Hey there, I'm new here and to modding hollow knight. Maybe someone can help me with my problem...
I just installed scarab on mac and now I'm not able to play the game with controller. Is this a known problem?
well u gotta do that so the mods work
but how does one do that
im not entirely sure if im right
so its better to wait for someoen who knows how to do it
cuz i dont wanna mess anything up
touche
Thank you!
Not sure is this the place but in the multiplayer mod i don't have an option to host or start. Is there a way to fix it? I have the client and server mod installed
use scarab, pins
yo whats up can you get randomizer on scarab or nah
as me and a friend are wondering if you can play randomizer and multiplayer at the same time
hey, does anyone know if there's a button that hides and shows the mod console
how do you downpatch the game? I want to try speedrunning on 1.2.2.1 and I can't figure out how to get off of current patch
why does my hollow point not load?
i dont think so
I apparently can't use spells anymore on Hollow Point, did anything change? Yes I've read the readme, I simply can't even with F
PS: Nevermind, I found out you need adrenaline points
Hello, having an issue with scarab, whenever i click Install on a mod, the installer just shuts down
hi. For some reason even tho my custom knights is installed and was working fine earlier. Its not working all of a sudden. The mod doesnt appear in options and when I join my friends multiplayer server certain things like collecting geo arent working now
i use scarab
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
@limber egret hey, sorry for the ping, i need a bit of help with something
You would.. die..?? I mean play around with thr debug mode it should be there somewhere but its nothing special if im not wrong
Okay, I only saw like duping but only glanced at it briefly. Cheers for the answer
I never actually used it myself so im not sure actually
Ev 7%, do u think you could help me with this modding issue
that's alright if you aren't
uhm I'm playing HKMP but i'm not able to collect geo or change my skin
..hkmp?
ah sorry, hollow knight multiplayer
that's alright, thanks for trying!
No prob, good luck
thanks
does anyone know why my custom knight mod isnt working. And or why i cant collect any geo for some reason
I can't focus and I don't know if it's a mod breaking it
Never happened to me, try disabling mods one by one and see what fixes it
This seems to be a reoccuring issue, its probably a widely used mod so you could try waiting for its fix or find and disable it
I doubt its hkmp because you didnt specify you were playing that
I mean are you?
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
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?
Have you ever used Hollow Point?
You cannot. You will have to edit your save.
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?
was there a fix
Its a one year old bug im pretty sure its fixed
Head to your saves folder, delete anything named SOMETHING.globalsettings.json
what's the site for that again?
Check something, win+r, type %appdata% and enter, and check in localLow for team cherrys folder you might be in roaming, go back one folder and enter locallow
Are your saves there?
Download QoL mod
Open the save file you need to edit
Close the game
Head to your saves and find the save file with "userN.JSON".
You can change all sorts about your save in that file
is there a mod rn that causes the geo issue
Yes
I have deleted everything I found there that was named as such
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.
Should be good to go, then!
It's just with that save
Oh wow, it was really that simple, thanks a lot. 
There are websites that allow esier editing of save files i think, used one to get a save file for pop
If so can you like show me link?
If you know what I mean
how do i apply a skin ive downloaded
Beep boop
- Make sure you have either Satchel (for 1.5) or Mod Common (for 1.4).
- Make sure your skins are in the correct folder.
Hollow_Knight_data/managed/mods/custom Knight/skins/[Skin name]/image filesfor 1.5, orHollow_Knight_data/managed/mods/custom Knight/[Skin name]/image filesfor 1.4
does anyone know what could cause me to not be able to pick up geo anymore.
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
K it was just that save
hold up i found a vid
You also need custom Knight on top of what I've just said, then.
im dumb lol
Hey tamijo, could you help me with an issue i have, i mentioned it earleir but we couldnt find a solution
I don't know anything about multiplayer
fair, do you think it could be one of the mods doing that? as apprently it does the same in singleplayer
where do i download the modinstaller
Pins
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! 
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?
does modding affect all your saves or only if you go into them? Should i just backup my non modded save?
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?

The download is in the pins, note it's for 1.4.3.2 and requires mod common
I don't think that's gonna be possible, you can always just amp your nail damage up to 9999 and one shot bosses to quickly get around pantheons
thank you
It shouldn't if you don't go into the save, but back up your saves if they matter
Most of em yea, hollow point breaks soul but there's a pin for that. You can always back up your save or just play on new ones
Nope, you can still get achievements with mods and steam
A simple question, for the 1.5 mods, is there a google doc or something that goes more indepth into what some of the mods do?
Not yet, aside from their simple descriptions you can see on scarab by selecting the arrow next to their name, there's the 1.4 readme doc the readmes should be updated for mods that have been updated, but new ones aren't on there i don't think
So what does Godseeker Plus add cause I was wondering that
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
also why does it say out of date?
Check the pinned messages for more information - https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/187137504393035776/823796522751623168/unknown.png
Get scarab
Anyone have a solution for this?
I don't understand how that's a problem, just open it through steam, or open steam or something?
is grim skin availible in the pins?
Yes
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?
lol
yeah just a minor inconvenience lmao
So my hollow knight backgrounds just don't appear for me
The only mod I have is custom knight
@dense isle can you take a screenshot?
Background less
is steam open?
no
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
no I mean the background not showing ;-;
The achievements thing is cuz I just ented the save file
yeah try to open hk on steam
that's not normal tho
ok
achievements won't pop up when you bench or enter the game
meh
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
kk tq
anyone know a video on how to install and use the mod installer?
Does anyone have experience with getting mods to work on the Windows version through Proton on Linux? I have heard that Proton is better than the native Linux version
what mod installer are you gonna use
Can i change the menu background with my own???
I don't really, but I can't imagine it'd be any different than normal modding, is it not working?
Currently I just bought Hollow Knight (for the second time), so I'm just asking for the future
You really don't need a video, download Scarab, unzip the folder you downloaded, and run it.
there's no mod for that I think but there are vanila ones that you can change

does this mod called vasi auto intall when installing hollow point?
You can check your mod list to make sure it does, but it is required for it
Not sure if it actually installs it automatically on every installer
ok
It should
can I upgrade my nail in hell mod? I have the option to pay for it but I read it wont change anything so im just asking to make sure?
@glass prism what kind of help do you need?

yeah im there
There will be different version for mac, windows and linux
Click which os you are on

You'll have to extract it and run .exe file
I think it should automatically find the directory of the game
how do i extract it
Right click then choose extract here
and what do i do now?
Run the .exe file, once you have run it choose a mod then click the installed? Box
i dont see the .exe file
i dont know how to screenshot
ok i opened it
how do i download custom skins?

Hello. I wanted to ask a question. I don’t know where to install the Glass Soul mod. Help me please.
Glass mod

Thn
is it possible to uninstall modinstaller? Incase I eventually want to go back to vanilla.
you can just disable the mods
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
no
Alright great
I even had my saves from the time when I was using a pirated version of HK
They answer very quickly here. This is amazing.
I have been trying to download the mod installer but it keeps saying that i need to be on the current patch which i am on. does anyon know how to fix this?
what version are you using?
You need to use scarab
how do i fix this
can someone help me. I dont know how to install scarab
download from pins, unzip, run the program
i am new to computers where do i put the file
desktop
what do I do once its on the desktop
have you extracted the file?
where do i extract it to
desktop
yo my mods been like this for 3 days still dont know why its working any idea ?

seems fine
ye but it just stopped working the day after i downloaded and used a save file
but where in the modlog.txt

i found more
idk what any of that says but im pretty sure thats an error
maybe something is missing
idk
just upload the whole txt file
how do i do that
copy -> paste
oh ok
or, drag and drop
the whole thing ?
oh ok
if you just copy/paste the text in it, I will delete your msg
dunno what you did
so.... no
vit wont let me past the modlog.txt file
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
well that's not enough to go off of
best thing you can do is to try to verify the game files
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
the qol.dll file is 55 kb
do i delete it in the files or uninstall it with the installer ?
either
and where is the setting file
both ?
yes
ok i uninstalled it and deleted the files now to re install it
it works
mickely tysm bro ily

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 ??
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
How do I do that? Do I need to downgrade my game, and install an specific mod?
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
I didn't know that was a thing. A cmd command?
This method of quickly unlocking and locking (resetting) Steam achievements uses Steam Achievement Manager, which can be downloaded here: https://github.com/gibbed/SteamAchievementManager/releases
Steam Database: https://steamdb.info/
Be sure to have the Steam client opened before you start up the achievement manager.
Thanks for supporting th...
¯_(ツ)_/¯
in any rate, you'll have to get any GoG achievements without mods on if you want to do them "properly"
Oof
Like, it does not make any sense. I have Zote on Dirtmouth talking nonsense.
I defeated his dream form. :C
did you unzip it
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?
which controller
im using a ps5 controller
I also had to swap the steam version back to 1.4.3.2 if that matters
you might have to use ds4windows
hm
it had worked previously, but i guess the previous version messed it up?
it's happened before
yes
bro how do i mod

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
what does the error say
It's a very long string message, I can't post in here due to character limit
when i open the mod installer it opens something then closes immediately
woa big word
yes
anyone know why the mod manager opens then closes right after it opens???
Sweet, thanks for the help
what OS are you on
windo
Mod installer #1 from the recent pin
does it generate an AU file
ok, your pc just slow
lmao
.
so provide some context
like what the entire mod list you have is. what installer you used. what patch you're on.
screenshots are great
I downpatched to 1.4.3.2 just now
then put the dll in the mods folder
and installed the modding api before that
modinstaller 2
the mod appears in the top left on the title screen
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
do you have any other mods
i disabled all other mods
it doesnt say that it failed to load
and the only other thing on the title screen is modding api
uh... i can't open my modinstaller for some reason
i mean, it worked when i installed it, but now it's doesn't open
unfortunate
well, i found a way around, i have to open it from the zip
is there a item randomizer for 1.5?
Can someone help me with the modinstaller for 1.5? I just downloaded it and installed some mods, but the only mod that seems to be working is the HowwowKnyight mod. Custom knight and benchwarp aren't even visable for me
Fixed it
my game keeps crashing when i open it with mods on
Sounds like you used the incorrect Mod Installer. Check the most recent ~3 or 4 pins 
use scarab instead of modinstaller 2
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
Steam is typically the recommended place to get it, yes.
You need to own the game from either Steam or GOG to be able to use mods (the other versions won't work).
I would reccomend keeping an eye on this site for sales if you want:
https://isthereanydeal.com/game/hollowknight/info/
the game goes on 50% off pretty regularly.
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
its really easy
download it on steam, go to the pinned messages and get scarab installer
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?
"Typically speaking" Hollowknight doesn't update frequently, so it doesn't matter. In the even that there is an update, then you need to use the previous patch until the ModdingAPI is updated too.
There's been an update on October 21st. Is ModdingAPI updated already?
question I installed the latest version of hk and the modinstaler keep doing this
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?
Benchwarp. There's not an updated doc yet. No mods "need" to be installed, but the dependency mods are: Satchel, Vasi, SFCore, and FrogCore. They don't really do anything on their own (Except SFCore which I believe changes the inventory UI) and if you just leave em installed then you won't need to worry about that. Otherwise it should install them for you automatically
i installed some mods and my game constently crashes
@here does anyone know how to install the google translate mod?
Thank you!
what does the iron skin look like?
Same way you get other mods, it's calleD "Poorly translated"
i thought you had to manually install it
Nope, it's on 1.4 tho
Google it
something like "Hollow Knight Iron Skin Showcase"
does anyone have an anti arachnophobia mod
To my knowledge that doesn't exist
okay
i installed the custom knight mod but it doesn't show up in the mods list
can someone tell me how to fix it?
what folder do i put mods in
For multiplayer skins, where do I find the skin IDs?
how do i get pale king skin?

in the middle right of the screen there should be a debug menu where you can bind commands to hotkeys, click the "1/13" to change pages and look through there

now i dont have to do deepnest! :D (at least until i want to do p3...)
Tips on Hollow point PV?
Well first, unless you're looking for like randomizer, use scarab
well, i guess i'll wait then
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
What OS and game version are you on?
latest version of the game on steam. macOS BigSur 11.6
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
- 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)
- Use steams big picture mode controller settings, ensure that steam input is enabled, and select your controller type
- Download a program to map controller inputs to keyboard inputs
Thanks, I'll try that now
Tried 1 and 2. Didn't work. What do you mean by try manually installing the mac api? where can i find it?
Gimme a minute to find it. I was pretty sure it was fixed with scarab tho
Sure
You can try downloading the unix api https://github.com/hk-modding/api/releases/tag/1.5.78.11833-65
(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
yea
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
That’s the windows instructions, iirc Mac is different
why is my notebook keep getting crash from hk
Gonna need some information to get close to telling you that
Have you modded hollow knight
What version of hollow knight are you trying to use (most recent ver or ver 1.4.3.2)?
I downloaded it just 3weeks ago so I bet it is in the most recent version
Has hollow knight worked before
no so I updated my computer and I thought it worked fine but it crashed again
Do you know if your computer supports 64 bit applications
hmm I don't really know
Also where did you purchase the game
steam
Alright
and it looked like it has a problem in frame resolution
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
oh thx I'll try that later
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
hey, I'm trying to apply customknight skins and every time I clock apply the game freezes, is anyone able to help?
How long do you wait after it freezes
About 2-5 mins
Could you screenshot the pause menu?
any particular place?
Nah
this is after I turned off those mods in game to see if they clash
oh this actually happens just after leaving the mods menu
Ah sorry for replying so late, so the freeze is caused by leaving the mods menu?
when I leave the mod menu the game looks like this
Thanks!
You can't use a Controller "B" button (or equivalent) to exit the mods menu. You need to press the "back" button, or press "escape" on the keyboard
oh thanks!
No, downpatch to 1432
so I tried to install the Daughter of Hallownest skin in my game but it doesnt work, I saw that there is a .zip in the skin folder and I'm not sure of how to use/install it can anyone help with it?
For convenience, here's a .zip of just the skin for Daughter of Hallownest:

I just downloaded the 1432 installer
and
Is there any website/vid telling what each mod does
cause there are a lot
Umm when u install the mods through the Installer u get the readme option for it and it tells u what it does
thank you
The ReadMe Collection covers pretty much all 1432 mods.
It'll eventually be updated to cover all the 1.5 ones too, but effort

How do I open the installer again I closed ir
scarab? you just re open the .exe?
the rad one
I'll let them help you then
the first time it opened automaticly
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.
If I dont have the hollow knight dlc does mod installer not recognize it as an up to date patch?
I keep getting this msg but the game is up to date according to steam
nvm I fixed it!
how come custom knight isn't showing up in the mod menu when it looks like it's installed in the corner? I'm playing on the newest version
Is the mod menu updated to 1.5?
im asking for help again. Does anyone have any idea why my bg is gone?
whenever i try to download benchwarp this happens
Close hollow knight probably
Wait
I am trying to use the custom knight skin summer but it just shows all white what do I do
Does there need to be any other mod enables for custom knight to work
I checked everything in the pin
its not working
that a known issue for custom knight have you try like closing the game booting it back changing skins ext ...
- Restart your game
- Change skins in small rooms likes tag stations
- ModComon is the only required mod for custom knight (in 1.4, in 1.5 it's satchel)
ok let me try all that
Do the skins work with randomizers(room and items)
- Make sure your game is closed
- Ensure your installer isn't in a zipped folder
- Move the installer to your desktop
- Run the installer as administrator
- If none of that works, navigate to your mods folder and send a screenshot
There's a new installer for 1.5, check the pins. Not all mods are on it yet though

Go to your save files and clear the "CustomKnight.globalsettings.json" files, alternatively if you're on windows you can download and run this .bat to do that for you
@pearl cypress
Still not working
Im gonna try another skni
oh also be patient when selecting skins, I believe spam clicking a skin can cause that
Does having the mod API installed disable getting achievements? I can't find it anywhere.
no it doesn't
It doesn't disable in-game or steam achievements, i believe it does for GoG tho
Question, I'm using Scarab and i used the disable api to turn off the mods i had and now my healing speed is literally the speed of soul that goes down
How do i fix this?
Its randomly working now
Mods i have

I got Custom Knight working. Is it normal that it shows up as default skin for the animation of entering a Dream? (For a dream boss)
That depends on the skin
some skins might have missed some animations which is unfortunate but shouldn't really matter
Fair enough. It didn't bother me too much, just want to avoid issues in the future.
benchwarp is still stuck at download it says 0.00 mb / 0.00 mb
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?
cant extract :/
downloaded
Then delete the whole folder and try reinstalling
done it just didnt download now
only the error
now the mod folder is just empty
so uh basically i can't use the mod installer cuz this pops up, anyone got advice

Are you trying to get randomizer?
Or
What mods are you trying to get (aside from benchwarp)
yes
btw tysm for trying to help me
really appreciated
Well, if you did all of this minus step 5, and it's still giving you "Central directory corrupt" the only thing I know is to just manually install the mods
First, open the game and check if it says "Modding API" in the top left corner
yes it does
?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

alright
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
done
Get rando 3, and then you should be good to test it
the link doesn't load for me
it should just open and then start a download
check the bottom of the page
or your downloads folder
or there's this
oh this works
thanks
i just click on randomizermod3 and it downloads right?
it should
and i put the dll in mods right?
Yep
okay im in game and all is done
i think it worked
it shows the mods on top left
yes it worked!

thank you!!
Good luck, have fun
do you know why
there mods wont show in the top left
What game version and installer do they have?
1.4.3.2 and the zote installer
On the title screen, if they open the options menu, is there a "Mods" tab?
how can I use outdated scarab?
I need to use the last 1.5 patch instead of the latest current pstch
because of some problems
what is this? why does it happen? how to fix this?
v1.5 scarab, list of mods:
it happens when i start a new save file
screenshot your title screen
sec
here
there seems to be no problem if i disable all mods, get to first bench and enable them again
but it's weird how you cannot start the game with them enabled
well then just do that
it's probably a bug in one of the mods specifically on new file generation
I have HK on steam (it's updated automacically)
read pins
any clue when bonfire mod becomes available on scarab or it's not even related to you?
probably never
Now this May sound stupid And IT is, how can i get mods on Switch I need more hk content
you cant
why is there no randomizer mod on scarab
b/c it doesn't exist
so i cant play randomizer on current patch
no
Could you explain these problems and how you obtained this patch?

I archived the older version before updating
the new version takes like 5 minutes for every loading screen
which I don't understand
does not matter which mods I used
Have you tried without mods at all?
Hmm
I did try some suggestions like verifying and -noheap
nothing worked
my pc is potato yes but on the last patch it worked just fine
did you try a registry clear
what's that
?guides
it's a section in the downpatching guide
"deleting windows registry"
(assuming you're on windows since you haven't specified otherwise)
cry or somethin
where'd you buy the game, what patch are you on, what mods did you install, what OS are you on
need some actual context
1404?
wtf
screenshot your installer and title screen
that is steam
not your mod installer
corrupt discord lmao
so what else did you corrupt
🤔
not sure what I'm supposed to get from that
but okay
go to steam, right click the game-> properties -> local files -> verify integrity
after it's done, launch the game
Hi all! I recently finished full clearing HK and loved it. I especially loved Path of Pain, and wanted play it again, maybe try speed running it.
I played on console, so I got the game on Steam and downloaded the 1.5 modinstaller. I want to run InfinitePoP, but have a clean game, coming from console.
Is there any version of InfinitePoP that drops you right at the start of PoP? Any help would be hugely appreciated, thanks all!!
resources section of this link should have save files
saying get the newest patch to use the mod loader
what patch
the loader
or the game

hey Guys. A few days ago I anstalled my very first Mod for Hollow Knight and i am amazed by it. I used the version "scarab". I'd like to appreciate the hard work behind the mod. Is there a possibility to donate to the creater of that modder?
Thanks for your help during my installation process
I think there's a donate button on that one? not sure. if so, that'd be the way. otherwise don't think there's a way
Awesome thanks!

3rd pin
You can’t mod a cracked version
It does not
If you wanna play mods buy the game lol
but i dont have money to do that
I get the support the devs and stuff and I seriously believe in it but shamefully for justified reasons I cannot pay for the game despite having the money and yet skin mods and scarab works for me
I did not find windows in it it was just MacOs
you can't downpatch a stolen copy
and we do not allow endorsement of stealing in the dev's server
Are you playing on steam
Im not endorsing it Im even ashamed of it
is that endorcing?
yes
if so Im sorry
but you have the cracked version?
aiding and abetting
yes yes I get it now I deleted that
Well
Hi, can i make hk skins drawing with a mouse? bc i think i cant draw the small borders
bc of the pressure
@latent grove
when playing with hollow point is your gun supposed to be slow and deal no damage
no
it says windows cannot find save. Make sure you typed the name correctly and try again. what do I do?
don't include the label in the run search
ty
is there a limit to how many skins you can install using custom knight?
The limit is your own PC
At a certain point you will run into issues
Also there's no paging etc to the list, so after about 10 you can't click on the ones below.
im using 1.2.1 so i can scroll down actually
i currently have 31 installed, didnt face any issues until i installed a few right now, aight then thanks
yeah deleting some (that arent newly installed) fixed it, thanks!
I have recently got the scarab modding api and is there a way to add your own mods to it, I can't find a way
whatever it is called
Also what mods are you trying to add
at the end i've just reverted to 1.4
considering how many mods it supports compared to 1.5
ok
with customknight
