its working for my friend, but not me

native ice
#

Reset your installer using the instructions in the link below, then move it on to your desktop and run it as administrator and make sure to give it the right pathing #archived-modding-help message

tired shard
#

i could reinstall the installer and figure that out

west bane
#

do you know how to add launch options to steam? if so can you try -force-d3d9

dusty stream
#

32 or 64 info is found here right?

native ice
tired shard
#

nope

native ice
tired shard
#

not for me no

#

i'll try running it in administrator

west bane
dusty stream
#

w10

native ice
# tired shard not for me no

Well first, go to the installer, (for mi1) make sure there's not a button that says "Enable Modding API" at the bottom, or (for mi2) search for the modding api in the mod list and make sure it's installed and enabled

west bane
#

type my pc into windows search, then hit properties on this pc

dusty stream
#

it does say that

tired shard
#

i don't see a button labled enable modding api, nor a search bar in the mod list

#

wait nevermind im blind, found search bar

wicked cliff
native ice
tired shard
#

@native ice i'm not seeing anything titled modding api

west bane
#

do you both happen to have any virtual display adapters installed like citrix

dusty stream
#

aw dang my old job did require that and I never uninstalled it

native ice
tired shard
#

i did that already

west bane
tired shard
#

yes i went to the second pin, deleted the files, verified integrity and fixed, but its saying something about modding api, which i don't see here

#

i didn't see it install anything

west bane
tired shard
#

although if it did automatically, which i for some reason didn't see that word until now, i'll launch hollow knight and see

wicked cliff
tired shard
#

yep that didn't do anything

#

i don't think my modinstaller has the modding api thing. if thats even possible..

native ice
tired shard
#

i think 1, since mine does look like that

native ice
#

And the box there that says "Revert back to unmodded" is that there?

tired shard
#

yes

native ice
#

Well, try benchwarp fix from this message.

wicked cliff
#

I'm so sorry for all the trouble, thank you for the assistance.

tired shard
#

well i searched the thing, and there are no files with "ModdingApi.GlobalSettings" in their file name.

#

honestly reinstalling the installer may help, considering its only working because of a glitch, i'm 90% sure of it anyway

#

imma do that, since i know how to activate that "glitch" anyhow

native ice
tired shard
#

i have no idea

native ice
#

What kind of glitch?

tired shard
#

the mod manager is "working" but i don't think it is actually working

#

so i don't think everything installed properly

native ice
#

What makes you think that, was there an error message, or?

tired shard
#

well no, it just, worked, when it wasn't working, i'll explain the best i can in the following

#

when it asked if the path was correct, i clicked no, then it asked it again for some reason, and i clicked yes, and it then "worked"

#

meaning, it asked if the path was correct twice, the first time i said no, the second time i said yes, and it loaded up the mod manager

real jacinth
#

because those were different paths

tired shard
#

were they? oh

real jacinth
#

it asked 2 different locations

#

on different drives

native ice
#

At the bottom, select "Change Default Install Path"

#

Then, from the steam library > right click HK > select properties > local files > browse > and double check the pathing of the file it opens. Then make sure to give the installer that same pathing, it should stop in the Hollow Knight folder with the hollow_knight Application

tired shard
#

i only understand half of that sentence

#

what do you mean by double check the pathing of the file it opens?

native ice
#

When you click browse it'll open a folder, if you're on windows, at the top of it will be a file path (Example image below), take note of the pathing, and lead the installer down that same path

tired shard
#

well i'm at least that far, i have the path, but where do i put it?

#

wait i think i got it

#

actually, maybe not

#

sorry, i'm a crippling idiot with this kind of stuff

proven sandal
#

I'm trying to get mine working right now

#

Keeps saying my game isn't on the latest stable version

native ice
dense shuttleBOT
native ice
tired shard
#

yes but it isn't wanting to put the pathing in, like i cant drag the pathing into anywhere

#

unless i make a new folder for it and drop it in

proven sandal
#

It needs a beta access code to convert to 1.4.3.2

native ice
proven sandal
#

Oh alright

#

Oh for private betas

tired shard
#

it pops up with a menu wanting an input, but the pathing isn't a option for the input, and i can't add it either apparently

native ice
#

If you get what I mean

tired shard
#

oh, jeez i really am an idiot..

#

yeah i found that..

#

okay so i set the pathing to that. i think

native ice
#

And once you're at the right folder, highlight the Hollow Knight folder, and select ok

tired shard
#

did that, do i launch hollow knight and hope its working?

native ice
#

Maybe close the installer and reopen it first

tired shard
#

oh lovely it installed modding api now

native ice
#

nice

tired shard
#

why it didn't do that before, i haven't the slightest clue

#

sooo launch hollow knight, pray it works now yes?

native ice
#

Yep

astral charm
#

is it possible to reopen path of pain through save data editing

tired shard
#

i see modding api in the corner

#

mods tab spotted

native ice
tired shard
#

well i'm trying to do the multiplayer one with my friend.. now to figure out that..

native ice
tired shard
#

oo i think its working.. i think once my friend gets back we can test

#

the modding api thing is there, i've got the thing i've been looking for.. now if they can join me.. lets hope

native ice
tired shard
#

we will at that in a sec then, want to see if this at least works to see if we did it right

torpid umbra
#

is there a mod to change the amount of charm slots you have?

native ice
torpid umbra
#

damn, how did i miss that. ty i see it

tired shard
#

i'm sorry to keep asking questions,, but how would i get my friend into my game?

leaden sparrow
#

buy it for them

dusty stream
native ice
proven sandal
#

Okay, so i have some mods installed, but they aren't showing up in my game

tired shard
#

so... whats an ipv4..?

native ice
tired shard
#

oh wait!

#

i clicked myself and saw it

native ice
tired shard
#

i know the port needs to be that, what about the bottom box

#

is it suppose to be my name or their name

native ice
#

Just a nick name for you

tired shard
#

and do i need to be near a bench of is anywhere fine

native ice
#

Anywhere is fine, but you should probably be in the same room

tired shard
#

so it doesn't matter what they type for the "name" ?

native ice
#

nope

tired shard
#

okay.. lets try this

#

do i need to type anything in my boxes?

native ice
#

yes

tired shard
#

guessing the same stuff?

native ice
#

you need to type in your ipv4, the same port, whatever name you want, and you press connect first

tired shard
#

ooooh, okay trying that

#

IT WORKED, thank youuuu and i'm sorry that i'm such an idiot!

mint vale
#

Hey team, when I try to enter certain rooms (eg bathhouse in the city of tears, unlock jiji's cave) I get a message: "Elderbug's words ring in your ears... There's a time and a place for everything, but not now". I'm using randomizer and all its dependencies and the visible healthbar mod. What could be causing this and how do I stop it? Ideally without uninstalling anything

#

Thank you!

native ice
mint vale
#

Ah, thank you!

naive crystal
#

menu for stuff like getting ohko'd in godhome won't show up anymore

#

so i can't disable getting one shot in godhome

native ice
#

uh, is the mod still showing up in the top left of the pause menu?

naive crystal
#

easier pantheon practice is

#

but i'm not sure if that's the mod that does it

#

the ui for the options is usually in the bottom right hand corner of the pause menu

native ice
#

Yea it's easier pantheon practice, have you restarted your game?

naive crystal
#

yeah

#

i did some weird shit earlier with disabling mod api because i wanted to downpatch for speedrunning but i decided not to

#

probably has something to do with it

native ice
#

then you need to renable the modding api

#

Wait

#

no nvm

naive crystal
#

it's enabled

native ice
#

Oh wait

#

Do you have modcommon?

#

I think that easier pantheon practice needs mod common and maybe sere core

naive crystal
#

yeah i have both

native ice
#

installed and enabled?

naive crystal
#

ok it started working again ig

#

i just un and reinstalled

#

but the ui still isn't there

native ice
#

tamershrug okay lol

#

oh

naive crystal
#

i just don't get one shot

native ice
#

hm

naive crystal
#

also i died to p5ab vengefly king

native ice
#

yes

naive crystal
#

wait no

#

p1ab

native ice
#

Oh also, you're in the hall of gods right? Not in godhome or in a boss fight

naive crystal
#

godhome

native ice
#

it only shows up in hall of gods

naive crystal
#

i mean

#

a pantheon

#

oh

#

cool

tired shard
#

yeah its working pretty good, thank you so much for your help

native ice
#

np

tame nymph
#

how do i open up the debug menu

frozen juniper
#

Im trying to install mods on linux, but the mod manager only gives me the option to manually install mods, which I dont think is what i want

native ice
native ice
tame nymph
frozen juniper
native ice
frozen juniper
#

Do i put this in the hollow knight directory?

#

Also thanks, makes my life so much easier!

native ice
frozen juniper
#

Ok, i have the Modinstaller2 and Modinstaller2.p-db on my desktop

#

the first one opens a black notepad, and the second doesnt open at all

native ice
#

mmm, I'm very unfamiliar with linux. Do either of em have an icon?

plain quail
#

off topic, but are mods compatible with 1.5 yet? Or do I need to move to the 1.4 version

frozen juniper
native ice
# frozen juniper yes

Uh, well judging by the icon I'm gonna assume the not p-db is what you want. Does the black notepad say anything?

frozen juniper
#

not that i can tell. Its trying to open it in wine, but it doesnt let me open it with any other application

plain quail
native ice
frozen juniper
#

There isnt an option to do that. only to extract it

native ice
#

uh, well I've got no clue

frozen juniper
#

do you know any people who have played modded on linux?

native ice
#

Unfortunately not, but someone might come around and see your message later

modest fiber
#

I'm still having issues regarding my game saving when I use a randomizer

#

I sit at the bench. The little save icon appears but it won't let me use the menu to quit to the main menu. Someone told me to Alt+F4 cause the game supposedly did save but it didn't and I lost 2 hours of progress

native ice
keen hazel
#

is there a 1.5 mod installer?

modest fiber
#

I don't believe so

keen hazel
#

hm ok ty

native ice

hexed folio
#

pliant lantern
#

What is "the thing"?

#

Also, you shouldn't have HK open when doing any modding

hexed folio
#

hexed folio
#

#

and no EnemyHPBar.ddl

native ice
modest blaze
#

native ice
modest blaze
#

ohhhhhh

#

now i see

sterile furnace
#

Also river my modinstaller is being weird

#

Ill send pictures to show you

native ice
# hexed folio ModdingAPI

When you run the installer it installs the api automatically, then you just download mods. Not sure what you're talking about

hexed folio
#

run the installer?

native ice
#

?i

dense shuttleBOT
hexed folio
#

i downloaded the file not an application

#

ooooooooooooooooooh

#

and it doesnt wanna work

sterile furnace
#

When i first load it up this is what i see and if i press the white box..

#

This shows up but no mods.

#

Even if i type in a mod name it doesnt show mods.

#

Is there a new version of it?

native ice
sterile furnace
#

Ive pressed details but nothing helps

native ice
sterile furnace
#

Oh- welp time to open discord on my laptop so i can see pins

#

Oh- nvm lol

native ice
#

found em?

sterile furnace
#

I don't know how to do any of that is the problem-

hexed folio
#

wait is the git gud patch a good idea?

sterile furnace
#

Is there a video on how to fix the modinstaller river?

native ice
sterile furnace
#

Hmm.. well i don't know how to do it-

native ice
#

Do you want me to walk you through it?

sterile furnace
#

Yes please

hexed folio
native ice
#

So first, find your installer (the zote head) and delete it, then check the rest of your desktop, if there's a file called "AU" anywhere, delete that aswell

sterile furnace
#

Find in my files?

native ice
#

on your desktop

#

by the looks of it

sterile furnace
#

I saw one but in my downloads but its gone now even though i didnt delete it.

native ice
#

looks like it's right behind the error in the picture you sent

sterile furnace
#

No i mean an au file

native ice
#

Well it should be on your desktop, but if you don't see one thats fine

sterile furnace
#

Okay whats next? Just reinstall the mod loader?

native ice
#

nope, reset the mod installer

#

are you on windows?

sterile furnace
#

Yeah im on windows

native ice
#

okay, on your keyboard, press Windows Key + R at the same time

sterile furnace
#

Okay done

#

The run menu popped up. What do i type in?

native ice
#

paste in %appdata%\..\Local

sterile furnace
#

Now what?

native ice
#

and click "ok"

sterile furnace
#

Yep did that

native ice
#

then in the folder that opens, find the folder called ModInstaller and delete it

#

Next, are you on chrome?

sterile furnace
#

Uhh its still deleting-

#

Chrome as in what?

native ice
#

Google Chrome

sterile furnace
#

I can open it up lol

native ice
#

Is that your main browser?

sterile furnace
#

Ye

native ice
#

okay, so open it then in the top right corner look for 3 dots lined up vertically

sterile furnace
#

Ye

#

Now what?

native ice
#

and click "Settings", then scroll down to "Privacy and security" and select "Clear browsing data" and clear "Download History" and "Cached images and files"

sterile furnace
#

So basically clear my chrome completely?-

#

Mostly-

native ice
#

don't have to completely, just cached images and files. But download history is optional

sterile furnace
#

Well i was planning on doing that eventually anyway lol so that just made me do it sooner. Anyway now what?

native ice
#

Then just download the installer and move it to your desktop

#

?i

dense shuttleBOT
sterile furnace
#

Alright! Thank you so much

#

you've helped me so so much river. thank you lol

native ice
#

Np! itssoulgood

sterile furnace
#

uhh that didnt work-

#

the same error came up-

#

is it because i downpatched then?

native ice
#

downpatched what? The game?

sterile furnace
#

yeah. i downpatched to 1.2.2.1 for speedrunning but before i downpatched and tried the mod loader without going to 1.4.3.2 this error wouldnt pop up.

#

so is downpatching the reason why?

native ice
sterile furnace
#

no i have 1.4.3.2 as well. i can load both of them whenever i want because i used the load an external steam game system that steam has so i can use them both.

#

here ill show you my steam to show what i mean

native ice
#

ah, well. Are you sure that your installer is pathed to the correct install?

sterile furnace
#

it should be because it pathed it to 1.4.3.2 before i downpatched for the first time i installed it

#

The hollow_knight one is 1.2.2.1

#

incase thats not obvious-

frozen tree
#

Have they updated the modding thing?

sterile furnace
#

i asked that too

#

but i just installed it again

#

and its still for 1.4.3.2 so i dont think so

native ice
native ice
sterile furnace
#

it said pathed but it didnt say anything else.

#

should i do all those steps again and check?-

native ice
#

Just reset it again (Delete the modinstaller file in Local)

sterile furnace
#

alright.

#

should i check for exe files again?

native ice
#

don't have to but if it's the same error then probably

sterile furnace
#

alright

native ice
#

just the au file, don't needa delete the installer

sterile furnace
#

theres no au files

#

it might have just pathed wrong the second time

#

am i gonna need to delete the cache again?

native ice
#

no

#

just reset it, then launch it, and instead of clicking "Yes" double check the path it has is right

sterile furnace
#

okay

#

I dont know if this is right for 1.4.3.2 or not-

#

Sooo-

native ice
#

That's likely the 1.4.3.2, but you can manually path it there if you click no

sterile furnace
#

okay im gonna click no just so i can double check

#

okay now that i pressed no now what?- im so confused-

native ice
#

did it open a different menu?

sterile furnace
#

yeah it opened the browse for folder menu

native ice
#

then find your 1.4.3.2 install

sterile furnace
#

i dont know what it is.

native ice
#

Where'd you make your 1.2.2.1 install?

sterile furnace
#

I did it like 2 months ago i dont remember. I dont know what im doing.

native ice
sterile furnace
#

okay

#

uhh its saying its outdated- i think they did update it-

#

OH-

#

im stupid-

#

its saying the debug mod is-

native ice
#

Hm?

sterile furnace
#

i thought it was saying the installer was outdated but it was the debug mod

#

also its working now

native ice
#

Oh nice lol

sterile furnace
#

thank you so much for all your help

graceful hawk
#

i seem to be unable to launch the mod installer, when i try to launch it, either in normal or admin mode, it starts a window, immediatly closes it, and then nothing, afterward i tried redownloading it, it give me an error saying that access to the path to AU.exe is denied, afterwards i redownloaded from github, and get the same problem as i started with

lost root
#

trying to find debugmod 1.3.3 for Hollow Knight 1.2.2.1 because it has working savestates; but, I can only find the sourcecode. current debug mod has a problem that prevents it being used for speedrun practice. The source code will not build. If anyone still has a copy of the old debug mod before they screwed up savestates, please let me know. I am trying to practice all skills watchers and I need quick repetitions to develop the muscle memory on it.

native ice
lost root
#

The problem is it respawns at spire bench. I need to create to create a savestate right outside of watcher arena.

native ice
#

ah yea, uhh. Cheat in dreamgate with a save editor?

lost root
#

No. In all skills, you don't have dreamgate at all to my knowledge. That also doesn't really help. Basically, what I need is the functionality of minisavestates; but, in a form that doesn't completely break the game.

graceful hawk
lost root
#

minisavestates is buggy as all get out.

native ice
lost root
#

dreamgate would not reset the fight; but, just escape from it.

native ice
lost root
#

Keep in mind that rapid repetition is how you master anything and anything that detracts from it impedes the creation of muscle memory.

native ice
#

or you could even save quit just before beating the last one and repeating

#

Yes it impedes but that can be made up for with even more repetition

lost root
#

Not really......

native ice
#

Then how bout practicing in 1.4.3.2, does that change anything?

lost root
#

No. 1.4.3.2 is a completely different fight. Movement is completely different.

#

You cannot chain ddarks in 1.4.3.2

native ice
#

Mmk, well those are my suggestions but maybe someone will come along and get you the right version of debug mod, try asking in #modding-discussion or #speedrunning as well, they might have more info

sterile furnace
#

River dop you know how to shoot in the hollow point mod?-

#

Wait figured it out-

#

How do you access the custom knight menu?-

native ice
sterile furnace
#

Okay!

#

Uhh my character is invisible and idk how-

native ice
#

oh yea, forgot. Uhh unfortunately hollow point and custom knight don't really work together

sterile furnace
#

Oh.

#

Ima ininstall custom knight then lol

#

Well thats sad

native ice
#

very

sterile furnace
#

Its also sad that you cant use normal spells in hollowpoint-

sterile furnace
#

Uhh why cant i heal?- i dont know if its hollow point or what but the game wont let me heal

native ice
sterile furnace
#

Well that i dont like ;-;

#

Oh well-

#

Time to build up adrenaline before the soul tyrant fight

#

Wait- I CANT GET OUT OF THE AREA!-

#

I CANT USE THE DOWN ABILITY AND I NEED TO TO GET OUT!

#

What the hell do i do???

native ice
#

Are you doing rando?

bleak viper
#

after I download the mod and choose the installation path, it says i need to update the game... what do i do (i've already tried reseting it on the pinned message)

sterile furnace
#

No im not doing rando

#

Just normal with hollow point

dense shuttleBOT
native ice
#

to respawn enemies

spiral condor
#

why doesnt hollow point work, adrenaline doesnt charge and guns dont shoot\

sterile furnace
#

You need to press ur focus ability to pull out the gun

spiral condor
#

no like the guns, even when pulled out

bleak viper
#

will i still have my save files from newer versions? i don't want to lose a 109% file

spiral condor
#

dont shoot

#

at all

native ice
modern violet
#

hello

native ice
#

Hey

#

native ice
native ice
modern violet
#

native ice
#

Then, uh. You may want to move to a different channel

sterile furnace
#

FUCK I JUST BIT MY LIP WHILE CHEWING ON GUM!- FUCKING PAIN! ;-;

#

Uhh river its not letting me quit to menu

native ice
#

uh, wdym?

sterile furnace
#

Whenever i select yes it saves but doesnt do anything else

native ice
#

oh, welp. Not really sure how to fix that

sterile furnace
#

I- tf?- now its working-

native ice
#

o

sterile furnace
#

Wtf!?! Now its not!

#

Uhh-

#

Hold on im gonna send a video of what happens

#

Sometimes it does work but other times it doesnf

native ice
#

yea, that's a bug, not really sure how to fix it tho. If it works sometimes that's good enough lol

#

lucky it works at all

sterile furnace
#

Should i do alt+ f4 so i can close the game and reopen it?

native ice
old vortex
#

whenever i setup modinstaller the savefile disappears and i can't even start a new game

#

what about it

bruh

#

@native ice , just an update on the issue that you were assisting me with earlier. I found a copy of debug 1.3.3 pinned in HKR discord of all places. So, I can finally finish out my practice.

elder cobalt
#

dumb question: do i have to relaunch the game any time i enable or disable mods

stoic solstice
#

whenever i try to run the mod installer it gives me this mesage

native ice
sterile furnace
#

Leaving works now! I hust had to restart my game

native ice
#

Whenever you're changing anything make sure the game is closed, and if it's with installer files make sure the installer is closed

native ice
dense shuttleBOT
stoic solstice
kindred condor
#

so it's been around a month since I last booted ModInstaller

#

and this popped up (AU one)

native ice
bleak viper
#

why won't it allow me to download some mods? im on the manager and it has an error message when i try to install

bleak viper
native ice
# bleak viper

Oh, hmm... well there's not really a certain fix for that as far as I'm aware. First, try the latest pinned message + run the installer as administrator. And if that doesn't work you may just need to manually install mods

stoic solstice
#

so im dumb and didnt know what a "pinned mesage" was until now

kindred condor
#

we all been there

stoic solstice
#

@native ice thanks btw

kindred condor
#

btw any news on 1.5 mod compatibility yet?

native ice
stoic solstice
#

question does the mod installer also work with 1221 or no

native ice
sterile furnace
#

River do you know how much adrenaline you need to heal in hollowpoint? When i had one and tried to heal it didnt heal me

native ice
#

focusing is pointless

sterile furnace
#

Oh- okay

old vortex
#

@native ice help

native ice
old vortex
#

why

native ice
#

Because you admitted to hollowpirate ing the game, I'm not gonna help you

old vortex
#

i cant afford the game tho?

native ice
#

Pirating is still illegal, this is still the official server for the game, and if you can't afford the game then that's unfortunate but I'm still not gonna help you

old vortex
#

mhmhmh

#

distributing the game is illegal

#

not downloading it

native ice
#

Not according to google

old vortex
#

nah bro

Man, you can't pirate Hollow Knight. The game is reaaaaaally cheap, you probably pay for other things way more expensive. And don't lie please, it's not like you cannot afford it, you don't want to pay for the game. I can understand if you are having problems with the bank, or something like that, but don't go pirating things like that, and even less if we are talking about the most excelent Metroidvania ever made. I'm not going mad/toxic at you, just, don't be like that, it stinks when someone does.

Uhh i cant sit at the benches i deploy in the benchwarp mod. Is that normal?

native ice
sterile furnace
#

Uhh what do i disable?

native ice
#

I can't remember exactly

sterile furnace
#

Theres warp only, unlock all, show room name, use toom named, enable deploy, always toggle all, doot warp, enable hotkeys.

vernal rain
#

did you by chance deploy it above ground? may be worth a try to just try again

sterile furnace
#

That made the bench i placed disappear

vernal rain
#

just try again, can't go wrong this time

sterile furnace
#

I tried multiple times

#

It didnt work

red hawk
#

there should be another tab named something similar to settings to the right of the deploy button

vernal rain
#

then i actually don't know what's wrong, sorry

#

try changing the settings under that

last time i had problems with benchwarp, i went into another room, back and placed the bench slightly different

There's a single and simple reality, if you can't pay for something, you'll have wait until you can pay it, otherwise, you're stealing, i wouldn't mind if we would were speaking of other things, like, i don't know, musical tastes, or whatever tho, but instead, just think how you would feel if you make a game, that probably takes you years, and very much nights of non-sleep and someone comes and says, "nah, i don't want to pay you, instead, im going to take it for free, lmao"

#

Again, i'm not the better person on the world, but as i said earlier, don't do this things, it's bad for you, and it's bad for the team that created the game, no one wins.

tbf i first discovered the game by pirating it so i did a wrong but since then i've bought the game twice, once on switch and once on steam

maybe 5% of copies are pirated

not a big difference

thats a large number

5% of like 7 million is alot elderC

copper geode

exactly

still the 95% profit is redeemable

My biggest problem with it was that they didn't seem to understand that if you pirate, you aren't gonna get help from the official server for the game

thats 5% less budget for silksong 🙃

5% of 2.800.000 is alot elderC

they're not a giant corporation that has giant teams and makes alot of games

lmao yep

damn

copper geode

and maybe silksong

#

if it comes out

pliant lantern
#

Generally speaking, "corporation" as a term is used to refer to a large company. Team Cherry is three people, and they use whatever money they can scrap together to pay contract parties to help them with things (like Larkin with music)

copper geode
#

and those 3 people made one of my favourite games of all time so i have huge respect for them

spiral tangle

Referring to a small indie team as a "corporation" is true in one legal sense, but not by a social language sense

I don't know if it's a modding issue or something else, but I've downgraded the game to 1.4.3.2 to be able to use custom knight and now, the map in the game I was playing is completely broken.

  1. Make sure you have Mod Common
  2. Make sure your file structure is correct
long flume
#

i've extracted all the files

limber egret
#

Daughter of Hallownest comes with a bunch of extra features which extend beyond custom knight

#

if you click through those folders in hollowknightdata you'll find another folder eventually labeled daughter of hallownest

#

You need to copy that folder into your custom knight folder

#

All skins must be:
custom knight/[folder with name of skin]/[image files]

It does not, but you will have to point your installer to the correct install

also what is the 1432 download command, i can only find up to 1424

undone vault
#

if you want to keep using mods, downpatch to 1.4.3.2

real jacinth
#

The main issue is that mods will have to be updated individually by their original maker, or someone else will have to take the code and update it. This is not something where a fix to the API or a few mods will do it. It affects almost all mods and a lot of modders are now inactive. Team Cherry made some major back-end game engine changes, so updating every mod that's been made is not trivial. From a player perspective, the changes are pretty minor ones, so playing on 1.4.3.2 should be just fine.

what’s dis @fair briar

fair briar
#

2 guides, one for hosting and one for joining/installing HKMP, a different mod from the one on the installer (which has more features and is better)

meager lintel
#

what does it stand for

fair briar
#

Hollow Knight MultiPlayer

meager lintel
#

should’ve guessed

#

how’s it better/more features?

fair briar
#

has more stable connections, and to see all the new features, in-game go to the mods settings/options and see for yourself

pliant lantern
# meager lintel how’s it better/more features?

Four very notable features:

  • It has a method of supporting skins
  • It actually works with any valid port (the other multiplayer mod only works with one port)
  • It only uses one mod, instead of the need for hosts to have two and clients to have 1.
  • It allows for Servers to be hosted, that people can easily join/leave, instead of needing to depend on one Host playing.

And yeah, while there's a lot of bug-fix stuff, the most important part there compared to the other Multiplayer mod is that the other one essentially doesn't work for players on WiFi, and/or requires pretty frequent full-game restarts (as any internet hiccup breaks everything with that one)
