I want to know how to use this thing
I can't do almost anything on the Modinstaller
wdym
in what way is it not working?
I can not use it
Maybe…. Press install?
I can not help you if you don't provide details on what happens when you click install
How does the custom knight work?
Custom Knight itself allows you to use skins which you download separately
Simply install custom Knight and it's dependencies (I think just Mod Common) and download a skin from one of the Google drives linked in the pinned messages. Place your new skin in the custom Knight folder (inside your mods folder).
Ayo it says that i need to install a stable version for it to work? How would i do that

Do hk mods work on IOS?
They work on Mac
You want the Mac mod installer which is linked in the pinned messages
No idea if that counts as "iOS"
Yes it does and thank you
Ty

Unknown

Im looking at the drive with mods but it's realy hard to tell what mod does what. Is there a mod that adds smth like ng+ where you start with all the stuff but enemies are stronger too?
@heavy crater
ah nice, thx
please god tell me I disabled the ping for this. Otherwise Mickely is going to be mad
also is the multiplayer mod compatible with other mods if both players have them?
No
I see, unlucky
Can you have different skins in the same world? talking about multiplayer
actually good question
You gotta use HKMP now
wait do you mean if I use it I can use other mods like randomizer in multiplayer?
you can with the other multiplayer
multiplayer just shows the location of other players
oh dang I see, thx that's amazing
^
not exactly sure what the difference is but I'll just try both and see. Im allready a few hundred hours in so mixing it up will be fun
Ayo my friend joined my server and now we cant see eachother move
and has more features
idk what to do
wasnt there a pin for that?
well you probably did it wrong
or if you can see each other, but not moving, then reconnect from the beginning
or.... switch to hkmp
is there any solution to the macOS black screen on startup issue yet
on startup of what
your computer?
a specific program?
did you add mods? did you downpatch?
uh
when i start up the game
its just a black screen but i can see cursor and can hear sounds
i deleted modinstaller 2 recently so no mods
this is a bit off topic(idk i just got here) but did rando 3 update to have split cloak nail and claw as part of the settings when you are choosing what for the rando?
you have 3 game copies then?
you can't install mods on 1.5 yet
so it wont open if you tried
if you want mods, you have to use 1432 with the beta option on steam
so how do i remove mods from my 1.5 files
verify game files with steam
right click game -> properties -> local files -> verify
ok
not on the installer yet afaik
will it fix the black screen issue?
k ty
probably
I need some help
i got the idea to do it from skurry
ok thanks
cool. it's not on the installer yet
if you want that version, you'll have to get it manually
I downloaded mod installer and everytime I click on the folder its in. It says Couldn't locate
Can someone help me fix it
select the correct folder where your game files are
idk how tho
you mean the shortcuts?
yes
where do I usually find those
where you installed them
right click the shortcut and select go to file location
that's where your files are
or, you can do that with steam too. to see where you installed your game
on what
I found it but It said I needed the latest update

how do I go back to previous versions
read the first pin
ok so maybe rando 3 did update for me to do split nail cloak and claw
naisu
how do i install mods in a downpatch version?
i tried to install the radiencehost mod installer and now my computer is acting like im holding the tab key, its scrolling through everything really fast, can anyone help?
I also wanted to ask. I'm still trying to read through the pinned messages so this isnt urgent but im struggling to find what can help me with this. It's saying "Invalid path selected. Please select the correct installation path for hollow knight"
figured it out im all good
just had to read that it was originally sayig "cant find hollow knight" i was trying to make a mods folder for it lmao
mine is doing this too and my game is up to date
oh
so to fix all of that Id say go to the game on your library
right click it
go to properties
there will be a tab labeled "beta" go to that and find the version 1.4.3.2 i think is its name and change to that
you might have to reinstall the modding stuff but from what ive seen the modding thing only works in that version
the whole latest stable version thing confused me too XD
it says the code is invalid
oh
hold on
so you dont need to press anything
you just click the version change
and itll do it
no code or anything
can u use mod installer if u dont use steam
ah ok its updating now thanks
np XD
hopefully the scrolling problem stops too
yeah
worst case scenario you uninstall the modderinstaller thing and reinstall it
not too bad and such
i cant actually find it to uninstall it
ah ok
mhm hopefully anyways
if not i can give some jeryrig advice for it
aka my best guess
can u use mod installer if u dont use steam
i have no idea sorry XD didnt mean to like ignore you i just didnt have the answer so i didnt wanna give misinfo
ok
Installer works for GoG and steam
if you dont mind me pinging you whats going on with my menu?
It does other random stuff too
i figured it was a branch file for like custom skins for things besides knight
It's a shitpost mod pack
from some messages i've read, ModInstaller won't work with 1.5?
yeah i just read the Pinned post
is there any difference? i dont really want to downgrade 
Not really
I mean there are some but nothing too noticeable
Gameplay wise

Does reverting the game to 1.4.3.2 beta affect my data?
It shouldn’t
And also does a mod like Custom Knight affect data
I’ve been playing the ‘randomizer 3’ mod, and had the Grimmkin flames randomized so I skipped most of the Grimmkin novice fights.
After I beat TMG I finally did my first Grimmkin novice fight and received shade soul. I’m wondering if I could have lost some important items to the Grimmkin novices before now?
Such as half the split claw, half the split dash, half the shade cloak, or the lumafly lantern. Duplicate major items was turned off since I wanted it to be slightly more challenging to find.
The grimmkins are always fight able if your grimmchild level is at or above the requirements for them
So no. You can't have missed something
Good to know, thank you 🙏
is there anything in 1.5 that i won’t be able to do if i downgrade so modinstaller works
No
I recently started an Impossible Any% save and was wondering if the assets from said folder will only appear in new saves and not my pre-existing ones (if that makes any sense).
what did 1.5 add then
bug fixes and backend stuff
hey um im having a problem and this is my first time modding the game
its a custom knight problem
i try to change into a skin and it just does not work
Second pinned message covers that
Oh I'm pretty sure you need to download skins
Ok IDK what to do then
ah i think i found the problem
What'd that be?
yep that'd be a problem
thx btw mate
it works now
funny how im trying to defeat soul master right now so to me it looks like hes giving me the middle finger
unfortunately that one's not an emote
where can i find the mod launcher in the files after i closed it?
i was trying to disable one mod and it made me quit the program
nevermind
i found it
If I load my save file that I made before I added the Impossible Any% assets with DecorationMaster, will it add them to my save file or just new ones that I create?
Hey I'm trying to install the Redwing mod. Where does the installer put the Redwing assets that I was supposed to install alongside Redwing?
pretty sure it just shows up in the mods folder, but you also don't need redwing assets to use redwing
iirc
I only got the endings files, is that normal?
Because the GitHub page has a whole lot more than this.
uh
What if I tried to download the files from github and just placed it in the folder?
Oh and on a side note: Redwing's still in development right?

Hello, whenever is open the installer it creates AU and then exits, i've verified game files, any fix?
Hey, i have 3 hollow knight on my pc : latest version, 1.2.2.1 and a 1.2.2.1 with debug etc. I used ModInstaller a while ago and it worked perfectly fine, but now he's telling me to update to latest version ( i saw the pin message), so my question is : how to change the game file destination ? Because I would like to just choose which one I want to have mods on, and ModInstaller is assuming it's the latest one, so he just put the message "latest version" and i can't just change the file path. Is there a way to do this ?
I know it's doable while in ModInstaller, tho i can't reach ModInstaller as it insta pop the error message
If anyone has the same problem it's because the nexusmods version is outdated

ty man
Make sure you have: Vasi, SereCore, ModCommon, QoL and Benchwarp installed
is there maybe a mod that helps with a menderbug spawn rate?
been doing the well DD thing for about 10 minutes an d still nothing
souls are not a problem
you wouldn't have to sit at the bench, would save time
i have some mods that basically make my souls infinite
oh
he just doesnt want to spawn
well
ima just go back and grind
thanks for help anyway

Im trying to swap weaverlings with vengiflies. Is it possible to make them fly?

debug lets you give geo i believe
yeah i found it, ty
It's in 'Arts' mod, which comes with several other mods you may not want and would have to manually uninstall
whats bonfire mod
does anyone know how to fix this?
By chance is there a .ddl file for it out there
like i load modinstaller up, then it says done downloading 0.0 / 0.0 then says this
For atomic radiance, I guess I can download arts mod and send you the dll for atomic specifically
Thank you so much
givning geo button for me is LeftAlt, ios there anyway i can chagne this
yea you can change keybinds in the small menu
how
Move the installer to your desktop, and run it as administrator. If the doesn't fix it you may need to navigate down that file path and may need to unzip the modding api
find the give geo button on the page, click the small dot on the right side of the menu, press a new button
oh ok ty
@native ice I think I got the mod to work. Thank you!
Ah okay, well good luck lol
HeyI think blackmoth is broken
in the upper lefthand corner of the screen it says i have it
but when i go to mods it doesnt show up
and the gameplay hasnt changed
Some mods don't show up in the mods tab, and it essentially makes your shade dash constantly sharp shadow, you may not have noticed but if you made a new save try dashing
but doesnt it turn all your attacks into sharp shadow
or was that a different mod
A hybrid of fast-paced and risky action mod!
Your main form of attack is you Dash!
Use charms and upgrades to upgrade your dashing capabilities!
Develop new strategies for bosses and enemies!
Find new paths and new ways to explore with a new movement upgrade!
it turns dashing into sharp shadow, and reduces nail to 1 damage
ok
how do i install mods?
?i First check the latest pinned message tho
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages. 
tnx
considering i have hollow knight installed this doestn seem right
Move the installer to your desktop and run it as administrator
I have a question about the Mod Installer itself
When I tried to use the "revert back to unmodded" button, the installer told me that it could not locate vanilla Hollow Knight
Which is weird because Hollow Knight has been working with little to no issues with mods for the past week for me.
yea I don't think that button actually functions
Just verify integrity and Don't run the installer
on the installer?
Oh
anyone have any idea how to fix this? my computer froze when i tried to launch the game with mods earlier today, and when i restarted my computer and tried again, the usual loading bar that would show up when i launched modded doesn't show up, there's no music on the menu, and my save files look like this
to clarify, if i update my game to 1.5 or run the game unmodded it works completely fine and my save files still exist

What the mod where you can give yourself the upgrades

thxs
is my debug mod weird? or does it no longer have all the save states and such?
its missing a lot of info that was on the screen last time i ran the mod
ah ty! :3

is modding avalible on the latest version yet?
no
😦
Anyone know where to get started modding?
By reading the channel description?
creating or using?
Hollow Point
Ty
Make sure to check the readme thoroughly
ok why?
Because... it has important information in it?
Howling wraiths/Abyss Shriek, Vengeful Spirit/Shade Soul, Desolate Dive/Descending Dark
0 is not owned, 1 is owned, 2 is upgraded
okey thanks dude
how i can run this mod?
i mean absolute radiance from fireborn video
without modinstaller
absolute radiance is vanilla
that is?
Vanilla meaning in the base game, no mods at all
^
how to run it
download it and put the dll in your mods folder, you will need the modding api and maybe mod common but I'm not certain on that
and you will need to downpatch
where is mod folder?
It appears when you run the mod installer once or if you manually install the modding api
okay thanks
Creating
Then I believe you'd want to check the pins of #archived-modding-development, and ask further questions there
I believe this pin specifically #archived-modding-development message
but should probably look through em all
hmm. im using MoreSaves and trying to organize my saves from my second account, and it doesnt seem to be working. i tried naming them 101 through 104 and it didnt work, 81-84, nothing seems to work
Well that'd put them on the like 26th page, if you only have like 12 saves name them in order, 1-12
its mostly to organize, but that still only gives me 16 saves. im already halfway to that and plan to do a lot more runs
i actually think it maxes out at 4 pages even though its 2bil limit of saves
i cant get it to make more than 4 😦
It may just loop if you go through 3+ pages of empty saves, tho I'm not certain, but anyways don't name them such high numbers
i just tried 21-24 and still nothing.
i already have 1-10 taken up lol
i mean im pretty certain the mod just maxes out at 4 pages. so i dont think theres a solution to use more than 16 besides for me to modify it or something.
Well, you could atleast fit most of em and then manually change em if you need to for some reason
Jist wait for 1.5
should i wait for the mod app to update so it can be compatible with the game or get the beta thing
Beta
It's easy and harmless
i actually think the problem with MoreSaves was that i needed to either click "New Game" on the latest page or load into a game on the latest page to make a new page. im testing it now.
edit: confirmed. you kinda have to manually make pages.

nvm
Hi, can someone link me the Royal Dreamer please ?
Pretty sure it's on the installer
I use only Modding API, not the installer... Do you have the .dll file ?
Uh, why not use the installer?
Doesn't work on my game ;-;
In what way? Cause that can probably be fixed
Says me that my game is not updated, however my game is 1.4.3.2
Oh, well you can probably fix that by just making sure it's on the desktop, running it as administrator, and maybe resetting the installer. Or it'd probably work to use MI2
uh

I'm an HK player on mac and I'm trying to install mods, but the modinstaller seems to be not working properly for me. I've followed video instructions exactly, but every time I try to open the modinstaller, it immediately closes and seemingly for no reason. Has anyone else experienced this problem, and if so, how did you get past it, if at all?
Backspace will hide the Knight, and then you can enable No Clip.
There was a beta build of debug that has some more features to help with camera stuff (controllable no clip speed), which i can link it you want.
Oh no clip ok
-
read first pin to make sure you're on correct version
-
read
post in the pin to make sure that you know how to make different versions of HK to run -
make sure that you extracted modinstaller2.app from the .zip
If it still isn't working, then you may need to open-package-contents on the .app, and then find the inner version of it (it'll be in a folder or two, and also be called mod installer 2), and then move that to desktop and run it.
alright, thanks for the reply, I'll see if this works

Hi guys, I have a problem, My game is bugged and I couldn't find the last mask shard because of it. I'm 100% I went to all places and did everything several times over and over but the last mask shard does not exist. Is there a way to get it through a mod or something
Hey, I've some problems with my game. When I jump, sometimes I just fall like, directly. Like, I'm in the air and I immediately fall onto the ground. It's really annoying cauz I can't jump normally like for Greenpath and the acid, can't get pass though. Also, enemies just freeze when they try to attack me. I have a screen of that
Those Obboles just froze and even if I move or attack them, they stay like this

what patch are you on? What mods do you have? What keybinds are you using? What else have you done that might affect it?
got it, thx pips
the command doesnt explain mobile unfortunately
if you're looking for the installer or other things to actively affect your PC version, then mobile pins aren't necessary or helpful
I use randomize mod, and everything that need it, I installed chaos mod and hollow point but I disabled it. I'm on 1.4 for the mods API. And, uh, what keybinds mean ? I don't have the for that-
b/c you kinda need to be on PC to download them
screenshot your main menu
Okay
also, chaos mod makes the game chaos
as in... constantly changing physics
so what you're experiencing is likely just that mod working properly
is there any way i can edit the .dat save file to change grimm child to carefree melody
yes
yes
Nope, I disabled it, and, when it work, it's really the chaos, like controls invert and a lot of things not cool x)
the options only give me a "on/off" though
also
so where would i select that
Would it be the rng mod?
ah yeah
do you know how by any chance
$hit
which of them is it? i only have one for debugmod and one for modcommon
or do i need to be ingame once for it to be created
ah kk
What mod is it ? Cauz i just wanted to randomize objects personally
Are you using bindings mod or toggle-able bindings
^ also that
me ?
No
oh, srry-
if you have QoL, you open the corresponding .json file and edit it. if not, you have to use the bloodorca (sp) site to change your file
bindings mod, what is toggle-able bindings?
ah separate mod nvm

if im setting kingsoul to 3 in debug mod, why is the expense in terms of charm notches still 0? do i need to reload the save or something?
charm notch cost isn't updated when changing with debugmod
even after reloading?
yes
so theres no way to get kingsoul through debug mod i guess?
like, the original
with 5 charm notches
not with debug, save editing it would be
is there a link to one in the pins?
also, is there a way to get old nail outside of that kind of save editing?
lower your nail dmg with debug
is there a way to do it over menu and not over keybinds? it sounds really messy to me to need to bind 300 things in that debug mod
no
kk
well, you have yourself to blame for that then
but okay, + and - sounds like pretty straight-forward, thanks
can you disable the on screen effects when you're at 1 mask with fury of the fallen equipped

will a simple custom skin mod mess with saves?
if you need help with a boss, perhaps #hk-help is what you need more? Could just get more upgrades and come back to watcher knights later
or use debug to increase your nail dmg
I’ll check in the Help section. I already upgraded Nail twice
but if this is for your main save, it's not recommended to use mods on it
might affect things permanently
I have no knowledge lol
Ohh damn
Alright, I won’t then
no
So, you also don’t recommend to debug for nail damage? (Got to be honest that I don’t even know how)
you install debug
then press the button to increase nail dmg
or you could turn on the invincibility cheat
or you could upgrade your nail 2 more times then try WK again when you're stronger
I installed any radiance mod, and I am fighting a different version of radiance
i think ultimate radiance...
how do I fix this
i sent you DM, still watching your stream, the way i just did it just now was manually select the .dll file in modding API
*manually install
Hey I wanted to ask if there's any mod which allows you to kill bosses cause my friend's game didn't save and she has to get everything again :/
she lost like 4h of progress
we have the bench mod but still look for some other helping mods
Debug mod lets you become invincible, fly, give yourself items, infinite soul, increase nail damage, and much more
@nova zenith (in case you didn’t see, look at the message above ^)
hey is there a mod that lets you see collectibles (like charms, skills, etc) on the in-game map?
you can use an external map like https://scripterswar.com/hollowknight/map
Interactive map for the game Hollow Knight. Includes Godmaster DLC.
Hi all, I'm trying to get modinstaller setup. I've downloaded from radiance.host, ran the .exe but I don't think it's working properly. I've downgraded to 1.4.3.2, and the .exe generates a AU.exe file as well as the "AppData\Local\ModInstaller\ModInstaller.exe_Url_wow2rrek32zsektrs2dhe1tutfiphosq\1.0.0.0" folder with just a user.config file. Watching a video (fireb0rn's), I was expecting downloading/installing more and a window that let me choose mods to install. Am I missing something?
ok so i have the skins in the custom knight folder
and i see the're names
but when i click on them
my knight does the animation as if it was gonna change and stays the same
i also dont see the picture
- The thumbnails were removed.
- Make sure you have Mod Common.
- Make sure your folder structure is correct for the skins. It must be "mods/custom Knight/skin name/images"
If there's an extra folder it won't work
i know but the problem is that i am trying to 112% the game and i missed a couple of things and i can't remember which one i got and which one i didn't get and i really do not want to go to each location and check separately
I think rando map mod might actually help for that
It’s made for randomizers but it tracks everything
Idk if it tracks previously obtained items tho
you could also try using this maybe https://reznormichael.github.io/hollow-knight-completion-check/
thanks i will go check it out
All, I'm getting a "The process cannot access the file 'C:/tmp/HKmodinstaller/LICENSE' because it is being used by another process." error when trying to install the "vasi" mod (required for randomizer). Any idea on what's wrong? Other requisite mods installed fine. I've tried rebooting the PC to see if that resolved.
Check the pins 
Yep - checked.
That's the 4th pin
There is a pin with "Unhandled exception" error, but the error below isn't the same
I'll take a closer look, though. Thanks
doh - thanks. that looks helpful
Can you somehow delete charms in debug mod? My friends accidentally unlocked all of them
AFAIK, no. You can technically save-edit to remove them, but that would be pretty tedious imo.
If you haven't saved the game more than one or two times since it happened, you can recover the backup
but if you sat at multiple benches, then the backup is likely gone
?saves
To check your backups: Go to your saves folder, and find the user#.dat files, where # is the number for the save slot (1 - 4)
The plain one is the main save itself
The .bak#### ones are the backups. the lower the number, the older it is.
Before messing with any of them, you may want to copy them all, in case you donk something up
But to restore a backup, just delete the plain user#.dat file, and remove the .bak#### on the backup you want to restore.
its not finding any of my game files even though i was playing it a minute ago

The mod installer isnt finding the game files
Did you remove Mod Installer from the Downloads Folder?
uh no
You should do that
ok
And if you haven't, make sure you read the first pin 
The mod installer still isnt working
its still not working
😦
i did all the steps
It still wont find the files
So to confirm, when you launch Hollow Knight, what version does it say it's on at the bottom left?
And which Mod Installer are you using?
in steam it says 1.4.3.2
/same thing in hollow knight
the mod installer is the one near the bottome of the pinned comments
Try right-clicking on the mod installer, and selecting Run As Administrator
Then you'll just have to manually select the location. You need to point it to the folder that has hollow_knight.exe in it, which is the "Game Paths" directory by default, in the message a bit up
alright
wait when i enter it this is what i see
"Unable to locate files make sure the game is downloaded"
Which the game is downloaded
That happens if you point it to the wrong folder, or if you have the wrong version of HK
oh ok
The folder that that takes you to, is the one that you need to tell the installer to look for
how do i make it search for the right one
hello im new to modding can someone help me?
when i clicked on the modinstaller a new app showed up what do i do with it?
Need help I don't know what to do
All I see is "MANAGE" on Modinstaller of 32 bit version
What's the app called
Do you mean it says "Manual"? If not then send a screenshot cause I'm not certain what you're seeing rn
If it's not prompting you then reset your mod installer. Also make sure that you moved the installer to your desktop. Instructions for resetting the installer: #archived-modding-help message
people mentioned saveeditors recently several times, is there one in the pins or something? havent found it yet
It's not directly in the pins, it's mentioned in one of em so it's easxy to miss. Though there's two ways to do so, either using a website where you upload your save file and then download it and put it back in your saves, or if you have mods installed at the moment you can install QoL mod, run the save once, then you'll be able to edit it directly in your save files. Here's the website for it: https://bloodorca.github.io/hollow/
oh god that shit is tedious as hell to edit isnt it
Ctrl + F is your friend
yeah sure
Mostly just changing things from "true" to "false" or vice versa, or changing numbers. If you have any questions feel free to ask. And be sure to check capitilization and spelling
might write a tool in the future, but for now whatever, aight
other question: doesnt QoL have a config file?
damn
buy it, team cherry is very good 
WUUUUUUT
okay seems like QoL solved my "bind LMB to attack" problem

MouseBindings - Bind mouse button inputs (shows up as F13/14/15)
probably because of this
That was the pantheon glitch where you can't close the menus right?
nvm theres a fixgodhome in the settings
probably that
i think i heard theres also something else, not only pantheon
somebody in the steam forums said something about that
but not sure
no something else
like outside godhome i think
Godhome menus are no longer broken by binding attack to LMB.
yeah that one
Oh sick, wish I'd know that was a feature earlier, but guess it'll be helpful for future reference
is it possible in multiplayer you can see the skin of the person your playing with?
is there some explanation for all qol settings though? its a bit unprecise imo
and the official changelog doesnt really mention all settings
Have you checked the readme?
uh, pretty sure the github shows the readme
- NoHardSaves
- downdash priority(?)
- SalubraKiller
- and all SpeedBroke glitches
Are you asking what those are or?
thats the unclear ones
idk what a hard save is
then, what is downdash taking priority over or vice versa
I believe the hardsaves thing would be like, the city of tears gate. When it closes it sets your save point there and save quitting doesn't take you back to the other bench
oh i mean, thats good because its part of the story
I'm not certain on that tho
Downdash priority is something that was changed in 1.5 as well, it makes it so dash master will prioritize dashing left or right since down dashing is really annoying sometimes
SalubraKiller makes it so that blessing isn't so annoying
And speedbroke glitches is things that we're patched out but that speedrunners use
but what does "prioritzing" mean? like, if you press Down/Left at the same time and it takes left over down?
I believe so
Nice for things like path of pain/white palace
Dash faster but you aren't gonna dash head first into spikes because you just pogoed and didn't stop holding down
but it says - Ability to toggle dashmaster downdash priority.
idk what they mean by toggle
toggling sounds like something you would do ingame
thats very useful info for us

okay so for the unpatched patched glitches

yes

ready the entire message
is there a list of all glitches where i can see what those are?
menudrop is obvious, leverskip is hitting lever from below i think
but idk what the other mean
uh, honestly probably better off asking in #speedrunning, the speedrunning server probably has a list of tech
I dunno if this is the right place to ask, but is there a way to make it so that when I change the timescale with debug mod, it doesn't reset after taking damage?
Like, I wanna fight sisters of battle at 1.4 speed or something
Try the sanic mod, you have to manually edit a file and restart when you wanna change timescale tho
Also mantis gods lets you do sob faster
ok thx I'll try that
and mantis gods seems just slightly out of my skill range haha
well yea i knew that one
thought that wasnt patched yet
cant figure out what storage/superslide/televator refers to though
So quuiiiick question. Is adding special like charm skins and such any different than just copying the folder into customknight? I'm struggling to install the skin "nekomata" i think is its name
Yea that should be all it takes
Gimme a minute to check something tho since some skins are a bit weird
okie gotcha
nekomata 
ah yea, nekomata is one of em
oh? how so
although she's not my favourite 
XD
when you download it it cotains a "hollow_knight_Data" folder, you have to replace the hollow_knight_Data folder in your game files with the skin one, it should keep everything mostly the same just add the new important stuff, if you're on mac you don't have a hollow knight data folder so I think you might move the contents of it into \hollow_knight.app/Contents\Resources\Data\
oh superslide is that one
weird i dont see a file named superslide
Is this what you're looking for?
I'm confused what you're asking
if i click into the hollow knight data
is the managed folder
the skin thing i copy?
"you have to replace the hollow knight data" i assumed meant like
im confused mb
Uh, well first what os are you on?
windows or mac?
Okay, so when you navigate to your game files/mods folder, the pathing is something like this \Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\Mods\, so you want to be in the Hollow Knight folder, and see the hollow knight data folder. Then in another file explorer tab, open up the folder the skin downloaded in, find the hollow_knight_data folder that contains the stuff for the skin, and drag that folder into your Hollow Knight folder, when it prompts you "There is already 1 folder with that name" select the "Replace existing folder" option
OS = operating system
I'm trying to install the ModInstaller and it's saying that I need to update my game despite the fact that it's updated

hey so i installed moding api on mac, and now hollow knight wont run
Have you downpatched?
Yep, first pinned message
I don't really know where to put this, so if i'm in the wrong place for this I'm sorry
i got it thanks!
I used benchwarp to a toll bench
after I went in the room first
and didn't pay the toll
now I'm stuck there and can't pause or anything
Try this #archived-modding-help message
So in the "Hollow Knight" folder I had "hollow_knight_data" I then opened the zip file and moved "hollow_knight_data" into the "Hollow Knight" folder and chose to "replace the files in the destination". However when I loaded up the game I didn't see the skin show up
uh, well that's weird
I know there are pins but where do I put this benchwarpfix.dll file
I looked in the pins but didn't see where to put it

Okay ty
hollow knight\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\Mods\
ok cool
thanks
do I need to do anything other than put it in there?
and ujst run the game?
yep
ok
then afterwards you may wanna delete it since it'll put you in dirtmouth every time you die or reload the save
Where does it save the (I forget what it's called, the mod where you spend Geo to upgrade stats)
not the mod itself, your levels etc
Most that info is stored in your save file
Oh wait
Bonfire not debug
Uhh... I do not know
so long story short i misunderstood a little bit because i didnt understand you meant to start at the very very very beginning spot mb XD
@native ice
any ideas why enemyhpbar is still active although i deactivated it?
Uh, what mods you got?
did you restart the game?
ye
uh, well i can only guess that it didn't move the file properly so, close the game, enable it and disable it again
or just uninstall it
it did move it
already done
then uh, manually move the file
that was a dll coming from a skinpack
sure lemme try
i was assuming its needed for reskins of my hp bar/soul vessel etc
but yeah, it's gone now in mainmenu
and my hp reskin still works
then idk why they put it in the folder
I'm guessing it's an old copy of the hp bar mod or something
So that you wouldn't have to go searching for the right version of the mod to be compatible with the skin
some skins reskin enemy hp bars as well
ah
