Click the button, it should bring up a file explorer, I believe the install path at base (For gog galaxy atleast), is C:/Program Files (x86)/GOG Galaxy/Games

It makes me browse for a folder like so, I'm not sure how to select like this
click the arrows
And then i pick the program file?
Pick the game file
OK, now what do I pick here
Damn it
I want to download the Lightbringer mod
I don't have it on steam, its like this
This is for gog galaxy
this is a shortcut
Wait, is GOG games the same or
Cuz I got it from there
They're the same thing, gog galaxy is just a different launcher.
I think
Gog is kinda foreign to me
This doesn't show up in GOG games, I'm gonna try Galaxy
@native ice Wait does this mean I have to install Hollow Knight again
Cuz I'm cool with it, just wanna know
It shouldn't I don't think
K
I'm not actually certain
That's fine
But my playtime is 22 hours, so 13 hours on the beyblade rejects, another 8 on the first Hornet fight, and the rest is fun game
Yeah, you have to install games from Galaxy separately from GOG directly.
The saves are the same.
You might be able to get the correct patch from GOG directly, but I'm unsure how off-hand. I use the Galaxy launcher for changing patches.
Thanks bro
@native ice and thank you too
@visual compass
Thx
Uh, I think something is wrong with my instructions
What?
Gimme a minute
Well actually I don't know how to get the decoration master mod
Oh, well that makes more sense.
I sent a link to it in that message
The docs link?
Yea
That's just the list of readmes and has no download
It's bookmarked to this
Also, the level data is supposed to go in the "DecorationMasterData" folder, that generates when you run the game with deco master once
Unzip it, open it, and put the DLL file inside it into the mods folder
Also, it's for 1.4.3.2 so make sure you're on that version and have the modding api for that version (downloaded when you run the 1.4.3.2 installers)
Ok so than I just copy paste all of the level data inside the impossible any% folder into that
Run the game once with the mod installed, then close it and refresh the mods folder. Then put all the level data into the "DecorationMasterData" folder
Can i download mods for 1.5 hk version or it is only for 1.4.3.2?...
Just interesting-
You can
But not all the mods are 1.5 compatible yet
Oh. And which ones are compatible, can you tell me?
?pins The very first line of the very first pinned message has a list of all the mods on 1.5

The current patch is 1.5 right
yes
yes
now?
Uhh
I'm not to familiar with scarab or it's problems and fixes yet. And even less so with mac
ok thx anyways
Run the game once with decoration master installed, it'll create a new folder within the mods folder called "DecorationMasterData", you need to put the level data in there instead
Is the link for decoration master in pins?
That was for someone else, who I figured out a fix for but forgot to mention earlier
oh ok

is the hollowknight multiplayer mod
tcp or udp? for port forwarding stuff
Speaking of Custom Knight, I am curious if the Custom Knight skins no longer show icons in the pause menu or if there's a reason they don't....
hello I'm new in moding comunity and I downloaded debug mod and I pressed hide menu the thing is I don't know how to show it again does anyone know how to?
There is a pinned message
They do not
F1
thanks
And can you bring the Benchwarp upwards at all in the menu?
What do you mean upwards?
If that set of menus moves up then it would overlap the menus above it, so no
Hm, strange layout.
How does the bench style work? Doesn't update immediately when you destroy/deploy.
You could just try clicking stuff and see for yourself.
You would've already found out by now.
What's modcommon
Pretty sure it's essentially just a base mod to run most other mods
I have found out, I think...
Hi, im trying to play Lightbringer mod, but when i try to play, i cant attack at all and so cant even get through the starting room cause i cant break the doors. could anyone help me if they know how?
You mean you can't swing at all? Like no animation/input?
when i press my attack button nothing happens
if i turn off lightbringer in the mods option in game i can attack normally
Maybe try an uninstall and reinstall through the mod installer real quick... while the game is closed.
I'm also new to modding but I figured I'd give it the old "IT' try...
its still not working 😦
What other mods are installed>
check you control mapping
my control mapping is normal
and it works without the mod on both my controller and keyboard
And it's enabled both in ModInstaller and in the game menu?
yup
Then sadly I am out of ideas. Perhaps a more experience modder or google can help :/
thanks for trying 😄 much appreciated
Hello, is customknight down for the latest patch of Hollow Knight?
You mean 1.5? Most mods are not on 1.5 yet, so you can downpatch to 1.4.3.2
I assume is the thing there...
Lots of assuming I'm doing here, mind you.
and I think ModInstaller is not able to find the game files, how may I reverse that?
Last check, you didn't disable any other mods, did you?
hey, I may need help, I recently have played with the ak 47 mod and uninstall it correctly but when I played, it still gave me like, the fast heal things, do you know why ?
and when I try "revert to unmodded" it tell me that it's unable to locate vanilla hollow knight
hey sorry to bother but i really need help, I have bought hollow knight on microsoft store and would really like to play the enemy randomizer but all the tutorials are if you bought hollow knight on steam, so can someone help me? Thanks
that version is not moddable
ok thanks
you could try this:#archived-modding-help message
but this hasn't been confirmed to work or be safe. so try at your own risk. Other side effects of this method are also not fully known
It's me again, I have a little problem. When I run the installer, I have this window open for a while and...Nothing more. I waited for about 10 minutes, you never know, my PC "thinks" for so long, but alas. I just don't know what I'm doing wrong anymore
I'm really sorry if my question seems stupid, but I don't know what to do-
windows 8.1
go to microsofts website and download the most recent .net framework for windows 8.1
and make sure your system is up to date
check for any system updates
kk, thanks. This is this possible due to some system updates?
read the pins
lets translate it ;-;

I want to know how to change my game version so I can mod (I'm on gog galaxy 2.0)
click configure
OK, then?
then select 1.4.3.2 either with the beta or with the selector
after you uncheck the "automatically update" box or similar
It shows this
well, you have to buy the game
Wut
There's no other way, what about modinstaller 2? Does that work on newer versions?
I am literally so broke I can't
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I'm just gonna download version 1.4.3.2 on its own
Without GOG
- was the attack working on keyboard?
- what operating system are you on?
- do you also have ModCommon enabled?
nah
where can i find and install randomizer 3?
on the modinstaller
See pins of #randomizer and of this channel.
You'll need to be on 1432, and probably want to use Mod Installer 2 to get the dependencies you need.
oh
ty
Looks like you're missing Satchel
Whats thats?
It's a mod that should have auto-installed when you got CK
Yeah, thats worked Thy ❤️
thank you idk who helped me last night but i got it working
I'm having menu issues with some mods, are there any general ones I need to add?
Specifically, custom knight doesn't let me switch mid game (I have to close the game for it to work) and the randomizer mod doesn't work at all
screenshot your main menu
I figured out what was wrong with the randomizer, but custom knight still doesn't work properly
If I select one it makes the knight invisible
Skins don't normally work with Hollow Point.
Custom Knight has a pre-load feature that gets around it, but it only works for whatever skin you last had on when you start the game.
okay, thanks!
Does anyone actually know why hollow point and ck conflict?
hollow point replaces skin for the ak i think
I need help, I installed mod installer 2 but I couldn't get it working so I tried to uninstall it but now when I try and open hollow knight I get this thing that pops up then the game shuts down and so does this little thing:

I think HP uses a slightly modified skin to aid the animations involving the gun?
The gun itself is not part of the skin, but HP does attempt to force a skin to stay the same on it.
The only reason CK works at all with it anymore, is because Dandy made CK remember what skin you had last, and it pre-loads that skin when you start the game.
my game keeps saying mono.csharp.dll wont load right, any idea?
- Use Steam's "Verify Integrity" to reset the game.
- Make sure you're on the correct patch for the mod installer you're using (Scarab is on current patch).
- Launch the installer (again, if you're on current patch, then launch Scarab).
- Toggle the "ModdingAPI" button off and then on again.
hey how do i mod the 1.2.2.1 Hollow Knight and not the 1.4.3.2
What the hell is modcommon
It's a mod
If you're using 1.5 (Scarab) it's no longer required I believe
I need modcommon for my custom knight
This is bookmarked to the 1.2.2.1 mods, you have to manually install them
thanks
wait how do i manually install them. i have the mod downloaded now what
Download the 1221 modding api, navigate to your game files (Steam library > right click HK > properties > local files > browse) then place the Assembly-CSharp files from the modding api into the Managed folder (\Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\ different if you're on mac) then place the dll files for the mods into a folder called Mods within the managed folder
ok thanks ill try that
How do I get the randomizer map tracker to work?
how do i get the mod installer for the latest version
hello!
im having difficulty with mods
everytime i try to launch hollow knight with mods it gives me this

There’s a mod installer called scarab (cooler ver of mod installer 2)

if I have the mutiplayer server mod installed how do I know what ip to tell other people to join?
probably this I'm guessing https://www.whatismyip.com/what-is-my-public-ip-address/
thanks
not sure if this would go here but i downloaded modloader 1 and then it was working, then i downloaded scarab, and im not sure if i changed versions too fast but now hk is in constant "update paused" mode. ive restarted steam, restarted my pc, checked file integrity, cleared my download cache and removed write protection on my disc. its still just constantly in "resume" so im not sure if it has something to do with how the mod launchers interact with steam or just steam's fault
My Custom Knight just stopped working
And when i try to use a custom knight, it blinks like if it was loaded, but nothing happens
And idk it this has something to do with the mods, but i cant assing spels/crystal dash to M5 and M4
This is a steam issue

Oh, thanks man
Can anbody help me with modding on mac. I keep trying it but it never works
The first pinned message has everything you need.
If you have a specific problem then you'll need to ask
it won't let me install the mod installer
Ok, im dumb
is there a difference with modinstaller 1 and 2 beside platforms?
I'm getting an error when trying to open HK, but I have Scarab and I'm on current patch
It also updated while on current patch for some reason
I know it was on 1.5 because I was using Swapper earlier
Someone told me to use fsmView to look at boss AI, and I'm not really sure where to start. I've got the application from pinned, but I don't know what to do next
My game is giving me an error when I try to install the mod installer. Any ideas?
Make sure you are running the same version as HK. Which mod installer did you do?
radiance.host
No I mean which version
The one in the pinned messages
Middle one, Modinstaller 1
Okay, HK got a recent update on 9/27, so you have to down patch it.
Right click>Properties>Beta>Change drop down to 1.4.3.2
Will that mess with my saves? I've backed them up already, but I want to be sure
I mean, probably not? I’m not sure
I mean you can use the 1.5 installer
It just doesn’t quite have all the mods on there yet.
I'll downgrade and use 1.4.3.2
I’m curious if it removes saves tho, lmk
Not the actual 'installation path'
The game folder for mod installer 2
wait what?
I mean
I have the game
Installed at the default path
But it is 1.5 version
I want to do mods
So I downloaded 1.4 version using depot downloader
at a different location
but the mod installer 2 made for 1.4 is detecting my 1.5 installation
how can I change the folder path it is working
That'd usually be resetting the installer
But I'm not sure how to on linux
Also, you can probably just use the steam beta method and turn your 1.5 version to 1.4 so it doesn't have to look elsewhere
I guess that works too
deleted ~/.config/ModInstaller/HKInstallerSettings.json
Then launch the mod installer again, choose the downpatch path
Hooray?
oh wait
All you had to do was reset the installer and say "No" when it asked about the game install
Not exactly
I have to change the default game folder name at first to prevent automatic choose at the first launch of the Mod Installer
It doesn't automatically choose, it asks you "Is this the right install?" and you just have to say no
Nope for me
I have two OSes on my drive, Linux and Windows, each have one copy of the game. Only when I renamed my default installation path name, reset the installer, then relaunch, it asks me if the installation path on the windows drive is correct (of course not). But that proves when the default steam installation path is present, the installer would choose the game folder without confirming with user on linux.
This is a long explanation, you can ignore it if you want 🙂
For simple understanding, it didn't ask me where is my installation
every time i try to run scarab with hollow knight this thing pops up and crashes my game
Verify the game integrity using steam, launch the game, and check the lower left corner and tell me what numbers it says
with or without scarab
That doesn't matter
kk
Do you own the game?
There's your problem
ok so i think im not the only one who is trying to use cheat engine to mod the game and im having problems with that. can someone help me? my problem is that when i do define new structure it always says "new structure"so i cant finde the database. im using hk 1.5.75. help?
quick question, how to go back from 1.4.3.2 to 1.5 on steam?
Can you not change the drop down back to something other than 1.4.3.2?
As in just pick "none"?
Seems so.
Yeah click none
oh okay, thank you
with the 1.4.3.2 beta I can't change the fullscreen options
if I move my mouse over it it doesn't highlight it, and I can't use the arrow keys to get to it
anyway I can change it at all?
Alt+enter
The only other way to change it would be to put your game back to vanilla, change it, then reinstall the Modding API
Not sure why it's not working though
I'll try that
I hope it works
Everytime I try to play the game this thing pops up. Can anyone help?
have you tried killing hollow knight in task manager?
if it's still running it might appear there
It doesnt appear there :/
It worked!! tysm!!!
no problem
The mod installer tells me to verify game files then run it again, and if I verify game files, it tells me the same message. It's still able to install the mod API successfully though every time I verify the files
Don't reopen after verifying integrity
I didn't
oh
wait
nvm thought you meant the game
don't re-open mod installer?
thanks that worked
how to install it is impossible any%?
Did you check the mod drive ? It’s probably there

- Does anything appear in the top left corner of your main menu?
- If you go into options, is there a "mods" option?
- Mods do now work on 1.5. The first pinned message has the latest mod installer
no it doesnt appear there although i have mods in the mods folder,
yes there is the mods option but when you go into it there are no mods in the option and you cant exit out of it so you have to close the game,

Hi there, I hate to be one of probably tons of people asking about troubleshooting with mods
But I've tried following the pins in regards to modding HK, with Scarab specifically
None of the key files seem to be there on Scarab, I'm looking to do an item or enemy randomizer. It's missing the core, api, common etc. stuff, mostly only having mods such as easymode and thing like that
I've downgraded the HK game myself to try and have Scarab prompt more options, but even after installing (but not enabling) all of the mods I'm not looking to use (since none seem to be based on changing anything but things I don't want, like easymode or cheaper charms) are the only things there
Sorry to be a bother, if anyone can help that'd be amazing
My game is version 1.4.3.2
Wait, I might have been able to fix it.
Turns out I didn't run ModInstaller like a complete idiot, thinking Scarab bypassed it and worked as ModInstaller. My bad.
Sorry for the wall of text. Much love anyway

Yes actually I did the same thing. First of all, you need to go to steam and downgrade your game to 1.4.3.2, since that's the only version that currently works for mods. Then, you can download the link in the pins for mac mods
here's how I learned what to do

How do I change file path for mod installer 2 windows
For multiplayer, do we need to have all of the same mods installed/enabled prior to connecting?
Only thing that should matter is the right mods to connect to eachother, other mods probaby won't work, or won't really change anything
Ah, so can you even do a randomizer in MP?
You can, you'd probably want to set the same seed tho
Makes sense, we'll give it a shot with only Random3 enabled, thanks!
And last questions for MP, is there any way to link the acquisition of items and such? So that when one person gets it, others do as well?
Head to #randomizer and check the pinned message
There is a mod in that server that does this
The latter no
If you're using the HKMP mod I believe you can use skins, but not with the version that's on the installer
Oh yeah you can use skins, it just shows the same skin as you on all other players
And it is in fact, Multiworld, yes?
Multi world splits items between worlds, so you might find your friend's claw
If you're asking how to use skins, you have to be using HKMP and there's a guide here #archived-modding-help message
Item sync is what you were asking for, where if either of you pick up an item both players get it.
I don't see Item sync in pinned messages
I think it might be in the speedrunning server, linked in the pins of #randomizer
Ah, also, that skins in MP notion link appears to be bugged
it's working fine for me?
k it works on my phone. I also am struggling to find Item Sync anywhere pinned in the Speedrunning server as well
It's just kinda chilling in randomizer announcements by the looks of it
Hello, I'm using Scarab and the mods aren't working for me I was wondering if I have to move the file somewhere or I'm just doing something wrong. I have Hollow Knight updated to its current version on Steam. (Please ping me if you know what I'm doing wrong)
The mods aren't working in what way?
They just aren't working I have them installed and everything and they just don't show up.
If you open the options menu, is there a mods tab?
In Hollow Knight or Scarab?
hollow knight
No there's no Mods tab
If you open scarab, on the bottom left maybe try toggling the "Disable/enable API" button
So is the API supposed to be disabled or enabled?
enabled, which means it'll say "Disable api"
It's enabled
Try verifying the game integrity and then disabling it and re-enabling it
How do I verify the game integrity?
Steam library > right click Hollow Knight > properties > local files > verify integrity of game files
Disable api, re enable api
Test if it's working
Also am I supposed to move the Scarab files somewhere?
Nope, in-fact moving em could cause problems. Just keep em somewhere like the desktop, and don't leave em in your downloads folder
It's working thank you for your help!
So with Item Sync and MultiWorldLib enabled for both of us, the host sees me moving as normal, but I don't see him moving at all... thoughts?
I'm really unfamiliar with all the multiplayer/randomizer stuff and it's addons (Multiworld, Itemsync, etc.), I know for the Multiplayer mods on mod installer sometimes both restarting and reconnecting will help fix something like that. Otherwise I suggest you maybe ask in #randomizer, the randomizer channels in the speedrunnig server, or there's a server for HKMP I believe
Can anyone send me a mod installer link?

is it working currently?

ty
to get a skin you need mod installer
Check the pinned messages for more information - https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/187137504393035776/823796522751623168/unknown.png
and if you haven't already swtich your hk to stable patch
u mean scarab
1.5 installer and custom knight is out
Yes
so which pin is custom knight?
its in mod installer
i linked it
just search for it the menu is in aphabetical order so it shouldn't be that hard
^^^^
or that
The mod is on the installer, but none of the skins are and there's no tutorial, so...
i remember seeing some skins tho like daughter of hallownest and child of light
Daughter of hallownest mod is an upgrade to hornet sentinel
Child of light gives you radiance attacks
right cus its a mod
no wonder i randomly started shooting balls of light in kingdoms edge
the question is can i request a skin?
wdym?
skin files
oh ok
Almost all the public skins are in the two google drives linked in the message I replied to. If you're asking if you can get someone to make you a skin, then you'd likely need to commission them, or if you're lucky someone may just be needing inspiration and you might have a good idea
yep
where do i commission them?
#art-discussion probably, #modding-discussion might also work
ok ill try both thank you
Wait
You're aware that commissioning requires you to pay them correct?
oh
Yea, if you want your own custom skin
guess i'll say no
we live in a society after all
ye of course
what skin are you looking at getting
u mean from the google drive
yeah
Did you have any in mind, or were you just hoping to find one you like?
the latter
like i gotta see them and not just folders to decide
if you want i can dm them
If you're looking in the TWP drive you can preview them
im looking in the google drive
maybe search up the skin
fire did a huge skin showcase with many of them in the file
oh ill do that
heres the quick link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fL7T6i_rV0&t=35s
i searched it on youtube
cool
My randomizer didn't work anymore
When I go in its says soul thing steel thing or pantheon thing
Not randomizer stuff
Hi I want to get into creating mods with hollow knight can anyone point me in the right direction
Since I did wonder about exactly the same mod:
Is there a way one could adopt the source code?
Also I ask because BonFire screws the strong slashes for some reason.
Anyone who would still be interested in BonFire so far?
I know that mod supports passive game play (geo farming etc) and is ridiculously OP, but ya... I like it 😛
I believe the project is on github
Ya, are there any links/keywords/places which would lead to them?
I researched for pretty a while now 😕
Gradow made it so you could search through and maybe find his GitHub
I definitely agree.
There seems to be just one sticky about modding-development 😅
TY a lot.
The GiHub (if it was the right one I looked up) is private.
I found one place to start off, I guess:
https://github.com/hk-modding/api
IDK how actual it is, but this gives a good glimpse of it 😎
Ya it is kinda a little toolkit, I guess.
which mod is the randomizer mod?
randomizer
thanks
I have a quick question, if I activate a mod like for example ||Absolute Inferno King Grimm||, will it appear in P5 instead of usual NKG, or does it only work on the statues?
not sure why you spoilered that
Me neither, but I'll leave it like that lmao
the readme should say where the boss can be fought
iirc, it's just dirtmouth and HoG
maybe not even HoG
If it is in godhome them the pantheon works in most cases
Ok, thanks
can some help me with the multiplayer mod

hi
bye
Can anyone help me mod HK to the latest version? I searched on yt but only 1.4
does anyone have whale knight skin. i cant find it anywhere
its in pins
click the link
Thanks
extract the zip and launch scarab.exe
hey guys. my modinstaller keeps picking the wrong spot for the hollow knight files and i cant change it
which installer. and wdym wrong file path. how do you know it's picking the wrong one
so it is the one from radiance.host(windows1.4.3.2) and it keeps picking the path where i installed it previously but now theres nothing
Clear all installer memory files/reset it #archived-modding-help message
read pins
now it is working thanks very much 🙂
Hi guys i have question. On 1.5.75 have randomizer mod?
How do I install randomizer map tracker?
do I just unzip it in mods like everything else?
I've got it running, everything seems to be working it's reading the tracker file correctly, but no map is being made even if I click refresh
Hi folks, wanting to get back into HK modding after a while. I reinstalled the Mod Installer, reinstalled the mods I want, and everything seems to work right up until I load in. I've got Randomizer 3.0 installed, plus SereCore and Benchwarp. All the settings work and everything, but when I load into the game the camera will be in the right area, i.e. King's Canyon or Greenpath, but not focused on my knight, and doesn't seem to move. Any ideas how to fix it?
You're missing a dependency
Any idea which one it might be? I saw it requires the modding API, is that separate from the Modinstaller?
I installed the API as well, but it's still giving the same bug, and I don't see any other dependencies on the page I'm on
What does the debugmod click menu depend on? any stuff from the clickable menu (besides binds and menus) don't seem to wook
Hi, new to modding. The mod installer is giving me this but I just reinstalled hollow knight
Steam?
btw to fix that
Not sure what the different installers are lmao
go Steam > Hollowknight > Propeties > BETA's > 1.4.8.2
Ahh ok thank you
Vasi
That did it, thanks~
wait my debug mod isnt working either and i have vasi installed
What isn't working
for me it works but the clickable menu just breaks-
whenever i click an option my game freezes
More Saves stops the to menu from working
Not sure about the game freeze
understandable have a niceday
what do you mean saves? like game files or...
Head to your save files and delete debugmod.globalsettings.json
More Saves is a mod.
@tranquil adder Randomizer 3 is items, and rooms if you want it. Enemy randomizer is enemies. (Most people who do enemy rando, do item rando at the same time). Randomizer 2 is old and don't get it.
hello, could someone help me? is there a way to play with mods but also get widescreen?
I did the hex edit to get my resolution but then mods dont work
and if i enable mods the resoultion goes back to 1920x1080
You can try this mod that SFG made:
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/880548951521103962/881188403041927209/WideCamera.dll
It's for 1.4
if they ported it to 1.5, it would most likely be on Scarab
so using the Moresaves mod i deleted a save file, and an entire page of files was deleted... is this a known bug?
did you delete slot 4
yes
just make a dummy save there
the mod checks for slot 4 being filled before letting you go to other pages
uh so how does one set up the multiplayer mod?
^
I tried to open hollow knight but i keep getting this:
anyone know how to fix it?
How do I do that?
I was just starting to mod , and have pretty much no idea what im doing.
I just installed random map mod and now there's a weird pin on my screen permanently, how do I get rid of this?
Use scarab instead of mod installer
Open your map and then close it again
thank you
Scarab is the new mod installer for the latest patch of the game.
I might have found the problem. my hollow knight version is 1.4.3.2 so it might just be that I have an older version.
does that work with any modinstaller mod?
In this case you will either want to update to the latest patch and use Scarab, or use Mod Installer 2
I updated and now it works again, thanks
is there anyway I can get rid of the grub locations once I've already talked to elderbug to get them? I've tried ctrl + g but it doesn't seem to be working
Do you have grubs randomised?
You're using the version of Randomapmod from the installer?
yes
It is taking you where available checks are
That's the map's job
If you go pick up the check that's at the grub it will disappear
yeah but the big pins are supposed to represent important stuff right?
If you go pick up the check that's at the grub it will disappear
I don't understand
It might be important?
It could be an ability
elderbug says big pins are important for progression and little pins aren't
Big pins are things you can get to, small ones are things you can't
Big pins are things you can get to, small ones are things you can't
So a large grub pin means "Check this grub location, it might be an item you need"
OK
thankks
wait but I can't get to all of the big ones
like there's one in crystal peak
and then if I check the helper log it doesn't mention anything in crystal peak
also where does the elevator pass spawn?
I can't find it mentioned anywhere in the randomizer guides
Elevator pass is randomised into the pool of things you can pick up
There is an extra check at the elevator near Storerooms Stag
oh thanks

I got scarab, but now it comes up with this every time I try and run it:
ok question- i got my server running. Me and my friend are in it and its working. I am in the settings, and all the damage values for spells and nail are set to 1 or 2. is this actually 1 damage or is it correct, and just the weapons damage stage?
Did you download the Modding API using scarab?
I was about to ask if there was anything specific i needed to get.
so what is it I need?
Yep
Might be worth verifying the integrity of your game files first
Might be worth verifying the integrity of your game files first
Right click your game install in Steam -> properties -> find verify integrity of game files

After that you can download the Modding API with scarab and it should work fine

I'm having a bit of a problem with Scarab
I'm on current patch but it keeps giving me this message when I try to open the game
Where do I get the api?
By the way, Im sorry for how slow I am at this, thanks for the help and patience.
on the bottom left of scarab

nvm
ig it wasnt loading

or wutevre latest thing is
is there any guts skin ?
Im trying to use scarab, but it doesnt apply the mods when I open the game.
how can I fix this?
Debug mod
Does it list the mods you have downloaded in the top left corner?
how do i use it?
oh nvm
my screen
x_x
how do use the skins mod?
- Download custom Knight
- Download a skin
- Follow the instructions in the pins to make sure you have everything correct
There is a message exclusively about custom Knight
Do I need to use different versions of mods if I want to use them on 1.5?
Scarab lists all the available mods
Read the message I just wrote
There is a pinned message with links to skins
thanks
wait, on the github or on the program itself
in scarab? yes. in game? no.
If you go into options (on your game main menu) is there a 'mods' option?
no
