ok
what causes random item to give soul refills
i find it kinda pointless and want to turn it off
rando
Turn off Soul Totems
i tried, still gives me soul refills
was that a glitch?
Did you start a new file entirely?
That will not be necessary
If you go to where a soul totem should be, is there a random item there?
i can go to myla to check
give me a minute
just a soul totem there
ill try to restart hollow, if that doesnt work ill restart the mod too
That is a very strange bug, actually
I've been having some issues with the multiplayer mod from modinstaller recently, when I try to enter someone else's ip or host the server myself my character disappears and I can't see the other person I'm playing with. I tried hosting it from hamachi or my direct ip, none of the options worked; I've already tried connecting and disconnecting, reopening hollow knight and even reinstalling the mods, does anyone know why it keeps happening?
Does the mods for 6he game now work at the new patch, or at 1.4.3.2? Just asking so i know which patch i should use
Somebody has a potential solution for you
they are off
See the most recent pinned message
There's two settings, make sure both are off.
There's the "Soul Totems" on the right hand side, and then there's "Palace Totems" which is (I think) in the centre
@novel bronze can you share your tracker log?
i have no idea what that is

Go to the "Save Files" location, there should be a file called RandomizerTrackerLog.txt
that is alot of words i dont understand, ill do that if restarting my pc doesnt work
ama just try that first
i have no idea but it has a surprisingly high chanse of fixing random shit my apebrain cant fix itself
i did that and reinstalled the mod so ill hope this works

Buy the game
what?
when ever i open the mod installer it says i have to update the game but its on 1.5.75.11827
because my hollow knight does not let me put skins but if the other mods, I did everything that the video asked but
First pin
thank you
one of those above the arrow keys
press backspace
or that
ahhh thanks
is it possible to mod the new current patch without modloader?
There are some mods, but you should just downpatch
Use the mod installer
current patch runs a lot smoother on my machine but its no big deal
The modding api makes 1432 run better anyway, so if you want to give it a shot
is that in a pinned message? or is it a part of the modloader
It's part of the mod installer itself
Or it's listed as a mod, if you're using mod installer 2 (the one in the pins)
how can i downpatch hollow knight?

ok thanks
the API on radiance is up to date right?
If I load up the mods, all of my save files say "Loading...". But I tried the instructions above (i can't find them now), and it still didn't work
All I get now is HK not opening at all
it there a server for hk multiplayer?
does anyone know if there is a easy way to reset debug mod
Ye. I meant to go back and fix it, but then I forgot 
Also, @gloomy coral can you post the most recent .zip again? I think you posted it right before I went to bed, and I didn't save the link

thank you
so i'm looking to try out impossible any%, does anyone happen to know where i can find it?
uhhh so i downloaded the installer and put on custom knight and now hollow knight wont start
im getting a little nervous can someone help?
Check the pinned "readme collection" doc. You want Decoration Master. You'll also probably want to watch fireb0rn's tutorial on it
thanks!
Define "won't start"? Also, did you read the top pin?
Also, did you read the top pin?
also it just kinda comes up with a little window that has the knights face with a red box and an exclamation point
just now
thanks imma try doing it
it works thank you guys so much
wait but now the mods arent on there
can you help me again
yeah when i load the game the mods just arent there
did you read the bottom of the first pin
im an idiot, man.
ill try it
sorry for wastinb you time
ill tell you guys if i need more help
Did that work for you? Cause I did the steps at the bottom and it didnt work
make sure the modding api doesnt say out of date aswell
mod installer 2 in pins seems to work but crashes often
but yeah it worked for me
It shouldn't be crashing often. If it crashed when you try to disable a mod, then you need to add a "disabled" folder to your mods folder. I can link the path for that in a few minutes if you want.
Explain the issue that you're having specifically, and you can probably get more advice
So I downloaded the 1.4.3.2 beta and my mods arent working. I closed modinstaller and hollow knight and deleted all of the assembly-csharp files and verified the integrity of my game files. Launched modinstaller, said that modding api is downloaded, I launch hollow knight and mods dont show up
Reinstalling it didnt work
which installer are you using? Is there a mods option in the in game options? is there any text top left of title screen
I am using the modisntaller for windows. There is a mods option but there is nothing inside. There is not text in the top left
what did you install
what mods
customknight, benchwarp, and hp bars, and blackmoth to test if maybe it was just the ui that was messed up. blackmoth didnt work
do you have modcommon
.
do this
and delete the settings files for customknight, benchwarp, and moddingapi
modcommon too or nah
right so i'm trying mods out for the first time, version 1.4.3.2 with only hollow point and modcommon installed and i'm currently stuck at this when i tried to start a game
read the readme
nah
ok
please do
it only crashes when i try to disable mods
also do you know the path for custom knight skins
btw this is the gog version
thankie
Thanks that worked
-
Go to where you installed Hollow Knight (you need to find the
hollow_knight.applocation) -
Right Click hollow_knight.app, and select "show contents"
-
Navigate to this folder:
contents -> resources -> data -> managed -> mods
In this folder, make a new folder, and name it Disabled
Also, this folder (Mods) is where CustomKnight skins should be going now (They used to go in a different spot on Macs, but IIRC the most recent version finally fixed it to go here). They need to be in a folder named CustomKnight, and then in a folder for the skin name (ie Starry Knight), and inside of that folder should just be the .png files.
tysm!
i dont see a managed folder in data
Did you go in Resources first?
That's why it's bolded 
is there a way to view custom knight skins without downloading
in the drive folders i see the pngs in the zip but i can't view them
If they are in a .zip, then no
You can look up skin showcases on YouTube though
Unless you have limited Harddrive space, you can do what I did, which was just download the entire skins folder (it took like, 10 minutes or so for Google to make the download, and then a minute to actually download, although that'd be based on your download speed).
Then you can extract them all into a folder on your computer, and delete the ones that you don't want
could someone help me please
Probably, but not unless you give info on the problem. It's a help channel
Error: insufficient data. No help can be provided
im trying to install the mod installer for hollow knight but it gives me this notif
and its fully updated

something
consider yourself fucked
i checked there, hmm
?i You can just download it again, or check like documents, recycle bin, possibly game or save files
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages. 
will redownloading it screw something up
It shouldn't
You'll just have a copy somewhere else but I'm pretty sure everything will be fine
its so frustrating idk why it isn't showing up in a search in file explorer
Is it possible you moved it into your save files? Those are hidden and can't really be found from a direct search through file explorer
Honestly it's really not worth checking, just download a new copy of the installer, it won't cause any problem
k
I'm looking for too ๐
for multiplayer do I just download Multiplayer Client and Multiplayer Server? Also will this get rid of my steam achievements?
@native ice there's a reason it wasn't sent here
we have SFG, SFCore and SFBot now
Oh is it not ready yet?
Changes can still be made
And I can't trust everyone to have it
Cuz then people will use outdated stuff
The mapi is already 2 commits old
Should I delete the link?
My bad, I wasn't aware it hadn't been sent here yet and I just found it based on the 1.5.72
Hence the public gist
does anyone know?
Mods and downpatching don't effect achievements on Steam, they do on gog. Not sure how it works with multiplayer. And for making mutiplayer work, there's a procedure in the pins
So we have to wait for an update for the mod api 1.5.75 ? I don't understand ๐ค
Check the first pin
It's still in beta and subject to change
If you want to downlaod it you can but I wouldn't advise
Well i have no choice haha if i don't do it my mod won't work
is hamachi easy to get rid of once im done using it?
i remember on an old machine it was a nightmare
If you don't want to use Hamachi, you can use HKMP (which Mulhima linked), and join the Discord for it. There's a publicly available server that I host pinned in the general channel, and you and your friend(s) can connect to it without needing to use Hamachi.
and that won't reveal our IP or anything?
The only place your IP is revealed would be in ModLog.txt, because it reports which IPs are being used. Any web connections you make would technically be showing IPs as well, so unless you're using a VPN, then if I were screening IPs from my server, I could technically get them; however HKMP doesn't log IPs from the stand-alone server client (which is what is used for a server), and I have no interest in gathering random people's IPs, however that is up to you to believe or not.
hmm
and with hamachi once i set up my server with only people I trust then I should be good?
I've read some articles about people's networks being messed up and their PCs being hacked

when i open the installer, it says it needs the newest version to run. can someone send me the newest version to download?

if you don't make a password, or make it very guessable, then yeah, people could "hack" into you. aka.... just connect to your network
ah ok

Congrats. But in modding help?
well I did bother the modding help sometime so I thanks them all
Oh okay
whats SalubraKiller and SaneUumuu in QoL?
Salubra killer turns off the visuals and sound for Salubra's blessing
The Uumuu thing changes Uumuu's ai
ah thanks
It reduces the amount of knockback it gets and standardises its attack pattern, I believe
I'm re-posting this so that I can link it in the Hollow Point Fixes pin.
@gloomy coral I added a readme of sorts to it too. If you want you can read it over and tell me if you want anything changed about it. I'm trying to make it as fool-proof as possible 
You say fool proof only to release the bat works for people with windows and steam
It doesn't check for GoG because idk how
I also tweaked this, so that it goes for both the ModdingAPI and Benchwarp Globalsettings, because the problems from ModdingAPI seem to affect Benchwarp, so they both usually need done. (AFAIK, the only reason some ppl don't need Benchwarp cleared, is because they never installed it-- like ppl that only used Mods for Debug)
I actually covered that in the Instructions 
Yea but still
||Well, I covered Windows only using .bats; I didn't think about mentioning that it only worked for Steam, because I didn't know that part||
I feel I heard this joke before
what do I enter for Network ID when creating a hamachi server
Found it
#modding-discussion message
i was being serious though, if you only need to delete the settings, then using a mod you'd know which directory the saves are in and then you could yeet on all platforms
True
Can a mod remove settings of other mods while the other mods are in-use though?
Application.presistantDatapath do come in handy
whatever you want it to be named
ah
Only 1 way to find out
they're only read and written to on load and unload of the game i think
The problem is that benchwarp fix needs to be done because benchwarp globalsettings somehow doesn't allow any mods to load
hello
So making a mod to do that wouldnt work
ah , sad. maybe benchwarp must add an option to fix (delete) settings then
you use all code star buur yes or no
If benchwarp itself loads 
yeah mul
There no mapi in top left either when you need to do the fix
idk mul
Ig
watch as we find add another place to add a try catch in mapi
i'd like to see if the json itself is at-least valid

Alright thanks
help my mods arent showing up in game
Check the first pin
im in 1.4.3.2
Which mod installer are you using?
Did you recently change back to 1432, after using mods before, and then getting updated to 1.5?
wait i used the delete assembly csharp lemme see if that worked
why does it say it cannot locate my hollow kngiht
nope didnt work
game
latest version i reinstalled yesterday
my friend can't join my hollow knight world, he's connected and green on my hamachi network
i was in 1.4.3.2 and my mods stopped working
so i went to 1.5 and did some of my first run attempts
then i reverted it to 1432 yesterday to play a randomiser and mods still arent working
Hit select installation path and path it to your game files, specifically to the folder that has the hollow knight application. If you don't know where that is go to steam library > right click hk > click properties > click local files > click browse and then check the pathing at the top
You did the "If mods still aren't working" part of the first pin right?
If you already did the "If mods still aren't working..." part, then try this:
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/462200562620825600/859176577592852540/Fix_Save_Files_not_loading.bat
my save files are fine
It does more than just fix that
the mods just wont show up in the top left hand corner
Run it anyways
Yes, try the .bat
i dont see browse
idk wtf that did but it worked
Didnt Work for Me
can we call
tysm!
Oops my bad, click local files then browse
so what do i do again srry
can you just tell me what to do in like a vc or something
it would be easier for me
I edited this
I prefer not to vc, it should be a simple enough process. Are you on windows btw?
where browse takes you is where your game is
which one do i put in
so now in the other menu..... select the file path you just went to with the browse button
At the top of the folder, there should be a path like this one
its not there for some reason
when i click common
in what
when i follow this
No
You're supposed to be using the browse function to find your own file path
That was an example
Check the first pinned message for how to deal with that
Hollow Knight version 1.4.3.2
So did you path it to the right spot?
idk
What did you do so far?

how do i go to previous version
It's no problem, it's just a bit hard communicating exactly what to do without a bit more detailed information from your end, but I get it's pretty confusing if you're not very used to doing these things
Install a mod or two, then launch the game and in the top left corner tell me if there's several small lines of text that show the mod names
Randomizer 3 does items and room transitions, Enemy Randomizer... randomizes enemies.
can i only do items
Yes you have lots of settings to choose from

Quick question:
I died at Kings Pass and then I spawned at the Colosseum. Is this part of the enemy randomizer
I can't even get out because I need the mantis claw :D
That doesn't seem like part of enemy randomizer
Do you have benchwarp installed?
Why does the mod installer say I need mac version 10.13 or later?
The installer automatically installed it, yes
Then you can use that to warp back to dirtmouth, I have no clue how or why you ended up in colo unless you have Randomizer 3 in which case it makes a bit more sense
How exactly do I warp? I sat on the bench and nothing happened
Never seen that one, can you send a screenshot?
Do I have to enable Chaos Mode at the settings?
Pause the game, at the top there's a list of options and locations. If you didn't sit at a bench you'll have to click "Settings" at the far right top corner and click "Unlock all" then select Kings pass > select dirtmouth > then select warp
Ahh, thank you
I would love to but idk where my screenshots keep going lately
You canโt use this version of the application โModInstallerโ with this version of macOS.
You have macOS 10.12.6. The application requires macOS 10.13 or later.
Thats what it pops up for me when I click on the modinstaller
I guess that error is pretty self explanatory
Does it actually require 10.13?
Don't know that much about Mac OS so I can't really tell you
Hey so i am trying to use the mod downloader and everytime i use it it says i need to use the most stable version to run. Please update your game... can someone help because it is updated to the latest update

Hey, do the mods work on linux??
Yep
Great!
Incase you're having issues (that aren't solved by the pins) with the installer, there's a zip called "Linux" in the pins that is for modinstaller 2
I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but for the hollow knight multiplayer standalone server (here: https://github.com/Extremelyd1/HKMP), I'm getting this error when I try to connect
[INFO] [HKMP.UdpCongestionManager`1[HKMP.Networking.Packet.ClientUpdatePacket]] Packet ack of seq: 975 exceeded maximum RTT, assuming lost
I'm running ubuntu
(it spams the error in the console, with the number increasing each time)
Fwiw, if you use Controller, you'll need to manually install the ModdingAPI, because the installers only install the Windows one for some reason. This doesn't matter for most things, but it breaks controller inputs for Unix systems
Join the HKMP Discord server for general support with it, for future reference.
But this happens when when the connection isn't completing. Are you hosting the the server on the same computer, or on a dedicated server? And did you properly open both the UDP and TCP port (Or were you using something like Hamachi, that uses a VLAN?)
Oh so it needs a udp port as well
Ok
Thatโs probably the issue
And itโs a vps (aws ec2)
Yeah, the port needs to be open for both TCP and UDP. Notice in the error you got-- it came from
[INFO] [HKMP.UdpCongestionManager`1[HKMP.Networking.Packet.ClientUpdatePacket]]
I opened the same port for udp, still the same error
Are you connecting using HKMP (NOT the Multiplayer Mod from Mod Installer)?
no..
That's your problem then :P

Hey there, I have a question regarding a mod, Redwing. I want to continue to use the mod, but I am pretty sure I have a bug which makes it just gives me infinite soul, and I was wondering if it was intentional or not, and if there is a way to fix it.
Currently I am on Patch 1.4.3.2, with the mods: Benchwarp, Blackmoth, Custom Knight (with the Grimm Knight), Debug, Mod Common, QoL, Redwing and Redwing Assets, and Vasi
Have you ever had hollowpoint installed and opened that save? If not it might be you accidentally changed something with debug, or it might be part of redwing
I have never installed Hollowpoint, and I haven't actually touched the debug yet, other than using no clip during the initial sequence getting the dreamnail because the platforms never spawned. I did check through the debug as well, and I do not have infinite soul through the debug.
It's possible you hit a keybind for debug to change focus amount, but I don't know if that exactly fits the description. Let me check the readme of redwing and see if it mentions it
I don't think the keybind is it, as I did make a new save and it was like that from the getgo
Oh wait yea I think it is part of redwing initially
Since focusing is your main attack form or something
Right, but is there a way to change that?
Because it kinda makes the game a bit too easy
Hm, well I know it's meant to be that you can change some effects
I think that may be in the global settings file for redwing tho I never tried that
How exactly do I get into the settings for redwing then?
Do you know where your save files are?
RedWing gives infinite Soul. That's part of the mod
So is there no way to disable that?
Not to my knowledge. It's part of the mod, and I don't think it has settings.
What's odd is that in the trailer it shows the soul meter very clearly draining
But I guess that might be old footage
It might be Blackmoth that adds the infinite soul? Are you using that too?
One of them definitely adds it, but I don't remember which tbh
Pretty sure it's redwing
Blackmoth doesn't do that, I started with blackmoth initially and it doesn't have it
Since that turns focusing into an attack, but in blackmoth I think dashing is the only attack
yeah dashing only with Blackmoth
Yeah. Then infinite soul was probably added to make attacking not be an issue if you run out of soul.
I was told that they worked really well together so I gave redwing a shot too, and it seems really fun, but the whole infinite soul thing makes this game way to easy
in the settings there is a option that makes fireballs add souls on hit, so I don't think its supposed to be like this
You can check your save folder, and see if there is a Redwing.GlobalSettings file, but IIRC it's not something that you can change.
It's very possible that it is a bug from the API updating at one point, because AFAIK Redwing was never updated.
The readme says there's a hard mode that makes using your fireball attacks your main thing, also that you can change the damage of attacks to balance it for you. So you can try those out
To easily get to the save folder on Windows:
- Press
โ Win+R - Copy and paste this into it
%appdata%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knightand hit "OK"
Yeah I am already in the settings for it
So how do I get into the redwing hardmode then?
https://github.com/natis1/redwing/blob/master/README-zipfile.txt Here's the readme, though it doesn't mention how unless i'm just blind
Yeah I took a look through the readme, and it just says that its there and it doesn't mention the whole infinite soul
I'm not too sure how to switch to hardmode
If it's not in the GlobalSettings, and it's not in Main Menu > Options > Mods, then it probably isn't actually implemented
Or, again, it is something that somehow broke at some point
I'm doing otherstuff, so I can't check right now, but it could also be possible that the Mod Installer version wasn't the most recent version. The version in the Google Drive might be more recent (or it might need to be self-compiled to get it, if it wasn't uploaded anywhere)
I tried to join the discord linked in the readme, but the invite is ๐ชฆ
I have pretty much done all of those things, so sadly I don't know what's causing it
Probably just outdated ):
The ReadMe notably mentions that there was a beta version though, so I wonder if the readme was being updated, while the released version wasn't.

I guess I can just start with halving the damage that the spells do
You might be able to set the focusAmount MP to 33, that might work
I was installing a ton of mods earlier and I think I broke it
I get this error message before even booting up the installer...
Follow these instructions, but instead of step 2 download and run this .bat file #archived-modding-help message
heya, I'm currently trying to do a 112% playthrough with 1 hp.
I've already modified my hp to 1, so that's not my question. (im 30 hours into the playthrough)
My question is if I can make the completion percentage function properly. Since I'm not at 9 masks, the 4% for masks is missing despite me getting them all. In fact, I'm missing an extra 4% because I took away masks. anyone know how this works and if there's a way I can have 1 hp and the correct completion percentage?
You can try the GlassSoul mod, it makes it so you die in 1 hit with qs many masks as you have. But i think the one in the pins makes it so you get more nail damage for getting mask upgrades
Yeah I knew about that, but I didn't want the damage upgrades and the mod is outdated
Well almost all mods are technically outdated if youโre using 1.5. You can downpatch and do it on 1.4, maybe pair it with debug to reduce your nail damage to notmal levels
No like really outdated haha. Latest version is for 1.2.2.1
Uh I donโt think thats true, pretty sure the one in the pins is for 1.4.3.2
Oh wait
Right above the pinned one is one without the damage boost
is this 1.4?
It's not posted literally anywhere else on the internet, I looked for it before forever haha
Well based on the original question and the time it was posted, yes very likely
Also you @ 753 in your reply, if you reply to old messages then make sure to disable the @
oh yeah, my bad. Sorry. Guess I'll downpatch to 1.4 and try it. Imma feel hella stupid if it works and I could've been using that the entire time haha
Don't, it was deep in the pins and it was easy to miss that the no damage boost variant was in another message not pinned
Anyways good luck
thanks โค๏ธ
I've been playing with mods for while, and I wanted to go back to unmodded, but only for a time, so my question is, can I just install the patched version again, without removing the mods from mod installer, does something happen or can I do that and play normally? (Is it going to crash or something like that)?
Yeah, you're fine. Mods don't affect the game files themselves. You can use Steam's "Verify Integrity" option to revert to vanilla. Possibly just opting out of the 1432 Beta may do it too.
Important: Don't open ModInstaller while you want to play Vanilla. It automatically attempts to mod the game again, and that will cause HK to crash if you have 1.5 installed.
thx
Tbh got no clue how to deal with it cuz i just updated hollow knight b4 this and reinstalled the mod installer anyone gots a clue

Does modinstaller work for 1.5?
No, but you can downpatch to 1.4.3.2, check the first pin
Oof ok thanks
hi dose anyone know where I can install multiplayer mod? I just got the game on steam after playing on console
?i Well first, downpatch to 1.4.3.2 if you haven't already, guide in the first pin. Then download the modinstaller from below. Then there is a multiplayer mod on the installer but this one is more stable, check the readme for it https://github.com/Extremelyd1/HKMP
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages. 
@tough patio Also the Multiplayer Client and Server is broken players whoever joined not moving in-game.
I think it's out of date for some reason.
I highly recommend using HKMP a new and better HK multiplayer client.
Be sure your .NET Framework is latest version it may help.
If not working Check the Pins.

That was 2 hours ago?
Hey, so I modded and just added like hollow point and health bar, and then decided to get rid of the mods, but now the healing is completely messed up in vanilla. I uninstalled and everything, could it just be a problem with the files?
I tried to do this to get mods working again but didn't see any csharp files in my managed folder (or any files for that matter), so I tried doing the next steps anyways, and it did not work
what do
"The system cannot find the path specified.
0 file(s) copied.
File placed correctly
Press any key to continue . . ."
where is the mod installer
?i
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages.

On mac?
yes
Try doing it manually
Screenshot?
?
err same thing for the not copy one
Not sure why there's a copy you may want to delete the copy, unless there's a reason for that. But in Contents check the other files. I think there's another managed folder somewhere
Mind telling me the pathing for future reference?
in managed
in managed, theres no mods folder like it says there would be
oh ok cool
Make a new folder and call it "Mods" should be fine
then just bring the .dll into the folder right?
ah okay lol
yea
hello, does anyone know how to fix this?
for context, I set the beta to the 1.4.3.2 version, and it works fine unmodded
Download and run this .bat
Help, my ModInstaller doesn't work, it says this:
This instaler requires the most recent state version to run. Please update your game to current stable parch and then try again
What should I do?
?pins check the top pin

I dont want to keep being a bother, but I made the folder, put the .dll in it then opened the effected file multiple times and saved and quit multiple times... im really at a loss. Its really not a big deal, I can just make different files.
Are mod names showing up in the top left?
Also, there's 3 fixes that do the same thingi n that message, try one of the other 2
the mods arent showing up, should i reinstall them and then do it?
wait im dumb
I uninstalled instead of deactivating, my bad
Alright so doing that all still didnโt work
What are you trying to do btw?
I wasn't around, and dunno where your original message is lol
^
So you're trying to revert to 1432, in order to use mods?
Ah, nevermind
Okay, so first question:
Is Hollow Knight currently set to 1432?
yes yes
Go over the steps again carefully, if that doesn't work try downloading and running this
Alright, so it looks like you're on MacOS?
To confirm, have you already gone to this directory:
~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/hollow_knight.app/content/resources/data/managed/
and with Hollow Knight and the Mod Installer closed, deleted all "Assembly-CSharp" files?
They are on Mac It looked like, so they can't use that
done that
Oh woops yea
Alright, and after that, you used Steam's "Verify Integrity"?
yep
Okay, so if you launch the game from there, the main menu should say 1432 at the bottom left
Is that what happens?
While you're on the Main Menu, you'll want to also check two things:
- Does it show any mod anything in the top-left ||It shouldn't||
- In your Options menu, do you have a Mods options? ||At this point you shouldn't but idk what you've tried though||
No to both of those
Also, when you launched the game, did the Team Cherry Logo show?
Yes
Iโve done that too but Iโll do it again
Do you specifically need 1.4.3.2 to run mods?
And then in the search, put in "Mod" and it should pop up with ModdingAPI. If it says "installed", then try clicking "Uninstall", wait a moment, then click "Install" again
can you run mods with 1.4.2.4 for example?
Well I try to uninstall ModdingAPI and the mod installer crashes
Modding is only compatible with the official versions of the game, either from Steam or GoG. The other versions don't work, including old versions and the Xbox/gamepass version
Oh hang on it didnโt crash after like 3 tries
Ok, Thanks!
Alright should I just relaunch HK now?
Hollow Knight is currently on sale in a lot of places btw. Check here for price comparisons: https://isthereanydeal.com/game/hollowknight/info/
Yeah, after it says it's installed again, try launching it.
And lmk:
- Do you get
logo - Does it says mods exist in the corner
- Do you have an Options > Mods part of your main menu

Well it looks like I was very close
I got stopped at the uninstalling and reinstalling moddingapi part
It crashed the first time and I didnโt try again
Possibly clearing out the Mod Installer memory or ModdingAPI globalsettings files would have fixed that, but yeah, it usually figures it out after a minute.
Huzzah I can do more room randomizer speedruns now
Noice.
Iโve got a pb of 1h 46m to beat

- What's the Mod?
- Where is it from?
- What's your problem (explain best that you can)
anyrad
the game isn't detecting that its in the folder
Can you screenshot the folder that you put it in?
its in the hollow knight folder with saves
If it's with the saves, then that's not the right folder
which is the correct folder?
by default it's ... \steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\Mods
assuming you're on Windows, and using the Steam version
You also need to make sure that it's just the .dll file that you're putting in there, not a folder or .zip
What OS are you on?
And what platform of HK do you have? (Steam/GoG/Etc)
Then you do have that folder, assuming you've launched HK at least once
Use Steam to make sure that you're opening the correct starting folder (It'll open it at the \Hollow Knight\ part of the path that I posted
oh i was looking in the wrong place
can anyone explain me why the skins doesn't appear
You haven't installed any, or haven't installed them correctly.
The mod only comes with "Default", which is the Knight
Yes. That's not correct.
That's not correct
alright, its working now, thank you
ohh, how can I correct it?
Insert skin file into CustomKnight folder.
Okay : )
Then check again
All skins should be in the format in the pic I just posted :)
Ok so I'm dumb, I thought I'd try out some mods on a completed save i got online, but when I loaded it I got all the achievements, so can I remove the achievements I haven't done like ritual, keen hunter etc without removing the one's I have done?
@silent portal @pliant lantern Thank you so much! It works โค๏ธ
Steam achievements?
Yeah
No problem enjoy it :)
But I don't want to reset everything
Yes you can remove achievements from Steam
Is there like a local file where they're stored?
Nope
But doesn't that reset all?
Google it
Look up "SAM Steam achievements" on google
SAM only gives not removes
The github one?
Mmmm.. Not the last time I heard
If you don't want achievements just clear the registry
I've never actually used it, but people recommended it to others in the BoI community, because Repentance accidentally gave some ppl all Achievements.
Does that reset all of them?
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
Kek
Yes
Oh
People use it for TF2 achievements
After that, can I get back the achievements I have got?
Or does that happen automatically when I open the save?
hey anyone has the Rick skin???
With mods yes
But this will also delete your settings ingame
Multiplayer games, especially Valve ones have stuff that prevents removing them iirc.
I can change that. np
It's in the TWP Drive
is this where i bring it
@timber creek yes
You need to set it to the folder with hollowknight.exe right?
Yes
Choose the Hollow Knight folder

Is this the correct regedit path?
You have updated to 1.5 right
yes
ModInstaller only run via 1.4.3.2 version
For now
Check the pins and set it to 1.4.3.2 beta

For resetting the ingame achievements
Check the downpatching guide on speedrun.con
Anybody know where the recent mod installer is?
Ok
nvm found it
@timber creek it named hollow point
Just download it
But it wont work with Randomizer mod
I donโt see why it wouldnโt
It's even in the readme of HollowPoint how to use it with randomizer
Lmao
Are enemy rando and room rando part of randomizer, or are they different mods?
k im sorry if im still being a bother but what are to mods names for all charms and infinte soul
Different mods, the former is called "Enemy Randomizer" the latter is called "Randomizer 3" which can do rooms or items
DebugMod
Not worked for me
what does debug do
Alot of things
Literally
Alot alot of things
Ohh
Does everything
Can debug change your nail? I didn't see an option for that
Yes
It can change your nail damage and nail upgrade level
wait so debug changes the game
oh
No, it adds a ui that lets you do cheaty stuff like noclip, invincibility, etc
Oh upgrade level is it's name
It might just be "Nail level" or something
Download it and click F1 in game for open it
^
We can try and figure out why if you'd like, but it definitely does work with randomizer
Oh
wait so doesn't the god mod change guns depending on the charm
Some charms are changed to have different effects for the guns
Never heard about god mod
gun
gun is god
oh you mean hollow point
sorry i fat fingered
Its ok
Also, make sure to read the readme https://github.com/TTacco/Hollow-Point/blob/master/README.md
@silent portal I'm guessing that you didn't follow Hollow Points instructions correctly, so you couldn't get them to work together.
To use HP and Rando, you need to:
- Have HP Disabled, but Rando (and other mods) installed+Enabled.
- Start Rando file. Wait a moment, then Save + Quit to menu. Close HK.
- Enable HP, then open HK, and load the Rando save.
I've done multiple HP Randos lol
I did it like for few times
And still not
Hollow Point doesnt matter with keyboard or console right
I play on keyboard
That shouldn't matter, if anything having a controller might cause problems
oh
Controller shouldn't cause issues lol, but there are things that require Keyboard sometimes (like Debug).
Neither Rando nor Hollow Point require controller though. Nothing requires Controller.
dwarf you use controler right?
oh alright
I'm confused, why does a console matter here?
I meant like the MAPI problem for mac, or whatever it was that caused the game to crash when using a controller and mods
True. But that has been solved by Dandy lol
i wanted to know how new mod menu and controllers interact
Do you mean controller? Cause console is like an Xbox or playstation
On one hand, with Yuri wanting Vanilla experience by default, I hope well.
On the other hand, I expect them to require Mouse, like current drawn Mod menus do.
I stopped following that chat, but if anything is implemented and needs testing, I actually installed my GoG copy of HK so that I can test out 1.5 mods/modding.
Nah
You definitely aren't
Just have several installations using steamcmd. You can even have other platforms too.
Nope. I do too
I speedrunned game with keyboard lol
@silent portal If you want help trying to fix Hollow Point with randomizer we can figure that out btw
I don't know what Steamcmd is. Is that an external program, or is that Multi-installs via the steam app_id stuff?
Either way, I have HK on both Steam and GoG, so it doesn't matter lol
It is the developer command prompt for steam. It allows you to do some cool stuff and also install for different platforms like: the max build on a windows pc
Also ty but im not in pc rn
We'll figure out it later
how do i bring the menu back from hinding
thank you
I assume you already have the links to 1.5 mods
ok so i found a really bad bug
the game freezes when i select the iteams
also what is the button to pull out the gun
Tap the focus/heal button
And freezes like completely crashes or just lags a bit?
I can find your post for them, yeah :P
did you update a mod to use the new Menus?
Read the little log at the bottom of the Debug menu btw. Some people accidentally bind a button to "clicking", which it'll say in that log.
currently Easier Pantheon Practice, MoreSaves amd custom knight uses a menu
ok so the gun isnt coming out and im just casting tear
so the asnwer is I did it to 2 mods
Do you see the gun on your back? When you pause the game in the top left does it say Hollow Point is installed?
Did you read the Instructions for Hollow Point (READ THE README), like the mod title told you?
ok so the gun isn't hurting and not changing when i use the charms
but i can still shoot ans use it
and
Did you check the readme I just linked? You have to use a save that was made without hollow point installed
Yes. It's pretty clear what the problem is. You really need to read the ReadMe, like it tells you to. Both the main part, and the IMPORTANT part
Please, if a Mods in the title, tells you to read the readme, then take a minute and do so.
You should honestly do it for any mods before asking questions, but this goes DOUBLE for any thing that asks you to.
i use a controller, new mods menu is super compatible. one of the reasons i'm super excited for it is that tbh.
could be, as long as you keep the navigation graph thingy i think
anyone help me out with my mod installer problem

Hello, earlier I was trying to reset my ingame achievements because I opened a 112% save I got online for trying out mods, and it unlocked most of the achievements
I deleted the Team Cherry regedit entry, but it didn't work
use SAM
did you follow the downpacthing guide
the game gets the achievements from steam i think
Yes, the deleting regedit entry one
maybe this could be the reasom
the game auto added all of them cuz of steam
use both
SAM and redistry deleting
Rn, I need to remove
-Ritual
-Purity
-True Hunter
-Keen Hunter
And add Solace
Wait so if it's tied to steam how did this work?
