imagine if you unlocked all achievements, and got a new pc, and everything is gone because you opened an empty copy

gloomy coral
#

that's only for false knight achievement

#

i can compile 1 to add the specific achivements you want

fair briar
#

but isn't this about removing achievements

gloomy coral
#

they want to remove some achievemnets

#

not all

fair briar
#

yeah, so you said add

#

i dont think you can remove achievements like that

#

it would not make any sense to me

gloomy coral
#

you remove all and add the ones you want back

#

that is what i am suggesting to do

haughty quiver
fair briar
#

just me being dumb again xD

haughty quiver
#

I need to remove
-Ritual
-Purity
-Keen Hunter
-True Hunter
And add back Solace

brazen pasture
#

Make public mod

#

Pls

haughty quiver
#

Wait if you remove all of them with the mod, and I log into my usual save, shouldn't they come back?

fair briar
#

yes

#

but you'd need to have a seperate save with all the 2nd versions

#

like saving zote/ not saving zote

haughty quiver
#

Yeah well I started that

#

I just entered greenpathfeelspkman

gloomy coral
#

How about I add it to debug?

#

I rhibk that would make sense

fair briar
#

ye

#

debug is the right place i think

keen trail
#

ok, new problem
i change the skin but the character model doesnt change

fair briar
#

you have modcommon?

keen trail
#

yes

fair briar
#
  1. which skin
  2. make sure the skin files are like as in the default folder, customknight>skinname>png's
keen trail
#
  1. the grimm knight skin
fair briar
#

likely a folder too much

pliant lantern
fair briar
#

i think it is?

#

i havent played hk in a long time so idk

#

but it seems like new people do still get it auto downloaded

pliant lantern
#

I remember Dandy mentioning removing the need for it. I don't remember if that applied to the update that is on mod installer though lol

fair briar
#

@brazen pasture is modcommon still needed

brazen pasture
#

for 1.2.4c yes , 1.5 has it yeeted

fair briar
#

1.2.4 is realy old lol

pliant lantern
#

124c is my favorite version

#

Lol

gloomy coral
pliant lantern
brazen pasture
#

it's yeeted as an external dependency sethscheme

fair briar
#

it has been integrated

#

consumed

neon marten
#

consume the common mod

#

modcommon*

#

consume the mod that is common

fair briar
#

idea, yeet it and its not common anymore

brazen pasture
#

look what we need to do to imitate a fraction of modcommon's power

#

we copy a fraction of it's code

fair briar
#

vasi

gloomy coral
#

Who needs mod common anyways

#

Just use sfcore

pliant lantern
#

Actual question: it seems like most devs want to move away from using mod common, but it was common for a reason. Is there like, just things out adds that are universally helpful, and a lot of obscure bulk? And if that is the case, is there any reason those things don't get added to Mapi?

fair briar
#

i think it was the first library

#

for mods to use

#

and since it is easy to use

#

its used much

#

so it was common

#

but now there are better ones

pliant lantern
#

Yeah, but clearly it has some useful things- but it's always only a snippet of seems like, so multiple devs have just added that functionality to their project instead. If there's a few core features of it that are universally helpful- shouldn't those just be part of Mapi?

fair briar
#

ask 56

pliant lantern
#

Like, it's not that devs moved to using other libraries- they just absorbed the but that they needed lol

fair briar
#

i think most people say that its just bad coding

pliant lantern
#

The other libraries add more obscure things, so they make sense to be separate.

gloomy coral
pliant lantern
#

This still doesn't actually answer my question lol.

  • If there's a few common functionalities, that are essentially universally needed, then why not as them to Mapi?
fair briar
fair briar
#

and then people need to spend effort

#

not that i care

#

i haven't made a single mod yet lol

#

well not officially atleast

#

1 not finished and discontinued with some functionality, the other just bad

brazen pasture
fair briar
#

it doesn't?

#

i dont recall that mi removes dependencies

#

and i did not want to bother updating it for 1.5
didn't mulhima already do that lol

gloomy coral
#

modcommon no

#

i didn't even think about considering to touch that

fair briar
#

lol

#

i thought i saw it somewhere

#

nvm

gloomy coral
#

I'm pretty sure nick built it

#

But idk if it updated it's functions like the fsm change and then reflection chnage

brazen pasture
fair briar
#

one i made a pr for once to modlinks

vernal rain
#

imagine making mods

fair briar
#

the other one i was waay to ambitious

#

and it didn't spend any more time on it

brazen pasture
#

make a mod that adds bugs to the game , like cute tiny bugs that just crawl in foreground as you play

#

like deepnest but cute

fair briar
#

what was the fear of spiders called again? xD

#

arachnafobia???

#

smth like that

fair briar
brazen pasture
#

but they're a companion in your journeys, like a bright ladybug for example.

vernal rain
fair briar
#

well SFCore is technically a mod

#

plus you can atleast code lol

neon marten
#

what came first? The core or the grenade?

fair briar
#

?

#

the grenade made the core so i think the grenade?

neon marten
#

so the grenade doesn't have a core?

fair briar
#

does it have to?

neon marten
#

IDK

brazen pasture
#

Sfg gotta make a mod that allows the player to throw a frag grenade right ?

neon marten
#

it was meant as a joke

brazen pasture
#

I think it's the law

fair briar
#

it doesnt have a core so it made a core for itself

neon marten
fair briar
#

idk how a flashbang works

neon marten
#

me neither

fair briar
vernal rain
brazen pasture
fair briar
#

wow how long did tot take lol, SFCore was out before i even played hk

brazen pasture
#

The law is sfg makes a flash grenade mod

vernal rain
fair briar
#

well i started playying hk in...

#

lemme look

neon marten
#

I started playing HK on pc like 3 months ago

#

a little before TOT released

fair briar
#

6 december 2020

#

and it was much later i started using mods

neon marten
#

damn. The mapi has been in the work since 4 novemer 2017

fair briar
#

why are these converstions jumping from modding-discussion to help and back again lol

wild whale
#

Guys I need some help here

#

I wanna play multiplayer mod with my friend

#

but he cant afford hollow knight so hes playing cracked version

#

is there any way we can play together?

haughty quiver
#

There's the procedure here

#

Oh

pliant lantern
wild whale
#

gog?

#

whats gog xD

haughty quiver
#

Good Old Games

wild whale
#

ok

#

thx

haughty quiver
#

Np

#

7.49 huh

#

That'll be about 550 in my currency
And steam has it rn for 250zotewheeze

pliant lantern
#

Only the Steam and GOG versions are moddable.

You can keep an eye on this site for a sale on a compatible version, and price comparisons: https://isthereanydeal.com/game/hollowknight/info/ (note that many sites like Humble Bundle sell the games in the form of steam keys)

haughty quiver
#

That's a 75% off dang

pliant lantern
#

Oh yeah, I forgot to check HK on the steam sale

haughty quiver
#

It's 50% off

#

But I think steam reduces prices even further for poorer countries

pliant lantern
#

Yeah, I've heard that some companies also don't technically scale the prices correctly in general to many countries (Nintendo being really bad about it in a way that means things cost too much; and others essentially not adjusting for inflation often, so stuff is very inexpensive)

haughty quiver
#

Huh

#

But you can't scale it much for hardwarezote

brazen pasture
#

regional pricing is the best , gets more people into games

brazen pasture
#

it might possible to play nucleus co-op + hkmp with https://store.steampowered.com/remoteplay to legit play on one copy i guess. but that's probably not going to be a great experience for the remote player.

haughty quiver
#

That's interesting

haughty quiver
#

Which?

fair briar
#

i think asking if pirated hk can be modded is a modding issue but ok ig

limber egret
#

No somebody asked for general HK help

#

Then deleted it

novel bronze
#

When i try to download modinstaller it says you have to update most recent version of hollowknight. What do i do?

urban thicket
#

you need an earlier version. in properties, then betas, you can find an older version (1.4.3.2 if I'm not mistaken)

novel bronze
#

so i install the older version?

urban thicket
#

yeah

novel bronze
#

i think i accsidently pressed a debug hotkey and turned off my hp

#

limber egret
#

The left arrow is backspace

#

The delete is delete

haughty quiver
#

Nice

haughty quiver
limber egret
#

Yeah, the 2x3 instead of 3x2 makes it a little more compact

#

Which makes sense but is very confusing

Hi, sorry if you have to answer the same question for like the hundredth time, but I can't open the mod installer. It keeps telling me that it requires me to have the newest patch, and I know it means the 1.4.3.2, but I switched to it and it's still showing that message, even after reinstalling the installer. Any tips on how to deal with this?

dw if the installer gives no error, i know its the one to fix it

hallow barn
#

alright thx but have a question about 1.4.3 beta. Did Achievement still can be unlocked when playing at latest version of the game?

limber egret
#

Yep

fair briar
#

i dunno actually, when playing 1.5 yes

#

but the beta idk

#

prob yes

half zealot
#

It's still not working, even after following the additional instructions :(

#

Oh, nevermind. I think I had something wrong with the mod installer file, I downloaded it from another source and now it works fine

fair briar
#

?i

dense shuttleBOT
fair briar
#

always download it from there

#

it the only trustable site to get it from

half zealot
#

Previously I got it from a link Skurry had under one of his videos, I assumed I can trust that

fair briar
#

oh ye

inner narwhal
#

Hey, I need your help

#

I just downloaded the modInstaller and the Mods I wanted, but now my game crashes every time I try to start it

#

oh and get QoL

#

the most annoying thing that was changed in 1.5 is also done by QoL

inner narwhal
#

what is QoL?

fair briar
#

a mod

#

Quality of Life

haughty quiver
fair briar
#

dashmaster

#

the suffering that is dashmaster

haughty quiver
#

Wasn't it meant to make sideways dash prioritised?

fair briar
#

yeah

haughty quiver
#

So less downdashing?

fair briar
#

so?

haughty quiver
#

Isn't that better?

fair briar
#

that was also changed in 1.5

#

so thats why i reccomend it

#

sry if i'm a bit confusing lol

haughty quiver
#

Isn't downdashing annoying? And isn't that what they were trying to fix?

fair briar
#

yeah

#

but if you go to 1.4...

haughty quiver
#

Atleast I heard downdashing was annoying in PoP

haughty quiver
fair briar
#

you will need QoL to do that for you

haughty quiver
#

I get it now

#

Ah nice

fair briar
#

nice

haughty quiver
#

Btw I was wondering

#

I can't change my achievements rn because steam saves it

#

Does gog have any such thing?

fair briar
#

i assume

haughty quiver
#

Huh

#

Sed

fair briar
#

why not use SAM

haughty quiver
#

I might use it

#

But idk if I'll get everything back

fair briar
#

back is no problem

haughty quiver
#

I'll just wait patiently to see what mul creates

haughty quiver
fair briar
#

mulhima can't remove achievements using a mod

haughty quiver
#

Oh

fair briar
#

the only way is SAM

#

getting achievements back is no problem

haughty quiver
#

But didn't he say something about clearing all the achievements and adding them back?

#

Oh

#

Sadge

fair briar
#

he reccomended doing a registry whipe and SAM at the same time

haughty quiver
#

A mod for managing achievements would have been awesome

fair briar
#

is possible

#

if steam doesn't exist

haughty quiver
#

Kekw

fair briar
#

is whipe not a word

haughty quiver
#

no

fair briar

why does it give them red waves

thank you very much for your help!

fair briar
#

harsh musk
#

when i lose to a boss in the hall of gods after modding my game with the pantheon of doom, i turn invisible when i respawn

fair briar
#

pantheon of doom?

#

anyways, use the backspace key

harsh musk
#

it says pantheon of doom ingame

#

oh ok

fair briar
#

might help

#

not sure tho

#

also might need to press it twice

#

and make sure you have debug

harsh musk
#

mk

fair briar
#

but if you dont have debug i'm even more confused

#

and if it hides your HUD, use delete

#

i dont know all the debug hotkeys anymore

#

might write them down someday

hi hi, I have a little problem with Custom Knight ...

Just a quick question:
Is there some compatibility problem with the current patch?
Just got the game for PC so I can play mods, but the installer complaints about me not being on the current patch even though I do have the newest version.

Don't have time to deal with it right now, will come on again later, just asking if that is something normal right now as the patch seems zo have released today

in there, past %appdata%\..\Local

That’s weird

Whenever I open “common” hk just isn’t there

Like I have the game installed

I’ve put in like 8 hours bc I couldn’t get my xbox controller to connect and had to get used to using mnk

alternative way to get the installation directory:

resetting it should have worked tho

wait

#

i don't even have the modinstaller folder

#

fuck my eyes i can't see

#

forget it

floral mist
#

So at this point I’ve:
Downloaded a legitimate copy of HK

  1. Got the mod installer
  2. Set up an installation path
  3. Downloaded the mods I want
  4. Put the mod stuff in HK_Data
  5. Enabled the mods on the mod installer
#

What am I missing?

#

Still nothing works

#

Hello, i'm having some trouble with mods. I want to get 112%, but I have some mods that don't allow me to get the charm notch at the end. Which doesn't allow me to get 112%. What should I do.

fair briar
#

get inf notches and hope that works

pulsar salmon
#

I tried that.

real jacinth
#

charm notches aren't percent

#

so you're missing something else

floral mist
#

pulsar salmon
#

No, but in order for me to complete the first trial in the colliseum, I need to pick up the charm notch]

#

I don't know why tho

Should I disable all my mods then try?

remote acorn
#

#

Thx bro

pulsar salmon
#

Exactly! Thats the thing! All the other trials got finished then I got the percent from them

remote acorn
#

Do you have any mod boss recommandation?

real jacinth
#

so they are unlocked

pulsar salmon
#

Yes!

real jacinth
#

i don't see what the issue is

pulsar salmon
#

So I am super confused

real jacinth
#

is there a HK head on top of trial 1's statue thing

pulsar salmon
#

Yes!

real jacinth
#

then you've done it

pulsar salmon
#

But I never got the steam achievement

floral mist
#

It has to be something else then

pulsar salmon
#

But I got the steam achievement for the others

real jacinth
#

not getting the achievement does not mean you don't have the percent

pulsar salmon
#

No it does, because I started the first trial with 93%

#

And when i finsihed all of them, I had 95% instead of 96%

#

HOW?

real jacinth
#

I mean.... is it possible you read the number wrong? or are misremembering? also, what mods do you have on

pulsar salmon
#

Dude, I have tried everything lol

#

I clearly remember

real jacinth
#

well you only have 95%, so there's still a lot to do

pulsar salmon
#

No i know what to do its not like i am a new player

real jacinth
#

never said you were?

pulsar salmon
#

Yea but still

#

I will try disabling the mods

real jacinth
#

what mods

pulsar salmon
#

if that doesn't work, then... Welp :/

#

I'll check

#

Okay, well thanks for your help Mickely. Really appreciate it. :)

#

Oh! And another thing.

#

When I try and revert it back to unmodded

#

It says unable to rellocate vanilla Hk, please verify the integrity of these files

real jacinth
#

so verify file integrity through steam

#

then you have vanilla

pulsar salmon
#

My mods are: Benchwarp, Debug Mod, Easier Pantheon Practice, Fragile strength for nail arts, infinite notches,

Yea but how do I verify file integrity throught steam

do i get rid of it

Skins don't work with Hollow Point

oh

real jacinth

it was supposedly updated to be compatible, but historically doesn't work

pliant lantern

So you can have a skin, or gun, but not both

real jacinth
#

nothing happens when you click on the skin under default?

timber creek
pliant lantern

I think it was the Custom Knight update that fixed it. If you have a skin equipped, then quit and open the game again, the last skin equipped might work

well this happend

my game is 1.5.6 and i got a mod on a site for 1.5.6 and it says i need this mod installer so yall explain nothing

Also, don't get mods from random sites. That's super sketchy

I'm not sure how to interpret that, other than you might be Batman.
At any rate, I'm sure that eventually you'll understand what the pin is explaining. If you end up having an actual question about a specific thing though, feel free to ask.
The pin literally explains the steps in detail though, so, if you can't understand that at a basic level, then I'm not sure what barriers you're having.

my actual question is. literally asked but i will seek help on reddit instead then

i downloaded modinstaller2 and the ndownloaded debug mod modding api and mod common but now my game doesnt start

its just a black screen but i can see the mouse icon special to hollow knight

it might be modding api problem but where i downloaded modinstaller2 it was saying its for current patch, but i dont know which times current patch tho :d

ah right, cheers

#

Probably, if you want to do pop on a vanilla save there's a save file you can just paste in to redo it

daring sail
#

what how do you do that

native ice
#

Download the save, then just put it in your save files. But using debug to give yourself all upgrades and then benchwarp to wp works as well

novel bronze

#

is the save file in this server

I have a copy of it but if you want an official one I think it may be in the speedrunning server

I can enter the pause menu, but the game doesn't actually "pause," the customknight menu shows up and i can change skins, but the only way to exit the pause menu is to go back to the main menu, I'm not too sure though, is there a specific place to i'm supposed report the issue?

Can you post your ModLog?

#

To easily get ModLog.txt on Windows:

  • Press ⊞ Win + R
  • Copy and paste this into it %appdata%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight and hit "OK"
  • ModLog.txt is in this folder.

Note: ⊞ Win is the Windows button, in between Ctrl and Alt on your keyboard

novel bronze
#

Nvm its just the save location right?

pliant lantern
#

Wait, are you on linux? Are you using a Controller?

novel bronze
#

Yes

pliant lantern
#

Well, that changes things then. One second

novel bronze
#

Using the xpadneo drivers

limber egret
pliant lantern
# novel bronze Yes

So, the Mod Installers all unfortunately only actually install the Windows version of Mod API. This doesn't matter for most things, but does affect some things, including Controller inputs.

You need to manually install the Unix API:
Direct link: https://github.com/HollowKnight-Modding/HollowKnight.Modding/releases/download/1.4.3.2-60/Unix.zip

To do that, just drag and drop the hollow_knight_Data folder in the zip, into the Hollow Knight install path (by default, it's ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/ ). It should overwrite some files.

Note: Do this all with HK and Mod Installer CLOSED.

pliant lantern
# limber egret I think people might have missed this. There's three different files in the pins...

When 56 posts the next releases, I'm going to ask them to condense them into one message that direct links to each one.

There's no reason it can't be something like:

Mod Installer 2
Functionally does the same thing as the other installer, but has non-Windows versions and a different UI,
