#

ok i have pale prince on is it supposed to automatically apply or can i turn it on somewhere

#

i am not very good at this stuff

#

but its still pv

#

also is qol the mod that makes it so you can do pop multiple times

real jacinth
#

you don't have modcommon

craggy herald
#

that makes sense i hit revert back to unmodded and enabled those two

native osprey
#

does it works now?

cyan salmon
#

Can anyone help me with this? I reinstalled Hollow Knight cause the mod installer was being wonky. Now this error message pops up :/

real jacinth
#

you need to reset your installer

#

instructions in pins

cyan salmon
#

thank you :D

twilit rune
#

So uh the game had an update and I kinda just wanted to know how that was gonna affect my mods

#

mainly stuff like the randomizer and randomizer map mods

real jacinth
#

?pins

dense shuttleBOT
twilit rune
#

so yeah the modding.api updated, but now the game crashes when I open it

real jacinth
#

no

#

you have that inverted

twilit rune
#

I don't really understand what you mean

real jacinth
#

the game updated

#

api has not

#

there is no api for the new patch

twilit rune
#

Yeah I got that update and then checked the modinstaller

pliant gorge
#

do you know how lng till it is out @real jacinth

real jacinth
#

when it's finished

pliant gorge
#

thank you

real jacinth
#

yes. so like first pin says, if you want to use mods, you have to revert to 1432

#

b/c an API exists for that

twilit rune
#

I mean it showed out of date when i looked at the ModdingAPI in the mod installer and I usually assume that means I can update it in the mod installer

#

But it's not out from what I underdtanding here

real jacinth
#

2 separate things

#

you need to not be on the new game patch

#

and if it says there's an update for your current api, you should update it

twilit rune
#

I did update it

#

I had assumed that was the update for the patch

real jacinth
#

no

#

it is not

twilit rune
#

ok

real jacinth
#

you just had an outdated one for 1432

twilit rune
#

I see

#

So what would i do when the new one comes out would just be an update I do in the modinstaller

real jacinth
#

correct

twilit rune
#

ok

#

thanks for the help

real jacinth
#

there are also updates happening to the installer that will be able to see what patch you have

#

and give you the right stuff

twilit rune
#

ok

misty aurora
#

I deleted the mod installer and all the mod files and now my game doesn't launch and crashes (on Mac, Steam)

#

This is what is looks like now

#

I have also validated the steam files and that doesn't work either

native ice
#

Try downpatching to 1.4.3.2, instructions are in the pins

misty aurora
#

I downpatched already

native ice
#

Was it working before you removed mods and on 1.4.3.2?

misty aurora
#

yes

native ice
#

And does it give you a crash error?

misty aurora
#

no the screen is black and the application is not responding and it stays like that

native ice
#

Hmm, I think someone was having a similar problem. Not sure if they fixed it

misty aurora
#

I'm thinking I might have to reinstall steam but then I lose all my game progress

Hi, I'm new, someone knows how to install mods with the pirated version

is there a way to go back to a previous version of the game?

Good evening. I'm trying to set up a MultiWorld HK game for my first time ever. The instructions on GitHub in step 5 ask me to edit the MultiWorldMod.GlobalSettings.json file to point to the server's IP address. What is this IP address? What is this server?

wheat orchid
#

Are you hosting a private server? Iirc it has instructions for how to join some default server

runic owl
#

I am not. Where are these instructions for the default server?

native ice
runic owl
#

Ahhhh, that makes sense.

wheat orchid
#

Can you link the GitHub repo? Can’t find it atm

runic owl
wheat orchid
#

Ok, must have been thinking of something else with a default server

real jacinth
#

it's in the readme

runic owl
#

No worries. I've used Hamachi before so thankfully I'm familiar enough with it. (Played CubeWorld Alpha with a friend lmao)

real jacinth
runic owl
#

What readme did you find that in? I'm not seeing it (but also, thank you!)

real jacinth
#

the readme on the github

#

you linked a very very old multiworld

#

from 2 years ago

runic owl
#

This is different than what I was looking at. Hmm. I have some reading to do.

wheat orchid
#

Woah that’s some big differences

real jacinth
#

lol

#

"this commit is different"

misty aurora
#

Ok, if I uninstall hollowknight on steam and then I delete the hollowknight file in application support, when I download it on steam again, will it be completely new?

wheat orchid
#

Yes?

#

Why are you doing this?

misty aurora
#

Look above

wheat orchid
#

Why would you delete the stuff in application support if you want your save files though

misty aurora
#

I copied them in a separate folder so I can just copy paste

wheat orchid
#

But why would you delete or move them in the first place

#

They have nothing to do with the game files

misty aurora
#

I think my game is just corrupted then

wheat orchid
#

Did you try verifying the game’s files through steam

misty aurora
#

yes

wheat orchid
#

And you didn’t open mod installer afterwards?

misty aurora
#

it said 100% verified

#

I deleted the whole thing

wheat orchid
#

Deleted what?

misty aurora
#

mod installer and the randomiser mod files and modding api

wheat orchid
#

After or before verifying

misty aurora
#

after

wheat orchid
#

What have you done between then and now

misty aurora
#

tried to open the game, tried verifying again, reinstalled steam, reinstalled hollowknight, made a backup, copied game files,

wheat orchid
#

Try doing the reverse of what you did to get to 1.4.3.2

#

Then see if hollow knight works

misty aurora
#

so download the update

wheat orchid
#

Yes

#

Also did launching hk before installing the ModdingApi after going back to 1.4.3.2 work?

misty aurora
#

The updated version did not open but the game worked perfectly fine on 1.4.3.2 with the mod installler

wheat orchid
#

What operating system are you on and is your device 32 bit or 64 bit?

novel bronze
#

minor problem but i feel like this chat can help
i wanna change my hollow knights icon to this since i renamed it zoteboat, anyone know how to do that?

wheat orchid
#

Renamed what file?

misty aurora
#

MacOS Mojave, not sure about whether it is 32 or 64

novel bronze
wheat orchid
wheat orchid
misty aurora
#

ok

misty aurora
#

1.4.3.2: Screen black, rainbow spinning wheel, application not responding

wheat orchid
#

I’m thinking team Cherry might have messed something up

native ice
misty aurora
#

Modinstaller has same result as 1.4.3.2, my friends have dowwpatched and it works for them but they never used mods unlike me.

Were they on Mac?

wheat orchid
misty aurora
#

same computer, one of them has OSMojave like me, other one has OSBigSir

wheat orchid
#

Ok

#

Well this cannot be caused by mods, as the files have been reinstalled multiple times

native ice
#

Have you tried turning off steam sync, moving your saves to a folder, and launching the game without em?

misty aurora
#

nope I'll try that now

native ice
#

I have no clue if that'll actually do anything

#

But I'm wondering if maybe updating with mods on mac and then uninstalling and/or downpatching mighta like broke your saves which are continuing to break your game?

misty aurora
#

I'll try delete my saves, I'll keep a copy tho

#

Doesn't work

native ice
#

damn

misty aurora
#

I have to go now but I will update to BigSir and let you know how that goes

#

Hi!

untold rover
#

I'm trying to use Modinstaller but it keeps giving me this

wheat orchid
#

Pins

untold rover
#

and steam says hollow knight is updated

wheat orchid
#

You’re in the 1.5 update

#

Aka the beta team Cherry silently set to the new release

#

In the pins there are instructions to revert to 1.4.3.2

untold rover
#

oh I see

meager mirage
wheat orchid
#

Oh I misread it

#

You should test if those work

#

Edit a bit of text you can easily see

#

If poorly translated doesn’t work then use language support

cosmic sleet
#

Has anyone found a fix to the issue where the game wont start on mac.

#

Im assuming its because of the most recent patch

wheat orchid
#

seems mac specific but doesn't happen to everyone

cosmic sleet
#

Yeah its mac specific

rare epoch
#

Hello, I'd like to install mods
I'm on Windows if anyone can help me figure out stuff😁

novel bronze
#

ok so this isnt modding but ill ask anyway
i had vsync off before the patch and my game worked fine, then came the update and it screen tears
its a quick fix, i just turn vsync on but is there a reason why its different now

cosmic sleet
#

@rare epoch Look at pinned comment

rare epoch
cosmic sleet
#

@rare epoch Although it doesnt work cause of the recent patch/

gloomy coral
#

Also what FPS did you have when your screen tore?

rare epoch
gloomy coral
#

Cuz HK just uses up the max resources of your computer it you don't cap fps

novel bronze
#

60

#

i lowered it by changing the game files

untold rover
#

hey I was just wondering how you make the mod manager a shortcut on windows

#

^^

#

or just how to get to it if you close it lol

pliant lantern
untold rover
#

yea

pliant lantern
#

So, just move it to where you want it

#

It's usually recommended to put it on your desktop

untold rover
#

the mod installer?

pliant lantern
#

Yes

#

Mod Installer is the program

#

It doesn't "install a mod manager"

#

The "mod manager" is Mod installer

untold rover
#

omg lmao I'm so dumb xD

#

thanks

slate aspen
misty aurora
#

@wheat orchid @native ice I figured it out

#

It is a problem with the version of the operating system, nothing to do with mods

wheat orchid
#

lol

misty aurora
#

So I will update it

#

Thank you for your time regardless

native ice
#

Oh, nice

crude island
#

I’m having a problem with randomizer. I switched to the 32 bit compatibility beta so my mods would work, and they mostly seem to, but in this run I got dreamers before visiting ancestral mound and now it’s completely locked. Is that supposed to happen? I seem to remember the randomizer always forcing the false knight room to not be infected so that side couldn’t get sealed.

pliant lantern
crude island
#

It’s accessible from the cornifer side?

#

Huh. I guess that one room rando where leaving the false knight room would take me to an uninfected version of a room that was infected from every other transition was unrelated then

pliant lantern
#

that's also just a vanilla feature, fwiw. you can get infected crossroads without going to A-mound in vanilla

crude island
#

You would have to do unintended skips for that right?

pliant lantern
pliant lantern
#

You can go to Sly, grind geo for Lantern, go to C Peaks, go to Resting Grounds, which leads to City...

crude island
#

Oh wow

pliant lantern
#

HK Rando is so good, because HK was developed with the intention of doing things in all kinds of orders. I love it zote

crude island
#

Alright thanks! Hopefully there’s something good in here

pliant lantern
crude island
#

Oh I didn’t see that. Thanks again

#

Does that include map mod?

pliant lantern
#

Yeah, if it's related to Rando, that's the best place to ask usually

pliant gorge
#

does anyone know how long it would usually take for the mods to work on the newer verisons

wheat orchid
#

wdym

#

like how long it takes to launch 1.5 with mods, or how long until a moddingapi comes out for 1.5

pliant gorge
#

how long until a moddingapi comes out for 1.5

wheat orchid
#

there already is one, but the mod installers need to be updated to use it(possibly updated to work for every patch), and every mod needs to be updated and partially rewritten

pliant gorge
#

ok thanks for the help : )

pliant lantern
pliant gorge
#

thanks!

neon marten
#

We Chad mod developers already play mods on 1.5

gloomy coral
#

Shhhh

#

There will be riots if they know

pliant lantern
#

Hey, you can't be here catbonk
You gotta keep working on updating all of the other mods to work with the new API

neon marten
#

Me? I only work on 1 mod and that one is compatible.

#

With 1.5. Because f**k 32 bits. All my homies use 64 bits.

gloomy coral
#

How much more do you plan to add to firemoth?

neon marten
#

Like a lot

#

At least another 100 mb

#

Rusty is currently adding custom scenes

#

why isnt my modintaller working?

neon marten
#

We need some more information

dense shuttleBOT
wind heart
#

I dont think that will work

pliant lantern
#

What won't work?

wind heart
#

Checking the pinned messages

pliant lantern
#

If Mod Installer isn't working, then most likely the answer is in the pins

#

but I mean, feel free to ask lol

limber egret
#

I'm glad you know the problem other people have without them explaining it.

pliant lantern
#

They are very thorough pins

wind heart
#

Ah

gloomy coral
neon marten
#

It already is 120 mb

#

Mostly assets

#

And that is WITH asset bundle compression

neon marten
#

Depends on Rusty

gloomy coral
neon marten
#

No.

gloomy coral
#

Folder*

neon marten
#

That removes all compression

gloomy coral
#

Lol

neon marten
#

We use 4K video files. No way that that is a good idea

#

Also, now unused assets are automatically removed from bundles

vernal rain
#

no need for 4k video files if the base game's default resolution is 720p

neon marten
#

Yeah. Rusty added it

vale horizon
#

Is there a specific mod you need in order to be able to do the lever skip at shade soul? I thought it would be a part of QoL

pliant lantern
#

AFAIK you just have to play on a patch that has it. I don't think any mod adds it back

#

Maybe speedrun mod does, because it goes farther than QoL in making 1432 act like 1221

gloomy coral
#

You might have to go to the settings file

#

And turn on an option in there

vale horizon
#

Do you need a specific kind of program in order to edit the mod files? Or am I just missing where the settings file is?

You can compile it yourself

Oh I see, my bad

shut scaffold
#

so i did the things that newest pin messege yells to,it didnt work,i did the other thing it said but because i cant use installer do i need to set up modding api myself?

novel bronze
#

what exactly is the problem, does modding api not open, do mods not show up in the main menu etc

shut scaffold
#

no mods in the menu

#

i guess thats what it is

novel bronze
#

ok, so HK is starting normally, its on 1.4.3.2, but no mods are showing

shut scaffold
#

yes

novel bronze
shut scaffold

steams verifying the things now,i did the first step

yep, thats normal

I cant any longer mod the game

No he give me a warning

Can you send a screenshot of the error, or describe what it says?

one that looks like this?

Yes that!

#

Ok.

what do i do now?i cant use the installer to install the api

force steam to keep the old files?

why not. Does it show an error, if it does, screenshot that

#

Ok.

no no no, niko

i was talking to grimmkin square

Not necessarily modding specific, but I restarted my computer and HK updated itself and now its very laggy. I can hardly jump around without the screen being choppy. Not sure why, and even now that I downpatched back to 1.4.3.2 it's still laggy. Anyone have any ideas about this?

neon marten
#

That doesn’t sound like it’s an issue with hollow knight. That sounds like an issue with your pc

tardy spade
#

so need to downpatch to open modinstaller?

fair briar
#

no

#

do what the pin says

#

downpatching is completely different

limber egret
#

The pin says to downpatch

fair briar
#

opting into a beta isnt downpatching

tardy spade
#

for me, i just recently installed it on pc yesterday, it was already 1.5...can i still downpatch? dont really know how to actually...

#

been playing on switch before

fair briar
#

yes, see the pin

limber egret
#

Yes, you can downpatch to 1.4 using the method in the pins

neon marten
#

?pins

dense shuttleBOT
novel bronze
#

and, no, thats not the one for reverting back to 1.4.3.2. Thats an additional fix if that alone doesnt work

thats what this channel is for yeah

there wasnt music ,and my saves were gone and there was loading

#

custom knight

#

all mods

#

press g to dab

guys, when my modinstaller is open and i try to open hk it just closes right after opening and when modinstaller is closed and i open hk it just freezes in the loading screen

#

what should i do?

i downloaded hollow knight from drive will that work?

manic monolith
#

im in 1.4.3.2 btw

#

@trim nebula I would like to kindly ask you to remove the drive download and buy it legitimately. Show TC some love

trim nebula
#

ok youre right

novel bronze
#

wait, i might be misunderstanding something here

#

so, you have modinstaller open, you open HK, and then hk closes itself?

manic monolith
#

yeah

#

the error message happens if im in the newest patch but that patch is broken for mac so im on 1.4.3.2

i just updated to update mods

I literally JUST bought the game only for the mods and this happens :(

maybe it's due to TC renaming the game to "hollow knight" instead of "hollow_knight" ?

I don't know if I'm talking about more, but if they can't open the game, what I did was uninstall it and reinstall it, the progress is not lost, it is saved in Cloud Steam, although I don't know if opening the mods, and hitting the first thing that is down, it works
Some remober back

macOS Apple Silicon native support removed. Some of our native plugins do not yet support it, which would result in Steam integration and controller issues.
