I got custom knight on Scarab and it doesn't show up on the mods section in the in-game settings

Mods are working in general right?
Yes

Then clear your globalsettings files, they can be found in with your saves ^
Clear as in just delete them, you should only need to delete the custom knight ones, but you might just wanna delete em all
Thank you! I got it to work now
how do i fix this when starting a randomizer run?
how do i access binding options for "toggleable bindings" (scarab)
still can't figure out
you read the readme
screenshot your title screen
that seems to have worked, thanks
I have a 112% run I just did and I want to do a rando. would it affect my 112% file and randomize that file and the new one?
So long as you don't open it with rando installed you will be fine
ok cool thanks

I downloaded a few custom skins but when I click on them they disappear, at one point it kicked me out of the game and said it was write protected? can anyone help me???
where'd you get the game from? what patch are you on? what installer are you using? did you check pins for common customknight troubleshooting?
I'm using mod installer, I got the game on steam? I'm on the 32 bit patch thing, the one you can use mods on ;-;
where's that
are there any mods that can make pets in pet charms invisible
they just distract me from the fight 
@novel bronze
oh i get it now thanks
So I'm trying to manually mod HK 1.4.3.2 on mac, but I want to keep another modded version of HK 1.5.(...), and I managed to create multiple instances of the game, each with their own directories and copies of the Modding API. The problem is that the only thing that shows up in the upper-left hand corner is the modding API
For now, I am testing with just HKMP and Randomiser version 3
The only reason I'm installing manually is because I can't seem to find a way to change the directory in ModInstaller2, so I may juse be being stupid about that
Edit: I just had to change path in Scarab, and it carried over to ModInstaller2
does anyone know why redwing does not work with randomizer 3?
i'm pretty sure you can't use 1.4.3.2 on mac? unless you've never upgraded to catalina
i use 1.4.3.2 on mac
im trying to use a few mods and whenever i load the game it does this
ive already redownloaded mod api
no
do you have rando 3?
no
i have charm notch mod, customknight, enemy hp bar, hollow point, and mod common
hmmm
it seems that it is showing the hollow point stuff on top of something else, but im not sure what it is.
let me check real quick
can you send me a screen shot of the game with hollow point off?
yeah
how can i fix it
by reading the readme
hollow point doesn't work on a fresh save
the readme says as much
ah
hi, i was wondering where the README.txt is in the mods folder, because it doesnst seem to be here...
for hollow point
It's not in the mods folder, usually it's in just the game folder, but all (1.4, most 1.5 mods are missing) readmes can be found in a document in the pins
yo, so i've been tryna get 112% on hell mod, but my percentages aren't lining up. Do soul vessles not give percents?
i didnt get the VR mod working with Oculus Rift
Anyone got it working with OR-VR or Vive or with some other headset?
Nevermind, i got VR working
i just had to type -vr to launch options to enable it
How does someone join a multiplayer server?
Can someone tell how to make the knight dash upwards
Can someone here do a mod that lets u dash upwards on the charm that lets u dash downward?
Idk how to code but if u know, do it or tell me how
Is there such thing qs a level editor that you can make the things blend in woth thenormal level
I teied the one that like fireborn used but it didsnt blend in with the lvl and deleting this didnt work half the time
i'm getting a unity error code when i try to start the game now anybody know whats up?
There's a tutorial in the pins
More details please
idk because the error code only shows up for a split second but basically i cnnot run the game
Afaik there's only decoration master
?pins You're using the wrong installer for the game version you have
Check the pinned messages for more information - https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/187137504393035776/823796522751623168/unknown.png
ok thank you
Blackmoth has upwards dashing iirc, but that has other features you may not want, if you really want to you can learn the basics of coding and probably just copy most that code. Why do you want that tho?
Hey dudes. I was trying to do an enemy randomizer but I think I'm missing something. I can send a screenshot of my mod folder if anyone has a sec to help me out. Been reading pinned and I thought I followed it.
Did you press the [Load Enemy Randomizer] button?
also can you explain what the actual issue is?
hey so ? im not exactly sure what happened but my file and everything was working fine earlier (im only using charm revamp and a charm combo mod along with custom knight since its my first playthrough) and i turned my comp off and went to bed and i just wokeup and im trying to play again and it launched vanilla version of the game and so i went to go check my files and the mods folder and all my stuff that was in it is just gone?
The game doesn't actually load, period. When I used Scarab, it did (with a few issues). Healthbar worked. But Scarab doesn't have the enemy randomizer. So I followed the instructions to change the two DLL files, but when I did that, the game decides not to load unless I reinstall it via. Steam.
the folders being gone is weird, but could just mean you're looking in the wrong spot
yeah i just redownloaded mod installer to reinstall my mods and it says they still are installed?
like i cant install them a second time it just says uninstall
so now im really confused
i dont know how they would have moved or where they would have gone
instructions to change the two DLL files
What instructions? And by the sound of it you're using enemy randomizer on 1.5 which doesn't work, downpatch to 1.4 and get mod installer 1/2
You're probably looking in the wrong folder, what folder are you in and what OS are you on?
im on windows and im looking in the same folder it used to be in .-. but its the local files from steam
Hm
yeah the "readme" notepads for the mods are here
but the mods folder and stuff
is just gone??
Oh
Are you in the Hollow Knight folder, cause the mods folder is in \Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\
all the levels and stuff are here
oh nvm
oh my god youre right i forgot its in the managed folder 😭
and you're using scarab?
thank you so much
oh
im using the other one !!
Well, that doesn't fix your other issue
still gotta figure out why its launchging in vanilla tho .-.\
and why my save files are blank / stuck on loading 😭
oh
This is both your issues
Also for future reference, please check the pinned messages

uhh i need help-
idk why this happened. i was just adding skins in for custom knight and when i opened the game this happened.
screenshot your title screen
well you have multiple mods failing to load
looks like you're missing modcommon and vasi
oh- huh. i never removed them so thats odd.
oh well. if that doesnt work ill come back lol.
ughhh now the mod installer wont load!! whyyyyyyy ;-; god i hate my laptop ;-;
Like RiverRobot said, if you are trying to use Enemy Randomizer on 1.5, it is not currently compatible. I've recently started working on an update, but it'll likely be a little while before it's ready.
Oh, all good. Is there a link for downgrading?
There should be a guide on downgrading a few posts down in the pins
nothing is happening when i use scarab
where can I find the... how do I say? the wiki thing for multiplayer mod?
The readme? A tutorial? Or if you're using HKMP there's an entire discord server you can check
yeah I just found it thanks though!
can someone help me with modinstaller
it works only on 1.4.3.2 but i need a password to use that patch
You don't need a password, that's for private betas, set it to 1.4.3.2 and close the menu. Or download scarab, it's for 1.5
ok but it refuses to update
in steam
nvm
my hokllow knight was running so i couldnt update it lmao
I assume you mean xbox gamepass
It's a little unstable tho
There is a way, it's complicated
Yeah
It's easier to just buy the game on steam or gog
Yes I do mean game pass
Thank you
Gl
Hey Thank you very much for this, but I can´t open the link. Can anybody help me?
Wdym you can't open it?
Oh I see
They forgot the hollow knight part, https://www.speedrun.com/hollowknight/resources
Whats afaik
As Far As I Know
what mod on scarab has a constant compass?
CompassAlwaysOn
thanks and where can i find custom knight skins?
In the pinned messages of this channel
really dumb question i'm sorry for asking but in what folder exactly do i put CustomKnight skins?
On 1.5 you place the folder containing the skin pngs into the Skin folder, located at \Mods\Custom Knight\Skins (to get to mods press ("Open Mods" at the bottom left of scarab)
On 1.4 you place the folder containing the skin pngs into the Custom Knight folder, located at \Managed\Mods\Custom Knight\
i'm on 1.5 and in the "Skins" folder there are "Default" and "SwapperDemo" 😐
thank you for helping 😄
Well yea, put your skins in with those
Default is the default skin, swapperdemo is i believe a showcase of the swapper feature of 1.5 custom knight
...
Place it in the Skins folder
Next to Default
it doesn't work there i tried
It doesn't work in what way?
yea
but i think something is wrong with the mod itself(i haven't downloaded something)
I need more details or I can't help you
it's showing in top left but not in the pause GUI
Hello guys I need help with the mod installer
Open the "options" menu and then the "Mods" tab, select "Custom Knight" and click "Select Skin"
I try to execute it but it doesn't show anything on screen
You mean the program doesn't open or it opens a blank window?
It does show a window but it closes itself inmediatly
Is this the mod installer or the game?
The mod installer
What OS are you using?
i think i fixed it thank you so much for the help = D
Windows 11
Is there an AU.exe file anywhere near your mod installer?
But when I used windows 10 I had the same problem
Yes
^ Or download Mod installer 2 from the pins
Okay I'll try that
And if you don't know, hollow knight updated semi-recently, if you haven't played in a couple months you should download Scarab (first/second pin) as mod installer is for 1.4.3.2 and won't work with 1.5 HK
Sorry, from where do I download Scarab?

Oh thanks a lot
Hey, thank you for this. I have installed a 112 % save file. How can I activate it?
Thanks a lot, preciated
does scarab have a mod for infinite money?
getting very lazy to farm for money
hahaha
install debug mod, profit
oh wow, that's too OP xD
the entrance to soul sanctum is broken in enemy randomiser
should i just disable and re-enable?
You need to use No Clip to leave certain rooms
It has one built in, or you can use Debug to add it to a hotkey
Extract this folder. Inside you'll find a bunch of folders from various parts of the run. Take one of the save files from inside the last one and drop it into your own saves folder.

umm could i get some help with this?
i was trying to install custom knight and this came up
Press continue
You can
Create a folder and name it whatever you want the skin to be called, drop in the different sheets from the different skins you want
If you're very good you can edit two of the same sheet together, but that will require some experience with image editing
(Like, a very small amount.)
thanks
i just added the skins to the custom knight folder and now im opening hollow knight
As a small aside, your pfp is my second monitor wallpaper
did you add them to the skin folder?
i checked again and now theres a new folder called custom knight
Your skins need to be in there
yea i put them in one
Can you send a screenshot with the inside of that folder showing the images for the skin and the address bar?
So your file path should end up as:
CustomKnight/MySkinName/[Image files]
If there's an extra folder in there it won't work
what program wuld you reccomend for that?
I use Krita or Glimpse for that kind of stuff.
I imagine I'd use Glimpse for this.
You're literally just cutting and pasting parts of one image onto another is all
nope
i think this is the right place but i think i installed the wrong mod manager thing as i don't know how to enable the mods i was previously using (before factory resetting my laptop, long story as to why) but it looks like this (this one i have never used before)
If you head to #art-discussion there's a pinned message with the default knight. Download that and add it like any other skin.
You need to use Scarab not mod installer 2
Unless you specifically want to play Randomiser
If you're already downpatching, (which it looks like you are maybe?) then you simply need to wait for it to finish downloading, then click the orange "Out of date "box
yeah thats now finished downpatching and clicked on the orange box
ohhh! i think i worked it out now
Is the charm overhaul mod broken I can’t seem to get it to work?
Are you using another mod which changes charms?
No but seems it started to work somehow
Hey, how do i launch the 1.5 mod installer?
double click it
Ty!
guys my enemy hp bar isn't working
Hey guys is there an easy way to change the font via UABE? I'm trying to change/replace Perpetua font. Removing this file doesn't bring any difference to the game:
maybe I'm looking to the wrong direction
Is it even doable?
adding custom knight -mod doesnt do anything, i is registered as installed in menu, but doesnt appear in mod menu.
using scarab
maybe going to re-install HK if that helps
You need Satchel also
Sorry for bothering would any of you know how to fix this problem, so basically when I install the mod-installer it ask me to select my hollow knight installation path, so I select hollow knight game file and it tells me that I need the most recent stable version to run the mod. I just purchased hollow knight on pc yesterday so would I need to down patch or something,
Head to your saves folder and delete customKnight.Globalsettings.json
You're using the wrong installer
You need scarab
reinstalling satchel didnt work, trying to delete .json
Were do I get scarab?
The first pinned message
Thank you TamiJo, i can now see the custom knight in mod menu, ill try the rick morty skin now
since yesterday trying this and yet to get any skin working
black screen, little bit of blue at the top right corner.... 😦
and soft locks to that
i restart the game and now its working, thank you @limber egret for the earlier tip
I thought I got somewhere.
I downgraded my game and then changed the two DLL files. Then added the enemy randomizer mod. Got a crash report. Does anyone know how to fix this? I'm extremely interested in doing a randomizer playthrough but not too sure where I'm going wrong.
I was under the impression for the installer to work you had to use the "ModdingAPI" folder contents.
._.
Alright, hopefully that'll fix the issue. I'll verify the game files again to undo what I did.
Which installer do I use, do you know? The one from Radiance?
You can put your game back to the most recent patch and use scarab
I'm extremely interested in doing a randomizer playthrough
does this include item randomizer or no
actually doesn't matter b/c enemy rando is 1432 only
so your game has to be 1432. and you have to use a 1432 installer
what mods are there to add more items to the item randomizer? Ex. Usables Mod
that's it
oh
dunno what else you'd want. randomizer currently has options for pretty much everything that's in the game
i meant like custom items, or some random stuff like nail shop?
multiworld and item sync make some changes to randomizer so you can play with more people
but that's it
I missed that you mentioned Rando here. Ignore what I said
Stay on your 1432 patch, get mod installer 2.
@limber egret thank you very much for helping me earlier!
decoration master is a level editor
but custom bosses is not what it does
if you want custom bosses, you'll have to code your own mod
im having a hard time trying to install the API mod (and the debug mod after that) Neither are displaying in the top left hand side.
I intent to attempt speedrunning, on 1.2.2.1, have downloaded the files labled as such, created a dupe of the game and added that to steam as a non-steam game, replaced "hollow_knight_data" with the "1.2.2.1 Modding API Windows" version of the same file and replaced all duplicates, opened the game and its not indicating on the top left hand side.
I've tried searching through pinned comments but am not finding anything, this looks simple.
I'm on windows 10, steam.
Any suggestions?
(thankyou, i hope i haven't missed something dumb)
did you add the steam_appid file
?guides
i'll try this instead, was trying to follow fireb0rn's setup guide. Thanks again
that did it, thank you Mickely!
The mod installer keeps saying I need to update my copy of Hollow Knight to the latest stable version, but I'm currently up-to-date on patches. Not sure what i need to do to fix this

I need some help I am using the modinstaller except when I try to use readmes it just pulls this up I don't know how to get them to work
how do i use custom knight on 1.5
Practically the same way you use it on 1.4, is something not working?
wait
Thanks
^
please help
so what's inside each of those
is there a list of what all the mods do?
the collection of readmes. like 5 messages up
also if you're using scarab or modinstaller 2, press the arrow by the mod name
gives a short description
hey, I'm starting a multiworld, will that break the current randomizer saves that I have?
saves aren't affected if you don't open them
Right, so if I just start a new save nothing else is affected?
And I'll be able to go back to them later?
see previous sentence
the rando is really wonky for me pls help
screenshot title screen
i cant even back out lemme restart
you're probably missing vasi
the installer will auto-install required mods
disabling them causes issues
as you can see
many thank
also first pin of #modding-discussion
thanks
YOO it work now
is there going to be steam work shop?
no
hey, just wanted to let you guys know that your pins are super helpful and i appreciate you.
Part of the crew trying to do a multiworld, twice now I've input 3.96.213.176 and both times it's crashed when trying to toggle the "Multiworld: No" to "Yes." Is there something I can do to fix that on my end, or should I just figure out how to set up my own server?
did you give it a room code
do you have all the dependency mods? were there any mods that say "failed to load" on your title screen
I do have all the dependencies, yes, none of them failed to load. I didn't get to the room code step because I can't toggle Multiworld to Yes.
It didn't actually crash, it just kinda freezes for a bit and doesn't toggle
screenshot your title screen
My screen grab doesn't want to cooperate with HK but here's the upper-left
well, you have very old stuff
Huh. I didn't get an update prompt from modinstaller, where can I find updated versions of things? In the pins?
the server ip has also changed
That would do it lol
Gotcha, I'll give that a shot
so you are 6 versions behind

Are the dependencies up-to-date, then?
Just randomizer 3 and the multiworld stuff is out of date?
benchwarp might be out of date
where did you get your installer
if nexus, then you need a new one
we don't put anything there
Honestly I don't remember, I've had it for a while, but I've been using a few mods with it quite recently with no issue? I'll try the above steps and if that doesn't work then I'll go check the pins for another version of the installer
there's a pin that talks about a modinstaller auto update bug. you'll have to follow that one to make sure you get the right one and aren't redownloading a cached version
"assuming MI1"
otherwise you could just get MI2
I installed the thing and enabled what I wanted in the game but when I opened it and pressed play none if my save files will show and I can't make a new one
Any ideas?
Is there a way to contact people who have made mods before?
like, are there modders who are known for really good work
I'm wondering if it's possible to like, make a mod and what that would encompas
Alright so three of us were able to get into the server listed, we've all got 3.13--now none of the items are shuffled between our worlds, we all have the same items. I'm reasonably sure we've all followed the steps on this link (that I'm replying to)
(I'm the only one in the second image cause I just wanted a picture, we were all in and only one of us clicked start game)
how do i use debug mod? i just installed it and would like some help
F1 will pull up a lot of options
And there's a spot towards the center with 14 or so pages
how do i use the mod installer
you have installed item sync
not multiworld
item sync sync's the items between all players
Alright so honestly we've given up for the night lol, but after installing the stuff from the correct zips, we were not able to connect to the server. This is not something I can parse, is there anything obvious in here for why we were disconnected?
(Feel free to ping and I'll probably wind up checking tomorrow)
anyone know why the mods are causing my game to run super slow?
it was working fine without the mods but now with qol, debug, and benchwarp its slow as hell
wdym slow
Like the knights movements are just slow like molasses
The game froze when I went into aspid arena
I came back to Hollow Knight after some time and attempted to play a regular game.
It's stuck on Randomizer so I went to the ModInstaller to try and turn it off
Turns out there's an error and I can't access it to turn it off
I tried to look up the ModInstaller on Google and it led me straight back to the error when I tried to reinstall it.
Any chance I can recover from this?
Hi, is there a controller control guide for Hollow Point? I can switch to a gun but I can't shoot?
Which mod installer should i use I can't figure out how to mod hollowknight
so while trying to setup the custom knight mod, i ended up deleting the default knight folder. Where can I find another download for the skin or do I need to just delete the game entirely?
Scarab
That shouldn't even matter tbh
or you could reinstall the mod and it should add it back
You probably started a new save,w hich breaks hollow point, quit to menu and reload the save. And check the readme https://docs.google.com/document/d/1NmYCR8diRropqFDm9-n1aR0_XuQSHRdfxgsY4WrVmSs/edit?usp=sharing
Thank you!
It sounds like you're just trying to remove mods, if so then verify your game integrity using steam. Or if you want to use mod installer more:
- Make sure your game is closed while running the installer
- Make sure your installer isn't in a zipped folder
- Make sure your installer is on your desktop, or atleast not somewhere such as your downloads folder
If the entire game is slow, it's possible you changed the timescale using debug hotkeys
How do you get rid of all the modding components? I tried to mod hollow knight and now it won't run
Nvm I fixed it
It's likely not running because you're using the wrong installer for your game version, make sure you're either using scarab or you check the third pinned message. And verify game integrity using steam to remove mods
Yeah I was using the wrong installer. Thanks
I am unable to launch the game after installing the modinstaller
you're using the wrong installer for your game version, make sure you're either using scarab or you check the third pinned message
Screenshot your main menu please
how to screenshot 😄
On windows Windows + Shift + S and then click and drag then just paste (ctrl + V) is what i use, or you can press Windows + prtscrn
Not certain on mac/linux
ok!
im on windows
enemy randomizer doesnt work either
it says failed to load
You're missing most the dependency mods, get ModCommon, QoL, and Vasi
oh i forgor
Also may need SereCore, not actually certain what enemy rando needs
Don't forget to press the "[Load Enemy Randomizer]" button
Yes
but how do i uninstall the modinstaller
You shouldn't need to, just run scarab
oic
Hi! I'm looking for the modinstaller, but there's a lot of things pinned in the chat, does anyone know which one I should use?
Scarab, unless you plan on using randomizers or something
nope, just for put in some skins
Then scarab
this one?
Yep
thanks
My mod installer can't find the installation folder
Where did you get Hollow Knight, and which installer did you download?
so I have a problem
when I try to open the game from steam
it works
but when I try it from the desktop icon
it gives me this message
could it possibly be from the mods I use?
Just open it from steam
I know some mod installers have something that prevents cracked copies from being opened
get it but what if I wanna open it from my desktop
That seems like a problem with steam to me
I bought HK from Steam and mod installer from pinned comment
maybe I should troubleshoot steam?
I also tried reseting it
Then you are using the wrong installer. You need scarab.
Maybe
Im not a profesional but i wouldnt expect something like this from mods
I also checked my task (tasque) manager and no version of hk is open in it so
but I think the mod installer sees me not opening the game from steam and thinks Im opening a cracked copy despite me opening a shortcut from the games folder
Im pretty Sure the modinstaller doesnt do that
I think it just doesnt work with cracked copies
where do I download the modinstaller

Download the one for your version of hk

You can downpatch to use Rando if you want to. The pins have instructions for that too

i installed the modinstaller2 and i cant pick up geo anymore, how do i fix that and also i cant click on the skins in custom knight to change them
even though i downloaded hollowknight literally 15 min ago the mod-loader still claims that i have an outdated copy
What mods did you get?
i only have these enabled
is there no current randomizer that works for scarab 1.5?
where can you find what mod does what?
hollow point(gunmod) is said to be compatible according to the pastebin, but my gun doesnt fire any bullets...
nvm i just had to die and now its fixed
Read the readme there's instructions on how to set it up
The pinned messages has a document with all the readmes etc
Correct
First, make sure that your don't have any mods disabled in the "mod options" menu that's on the pause menu. (Even if a mod can be disabled there, doing so often actually breaks things).
Second, you may need to delete your Global Settings files. You can do this by navigating to your saves folder and manually deleting them all, or by downloading and running this script:

im having trouble downloading the proper mods to do a room/item randomizer. can anyone help?
use a 1432 installer
I have hk on an alternate drive. can i somehow make it work with the installer?
If i put the installer on the drive it doesnt work.
help pls.
it just cant find the gamefiles even if the installer is on drive
yeah but if i download hk onto the C drive it says i should update the game to the latest version (wich i did)
steam of course
so it is finding your game
you're just on the wrong patch for that installer

1st and 3rd pins
Thanks!
i discovered another problem
this downloads to halfpoint everytime i launch the game and the game starts but crashes instantly
still wrong installer for the patch you're on
oh
Okay so I’m on patch 1.4.3.2. Whenever I try to download the Vasi mod, this is the message I get
there's a pin for that
Thanks
.
i used the modinstaller 2 and the same thing happens still
yes, modinstaller 2 is not a 1.5 installer
your game is 1.5
and you're using a 1.4.3.2 installer
your game patch and installer have to match
i am new to modding i dont know how to mod very well but want to mod hollow knight am i able to have some help in the matter i tryed to use the mod thing before but it didnt work im once again new to modding and need some help in the matter to get debug mod installed to fuck around again i am NEW TO MODDING never have modded anything
i was given help by mickely they didnt help me tho they just told me to do 10000 things i didnt know how to do
Check the pins, yo 
k
You'll have to explain what you actually have issues with.
Generally speaking, it's just "download Scarab, and then use Scarab"
their game is 1432
That's not Scarab. That's the 1432 mod Installer.
we went over this last time. they needed to reset the installer
Oh lol
im gettin scarab
Well no
Don't get Scarab if you're using 1432
You said that you were new to modding like 10x, so I assumed you hadn't don't anything to your game yet
Scarab is for current patch only
just use installer 2
oh no im in the uh fuck what is it crying elevator?
elevators
i dont remember the name
uhh OH
city of tears
Yeah, mod installer 2 tends to have less issues for people
they were getting the MI1 bug where it was still giving the "most recent stable patch" error even after downpatching.
i hope
so I told them to reset the installer
This script will automatically reset any mod installers: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/879138066961424405/890824593848299550/HKModInstaller_Reset.bat
and they got stuck there
then yeah, use scarab
double click it
i open zip files in rar
you mean winrar
yes what do i click now?
extract to?
desktop
ok
extract it to here?
sure
uh that sure makes me feel unsure about this now
okay
@pliant lantern i trust you the most here what do i do?
So that the modding community discord would be helpful is wrong? cuz it seems like that comin from mickely
Wot?
Mickely knows pretty damn well what they're talking about lol. They may be blunt, but they're telling you what you need to do.
Do i extract it to here yes or no does it fuck with my pc or not its a yes or no dude
why would it fuck with your pc
it's just extracting a file
i would add an extra folder to the extraction to contain it more
and keep the desktop a bit cleaner
but this also works
hence.... "sure"
run the exe
okay
.
what do i do now?
yes the one on my desktop i put into a file
wdym put into a file
folder sorry
did you put everything that was extracted into that folder?
yes im pretty sure
or did i miss like half the fucking thing
mickely ya good?
@real jacinth?
you ok dude?
sorry i just wanted some help im tryna get this done so i can show it to my friends tomorrow
so you have a full day
you're fine
looks like you extracted all the files
where is your game install at
right click the game -> properties -> local files -> browse
and screenshot the window it brings up
no
hello, i just got the game on pc (console player) and i'm trying to install mods but it keeps telling me it can't find hollow knight
got it on pc from where
i opened a file into kings pass and exited thinking it might have to do with save file
steam
just purchased
on windows 10
how i get the mods
the radiance.host wasn't able to find hollow knight
where can i find that
Check the pinned messages for more information - https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/187137504393035776/823796522751623168/unknown.png
everything is in pins
alright, thanks
does the newest version support whatever the skins mod is?
since thats all i care about as of rn
yes
i still need a hand mickely i rlly just want the mods for like inf geo
is there an installation guide i'm missing?
download mod installer, extract it, run the installer program
then click what you want from the list
so windows.zip?
why it says the stable version or current
mickely help i still dont know how to get my mod thing to work
i'm still trying to think what to do with you. the easiest would be to uninstall your game and install it again not on your desktop

default install path would look more like this
uh if i uninstall the game do i keep my save files?
program files (x86)/steam/steamapps/common/hollowknight
your saves are in another spot
so it should. but you'd want to copy them just to be sure
?
why is everyone getting this today
no clue
read the pins. 3rd pin for that message
like hollowknight
what's the window behind
do i need data or something
where is it
where is what
put it all on desktop
close scarab first or just move it
will do
where can i get the guide
what guide
?
the "windows" folder is now on my desktop (thats what the folder with scarab is called) same issue
does it let you pick a file path when you press ok
yes
so tell it where your game is
what did you select
and i dont have a folder with "hollow_knight_data"
ill go grab it
in that folder
that's not your game
which is empty
that's your saves
depends where you installed it
i let steam handle that
right click the game in steam -> properties -> local files -> browse
that's where it is
yes
lemme try and find that in my files
through scarab
hollow knight data?
in the folder or here
just the hollow knight folder
yes
alright, then its just click install and enable and we're good?
just install
alright, sweet thanks
enable will auto check when it's done installing
coolio
run the scarab exe
i did the same thing
that doesnt help me at all
if you click ok a few times it brings up a selection window right?
u able to just explane it?
where do i get skins
from pins
that's the window that pops up, so now navigate to where you just installed your game
give me a sec
if you don't remember, you can right click it in steam again -> properties -> local files -> browse
and select the hollow knight folder
click the installed box

gahgddtukadsgsgadsjasjkgda

HOLY SHIT THANKS FOR THE HELP SORRY I WAS RUDE LAST TIME LMFAOOO
yo I need your help pls. I'm currently using debug mod, qol, benchwarp and randomzier. When moving my switch controller my mouse is moving aswell... is there an option to turn that off?
aight thank you
my mod thing says im not in the correct version
read the 3rd pin
pins said try downloading beta worked for me
btw thanks for the helpful pins im excited to start the rando now :)
hi
i need help
I downloaded hollow knight from the xbox game pass and i dont know how to install mods since the game data seems to be hidden/encrypted
is there anything i can do to use mods on this version of the game?
no
sick
is the randomizer only on older versions?
yes
aight
is the multiworld mod on one of the mod launchers?
is there any tutorial or guide on how to play multiplayer hk with room random¿
Afaik MultiWorld isn't on any installer.
John the Speedrun server (link in #randomizer pins) , and look through the recent Rando Announcements for the current MultiWorld mods
QoL = Quality of Life
It's a mod that makes general improvements on gameplay, and makes a lot of things act like 1.2.2.1
For general mod info, check the ReadMe Collection in #modding-discussion pins
Hello, I'm new here and I have a question, I downloaded scarab but it seems the item randomizer mod isn't in there, is there a way I can add it?
no
Rando is only available on 1432 at this time.
Check the third pin
for instructions on going to that version, and then use the other mod installers
it's not on there b/c it's not ported to 1.5 yet
Ah ok gotcha, that does mean I can play it on older versions still correct?
Okay, thank you 😄
Could anyone tell me what the itemsync mod does? I am seeing it mentioned in conjunction with multiworld a bit but nothing about exactly what it does or doesn't do
After i installed the mod installer and tried to enable a mod it wouldnt let me open hollow knight unless i uninstalled and reinstalled the game
what should i do
make sure the installer being used matches the game patch you're on
syncs inventories between multiple players
how do i check that?
eg: if player 1 finds claw, claw will be given to player 2
Gotcha, thanks
the first pin
So I've installed Scarab on 1.5, however I can't get the Randomizer mod 3.0 to appear in the mod menu. I've moved the folder into the same folder as the other enabled mods.
I have Benchwarp and BenchwarpFix running properly, activated from the mod menu.
so my scarab mods folder looks like this
Rando isn't on 1.5 yet
ignore the comic sans that's just me trashing my OS
oh ok thanks
any way to revert without destroying my vanilla saves?
To play Rando, you need to downpatch to 1432.
Instructions are in the 4rd pin 
Saves aren't affected between 1432 and 1.5
thank you! :)
So, a bunch of my mods are just saying "failed to load, check modlog.txt"
Anyone know what that's about?
you're probably missing the dependency
You’re probably either installing mods for the wrong version (unlikely if you used a mod installer) or missing dependency mods
What's the dependency? I'm new to mods, sorry if it's a dumb question :p
A dependency is another mod a mod depends on to work properly
what you're missing depends on what you're using
most likely modcommon, vasi, or serecore
Ex: frogcore, modcommon, SFCore, Serecore, weavercore, satchel, Vasi
just install all of them and see if it works
or satchel if 1.5, yeah
you got snailed twice
thats sad
type faster fool

I also typed longer messages but I guess that doesn’t contribute
smh you dont type in 200 wpm?
So where would I go to install this? Is there a link in the pins?
Ah, alright I got it, thanks 👍
does anybody know about an infinite geo mod? that would be very helpful and I cannot seem to find anything on scarab that clearly says infinite geo
debug
thx
umm i installed debug and it says that it could not sync cloud and that data may not be saved, is there a way around this?
- stop pinging me
- just press ok
and probably turn off cloud saves with steam anyways
my friend and i are playing hk multiplayer but he cannot hit anything
unfortunate
can u download skins without mod?
no
why
but is there any way to change the skins without modding?
sure, if you want to package your own as unity asset bundles
Yes but it’s extremely tough and technically mod’s your game anyways
^
oh
anyways, do some of you know the file that is meant to be the "skin"?
one of the asset bundles
okay
or multiple of them
i have a question
is there any specific reason because mods doesnt work on pirate hollow knight?
yes
whats it
^
same thing
yea i know
another question
does proggress saves when u buy the game ( previusly having the pirate one )
No
yes
Wow
im comfuced
yes, my mick is holy
exact
truu
