so for the url i just input that?
ahh yes i finally got it thanks so much
@real jacinth the mod installer 2 work the same way as the mod installer 1?
wdym
i mean, they have different code, so technically no
but they have the same mods on them and put them in the same location
so yes
can I consider that 2 is better?
you can consider whatever you like better to be better
ok
I'm looking for mod installer since yesterday, one that works is already good
Do I need to do both of those or just the 1 portion?
if you have only installer 1, then just do section 1
is it mandatory to leave the game in beta to use mods?
yes
ok
can i ask something?
damn
i got destroied
destroyed*
anyway
i have a 50h+ save in my game but its in the latest version if i downgrade him to use mods will i still have my save?
yes
Hey! I just downloaded the mod installer. It's telling me to update my game but as far as I can tell it's on the newest one. Do I need to downpatch?
i just saw something about that in the pinned messaged Overcompensatan
Hey Mickely it didn't work, I'm bad with computers and probably did something wrong and I don't see myself doing it right any time soon so guess I'm not playing modded Hollow Knight, thanks for the help man.
last message i will probably send here but just to be sure the 1.4.3.2 still has the grimm troupe and godmaster right?
It looks like mod installer doesn't have access to the internet. Check that you are connected on the device you are playing hollow knight, and that you don't have a firewall etc blocking it. Move mod installer to your desktop also
Ah, I see this is an older problem
?
If you've downpatched etc and already tried this then never mind. 👀
I just didn't realise that you'd already been asking about this issue and had responses
is anyone else getting crashes on Inferno King Grimm's big bullet hell attacks?
in phases 2 and 3 he has a bullet hell attack with big bullets, in p2 it's a homing attack and in p3 it's a fullscreen static-ish attack
both of those attacks can randomly make my game crash
at first i thought it was something to do with the shade cloak dash during the attack, but i dodge the p3 attack just by moving left and right
in p2 it's almost always when shade cloaking but it can happen outside of that too
haven't really seen any posts with anyone else with this problem and i'm not sure what's causing it
i guess i could try disabling the color shader and seeing if that helps
thanks
it doesn't help
my soul and my ss will randomly stop working
it seems that hollow point has something to do with this considering turning it on and back off makes it work again temporarily
Soul works differently in hollow point, and shade soul is weird, what mods you got?
it affects my game when turned off too then or something because the only mods i have are hollow point fix, qol, doh, and custom knight
oh wait i see
setting the blue option also doesn't help
yeah idk
these crashes are pretty frustrating
hello so i am attempting to mod but the installer keeps saying that i don't have the latest update but i have steam to update automatically. any advice
ok thank you
if u forgot
Hello, I am having troubles opening the mod installer. I just downloaded the mod installer, but it won't open properly, but instead flashes open then immediately closes.
what os are you on?
I didn't forget I'm just not sure how to fix it, i guess just verify the game integrity and reinstall mods
Ok, so something is off about the application I got. I just checked with someone else and the file name is different. It says "ModInstaller-9-8-7-1-1616501438". I got it from nexus mods, maybe that is useful information.
Then that's the problem
Don't get it from nexus, that's out dated

hey, can somebody update the traditional Mapping Mod that's on the Nexus? The developer abandoned it and it crashes the game now. The source code is included in the download. https://www.nexusmods.com/hollowknight/mods/14
reeeeeeeeee
Did I post this in the wrong tag or something?
Well discussion or development would be better, but also just using nexus mods
sorry. I usually just lurk because I have anxiety around talking to strangers online. I'm not good at this
so if i create a room in itemsync and another person joins, will we be in the same map or do seperate maps but just getting each others items
Hello good! How are you doing? Well, I have a problem, my English is not very good and I hope it doesn't show that I use the xd translator. Well in summary I downloaded the modinstaller then I installed some mods and I wanted to try them one by one but when I try to open the game it sends me an error in the application and it closes me suddenly, why does this happen to me?
?pins You probably need to downpatch

Hello agian. At some point, the mod installer stopped working, an kept showing the error "Central Directory Corrupt". How do I resolve this?
thankfully stopped
I believe I followed all the HKMP steps correctly. I'm hosting, I'm localhost, my son is putting my ipv4 in, etc. What seems to be the issues is when I launch the HKMPServer.exe it runs for a second then crashes? it looks like?
Anyone know what I'm doing wrong off hand?
can i use itemsync and hkmp at the same time? so we can see each other while having rando and itemsync active as well
hey guys im in rando rn and cant figure out how to progress
I have been through the pins as well.
Can't you get sompletely stuck on randomizer sometimes? lol
i dont think so
I've never played it, just curious.
i think it makes it so you cant
Yeah, would make sense, just seems rough lol.
its fun tho
not fit for this channel, but its just your not getting the checks
i just CANT FIND CLAW
idk what im missing
ask in #randomizer
can i use itemsync and hkmp at the same time? so we can see each other while having rando and itemsync active as well
thanks
Can you not see each other in MP at all normally?
Well my question is the following, if I don't have that version, much less have the steam version, unfortunately, what am I supposed to do?
buy the game
Unfortunately I do not even have to buy a gum so. . Thanks for the help and when I can I will buy the game and come back here

Anyone know why I keep getting "Mod Installer closed unexpectedly" when I try to open it?

Hi, new to modding. I am wondering if I can modify my EnemyHPBar mod since it looks too big on a 4k screen. I only got a EnemyHPBar.dll now, doe anyone have any suggestions?
how do u duplicate saves?
my game shows this when i try to load up the game
if you have the latest one (in the pins), there's a "Open Mods" button in the bottom left, that'll take you to the mods folder, just drop in the dll

@elfin river ^
Try changing your resolution, or you may be able to change it in the globalsettings file for the mod, located with your save files
has it seriously been updated since less than a month ago
Navigate to your save files, copy the userx.dat rename it so the "x" is 1-4 representing the save slot, 1 being top 4 being bottom
ite ty
?saves

It's been for a while, it just wasn't pinned for a while as well
what version is the "current stable patch"
1.4.3.2
k
lookin for any ideas, i couldnt find in pinned messages, but since ive installed modloader i havent been able to click on my fullscreen option at all, so ive been getting some stuttering and the game minimizes when i click off of it now which didnt happen before. is that a 1.4.3.2 thing or a modloader thing?
wait user1.dat.bak1 copy and rename user2.dat.bak2?
Thanks for your reply. How can I get the setting file for this mod? I only have ModCommon.GlobalSettings.json and ModdingApi.GlobalSettings.json
No, the one that doesn't have the .bak part
It's not there? That's odd
Try alt + enter
thanks, i tried that already but it switches my game between my current problem fullscreen with full windowed mode with the taskbar
is debug mod suppose to not work with daughter of hollownest?
what i have going on rn is some weird half full screen
where is it i cant seem to find it
Make sure you have modcommon and don't have moresaves
Can you screenshot the folder?
i have modcommon and dont have more saves
In what way is debug not working?
like it says i have it installed, but its not showing up in mods menu or when i press f1
Oh, well uh. Make sure it's enabled and uninstall it and reinstall it?
here
Oh
i use the 3rd 1 down
i restarted the game and it's there. Thx
so copy user 3 and rename to the # of an unused slot?
Then try navigating to your mods file, and check for debug.dll, if it's in the disabled folder move it out. Sometimes it can't properly move em for some reason. Also make sure your installer is on your desktop and run it as administrator
ty
Hmm, okay then one more thing to try
Navigate to your save files this time, and try deleting the "Debug.globalsettnigs" file
wheres my save files
(For Windows:) Press Windows Key + R on your keyboard > paste the following into the terminal that opens: %APPDATA%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\ > select "Ok"
both
k ima try
my game crashed
ok there
restarted again and it worked thanks
"itssoulgood omg
bad puns lol
the worst puns are always the best puns
well, i put the dll into the mods folder, but nothing new seems to have happened, even after closing and reopening the mod installer
it's not gonna show up on the mod installer
That's not something you can do with mi2, just launch the game
My Modinstaller is not detecting a hollow knight path. How I can I fix this?
Path it there manually, where did you buy the game?
Okay, well do a couple things, first. downpatch the game (check the pins), second make sure your installer is on your desktop and ran as administrator. Third, path it there manually, to find the file path go to the steam library > right click HK > select properties > local files > browse >check the file pathing
yes
what?
Browing files.
oh
it'll place you in the hollow knight folder, that c ontains hollow knight data. The hollow knight folder is what you want
Thats it?
yea
Thanks
im having an issue with custom knight, i checked pins and did everything thats there and its still not working :/
well what's the issue?
its just not working?
in what way
and im pretty sure theres ment to be like a ui or something with pictures
i click on the skin i want and it seems to load something, but doesnt work?
Does rainy knight work?
was the doc i got the skins from outdated
not really, the killer whale skin just has broken format, it's working right now. It's just not changing the knight part
i see.
and n o i dont think rainy knight works either
Here's a fixed version
Or you can manually fix it if that's easier
other than that make sure this is right
oh it says installed
ops
wait no i read it right
yeah the only two things i have active are modcommon, and custom knight
and thats how i have them formatted
that doesn't show me the format
ops
open the skin folder
killer whale?
yes
Ye athat's right
by the looks of it in the drive it has some random extra folders in between the sprites and the mods custom knight folder
its working now, no idea why it wasnt before
maybe killer whale was just messing it all up
but the one you sent me works fine :)
thanks
for some reason whenever I download the modding api and modcommon, my hollow knight just breaks. I can open it but none of my saves ever load and if I click on the mods settings in options it is a blank page with a bugged back button that doesnt allow me to go back, I should note that everytime I have downloaded the api I also download custom knight (I want to play with custom skins)
^
so now I have the problem of where custom knight wont show, I have uninstalled and reinstalled it a couple times with the fyremoth skin and both times I neither see it in the options mod menu and in game
Don't see what?
I installed custom knight but once I got in game I didnt see it in the mods list in the options menu, and it wasnt in the main game either
so I dont think it was installed
Check your mods folder for the dll
Then do what you did to fix the save files loading but delete custom knight.globalsettings
ok
can someone please direct me to a list that tells me what each mod does in the mod installer

hello again the mod appears to be broken in the sense that then boss doesnt load in and dies in one shot
any ideas on a fix?
For the dies in one shot, maybe make sure you don't have debug set to instakill or accidentally amped up your nail damage,
And for the not loading in, maybe make sure you have the dependency mods, like serecore or modcommon or somethin?
will do ty i will update gimme a sec
question: does the version of modinstaller being used matter? because the most recent version doesn't open and i can only use an older version. this however makes me wonder if im getting the most updated mods possible or old versions of mods
An outdated version of mod installer 1 won't open, and for mi2 it doesn't matter but you might be missing a feature. The list of mods isn't stored on the installer it's stored elsewhere and all installers pull from the same place so the list of mods should always be the same and fully updated
it worked ty
i was somehow unaware that there was a modinstaller 2! thank you :)
It's very similar to Mod Installer 1, just with a different UI, different backend code, works better on mac than mi1, and has some extra features but also lacks some features
i am wondering when i fall in to spikes with debug mod i get stuck in the spikes can anyone help
Turn off invincibility, or noclip out
also it says that it is unable to find local files
what?
move the installer to your desktop, run it as administrator, and make sure you've downpatched
Did you do what I said?
Trying to host using HKMP & zerotier but when I put in my physical IP address (is that the right one?) to the connection setting on HKMP and then started hosting, I now am invisible. the other mods I have currently installed are debug (enabled), HKML (enabled), & Hollow Point (disabled). Please advise on how to reappear XD
Nvm got it hehe
can someone tell me which mod it the one that speedruners uses y'know the one where u don't have to go to the dream relem to kill the dreamers
i think QoL (quality of life) does it
ok ty
Please be aware that 'Speedrunners' don't use any mods
They are not legal for speedruns
can anyone pass me a randomizer link?
Why does hollow knight crash when I open it I put debug menu mod
Did you downpatch?
If not

wdym you must have put it wrong
The CustomKnight folder needs to be set up like
CustomKnight
SkinFolder
.png files
You probably have a .zip file somewhere there or have an extra folder containing the .png files
In either case take all the png files from whatever extra thing you have and put them in the correct location

The mod installer
That you were linked to
When you asked where you could get it
I gtg do stuff now, if anyone else needs help can’t get it from me for about an hour
Bruhhh
skins, when i try to apply one in the menu, will just make the menu disappear and not apply it
Very true
also when i try to use the gun in hollow point, it fires once on a 5 second cooldown and doesn't even produce a bullet
- Hollow point and ck don't work together
- Read the readme
ah i'm dumb
the fusiler's fury charm's downside doesn't work
it says it makes you take double damage from any source
this is from the gun mod btw
Does it make you do double damage or enemies? And I’m case it should do double damage to you: why do you care? Less damage.
"You now do increased SOUL regeneration, and gain more upon hitting and killing opponents, but any damage you receive is doubled."
from the charm description
i care because i feel it would make the game too easy

quick question why cant i look in the pictures of the knights skin in google drive
do i have to disable enemy randomizer when loading a non-rando save, or can i just not load it? (pls ping in answer)
hi w/a friend we installed multiplayer client, i got the multiplayer server and i host hamachi, yet we don't move on each other's screen. Any ideas ?
Please ?
Enemy Randomizer is unrelated to Item Randomizer.
There's a pin about this:
#archived-modding-help message
Essentially: you should really switch to the newer multiplayer mod instead; if you really want to use the old very unstable one, then those are the instructions for it.
It won't allow me to saying it does need the code?
Just click the appropriate patch then close the window
Ah I see, dumb question. Thanks
I even updated the instructions message and the image 
how do i install badly translated
why does it say connection failed when i try to connect to a server using hkmp?
double check that what you entered is correct. and that you're connected to the internet. and that your port is correct, etc
I can't see what you've done, so I have no clue
you just... make one
it's part of the menus
networks -> make new network
and your IP is the big number by the power button
ohh yea sry i wasnt logged in
right
so, is custom knight broken? cause when i try to install it it says i need to have a stable version of hollow knight, but theres no updates for hk.

i already installed some mods before, but now when i start lauching modinstaller, that's say that :/ even when i choose the correct path with HK 1432 version.
where'd you buy the game
Steam
what is the exact path you're selecting
ty
F:\Games\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight 1.4.3.2
why is that your folder name
cause i have multiple versions
i tried to change the name of the file but that's still not work
Screenshot the inside of that folder and send it here
what do i enter in network id when i try to join someones network in hamachi?
whatever their network is called
its just the name?
yes
ok that work 😄 thx
mods are updated to their release versions by the installer
any idea how I can get the randomizer with more restrictions then?
hey guys im trying out custom knight but daughter of hallownest doesnt change my skin
you need to download each skin seperately from a google drive. if you want to find the skins, I recommend you watch fireb0rn's video on it
name was something like "how to download custom skins for hollow knight"
i got it seperately, im clicking on it but its just not downloading
i mean
applying *
idk
MY modloader thing i got says update the game but i cant.
how do i get the new randomizer version? i saw there was a new version with randomized swimming and such but cant seem to find it.
i deleted the old daughter of hallownest one and got a new one but it still dont work
everything else works except daughter of hallownest
even radiance knight doesnt work
then your folder structure is probably wrong
pretty sure randomized swimming is in the installer version. just open the installer to prompt an update. if not, you can get the beta build of randomizer to install yourself from #randomizer pins

if i want to go back to vanilla do i have to delete the mod install from appdata?
should be a button in the mod installer labelled "revert back to vanilla". If that option deletes something you don't want to, you could just disable all the mods you have installed
no. just verify game file integrity and you're good

what this option do in randomizer 3?
curses
all the cursed things
yeah but like when is it off
any way to change the Hollow Knight game file path for ModInstaller2?
that's the idea, yea
for the folder selection, do I select the whole folder, or just hollow_knight_data, or just Managed?
Whole folder
installer 2 auto detects
it said it couldn't do it
makes sense, my computer is a mess
i move around files a ton
what OS are you on
Same mods as the other Mod Installer, but uses a different UI, works for more systems, and is a bit faster to load.
I thought 2 was just better in general
||1.5 Installer is essentially a clone of 2, so probably better to get used to it now I'd imagine||
it wont let me open the app and it keeps on getting this app that's called AU
%appdata%..\Local
how do i find this folder?
Copy and paste it into the address in file explorer
now when i go into hollow knight all of my saves arent loading
im using modinstaller 2 now
and my hollow knight seems to be broken
hello?
How do you view the customknight skins? When I click on the blank files, nothing happens.
Like these.
download em
Thanks.
@proud merlin
when i try and hit an enemy with my nail, it doesn't do anything? It plays the animation and knocks me back, but the enemy doesnt take damage?
I have QoL, Benchwarp, and CustomKnight installed
And Qol and benchwarp are disabled
You may have reduced your nail damage, if you ever had debug installed. Try installing debug mod and raising your nail damage
Sweet! Thanks!
I have - as push to talk and had the game open in the baclground
That makes more sense!
can anyone help me figure out why all the custom knight skins wont ever load for me? is there something wrong with the files that could be doing this? i got the new installer and im on the right update which is 1.4.3.2, so what could it be?
my custom knight mod is up to date too so idk the problem
The fourth pinned message lists what your issues are most likely to be
let me see one sec
alright let me make sure if one of them works out
wait what? i guess apparently modcommon wasnt installed even though i just had it up
welp at least it's probably solved now thanks TamiJo!
Always better to have simple problems than complex ones
oh yeah for sure
Hey, I know this isn't strictly hollowknight modding but because it's for the multiplayer mod I thought to ask here. My friend is connected to my ZeroTier Network just fine, but with me it says Access Denied even though I added the node id. Any tips?
so guys
i need
help
even after i made my game on the 1.4.3.2 it still dosent let me download the mod ma i have windows
can anyone help
- Have you opened your game to verify it is actually on 1432?
- What do you mean "won't let me download the mod ma"?
so after i put it to 1.4.3.2 it only lets me update the game it dosent let me play
i have only the option to update it
?pins The dll for it is in the pins

If you mean after setting the beta, yea it has to download. It says update but it's just downloading 1.4.3.2
I cant seem to find an older version of the mod installer for Mac OS 1.12.6 even in the pins of this channel any way to get an older version
@native ice you saved my life bro
Does this one not work? And if so in what way? How do you know it's that you have an old os?
#archived-modding-help message
how do i get the newest version of randomizer which has randomized charm notches?
re reinstalled randomizer 3 hoping it might download an update or something but no luck
It's a beta version, you can download it from the pins of #randomizer
thank you
When I open the Mod Installer it gives me the error
anyone know why some mods I downloaded don't work? I'm not sure what to do, custom knight seems to work fine but nothing else seems to
What mods? and in what way do they not work?
Hmmm, I guess you can manually install mods
Do installed mods need to be put in a folder? I've put them in AppData > LocalLow > Team Cherry > Hollow Knight but they're not showing up in-game
How do I do this
uh, charm overhaul, exaltation, and fragile strength for nail arts, they just don't seem to work, I have checked the mods, like in options and it only says custom knight but it says in the top left that they are installed
- That's the wrong location, you needa be in a completely different directory.
- Why are you not using the installer? It does all this automatically
The "Mods" tab doesn't show all the mods, all that matters is that they're i nthe top left
?mods

The first few mods I tried were with the installer and that's where they put them
ok thank you
Most the mods can be found in the google drive, make sure you install the "Modding API" first.
Uh, that shouldn't be possible...
Alrighty! Thank you so much I've been trying to figure this out for a while and you should have a promotion on the server dealing with all these questions
lmao, thanks but definitely not
Couldn't agree more with that
I see
Which allows you to change the settings of certain mods
First time using mods so sorry if I'm being dumb
It's all good
To find where the actual mods are, head to your steam library > right click HK > select properties > loca lfiles > browse > \Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\Mods\
ah so, everything that's on the left, should be automatically installed?
Where can I install the modding api or is it in the google drive and im just blind
I'll have a look, thanks for the help
Yea, it is. It's just a bit hidden by the names in the front. Gimme a sec
Here
ok thank you so much
And you said mods weren't showing up in-game right?
Yes
If the mod name is showing up in the top left then that means it's installed, just make sure it doesn't say "FAILED TO LOAD". Then you'll just have to test the effects of the mod, I suggest checking the readme if you're not certain what a mod does
In-game, if you open the options menu, is there a mods tab?
uh, where would failed to load appear? good night
Yes but nothing shows on it
It would show up replacing the version numbers in the top left
So you can see the top left
Well, you were actually in the right spot the first time. If you just delete the "benchwarp.globalsettings" file in the appdata directory, you shoud fix it
Ah great thank you!
For?
There should be a small window in the middle of the screen with the keybinds
just click the white dot on the right
Some of the dots don't line up with the text properly btw
And if you ever mess up keybinds or want to reset em to default, you can do so by deleting the globalsettings file for debug mod
Sweet! Thank you!
Ok this should be my very last question the README says only the path for windows and when I go to the Hollow Knight folder it shows the actual game in the folder do I paste the folder into there or do I do something else
What you needa do is:
First, open the folder you downloaded and all the folders inside it till you find a couple Assembly-Csharp dll files, then set that aside.
Second, right click on the hollow_knight.app and select "Show package contents"
Third, navigate down this path and be sure it's this path as the mac pathing is strange \Hollow Knight\hollow_knight.app/Contents\Resources\Data\Managed\
Fourth, place earlier Assembly-CSharp files, and the "Mods" folder, into the Managed folder, replacing any existing ones
1.4.3.2 is the modding version right?
Yes
cool
Yes
Step 2
yay, DRM comes to cause unnecessary problems once again...
apparently if you don't remove the drm and try to launch a modded copy that you have separate from the one in your steam library, it decides to just launch the copy in your steam game folder anyways... (I assume it's DRM)
which multiplayer mod should my friend and I use
Hollow Knight Multiplayer or HKMP, #archived-modding-help message
right, because we tried HKMP and when my friend tried to join me it just ate his connect button
same thing other way around
fortunately it can be fixed by just removing steam_api.dll from hollow_knight_data/Plugins
ate his connect button?
It dissapears, then shows nothing
no "connection failed"
no connection succesful
can't retry
unless restarting the game
we can join our own server just fine btw
Well, it hasn't fixed. Nothing's showing in the mod menu and I tested the health bar mod, so I'm pretty sure they're not working and not just not showing
Yet I checked through browsing the local files in steam and the mods are there
https://github.com/Extremelyd1/HKMP alright this channel seems faster is this a good multiplayer mod
The dll files plainly in the mods folder? No zipped folders or extra folders or anything
yep, I'm not sure what the issue is now
Try deleting all of the global settings files, especially qol since i just realized i missed that
there is a hollow knight server in spanish tell me please
I've just reloaded the game and its saying in the top left that its failing to load
I'll try that now
I don't think so
Ok thanks for notifying me
what is uuwuu mod
Changes a lot of the text in-game
what does it mean if you click the connect button in hkmp and it disappears, without giving an error
Makes uumuu harder and changes some other stuff I think
That's the current state of my files, have I missed anything obvious?
Ask why when I install any mod no matter that when I open the game I get an error?
Oh well that's the problem, charm overhaul is just the source code, the mod isn't actually installed, and custom hp bars is a folder for hpbar skins, not the mod
Have you downpatched?
Damn that's so simple lol
Well that's certainly progress! Any idea why its showing the others in the top left but not in the mods menu?
For clarification, they're now all in the correct place I believe
Ok, so I was trying some mods out, then I opened the mod installer from my taskbar, it glitched and opened up a large tab, all grey, with small text in the corner saying managed, and that's it. I closed it and reopened it, but it suddenly removed itself from the taskbar. Now, when I try to open it from the files, it shows an error saying it is unable to find the game files.
That's normal, some mods just can't be disabled in game
this appears to me when I open the mods installer
I have it pirated
Hahahaha perfect
I assume you mean the button said "Manual", that usually happens when there's an error and you click continue. And for the unable to locate game files part, place the installer on your desktop and run it as administrator
so... yeah the gun mod doesnt work
Then don't waste our time
in what way?
Thanks, I'll try.
sorry
Did you read the readme
Healing not working is part of the mod, gun not working happens when you don't read the readme and start a new save, quit to menu and reload the save
oh yeah what is hkmote
o
Emotes
so pretty much just for hkmp
or if you wanted to make a cinematic video or a youtube video or something of the likes
It asked for the installation path, I gave it, and then it says it can't find the files again.
Shitpost mods
o
?
^
As long as they're in the top left you're good
does anyone know why inferno king grimm crashes on the big fireball attacks?
Ahhh cool
Honestly man thanks for the help, you've been incredibly patient. I would never have gotten there on my own!
Any idea how I can fix this^?
hey need some help with modding. ok so i had mod installer working fine about 5 or 6 months ago but my pc got corrupted and I had to reinstall Hollow Knight. now whenever I try to use mod installer it creates a file that says AU. I have redownloaded mod installer about eight times now and still does not work. one thing I have noticed is that it does not ask me anything about the path to hollow Knight or setting it up, click it, creates AU file, repeat. thx to who ever can help me
You may be using an outdated version. Where did you install it from?
Yeah, Nexus uses an outdated version of the Mod Installer
ok, where should i get it from?
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages. 
?i
thx
Why alll of the skin I've installed are just censored white?
Restart your game
Ah ok
ok so used that one and now it is just not working
in what way
I can install mods but the game does not show or have them
open the options menu and tell me if there's a mods tab
When I try and use CustomKnight it says "CustomKnight failed to load check ModLog.txt" is there a fix for this
nope
Did you just downpatch?
Make sure you have modcommon installed
is that on the mod download google drive page?
meaning?
yep
Downpatch hollow knight, mods dont work on the latest version
O ok

where do i put the folder? just in mods?
Yes, but put the dll, not the folder
oh wait
yea no
that's right
ok
I linked you a tutorial
it still says it failed to load
you just have to press the button
what?
Then try navigating to your save files and deleting the "Customknight.globalsettings. file
the link
(For Mac:) Open Spotlight by pressing Command + Space on your keyboard > type in "Terminal" and click enter > paste open ~/Library/Application Support/unity.Team Cherry.Hollow Knight/ into the terminal > press Enter on your keyboard > this will place you in your save files.
ok thank you
The folder doesn't have Customknight.globalsettings just ModdingApi.GlobalSettings and ModCommon.GlobalSettings
okay on right version and path, still same problem
Then your mod installer probably is looking in the wrong spot, or the modding api isn't installed
how do i fix it?
where do i put skin folders
Try resetting it #archived-modding-help message
In the Custom Knight folder within the mods folder
What os are you on?
windows
And steam?
yep
Head to the steam library > right click HK > properties > local files > browse > Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\Mods\Custom Knight\
do i need to delete all of the globalsettings.json files because the custom knight one isnt there
try it
or at least move them?
ok
custom knight isnt there
Did you install the mod and run the game once?
still says custom knight failed to load
Can you screenshot your mods folder for me
and inside the customknight folder is just "Default"?
shouldn't be
one other*
Just downloaded custom knight from the installer, maybe try this?
ok
I tried myself, how do i get to %APPDATA%
replace it with the other one?
yea try it
type that into the windows search bar
nice
nice
how do i reduce charm notch costs manually?
witch one
I meant this search bar, and type %appdata% in and hit enter
o sorry lol
Opened %APPDATA% and I see no HKInstallerSettings.json
Well fi you used the link i sent earlier you're using installer 1, and you need to go back a folder
👍
got it deleted, yet nothing changed
Was the installer closed?
did it again with it closed.... so yes
Then did you run the installer and make sure it was pathed to the correct location?
right?
yep
then yes
And the problem is that mods aren't showing up in game?
yes, they arent working in general either but yes. i can install from modinstaller and says it download but when i get in the game there is no mods.
open the pause menu and select em from the menu on the left
@native ice got any thing else i can try to do?
Well, can you check if there's a mods folder in your game files?
ya found one under Managed
In multiplayer mod, how does the host let people join their server?
I think i broke @native ice
Apologies had to do something
Honestly a bit confused how your situation happened so it's made me think there was a different problem, but it might just end up being a real simple problem, in-game if you open the options page is there a mods tab?
no
Assuming you're using the one on the installer, the client connects to the hosts server by using their hamachi ip and port.
There's a procedure in the pins
On the installer, near the bottom, is there a "Enable Modding API" button?
no
Then I guess give this a try, #archived-modding-help message
wtf 🥲
Wh at
?
Okay, well that's baffling. How bout manually installing the Modding API
there gone
w h a t
how do i do that?
are you having trouble removing the modding api?
I have trouble with a lot of things

Probably shoulda realized that a while ago
I’ve seen enough stuff on discord today
If you're gonna be clearing those out be careful not to delete your saves by accident lmao
saves aren't there

Always good to have backups tho
