Yeah, you've done these things in the wrong order so your installer is getting confused
oh?
Check the pins for how to reset the installer
Wouldn't it be the "If mods still aren't working" section of the 3rd pin?
do i run the bat file
okay i have ran it now what do i do?
Open your mod installer again and it should show the API as out of date. If it does click it to update it again.
If it doesn't, church the "if mods still aren't working" section of the third pin like River suggests.
ok i clicked the out of date box
it works thanks alot for your help š
for multiplayer mod do you need to host somehow or it auto hosts and your friend just needs to connect
if you use the 1.5 version of HKMP on scarab, just press start hosting and let your friend connect
then you need to start hosting, then connect to yourself
then your friend can connect
do you have the multiplayer server mod
yes
the host need to multiplayer host and client mods, you friend only the client
does it not work if he has server too
he doesn't need it
i still dont get it
Create a new save
okk
make sure you have:
serecore
QoL
vasi
benchwarp
modcommon
i gave you a post to all info you need
place installer on desktop, run it as admin
well judging how fast you are back you either did not do it or did not wait at all
then you did not wait at all
on my friend's screen i'm stuck in place and if i kill an enemy it doesnt appear on his screen
is that a skin..
yes thats rick knight
thats hallarious
yes
its the whole reason i spent half an hour modding the game
among sus
i need help getting the modintaller to work pls
How do i get my hud back after hiding it
can someone pls help me get the mod installer to work?
Thanks to the pins, I got everything up and running on our Mac!
Are you on Windows?
yup
Sorry idk more about that platform.
oh its fine its just the pins are working
Hi! When I try to open the modinstaller, directly installed from pins, It just says
Warning! This installer requires the most recent stable version to run.
Please update your game to current stable patch and then try again.
Steam shows no updates, and I just forced an update anyway, so I really should be on latest version, although I haven't found a way to verify that. What could be wrong?
Are you using scarab or modinstaller?
Not sure tbh, what's the difference? Are they different programs?
Yes, check pins
Aaand sorted, thanks!
So Scarab cannot run Custom skins?
Are randomizer saves cross-installer compatible?
Good afternoon smart people I require your help.
Me and my friend are trying to use Custom Knight and the multiplayer mod and the multiplayer mod isn't working anymore (it's worked before without Custom Knight) so to all of you people who've fixed this problem or know what's happening please send help.
In properties go to betas then click 1.4.3.2
That should fix it
Installed Scarab instead, but thanks anyway!
on debug mod, my gui always appears half off of the screen
is there any way to fix that
https://gyazo.com/bfdf5f940036902ef30be144d2bca84c also please ping if you answer
hello, can someone like guide me or send me a video on how to download mods for HK
pls respond with a ping
wait
theres some pinned
ill check those out first before requesting help
i got the skin mod after i watched a fireborn video i've located the file but it says the game version is out of date even tho its the latest update. any suggestions on what i should do?
you need to be on 1.4.3.2
go to hk
properties
betas
ok ty
then switch it to 1.4.3.2
ngl, a good reason too, i did the same but i like the pink bow 2,0
very nice
also, is there any quality of life mods that are normal game that one should use
When starting a game with the randomizer mod 3, the screen vibrates and I can't do anytning. Any known issues that could cause this? Steam version, ModInstaller, Windows 10. EDIT sorted, may have missed a required library, or it was some conflict, idk
I have this popup whenever I try t open HK
I've heard there's a mod to change damage values, like The Collector in HoG since I'm trying to practice for P5AB. Can someone tell me where the mod is and how to download it?
Here, I've done this before. Go to steam.
yep
Right Click on Hollow Knight and go to Properties.
Verify etc.?
Click on Local Files, and then do Verify Integrity of Game Files.
or do i go back to 1.5 version
That should fix your problem.
If you go to 1.5, I don't know if most mods will work.
well i wanna go back to vanilla gameplay
Just verify the game's integrity. After it's done, your problem should be fixed.
If it's still modded, you might wanna ask someone else.
thank ye
No problem.
on my friend's screen i'm stuck in place and if i kill an enemy it doesnt appear on his screen
- I don't know 2. enemies aren't synchronised
No multiplayer mod synchronizes enemies.
That aside, what mods are you using?
where is the saved data stored
i am trying to reload backup saves after no longer using mods

Hey folks, completely new here, just downloaded the ModManager2 and wanted to play with Lightbringer. I've hit install and enable, but the game just crashes immediately on startup. Any idea what could be causing it?
Why does it take 1000 years to load into the final boss
Is it a mod I have
It still ain't loaded
Still not loaded
I assume you mean "Mod Installer 2"?
- Are you on the correction version of HK? (The one is to 1.4.3.2)
- Do you have a controller plugged in? (If so, unplug it, laucnh HK, and plug it in on main menu)
Help
Apologies, yes that's the one. Allow me to check my version
Pls
You got Infinite Load, which is actually a vanilla bug, but more common with mods. It happens more with mods because either:
- Something is wrong with the mod itself / you're missing a dependency
- The game ran out of resources. If you have a lot of extra mods, you can try disabling those and trying again. Regardless, you'll need to close HK.
Ok
Given that every mod I will need is already supported in the 1.5, is there any good reason to change back to it now? or is 1.4 just fine?
Okay, apologies again, I'm not entirely sure what version I am running. How do I find this out, and if I'm running the wrong one how do i fix that?
Go to properties, then beta
1.4 is fine, as long as you have QoL installed there isn't really a reason to go to 1.5, except for mods that are only for 1.5 (or have special updates for 1.5, like howwowknyight).
Okay, done. What next?
If you open your game it displays it in the bottom left corner, also.
thx
Oh, good to know, thank you!
If you are on the wrong version, the third pinned message tells you how to change it

What's the room randomiser called
I'm vibing with doing a room+item rando run, I don't think I saw room randomiser in 1.5?
Tmk it isnāt released yet for 1.5
It will probably be called randomizer, randomizer 3, or randomizer 4
Randomizer 2 prob isnāt being ported
nooo, not my homeboy randomiser 2
alr found the beta, attempting to download mod installer
Will i mess up my save file if i open my 1.5 flies in the beta
I probably will try to avoid that just in case but I might forget
What is skin modd
yesss ok thanks got it
nice
Aa
How do I deactivate mods
I installed a bunch I felt like I might use but now I don't want them all to be turned on at once
OK I found how to turn off hitboxes
by clicking the button on the modinstaller
Yeah but where is the installer
Is it the .exe
I already downloaded it do I run it again?
Yes. An exe is an executable
Have you used windows before? Not judging. Just feels like something everyone knows.
OK yes found it
Usually exe's are installers so that's why I was bamboozled
It's called an 'installer'
hey i was wondering if anyone knows if its possible to have 2 versions of hollow knight installed at once? i would like to have the current patch and the downpatch for mods downloaded at the same time separately, as im pretty sure ive seen other people do, but i can't for the life of me figure out how. ive tried copy-pasting the whole folder for one version and then making the other folder the other version, but it updates both folders to be the same version, even with renaming. it's really a hassle to constantly up-patch and downpatch whenever i want to play current patch or modded >.< thanks
Actually a lot of installers are .msi
Anyway I thought it was an 'installer wizard' so I was expecting a separate app
It didn't help it didn't create a start menu shortcut lmao
I'm not an end user (deragatory) I promise, I was just having a moment
you need to have the steam_appid txt file in the one that youre not running off of steam
Nah. Itās just the program. Thatās also why it didnāt create a shortcut. I get how the āinstallerā part can mess people up
im sure ive seen both listed in someone's steam list though? wouldnt that make them both run through steam?
Anyway thanks lol
Step 1: install the game step 2: copy the game folder to somewhere else step 3 install the game again step 4: add the one you copied to steam as a non steam game
Youāre welcome
i tried that but they both synced to the same version after i updated the one from steam >.<
unless i just..did it wrong..
Dang. Try downpatching between step 1 and 2. So that the one you add as non steam is the earlier version
do i need to put the copied folder in an ENTIRELY different place? so like, not keep it in the steamapps common folder, put it in like documents or something? would that work?
Yes
let me try
Donāt keep it in a steam folder
but do you have the steam_appid txt file
i don't know what that is i cant find any mention of it
Wha
Where did my controller rumble go
I swear
Can't even find it in the settings to see if it's on
https://www.speedrun.com/hollowknight/guide/jlten ctrl f search it here itll say how
If you downpatched, use the controller vibration mod
ohhh its not something that already exists in the files, i have to make it. that makes more sense thanks
Alr that's much better, thanks again
Once you're used to it, it's so hard to play without
whats the mod that shows enemy hp and where can i get it
how do i get multiplayer to work?
Enemy HP bar. Check the pins for the mod installers
ty
it seems to have worked >.< the modded version loads up as expected with mods, and the current patch version loads up without it..everything seems to be working normally, so thanks for all the help! one last question on it, will affecting the saves on one version affect the saves of another? are they stored in the same place, despite the versions now being separate?
heya, can someone help me? I want to add a custom skin but for some reason modinstaller doesn't even run.. it says that I have to update my game to the latest version but there isn't a new one..
modinstaller requires a downpatched version of hollow knight
even tho it says latest lmao
downpatch your game to a previous version (through steam, just the numbered version listed works) and modinstaller should run just fine ^^

ty ty
so if I want to play on 1.5 version I have to install scarab?
Correct. Custom Knight is not yet available for scarab, but should be very soon
So if you can wait then you don't need to downpatch, if you don't mind downpatching you can get it now
tysm for your help 
so turns out yes, the save files are shared. i deleted a previous randomizer run on the modded version, went onto the up to date version and it was deleted there too. is there any way at all i can make the save files save..well..somewhere else, on the modded version? i've made a backup of my personal casual file but im still worried about it now
or should i just..keep the backup and boot it in if something ever happens? is that the only way around this?
Hi, I just downloaded the Mod Installer from the pinned messages here and downloaded CustomKnight and ModCommon. Every time I go to open my game it crashes and I'm not sure what to do
All versions of Hollow Knight share save files. You can use the MoreSaves mod to make and use additional save pages-- and the 1.5 version of it also has settings for making backups easily.
ok no worries, ty for all your help
Did you read the pins about which version of HK to be one for which installer?
Uhm, I think I've 1.4.3.2
Screenshot your install on Steam
Wdym?
Also are you on Mac or Windows?
Windows
On Steam in your list of games does it say 'Hollow Knight [1.4.3.2]' or just Hollow Knight?
Just Hollow Knight
Then you need to downpatch
The third pinned message has instructions on how to do it.
I have to downpatch to use mods?
Yes. It's very simple and quite quick
Or can I just use a more up to date installer?
You can use the more up to date installer but it doesn't have custom Knight yet
Ah, gotcha
Hopefully soon
Alright, thanks!
Does multiworld sync items, or do we get seperate items pools with items mixed into each other's games?
One message removed from a suspended account.
MultiWorld has seperate items, but they are mixed between all players' worlds.
ItemSync now exists too though, which is like regular Rando, but whatever anyone finds is sent to all players.
Ty mods 
Ok, that's what I thought. So, we're trying to use Multiworld, but it seems my friend can't connect with one version, and I can't connect with another. Any ideas?
Maybe with Sanic

Of course mods are still here, these are the modding channels 
what does the "dumb mod" do
cause when i enabled it i and all enemys are invis along with the gui
sounds about right i think
afaik, one player plays the knight, other uses keypad buttons to control dreamshield around player 1
keypad?
what uhhhhhh keypad
im playing with xbox 360 controller and keyboard if that helps
yea, p1 controls the knight with whatever layout/controller chosen, p2 uses the keypad (example attached) to control the dream shield dream shield
at least i think so, can ask @wheat orchid for help
@wheat orchid how do i work the dshield coop its not working
no
Did you read dreamshield coopās readme
no idk how to get to it with mod installer
In notepad
okey
The readme explains the controls
So, me and a friend finally managed to connect to the same game, but it won't let us start the game. Hitting start just doesnt do anything.
how do you get the mod menu?
I'm having trouble with the randomizer3 and Qol mod. I have modcommon, serecore, and Qol (although it says it cant load). both randomizer 3 and Qol they they cant load. I am using the steam version, the other mods are: benchwarp, custom knight, debug, enemy hp bar, Hkmp, and hollow point.

Ah sorry, idk how multiworld works, I thought you meant one of the multiplayer mods
MultiWorld is different from Multiplayer. Are you using the recent MultiWorld mod from Shadu? (see #randomizer pins
)
So, using that version (0.1.1), I can't connect to my own server for whatever reason. My friend can though. And thats making sure we have the exact same files.
Using the item sync one connects, but there doesnt appear to have any way in that version to disable the item sync to just do multiworld.
Item Sync is a different mod too lol
They are on the same release page because they're based on the same code.
You need to both have MultiWorld itself though, not ItemSync
Im really sorry to do this but I dont understand
What part?
Windows File Paths: (Assumes Default Steam Install Path, Adjust accordingly for DRM Free or Non-Standard Steam Path)
Save Files: %APPDATA%..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight
Game Files: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\
and if you're hosting the MutliWorld server on your computer, then you can connect using 127.0.0.1 as the IP.
Wait, do we just use the MultiWorldLib.dll and not the ItemSync.dll?
And ya, that's what i was using
It would freeze for a moment, then not change anything
You select the game files path unless you manually changed the installation location of hk or steam
kk thanks
how do I install Vasi through Github?
I'm double-checking with the person who's maintaining it, but afaik you just need this:
https://github.com/Shadudev/HollowKnight.MultiWorld/releases/tag/v0.1.1
There's also a public server that you can connect to
IP: 18.189.16.129
Why do you need to?
Itās on every mod installerā¦.
the mod installer gives me an empty zip file
Yes, so, using that version, I can't connect for whatever reaosn
Glad 56 messed something up before they left
Does the installer youāre using have a manually install mods button on it
I'm pretty sure they're getting the 1432 one, which wouldn't be 56's fault lol
Really?
it only has the manually install button, but it had a menu full of mods before
Graddow's mod installer has a known issue with some people's systems where it messes up extracting .zips
Huh, first Iām hearing of this
There's more than one pin about it too lol
could I get an install for vasi.dll?
Try using Mod Installer 2
It should have a loading bar while it installs Vasi
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/822798410892836864/874184713751908382/ModInstaller-Windows.zip
Which rando version does that work with?
Ok, so, same issue with the public server. Friend connected fine, mine lagged out for a minute, and didn't connect.
That sounds like it may be a problem on your connection then? (Plz correct me dwarf)
ok I got the instaler working, ive instaled the mods i want, and i have the game open, how do i get the mods working (yes they say enabled
Was the game open before you installed mods
yes
Donāt do that
kk
Once this game is closed, install the mod called āModdingApiā (on scarab and the original mod installer I think itās separate from the mods list)
thanks
If itās already installed, uninstall it and install it again
Could you please provide more info on your problem
I havent played with mods in awhile
and have installed the modding api 2
I really dont know how to work the interface to well, and it says my debug mod is enabled
When I open up HK, it doesnt appear
Screenshot the main menu of hk
Are you using scarab or another mod installer
no
give it a min
modinstaller 2
Is your game version 1.5 or 1.4.3.2
its fully up to date on steam
1.4.3.2
The most recent one is 1.5
So use the scarab installer in the first pinned message
the screenshot wont load
oh well
Its 1.4.3.2
And in the left corner, no mods appear
Could you see if a screenshot of the mod installer works
Try uninstalling and reinstalling the ModdingApi
If that doesnāt work, go to your save files path and delete all files with globalSettings in their names
how I do that here
?
on debug mod, my gui always appears half off of the screen
is there any way to fix that
https://gyazo.com/bfdf5f940036902ef30be144d2bca84c also please ping if you answer
Probably something with the resolution, donāt think much can be done quickly
alright thanks
I gtg now cya
alright
ok i got it all working but now there is a big box in the corner, how do i get rid of it
some what transparent, black and in the top left corrner, looks like a command consol
Reset the game
nvr mind fixed it, thanks for the help
Np
whats a fun mod to play around with
Depends what you're looking for
rlly anything
I guess if you're looking for something "fun", you want something that changes the game. So I'd suggest Lightbringer/Redwing/Hollow Point, or Randomizer 3/Enemy Randomizer.
eat a banana
Anyone have any guesses why i wouldnt be able to connect to the public multiworld server?
thanks for the suggestion this is really fun!
Uninstall modconsole (not to be confused with ModCommon)
Oh nvm sorry
So, with me running a server, I can connect with Item Sync, but I cannot connect with Multiworld.
And that's trying to connect to 127.0.0.1
Any ideas?
i don't know if this is mod related but when i installed my first mod the cutscenes were choppy sounding how do i fix this?
friends a question where can I download the PANTHEON OF THE NIGHTMARE
If you mean the room changes stuff, look it up on YouTube (iirc a vid on it by fireborn has a link) and only download the stuff relating to decoration master. If you mean the custom rooms plus the modded bosses and pantheon, refer to the same video but download everything
Tmk it will have download instructions
THANK.S
Also make sure youāve followed the instructions in the 3rd pin to make sure your game is on version 1.4.3.2 and use a mod installer for that version, the mods downloads from there only work on that version
how do i change the knight with custom knight
There's a tutorial for using the mods in the pins
ok
You install the CustomKnight and modcommon mods
kk thanks
Then you put skins in the CustomKnight folder
Didnāt I just tell you
You donāt need modcommon if youāre using 1.5?
Scarab is for 1.5?
Wait is custom knight on scarab now?
So my mods randomly stopped working and now when I open the game the mod loading bar just doesn't show up. I just reinstalled the game, but it didn't fix the issue. Anyone have a solution to that?
So went to run my game after a while and my mods aren't working. Tried to reinstall the mod installer and it said to update the game to the most stable patch. It already is, so I don't know what the issue is?
Navigate to your save files and delete all the globalsettings files for custom knight/benchwarp

How do you actually activate the enemy randomizer?
The item randomizer 3 is working perfectly now
Click the "[Load Enemy Randomizer]" button in the upper left of the title screen, and change settings in the options menu, there'll be ab utton below the back button
anyone have a list of the charms file names?
š¤
Am I blind?
Sometimes that happens, I believe you need to go to the options menu, and in the mods tab, turn enemy randomizer off then on and maybe restart
That fixed it. Thanks again!
is the mod that gives the knight a custon skin called customskin or customknight
i cant remember
Custom Knight
It's on the 1432 Installers, but not currently on the 1.5 Installer
Hello Im currently using the new api for 1.5 and the only mod that doesnt seem to work is custom knight
theres no way for me use or apply a skin, any ideas?
Custom Knight isn't out for 1.5
Looks like it's on Scarab now 
^
Try restarting your game entirely?
It looks like your ModdingAPI had an issue, because your Mods Menu isn't there.
If the Mods menu still isn't there, then you may need to post your ModLog
where would i find the modlog?
Do these things keep happening with no heads up, or am I just not checking the right places?
Tbf, I didn't know that Dandy did actually submit the CK PR yet. I knew that he was trying to get it up ASAP though
To easily get ModLog.txt on Windows:
- Press
ā Win+R - Copy and paste this into it
%appdata%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knightand hit "OK" ModLog.txtis in this folder.
Note: ā Win is the Windows button, in between Ctrl and Alt on your keyboard
Also, you might need to delete you custom knight global settings.
I thought that that was fixed, but maybe it wasn't?
It's in the same folder as ModLog
okay i got into my modlog
Alright I deleted my ck global settings
what should I do now?
Drag the modlog into discord and send it here
Or test if it's working now that you've deleted the globalsettings file
alright it works! thanks you :)
Can someone give me the link for the mod installer? I'm new to all this, but I really wanna try a randomizer.
Also my dad (who knows more tech stuff than me) is worried about a virus? anything that could ease his worries so he helps me with this?

thx
I believe this server has a partnership with discord (i might be mistaken), and team cherry is even in this server. As long as you get it from the pins it's practically guaranteed to be safe
okie!
does scarab only work on 1.5 or does it work on 1.4
former
no, it's only for 1.5. And the custom knight on scarab is different from the one on mi1/2 because they're for different game versions
i would get an item and enemy rando but its confusing for me
ok thx
so how do u open 1.5
or what beta is it
just launch the game
i tried but no mods
scarab no mods
how do u turn on scarab all of mine are enabled but when i launch the game theres no mods
if you open the options menu is there a mods tab?
nope
try verifying your game integrity and then running scarab again
how do i verify it
steam library > right click hk > properties > local files > verify
custom benchwarp and howokwight
If you used CustomKnight on 1432, then you'll need to delete your Global Settings for it
ive only used it on scarab
do it anyways
how do i delete them

whats that mean?
Means you might be installing mods on a game copy or in another place that's not your main game
how do i fix that
By not doing that
i dont follow
Right click the game in steam. Properties, local files, browse
That's your game spot
Then you can press the button on scarab to change install location
And make sure you select that spot
If you've ever had your game on another drive, or another game copy, or whatever. Scarab might be putting mods there instead
I'm new here and I'm very shy.. I can't find the answer anywhere and I'm sorry this isn't the place.. Is there a way to edit a mods config or settings or what its called for Hollow Knight? I want to use a custom skin with the Lightbringer mod but every time I sit at a bench it changes to the custom default skin that comes with Lightbringer
You can find the config for (some) mods in with your save files. I'm not certain what to change to fix your problem though
Does Lightbringer have a mod config? If it does have one what would it be titled?
All mod configs are titled "(Mod Name).globalsettings.json"
I'm not certain if lightbringer has one, but custom knight does. I think if you disable "Preload skins" or something, it may help?
There is no way to prevent your problem sadly
I believe redfrog sent a build which allows custom skins with lightbringer, but i can't find it.
That's unfortunate... Is Lightbringer safe to uninstall midgame and reinstall then?
If you don't load a save file affected by it you should be fine

Just testing something
Oh ok
hello
i tried getting the daughter of hallownest skin but idk where to put all the files can anyone help
You will see a folder called "hollow knight data". If you drag that to where your other hollow knight data file is, it will ask you if you want to replace files. Click yes to all.
This will make permanent changes to your game.
If you want to undo them you will need to verify integrity of your game files later, and reinstall the Modding API through the mod installer
You can also just take the skin part out and add it like any other skin
If you don't want the permanent changes, which I believe are like a custom menu screen and charms
so does it work like any other skin if i take all the png's with the hatchlings, the healthbar , etc and put them in the folder custom knight ?
and it works like any other skin without permanent changes?
so I installed the child of light mod and the focus spell thingy isn't working?
Yep, if you want the healthbar to change I believe you need the mod that comes with it, unless by health bar you mean your hud and not an enemy health bar
wich mod is the cuphead one?
oh ,okay
thank you
Indie Crossover has the cagney carnation fight
ty
Another question.. Does having mods disable achievements? I don't want to get an achievement I didn't earn because a mod made it easier
no
They don't disable them in-game or for steam, but they do disable with gog I'm pretty sure
Just go finish getting the achievements, with quality of life mods at most, and then play with the mods that change things up. Or avoid doing the ones you've yet to get
You can also do a Google search for things that will affect steam achievements. I believe there's stuff out there where you can give and remove achievements.
so hollowpoint still isnt working, i checked the readme, and it says to have:
A legit copy of Hollow Knight on either GOG or Steam
Make sure the Modding API correct installs itself when running the installer
Install and Enable "ModCommon"
Install and Enable Hollow Point
but the only thing that could be 'wrong' is the modding api thing, but i dont know how to check this
read the "Known issues extremely important to read" part
i think it's important to read
^
than i start mod installer i see that thing. what is that? i dont understand
How do i mod cracked hollow knight? I cant buy hollow knight since in my country 11$ is 500
You don't
Yeah ok
What installer?
modinstaller
using modinstaller 1, and this has started happening when i open the game. it was working fine before but now doesnt show my saves. i've reinstalled modinstaller and hollowknight (hollowknight works fine, but when i open modinstaller this happens. even with none enabled). any ideas?
check the pins

what version does mods work on
1.5.75.11827 or 1.4.3.2, there's installers for both versions
is there a mod that adds new bosses?
new or changed
Indie Crossover mainly. Pale champion kinda. Or any of the ones that change existing bosses
Can the mod api be installed into the hk file if i got it from game pass?
Sadly not
Well
Any particular reason why? Iāve never modded a game before
I believe it's just that it has strict permissions on changing files
There's this
#archived-modding-help message.
But I think like 1 person has tried it so far. You can try if you'd like
Oh sick thanks
whelp im not quite sure what im doing wrong but the dumper times out for me
Uh, random guess that's probably wrong. Did you maybe download the source code instead of the release? https://github.com/Wunkolo/UWPDumper/releases/tag/6.9.2021
i downloaded the x64 release, i decided just to fork the fifteen bucks on steam though, so hopefully modding is a bit better for me
Ah, okay
I've played with mods before, i converted back to unmodded to play vanilla for a bit, and i've reinstalled the api but when i launch hollow knight it's still vanilla
is compassalwayson compatible with 1.4?
No

Hey when you change to a hollowknight custom skin does it automatically change the mask hud too? Is it possible to just change the skin but keep the default masks?
um i did this thing:To Fix this error
- Make sure your installer exe is on your desktop.
- Reset your installer (#archived-modding-help message)
- go to your game files, and delete the Mods folder (Located at Hollow Knight->hollow_knight_data->Managed->Mods)
- Run the installer again as admin.
and now like i cant do anything on my desktop and it installed some au.exe thing
why my desktop is laging aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

um i like search about au.exe on the internet and i found out it may be some spyware stuff um shouldi be scared?
Hi all. Just joined this discord, here to ask around about the Hollow Knight Bingos (let me know if there is a better channel for this). First of all, you use BingoSync, right? It seems that (some of) the HK bingo generators are meant to have 'Tiebreaker' goals, intended to be at most one such goal per card. It is rare for it to happen, but I believe that the tiebreakers are currently not working as intended. This is dues to an error in the base generator used, something that we (I) have a fix for. I'm hear being curious as to how often the double tiebreaker tend to happen, and if there are any bingo events/tournaments coming up with seeded cards. We are trying to avoid having seeded cards wind up being different around the change if it is important. DM me if you can help, or let me know who here I should be contacting. Sorry for the wall of text, thank you for any help given.

Are the pngs of the skin inside a folder?
Is the menu there, but your skin just isn't?
I meant, in a folder inside the custom knight folder. so \Mods\Custom Knight\[Folder]\[PNGS]
it isnt
It should be
ok thanks
Just create a folder and name it whatever you want
i will try that
it says "custom" under "default" but it does nothing. Do I have to have a seperate folder for each skin?
Can anyone help me ?, I installed modinstaller and custom Knight, so I open the game and it does not let me change the window / full screen / borderless mode, it is as if the option does not exist, it is there, but it does not let me select it, apparently it is borderless, my monitor is 4: 3 so I need the full screen so that the image is stretched and fills the entire screen without the black bars.
Im new here.
Alt + Enter
Can you screenshot the inside of the folder with the pngs
ok
i tried, it just switched to windowed, and i need full screen.
That's not pngs, that's just a zipped file. Unzip it (Right click and select "Extract").
ok
I think they're using that one already, since i just linked it a minute ago
The numbers at the end concern me
i think I unzipped it.
oh, i see
they are all in a folder in the customknight folder, unzipped. They still do not appear on the menu. Should I quit and reload?

Anyone know how absolute inferno god grimm works? Do i need to install both the inferno king grimm and infinite grimm mod and just run them both at the same time? Also is it supported for 1.5? I know that inferno king grimm is only on 1.5 according to the latest patch notes but I can't see what versions infinite grimm is on
@rocky pulsar hey if you didnt mind could you tell me what resources you use?
well i use clip studio paint for stuff like that but that stuff is not free
You enable it in the weaver core menu
if you just want to change the cloak color, you dont really need spritepacker or godump tbh
just use something like firealpaca or something
ok cool thanks
Oh, I think someone made a program to quickly change the color of the cloak
oh for real?
that is so useful holy crap
it looks a bit pixely tho
You can probably manually touch it up a bit if you want
oh i can probably color it for you if you want
Thanks! Do I just need the inferno king grimm mod or do I need to also install something else for it to work
Inferno king grimm has absolute inferno king grimm built in. It's only dependency is weaver core, which makes that little menu button show up on the title screen. Then just enable hard mode in there
@rocky pulsar actually? that wouldnt take too much time?
nah
Oh i see the confusion, I was asking for absolute inferno GOD grimm, the one that is a combo of absolute inferno king grimm and nightmare god grimm @native ice
that would be so cool holy
Oh... I've got no clue then
what color do u want
uhh, maybe like a lilac pink probably
ok cool. this is wild
ok
