real jacinth
neon gull
#

bc you havent downloaded the fiels yet

real jacinth
#

you can't open something that isn't there yet

shut arch
#

that makes sense i suppose

fathom tartan
#

This might be a silly question, but do you need to actually use the mod installer to install the mods or is it more of a QoL kinda thing to make it quicker to install them?

distant osprey
#

im trying to play the multiplayer mod with a friend but there is a problem, if he's the host i can see he mooving and everything, but he doesn't, and when im the host i can't see he moving, but he can see me mooving

round elbow
#

Uh, the mod installer is acting up. Whenever I open it it says 'there is no sequence matching the element'.

#

And if I continue..

#

Nothing but the manually install shows up.

vernal rain
#

For some reason me and my friends can't play

spice sorrel
#

something like that has been happening tome to

celest skiff
#

Not sure if this is the right channel but since downpatching to 1.2.2.1 I've had massive stutters and long room transitions. Game literally freezes for 2 seconds every time I pick up vengeful spirit. I have v-sync off and have tried deleting the registry

shut arch
#

does anyone know where the infected skin is that the white palace made

spice sorrel
#

ill send it

?i

dense shuttleBOT

novel bronze
shut arch
#

i know but the skin i'm looking for isn't here

spice sorrel
shut arch
#

yes

naive crystal
#

(sorry for repost, thought my answer was in the readme) i've hear Bindings works on the current patch and doesn't require the modinstaller. how do i install the Bindings mod?

native ice
spice sorrel
#

its next to hat skin

shut arch
#

i had it at some point @native ice

#

i also had the pale king skin at some point but don't anymore :/

#

wait where's the twp drive then

celest skiff
native ice
#

In the pins

#

Near the bottom

shut arch
#

oh that one

#

yeah i was there too but the skin wasn't there either

novel bronze
#

@naive crystal Bottom pin appears to be a guide on manual installing.

spice sorrel
#

is the demons slayer skin a skin i can download cause i cant seem to find it anywhere?

naive crystal
naive crystal
#

well the manual installation guide at the bottom of the pins is outdated

novel bronze
#

I mean, I can find the folders.

naive crystal
#

how do i manually install a mod that works with the current update

#

it's just a dll file and a readme (Bindings mod)

native ice
#

You need the 1.5 api and you put the dll in the mods folder that comes with it

novel bronze
#

1.5 API is a thing?

#

Where is it?

naive crystal
#

where can i find the 1.5 API

native ice
#

Yes, I can’t get it at the moment because mobile

tiny bronze
#

im on mac and when i try open the modinstaller.exe it says "cannot extract T"

#

help

pliant lantern
tiny bronze
#

ok thx

#

umm where's the pins

pliant lantern
#

?pins

#

Wow, bot is dead. rude

dense shuttleBOT
tiny bronze
#

oh i see it

pliant lantern
# tiny bronze oh i see it

Also, 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 ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/hollow_knight.app/,
then Right-click hollow_knight.app, and select "show contents", then navigate to: contentsresourcesdata. It should overwrite some files.

Note: Do this all with HK and Mod Installer CLOSED, and make sure that you've already set Hollow Knight to patch 1.4.3.2

naive crystal
#

can someone send me the link for the 1.5 API?

pliant lantern
#

Like, 1432 mods won't work on 1.5

#

so, most mods don't work on it

naive crystal
#

Binding mod is a dll file

#

and i've heard it works on 1.5

#

so i wanted to install it but i heard it required the 1.5 API

#

but if it's experimental i probably won't use it

pliant lantern
spice pebble
#

hey all

#

does custom knight need any other mod to run?

pliant lantern
#

ModCommon

spice pebble
#

thank you

stable dew
#

is there a way to change where the mod installer looks for the game?

native ice
stable dew
#

thanks

gleaming vapor
#

unity crash help?

native ice
gleaming vapor
#

the unity thing only loads for a second and then closes and the game shuts

gleaming vapor
#

i believe so yes

native ice
#

If you ran the modinstaller that's enough

#

?pins Check the latest pin, you need to downpatch

can someone help when i load up my game the screens black but i have the cursor

round elbow
#

uh, for some reason i die whenever I get hit, I presume it's because of a mod

#

at this point my masks are useless

#

and i just spawned in the white palace and can't move

native ice
round elbow
#

elderbug god, mantis gods, debug, benchwarp, custom knight, theres more let me check

native ice
round elbow
#

good point

#

uh, how do I hide the benchwarp ui, it's overlapping-

#

ill just quit-

#

there

native ice
#

Well I don't see anything that obviously would make you get oneshot,

native ice
#

Oh

round elbow
#

damn, elderbug can't be god any longer

#

very unfortunate, but i am god now

pliant lantern
#

Also, if anything says "failed to load" then it's not only not loaded, but your mods may not work correctly while you have it.
Uuwuu is currently broken iirc (or rather, FrogCore is donked up? something like that) so you should remove that too.

native ice
#

They have two uuwuus

pliant lantern
#

||There is a fixed version floating around somewhere, but I'm too lazy to search for it||

pliant lantern
#

Once to report the Version, and once to say that it's broken

native ice
#

Oh, never noticed that before then

wooden void
#

Hey, can someone help me with the mod installer, for some reason it says "This installer requires the most recent stable version to run. Please update your game to current stable patch and then try again".

marsh thicket
#

which version of hollow knight are you running?

wooden void
#

It should say at the bottom left right? It says 1.5.75.11827

#

I just got hollow knight a couple months ago so im pretty sure im on the latest patch

novel bronze
#

ayo how i install custom knight on mac?

marsh thicket
#

it tells how to do that in pins

wooden void
#

ok thx

pliant lantern
# novel bronze ayo how i install custom knight on mac?

🔹 Make sure your game is set to the correct version (1432). You can easily to this by opting into the Steam Beta patch for it (see pins pinknight )

🔹 Download the Mod Installer 2 for Mac (from pins pinknight )

The Mod Installer unfortunately only actually installs the Windows version of Mod API. This doesn't matter for most things, but does affect some things, including Controller inputs. So if you use a Controller, you'll need to manually install ModdingAPI:
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 ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/hollow_knight.app/,
then Right-click hollow_knight.app, and select "show contents", then navigate to: contentsresourcesdata. It should overwrite some files.

Note: Do this all with HK and Mod Installer CLOSED, and make sure that you've already set Hollow Knight to patch 1.4.3.2

🔹 Launch Mod Installer, then Install Custom Knight. Then Install any skins you want (many of them are in the Google Drives in the pins pinknight )

help my hollow knight won't load up

#

i have tried like everything please help

west bane
#

gonna need more than that

mystic badge
#

when i load up the game i have the cursor but the screen is black i have tried reinstalling twice and verifying twice too

west bane
#

thats something to do with your install then

mystic badge
#

can you help?

#

can someone help

pliant lantern
#

Are you using mods?

#

Also, what Operating System are you on?

mystic badge
#

im on mac im using custom knight and modcommon also i didn't use the installer

pliant lantern
#

Are you on the correct version, and did you correctly install the Modding API?

#

You should probably use Mod Installer 2 for mods that are on it, like CustomKnight and ModCommon

mystic badge
#

im on 1.4.3.2

#

also i can't use mod installer

pliant lantern
#

Why?

mystic badge
#

my pc is too old

distant osprey
#

im trying to play the multiplayer mod with a friend but there is a problem, if he's the host i can see he mooving and everything, but he doesn't, and when im the host i can't see he moving, but he can see me mooving, what can i do?

pliant lantern
#

You may want to look into switching to HKMP though, which is a different multiplayer mod, that's not currently on the installer

#

It's a lot simpler to use, and is less buggy overall

distant osprey
#

how does that work?

mystic badge
#

@pliant lantern can you help with my game not loading up

pliant lantern
# mystic badge my pc is too old

If you have a really old computer, then it's possible that it just won't work. You might want to make sure that it loads without the mods installed, and then try it with ModCommon alone, and then with CK

pliant lantern

Hm

#

Questions

#

I dragged and dropped hollow knight data onto the hollow knight folder

#

I can’t find show contents after right clicking on hollow_knight

pliant lantern
#

Are you on Mac?

quaint stream
#

Nno Windows

pliant lantern
#

Windows doesn't have a "show contents"

quaint stream
#

Hm

pliant lantern
#

What are you trying to do?

quaint stream
#

Install the mod API manually

#

Becuase I use a controller

pliant lantern
#

That post was for Mac

#

It doesn't apply to Windows at all

quaint stream
#

Oh

mystic badge
quaint stream
#

Sooo I should delete what I installed and instead

marsh thicket
#

glossy dome
#

real jacinth
#

of course not

glossy dome
#

my hollow knight is a pirate because i can't buy it so i just wanted to know if the mod had a virus

real jacinth
#

lel. announcing you're a thief in the dev's server

#

very smart

glossy dome
#

I just wanted to use the skins in the game to see how it looks

slim mountain
#

C'mon the game costs 10 dollars

real jacinth
#

and has been half price for a week or two

slim mountain
#

And it sometimes goes on sale for 7 dollars, no joke

glossy dome
#

and that I'm Brazilian here in Brazil it costs 27 R$ 😦

slim mountain
#

Still...

dusky flume
#

Whenever I open the radiance mod installer thing it says "Unable to locate game Files... Please make sure the game is installed and try again" I tried uninstalling hollow knight then reinstalling but it still didn't work. I also tried reinstalling the mod installer but wont work, Anyone know how to fix it?

#

I'm on windows btw

glossy dome
#

I so wanted to have the hollow knight from steam so it wouldn't be wrong

native ice
glossy dome
#

I think I will use the grimm skin

native ice
native ice
glossy dome
#

mod installer then has no virus, phew

slim mountain
#

Everything from this discord is guaranteed to be safe bcuz of moderators

native ice
#

Not everything

#

Correct me if needed

native ice
#

Things from the pins are definitely safe

slim mountain
#

Oh then what mod is not safe?

native ice
#

You can usually trust moderators

gray temple
# gray temple i mean yeah most are outdated

also im too lazy to try and understand how to use a save editor and even if i wanted to try id probably end up cheating in enough essence to awaken the dream nail and the delicate flower so its more self restraint which i suck at

#

so

real jacinth
#

I'm in doubt between the grimm skin or the undertale skin

marsh thicket
pliant lantern

native ice
# mystic badge ok same thing

Have you tried just deleting your entire game files and making copies of your saves and doing the same to your save files?

mystic badge
#

nope

#

dunno how to do that

native ice
#

It might make the game playable and then you can try and readd all the mods

mystic badge
#

okay

#

so

#

can you step by step help me with this?

native ice
mystic badge
#

ive had 3 saves so i just got the userx1.dat files the other saves were speedruns

#

so idc about them

native ice
#

ah okay

#

Now, delete the entire team cherry folder

mystic badge
#

ok heres what ive got

native ice
#

That's just so you don't delete your saves

#

Did you delete the team cherry folder?

mystic badge
#

how do i find it

#

like delete the folder or everything in it?

native ice
#

Delete the folder

mystic badge
#

i need to find the folder in game files first

native ice
#

What do you mean?

mystic badge
#

which is hard

#

on mac to delete the folder you cant do it inside said folder

native ice
#

Oh, I'm unfamiliar with mac

mystic badge
#

this is difficult to find

#

hmmm

native ice
mystic badge
#

so this is the folder and you see the arrows in the top left corner you could usually click the back arrow and find the folder and deleted it but as you can see its greyed out meaning your cant go back or forward

native ice
#

Wait I thought you said you deleted the globalsettings files

native ice
mystic badge
#

#

ok*

#

now what

native ice
#

Now go to your game files, the area with the hollow knight application

#

And delete all that

mystic badge
#

just like the contents folder

#

also i still have the game installed rn is that ok

native ice
#

Yea

mystic badge
#

k what next

#

so get rid of cintents folder?

#

contents*

native ice
#

Yea, or just the entire hollow knight application/folder

mystic badge
#

well if i delete the thing before contents then i unistall hk

native ice
#

Yea that'll probably be good

mystic badge
#

ok i deleted contents

#

what next?

native ice
#

Now try reinstalling hollow knight, hopefully it'll stop giving you just a black screen, then you can try reinstalling mods and hopefully it'll work

mystic badge
#

so first do i uninstall it?

native ice
#

Sure, probably doesn't matter tho

mystic badge
#

ok

#

ok reinstalling it

mystic badge
#

@native ice same thing

native ice
#

Really?

#

That makes no sense

#

And going back to 1.5 doesn't work

#

?

mystic badge
#

wait i clicked and hear something

#

i think my title screen file is just deleted

native ice
#

Oh yea I think that's normal, but i don't think it'll work

mystic badge
#

maybe i can get the files

#

back

native ice
#

I don't think that's the cause

#

its fine ill just revert it back WatchingChat

wanton pike
#

copy the file with the mods, delete it and try reloading the game

tiny bronze
#

is it possible to mod hk in 1.5 or do i have to wait for modders to make mods that work for 1.5

wanton pike
#

if it works then the issue would be with how you installed the skins

#

if it doesn't then try reverting to 1.5 and back ig

novel bronze
#

Aight

native ice
#

Plus downpatching is easy and practically the same from a gameplay perspective

#

river

#

what was your idea

native ice
mystic badge
#

what does that do

native ice
#

Exits or enters full screen, I doubt it'll work but who knows

mystic badge
#

#

#

Can someone please help me with setting up my modded client? i have followed this tutorial: https://www.speedrun.com/hollowknight/guide/jlten to downpatch to V 1.4.2.4, and am trying to install the modded client, but i receive the unable to locate game files error. I have checked the directory multiple times, and should all be correct. does anyone know what i've done wrong?

#

note: downpatching on steam

limber egret
#

You need 1432

#

Not 1423

#

Check the first pin for the much more straightforward method

#

Unless you're going to 1423 for a specific reason (speedrunning pantheon ILs, for example)

#

If you're playing on a patch other than 1432 then you will need to find the API and specific mods for that patch.

how do i get the hollow knight modinstaller

dense shuttleBOT

#

thanks riverrobot

native ice
#

Make sure to check the pins first

#

Specifically the latest one

novel bronze
#

how do i find my install path?

native ice
# novel bronze how do i find my install path?

Steam library > right click hk > properties > localfiles > browse > this’ll take you to the correct folder you just have to lead the modinstaller down the same file path to reach it

novel bronze
#

idk how to lead the modinstaller to there

native ice
#

Are you on windows?

novel bronze
native ice
# novel bronze yes

At the top of it there's a list of folder names in a row, that's the pathing. It should be something like Steam/steamapps/Common/Hollow Knight with a few extra at the start. Start from the left and look for folders of the same name on the page the mod installer opened

novel bronze
#

like at the top of what?

native ice
#

Something like this

#

At the top of the folder that opened when you clicked browse

novel bronze
#

im in that folder now

native ice
#

In that folder in the mod installer menu or in folders? Cause you should be in the modinstaller menu. If you are then hit okay

novel bronze
#

folders

#

idk how to get to that folder with the mod installer

#

when i click on the folder it wont open

#

it just goes blue

native ice
#

Can you send a picture

novel bronze
native ice
#

Just click "Ok"

#

And you should be good

#

Also holy shit the pings

novel bronze
#

it said needs the new patch

native ice
#

Check the latest pinned message

novel bronze
#

ok

#

now?

native ice
#

?

novel bronze
#

im in betas

#

in hollow knight properties

native ice
#

Click the drop down, select 1.4.3.2, close the menu, and wait for it to download

novel bronze
#

and now what

#

ah ok

#

i got it

#

i can now install mods

native ice
#

yep

austere folio
#

hmm thinking of getting mods but just wandering are there actually any good mods for hk??? like what are the best ones??

limber egret
tiny bronze
#

ok i want to add skins to hk but fireborns guide shows him going from the hk_data folder to managed to mods then to custom knight but for me there wasnt a mods folder

limber egret
#

Have you downloaded the Mod installer?

tiny bronze
#

yes

#

wait do i need modinstaller 1 or 2

limber egret
#

Are you on Windows, Linux, or Mac?

tiny bronze
#

mac

limber egret
#

Your layout will be slightly different then

#

You will need the Mac mod installer from the pins, not the one from the channel topic

tiny bronze
#

i did use mac mod installer

#

do i need to make the folders myskef

limber egret
#

Good stuff! You need to download mod common, modding API (it will likely say out of date, click the orange box if it does), and custom Knight.

tiny bronze
#

ok

limber egret
#

It should create the folders for you

tiny bronze
limber egret
#

The layout is slightly different. I think it's data/resources/managed/mods? I'm a Windows user so I'm remembering from other people's stuff

#

Yep that's all correct

#

So you just need to find the folder now.

tiny bronze
#

idk where it is

limber egret
#

That's the contents folder, you need to go up

#

Or back

tiny bronze
#

if i do that theres only the contents folder nothing else

limber egret
#

I'm not sure then at this point. Hopefully a Mac user will be along to help out soon.

tiny bronze
#

ok thanks for trying at least

native ice
#

I believe it's contents/resources/data/managed/mods

#

@tiny bronze

tiny bronze
#

ok

flat nimbus
#

Hey guys

#

so I rolled back my version to the beta to play with mods again

#

And for some reason my false knight/failed champion is invisible

#

All the other bosses are fine

tiny bronze
#

listen i have no idea what im doing when it comes to mods so i cant help at all

native ice
tiny bronze
#

none

native ice
#

Are you sure you're in the right file?

tiny bronze
#

tbh no but i went on steam clicked "brose local game files" and now im here

native ice
#

So browse took you to the hollow knight folder, and in it you right clicked the hollow_knight.app and clicked "Show package contents" and then went to Contents/resources/data/managed/mods

tiny bronze
#

thats what i did

#

see

native ice
#

That looks right, and you're sure there isn't a managed folder anywhere in there? At the bottom of the "level" files

tiny bronze
#

no

#

this is the ende

wtf r u kidding me

fair briar
#

are you admin?

tiny bronze
#

no

fair briar
#

then ask someone that has admin

tiny bronze
#

how

#

this happened after i put pure vessel skin in the custom knight folder

fair briar
#

by going to someone and asking them if they can do this for you

tiny bronze
#

yea idk any admins

limber egret
#

Is it your computer or like a family one?

fair briar
#

well there must be someone who owns the pc

tiny bronze
limber egret
#

Then you are the admin

tiny bronze
#

what then what do i do

limber egret
#

On Windows it's literally just "right click -> open as administrator"

#

But obviously it might not be the same for you

tiny bronze
#

idk what to do

#

right click where? the play button?

native ice
#

But I have an idea that might work

tiny bronze
#

what is it

native ice
# tiny bronze what is it

cd ~/Desktop && echo "~/Library/Application\ Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow\ Knight/hollow_knight.app/Contents/MacOS/*" > hk.command && chmod +x hk.command Try running this in terminal, I'm not positive it'll work but I believe it should make a shortcut on your desktop that'll launch hollow knight and won't have that issue

tiny bronze
#

ok

#

nothing happened

fair briar
#

wait whats the problem here

tiny bronze
native ice
fair briar
#

yes, but what were you trying to do

tiny bronze
#

open the game

#

with mods

fair briar
#

and why not open it via steam?

native ice
#

Cause it gave that error

tiny bronze
fair briar
#

right click steam and click "run as administrator" and try again

#

idk how that works on mac

limber egret

To put the skins in

fair briar
#

aaahh

#

that makes sense

tiny bronze
#

if i slap my computer will it work

fair briar
#

so, go to the same place you went to when you installed skins

#

but not exactly

#

go to the hollow knight.app

#

and double click it

glacial kayak
tiny bronze
fair briar
#

put?

tiny bronze
#

do you mean where i put the skins or where i got the skins

#

bcs where i got the skins is from a website

fair briar
#

no go to the hollow knight.app

#

where you pressed open package contents

tiny bronze
#

ohhhh

fair briar
#

but this time don't click open package contents

#

but double click the .app

tiny bronze
#

same problem

#

no permission

fair briar
#

did you have permission before putting in mods?

tiny bronze
#

wait what

#

i kinda just threw the skin in

fair briar
#

you never ran hk before that?

limber egret
#

As in have you been able to open hollow knight on your computer at all?

tiny bronze
#

yes

#

but when i put the skin it said no permission

fair briar
tiny bronze
#

idk

#

it says restart your computer

#

so ill see you in a bit
