Im in the vc and im planning to stream myself attempting to mod and failing, can someone watch and help

fluid wadi
#

im struggling so hard with file paths

#

i dont know where to find hollow knight

#

i tried looking through this pc

#

tho desktop wont open

pliant lantern
#

Desktop doesn't have any folders, that's why

#

This PC is your root folder

#

Steam's browse button showed you exactly which folder it's in, and the bar at the top has the entire path, one folder at a time

#

you just have to follow those folders

vast crest
#

Mmm i feel ignored and i really need help. like someone to watch me and walk me through what i have to do

Nope

What things does the qol mod do

delicate grail
#

Is there a way to install a 112% game file? I already beat the game on my switch, and as good of a game as it is, 112%’ing it again isn’t exactly appealing atm 😅

native ice
# frank trellis What things does the qol mod do

Quality of life stuff as the name suggests, i.e. text moves faster, intro cutscenes are skipped or quicker, some glitches that are used for speedrunning are restord (lever skips, inventory dropping, etc.), and some other things. If you want to disable any of these features or see a list you can navigate to the globalsettings file located with your save files

copper sable
native ice
delicate grail
#

Cool!

native ice

Scroll down a bit

#

And do you know how to access your save files to put it in?

its a json and bak file

i cant open it

delicate grail
#

So just to clarify I want to put the file in the hollow knight folder, yes?

native ice
# frank trellis its a json and bak file

open the json one, if it's not letting you open it it's probably because the pc doesnt know what to open it with, right click the file, select "Open with" and choose to open it with notepad

What does fix dashmaster mean

how do u install the various skins for cutom knight on mac

native ice
#

only difference between mac and windows would be file path

delicate grail
#

For some reason I can’t find any game file when searching 🤔

native ice
#

game or save?

#

and what os?

delicate grail
#

Save file, sorry

#

Windows

native ice
#

Press Windows + R on your keyboard and paste in %APPDATA%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\ then click "Ok"

delicate grail
#

Ok so I just need to put the 112 save here correct?

native ice
#

yep

#

make sure it's just the .dat file and not in a folder

delicate grail
#

Lastly, when downloading the 112 file, it downloads as a zip, and opening the zip reveals multiple files, each with their own .dat file. Do you know which file is correct or should it not matter / I wing it?

native ice
delicate grail
#

Gotcha

#

Alrighty, thanks for the help!

Hopefully i'm putting this in the correct channel but when i open the mod installer it says that I need to update to the current, most sable update. Iv'e looked it up but i cant find a way to update the game. By chance does anybody know how?

you have to use the mod installer @tame sundial

#

a link to download it is in the abt of this chat

native ice

Not necessarily no

tame sundial

the radiance one?

slim kestrel
#

you don't have to?

i do have it installed

do i put the mod in the api or next to it in the mods folder

native ice
#

Uh.. those should be the same place and neither

#

Oh wait

#

no in the mods folder misread

tame sundial
#

is there a link to the api?

native ice
#

But what exactly is the problem? You put it in the mods folder and it's not showing up in the top left of the main menu

#

i ahve both installed

native ice
#

the radiance host one is the same as whatever other one you're talking about

#

So, you put the mods dll directly in the mods folder?

tame sundial
#

yes

native ice
#

And was the game closed when you put it in the folder?

tame sundial
#

yes

Where did you get the mod from?

Hi, I'm trying to install mods however the ModInstaller application continues to say I don't own the game. The game is installed on my steam account, I own it, and I have executed it before on this computer. I have however not installed the game on the default directory and installed it one of my other 1tb HDDs is that a problem?

stray kelp
#

are you on 1.4?

tacit cave
#

Of hollow knight?

stray kelp
#

yeah

tacit cave
#

No I'm on the latest version

#

Do I have to sign in to any betas or something?

stray kelp
#

you'll need to revert to 1.4.3.2

#

no

#

i dont think you will

tacit cave
#

1.4.3.2 is a option if I go into the beta settings for the game, is that what I should switch to?

stray kelp
#

yes

tacit cave
#

Right the games just updating quickly, thank you

stray kelp
#

np

copper aspen
#

how do you go to the beta settings

stray kelp

#

Also just a question, why does ModInstaller not support later versions?

copper aspen
#

just relesed

#

i think

tacit cave
#

Ah okay

stray kelp
#

im pretty sure its just because its released and they need to update the installer

tacit cave
#

My ModInstaller still asks me to purchase the game

stray kelp
#

hmmmm

tacit cave
#

I am online, signed into steam on a account that owns the game

stray kelp
#

dont know then sorry

#

No worries, maybe someone else can help if they see my messages 😛

inner glade
fair ibex
tacit cave
#

Well a import question first

#

Should my ModInstaller executable be located in my HK directory?

#

I answered that myself, moving it there fixed it

#

thank you both for helping

native ice
fair briar
#

desktop is the best place

native ice
#

i assume you moved it out of your downloads folder which probably fixed it

tacit cave
#

I moved it from my downloads folder into my HK folder

#

I don't see why it being in my downloads makes it an issue

native ice
#

because the downloads folder has restricted permissions

tacit cave
#

Right, then I'll keep it somewhere else. Should it not be in my HK install directory?

native ice
#

i mean it probably can be but that's just inconvenient, desktop is the best place, folder on the desktop is fine

tacit cave
#

Alright I'm just currently reinstalling my game because I somehow broke it again

gaunt pelican

Thanks but what exactly am i looking for in the file

#

Also before you sent it, in uninstalled and reinstalled the game and reinstalled the mods, now the randomizer isnt working, normally it says to load it on the title screen, not it isnt

#

What do i do

tacit cave
#

I'm playing with these mods, however you can now focus even if your full hp. Is this a mod causing this?

native ice
tacit cave
#

I have never installed that no

native ice
native ice

#

Which is how?

thats the thing, in the mods menu on hollow knight it doesnt show up

#

but it says its installed

native ice
#

This

native ice
fair briar
#

becnhwarp fix in pins

gaunt pelican
#

yea, it says its installed in the top left, but no button to turn it on

#

it says this on the title screen

#

but says this in mods

fair briar
#

so theres no problem

#

not all mods show up there

#

not all mods are togglable

gaunt pelican
#

ok

native ice
#

actually wait, you don't even have enemy rando, that's the one with the button

tacit cave
gaunt pelican
#

wait, do i need rando 3 and enemy rando?

native ice
tacit cave
#

I've tried both already 🤣

native ice
native ice
gaunt pelican
#

ah ok, i thought rando 3 did them as well

#

leme add that and see what happens

tacit cave
# native ice "both" there's 4 methods

I've already installed QoL mod and uninstalled it because I thought it was the thing causing this, and I don't see how save editing is going to fix a bug in the code somewhere

#

I've manually copied the dll to the Mods directory, as well as extracted the zip and executed that bat script

native ice
#

But if that's not causing it then I'm not certain

pliant lantern
tacit cave
native ice
#

wa it

#

I misread...

#

Shit

tacit cave
pliant lantern
#

Yes

native ice
#

Yea, you can focus at full hp in vanilla..

tacit cave
#

My previous save has got like 100 hours and I've never noticed that your joking

#

My bad guys 😐

pliant lantern
#

When healing, you stop focusing once it's full. But if you press again, you can "waste" your soul to heal more

#

That's used with certain charms

#

Like Dreamshield, and Spore Shroom

native ice
#

I don't know how i misread that lmao

tacit cave
#

Thank you both for the trouble 🤣

pliant lantern
#

It happens

#

Especially confusing when it sounds very similar to a common problem

#

And a lot of people don't explain their actual problems well

tacit cave
#

It's just habit to always look at my hp during a fight so i can tell if I need to heal the next break or not

#

So apparently for the entirety of my last run I have never wasted any soul healing when I didn't need to so that felt really strange when I started this new run with mods

gaunt pelican
#

Quickly i just wana say thanks as everything is working now

restive whale
#

i can't seem to use the "all charms" cheat in my new save, trying to test something out

restive whale
#

yeah

restive whale
#

ah

should i do it on a first page save or remove it

native ice
#

Remove it, just having it breaks it

restive whale

#

ngl i had a hunch it was moresaves

native ice
#

Any save you made on slots 5+ will still be there when you uninstall/reinstall moresaves, just won’t be able to access em without it and I can’t guarantee your save won’t get damaged

Wow thanks a lot, are there some major changes downgrading the game or just some glitches corretion wil go lost?

weak tendon
#

only thing is that Some Glitches or Bugs will be more happen, but not much more than normaly on 1.15

#

but I would recommend you to do an Copy of your saves, just to be save that your Saves can't get corupted etc.

sure, thanks a lot you're super helpfull

When i run the Modinstaller and enable the moding API then i try to run Hollow Knight and it craches.
I reset the ModIntaller and deleted all the mods and tried verifying the game files thru steam and it still crashes.
I didn't have any mods enabled or installed.
Does somebody know how can i fix this?

#

If you want your game to run properly then delete Assembly-CSharp.dll and verify the files again. Your game also needs to be on version 1.4.3.2 for mods to work. Check the pinned messages

I just downloaded hollow knight on steam and wanted to try a randomizer but whenever I try to download the mod installer it says that i do not have the current version of the game. What do i do?

change it to 1.4.3.2

#

right click holow kngiht

click properties

#

go to beta

then find 1.4.3.2

but im not sure

u might try asking someone else

If you get the version from the mod installer then you'll have save states for sure.

Hi, I've been following a video on installing mods by Culfy, from March of this year. I'm not sure if you know of this video, or how good or bad it may be. Anyway, I've followed their video the whole way through, and when I launch HK, in the top left it says Modding Api, but no other mods, despite the fact that I installed and enabled debug mod. Do you know why this may be the case? I haven't been able to get any other mods to work either.

hey, i tried following the instructions in the pinned section for installing mods w/ the new update n stuff but for some reason whenever i boot up the game and open the mod menu in options, there are no mods in it and it wont let me exit back to the main menu, anyone got a fix?

lavish prism
#

now this may sound very dumb, I hope it doesn't, but since HK is in fullscreen, and windowed was introduced in the newest version while I'm in the 1.2.2.1, LiveSplit is always below Hollow Knight. Can I have it above HK somehow? 😅

could you list what mods I need to install the first time?

hey still not getting the rando map mod to work

anyone know a solution

I want to unlock the whole map cause im doing a randomizer

limber egret

And the modding API (obviously) and then your debug mod.

limber egret
#

Actually somebody said above that you need to open your file, then quit out completely (close the game) and it should work on a restart

Speaking of maps, I know there is a .xcf somewhere with each room on a different layer for easily setting up maps of a rando room. My hard drive that had a copy of that file melted, and I can't find it again. Anyone recognize or know where it is?

wispy falcon

Can you see anything that's wrong in this clip? I tried going through everything important. Still really unsure about what's going wrong. I've also uninstalled and reinstalled the mods multiple times but to no avail.

I got the map mod from the mod installer where else?

Hi, how can i update my game? I thought it was updated fully but apparently not?

frank trellis
#

you have to update back

#

or at least i think

#

mods arent supported with 1.5

#

im pretty sure you have to use 1.4.3.2

#

How do i make it 1.4.3.2?

frank trellis
#

open steam and go to hollow knight

#

click on the gear icon

#

properties

#

then go to betas

#

and in the drop down menu 1.4.3.2 should be listed

thank you!

#

is there any difference between 1.5 and 1.4.3.2 that i should know about?

Hey guys! Just getting into modding and there are really 2 mods that I would be truly interested in, the 1 that would allow for me to change the costume of the knight, and one that would just give me double strength ( I have realized i suck too much to "git gud" and want to experience the story and exploration without too much change ), what would these be called/could I do this?

Go to your hollow knight installation, right click hollow_knight.app click open package contents, open the Resources folder, open the Data folder, open the Managed folder, then open the Mods folder then create a folder and name it Disabled

I'm pretty sure the problem I'm having is maps aren't randomized and somehow the mod missed me picking it up (since it isn't in Recent Items)

from friend-
it either

  1. crashes immediately upon starting a new game (it freezes for a second then shuts down)
  2. it gets to the loading screen and infinitely loads (I've waited a full 20 minutes then just task ended it cause it will NOT close via any normal means)

the one time it loaded into kings pass I ended up dying to 3 enraged crystal guardians and it glitched me into the dream sphere where I couldn't pause, move, etc, had to task manager out again
couldn't load the save file again without immediate crashing again, so ended up clearing that and I've been trying to start a new save file since

but i've checked steam and as far as i know i'm on the latest update? So what gives?

Screenshot your custom Knight folder

#

You need to unzip the folder

#

I assume you right click it

#

Then click extract or unzip

#

After that make sure your folder just has the images in it, not another folder inside that

#

(just like the default folder)

#

Screenshot the inside of the skin folder

limber egret
#

Okay, good stuff. Do you have mod common?

#

I can't tell from the video

#

Looks like a no from the screenshot, actually

#

Enabled, you mean?

#

That's your mod installer you're talking about. There's a mod on there called mod common

#

Also you need to make sure your game is closed when you install it

#

Once you have that it should just work

#

Try to make sure you switch skins in a room with not much in it

#

Like a stag station for example

#

This will prevent some of the weirder bugs that can pop up (like Geo being invisible)

#

Godhome is also fine, there's not much in there

ivory karma
#

oh thats why that happens

limber egret
#

You can help to prevent it by moving the geo.png file from default into any of your skin folders without custom Geo.

#

Not sure why Geo is the thing that is most affected by it

Hi! I also have a question. I've just got Hollow Knight, after buying it already for Switch, so I wanted to play it with a randomiser, since I've already completed it. I'm following Relyea's video about it, but whenever I try opening the installer, it just keeps saying I don't have the most recent version, which I find unlikely, since I checked, and I'm on it, and I also just got it today, and also, I'm pretty sure the game isn't being updated anymore...
