This is a bug that happens sometimes. Sometimes it can fix itself, sometimes you need to restart your computer.
Check the pinned messages for mod installer 2 and how to downpatch.
it works!
sorry if i was rude or impatient i had a bad night so im a bit grumpy and i was sad cuz i couldnt play hk
Oh ok
So now somehow I have Nymm while Grimm is still Sleeping in the Tent
So set in town to false and kill or banish Grimm
Or set the flag for the event to be true
I’ve been trying to banish Grimm multiple times
But whatever I edit it just has Grimm already defeated the first time and not Banish-Able for some reason
Everything is in the file, you'll need to do some digging to figure out exactly what you need for your circumstance.
anyone mind telling me how to install the mod launcher or link me to a message that tells me how

First pinned message
If you don’t know what version of hollow knight you’re on you can check in game in the lower left portion of the title screen
still dont know what to do with that zip file
window
Right click it and click extract
then
Then open scarab
Go into the folder it created from extracting, and open it
thats it just open it ?
Yeah
@wheat orchid can i use unmodded file
on modded file
without it fucking it
up
my unmodded file
A save file?
for example
i get a save file from the unmodded version
can i use that one for modded
or do i need to remake one
Yeah, can’t tell you if it will get messed up by mods though, that depends on how mods were programmed and what mods you use
any idea of whats weavercore mod ?
wanted to do inferno king grim but it appeared for some reason
If you want to back up your save files, press windows key + r, paste in the save files path, then copy user#.dat to another location (the # is the number of the save slot, do it for each one you want to back up)
It’s a library/dependency mod, other mods can use features in it to make programming easier but they will require it as a result
aigh
I tried unmodding my hollow knight and now i get this error if i try to start it. this window pops up for about 1sec and closes again. does someone know why?
What did you click to unmod it
And what mod installer did you use to mod it
mod manager by gradow
i uninstalled all the mods and then clicked revert to unmodded
You tried modding version 1.5 with a 1.4.3.2 installer?
oh
Did it show any text when doing this
well i tried unmodding it with that
where can i find the emplacement of the save files
no it didnt show anything
Did you test it when it was modded
?saves

it also just resets when i open the installer again
Look closely, it’s the save files path, not game files
all the mods were already disabled but it worked before i opened the installer
So it wasn’t modded in the first place
yes
It installed the outdated ModdingApi
And it failed to unmod it
Where did you purchase the game
steam
Yes
You will also need to install the modding API
(It says it’s enabled)?
(On scarab it isn’t shown there)
Ah yeah, forgot about that
@empty canyon continuing with my instructions, next click local files, click verify integrity, wait for steam to do stuff (I don’t care about what it tells you, files WILL fail to verify and that’s what we want because it will redownload them)
ok i reverted back to 1.4something and then uninstalled all the mods and then went back to 1.5 and now its fixed
do you maybe know why i start steel soul mode with only 4 hearts? is that something the mods could have broken?
ok it was the mods, it was an exisiting one, i deleted it and created a new one and now i have 5hp
thank you both for your help
been trying to play mantis god mod but i cant get it work any idea why ?
having the same problem. I have installed and enabled it but when i play the sisters of battle fight, it's just the normal sisters fight
try mantis lords
i dont know if it actually buffs
sister of battle
What's the mod called that let's you be able to see checks on the map for randomizer?
checked, it's the normal mantis lords fight
f
i used an existing 112% file, both sisters and mantis lords fights are normal. so i created a new save in godseeker mode while the mod was enabled, still both normal fights. Am i doing something wrong?
the mod does not work in a godseeker save
screenshot your main menu
randomapmod
do you have vasi enabled
more info: I am on windows 10, Hollow knight version 1.5
then it should work on the sisters of battle statue in HoG on a normal save
you have to hit the lever on the statue to change it
my 112% file is a normal save. I'll try it out on another one as well though
shit i haven't unlocked sisters of battle in any other file....this will take some time
do you need a quill in order to be able to see the checks?
no
you talk to elderbug like 5 times to get the maps. or press ctrl+m to toggle the maps
there's some other keybinds you can use too
oh wait the mod failed to load
is there any way to restrict all the pins to show only if you have that certain area's map unlocked?
wdym
the purpose of the mod is to show you what's currently in-logic for you to get
so dunno what you mean by unlocking a certain map
like for example if when you get the greenpath map unlocked, all the pins there would appear
idk how to say it
cuz rn you can already see all the pins of hallownest
and i want it to be limited only to the areas i already unlocked
I dont understand
like you want to get the maps from their vanilla locations?
pretty sure you can just get them that way
otherwise I don't get what you mean by unlocked an area
it's randomizer
you're meant to go all over
and not play linearly
no im not randomizing the map itself
I know
but you may not be intended to go to greenpath for quite a long time
it's not like you're going to progress to the intended area order like you would in base game
no it's not about unlocking the area earlier or something
im talking about cornifer's maps
no
b/c that's the only other option
so then I have no idea what you're asking
if you enter an area you just get the map?
im talking about all the pins from a certain area's map showing up once you get it
how are you getting it
the pins do nothing except help newer players
to know what they can get
making that harder to get would just be an unnecessary barrier to entry
randomizer makes you think laterally about what items you can get in ways you never would have expected from the base game. mapmod is meant to dynamically show newer players what items are in logic for them based on their current items
so randomizing where the helping pins/maps are at would be counterproductive to the purpose of the mod
well all my pins are set on the ? setting
so i legit don't know what they all are
the mod doesn't show you what you'll be given
the labels are what the vanilla check is
an item, or a geo spot, etc
ah i see
the readme for it
describes what everything is
seems like i've been using the older version the whole time
oh dang this version has the thing i've been looking for
ty for your help
and being able to survive my stupidity
Tried it out with a different normal save. It's the normal sisters fight
I assume mods are missing cause they aren't ported to the newest patch yet, bonfire mod for example?
First save was in slot 2, the other one I tried was in slot 4
haven't disabled moresaves, i'll try that....actually let's try it with all unnecessary mods disabled
Yes
didn't work. btw even though Vasi is enabled in the mod installer, it doesn't show up in the main menu active mods list. Is that right?
yes
so you tried it with only vasi and mantis gods?
or was something else enabled still
Modding API, MantisGods and Satchel
is there anything of note in the options menu under mods
maybe i should try a different boss mod, any recommendations?
well the only others on 1.5 are corrupted kin and pale prince
okay so my game has started lagging a while ago and i think it's because of a mod
but i have a ton of mods and i can't tell what that is
is there any mod that causes lag ?
screenshot your main menu and your video options
do i have to quit to the main menu?
im in the middle of p5 rn and ive gone pretty far
thanks!
Hello, I have a Mac and downloaded the correct mod installer. I had trouble opening it at first but then bypassed the issue by opening the MacOS folder and clicking on the Unix Executable File labeled Modinstaller. It then opened the app no problem. From there the path was established under the resources folder in hollow knight’s local files. I then proceeded to install the infinite charms mod using the app and tried opening hollow knight through steam to see if it worked. I didn’t get very far however as a prompt comes up shortly after clicking play that says “hollow knight quit unexpectedly” and then feeds me a crash report I have no idea how to read or interpret. I then decided to delete the mod installer and all of the files within hollow knight’s local files that might have been created or somehow changed by the app. This amounted to only being the infinite charms mod file and the mod folder itself. After that I tried opening hollow knight again and again and the same crash report continues to appear. I can assure you hollow knight was working perfectly fine before I started messing about with mods and I am quite worried I will lose my saves and/or not be able to play hollow knight on my Mac again unless I reinstall. I will gladly provide more info and pictures if someone is willing to help. Thanks!
The crash report is many pages long and I'm not sure where the subject of interest is within it.

post on using 1.5 (vanilla) or changing back to 1.4.3.2: https://steamcommunity.com/app/367520/discussions/0/3109153465655517517/
32-bit users should use the 1.4.3.2 version You can install our last 32-bit compatible version by right-clicking Hollow Knight in your Steam library, click Properties, Betas, and select 1.4.3.2. OS Error 4294956470 Running the follow command in a Terminal should fix this (assumes the default Steam library location): /System/Library/Frameworks/Co...
Ok, that fixed the crashing problem but the mod I installed doesn't show up anywhere in game or work.
you might have to use scarab again after the fix
Oh I should use scarab instead of modinstaller?
do some mods not work together?
other installers will put 1432 patch mods in the game. you have to match the game patch with the installer you use
yes
;-; now i know why
mods that affect similar game systems tend to conflict
e.g.: if you have 3 mods that all change charms
makes sense cheers
there go all my hopes of creating havoc with inf charm and hollow point
Infinite notches will work with charm changes.
Welp, I installed scarab and the same mod and hollow knight crashed again during startup
are the 2 pinned custom knight skin drives the only ones or are there more ?
What's your game patch number
1.4.3.2 and I'm assuming scarab is only compatible with the 1.5 patch
That's what I used before and the mod didn't show up
did you install modding api
hi mods could you help me, i'm wondering how the devs will import the sprites into the unity(used engine) perfectly?
what
like this?
So you want to replace in game sprites? Or do you want the in game sprites? Or want to know how to insert sprites into the unity engine to develop a game?
Which one is your question?
want to know how to insert sprites into the unity engine to develop a game because when I import even if it's the game's sprites they get "pixelated"
Google "Unity tutorial"
I've seen several but it doesn't work
I thought that since you are mods I can at least be friends with the devs sorry
I think you've misunderstood both what this channel is for (modding, not moderation) and also the relationship you can have with the developers of a video game.
you're trying to ask team cherry directly for unity help?
yeah, that's not happening
yes I'm used to games where devs are more present
so go ask them
hahaha
imagine if TC stopped to address every question or help request they got
silksong would never get finished
So no net change
I agree
bye
I am having some trouble with QoL mod, it keeps failing to load, but yesterday it worked just fine
do you have vasi
that was it, sorry I'm a bit new to this. Thanks a bunch!
no sure if this is the right place to ask... but is there a guide/video for the current way to down patch?
I was trying to install the multiplayer mod to play with a friend, but when I click on "start server" it doesn't do anything
and when I click on "connect" the button disappears.
anyone can help me pls?
Yes
me and my friend are trying to play together through multiplayer but it doesn't seem to be working even though we have both the client and server mod installed
this message keeps showing up when i try to install modinstaller, i have the game installed and its working just fine

Have you opened the save file with QoL mod active?
does enemyHPbar work with latest patch scarab
pretty sure it doesnt, does bench warp?
check scarab

thx!!
Is infinite grimm automatically on when I download it?
Or do I have to do smthn
Bc I didn't work
maybe ur modding api is gone for some reason
Nope
other mods work?
yes
K
thats the only thing it works on
Did you check the readme
It doesn't work in godhome, you have to do it in dirtmouth
The pins of #modding-discussion have a save file for it
Uh, what
?
- You shouldn't have to use debug to get there
- Did you banish on that save?
No
I used it to get there quick
Which may be the issue
I can fight NKg
But not infinite grimm
It looks like you have to beat nkg and then refight him, and wdym you used debug to get there quick, that's not a debug feature afaik
I think they mean they used noclip and invincibility to go around hallownest to do stuff for the quest
No clip
U can get through the back wall
Uh, probably don't do that...
So, the mod shows up in the top left corner, you're in dirtmouth, you've beaten NKG on this save, and if you go back to the tent and try to refight nkg it doesn't let you or it's not infinite grimm or what?
It's not infinite
what do i do if the modinstaller wont open
u have any other computers?
i have one at my dads house that works fine but i only have 1 at my moms house
every other week
oh nice
ye
well you might only be able to play there
k
oh nice
use randomizer and do all cursed settings
that sounds fun
Thats more torture than breezy any radiance
ill try that too
do it, its really fun
yes i will
ok
...
I don't wanna be rude, but it doesn't seem like you know what you're talking about when you answer questions here
alright what the heck why did the screen say any radiance but it was actually absolute radiance
Do you have ModCommon?
idk lemme check

my mod installer won't install
More details please
when i try to download it gives an error
- Make sure the mod installer isn't in a zipped folder
- Move the Mod Installer to your desktop and run it as administrator
- If that doesn't help, navigate to your mods folder and send a screenshot
ok
Oh, and make sure your game is closed while attempting to install mods
Dit ziet eruit alsof een ander programma dat bestand al gebruikt. Probeer inderdaad wat RiverBot zegt
i already got it fixed
can anyone help me , when i open hk , unity and hk open , and after 3 seconds it all shuts down\
😦 i read all of those , tried most of them , nothing worked 😦
OH
nvm
it worked
thank you pinn channel
What did you try?
reinstalling the mod installer
Are you talking about Scarab?
also this
Ill try
yea , i diseabled the api , uninstalled all modes, you know
and this
pretty much uninstalled all and then verifyd the integrity
Well, that doesn't exactly make sense but sure
Oh wait, if you removed mods/verified it makes sense
didnt work veryfing
for some reason it does not solve it , i deleted all and then verifyed
But the actual fix is to download Scarab or check the third pinned message to downpatch (Scarab might have issues because the public beta patch literally ujst went live)
yea i had that problem yesterday
but didnt show any compatibility message
anyway thanks
If you need to change it,r eset your installer #archived-modding-help message
tysm
the mod installer isn't working after the update
need beetle boi
i updated the installer too and it doesn't work
i mean scarab
what breaks?
Getting this error message for CompassAlwaysOn. What do?
Mod logs also didn't reveal any useful information for a layman such as myself
Alright, I installed an older version of it and that seems to be working.
the mod installer crashes when I try to install a mod
this is after following all the fixes sent in this channel
this mod installer really isn't very stable
hollow knight crashes when i try to open it with mods
it crashes even when i open it with no mods
**There was an update to Hollow Knight last night. If you are using Scarab you will need to update your Modding API as out will be out of date. **
Head to: %AppData%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight
Delete everything named `SOMETHING.GlobalSettings.json.
Head to the out of date tab in Scarab.
Hmm.
I've tried reinstalling scarab and reinstalling hollow knight
neither of them work
now scarab doesnt crash, and I can see the mods in the top left, but they dont show up in the mods list ingame
First time trying to use mods, installed scarab but I have no clue where to put the downloaded files
how do i up date it
I would try resetting the mod installer. The method for that is in the pinned messages. I'll update my message.
i tried that as well
didn't work
resetting it just made it crash
also my game is acting up now, gathering swarm is completely broken and doesnt work
When you download Scarab, you just unzip the folder, then move it anywhere that isn't the downloads folder. Inside that folder is scarab. Open it and click what you need.
thanks i will try that
scratch that, all geo is uncollectable now, even without gathering swarm
If resetting the installer doesn't work try verifying integrity of game files via steam then opening scarab again.
Very frustrating.
Would be nice if TC had any communication with the modding community.
yeah
when i close modinstaller and try to open hollow knight ti still crashes
at this point i just want to get rid of scarab altogether
its just nice to be able to gain money
such a wacky concept
hollow knight opens but as soon as it opens it just close
ok so i got it working by downloading the batch file listed in the pinned comment
this one i think
Which message is that from?
ok thanks
This one?
I can't find the randomizer in scarab?
It is not updated to 1.5
You'll need to downpatch your game and use mod installer 2
Instructions are in the third pinned message.
#archived-modding-help message
It's from this one
i am on mac would that have any thin to do with that
i mean hollow knight crashing
got to go
Which patch are you on? 1.5 is fine for me, with or without mods, but I can't for the life of me get 1432 to work (even with all the workarounds TC and other people suggested)
u need satchel
yeah okay so i got a couple new skins for the knight but like only 1 of them works, how do i fix them?
Check the pinned messages. You likely have the wrong file structure
Managed to fix all of them except 1 which is Grimm_Knight by 复印纸
im not sure how im supposed to organize this
Can you redo that screenshot so we can see the address bar?
If you say so
Do the scarab mods still work with the patch? Wanna make sure before I download it
Why do this? 
I open and crash instantly
F
so the button i need to press to pull up the debug is not combatable with my laptop as it is the laptops help button and im wondering if there is a way for me to change it
fn+f1
oh didnt know i had that button thanks my guy
are the pinned customknight skins drives the only ones public ?
yes
Updated this message, it should now be correct.
I'm going to update the .bat file to just delete all global settings, probably tonight
So hopefully that helps some

3rd pin
oh ok
so, does CompassAlwaysOn conflict with AdditionalMaps?
im gonna ask how to use the enemy hp bars now. (like it worked before but its just not doing anything now)
on which patch
don't think so
It doesn't work with AdditionalMaps installed for me on current patch, both mods updated
the one which the modinstaller works. 1.4
is everything showing up on title screen? did you update your api?
screenshot your title screen
no (beacuse there are none)
there are
(it was there for a month ago)
where though?
yes and yes
yeah didn't touch that
uh so what am i missing exactly?
i haven't touched the settings, but i updated debugmod
(it worked before with it)
the version of debug you have is not for your patch
how 2 downgrade then (cuz modinstaller keeps installing this version)
which installer are you using
(also the mod itself works)
- (1 just crashes)
and according to the newest modinstaller - I have installed everything. So what can I do?
also disabling and uninstalling debugmod dosen't fix the issue
no healthbar appears
not even a bugreport?
nope
that's dumb
complain to team cherry for sending out a new patch then
so uh what is the issue then
new game patch
Yo are not listening =(
the mod should have been working before last night. so dunno what was going on there
if it works without additional maps installed, then just do that I guess
¯_(ツ)_/¯
compassalwayson never worked for me with AdditionalMaps, even on previous patches
mickely, so whats my issue in the end?
no idea
title screen says its working
and if you didn't change anything, or aren't telling me, then it should still be working
ill try a full reinstall of the mod
well uh that fixed it
the settings file must have been broken/corrupted i suppose. thanks for trying to help me though
sorry to bother you, but it seems compass still doesn't work with additional maps, even on a current patch with newest modloader (scarab)
i know it may be a dumb question but how do i shoot in hollow point mod?
the attack button
did you read the readme
If it’s on 1.5 it might be bugged in more ways, but on both 1.5 and 1.4 there’s this bug: did you load a save file or create a save file
If you created one, try restarting the game and loading the file, it breaks when creating a file so you need to create one, exit, then load it
everything works like vanilla expect i have the gun on
Could you answer the above question?
oh yeah i created a new one
So do the instructions and see if it works
does the focus button swap to the gun
nope
what patch are you on
1.4.3.2
can you screenshot your title screen
you need modcommon
in your game files
i am just asking if there is some web with skins to chose from
is there a bingo mod on the modinstaller?
check the pins
wdym
what are you looking for
ohh
thanks
thanks
I read the Random Pantheons mod ReadMe, but I have some doubts. Is the Random Pantheons Mod's effect reversible? If yes, how can I revert it?
Wdym is it reversible
Isn't the effect just shuffling boss order
Once you disable the mod it just doesn't shuffle
no
thanks
uhh lols where did mods menu go
Uhhh why does your options look like that is the question
howwowknyight of couwse
A simple question just for confirmation: To disable Randomizer 3 is it only necessary to disable the mod in the installer? Now that I've typed it in, this seems like a pretty dumb question.
So is it recommended to get rid of save before removing Randomizer?
Ok. Thanks for the help.
anyway to make custom maps using scarab?
You cannot make mods using scarab
You need to program them, and once finished you can add them to scarab for people to use.
hi everybidy
i wanna install the modinstaller2 does that require me to put in a different version of the game?
i actually am only interested in custom skins
so if you have a mod launcher that doesn't require me to downpatch to the beta it would be great

ye sadly it doesn't say if scarab has custom skins
all it says is that modinstaller 1 and 2 both need 1.4.3.2
while scarab work with 1.5, but does it support custom skins?
that's what i am only interested in
You can install custom knight using scarab
ok so it does work with the latest version of the game?
Yes
yes
sick
now
how do i import custom skins?
also
do i ahve to open scarab.exe every time i launch hollow knight or is it an automatic thing?
is the procedure the same shown in modinstaller tutorials?
Scarab is only used to download mod, you don't need it open during play
You just open it, then click the mods you want. You will need custom Knight and satchel
okay thank you, to get custom skin is the same procedure as modinstaller?
download the skin then drag it in the folder
After you've downloaded the mod head to your game files. There will be a custom Knight folder in there now
Add your skins into that folder, following the same structure as the default skin
I want to make a mod but i am on switch help

how do i get skins for the latest 1.5 modder using custom knight
Download custom Knight and satchel
Download skins and put them in your custom Knight folder
(Your custom Knight folder is located in your mods folder, which scarab has a button to open)
how do i download them?
The mods are in scarab
Skins are in the pinned messages
just installed modinstaller 2 and it wont open and i cant find my issue in pinned can anyone help?
^mac
this is what shows up when i click show details
what version is your game?
1.4.3.2
You definitely downloaded the Mac version?
yes
now for some reason my hollow knight is unmoddded
You most likely received the newest update of HK itself, you need to open Scarab and get Modding API to update
Is there a way to have mods in console?
Nope
F
whats the link to mod installer?

can someone help me? I'm trying to get costume skins in hollow knight and i have them all installed and there showing up in hollow knight but whenever i select them and press apply it highlights it as if its going to but doesn't actually change the skin
i installed some of these skins, they still wont work(edit:sorry i didnt see the other instrucctions)
can someone help me out? when I try to use a randomizer mod and load up the game, it says "FAILED TO LOAD".
You're missing the dependencies
how does one get dependencies?
The mods that are required to make it run, I assume you disabled em when they installed
ah
You need: SereCore, Vasi, Qol, Benchwarp, and ModCommon
is there a way to change the directory of modinstaller? I want to have two different versions of the game, for scarab and modinstaller, and the modinstaller isnt letting me change directories.
Thanks dude!
For mod installer 1 just press the "Change Default Path" button
im on mac
If that's not working, or you're on mod installer 2, reset your mod installer: #archived-modding-help message
thank you sir

ok thanks
I have modinstaller 2, running on 1.4.3.2 and when I load up the game with like 3 mods, the music is gone, and it doesn't let me click on any save files. I know its something with the mod installer because I can run it unmodded just fine on any version. Any help?
is there an fps mod
pins
^
ok thanks
why am I soft lock in the dream world every time I die in the rando mod?
use fraps or smth
That's a bug in easy mode mod
oh ok thanks
does the randomizer glitch the completion percentage bc im pretty sure i got everything but i'm only at 99%? and i already used the map mod too?
The fixes I know of are:
- Uninstall Easy Mode
- Disable the "NoShade" setting
- Download a mod that places you back at dirtmouth every time you die/relog
Did you enabled the cursed setting? That removes extra mask shards, pale ore, charm notches, etc. and replaces em with 1 geo
nope!
Have you baet all the bosses, did you do pantheons?
all but p5
how do i get rid of the modding API in a down patched ?
You downpatch again if you didn’t make a backup of the file the ModdingApi replaces
Unless you mean version 1.4.3.2
huh im in a 1.2.2.1 and how to i get rid of the modding APi
I already gave you instructions?
They already answered you?
O.o
You downpatch again if you didn’t make a backup of the file the ModdingApi replaces
If you downpatched by the Steam betas you should just be able to verify game integrity, right?
1.2.2.1 isn’t there….
Since they added 1.2.2.1 to the betas list recently
They did?????
Well imma go now
huh cool
Imma sleep now, if 1.2.2.1 got put in the betas while my computer is deciding now to work then (help I’m tired having trouble finishing this)
Global Settings Reset
A simple .bat that resets all mod settings files. Useful for when hk mods are acting weird.

It's on the installer
Hollow Point is on Scarab now too, fwiw
play the game
you've clicked installed by a lot at once
so you should just reset the installer
cuz you've told it to download a ton at the same time
does it support multiplayer mod?
lol
also, does the mod installer work with v1.5.75.11827 or i need the exact v1.5?
does it work with v1.5.75.11827 tho?
i think
alright...
Yes. 1.5 is just shorthand to not include all the stuff after
one more question,
imagine if my friend is playing on v1.5.68 and i am on v1.5.75
can we still play multi together?
No
oof
And your friend should buy the game
is there a tutorial or something to install scarab?
i can't seem to find anything on youtube
every modding tutorial includes downpatching
It's rather new, and it's simple enough. Just go to the link in the pins, click the download link titled with what OS you're on ("Windows.zip/Mac.zip/Linux.zip"), go to your downloads, unzip the folder, move the unzipped folder to your desktop, and run scarab .exe
right
windows defender is being annoying
okay it seems to be working
thanks for the help
i assumed it would be much harder
it crashed when i tried to install debugmod
Is your game open right now?
ah
the other installer worked when the game was open
so i assumed this one would also work
what is satchel?
Satchel is a dependncy, and never leave the game open when installing mods or changing files, that can cause problems. Same goes for most things not HK related, don't try and change the files a program is using while the program is running
alright, will keep that in mind
hey im new here. For some reason the mod installer when i try to download it it says the game needs to be the most recent version to run
My hollow knight is the most recent idk what it wants

so i had a save on 1.5.75
i made a backup and modded a new instance
this was a few days ago
there was a patch yesterday to 1.5.78
now i cant open that save
does anyone here know how to work custom knight?
which version?
i have it instaled, and enabled on verstion 1.4.3
and i have skins installed in the right folder, i looked up a tutorial
ingame
but i can't find the menu to select one
What do you mean you can't open it?
when i launch the backup it opens in 1.2.2.1 even though the beta settings are off
the save file says 1.5.75
idk what to make of this
If you mean it's called User#.dat_1.5.75.11827, that's not your save file
no?
That's for 1.5
how do you get there?
yeah mine looks like that
Yes, but they said they're on 1.4
yes
i assumed its similar
It's not
welp
i can work it on 1.5 but on 1.4.3 i can't
That whole menu doesn't exist
in the tutorial i saw, there was a menu on the left
Oh, that's probably the problem
that doesn't exsist for me
did i lose the file?
Switching between versions can cause some issues, you should close the game and then (if you're on windows) run this bat
wdym run this bat
alright, i'll let you know what happens
thats for me
oh
^
dont worry about it
ok
it still launches in 1.2.2.1
You may have, your save file is just the User#.dat, that's the only one that matters and that the game reads, the User.dat.bak are backups that you shouldn't rely on, and the User#.dat_(version number) are just kinda there, I'm not certain what they do but it isn't your save
Do you mean your main menu says 1.2.2.1?
Does it have a spaghetti icon?
my main menu says 1.2.2.1
and i dont know what the spaghetti icon is supposed to mean
Can you post a screenshot
alright
Also, do you have multiple copies installed?
