How do I re-link the new Modding program to the game? A prompt is not opening for me

elfin geyser
#

Is this for Modinstaller or Modinstaller2?

#

Oh nvm

#

jekblushu Thank youuuuu

shrewd yacht
#

so started using mods for funny hollow knight but now I'm stuck in fullscreen mode and whenver I hover over it it just doesnt get highlighted, can someone help me?

rotund timber
#

Can anyone help me because it keeps showing that my hollow knight is out of date and it's not stable.

alpine lynx
#

Its just loading forever

real jacinth
#

.

alpine lynx
#

thx

rotund timber
#

@real jacinth I figured it out like 10 minutes ago

real jacinth
#

good for you

alpine lynx
#

yoo vasi.zip doesent exist

real jacinth
#

yoooo it does

alpine lynx
real jacinth
#

why are you worrying about vasi anyway

#

the thing I sent said to delete settings files

#

in not this spot

alpine lynx
#

when I download custom knight is says it cant acsees something

#

and custom knight dont work

real jacinth
#

cant access what

alpine lynx
#

ill do it again

real jacinth
#

is your game open

alpine lynx
#

no

real jacinth
#

is your installer on desktop

#

did you run as admin

alpine lynx
#

no

#

do I need 2

real jacinth
#

yes

alpine lynx
#

oki

#

thx

pliant lantern
alpine lynx
#

still didn't work

pliant lantern
alpine lynx
#

ok

pliant lantern
#

You may want to also delete the customknight.dll, then close Mod installer, and open it as Admin again, then re-install Custom Knight

alpine lynx
#

whats the difference between mod installer 2 and 1

native ice
#

Just some minor stuff and backend stuff

#

Different ui, mi1 lets you quickly install a mod that's not on the installer (and add it to your installer), mi2 comes with an open mods button and some organization features.

#

Mi2 works better for mac and linux than mi1

#

Mi1 has warnings when things go wrong, even if they aren't always very clear

split marten
#

bruh 3 mins into rando and i already got an area softlocked'

#

I got a dreamer pre FK and now the spell area is locked

pliant lantern
#

It's not locked

#

The doorway is still there next to Cornifer

#

That door doesn't exist in Infected Crossroads

split marten
#

oh ok

#

didnt know that

pliant lantern
#

Also, if you could get locked out of something in Rando, you won't in Rando. Any of the actual things that would lock you out are tweaked so that they don't.

native ice
#

For future reference, if you have a question about randomizers or rando logic and such, please use #randomizer, I believe the speedrunning server also has a section for that, the link to that server should be pinned in randomizer/speedrunning

split marten
#

oh ok cool

#

thx btw

alpine lynx
#

I have a custom skin and it does pop up in game under change skin exept I cant click it

native ice
#

Check the fourth pinned message

alpine lynx
#

thx

split crown
#

hey so one of my friends has 12 charm notches does anyone know how thats possible?

#

any mod that helps with that?

real jacinth
#

Charm notches is just a number in your save

#

You can change it to whatever

split crown
#

how do you do that?

real jacinth
#

If you have qol mod, you just change a JSON file

#

Otherwise you upload your save to the bloodorca site

split crown
#

oh but i know for a fact he didnt do that

#

and he hasnt installed qol

#

did he like pirate a different version of hk or smthn...?

real jacinth
#

Ask him

#

Why are you asking us

split crown
#

cause i wanted to know if there was a mod that does that

real jacinth
#

What's your end goal here

native ice
#

Was probably just a glitch, or they cheated. If they cheated then mickely just explained how you can too

split crown
#

alright thanks

real jacinth
#

Do you want 12 notches? Do you want infinite notches? Do you want to humiliate your friend?

#

I don't get why you're asking us.

split crown
#

to gain information on how it happened

real jacinth
#

So ask your friend

#

We have no idea what they did

split crown
#

he doesnt know either he thought it was normal thats whhy i asked it here

native ice
#

Then it was likely just a glitch

#

If he wants to fix it we can help with that

split crown
#

yeah please do thanks a lot

karmic tinsel
#

RIVER how do i make custom skins

native ice
#

The simplest way would be to take the Knight sprite sheet and just draw over it

karmic tinsel
#

yea but i wanna make one so that i dont loose normal sprite

native ice
#

Sorry what?

karmic tinsel
#

like i mean if i make that will i lose the main sprites for default knight

native ice
#

No... just copy paste the sprite sheet. Or if you use the one in the default folder it'll end up giving you a new file so...

karmic tinsel
#

im concernd

native ice
#

Even if you deleted the "Knight.png" file from the default folder i'm pretty sure it wouldn't break the skin, if there isn't a knight sprite sheet in a skin folder it defaults to the base knight

karmic tinsel
#

ok how do i draw over it MS PAINT?

native ice
ruby stratus
#

get a better program

#

MS PAINT?

karmic tinsel
#

yes,its the best program

vivid oasis
#

Hey, guys. Just installed Hollow Knight on Steam, will try the MOD now. 😄 hollowlove

native ice
vivid oasis
#

Will do. thanks, mate

karmic tinsel
#

how do i open this mod now

#

menu not mod

#

HALP RIVER.

limber egret
#

Which menu?

karmic tinsel
limber egret
#

If you have both Debug and Benchwarp they overlap which can cause issues. You need to hit the Charm button between the words "edge" and "peak"

#

So it's like towards the middle

#

Or else it won't detect.

#

(I would really like a way to change this.)

karmic tinsel
#

HOW DO I OPEN IT

limber egret
#

WHAT DO YOU MEAN

outer berry
#

WHAT DO U MEAN?

limber egret
#

Do you mean debug menu?

karmic tinsel
#

i do

limber egret

Press F1

#

heady bear
#

can i edit a save file to make it so i saved zote?

exotic willow
#

yes

heady bear
#

how?

exotic willow
#

I've heard quality of life mod lets you make your save a json file then just search through it for references to zote & change stuff

heady bear
#

i used a website

exotic willow
#

I've heard of that too

heady bear
#

do you know what the things that i would need to change are?

exotic willow
#

not specifically

heady bear
#

theres a boolean that i changed
zoteDead = false

fluid spruce
#

this may be a dumb question but do i have to click on 'enabled'?

#

got all of what i want installed, am i ready to play the game now or is there another step

heady bear
#

i think your good

fluid spruce
heady bear
#

maybe you missed a required mod?

#

i dont use mods much do i dont really know

fluid spruce
#

or do you need to reinstal it first so the mods can work

heady bear
#

you need to

fluid spruce
#

steam says this

heady bear
#

sorry like i said i dont use mods much

fluid spruce
#

i used the modinstaller like in the pins, it should go to 1.4.3.2

heady bear
#

yea

I downloaded the mod installer and downloaded hollow point, but I uninstalled it when it prevented me from using focus. I still have it uninstalled but focus isn't working. Does anyone know of a fix for this?

real jacinth
#

fix for that is in pins

#

.

vivid reef
#

Thanks

#

I do have a question though, is this supposed to allow you to use focus when you are still using hollow point? Or is it just after you've uninstalled it?

real jacinth
#

no

#

just after

vivid reef
#

Is there a way to use focus when you are using hollow point?

real jacinth
#

no

#

healing is changed

#

it's described in the readme

vivid reef
#

Ok, thanks.

#

Can the hollow point fix be installed at the same time as hollow point?

real jacinth
#

why would you want that

#

it'd make the mod probably unplayable

vivid reef
#

Ok, thanks.

novel bronze
#

my friend keeps getting the "unhandled exception" message, does anyone know how to fix that?

#

it says "an unhandled exception has occurred, if you click continue the application will ignore this erro and try to continue. If you click on quit the application will be terminated immediatly"

real jacinth
#

and what else?

#

just screenshot it

The hollow point fix isn't working.

pliant lantern

keen remnant
#

Thanks

#

Btw how do i put my Own trial in the game using the mod?

real jacinth
#

the readme should say how

keen remnant
#

I don't think it is

#

I also want to know how to save files in the Trial Editor

Does anyone know, if I downgrade my hollow knight version in order to mod, will i lose/effect my main save file for the current vanilla hollow knight version? or am I save to downgrade and start a new save, keeping my vanilla save in tact?

severe mica
#

hi I've been using custom knight, and when I try to use the skin, whenever I click on the skin to use, nothing happens

#

anyone know what's wrong?

rocky pulsar
#

do you have modcommon

severe mica
#

I dont think so

rocky pulsar
#

download it and try again

#

Not that I have enough experience for it, but if i were to make a mod should I use the 1.5 api or focus on the one for the current installer?

severe mica
#

either one, they're both the same skin

outer bison
#

#

and whats inside

#

im just making sure its not something

severe mica
#

its just another folder

outer bison
#

OH

#

you want the folder WITH the skin stuff inside of it to b e in the customknight folder

#

make sure tis not a folder inside a folder

#

that happens to new people alot

pliant lantern
#

For reference, Custom Knight skins should always be in this structure:

native ice

:(

#

can you help me?

native ice
#

Ask away

delicate parrot
#

so basically i installed hollowpoint and now it just makes me heal really fast and it makes me be able to heal at very little soul

native ice
#

That's normal, well... it shouldn't be actually healing you, but being able to focus quickly and have infinite soul is

delicate parrot
#

yeah but even when its turned off

native ice
#

If you want to keep the mod off and fix healing then follow these steps ^, if you plan on using the mod still then don't worry about the healing thing that's normal, and checkt he readme

Wait I can’t use it

#

It just puts my gun away

native ice
#

Uh, try using quick cast instead of focus?

#

What’s that

native ice
#

It's a different control, it's also what you should be using if you're using spells in vanilla btw, quickly check your control layout

wise ruin
#

Got it

native ice
# slim plank yes

Then try right clicking it, selecting "Show Package Contents" and then looking for an application in the folder that opens, then move that application to your desktop and run that

slim plank
#

there is a folder called "contents" and in that there is "macOS", "recources", and "info.plist"

#

i dont see any applications

#

oh i see it

#

is this what i should try to open?

#

oh, i think this is just the image file

#

yeah, it is

native ice
#

Uhh... I'm not too certain tbh. If I actually had a Mac I would test it myself so I could tell you more specifics but not really sure exactly

#

I think it's an application called "Mod Installer", maybe check inside the folders?

slim plank
#

i found the app, but that is what i looked at the package contence with. there is no application IN that

even in the folders

#

Uh, well how did the installer crash exactly?

slim plank
#

will it help if i paste the crash details in here?

native ice
#

Perhaps, can you describe the crash tho? Is it when you try and launch? Do you see anything?

slim plank
#

when i launch it, it just immediately crashes. i cant see the app or anything, it just crashes

native ice
#

Mod installer not Hollow Knight?

slim plank
#

yes

#

hollow knight works fine

native ice
#

Unless I'm forgetting something

#

Which is possible

drowsy fjord
#

if im using mod launcher 2, do i need to remove the other mod launcher files from hollow knight?

drowsy fjord
#

Thank you!

slim plank
#

what you suggested (right click, open executable on MacOS folder) worked, thanks!

native ice
#

dusty rover
#

Is there any way to mod the game on Xbox?

native ice
#

Unfortunately not

dusty rover
#

Oof

#

Guess I'll have to get a pc then 🤷‍♂️

novel bronze
#

I need help, what can i do in this case

jaunty saffron
#

look in pins

snow lance
#

Very confused... My mods are enabled on the installer but WeaverCore is not displaying when I boot the game. Everything seems to be in the right folders.

snow lance
#

No, it usually is. That's why I am confused.

native ice
#

Is it just weaver core or are all the mods like that?

snow lance
#

All the mods it seems.

native ice
#

Ah, then try this. Specifically the Custom Knight/Benchwarp part, if that doesn't work delete all the globalsettings files ^

snow lance
#

So I deleted the two files ModdingApi.GlobalSettings and ran the game. Nothing seems to have changed though.

snow lance
#

Oh okay, even if they are disabled I'm assuming.

native ice
#

Yep

glass meteor
#

1.5 supported

native ice
#

:O

snow lance
#

Hmm nothing. And I don't even see files for custom knight haha.

native ice
#

It's the 1.5 mod installer

glass meteor
#

i think the first sentence is pretty self-explanatory personally

native ice
snow lance
#

Oh y'know ya it definitely is lol.

#

Its been awhile since I've played so this makes sense. Thank you sir.

native ice
#

Oh wait, I kinda just misread your original problem, did you just recently downpatch or had mods been working for a while before hand?

snow lance
#

So last time I played the game with mods was in like January, and I haven't changed anything.

#

But the game itself has updated since.

native ice
#

Ah, I assume you downpatched?

snow lance
#

No, I had no idea I needed to.

native ice
#

O

#

Well that probably explains it, yea third pinned message

snow lance
#

I was just trying to check out an old randomizer run I never finish lol.

native ice
#

Or you can actually just use the thing 56 just posted and use 1.5 mods

#

There's not as many but they've got some new updates and stuff

runic crescent
#

So can anyone help me?

#

Im using some mods but everything keeps glitching

#

My speed, health, soul

#

The rando is completely broken

#

What should I do?

gloomy coral
glass meteor
#

yeah

#

then no one would use it

#

again

#

and then i would shoot myself

gloomy coral
#

Seems reasonable

snow lance
#

?

#

Damn there's no readme

glass meteor
#

i mean opening the exe can't be that hard right

snow lance
#

Yeah but now what?

glass meteor
#

press the checkbox next to installed to check it so it is installed

#

this reminds me

#

@gloomy coral any debug

gloomy coral
#

Soon ||in like 5 mins||

snow lance
#

Yeah I don't see it, oh well.

glass meteor
#

what

#

bro

#

show me what you see

#

win+shift+s

snow lance
#

Command prompt comes up for a split second and disappears when I run the .exe

glass meteor
#

is that all

snow lance
#

Yup

glass meteor
#

shoot me

#

ok

#

is there a log file in the folder

native ice
snow lance
#

Nope, not that I see.

glass meteor
#

if you go to %appdata% is there a folder called HKModInstaller

snow lance
red mirage
#

was running into the same problem and all it says is "Loading..."

snow lance
#

Unless the path is more specific.

native ice
#

It should be in roaming

glass meteor
#

go into Roaming

red mirage
#

for the 1.5 mod installer

glass meteor
#

wonderful

red mirage
glass meteor
#

insane

#

glass meteor
#

native ice

glass meteor
#

i would recommend further exploring city before using godmode ngl

grim crypt
#

same thing happens

native ice
#

Wait, is it watcher knights?

glass meteor
#

nothing else different in the logs?

grim crypt
#

nope

glass meteor
#

wtf

novel bronze
#

great thx

glass meteor
novel bronze
#

but if i were to mod then which menu would i use

glass meteor
#

are you sure there's like nothing else in ModInstaller.log

#

debug but that would require downpatching for now still

#

pita

red mirage
#

same thing is happening

glass meteor
#

nothing else in logs though still?

red mirage
#

still just "Loading..."

grim crypt
red mirage
#

or rather "Launching..."

glass meteor
pliant lantern
#

Have you both moved the extracted folder to your Desktop?

glass meteor
#

that shouldn't matter

native ice
#

Couple of random thoughts that probably aren't right, but are you guys running it as administrator, and maybe turn off your firewall?

glass meteor
#

omegamaggotprime

#

the folder looks like this right?

pliant lantern
novel bronze
#

i'm having the same issue with the "lauching", the scarab.exe opens for a sencond and then closes

glass meteor
#

without the zip in it

grim crypt
#

yep

glass meteor
#

what does the log say with the most recent one

grim crypt
#

this time the log says and I quote "I am the imposter in among us"

#

oh from

red mirage
#

yeah

glass meteor
#

alright so i'm not losing it entirely

#

only mostly

red mirage
#

sad

glass meteor
#

it doesn't say "test" though?

red mirage
#

nope :(

grim crypt
#

no

glass meteor
#

wtf

red mirage
#

well on a good note it stayed open 0.2 seconds longer than normal

grim crypt
#

same here lol

glass meteor
#

this one is uglier

grim crypt
#

same thing but stayed open a bit longer

glass meteor
#

same logs?

grim crypt
#

said same thing in log but added "end of SetupLogging"

glass meteor
#

it doesn't say anything about a try catch though yeah?

grim crypt
#

no

glass meteor
red mirage
#

yeah got the same thing

#

as him

glass meteor
#

if you run it from cmd is it still no output

red mirage
#

not same as before

pliant lantern
#

What OS are you both on?

glass meteor
#

they are on windows

#

do either of you have .net 5

pliant lantern
#

But which Windows?

grim crypt
#

10

red mirage
#

.net 5? oh...

#

lemme get that

glass meteor
#

i'm just curious it should be framework independent in theory

#

i published self-contained

grim crypt
#

I have to go now good luck!

red mirage
#

.net 5 didn't fix it

#

also my windows is windows 10 pro (10.0.18363 Build 18363)

glass meteor
#

i figured it out

#

awful

#

you

red mirage
#

yeah?

glass meteor
#

no someone posted a link here

#

and then deleted it

red mirage
#

oh

glass meteor
#

if you re-download it off github it should work now i think

#

fingers crossed

red mirage
#

alrighty

#

it works!

glass meteor
#

yoo

#

is there like a terminal floating around w/ it still

red mirage
#

ye

#

idk what it means it just makes me confused

glass meteor
#

did you hit donate or open mods

red mirage
#

oh

#

I hit open mods

glass meteor
#

hmm

#

oh

#

did you install any mods

red mirage
#

I tried but it crashed

glass meteor
#

oh

#

can i have the log

red mirage
glass meteor
#

was this when you clicked on a checkbox

red mirage
#

yes

#

I gotta do something real quick brb

glass meteor
#

alright

pliant lantern
#

56, fwiw, every like second or third mod I attempt to install using Scarab, is freezing at 99% "downloaded", and I have to completely close the installer.

glass meteor
#

which ones or is it just any

pliant lantern
#

So far it has frozen on: MetroidVania and HKHKHKHKHKHK

#

But after closing it again, and opening it, it does whatever the first one I choose fine, and sometimes the second fine

glass meteor
#

is it actually installing them in the right spot btw

#

if you look in mods

pliant lantern
#

Like, I closed and reopened, and was able to get MetroidVania without any issues

#

It is, yeah

#

Rn it's stuck on HKHKHKHK

red mirage
#

back

glass meteor
#

i fixed your thing gimme a sec

#

i gotta put up the releases again

#

oh wtf

#

i see what you mean

#

ngl

#

Oh

#

I'm an idiot

#

thanks

glass meteor
red mirage
#

the logs one?

glass meteor
#

yeah the one w/ logs in it

red mirage
#

done

#

uh

glass meteor
#

yeah?

#

ok now it should be updated 🥴

red mirage
#

what do I do now?

#

oh

glass meteor
#

re-download off github

red mirage
#

alr

#

ight

glass meteor
#

sorry had to rebuild it a few times

#

i really need to script that

#

zipping is a pain

red mirage
#

ah rip

#

working fine now

glass meteor
#

yoo

#

sick

#

@grim crypt / @snow lance you'll want to delete your HKModInstaller folder and then download the new one or download the new one and re-select your path in change path because i had a bug w/ the auto-detection

#

i think deleting the folder is easier though tbh

grim crypt
#

Alright do that when i get the chance thanks!

glass meteor
#

cool

pliant lantern
#

Multiple Mod installs are smooth now

glass meteor
#

sick

red mirage
#

btw how come there isn't custom knight?

glass meteor
#

idk nobody has updated it yet

red mirage
#

ah

#

alr

pliant lantern
#

CustomKnight will be on it this weekend most likely

#

Dandy (current CK dev) is really only free on weekends

novel bronze
#

sorry, do i delete the HKModinstaller folder from the roaming folder?

red mirage
#

do I need the dll or just the zip?

pliant lantern
#

Uh, one note though iirc:
I can't remember if this one has the settings bug fixed.
If not, then you may need to delete your CustomKnight.GlobalSettings.json in your saves folder

pliant lantern
#

Wait

#

actually

#

one sec

gloomy coral
#

You sure that would work?

#

Cuz old API?

red mirage
pliant lantern
#

Ignore what I said then.
There's a good chance (like, very good chance) that that won't work at all

#

And I have wasted your time zote

red mirage
#

eh it's fine

#

I gotta go though

#

thanks for all the help everyone!

Well.. 1.5 installer will get the right one.
1.4 installer gets the Windows one, which mostly works on linux, but you can have controller issues.

native ice
patent sparrow
native ice
#

Ah, okay. Well due to a recent update the installer isn't compatible with the latest version of the game, HOWEVER literally yesterday a new updated installer came out. The 1.5 (new) installer doesn't have quite the same mods as the 1.4.3.2 version, since 1.4.3.2 was the stable patch for 2 years, but 1.5 does have more updated versions and some new mods. And btw the version difference between 1.5 and 1.4.3.2 is negligible, there were very few changes that a player would notice

#

If you wanna use the 1.5 installer, first pinned message, if you want the 1.4.3.2 installer, 3rd pinned message
