[silent patio]

ok

thank you

[gloomy coral]

Assembly c-sharp.xml is always there

Not sure where the .XML went tho

Cus they have file extension open

[native ice]

huh

[gloomy coral]

Try using modinstaller 2 from the pins

[silent patio]

that would be pin number 2 starting from the top?

[gloomy coral]

5

Actually

[silent patio]

ok thank you

[native ice]

The one labelled "Mac" with an attached file called "Modinstaller.zip"

[silent patio]

ah yes just did

i have a windows btw not a mac

[wheat orchid]

Then pin 7

[silent patio]

ok ill try that

[wheat orchid]

The one for windows

[native ice]

Is pin 7 modinstaller 2?

[wheat orchid]

Yes

Why else would it be there

[native ice]

[wheat orchid]

Not exactly a good reason to keep around old mod installers

[silent patio]

ill start the install for this thing 👍

[native ice]

Make sure you move it out of downloads

[silent patio]

should i extract instead?

siiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh nvm

i give up

[keen radish]

click mroe info and run anyway

[silent patio]

oh ok

ill try installing a mod now

[wheat orchid]

Make sure you install the ModdingApi

[native ice]

Make sure to also enable the modding api and modcommon

[wheat orchid]

Modcommon isn’t required

[silent patio]

how do i enable those?

[native ice]

search for them

[wheat orchid]

Click the install box next to them

Does mod installer 2 auto download dependencies

[native ice]

Does mod common download automatically on mods that require it for modinstaller 2?

Ah okay

[native ice]

Yea, now just pick a simple mod

or any mod

[silent patio]

ill try running the game to see if it worked or should i pick a different mod that would be easier to notice?

[native ice]

Custom Knight works, it'll still show up in the top left of the main menu, and I'm not sure but it might have the proper ui in the pause menu in-game, though you needa get an actual skin to actually change it

[silent patio]

how would and could i get the changeable skins?

[native ice]

There's a short tutorial video in the pins, as well as a google drive with most the public skins

#archived-modding-help message Here

[silent patio]

ok thank you and i think everything is working now thank you guys sooo much

[native ice]

No problem, sorry that took a while

Enjoy mods

[silent patio]

thank you i will

[gloomy coral]

Btw putibg modinstaller in download folder isn't a good idea

Download folder have restrictions

[silent patio]

ok i moved it to desktop should i move it to where hollow knights folder is?

[native ice]

No, keep it on your desktop

[humble vine]

anyone know which custom knight mod this is

[native ice]

You mean skin? I think it's "Daughter of Hallownest"

[rocky quiver]

yeah it's definitely daughter of hallownest

[humble vine]

anyone got the orignal hp bar

[native ice]

What do you mean by "Original"? You should just be able to get it from the mod installer

[humble vine]

i deleted them and i don't know how to get them back so

[native ice]

Deleted the modinstaller or the hpbar?

[humble vine]

I am trying to figure out what is causing this so I thought the fact I removed the default health bar could be it but I guess not

[neon marten]

Ah. Check the last pin

[humble vine]

oh ok

[devout crater]

debug mod is stuck

[native ice]

Stuck how?

[devout crater]

well i cant't select anything in the debug menu

[native ice]

Was it working earlier?

[fair briar]

remove MoreSaves

[devout crater]

it was working last night after you helped me before

[fair briar]

do you have MoreSaves

if so, remove it

[devout crater]

um im not the greatest with computers so you will have to explain what more saves is

[native ice]

It's a mod

That gives you more save slots

And causes problems with other mods sometimes

[devout crater]

i don't have it

[native ice]

Can you post a screenshot of your pause menu/main menu then

[native ice]

And none of the ui prompts are working?

[devout crater]

well none of the cheats or item drop down menus

why is mod installer so glitchy all of a sudden

[pliant lantern]

Mod Installer shouldn't be "glitchy" O.o

[pliant lantern]

You can try using Keybindings (the lil' white dots). If you click the [1 / 13], it should still load the next set. All of the things debug does are bindable.

[fair briar]

Remove modconsole

Wait no i might have read modcommon as modconsole

[devout crater]

i uninstalled my game so going to try reactivating the modding api after see if that jolts things i am also playing on a five year old computer so that might be a factor

[pliant lantern]

For future reference, you should never need to uninstall. "Verify Integrity" will go make sure that you installed files aren't messed up.

[devout crater]

well i think debug mod is broken because it is not responing even the key bindings wont respond

[modern meadow]

mod not working, getting this error when trying to reinstall

[pliant lantern]

Check the first pin 📌

[devout crater]

nevermind its working now

[modern meadow]

ohh

[native ice]

Mmm I love it when problems magically fix themselves

[mint crown]

hi is the mod installer for hollow knight updated yet for 1.5

[native ice]

Nope, you can downpatch to 1.4.3.2 to use mods though, instructions are in the first pinned message

[mint crown]

ok

ill just wait

[native ice]

That's a poor choice, aside from waiting for the installer you're also waiting for mods to be updated, many of which may take years or never be updated

[mint crown]

oj

*oh

hm

[native ice]

It's very easy to downpatch, it takes like 4 clicks and a bit of waiting

[neon marten]

believe me. A month after the 1.5 modding API releases all mod will be updated. If not by their original author then by the community

[native ice]

Oh interesting, for some reason it didn't cross my mind that people other than the author could update the mods lmao

[haughty quiver]

So do none of the mods work for 1.5 currently?

[haughty quiver]

Oh

[neon marten]

some do. But none are on the installer yet

[haughty quiver]

Oh

Sed

Also I noticed that when I start GPZ in god home, I don't start lying on the ground but instead in a looking down stance?

It happened once or twice, lemme see if I can replicate it

[neon marten]

wierd

[haughty quiver]

Yep happened again

Wtf

I'll send a screenshot

[native ice]

In hall of gods? You don't start lying on the ground in hall of gods fights from what I remember, unless you mean after you win/lose

[haughty quiver]

Oh

But I;m not standing up straight either

Almost in a leaning forward stance

[native ice]

Ah

[haughty quiver]

Is it a bug?

[native ice]

Probably

[haughty quiver]

Dang missed the screenshot

[haughty quiver]

Hmm

[brazen pasture]

must be the roar pose

[haughty quiver]

Nop not that

This happens right after I enter, before he falls down and the adjectives come up

[native ice]

I think it's the kneeling one, like when you dreamgate warp

[haughty quiver]

Hmm if I can get a screenshot or vid I'll send it here

[novel bronze]

I downloaded Hollow Knight, I changed it to version 1.4.3.2 which is compatible with modding, and I downloaded the mod installer, but it keeps saying this:

[native ice]

To fix this you need to reset the mod installer, then make sure it leads to the correct path when you start it again, There's a guide on resetting the mod installer in the bottom paragraph of this pinned message #archived-modding-help message

[novel bronze]

Aha thank you so much!

It's working now! :D

[native ice]

Oh wait, does it give you an os error when running from steam?

[native ice]

#archived-modding-help message Try this

[long latch]

[long latch]

yep it didn't matter

read

it

properly

I have one question with this:
Does the part Mac users only count for mac users that have GoG, or also for steam users?
If it only counts for GoG mac users, please change it so it is apparent that its only for GoG users.
(Sry for the ping but i'm afraid you won't see it.)

[undone pecan]

Hi, im trying to download the mod installer but I can't because im in 1.5. I set it to the previous beta, but it won't let me play now without updating. Anyone knows what to do?

[vernal rain]

after setting the beta branch, steam will update the files to those of the selected beta branch, in your case it will update from 1.5 to 1432, so 'updating' is fine

[undone pecan]

Ohhh I though it'd update to 1.5 again, thanks :D

do mods work in 1.5?

[wispy valley]

I'm trying to make a new game with Randomizer 3, but every time I click start, Hollow Knight just stops responding and crashes. I've tried using different settings but it just keeps crashing whenever I try to create the game. I'm using 1.4 and I have QOL and Benchwarp enabled

Does anyone know a potential fix?

[ivory aurora]

Do you have all required mods

[wispy valley]

yes, I have Serecore and the modding API

[real jacinth]

And modcommon and vasi?

[wispy valley]

yes

[real jacinth]

Are you using any other mods?

[wispy valley]

Ive created a save file with randomizer 3 before, and it just stopped working now

QOL, Benchwarp, Debug

[real jacinth]

Should probably just screenshot your new save file options screen

[wispy valley]

ok gimmie a sec

[real jacinth]

get rid of moresaves as a start

how long are you waiting when you're starting randomization?

sometimes it can take a bit to run the logic, especially if your pc is a bit older

[wispy valley]

Nevermind, I spammed the disable and enable option a bunch and for some reason its working now. Thanks though

[novel bronze]

Hi, how are you?, so I'm in trouble because when I run the mod maneger v2, after doing the walkthrough correctly, my game when I start it appears the knight's head with an exclamation and the game closes and for me to be able to play I have to check the integrity of the files for the game to work normally, does anyone have a solution for me to be able to use the maneger mod?

[real jacinth]

first pin

[novel bronze]

ok

[novel bronze]

what is the forecast for the new API update?

[real jacinth]

awhile

[vernal rain]

when it's ready, so TBA

[real jacinth]

conservatively..... a month

the API is not the problem. the issue is that all mods need to be evaluated individually too. and mod creation is decentralized

[novel bronze]

it can take weeks to months right?

[real jacinth]

the API is pretty much ready to go.

but no mods have really been updated.

the underlying infrastructure of the game is super different now

[novel bronze]

ahh now with this explanation you made me understand everything, thank you so much for your attention!

[ivory aurora]

What does decentralized mean?

[novel bronze]

right

[real jacinth]

before with new patches, an API update was enough

but now, it's not

they basically changed engines

for....reasons

[ivory aurora]

Updated, no?

[real jacinth]

decentralized means there's no central controlling structure

[ivory aurora]

I thought they just went from 2017's to 2020's

[ivory aurora]

Ah thanks

[real jacinth]

people make their own mods

so it's up to them to update their mods

there's no project manager

[ivory aurora]

Yeah, makes sense

[real jacinth]

there's nobody saying "update this now and here's your timeline."

I think you did too.

Smh people not using punctuation

You were quoting smug green dude

[zinc portal]

I havent played hk in a while but im back now and for some reason i cant acsess debug and custom mouse in the pause menu like its supossed to work

And yes i have down patched from 1.5

[real jacinth]

do you have moresaves on

[zinc portal]

I think so

[real jacinth]

get rid of that

[zinc portal]

Oh

Does it break everthing

[real jacinth]

interferes with UIs

[zinc portal]

Perfect!

Thanks!

One quenstion

Is more saves even usable at all then

[real jacinth]

if you don't use any mods with UI elements, sure

you can also just manage your save files yourself

and not need moresaves

[buoyant coyote]

whenever i try open mod installer it says my hk needs update but its newest version

[real jacinth]

[zinc portal]

U need to down patch

[buoyant coyote]

Yup

I got my answer with seconds

same here

[zinc portal]

Thanks mickely

[pliant lantern]

I don't understand this question?

Mac users can't use the Steam beta.
If they have the steam version, then they must use the downpatching guide, or they can buy the game on GoG instead, which allows chancing patches s easily as the steam beta is.

[fair briar]

Mac users can't use the Steam beta.
they cant? huh wierd

[pliant lantern]

The Steam beta is to support 32 bit, not to support 1432. Current MacOS literally can't run 32bit apps.

[real jacinth]

[runic scarab]

I'll get back to you

[silent patio]

does this mod really make it able to play with more people? how does it work?

[fair briar]

yes, but i would recommend HKMP, a better multiplayer mod

lemme link it

[silent patio]

ok thanks and would the multiplayer be online or local?

[fair briar]

https://www.notion.so/21723018c74c41d3bc555ee9cfaeb743

online

[silent patio]

ok cool thanks

[fair briar]

local is possible but harder

[silent patio]

oh ok good to know thank you

[fair briar]

if you ever want to play locally on 1 pc, see this guide: https://www.reddit.com/r/nucleuscoop/comments/ljx8gz/hollow_knight_coop_splitscreen/

[astral sierra]

btw, how is that multiplayer mod?
I know a while back there was one, but the interacting with enemies and the world was kind of...disjointed(?)
Is it more of an actual fully 2 player experience?

[fair briar]

HKMP is the best multiplayer mod yet

[stone light]

every time I try to open the game I get this error message

[stone light]

I have tried all trouble shooting solutions

[west gale]

whenever i try to download mod installer that warning shows up

even thought hollow knight is updated?

[stone light]

I deleted all my mods for the update and have uninstalled the game

[fair briar]

It has a seperate release with enemy sync (only 3 bosses tho)

[real jacinth]

you have to launch mac through terminal

and mods don't work on 1.5

you have to follow first pin

[stone light]

I did

[fair briar]

And you can play with as many players as you want

[stone light]

that didn't work so instead I deleted all my mods and got back my original assemblyc-sharp

[real jacinth]

on what patch

[stone light]

and the game still won't run even without mods

1.15

[real jacinth]

by verifying integrity?

did you then try to launch through terminal?

~/Library/Application\ Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow\ Knight/hollow_knight.app/Contents/MacOS/Hollow\ Knight

with this

[stone light]

I'll try that

[fair briar]

Also, it has a seperate discord server linked in its readme, if you need more help!

[silent patio]

ok thank you i just did what the page said to do and i think everything is working fine ill run the game soon to see if everything is fine

also how many mods is too much? like will my pc blow up if i turn too many on?

[real jacinth]

no.

but if you have too many. the game may not work

or some may conflict with each other

[silent patio]

ok cool thank you

[real jacinth]

but your PC won't "blow up"

[silent patio]

lol i know not literally

[astral sierra]

Ah, I see...
interesting.
Thanks for the info.
Might put it off for now, until the enemy sync gets more expansive with what it covers, but definitely will be keeping an eye on it
I wonder if it'd work with item rando?

[stone light]

i verified integrity and tried copying that into the terminal but it says command not found

[fair briar]

many player play together while using rando, but you can also use multiworld rando, although i dont know anything about that o.0

but i think multiworld rando works with HKMP, if you mean that

[astral sierra]

I ought to look into multiworld...
But for the former, how do the items work with that? Do you need to pick up your own instance of it, or do both players get the check when one picks it up?

(I apologize btw for asking a million questions, I don't know where to find the information otherwise ^^;)

[fair briar]

like i said, i dont know much about it, i think DwarfWoot knows a bit about it. You can also try asking in #randomizer, but idk if you can go there with questions

[gray cipher]

does anybody know where the saves folder is located on mac

[fair briar]

?saves

[dense shuttle]

[gray cipher]

nice thanks

[real jacinth]

multiworld randomizes items across all players

so player 1 could find an item from player 2's world

so they pick it up, it's given to player 2

they can also find their own items

everyone's pick up instances in their world is their own, but you might have to wait for another player to find one of your items in their game for you to progress

so like.... fury of the fallen. both players go to it in their world.... player 1 may find Dash for player 2. and player 2 might pick up some geo for themselves

[gray cipher]

are teh .json files the ones that have the actual game save in them? or should i save all the .dat and .bak files too if im trying to backup my saves

[real jacinth]

userX.dat are the saves

.bak files are backups

.jsons are decrypted save files for editing with QoL

[gray cipher]

im getting whatever the fuck this is so im gonna try to uninstall and reinstall but i want to save my files, verify integrity and restarting did not help

[gray cipher]

sweet thanks

[real jacinth]

Mac is kinda f'd right now. if you have certain hardware, you can't play the game anymore without other downpatching methods

[astral sierra]

Oh, I do know how multiworlds work, I've seen them done before in ALTTP
I was more asking for item rando on a single world with multiplayer mod
Mostly because I play with a friend...who sometimes likes to go stubbornly try to do some stupidly hard out of logic checks (that may or may not be possible) for ages, and it'd be cool if I could go make progress in a way that benefits us both instead of leaving him with a bunch of catch up to do >>;

[stone light]

am i supposed to just paste it into the terminal?

[real jacinth]

multiplayer mod just shows other people's position

[gray cipher]

damn ok, thanks for the help anyways

[real jacinth]

if you use randomizer yourself, it does nothing to the other people's stuff

[brazen pasture]

Have you tried starting the game from terminal ?

[real jacinth]

you could both use the same randomizer seed and "co-op" the seed in that way

[gray cipher]

how does one perform this task

[real jacinth]

open a terminal instance from desktop

then run that command

[astral sierra]

Ah darn, that's a shame.

That said, I would be interested in multiworld as well, that'd be fun. I don't believe I've seen it on the modloader though, where would one go about finding how and where to set it up?

[stone light]

you can do that on mac?

okay

[brazen pasture]

~/Library/Application\ Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow\ Knight/hollow_knight.app/Contents/MacOS/*

[real jacinth]

multiworld is not on the installer

you have to set it up differently

[pliant lantern]

What you're describing is what we've referred to on the HKMP server as "progression sync" (where if one person gets an item, all get it), and it currently doesn't exist, but is a requested feature.
It's not currently an in dev feature though, so it won't be around for awhile, unless someone adds it as a side-mod.

[stone light]

i did it but the game still won't open

[brazen pasture]

Is this an M1 Mac ?

Cuz I haven't been able to help anyone with M1 run the game so far

[pliant lantern]

Check #randomizer pins

[stone light]

It could be but Idk honestly

[brazen pasture]

Top left apple icon > about this mac

[brazen pasture]

It's intel !

You're on 1.5 right ?

[stone light]

yes

[brazen pasture]

try selecting the 1.4 from beta

In case that works

[stone light]

but the beta doesn't work on mac

[astral sierra]

ah, ok. Well, glad to see it's something being thought about~
Would be pretty cool to see implemented sometime down the line

Also, ty, I shall go check out the pins. o/
Much appreciated, Ruttie, Mickely, and DwarfWoot : )

[stone light]

its updating to the 1.4 but I don't think it will be able to process the 32 bit

[brazen pasture]

It seemed to work on mine, though I've not yet updated to Sierra but brawlhalla complains on my laptop about not running because is doesn't support 32 bit.

So I'd suggest to try it once anyway

[stone light]

okay i'll try anything to get this damn game to finally open again

[pliant lantern]

The most current MacOs doesn't run 32 bit at all, fwiw. Beta Patch doesn't work for mac users who are up-to-date

[stone light]

yeah

[abstract venture]

Oh crap.

I can't play modded.

[brazen pasture]

I mean brawlhalla won't run for me because it says it's 32bit but 1.4 beta did so I'm not sure what's up with that.

[brazen pasture]

I guess then downpatching is the only option

[pliant lantern]

Brawlhalla might be self-preventing it being run

[abstract venture]

How?

[daring walrus]

I'm having a small issue with the mods as well, I hope it doesn't bother anyone if I slide in here like that

I just set my game back to the beta for the mods to work, but now the game starts without any of them and all of my files are just normal game files instead of for example randomizer files. Does anyone know what the cause of that could be? <-<"

[stone light]

i watched the video but I don't really understand how to do that, most examples are for windows

[brazen pasture]

Steam complains about how the os don't support 32 bit but hk 1.4 runs

[pliant lantern]

Click the "if this doesn't fix it" link in the pin

[daring walrus]

Okay, will do

[brazen pasture]

Honestly, I haven't tried that method so far so am not super aware of it.

The link does have a list of values for mac that I'd seen

[pliant lantern]

Up to date MacOs users either need to:

• actually downpatch the real way, Which has a guide linked in the mac section, or
• buy the game on GOG in order to use the Galaxy patch selector

[limber egret]

Check the first pinned messages

[abstract venture]

Got it

[balmy plover]

hey, day 3 trying to do this work, it says now that it is unable to locate the game files

any solution?

[abstract venture]

Wait no, I already have modinstaller2 for mac but it doesn't work.

[limber egret]

Did you do the first pinned messages

[pliant lantern]

Reset mod installer. If you're on Windows, there's a downloadable .bat file attached to the second pin that does it for you when run

[balmy plover]

ok

[pliant lantern]

Are you on Mac? If so, read the "Mac Users" note in the first pin.

[balmy plover]

i cant find the .bat, can u please show where it is

[abstract venture]

Yes I am

[balmy plover]

ok, tnx

[abstract venture]

Also steam isn't working.

[pliant lantern]

Up to date MacOs users either need to:

• actually downpatch the real way (NOT using the steam beta), Which has a guide linked in the mac section, or
• buy the game on GOG in order to use the Galaxy patch selector

[gray cipher]

just uninstalled and reininstalled and can confirm that current patch HK on mac is fucked

[abstract venture]

Mac section?

[pliant lantern]

The Mac section of the first pin

[gray cipher]

ill dualboot its easier

[pliant lantern]

1.5 on Mac seems to usually require being launched from terminal

[pliant lantern]

If you want, your can try this file to launch it:
#archived-modding-help message

I haven't had anyone respond yet if it works or not though

[abstract venture]

You mean finder?

How do I take a screenshot?

[brazen pasture]

it didnt work for me without giving execute permission via terminal

[signal tiger]

hello, I was trying on some mods the other day and this happened, it only happens when I am on modded(if I go the game back to unmodded it stops happening), I have tried removing all mods and it is still happening, so it is probably an API bug. I have tried even uninstalling the game altogether, but that didn't work as well. Can someone help me?

[abstract venture]

Please?

[pliant lantern]

Dang. Was hoping to get the executable set already.
Do you think that setting is being stripped when it's sent from a Mac to windows, or do you think that it has to be locally added?

[pliant lantern]

Scroll down through the pins, there's instructions on fixing it

[limber egret]

Please Google this

[signal tiger]

ok

[brazen pasture]

not really sure tbh, i do have an idea though

[silent patio]

for the multiplayer mod does the other person need to have the mod as well or no?

[pliant lantern]

Yes. If you're using the installer ones, read the "Multiplayer Procedures" pin

[silent patio]

ok thank you

[brazen pasture]

having mac users run this in their own terminal should create a hk.command on desktop with the correct permissions

cd ~/Desktop && echo "~/Library/Application\ Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow\ Knight/hollow_knight.app/Contents/MacOS/*" > hk.command && chmod +x hk.command

[pliant lantern]

#Mac #1.5 #shortcut

Putting that so I can easily find this later

[pliant lantern]

You didn't set your game to 1432

ah yes yes, and now the game is downloading extra files

thanks

[stone light]

:,(( i literally don't understand how to downpatch on mac after reading the whole article and the steam patcher is only for windows too

I think I'm gonna give up now I'm never gonna be able to open my game on steam

[gloomy coral]

#speedrunning might have more experience with downpatching

[pliant lantern]

You can play Vanilla 1.5, until mods are updated for it at least.
You just have to launch HK from terminal

[stone light]

please tell me how to do that

all my mod files are deleted

my original assemblyc-sharp is in the game files

[pliant lantern]

If HK is currently 1.5 (you didn't set the beta patch):

Open terminal, and paste the message in this link:
#archived-modding-help message

[brazen pasture]

i'm trying to put together a single zip that might make it easier to downpatch

[pliant lantern]

It should create a shortcut that you can then use

i did that

wil take me a bit tho.

[pliant lantern]

Did it not create a shortcut that works?

Hello everyone. I just redownloaded the Modinstaller because I got back into Hollow Knight. Now I am having an issue. Whenever I start up the installer I get a weird message. After pressing Continue I only get this screen

How do I fix the modinstaller?

you just go to run new command and paste that right?

Ok so basically. Wasn't there a mod in the installer that allowed you to keep doing Path of Pain

I think so but I don’t know the name.

anyone familiar with depot downloader does the names of the two directories it creates remain the same across platforms?

the first one seems like the depot ID for hollow knight, would the second number be the same across platforms ?

To use the debug mod do I need to download the debug mod api and the debug mod on modinstaller?

[worthy walrus]

Look at pins

If you use the right one

You just need to install 1

[novel bronze]

Which pin?

[gloomy coral]

#archived-modding-help message

This one worked for me as well

[novel bronze]

I already have that

The modinstaller is working for other mods too

just not debug mod

[worthy walrus]

Then it should just do both at the same time, at least for me.

[novel bronze]

when I press f1 it doesnt show the menus

[gloomy coral]

Press FN+f1

[novel bronze]

its working now even without the function

I have no idea what I did to fix it either

[meager heron]

Has anyone had an issue after modding the game where the flames don't show up on the map?

[novel bronze]

Thanks for the help

[gloomy coral]

Modding api does mess with pins and the shade location first time I've heard it messes with flames

[vernal rain]

shouldn't do it anymore afaik

unless you have a save where it messed with it before

[meager heron]

Verity and uninstalling the mod didn't work it seems.

[calm veldt]

When I enable de mod API, this appears and the game just doesn't start. Can you help me? I only have the CustomKnight installed

[rancid frigate]

have you changed back to the 1.4.3.2 update?

The new update doesnt have a modding api yet

[calm veldt]

Oh, I did not know that, thanks

[fresh silo]

from my previous experience with modding API it replaces the team cherry logo and autosave warning with a loading bar

there is no loading bar if you launch on the beta
title screen does not appear
the cursor works fine
Steam even detects you're playing the game and gives you the steam community prompt
the game just sticks you in black screen purgatory

[empty scroll]

i installed grassy knight because I wanted to try to cut all the grass in the game, but gave up. disabling the mod doesn't get rid of the counter by the geo. I tried uninstalling as well, but that didn't work either. how do I get rid of grassy knight?

[silent patio]

in mods is it necessary to have modding API enabled? whats it for?

[fresh silo]

getting the mods to work i assume

[silent patio]

ah ok thanks

[silent patio]

im having the same problem smh

[worthy walrus]

I would just uninstall the mod completely.

And reinstall it later

[empty scroll]

i did. the counter is still there

[worthy walrus]

Have you checked everywhere it could be?

[empty scroll]

like where exactly?

[worthy walrus]

Mods folder. for 1

Or

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

[empty scroll]

oh yeah, the .dll is still there. it's odd that modinstaller didn't get rid of it. i'll try deleting it

[worthy walrus]

[fresh silo]

just saying beta doesnt work

[half orchid]

oh I have an error message,
I'll check my modlog.txt

[fresh silo]

ok

[fair briar]

No, as every mod needs to be updated, and many mods have been discontinued and may never be updated to 1.5.
Beware, that 1.4 support will always remain, and those mods will always still be playable on 1.4

[vernal rain]

Beware, that 1.4 support will always remain
bold asumption

[fresh silo]

ok but just saying it does not seem to work on the 1.4 32-bit compatible beta

[fair briar]

Well Redfrog made an entire pr for different patch support, why would it be removed

[fair briar]

?

Mods still work on 1.4

[fresh silo]

the title screen does not load on the beta

at least for me

[fair briar]

Then there is something wrong with the way you went to 1.4

[fresh silo]

i used steam public beta

[fair briar]

Go to beta, verify integrity, launch modinstaller

Try that

[fresh silo]

i did that like twice

[fair briar]

Also verify integrity?

[fresh silo]

ill try it again

[fair briar]

Which mods do you have?

[novel bronze]

The box in the right corner comes from Modconsole

[fair briar]

Are you sure you are on 1.4?
To check this, verify integrity and launch hk without open the modinstaller

[fresh silo]

yes

it works if modinstaller is not enabled

if I press the "enable Modding API" button, no matter what, it will not load

even if every mod is disabled

[fair briar]

Verify integrity, reset the installer, delete the installer download it again, launch the installer

Instructions for resetting are in pins

[fresh silo]

i did

[fair briar]

I believe theres aa bat file somewhere

[fresh silo]

well

[fair briar]

ill have to come back to this later

so i installed 1.4 and im having the same issue saying the patch isnt stable

Okay so sorry if this is offtopic but I'm having an issue with glass soul. I downloaded the mod, did everything it told me to do and it just boots to a black screen everytime. I'm running on the 1.4.3.2, so the mod API is installed and everything, and all the files are exactly where they should be. Can anybody help?

all my other mods work

just this one is giving me trouble

[fresh silo]

that ends my investigation

if anybody can figure out why this is, then that's good.

I don't completely understand why.

What operating system are you on?

32 bit works without on 64 bit machines

its a problem with modinstaller exclusively

[drowsy token]

i am having what people refer to as ✨a little bit of an issue✨ with custom knight

any help would be extremely appreciated

[tulip cradle]

you just install serecore with the modinstaller

[rapid hedge]

okay but i installed the modinstaller and serecore isn't there

[limber egret]

Screenshot your mod installer

[rapid hedge]

1.4.3.2 32-bit beta on steam, the modinstaller from the pins up there, so i dont think i messed anything up

[limber egret]

Oh, your mod installer is simply not working

Fixing that seems a priority

There should be a pin that explains how to reset the mod installer

[rapid hedge]

yeah, well i ran that .bat and it just says file path not found and does nothing

well ill try the longer way that's an older link

alright yeah it was the error when the installer wasnt ran as admin or on desktop or both

working oi think

[limber egret]

Hopefully you can Rando Rando now! 😉

[rapid hedge]

[limber egret]

Make sure you have mod common as well

[cunning loom]

Is there any sort of Free Camera mod?
I know the Debug Mod can force camera follow, but I'd like to be able to move and rotate in all directions.

[rapid hedge]

why?

[limber egret]

You will need it for various mods to work

Including Rando

Also I suggest Rando map mod, just in a general sense.

It's very useful for Rando, even if you only use it like once

i cannot get customknight to work if it would save my life

it always says it can't access a file because it is being used by another process after trying to install (more specifacally the baldur png)

i am on the 1.4.3.2 beta

does anybody have any idea what i should do?

i have tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling everything from the ground up but no change

[fiery socket]

make sure that everything is closed in task manager, something might still be running in the background

where does the modding api install to by the way? It's working fine but I want to try some stuff in vanilla and I can't find it to disable the mods.

[blazing heath]

Hey can i get a list of the source code for all the mods in mod installer

The original from the github is no longer working

I'll try it once I can find the modding api app thing again

[drowsy token]

new patch

i'd guess

[fiery socket]

it doesn't work on the newest patch

[lone ingot]

oh

[fiery socket]

you gotta use the beta from steam

[void bridge]

Hi, when I enable QoL, Hollow knight doesnt start anymore

is it linked to the latest update?

[fiery socket]

yeah you can't run the mods on the newest patch

[void bridge]

shoot

so we have to wait

[fiery socket]

you can go into steam and enable the beta version though

[void bridge]

I'm gonna do that then

how do I do that

they ask for a code

oh wxait

public beta I guess

[fiery socket]

yeah

wait no

the 1.4.3.2 - 32-bit compatibility one

you shouldn't need a code

[void bridge]

oki

[fiery socket]

just ignore the code part

do you know where how to open the modding api again?

@drowsy token have you downloaded a newer version of custom knight?

[drowsy token]

i have just downloaded the one installer here

[fiery socket]

yeah it asked me to update custom knight though\

[drowsy token]

hmmm

where would i find a version to download?

that might work?

[fiery socket]

just run the installer again and it should update it

I was having the same issue with the "newest stable patch" thing. I decided to look here and I got it fixed because of the pins! I just wanted to give a big thank you because that was helpful

[untold gull]

but the problem with new version is the fault of hk or the mod manager?

[limber egret]

It's a new version so the mods don't ask work on it yet, nor the mod installer. These things will take time to update.

It's not the "fault" of either

[blissful bronze]

wait so the mods just dont work with the new hk update but will eventually?

cuz my game do be crashing everytime i run it

[heavy goblet]

wheres mod installer 2

[novel bronze]

I've tried everything and it doesn't hit anything, and it just keeps showing up all the time

[blissful bronze]

i get the same thing

[novel bronze]

and this only happens when i try to play with mod

[native ice]

Did you downpatch to 1.4.3.2

[torn jackal]

Modinstaller 2 is in the pins, it’s the ones that say “Mac” or “Windows” with an attached zip file

[torn jackal]

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I didn't knew that, thank you

[real aspen]

Hello, could someone help me with the AK 47 mod bug? That's when you press the button to gain life, it uses less soul and life recovers much faster.

[native ice]

Is it actually healing you? Cause thats normal

[vernal rain]

https://github.com/TTacco/Hollow-Point#known-issues-extremely-important-to-read

[real aspen]

Can I send a video of how it is?

[autumn thorn]

hey guys

so ok

my mods wont activate

i installed the mods

i checked "browse local files" and they are all there they just wont activate?

[native ice]

You can’t heal using soul with HollowPoint, instead you heal when you do lots of damage without getting hit. If you if it is actually healing you then something is off, try launching the mod on a save that existed before you installed the mod

[native ice]

Did you downpatch to 1.4.3.2?

[autumn thorn]

what

do you have to un-patch HK?

[native ice]

Mods wont work on the latest 1.5 update, make sure you downpatch to ver 1.4.3.2, theres a guide in the pins

[autumn thorn]

oooh

[real aspen]

Não é que eu já desinstalei o mod e quando eu curo a vida volta muito mais rápido do que o normal.

[autumn thorn]

i might kno how

[native ice]

English please

[real aspen]

It's not that I already uninstalled the mod and when I heal the life comes back much faster than normal.

[real aspen]

sorry

[autumn thorn]

i went back in time and its still broken

[native ice]

Yea, but the way the mod works is that the guns instead use your soul bar as ammo, and you heal by attacking enemies. Also make sure you’re playing on a save you launched before installing HollowPoint. You should read the readme too #archived-modding-help message

[autumn thorn]

gimme a sec

[native ice]

Did you read the entire pin? Theres an extra part at the bottom that pertains to your problem

[autumn thorn]

oh thank

[dense kettle]

does anyone know how to get this skin to work https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1FyC1z98lWlujwcSpd7Wbw75UsEi-mHg4 I have no idea how to install this

[native ice]

I’m not sure what this is. If you want skins you should follow the instructions in the video linked here. #archived-modding-help message

[torn jackal]

What can I do if the ModInstaller2 won't let me install the mods?

And then nothing happens

[native ice]

Did you downpatch and fid you install modding api?

[native ice]

Also custom knight isnt enabled

[torn jackal]

It's because that thing isn't installing it

[torn jackal]

Sorry I don't know where to find that and I also forgot

[native ice]

Modding api is in the mod installer, and make sure your game version is on 1.4.3.2, if it’s not a guide is in the pins

[torn jackal]

This thing?

[jagged swan]

is it possible to have two hollow knight folders and have one modded and one vanilla

[native ice]

I believe it is but I’m not sure exactly how

[jagged swan]

hm

good to know that it might be possible

[native ice]

Oh actually, i think theres instructions for how to do something like that in the downpatching pin

[real aspen]

could you record a mini tutorial on how to use this "Bloodorca" please

[native ice]

I can give you a quick text description but I can't really record rn

[real aspen]

please help me i don't understand how this site works

[native ice]

You can start by locating your save files, from there you can drag or select your save file to edit. Then using "Ctrl + F" on your keyboard you can search for whatever you're looking for, Focusmp amount or whatever. Then when you're done simply press the "Download Encrypted (PC)" button, rename the file to whatever the original save file number was, and move the new one into your save files location

how does customize knight work?

[native ice]

There's a tutorial in the pins, as well as the google drive for all the skins you can use

[robust acorn]

help my hollow knight can´t open with mods here is a pic of what pops up

[native ice]

You need to downpatch to ver 1.4.3.2, the latest update is incompatible with mods. There's a guide in the first pinned message

[robust acorn]

ill try thanks

[real aspen]

@native ice Dude I managed to fix it, thank you very much for the help

[novel bronze]

im having an issue with hollow knight on steam i just downloaded mods then steam updated hollow knight

and now its stuck at 100%

[native ice]

Whats your issue?

Usually that just means it's validating, wait a couple more minutes

[novel bronze]

will my mods get deleted?

[native ice]

Likely

[novel bronze]

ah oof

[dry musk]

has the mod loader been updated for the new patch yet? every time i try to open it i get this screenshot

[lost hound]

[gloomy coral]

realting to that

[tulip locust]

[gloomy coral]

It's literally the first pin

[earnest mica]

So uh I have the error where you need to reset the installer

but when i check the defualt path for where my %appdata folder would be

it just isnt there

[native ice]

In the search bar type '%appdata%' and go up a folder, or hit "Win + r" and paste in %APPDATA%\..\Local\

[gloomy coral]

Run the file

How do I downpatch HK to 1.4 on steam?

In order to allow my mods to work (QoL, Benchwarp, Randomizer, Debug, maybe one or two more but they’re al just for the purpose of running item/room randos).

[brave dagger]

hey is the RandomiserMod3 in the pins the complete version? (I want split claw and cursed nail)

[vivid spoke]

I have my Hollow Knight hacked and it is version 1.5 and something, I resign myself to playing without mods, for the reason of not wanting to lose my advanced game, there is no other certainty?

[full lava]

What does this mean? I down-patched HK to "1.4.3.2 32-bit Compatibility" from steam, but my mods were not working. When opening modinstaller, this error message appears.

do you mean that you are playing on a pirated copy?

[native ice]

There is no Randomizer 3 in the pins? The modinstaller has the most up to date version of randomizer 3 though

[brave dagger]

oh I thought it was also in the Google drive. thank you for your help :)

[native ice]

Ohh

[native ice]

Yea that should be the up to date version my bad

[long latch]

how do i remove mods from the game / remove mod installer

[native ice]

The easiest way is to verify integrity, and there's not really a need to remove modinstaller, just don't launch it again after verifying if you don't want mods. Or if you want to get rid of every trace of it you can delete the installer then delete the folder it makes

[long latch]

i just want to be able to play 1.5 for now

[native ice]

Are you on steam?

[long latch]

yeah

[native ice]

Then verify integrity

[long latch]

how do i do that

[native ice]

Steam library > right click HK > properties> local files > verify integrity

Then go to properties > betas > and switch it from 1.4.3.2 to 'none'

[long latch]

got it thanks

your goated you help so much

o7

what does the verify do

[neon marten]

It checks if game files are incorrect

[long latch]

oh ok

if i can just make it 1.4 again than how do i put back the mods after verifying

[native ice]

You run the installer and install the mods again

[novel bronze]

i was fighting Ultimatum Radiance, and sometimes, i deal damage to her just by touching her, what is that glitch and how to prevent it from happening ?

[neon marten]

That doesn’t sound like something a mod does

[novel bronze]

like she takes a lot of damage while i was touching her

it was like i was dealing contact damage to her

lemme record a vid for you

it happens so often

[neon marten]

Do you have mods on?

[native ice]

Ultimatum Radiance is a mod

[neon marten]

Ah

Nevermind

Then IDK I never used the mod
