Is there a way to straight up summon a mob using the debug mode in Godhome? Was asked a question about what would happen dying to a mob in Godhome during Steel Soul. Figured you guys might have some info

dusty tapir
#

Of course

junior tapir
#

#

dusty tapir
#

..hkmp?

junior tapir
#

dusty tapir
#

Ooh im not a multiplayer person hmm

#

junior tapir

dusty tapir
#

No prob, good luck

junior tapir
#

teal vortex
#

does anyone know why my custom knight mod isnt working. And or why i cant collect any geo for some reason

versed pine
#

I can't focus and I don't know if it's a mod breaking it

dusty tapir
dusty tapir
#

I doubt its hkmp because you didnt specify you were playing that

#

I mean are you?

teal vortex
#

i do play hkmp but i tried playing on the save file but offline and it still didnt collect geo

#

i just walk through it and it stays there

dusty tapir
#

This reminds me of an old bug where you could do a cdash from the menu and that would break the game and give you invincibility but couldnt collect geo

How can I reduce the number of masks I have with debug mod?

Ok, so I need some help, I'm trying to play HK on 1.4.3.2, but for some reason, whenever I open the game, my save files don't load and the mods menu is blank in the options, despite having multiple mods enabled, this worked last time I played about half a year ago but for some reason doesn't work now, anyone got any ideas?

dusty tapir
#

Its a one year old bug im pretty sure its fixed

limber egret
blissful vessel
dusty tapir
#

Are your saves there?

limber egret
#

You can change all sorts about your save in that file

teal vortex
#

is there a mod rn that causes the geo issue

versed pine
timber orbit
#

I have deleted everything I found there that was named as such

limber egret
# versed pine Yes

If you are still using it; you're not supposed to be able to heal, that's intended.
If you're not; there's a message in the pins about how to fix it.

limber egret
versed pine
#

It's just with that save

timber orbit
#

Oh wow, it was really that simple, thanks a lot. timpBee

Beep boop

limber egret
# cursive adder how do i apply a skin ive downloaded
  1. Make sure you have either Satchel (for 1.5) or Mod Common (for 1.4).
  2. Make sure your skins are in the correct folder. Hollow_Knight_data/managed/mods/custom Knight/skins/[Skin name]/image files for 1.5, or Hollow_Knight_data/managed/mods/custom Knight/[Skin name]/image files for 1.4
teal vortex
#

does anyone know what could cause me to not be able to pick up geo anymore.

cursive adder
#

im using the 1.4.3.2 installer or whatever

#

do i just make a folder for the skins or is there a mod i download for it

versed pine
#

K it was just that save

#

Hey all, I'm new here. I was wondering if I mod HK (I'm on steam), Will it disable achievements? For reference I'm looking for HUD disabling options or a photo mode. Thank you! grublove

random gorge
#

This question may sound dumb, but can Mods that drastically change gameplay, like BlackMoth, have their effects reversed or disabled by disabling the mod in the installer?

dark hemlock
#

does modding affect all your saves or only if you go into them? Should i just backup my non modded save?

spice vine
#

always back up if you are not sure

#

Hello I picked up a debug menu to play around Pantheon 5 with Save States, however Save States don't seem to work properly around the Pantheon, all room exists are deleted and defeating bosses don't grant passage to the next after loading a save (from another room at least)

I'm using debug, bench warp and bench warp fix

#

Is there anything I can do so the savestate properly put me back into the Pantheon? Or it's a quirk of how the game and debug menu interact?

Where would you install the AnyRadiance mod?

keen shale
#

please someone help

#

do I use modinstaller 1 or 2?

#

because 1 doesnt even open and 2 crashes my game whenever I install the api

#

it just shows this for about .5 seconds and then it goes away

#

dense shuttleBOT
native ice
#

Get scarab

olive grail
#

Anyone have a solution for this?

native ice
#

I don't understand how that's a problem, just open it through steam, or open steam or something?

graceful oxide
#

is grim skin availible in the pins?

native ice
#

Yes

graceful oxide
#

well it wasnt the grim skin I was looking for

#

Im talking about the one with a bat like skull

#

wait found it

#

it was grimm knight

#

also is there a way I can install custom menu backgrounds?

native ice
#

Don't think any of those exist atm

#

Not sure tho

graceful oxide
#

I think one exists

#

the infected one

#

where there is the eye of THK

native ice

Isn't that one vanilla?

graceful oxide

lol

olive grail
dense isle
#

So my hollow knight backgrounds just don't appear for me

#

The only mod I have is custom knight

olive grail
#

@dense isle can you take a screenshot?

dense isle
#

Background less

olive grail
#

is steam open?

dense isle
#

no

olive grail
#

this might be related to your problem but I also experienced the achievements popping up every time you bench, and it was because steam wasn't running

#

try to open the game in steam

dense isle
#

no I mean the background not showing ;-;

#

The achievements thing is cuz I just ented the save file

olive grail
#

yeah try to open hk on steam

olive grail
dense isle
#

ok

olive grail
#

achievements won't pop up when you bench or enter the game

dense isle
#

meh

olive grail
#

If the background still doesn't show when you open hk through steam, try to verify the integrity of the game files

#

and if it still doesn't show after you verify the game files, try reinstall the game

#

more than that I don't know what to do anymore xD

dense isle
#

kk tq

Like installing mods?

glass prism
#

with instaling a mod installer and then installing mods yeah

olive grail
#

What version are you using?

glass prism
#

i dont know lemme check

olive grail
#

There are 2 mod installers, for 1.4 and for 1.5

#

Check the pins to download the mods for 1.4 or 1.5

glass prism
#

i am using 1.5.78.11833

olive grail
#

1.5 is the current patch, but you can downgrade the game into 1.4

#

?pins

dense shuttleBOT
olive grail
#

You can see there the link for the scarab

#

It's the mod installer for 1.5

glass prism
#

how do i install it

olive grail
#

Click the link for the scarab

#

And you should be on a git hub page i think

glass prism
#

yeah im there

olive grail
#

There will be different version for mac, windows and linux

#

Click which os you are on

glass prism
#

i think i have windows

olive grail
#

Then download it

glass prism
#

ok i did that

olive grail
#

You'll have to extract it and run .exe file

#

I think it should automatically find the directory of the game

glass prism
#

how do i extract it

olive grail
#

Right click then choose extract here

glass prism
#

and what do i do now?

olive grail
#

Run the .exe file, once you have run it choose a mod then click the installed? Box

glass prism
#

i dont see the .exe file

olive grail
#

Can you screenshots?

#

I can't show you the file cuz im not on my pc atm

glass prism

is it possible to uninstall modinstaller? Incase I eventually want to go back to vanilla.

olive grail
#

you can just disable the mods

limber egret
#

Click disable API in the bottom left if you're using scarab.

Otherwise right click your game in Steam, properties, local files, verify integrity

#

That will revert you back to vanilla

#

Thanks!

And it won't corrupt my save or anything?

real jacinth
#

so.... no

primal frigate
#

vit wont let me past the modlog.txt file

teal vortex
#

idk how it happened. I installed scarab and some mods, and it was working fine. Even played multiplayer with a friend. But the next day it just didnt allow me to ccollect anymore geo

real jacinth
#

well that's not enough to go off of

olive grail
#

best thing you can do is to try to verify the game files

primal frigate
#

this is good right ?

real jacinth
#

how big of a file is your QoL dll

#

i would suggest deleting it, and redownloading it with the installer

#

and also deleting your settings file for it

primal frigate
#

the qol.dll file is 55 kb

primal frigate
real jacinth
#

either

primal frigate
real jacinth
#

same location as modlog

#

should be a .json and a .json.bak

primal frigate
#

both ?

real jacinth
#

yes

primal frigate
#

ok i uninstalled it and deleted the files now to re install it

it works

Hi! I need help with an achievement. I was playing with skins mods on an old file.
I ||defeat Zote in the Colosseum of Fools||. The achievement notification did appear but it didnt register on my GoG account. In fact, none of the achievements that I did registered. So I updated the game to the latest version and open the game. Now the achievements for ||defeating Grey Prince Zote, and Banishment the Grimm Troupe ||appear on my game and on my account, except for ||Rivalry (Defeat Zote in the Colosseum)||
What do I do? Do I need to make another file and rush this achievement ??

lilac sorrel
#

the fool skin?

#

right im not sure

real jacinth
#

GoG blocks achievements while mods are installed

#

also, you don't need to spoiler tag things in this channel

#

also also, pretty sure you can just give yourself whatever achievements you want. you can on steam, so you probably can on gog too

slow cradle
real jacinth
#

no. it's a native thing on steam

#

you just run a command or something and you get the achievements

#

you could do it for any game

slow cradle
#

I didn't know that was a thing. A cmd command?

real jacinth
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

in any rate, you'll have to get any GoG achievements without mods on if you want to do them "properly"

slow cradle
#

Oof

#

Like, it does not make any sense. I have Zote on Dirtmouth talking nonsense.
I defeated his dream form. :C

very new to this, but after I installed mods on HK on steam i am now unable to use my controller, any advice to fix it?

I also had to swap the steam version back to 1.4.3.2 if that matters

you might have to use ds4windows

hm

real jacinth

or use a controller to KB mapping program

like joy2key

it had worked previously, but i guess the previous version messed it up?

Gotcha. When I get to this screen and I check the Installed box, I just get an error text document. Not sure what to make of that

real jacinth

what does the error say

hazy belfry
#

It's a very long string message, I can't post in here due to character limit

real jacinth

screenshot then

#

or post the log file directly

when i open the mod installer it opens something then closes immediately

woa big word

real jacinth

close your game

Ooo, duh. Okay

And then checking off the box will install whichever selected mod?

I downpatched to 1.4.3.2 just now

#

and it changes the text in the hall of gods to "god of meme" and the text in the intro to any radiance

#

but the fight is regular absrad

real jacinth
#

do you have any other mods

#

i disabled all other mods

Hey guys! I need help with HK installation. Previously I played the game on a console to which i don't have access anymore. I want to install hk on my computer so that I can also install mods. Could you please tell me if I should download the game from Steam or there is another way?
My computer specifications: MacBook Pro 13-inch, 2018. macOS BigSur 11.6

Thank you! Also, could you please tell me where can I find information about mod installing?

#

I super new to it, I barely know anything

keen shale
#

its really easy

keen shale
#

then all the mods are incredibly easy to install and manage from there

#

customknight is a bit more complex but a quick google search should explain it

#

Awesome! Thanks! What about the game updates? Does it mess something up?

#

or game freely updates and mods don't break?

Very annoying that the 1.4.3.2 mod installers tell people to update when they're the things that are outdated

I downloaded Scarab but i am now a little confused. There is Benchwarp and BenchWarpFix, which one should i install? Also, I found a document that briefly explains each mod, however, the doc is outdated a bit. It also says that many mods require some other mods to be installed. Is there a document that clarifies which mods are basically mandatory and which are optional?

So i installed everything and the game as well as mods seem to work fine. But Hollow Knight doesn't see my PS5 controller. Has anyone experienced similar issue? I tested the controller in Cuphead and it worked perfectly fine but not hk

native ice
terse anchor
#

latest version of the game on steam. macOS BigSur 11.6

native ice
#

Hm, well I know there was a problem where the installer would add the windows api and not the mac api, but I thought that was fixed with scarab, you could try manually installing the mac api. Some other simple fixes are to

  1. Unplug your controller before launching and then reconnect it (Is ps5 bluetooth? I'm not sure, if so you can try unsyncing it but that probably won't work)
  2. Use steams big picture mode controller settings, ensure that steam input is enabled, and select your controller type
  3. Download a program to map controller inputs to keyboard inputs
terse anchor
#

Thanks, I'll try that now

Gimme a minute to find it. I was pretty sure it was fixed with scarab tho

(Doesn’t scarab install that instead?)

I thought so, but I'm not certain. I heard mac and controller issues so I figure it couldn't hurt to try

The folder just above it

Done

Now try again?

native ice
#

yea

terse anchor
#

Didn't work

#

"When prompt to overwrite files, say yes". But since I just moved the folder it didn't ask anything. Might be for this reason

wheat orchid
#

That’s the windows instructions, iirc Mac is different

latent magnet
#

why is my notebook keep getting crash from hk

wheat orchid
#

Gonna need some information to get close to telling you that

#

Have you modded hollow knight

latent magnet
#

no

#

my gpu is intel(R) Iris(R) Xe graphics

wheat orchid
#

What version of hollow knight are you trying to use (most recent ver or ver 1.4.3.2)?

latent magnet
#

I downloaded it just 3weeks ago so I bet it is in the most recent version

wheat orchid
#

Has hollow knight worked before

latent magnet
#

no so I updated my computer and I thought it worked fine but it crashed again

wheat orchid
#

Do you know if your computer supports 64 bit applications

latent magnet
#

hmm I don't really know

wheat orchid
#

Also where did you purchase the game

latent magnet
#

steam

wheat orchid
#

Alright

latent magnet
#

and it looked like it has a problem in frame resolution

wheat orchid
#

Try right clicking the game in your steam library, click properties, click betas, click the drop down menu (you don’t need to mess with beta codes) and select 1.4.3.2, wait for the game to reinstall and see if it works

latent magnet
#

oh thx I'll try that later

wheat orchid
#

If it doesn’t work, then try redoing the steps but selecting None in the drop down menu. If it still doesn’t work and no one else has tried helping you, try asking in #hk-help idk how to help you further, sorry

It's the same thing

you just open it again

It opened because you opened it. It doesn't automatically open.

why in the world

are my CPU temps and stuff so fucked up

Not sure why you're asking here, but if I were to guess, I would think that they aren't being properly cooled.

That could be because of a number of reasons, and you may want to look up a guide on how to diagnose that problem.

that a known issue for custom knight have you try like closing the game booting it back changing skins ext ...

native ice
# lament aurora
  1. Restart your game
  2. Change skins in small rooms likes tag stations
  3. ModComon is the only required mod for custom knight (in 1.4, in 1.5 it's satchel)

Do the skins work with randomizers(room and items)

Close the installer, and unzip the benchwarp file, then open it, look for a file called "Benchwarp.dll" (dll may not be in the name and my just show up under file type on the right) and move that into your mods folder, then delete the rest of it

#

Also make sure you download mod common

oh what it says download complete now but now i get this error

should i still do the thing u said?

Or

#

What mods are you trying to get (aside from benchwarp)

rustic widget
#

btw tysm for trying to help me

#

really appreciated

native ice
#

First, open the game and check if it says "Modding API" in the top left corner

native ice
#

?mods Okay, now close your game, and go to the "Google Drive with Mods" linked below. In it, search for: SereCore, ModCommon, Benchwarp, Vasi, and QoL. Download those, unzip them, and place the dll files into your "Mods" folder

rustic widget
#

alright

native ice
#

I left out randomizer 3 because there's a more updated version with some extra features available, to get it, head to #randomizer, join the speedrunning server in the pins, and then go to #randomizer-announcements and get the latest randomizer 3 download

#

actually, here's just the github if you don't want to join the speedrunning server

native ice
#

Get rando 3, and then you should be good to test it

rustic widget
native ice
#

it should just open and then start a download

#

check the bottom of the page

#

or your downloads folder

#

or there's this

i just click on randomizermod3 and it downloads right?

Is there any version of InfinitePoP that drops you right at the start of PoP? Any help would be hugely appreciated, thanks all!!
