no all mods start when a save is loaded so it shouldnt
false
Okay thanks a lot 
but the update won't affect them
thats what i read from multiple mod devs and their github pages so i have just been going with that
that makes more sense if i think about it lol
if i try to install the hollowpoint mod it says that it cant find mod common even though it is literally installed
wdym says it can't find modcommon
thats why im confused
how do you know it says that
when i load up mod installer it says mod common may be needed for hollow point README and whne i click install on hollow point it does nothing
how long did you wait
about 5-6 minutes now every other mod popped up with the install progress immediately even if they took 10 minutes to install
i am not going to bother with mi1 anymore... go download mi2 (the message attached is for windows)
alright that helped got it downloaded now
nice
hey, so i installed the mod api and got a few mods working but for some reason it says that benchwarp isn't loading correctly. Is there a required mod for benchwarp that I'm missing? or perhaps theres a different problem? Thanks!
modcommon
perfect, I'll try that
hm, so I tried that and it still says "FAILED TO LOAD". It also says to check modlog.txt, but I can't seem to find where that is
did you close the game when you installed it
screenshot your installer and title screen
that's not the installer
oh, i apologize, what is it exactly that youre looking for?
you're not using the installer?
so here are the steps I took: I installed the api by replacing the hollow_knight_data folder in my steam files with the mod api folder
then i added the .dll files to the mods folder manually
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages. 
you probably added an old version
and you have randomizer 2, which is very very old
Ooooh ok this is much better, thanks a bunch!
and yeah it was an old version, the installer automatically updated for me š
Hi guys, could you help me with something? in the game, in the achievements bar, nothing is showing, can you help me? I don't know how this happened as I didn't look before installing the mods so I have no idea if this is because of the game or because of the mods (sorry if I wrote something wrong, I'm from Brazil and I'm still learning English)
the mod installer says i have to update my game even though when i go in to steam there is no update avaliable
thx
just had the same question ^^'
any1 know what skin this guy is using
Finallyā¦ā¦
I've been challenging this for more than a year I finally made it...
I'm really happy now

a question where I could find Little Fox skin??
does anyone know how to help me? I have mods and custom knights installed but when I open up hollow knights the mods tab is empty. Am I putting the mods in the wrong place or something else?
.
Hey, I just bought hollow knight (again) for my computer, and wanted to mod it. I'm on mac so the link (|| https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe ||) gives me a file that I cannot use. I could use some help.

What do you do if you do not have "Customknight.GlobalSettings"
then something else is very wrong
you can show your screen to whoever you want
but I wont watch
you can post some screenshots here tho
is this the right folder?
yes
you have no settings files at all
so you probably don't have any mods on
or no API
how do I get setting files?
the mods make them when they run
I have mod installer and everything
so you have nothing running
what do i need to run?
did you downpatch your game
no
wait I am on that version sorry
its in downloads
have you run it
yes
move it to desktop and run it
I have custom knights installed
If mods still aren't working, click this link for additional instructions: #archived-modding-help message
my hollow knight crashes every time i try to run it with mods
didn't work
did the installer download the api after
yes
you have to downpatch
read the first pin
so it did work. did you go to the settings spot again after launching your game?
I think you have 2 game installs
how
your installer is changing one and steam is launching a different one
how do I fix it
make sure you only have one
how do I do that
look through your pc
on the different drives
right click the game on steam -> properties -> local files -> browse
that's where your steam version is at
and there is a mods option in the options menu?
i don't care that it's empty
just that it's there
it's not used for anything anymore
what?
what's your video resolution
how do i downpatch??
read the first pin
ok
1920 x 1080 @60Hz
where?
Save Files: %APPDATA%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\
which ones sorry I am confused
did you launch the game
yes
do you see any text top left of title screen
no
nice. now install modcommon and customknight
ya

try reverting your game to vanilla
steam: right click hollow knight -> properties -> local files -> verify local game files
It works now thank you so much
nice
when i try to install the mod installer it says the installer needs a game update but i have the most recent version

anyone know what it means if the mod installer can't locate the installation folder for hollow knight? i have the game downloaded on my computer and tutorials dont seem to cover this issue im having
where'd you buy the game
steam
then you selected the wrong folder
what folder is it?
the one where your game is
ok, let me see if i can do something
nah, i put the game into a folder and selected it but it still gives me an error
show me
and why would you move the game from where steam installed it
that's not gonna work
unless you're talking about the game's shortcut
which is not your game files
i have redownloaded everything and it is still outdatted
me and my friend are playing multiplayer, I can see him walk but he can't see ME walk.What should I do(my friend is the host)?
Do yall got an ETA on when the mod installer will be compatible with the new 1.5 update?
no
6 months
Holy shit
ok
God bless you guys
and if it doesn't release in 6 months i will find you
Thanks a lot Mickley

who's that
and just downpatch
takes 5 minutes
and you can use mods now
lol
Yah ik

Iām gonna have to wait until the mod installer is up to 1.5
as the previous patch isnāt compatible doesnāt work with my computer
@honest flax
In what way?
Thx, I was too scared to ping
in what way tho, does it tell you anything?
I donāt remember what it says
Apart from the fact it reports the crash to Team Cherry
This is weird. I made a second copy of the game folder so I could have both vanilla and modded installs. The mod install will load just fine, but it doesn't recognize my controller.
What os are you on?
Win 10
Download https://dl-game-sdk.discordapp.net/2.5.6/discord_game_sdk.zip
Go inside the zip, go inside the lib folder and copy both x86 and x86_64 folders into hollow_knight_Data/Plugins
It should look like this
Yeah, I did just that from the guide on GitHub
It should work
Did it 3 times just to be sure. Same error
Can you check the Plugins folder?
Well, there's a couple things to try. The easiest is to unplug your controller, launch the game, and plug the controller in on the main menu. Another good option, if you haven't already, add the modded installer to steam using the "Add a game" in the bottom left of the library, and then use big picture mode to enable steam inputs and make sure your controller settings are for your right type of controller. And as a last resort, you can download a program to map your controller inputs to keyboard inputs if none of that works.
I mean, screenshot inside the x86_64 folder
I'll try to fix this
@honest flax
I got it. If Discord was ran in admin mode the RPC breaks
wh
Discord.exe -> Right Click -> Run as Administrator
That's what I meant
That's definitely weird
I tried removing admin and it worked
The RPC doesn't seem to be showing in your profile
Gimme a sec
It works, awesome
It does now
Yeah i'm taking note of that, thanks for reporting it
But as soon as I turn admin back on... It breaks
Tested 3 times to be sure
Glad to be helpful
Hello! I donāt know if this is the right place to ask but, I need help tryna set up the mod installer haha,
I downloaded it on my 2011 Mac and I donāt know if it will work? It says it canāt be opened.
the mod installer won't open or the game won't open?
It wonāt open (the mod installer)
I tried opening it but it keeps saying, āapplication cannot be opened.ā
Try right clicking the application, selecting "Show package contents", then search for an application in the folder that opens, and drag that application onto your desktop and run that.
Okay
It works! Thank you so much!!
Ok one last question. So on Mac, I added custom knight but the skin I added, Itās not there.
How do I add it to like- the game?
?i
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages. 

you may have put it in the wrong spot, the mac custom knight folder is in a weird spot, specifically it's \hollow_knight.app/Contents\Resources\Data\Managed\Mods\Custom Knight
Hello,how do i download the ModInstaller 2 ?
it's in the pins somewhere
I searched but i didn't found it.
Thanks!
I know this might sound stupid, but where can I get the fight for ||any radiance||? I didn't find it anywhere on the mod installer (but that could be because I am blind).
i think the dll is in the pins
alright so do I just move that into the mod files now?
Yep
screenshot your mods folder
hi i can't open the modinstaller everytime i do it says it quit unexpectedly I'm on mac btw
Try right clicking the installer, selecting "Show package contents", searching for a application in the folder that opens, then moving that app to the desktop and running it
I don't particularly get it where do i search for the application
Can someone link the CustomTrials mod? I cant seem to find it
It's in the doc of readmes
I'm actually not too certain
first pinned message, the "If mods still aren't working" section
ok thanks
Does anybody know a multiplayer mod that shows peopleās skins? Because the one I use just applies the skins I use to everybody connected and I saw a fireb0rn video where you can see the different skins everybody had
it's hkmp. Here's a page with all the information you need https://www.notion.so/21723018c74c41d3bc555ee9cfaeb743
Thank you very much
wait so what should i do? where should i search?
presumably in those folders
oh thank you i got confused because a terminal opened up but its working now
i need some help i installed the mood installer and this came up even though i have the latest hk update which is 1.5.75.11827 i think thats the patch number, not sure tho. donāt know what to do.
1st pin
Revert to 1.4.3.2
thanks
what are some skins that are in the mod folder?
what?
can someone give me a hand getting the mods set up, been a big fan of the game on play station . but i really want to try out the randomizers etc.. so here i am 0n pc through xbox game pass
welp, sorry to say but xbox game pass isn't moddable. The only versions that are, are through gog and steam. I believe steam is on a 50% off sale rn tho, so maybe try seeking a refund
i am also only on xbow gampass and switch
HKInstallerSettings.json isn't there, so I don't know what to do now
(This is probably due to me manually unmodding the game by just removing all those files, when I tried to mod the game again it worked perfectly fine, but it seems it didn't replace/remake that file)
@thorn gate neither of them are moddable
HKInstallerSettings only shows up if you used mi2, if you're using mi1 it's the modinstaller folder in local
appdata?
yes
do you mean LocalLow
pretty sure it's in local but it might be locallow
also, are you trying to do that "couldn't access" fix cuz i'm pretty sure the reset installer is a separate thing not for fixing that
ok i found it
none of my mods are working, i have everything installed but the only thing thats changed in game is lost kins title card has changed to "corrupted Kin" despite the fight being exactly the same
nvm i didn't
question. where can i find randomizer 3 and seancore? im in the modding doc folder and cant seem to find it
on the installer, and seanprcore is now serecore
from the title screen, open the options menu and tell me if there's a mods folder
Then do this, specifically benchwarp/custom knight but just delete all the globalsettings files #archived-modding-help message
i did this to fix the "loading" issue and it caused the problem im having rn
when i start the game with the randomizer activated the screen freezes on the geo mound thats to the left of the starting area. any way to fix this?
do it again
make sure you have qol and vasi
vasi? also it said qol was not working. how would i fix that? i have it in the folder with the other mods
you need vasi
vasi is a mod. And installing vasi will fix qol
I just installed the custom knight mod on Hollow Knight but when I click to change my skin it does nothing
look at the second pin
ok thanks
thanks, i will let you know how i get along š
Hey, I still need help with adding my skins to hollow knight.
Iām on a Mac and Iām confused
I clicked on ālocal filesā
Right clicked on hollow knight to contents
And then I went to Managed
Then Mods
And I put my custom knight there.
And it doesnāt work-
This is not correct. You need to go into resources
Resources/data/managed/mods/customknight
Wait nvm
I found it
Okay so-
Or do I put it somewhere else?
Sorry haha, Iām a pain when it comes to things
Those images need to be in s folder in the custom Knight folder
Those are the regular hollow knight icons
If you open the custom Knight folder you'll see a skin called default
So the same as that
Mods/Custom Knight/Folder/pngs
?
Daughter of hallownest has a different install method
If you open the folder you'll see it doesn't lead directly to the skin itself
You'll need to grab just the skin.
Hm
Okay
So hornet.png?
Or
Do you want me to move the images to the folder
Or download a different thing for daughter of hollownest
I believe if you go through all the folders of daughter of hallownest it'll lead you to a skin folder that you can put in the custom knight folder. But the intended way is to merge the managed folder from the skin with your managed folder iirc
Is modding possible on the Microsoft Store version?
no
why is hk even availiable on ms store
how do you fight any rad
so i just bought the game on pc and am trying to mod it
ive played before on switch
https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe ive only had hollow knight opened for a minute but i just downloaded it so it is 100% the latest version
but its telling me its not
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
ye
that all?
thank you so much
hi, as something to install the mod to put skins? Why did I try to install it and it wouldn't let me change to the version they said and nothing
@weak lava hey sorry to bother again, is there a mod that will allow you to fight any boss and have your charms and nail upgraded
since ive never played it on pc, and one of the big reasons i got it was just to fight the bosses

someone have the 'custom knight' mod?
how does the costom knight mod work?
you go to mod installer and get it and secondly download a custom knight skin, where all the png files are in a folder, and put that folder in Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\Mods\CustomKnight

Hey, I just moved the any Radiance download into mods, and while the title card changed, the AI is still using Absolute Radiance. What should I do to fix that?

should be like this
there are two betas "public beta" and the 1.4.3.2 version so make sure you're not on the former
yeah i gave the game a restart and then il run it again in a second
what should i expect next?
If it's working when you run the installer it'll give you a page with a list of mod names
well the installer didn't work so now it's the right version the installer should work
also can somebody please tell me how to do this lmao why am i having trouble finding this
the installer is the mod manager
okay thank you i wasn't sure
owoooo got it okay so once the mod manager is on any tips for me? can i instal everything at once? or will that activate everything at once? thanks for both your help though, making this a lot less stressful .. not as bad as getting 112% though š
you can install them all then enable or disable at will
you can install em all at once but many of em will conflict. You can disable em so they don't take effect and you won't have to uninstall and reinstall mods constantly
oh that is spectacular thanks š
im excited so ill check back in soon thanks!! ā¤ļø
ooops stupid question but once ive emabled stuff when or how do they take effect,
so mod menu first ... then open hollow knight app?
Ok so which mod should I use?
yeah just open it up once you've done all you wanna do with mods
to show that their loading...
yeah but hollow knight already has a loading graphic
is it possable to have a coustome skin without mods
no
Depends what you're looking for, my usual suggestions are: Custom Knight and EnemyHPBars for a more vanilla style, HollowPoint or Lightbringer (both incompatible with custom knight) for a big gameplay mix up, Randomizer 3 is very fun and lets you learn the map real well. If you want to know what other mods do check the google doc with readmes for all mods in the pinned messages
my b button doesnt let me go abach in the menues is this a bug that can be fixed?
not a mod bug afaik
This is still probably the best channel to ask in
idk then
What mods do you have?
sometimes when i install a mod this happends
debug and skin mod
i had a problem where my B and A were switched because i used a nintendo controller and steam switched it to xbox controls but this seems like a different thing
thats a steam setting tho
maybe its a verstion thing
Can't do much about that one, unfortunately. Afaik it just stops happening eventually, you can manually install the mods that give you that error though. In case you don't know how, download the mod from the drive with mods linked below, then find the dll for it and move it into your mods folder. Also real quick, try placing the mod installer on your desktop and running it as administrator, don't think it'll work but worth a shot

Kind of wish Silksong was out because that main character seems like more of my style.
i mean there's a custom knight skin that makes you small hornet
why do you even care that much about the character being small lmao
Any of her not small?
ĀÆ_(ć)_/ĀÆ
Eh I dunno. I think I prefer playing serious characters than characters that can be sweet and nice.
the main character lore wise is devoid of all emotion
The knight is only sweet and nice in fan art
Oh.
So whenever i host a server on the HKMP mod none of the skins show up when i put in the values
but they work with the custom knight mod
i just show up invisible
is this supposed to happen or is there a fix?

Hey, I have my game installed on another drive and I think the mod manager has a problem with it
Can someone tell me what I should change to make it work ?
I'm guessing it has to do with the install path but I don't know which folder I should point the manager to
Head to your mods folder and simply move Randomiser into the disabled folder, then move it back when you want to use it
Right click your install on Steam or Good Old Games, look for the "local files" section. The file path it tells you in there is the folder you need to select.
(If it isn't asking you to select a file path, you can find out how to reset the installer in the pins)
So I only need to point him at the general HK files, no need to go any deeper ?
thanks ill try that
Yeah, it worked
Thanks a lot @limber egret !

You want the game files path here
what was the folder you selected called
Have you read the pinned messages to make sure you're on the correct patch?
Screenshot the folder selection window with the folder you're highlighting.
steam and then a GoG install, interesting
in steam
can screenshot the folder but not screenshot the storepage where it says they bought it
Dude, we know you didn't get it legit
i love contradictions
god what a horrible attempt
What are you pressing?
I'm using the CustomKnight Mod and when I try changing my skin, my knight flashes white then doesnt change, it has previously been working, so I dont know whats causing the problem
I may just be dumb but why doesn't Anyrad work for me when I have installed it and it is enabled
did you put the file in the right folder?
which folder am I supposed to put it in
rn it's just in the folder with all the other mod

What do you mean by āit doesnāt workā
when I go fight it it is just absrad
I've also tried it with ultimatum radiance but that just makes it ultimatum radiance
man
for HP Bars mod, is there any easy way to downscale the size of the icons? I really love the hp bars but they are far too large for my liking
i put my game into 1.4.3.2 and put all the mods in the mods folder and still when i start the game nothing has changed can anyone help me figure out what im missing
for me it took a few tries and i had to try 2-3 different mod installers to make it work
the only one that was working for me was from the main site
This is what happens whenever I try to use Customknight. Are there any other mods i need or am I doing something wrong
There's a enemyHpBar.globalsettings.json in the saves folder

alright ill check it out
Make sure all your skin folders are like the default folder
yea they are
yeah that's not the issue cause I am having the same issue rn
was the first thing I checked
Screenshot
Go to installer and download mod common
oh that makes sense
thats what i was missing
yeah same I guess I accidentally disabled it
thought there was a dependency needed but wasnt sure which
anyway does anyone know a fix for the anyradiance issue I have?
Not if you don't say the issue
well the issue is, it doesn't work
like it is in the mods folder, I have enabled it
You can't be in godseeker save file
but when I go fight it, it is just absrad
oh
wait so you're telling me I've been at this issue for like 4 hours because I thought it would work in the godhome file
And make sure all the core mods are installed
Mod common, SF core serecore cuz I'm not really sure which one it needs
lol
And vasi
man I was about to go do p5 again if I found out there it doesn't work because I was in godhome I don't know what I would have done
oh my god I haven't made it to absrad in my main save file
how do i set up a multiplayer server
i went trough all of the pinned messages but nothing helped all the mods are in the right place but when i launch the game the mods section is empty
ty that fixed it
how do i get the gravity mod?
I want to revert back to unmodded for my Hollow Knight but when I try to do that it says: "unable to locate vanilla Hollow Knight"
@quick briar that's weird
try deleting or moving the mods folder and it may revert back like that
But the mods are all gone already but I can't revert back to vanilla Hollow knight via the modinstaller
so, about mod installer... when i select file that it needs, it says that i need to update some sort of patch. someone help?

it should be in pins
is it the one thats like radiance.host/mods/Modinstaller.exe
yes
ok thanks 
np :)
idk If this should go into the channel but I kinda think it relates to custom knight because I want to make a skin with SpritePacker but It won't open. I tried to close it with task manager but it wouldn't show up. what should I do?
is the mod that allows you to have AB on debug mod
i think so
ok
wdym
ill check hold onm
couldnt find it
i checked debug i couldnt find it idk if im blind
wait there's a mod thats just called "Bindings" is it that one
np :D happy to help!
when I have mod installer installed and I open hollow knight and I go to my game saves none of them load no matter how long I wait

Is there a recommended tracker for Room Randomizer? As in, a mod which will help map out where I've already been and how things connect? I found this: https://github.com/homothetyhk/RandomizerTracker/releases, but there's some reports that it isn't compatible with newer versions of the Randomizer. (Plus I've only installed mods through the mod installer so far)
it might have to do with save files, but im not sure
down patch your hollow knight to 1432, modinstaller doesnt support 1.5 yet
ill look through an older conversation cuz I remember having one
ok
I really don't know what to do im sorry
oh o well Ill just try to figure it out
ok good luck man
k
Im trying modinstaller2 right now but what does it mean by modding api out of date and how would I get a newer version of it?
Just click the "update" button
yea that is the version of hollow knight im on
wait for modinstaller2 do you have to be on the latest version?
wait there is a 2?
yea
in pinned messages it is pinned by 56 it is called windows but insidde the folder there is something called modinstaller2
oh
??? what happened i can't toggle full screen between on and off anymore
ok so the same thing happens to me on modinstaller2
Alt + Enter
The ModInstallers do that same thing, they just look different.
when i install the mod launcher it says i need the newest version
This is unrelated to ModInstaller.
When you have an issue, in general you should check the pins, or better yet the "Collection of ReadMes" doc, as it has a Modding FAQ.
At any rate, you need this info:
#archived-modding-help message
"Latest Stable Version" is not the same as newest.
Check pins 
soo 1.5 wont work?
Correct
Lmao alt enter works, thanks
idk If this should go into the channel but I kinda think it relates to custom knight because I want to make a skin with SpritePacker but It won't open. I tried to close it with task manager but it wouldn't show up. what should I do?
i downloaded 1.2.1 from steam by mistake will it work that way or should i just downgrade by one one version to 1.4
Room Randomizer doesn't have a built-in map of any kind.
The Tracker you found should be the current one (assuming you found it in #randomizer pins
).
It's not a mod-- it's a program that reads your logs and displays rooms.
The only thing that's outdated, is that the "number of available checks" for rooms is wrong- but honestly, that part isn't why people use it lol
How would you "download" a version by "mistake"
?
missclick
thanks
Its not pirated dw. I used a program called DepotDownloader but for some reason i have copied different build cmd. Last question latest stable version of the game is 1.4.2.4 right?
Im just trying to figure out how to run it for like 2 hours now oop
HollowKnight is currently 50% off on steam.
Pirate copies modify files that prevent mods from working.
If you want to play modded HollowKnight, then right now is the best time to get it.
To answer your Question though: Read the first pin 
thats exactly what i needed thanks
also when adding custom skin im adding it to the CustomKnight folder right?
Nvm its working ! Thanks for the help
wait so how do you download more mods after you close the modinstaller menu once
how do you open the menu again
Multiplayer doesn't share enemies for all people
Is this right?
I remember someone saying that there actually exists something like that
is there a way to do the multiplayer without using himachi?
You just open it. It is wherever you put it when you downloaded it.
oh ok
Correct
does mod instaler still not work for 1.5 yet?
ok
if I go back to current patch (no mods), what happens to my item randomizer run save file? Can I just revert back to modded and all of the items will be fine or will it mess everything up?
if you load a randomizer save without randomizer it will completely break
don't do it
okay, if I don't open up the save until I put modded back on, will my items still be the same or it will it still break?
if you don't load the save nothing will happen to it
okay thanks š
What is the default download path for mods?
when i try to go back to unmodded it says it can't locate vanilla hollow knight
wait nvm it actually worked
What mods do i need to disable for hollow point
Custom knight, randomizer, and what else?
Qol and stuff like that can stay right
Hollow knight installation/hollow_knight_Data/Managed/Mods
If youāre on Mac itās a path I donāt want to check rn
I'm on Windows so I'll check that
Contents/Resources/Data/Managed/Mods
remember it
I'm still having trouble having mods show up
When I open Hollow Knight it's just the vanilla game
i tried to download mods and now my game is like this what do i do?
check the pins
thx
Disabling custom knight will be fine instead of uninstalling it for hollow point right
Yes
it crashes whenever i open the game, after i use the installer
Is a controller plugged in
no
Did you revert to version 1.4.3.2?
how do i do that?

I need some help, it says I need to update hk to the most stable and recent patch, but I'm all up to date

Hello! Sorry that this isn't exactly about modding, but someone directed me here because I have a problem with a randomly corrupted save. You all know a lot about files and such so I thought maybe someone would know how to help, if not then it's fine, I 100% understand. My main save for Hollowknight got corrupted. Everything was fine last night while I was playing. I ended my session in the middle of Path of Pain and when I came back to it this morning it said Save Corrupted. I don't have any mods installed and I have never touched the files of the game. The only thing me and my friends could think of was that I only have around 5 GB of remaining storage on the drive that HK is on, so maybe there wasn't enough room and it corrupted? I honestly have no idea, and I'm not good with files anyway so this whole thing is beyond my point of understanding. I guess I just wanna know if there is any hope for my save or is it gone for good? Also if I can prevent this from happening in the future that would be great.

- enjoy save
Thank you so much! I'll tell you if it works once I'm done! :,)
and its all ?? i relaunch my game ??
ye
its always here
?
do the same thing but for modconsole
ah thx its good now
nice
yo can somebody join general and explain how the modinstaller works for me?
Just making sure I don't mess up- sorry. The save slot that the corrupted save is on is the 3rd one, and I'm not using the 2 I crossed out because those were from a few months ago, so would I delete the File titled user3, and then rename the file user3.dat.bak1 to user3, or would that be wrong? Sorry again just making sure so I don't screw this up haha
the ping
that would be the way
damn got spared
Awesome, thank you!
well, just take the .bak1 part out of the filename
Ah gotcha
hello! im using easymod for hollow knight and after i die it just send me to random place but i cant see myself at all and i cant do anything after that
remove easymod
i tried to press all buttons and the only thing that i heard is the jumping sound when i try to jump and thats all
get benchwarpfix and remove easymod
i am new player :c i couldnt even beat the first boss without the mod XD
brb getting the link for benchwarpfix
okay^^
if you die with that it will bring you to kp
ao either keep easymod and warp to kp everytime
or remove easymod

idk if Im just blind but help needed
your folders arent set up properly
I downloaded a hollow knight mod and now the achievements in the game are gone. I uninstalled the mod and the achievements are still gone. Any help? @ me if you know what to do
your sprite folder should be Hollow Knight > sprites > then the list of folders
i had that happen but steam is still tracking my achievements
Okay
so i think its just a visual bug
i keep getting this whenever i try and open the mod installer, how do i fix it
i just reinstalled the one linked in the channel description and my game is on the most recent version
steam
Ok so youāll want to right click hollow knight, select properties, then find the beta section and select 1.4.3.2, if I remember correctly
Right click in the steam library I mean
Make sure you do that, not on a shortcut or executable :D
Yup!
Wait for it to download, and donāt worry your saves are fine too
I got a little worried the first time I did it thinking my saves would disappear but itās all good
i've done stuff with other versions before and my saves were fine so i'm not worried about that
thank you for the help :)
Yw!
if i uninstall custom knight, and then reinstall it, will my skins still be there or do i need to download them again
you need vasi
alright thank you
I need help from anyone who knows how to use GODump. I downloaded it and loaded the game and was able to generate the atlases I need by pressing F2, but I canāt seem to get the individual sprites after that. Pressing F3 or F4 doesnāt do anything. Here are the instructions Iām following for reference (under āUsageā): https://github.com/magegihk/HollowKnight.GODump#notice
after you press f3, you need to open up the GODump.GlobalSettings.json file thats stored in the same folder with your saves and delete the animations that you dont want, then you save that and go back in game and press f4 to dump the sprites, the sprites will take a while to dump
how can i get more masks using debug mod?
You cannot
Is there any way / mod i can use to do this?
what should i open up that file with? I tried opening it up with notepad and it didn't list any animations
notepad should work fine

"_keys": [],

oh huh
this is all that shows up
when will the mod loader be released for the latest version?
this is what is meant to show up, are you sure youre opening the .json and not the .bak?
also check that youre using the most recent version of godump
yeah just the .json file with v1.5
If you download QoL mod then open the save file, you can quit out and close the game. It will create a JSON version of your save file which you can simply edit in notepad.
thanks , i'll try that
Are you on v 1.5 of hollow knight are you saying here?
nah thats for GODump
Ah, okay. Just double checking.
im not sure why thats being weird then sorry
alright thanks for trying to help
You are on 1.4 of hollow knight and have the modding API though, right?
yes
excuse me, is there any no clip mod on mod manager?
