modding api out of date
i clicked the orange box and the gap was checked, so i opened the game and still doesn't work :((
I'm opening the mod installer but nothing's happening
It just installed an auto updater
I opened the auto updater, also nothing
Tried running both of them as administrator, also nothing
I don't see them in task manager
where did you get the installer from
nexusmods
alright
Hey 'all, I am not sure where to ask this so I will just do ti here. Is there a readily accesible save file somewhere with legacy quick slash and (the possiblity of) carefree melody ?
after looking at stuff it seems like I can just edit the save file manually to make it to 2 notches so maybe I just do that
describe this more
do mods show up top left? is there a mods option in your options menu?
what mods do you have
are you on patch 1432
i am
i installed benchwapr, custom knight and debug mode since im trying to do a no hit
i dont have mods oiption, when i start the game
and if i click play
yeye i know
i dont
but when i click play the saves keep loading
if i unionstall the mods it turns back to normal

Does anyone have the Shrumeling's voice file?

The little one

Thanks
the only ones i could find ¯_(ツ)_/¯
The sound of the baby shrumeling is a finer version of the adult's
i have some problems with hollow knight since i downloaded mod installer 2
Is there a specific reason you used mod installer 2?
You should use scarab if you can
well i tried but hk still dont work
oooh sorry i thought you wrote scrap
but the problem is that hollow knight doesnt work
did you downpatch to 1432
i dont know, how do you see that?
Hi I tried to install mods on my cracked version of the game using Mod Installer 2 but my game started crashing, so i deleted all the mod files i had but the game still crashes. I wanted to know if there is a way to unninstall the Mod Installer so I can still play Vanilla at least.
Thanks in advance
sure. by buying the game
get rid of controller vibration and unofficial patch
Why unofficial Patch?
how i install the mod with the cuphead boss?
with the installer
which one is lol? also anything else i need?
indie crossover
thx
Okay if i buy the game can I still use my previous save file?
probably
Thanks 🙂
so modinstaller2 not work with latest hollowknight patch
?
cause im using only custom knight which should work
nvm
@icy arch use scarab (in the pins) MI 1 and 2 only support 1.4
yes i saw thx anyways
Alguien habla español?
no. this server is english only
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. (yes i sent this again nobody responded ok i need answers)
Which multiplayer mod are you using?
What other mods?
We're using the multiplayer mod in the modinstaller and the only mods we have is Mod Common, Custom knight and the multiplayer mod itself.
I want the mod that each amulet costs a single space? can anybody help me? please
I don't know of that mod but you can use infinite notches to give yourself infinite notches which is very similar
and which one is it?
check in the posts posted and i couldn't find it
check in the posts posted and i couldn't find it
infinite notches is on the modinstaller
how do I setup HollowTwitch
Look at the description of the mod maybe there
I did, it doesn't say how to set it up to work
the readme describes how to do it
Where are the sounds and music in the folders in Hollow knight?
the asset files
they are compressed into ASSETS files in the hollow_knight_Data folder
I need some help installing the randomizer mod
What about it
I installed it using the modinstaller
but it doesn't show up
I've used it before
but when I uninstalled it from steam and installed it again, it didn't show up
I'm using the 8.7.1 version of the mod installer
Quality of Life is working benchwarp and randomizer are not
are they enabled on the installer
yeah
they are on, randomizer does not show up
It is closed
Because I have already installed it before and I know about that page
and all those were turned on
I have already installed it before, and it worked. But now it isn't working.
screenshot your mods folder in your game files and your installer
How do i find that folder
Also, when I try to uninstall the randomizer mod and install it again, it gives me a message that says. "Unhandled exception has occured in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue"
i mean, that's pretty critical info that you should have disclosed at the start
here it is
I have three now
I'm just confused why this isn't working now, when it worked before
b/c youre installing the wrong one
or doing something else different from before
¯_(ツ)_/¯
and like I said, you need modcommon
How do I get modcommon
from the installer
under M
should auto install when you install rando 3
unless you disabled it
weird that it didn't
ok
I installed that
hopefully it works
It still isn't working
where you choose which save file you want to play in?
This is my title screen
yes

For mod installer how do i change the file location where the mods are beign added to?
depends
some have a button to change install path
otherwise, you can just reset them
uh does anyone now any great custom knight skins???
sus knight
I keep selecting the right data file but it doesn't want to use it
what are you selecting
where is that. and that's also wrong
?
?
it has all the right files
why do people crop their screenshots weird all the time
hollow_knight_data is the wrong selection
you need to select "hollow knight"
the application?
the folder that has the exe and the data folder
how could one go about making a mod for this game?
Hello, I need help again, look, I was playing normal one day the next day I started playing but what happened, the game was put in another language (English) and they did not load the games and I could not create a new one and it did not come out mods that I had installed, what do I do?
only those that say GlobalSettings or also those that say GlobalSettings.json.bak
The .bak ones don’t matter, just backups
Leave em or delete em
Will be regenerated in ~ 2 restarts of the game
a ok
It's either that or they have it under user and their user name in windows is their real first/last name. (because multiple people might use their PC as different users)
Nah, they have
version. Cropping out the path bar isn't the only indicator.
oh, what is the tell?
wait
🤐
let me guess
I'm not going to answer here, tbh
it's this right
oh ok, I'm sticking with my guess.
Hello, where can i find the debug mode for 1.2.2.1?
what does the "KILL ALL" command do in the debug mod
when i use it it does nothing
if it does anything
I need some help. I downloaded the installer, and have the Modding API zip in the main hollow knight folder. I'm trying to get Hollowpoint to work so I have Hollow Point and it's dependency in the "mods" sub-folder. I've never done this before so I don't know if I'm missing any steps.
I also got the right version of hollow knight according to pins.
The installer should take care of this all for you.
As long as you have the correct installer, it handles the Modding API, and will get Hollow Point and Mod Common. If you downloaded random .zips and put them in those folders, you'll break stuff.
._.
Hollow Point is on the 1432 installers, so the most "recommended" one at this time would be Mod Installer 2
I got the zips from their respective githubs. So I deleted those.
Opening modinstaller.exe flashes open some windows really fast and closed them. I never see a UI/
I'll try modinstaller 2.
Move the mod installer from your downloads folder to your Desktop as well. And preferably run it as Administrator.
Well this one's doing stuff. I'll let you know if it works.
Aye it worked. Thank you!
can somebody tell me why the kill all command in debug mod isnt working
or does nobody know
Someone help this man because i sure have no idea about the kill all command
Is this the right folder for the mod installer?
no, it should be the "Hollow Knight" one
Ok thanks!
you don't
You just admitted to pirating the game on the official server, you're not gonna get help with modding
haha shit, bye
when I try to open mod installerer for tthe firstt timee It says I need the stable version or most reeceent buut tthere are no updates for hollow knight

my steam wont connect to the internet now :/
my game fails to load at all. Getting the attached screenshot error. I used ModInstaller to try to get the randomizer. I'll send a picture of the mod folders right after this message cause I'm not sure how to send multiple pictures haha. I have hollow knight on steam, I'm managing various versions via having the .exe and the _data folder all in a separate folder and just grabbing and moving the appropiate version. It worked fine for downpatching and running 1.4.32. I have Windows 10 64bits.
If anybody is able to help I'd really appreciate it 
That's just steam servers being down
oh im dumb
Sounds like you messed something up moving files around to me
probably but I'm not sure what :sadge:
Probably just verify game integrity, relaunch the installer, and try again
Also, you can have multiple patches installed on steam
?guides
thanks I'll try that
does anyone know what the CharmingMod does? there isn't a description.
if i am getting hollow knight through the xbox app on my pc it’s just through xbox game pass for pc can i still mod the game
No.
how do i fix the lantern to summon the grimm troupe???
Go right and dream nail the dead bug
Or gog
gog?
Don't worry about it.
?
there's a few that have done it. it works, but you can't change patch, and your saves dont transfer
i just wanna do randomizer lmao
hello folks just a quic Q
I installed hollow point without thinking about it too much
I've read in the readme file that uninstalling the mod may not be safe for your savefile and that I should backup my saves
is there a chance my save will get nuked/permanently altered once I try to go back to vanilla? Thank you.
Installed via modinstaller
I'm installing gun mod
ive had enough of these bosses
it's time for them to feel the power of technology lmao yeet
So it turns out my Mac is a bit too old
F
will my save get nuked though? If anyone knows please let me know thank you
once i return to vanilla
I'm staying on 10.12.16, cause 32 bit
i didnt backup my save prior to installing
dunno what you mean by nuked
Which means I need to stay on 1.4.3.2
Damn
it just makes it so your soul isb roken, there's a fix but it's easier to just back up your save before hand
I found it on the QandA of the readme
I see. Given that I've installed it already, does these mean I have to go through the fix?
I haven't booted the game yet
and thank you @native ice !
"##### Q: Is this safe to Install/Uninstall on an existing save?
A: Should be, this mod loads all of its stuff on the fly when you load/make a new save and it doesn’t do anything that would permanently affect the game. THAT SAID, you should ALWAYS backup your save when using mods. This applies to any mod really, better safe than sorry."
this is what's written
you're changing game files, there's always a risk that something will go wrong
fudge. I wish I knew beforehand
that's why you should back up files just in case
it's too late for me now though?
Question
My Mac says I need to be on 10.13 or later to install the mod loader
I installed to read the "readme"
Thanks for the assurance @real jacinth Just kinda new to modding in general\
if you haven't even opened the game, the mod hasn't run yet
I'm on 32 bit
so can I then uninstall the mod then backup my save just in case?
Thank you! I'll do that right now.
So I can't run a later version of HK or the modloader
saves are in a completely different spot
Is there a version of the modloader that will work on 1.4.3.2 for MacOS 10.12.16?
installer 2
if that doesn't work, update your OS
if you can't do that, then....
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I'm not updating because there are other 32 bit things I wanna use
Is there a way I can avoid using the mod loader
All I want is the Skins mod
Where do I download mods

oh ok
im trying to play Hollow Knight after a good while of not playing and im trying to launch it with the "EnemyHPBar", "ModCommonn", and two multiplayer mods in the mod installer but every time i try to launch the game it just crashes before it even gets to the title screen. does the old mod installer not work anymore or something? those four mods are the only ones i have installed
are you using a controller
CharmingMod ?
I got the mod installer up and running and download enemy rando but when i opened hollowknight it didnt work
do you have modcmmon
im doing it through gamepass so i am just following the guiode
let me check
if its a mod in there
ya mod common is download
does any one know what it does? the installer doesnt say
no controller. just keyboard and mouse.
I had a question regarding the Linux mod installer, how do you open it and with what application
it shows as an unknown application.
you cant mod on gamepass
and none plugged in?
^
oh wtf, that's kinda poggers champion???!!
wait i got it
i was messing up which hollow knight app i was opening
Do you see anything before or after the crash?
wait
it says the mod is active and i have the mod api installed but the enemy rando isnmt working
Does anyone know how to install the mod installer on linux?
Did you click the "[Load Enemy randomizer]" button in the upper left of the title screen?
where is that
i dont see it

this is my title screen
Is there a way to install mods without modloader?
Sometimes it doesn't show up, try opening the options menu, and in the mods tab switch enemy rando off then back on, might needa restart your game too
how do you open the mod installer and with what application
i tried that already so ill try restarting
there we go
i saw load enemy randomizer button and my screen went crazy lmao
its showing a bunch of diffrent rooms
It shouldn't need one I don't think, are you sure you're running the right app
.
Go to your downloads
I see "Modinstaller2" and it is marked as an unknown file
Double click that
That mod literally isn't on the installer for me, so I've got no clue what you're looking at
So
it is unknown, i don't have an application for it
Can I install mods without the loader?
Why?
What OS are you on
Linux...
Well, I don't have a single idea

You may have used the "Manually install Mods" option, that adds a mod to your installer so you can easily disable/enable and uninstall it
its shows the game icon with a little warning symbol by Little Ghost's left horn, then a black screen as the game is actually loading, then it crashes
then nothing

oh so it has just been updated alright cool thank you
all i did was download the installer here I didnt do anything manually. I just wanted to know what that mod does. I been wondering for year lol
First, download and unzip the api and open the folders till you find a couple Assembly-CSharp dll files. Set that tab aside. Open your game files (steam library > right click HK > properties > local files > browse) then go \Hollow Knight\hollow_knight.app/Contents\Resources\Data\Managed\ and drag the earlier Assembly-CSharp files into the managed folder, replacing existing ones, also make sure to move the Mods folder into Managed, then just place the dll files for mods into that folder
It literally isn't on the installer by default, and it's nowhere noted as a mod that should be there by any of the things explaining what mods do. So the only option is that you used the "Manually Install Mods" button, I've got no clue what it does, maybe check where you got it from
Which folder do I drag mods into
\Data\Managed\Mods\, if there isn't a mods folder make one
I launched the game, and there wasn't anything about the mods I installed on the title
I'm gonna uninstall everything and try again tomorrow
You're not listening lol I got it from here. I have been using the installer from here and only here. lol, it's been there since I first DL'd it years ago. its VERY old, probably one of the first versions it came with. But I understand you don't know about it. Heck, I didn't know you could get mods from other places...
If you open the options menu is there a "Mods" tab?
If not then you mighta installed the api wrong
I think I did
I'm just checking in after a couple months -- Is Room Randomizer updated for 1.5 yet?
no
No mods tab
-
Make sure you put the right files in the right place. The files should just be
Assembly-CSharp.dll, might also be one that has "firstpass" at the end. And make sure you place it in the right managed folder, Mac actually has two. Be sure the pathing is exactly:\Hollow Knight\hollow_knight.app/Contents\Resources\Data\Managed\, and
not\Hollow Knight\hollow_knight.app/Contents\Managed\. -
Make sure you're in the correct game installation, going to your steam library > right clicking HK > properties > local files > browse will put you in the right place for sure.
There's only like 7 other mentions of it in this channel ever, I'm assuming it was maybe removed from the installer, but since you had it installed or something, it stuck around on the installer for you
makes sense because the most app will not remove user data unless the user agrees, etc.
hi im new to this server and I wanted to mod hollow knight except when I tried to download the hollow knight mod loader this happened. It's weird because I have updated hollow knight five minutes ago so what's going on?

Debug mod messed with my save,how do i return my save to normal?
i accedintley removed my UI,and then tried to bring it back,i pressed some keys to bring it back,all i know is that my nail dmg, changed,but i'm pretty sure some other stuff happend
Your UI being the in game HUD or the debug menu?
In game UI
The debug menu will show you your nail damage which you can reset by just reducing the damage through the debug commands.
Your delete key should bring your HUD back
F1 brings back the debug menu
aight,thanks.But can debug mod change anything other than nail dmg?
i dont care about geo, how can it change charms?
There's a button that gives you all charms
You can also individually give/change Grimmchild and Kingsoul/Void Heart
ok,all i use mods for is AB practice,i won't use debug mod,thanks

anyone know how to get carefree melody with debug mod? Whenever I set grimmchild to 5 it just acts like grimmchild 0 but with the carefree melody icon
Carefree is active, it's just glitched. To fix it, unequip it, set it to level 0, and save edit it to level 5. Or use 1.5 debug, it should have that fixed

thanks
alright ima tell alot of questions

Hi, im trying to install mods into my game, but when I select hollow_knight.exe this message pops out. idk if it is because of my mac being weird or something else
you should be selecting the app, not the exe
hey guys I was looking for HK mods ,randomizer etc
I also tried it that way
check the pins
they're on the installer
that's a file
oh

it should have auto detected your game when you launched it

nvm it loaded
but the error still pops out
Hi guys, I have a problem, I don't know why, but yesterday I was playing with debug mod perfectly, and today when I press F1 isn't appearing the menu... Im so sad... My version of the game is 1.4.3.2. I uninstalled the game, deleted all files of installation path, reinstalled the game, downloaded modinstaller's last version from pinned messages of discord and nothing change.... Anyone could help me?
Does debug show up in the list top left of title screen
Yes
Are you on a laptop
No
What else do you have installed
Right now nothing more
Not even modcommon?
modcommon appeared like install, buy I didnt installed it
No, F12 take screenshots, nothing more
go into options->mods in game. make sure debug is on
In that menu debug doesn't appear

do this, but delete any debug global settings files
with your game closed of course
then relaunch

Oh lmao oof
installed modinstaller.exe, but now my game wont run
Hello Guys. I have a question.
I experimented a bit with mods yesterday. Now my last save data no longer works. I can't ring bells (stag stations) and i cant hit my Rage Ghost. Does anyone have any idea what I could do? Got over 30 hours on this save Data.. dont want lose it.
what did you use yesterday
I Tried something. CostumKnight, Debug console, (this Mod that U have the modding / Cheat Menu) dont Know the right Name... and i Tried randomizer.... 🤷🏻♂️
well, my first guess is that you set your nail damage to zero
so you'll want to change that back
easiest way to check would be to install debug mod and look at the values in the huge menu on the left
Bro i have No Idea how to do that 🤪 i deinstalled everything. When the Mod ai is active, in the left uper Corner U can See the modding ai Nr... But i deinstalled everything... So the Mod Numbers in the Corner are not Here. (Sorry for my Bad eng)
OK thx Mate. I will try..
fixed it btw :)
turns out i was using the wrong version but somehow forced the installer to plug in mods into the game anyway, causing it to fatal on launch
do you see a loading bar? are you on the proper installer/game patch combo? do you have modcommon?
No. If i start the Game i See a little hollowknight Window With a Red Sign or something... And then the Window is closed...
so no, you're not on the right installer/patch combo
OK now i have the Mod console in the Game... But i have No Idea what i have to do.. so U have 1min . Die me in the Chat Room? I go live and U Tell me what i have to do?
no
Can i Reset the setting in the console?
what console
did you install debug mod
or modconsole
b/c those are different
and you for sure don't want modconsole
i need help with the hollow point mod
when i try to do spell it just keep changing fire direction
Did you read the readme
yea i did but it doesnt work
Sure it does
Do you have built up adrenaline
Did you collect a spell from the world yet
i have the upgraded version of it
how can i put mods in hollow knight in 1.5 ?
yet i cant still do spell
Upgraded version of what
you cant you have to downgrade
Use scarab
spell
okay
Scarab is pinned
can i put the manhunt mod on scarab ?
What
a multiplayer mod
Which one
wait really?
Yes
no wonder it doesnt work
oh my bad then
none of the cheats with debug mod work, I can't become invincible or give myself charms, a few cheats work like giving me items and geo but a lot of them don't work
MoreSaves messes with the UI.
You can use the key-binds to use other options, or you can remove MoreSaves.

If a save file has mods on it do I need to revert it back to vanilla so that it saves on steam cloud
don't think so
Well I think I fucked up my save file idk yet until I go back to my computer
Cause I forgot that my computer is in beta but my laptop is in the latest version
that's probably more why rather than just the mods
Do you think my save is fucked or is the modded file saved locally
Saves
Windows File Paths: (Assumes Default Steam Install Path, Adjust accordingly for DRM Free or Non-Standard Steam Path)
Game Files: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\``` ** ** Mac File Paths: ```Save Files: ~/Library/Application Support/unity.Team Cherry.Hollow Knight/ Game Files: ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/hollow_knight.app/``` ** ** Linux File Paths: ```Save Files: ~/.config/unity3d/Team Cherry/Hollow Knight/ Game Files: ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/```
Yeah it's not so much mods I'm wondering if opening a save in an outdated version fucks up that save for every device
If you haven't syncd them yet, then no? But also it depends on the versions.
1432 and 1.5 have compatible save versions
We'll see when I get back 
the save wouldn't be "fucked"
steam may just turn off cloud uploading for any beta versions
to prevent any issues that may happen in the vast majority of game's cases
your saves are still there locally on your machine

How come when I downloaded Hamchi to host a server it wont work
When I open it up it says "can't connect to server"

for some reason I am able to download mods into hollow knight with no problem but once I open hollow knight they don't work and only shows custom knight and QoL but those don't even work either. game version is 1.4.3.2
If those show, then it sounds like mods are working.
Can you be more specific as to why you're saying that they aren't working?
so though those two are showing up when I load into my saves they just don't work. for example with custom night I go into the pause menu and the skin menu isn't there.
- can you post a screenshot of your pause menu?
- did you actually install any skins?
Close Hollow Knight
Try running this: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/462200562620825600/889031834938265610/Global_Settings_Clear.bat
Then try opening HK again and see if the menu is there

Im trying to use the fyremoth skin in hollow knight with scarab mod installer
But when i apply it it doesnt do anything
Can someone help me
Y'all
Where can I install mods without the launcher?
And how?
<@&328354344313421825> Sorry to bother, but on Mac, how do I install the API and mods for 1.4.3.2 without the launcher?
Hey. how do I install the API again?
.
All I can find if I browse local files on Steam is Hollow Knight itself, and a folder called Hollow Knight Data with nothing in it
Do you see the hollow_knight.app?
No
...
What?
Right click that, and select "Show package contents"
oh woops
There's a bunch of .dll files
The assemblycsharp.dll?
I don't remember
It's not showing any mods
I launched HK
Or anything about the API
the modding api isn't showing up in the top left corner?
Did you make sure you followed the path I said earlier
Yes
\Hollow Knight\hollow_knight.app/Contents\Resources\Data\Managed\?
Hmm
Should I relaunch Steam?
Relaunch the game maybe
maybe move the .xml as well
Uh, try deleting all 3 assembly csharp files, verifying the game integrity, and then redownloading it. Maybe try this api instead? https://github.com/HollowKnight-Modding/HollowKnight.Modding/releases/download/1.4.3.2-60/Unix.zip
can someone send me the link to download the other mod installer, the one for 1.4....im trying to install the randomizer

do i need to downpatch for the scarab mod launcher?
ok so i downloaded mantis gods on it, tried fighting SoB in godhome but it was normal, tried fighting Mantis Lords and it was also normal
how do i fight them?
are you in a godseeker save?
do i need to enable godseeker mode for them?
i was in my main 112% file
does the mod show up in the top left corner?
yes
I'm not sure then
I've been trying to save edit a 1.4.3.2 file to get carefree melody, but it is glitching and showing as grimmchild 0 but still with the carefree effects. I have tried the fix where you unequip it, set it to level 0 and then save edit it to level 5, but it's still broken
hey guys just wanted to know if there was a tutorial video or smth to use scarab ?
Download it
Extract it
Move it to your desktop
Open it
Click what you need
When set to L5 it will show Grimmchild 0 but act like Carefree
It's just a visual bug
Are mods compatible with 1.5?

Can mods go on switch
No
No
You can check the pins for all the information you need
They can only go on PC
Can't you like plug in the PS4 to a PC or somthin
Or only on PC but U can connect controller
Nobody has ever thought of that
Amazing how you just solved it in like two minutes of thinking
I have done it in a pacman game
With my friend
I just thought of that time lol
Like 20 mins of 1% battery on my phone now
Didn't fire do that whenever he has mods he has a Xbox controller thing
That shows what he presses
I know
Now I know*
Also to do mods I have to buy go again on steam but it will be worth it
i started a randomizer but not theres a thing that shows my recent items on the top right, is there a way to turn that off but keep playing my randomizer?
hello, I am having problems on finding how to install the debug mod, can someone help me please? :c
Use an installer. Check the pins for them 
Steam or gog works, Microsoft store and gamepass dont
hey guys, new here i have a question, i downloaded the mod installer as i want to try some randomizers but its telling me it cant open and i need to update the game? what do i do?
Use scarab from the pins if you want to mod ver 1.5 (rando hasn’t updated yet) otherwise use the instructions in the pins for that problem (revert game to ver 1.4.3.2)

Did you install the bingoui mod? I think that might do that
You disable it in your RandomizerGlobalSettings file, which is in the your saves folder.
After dialing it, it may not go away- if it doesn't you just have to start another new file, and then go back to your current one (warning: starting another file overwrites some of your logs, if you are using them.)
ok so looking at the pins i think i found my problem/solution before asking but just to make sure:
i am using scarab on 1.5 so i cant run the randomizer3 or serecore mods and thats why they are not listed. so i need to downgrade to 1.4.3.2 to download those mods?
Why isnt my custom knight working. Its showing the text in the left corner but when I click on them my character just blinks white
pls help me
You either
- are missing ModCommon
- don't have sounds installed correctly (they must match how "default" is exactly
Check the pins for the Custom Knight pin for more info 
is there a way to change Modinstaller 2's hollow knight directory? i have both 1.5 and 1.4 installed in 2 different folders and its wanting to install mods in the wrong version (1.5)
hello a question when the mod is installed the game is put in full screen there is no a way to put it in windowed mode?
how do i download the coop mod?
I think Mod Installer 2 uses the same directory as Scarab.
You can use Mod Installer 1, it just manually instal most mods though.
You can try running this, which will reset mod installer 2s path, and check as well:
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/462200562620825600/842427721065955348/ModInstaller_Reset.bat
Alt + Enter
ok
There's not exactly a "co-op" mod.
You can use HKMP on Scarab (1.5) which is a multiplayer mod. Progress isn't synchronized though- you both will have to do everything, but you can help eachother do it.
Can someone help me with skins
Im trying to use the fyremoth skin in hollow knight with scarab mod installer
And when i apply it doesnt do amything
any*
Hollow knight 1.5 btw
- try the Fix my Skins button, then switch to "default" (and click Apply) and then back to Fyremoth
If that doesn't work, then post screenshot of where you installed the skin
As in, post a screenshot of the directory that you installed it into, including file path, and skin images visible
ah yes
I went to
Managed > Mods > Custom Knight > Skins
the skin appears in my menu but when i apply nothing changes
And did you try this yet?
Idk if it ever worked
You can just destroy all the enemies using the enemies menu on the right
Can someone help me its my first time modding hollow knight and i'm havving trouble i did install the mod installer but when i start hk It crashes immediatly
It crashed for me as well when I first tried. Make sure you're on the current version of hollow knight and you are using the scarab launcher. To find the scarab launcher check the pinned post.
Also back up your hollow knight files on steam.
ok thank you
np
I tried and it didn't work.
is there a mod that allows you to just autokill every boss without having to go to them or that allows you to do godhome without all bosses unlocked
im using a older version of debug
so it only has some dream bosses that i can autokill
No, there's the godseeker gamemode, or you can download a save file with it already done
i dont think i can do that with hollow knight on gamepass
so time to go kill every boss
(I'm a completely different person but I have the same issue)
you can atleast boost your nail damage and use benchwarp
ye
Screenshot inside the skin folder and include the file pathing
that is the inside of the skin folder
Include the images
