[agile cape]

i have bought hollow knight on steam like almost 1 year ago (it was on other pc) then i buyed a new pc and wanted to install some mods on the game, but i can't because the mod installer says that it was unable to found local files (it has worked on my old pc)

[bleak hedge]

I might not know the solution to your issue, but my question is have you tried running the game on your new pc?

without any mods

[agile cape]

yeah

[bleak hedge]

ok, sorry, someone else can probably help you.

[native ice]

Which installer do you have?

[twin mango]

@wheat orchid could probably help

[agile cape]

idk if there is a specific name for it but i installed it on radiance.host

[twin mango]

i think they're good with mods

[native ice]

Then you've downloaded the 1.4.3.2 but you're likely on game version 1.5

[native ice]

Download Scarab, or check the third pinned message

[agile cape]

ok, lemme see it

do i have to downgrade the game version or something?

[native ice]

That or download Scarab, which is the mod installer for 1.5

[agile cape]

sure, tysm

[vivid yew]

When I click "Disable API" in Scarab, it crashes. I see this error in a log file:

System.IO.IOException: Cannot create a file when that file already exists.

I suspect this might be related to resetting Scarab by deleting the appdata/HKModInstaller folder while mods were still installed. I'll use steam to integretize(?) the files and try again

[native ice]

Disabling the API just disables mods, you can get the same effect by verifying your game integrity, also make sure that scarab is on your desktop, not in a zipped file, is ran as administrator, and is only used when the game is closed

[native ice]

This shouldn't matter, if you just run Scarab again and make sure it's pathed to the right spot it should be fine

[jagged swan]

Any help with scarab?
I ran it and the window doesn't show anything, then it closes after a minute or two

[vivid yew]

I had done all that except for run as admin, which was a good idea but did not solve the issue unfortunately

[native ice]

Why are you trying to disable the api? To remove mods or?

[vivid yew]

exactly! I was able to toggle the api to switch between modded and vanilla. It is now not working anymore. I'll try rebooting the pc

[native ice]

I'm really not sure, mine does the same thing.

[jagged swan]

:(

[native ice]

make sure that scarab is on your desktop, not in a zipped file, and is ran as administrator

[jagged swan]

Ty I'll try

[low crane]

where is the mod installer pls?

[orchid parcel]

is anybody willing to help me im stuck in a randomizer

i need to explogo idk how

[native ice]

Did you enable spicy skips?

[orchid parcel]

no

shade mild and spirit

im kinda stuck doe

[native ice]

Then i don't think you need to

[orchid parcel]

idk where to go

its not room rando

[native ice]

That's kind of the point of a randomizer, there's also a map mod if you're very confused, or you can check your spoiler log if you've given up, and #randomizer may be a better place to ask for figuring out where to go

[orchid parcel]

i didnt know that was a thing thanks

[lavish trench]

is there a thread with the description of all the mods in the scarab installer?

[tulip timber]

How do I get mod with out mod installer?

It a skin

[feral nimbus]

which channel is modinstaller pinned in

oh found it

[primal flax]

Hey all the enemies have been killed and it isn’t opening. A little help?

[native ice]

Nope, but you can click the names of the mods on scarab to get a brief description, and many mods that are on 1.5 were on 1.4 and you can find their readmes and descriptions in the pinned readme doc

[lavish trench]

ah ok ty

[native ice]

Is this a enemy randomizer?

Or is it just vanilla with custom knight?

[primal flax]

Yup.

[native ice]

Pause the game, go to the options menu, select "Enemy Randomizer" from below the back button, and then enable no-clip

[native ice]

Why? If it's because you can't find the skin/skin mod, the mod is custom knight, and the skins are in 2 google drives in the pinned messages, here: #archived-modding-help message

[tulip timber]

No I just no mod installer

See

[native ice]

What?

Is it not working?

Or do you not know where tof ind it?

[tulip timber]

Ok

I am

Just not using the mod installer

[vocal spear]

Hey, I'm not getting achievements on a modded install of the game
mods: hkmp and custom knight
version: 1.5 and using the scarab modinstaller
is there any way to fix this?

[native ice]

Achievements should work fine as long as you're not using GOG, steam and in-game achievements will work. Are you certain you've met the achievement requirement? Are you doing it in multiplayer?

[vocal spear]

nope it is not in multiplayer

i have the mod installed, but its not on rn

I should have gotten the achievement "neglect"

which iirc requires you to not save zote by the time you get to deepnest

wait wait wait I'm dumb

sorry I didn't know you had to go back to where zote first appears to get the achievement

my b, thanks

[half elbow]

so i got a question

im trying to help my friend download some mods

but for some reason when we browse his local files

its empty

so modinstaller doesnt detect it

and he cant install mods

anyone know a fix?

or maybe hwy the hollow knight files arent in "browse local files"?

[native ice]

I assume you're talking about the steam properties, browse local files button?

[half elbow]

yeah

[native ice]

What folder does it take them too?

[half elbow]

the right folder, but it's empty

[native ice]

Does the game run?

[half elbow]

yeah

we tried backiong up the files and then moving it into the folder

then reopened modinstaller

still said there wasnt any hk detected

[native ice]

If you press "browse" is there nothing there? or is it just when you're selecting a file path

[half elbow]

wait here talk to him

[spiral grail]

Hi

so yeah I go into my local files

theres nothing

so I verify intergrity

and back them up

and copy the backup into the original hollow knight file

and when I try to use that

it doesnt work

[native ice]

Are you selecting the Hollow Knight folder in the mod installer?

[spiral grail]

yes

the one steam provides

[native ice]

Can you show some screenshots maybe?

[spiral grail]

sure sure

if u look at the top left folder there is the folder that steam provides me

wait nvm it worked

thanks for the help tho!

[lapis leaf]

guys how do i install the mod

i cant find a link for it

i pirated the game so i cant get the mod installer to find the location of my hollow knight what do i do?

[dim loom]

Hey guys, I tried to run the mod installer after downloading it and it keeps giving me this error message when I try to open it. My game is completely up to date.

can anyone give me a hand?

[frigid fern]

how can i use the debug mod to like spawn bosses and stuff like dat

[merry pier]

You need to downpatch to 1.4.3.2, look at the pins

[frigid fern]

anyone ??

and which is better scarab or modinstaller

[novel bronze]

mod installer

[novel bronze]

afaik you can only use debug to duplicate enemies, not just spawn any wherever

[frigid fern]

oh

[frigid fern]

why?

what are the pros of modinstaller

[novel bronze]

it has a lot more mods

most mods don't work with 1.5

which scarab is on

and i think most scarab mods are on mod installer but not the other way around

[frigid fern]

hmm

isee

[novel bronze]

and if you find a mod that isn't on scarab or mod installer, you probably need 1.4.3.2 for it (the version mod installer is on)

[frigid fern]

isee

but i can't use modinstaller if i don't have my game installed on the steam diractory

[novel bronze]

why isn't it on that

[frigid fern]

btw what folder does modinstaller need

like the hollow knight data?

or what

[novel bronze]

mods

hollow knight
hollow knight data
managed
mods

should be something like that

[frigid fern]

oh

[novel bronze]

mods will not work if you pirated the game

[frigid fern]

yea i did that but scarab works fine?

why>

?

[novel bronze]

mod installer mods wont work ig

also its overall just better to buy the game if you can

[frigid fern]

i am poor

[novel bronze]

if you can, understandable if you can't. but I can't make mod installer work on pirated versions

[frigid fern]

isee

and yea what is the diffrence between modinstaller and modinstaller 2

is it just the UI

or what?

??

@novel bronze

[novel bronze]

i have no idea

[frigid fern]

oh ok

and how do i use the bench wrap mod

[novel bronze]

you click the things at the top of the screen and it shows you a list of benches and you click the one you want to go to and the hit warp

[limber egret]

Stop posting on this channel. Pirating the game is a cause for being banned.

[frigid fern]

i am sorry i really want to buy the game and support the developers but i just can't get enough money :(

:C

[novel bronze]

is it?

[limber egret]

Literally yes. Discussing pirated material can get you banned from discord.

[last kindle]

yo, does anyone know where the file of sprites are for npcs and bosses?

^ not for the knight thou

[rustic coyote]

my modinstaller says my api is out of date, does anyone know a solution?

[limber egret]

Click the orange box

Wat

Wait

Which installer is this and which patch of hollow knight are you on?

You might be about to make a bad decision

[rustic coyote]

it's modinstaller 2

[limber egret]

Which HK patch are you on?

[rustic coyote]

the latest one

downloaded it this morning

[limber egret]

You are using the wrong installer

[rustic coyote]

ahh well that explains a lot

[limber egret]

You are on patch 1.5

Download the installer for that patch

[rustic coyote]

thx!

[last kindle]

how do I make a mod that changes the sprites of npcs etc.?

[limber egret]

#archived-modding-development

Step 1) Learn C#

Step 2) Read the pinned messages in that channel

[last kindle]

welp, time to learn C#

thanks @limber egret

[native ice]

Wait, doesn't 1.5 Custom knight have swapper which lets you do that?

[last kindle]

does it?

[limber egret]

Yo what?

I thought that was supposed to be CK+ functionality?

[native ice]

Well, it was atleast for enemies, i'm not sure if it works for like, merchants, but I know that there was a demo that changed THK sprites

[last kindle]

ooo

thanks for the info

[novel bronze]

Hello, can we use Custom Knight with hkmp ?

And make other see our skin ?

[covert pike]

is it possible to edit the sprite for the enemy hp bar mod?

[covert pike]

i believe hkmp has a custom skin inplemented in it

[native ice]

Yes, there's a tutorial for doing so here: #archived-modding-help message

[novel bronze]

Thank you !

[limber egret]

You can. You need to either find one online or you can simply edit the files for the original one

[native ice]

I think a few custom knight skins come with some, I believe Daughter of Hallownest has one

[rustic coyote]

another question, I got scarab this time, but the benchwarp mod shows up while my randomizer3 mod doesn't, any idea why this one is happening?

[limber egret]

Randomiser is not available for scarab

[merry pier]

Yes scarab doesn’t support randomiser yet, so you have to use mod installer 2 and the corresponding patch (aka 1.4)

[limber egret]

?pins Check out the third pinned message

Hi, just double checking, no way to get mods on switch right?

[merry pier]

Yup

[slim flower]

dammit

[novel bronze]

ello
I'd like some tech support please

[lean viper]

Does anybody else have this problem

[real jacinth]

You selected the wrong folder

[lean viper]

i've tried both

[real jacinth]

Tried both what

[lean viper]

Folders

[real jacinth]

Which ones

[lean viper]

The ones stated in the prompt

[real jacinth]

What prompt

[lean viper]

The invalid game path

photo i sent

[real jacinth]

That's not a prompt

And you're missing a very important word

"containing"

[lean viper]

Ive alrady screen shared the process with a modder on this server

[real jacinth]

You should be selecting the folder one level above hollow_knight_data

[real jacinth]

Read the pins

[lean viper]

he hadn't encounterd it before

[real jacinth]

3rd pin

Your installer version and game patch are mismatched

[lean viper]

i have the latest patch tho

[real jacinth]

I'm not talking to you

[lean viper]

oh ok

So no fix probably?

[real jacinth]

Screenshot exactly what path you're picking

[lean viper]

ok

and ive tried both payths

paths*

[novel bronze]

Hey, where can I get help on game bugs on macOS?

[lean viper]

@real jacinth

[real jacinth]

Well neither of those is right

Like I said, "containing"

You need to be selecting "hollow knight"

One folder level higher

[lean viper]

!Downloads is empty

[real jacinth]

So? I didn't say anything about that folder

[lean viper]

What folder do u mean then?

[real jacinth]

.

[lean viper]

ok then, what do you mean by folder level

[real jacinth]

Like one folder up

You are inside the hk folder, which is inside the games folder

Select the hk folder

Which is what "contains" the hk data folders

[lean viper]

could i screen share it to you

[real jacinth]

No

[flint crest]

where can i downlaod mods

[real jacinth]

pins

from the installers

[real jacinth]

select this folder

[lean viper]

But i'm selecting the folder called Hollow Knight, which is the only one i have. Inside of it is no .exe just the data folders. And if i select the folder it just says invalid hollow knight path. Select the folder containing hollow_knight data

[flint crest]

found it thank u

[lean viper]

im slecting that folder

exact same one

same message

[real jacinth]

in your screenshot you're not

you're selecting hollow knight data

[lean viper]

well im doing it now

[real jacinth]

like the bottom says

[flint crest]

what does this mean

[real jacinth]

it means your game install wasn't automatically detected

so you have to tell it where your game is

[flint crest]

how the arrow doesnt work

[real jacinth]

click ok

should bring up a selection window

[flint crest]

ye

il search thnak you again

[lean viper]

same thing

[real jacinth]

go up a level

and select it while you're in the games folder

[lean viper]

same thing aswell

even though i select where u told me to

[flint crest]

wich

[real jacinth]

hollow knight

up one level

[flint crest]

i get this is it woking now

[real jacinth]

then this spot isn't where your game is

[real jacinth]

yes

[flint crest]

thank you

[lean viper]

where else could it be

[real jacinth]

dunno

wherever you installed it

[lean viper]

i checked the install location

[real jacinth]

you can see exactly where with galaxy

also, you having two data folders is very wrong

there should only be 1

so you've done something extra

[lean viper]

i promise i haven't already uninstalled it once aswell

[real jacinth]

i didn't ask if you uninstalled it

[lean viper]

it's weird

when i go to the game file through clicking just files, not through scarab. It shows a folder containing more files, even if it's the same file path

[wheat orchid]

Through scarab it’s searching for folders

[real jacinth]

that's how folder selection prompts work

b/c you're not selecting files

you're selecting folders

[lean viper]

and what about the two data files

[real jacinth]

it's still wrong

you should delete everything manually and verify file integrity with galaxy

[wheat orchid]

(Apparently this is normal for gog according to sfg)

[lean viper]

so uninstall manually then fix game files

[real jacinth]

i have a gog copy and have never had two data folders

[lean viper]

ice tried repairing it already

[real jacinth]

so....

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[wheat orchid]

Huh, sfg said it’s data folder is Hollow Knight_data since 1.5

[flint crest]

is it normal that skins take 30 mb or am I donwloading something wrong

[real jacinth]

you're downloading the skin

so yes, that's normal

[flint crest]

ok

[wheat orchid]

A bunch of large images

[real jacinth]

so sfg probably just has the old folder too then

[wheat orchid]

Huh, kool

[lean viper]

what's sfg?

[real jacinth]

a human

[wheat orchid]

A user

[real jacinth]

My use of gog was mostly pre-1221. so "maybe" it uses 2 folders now, but I doubt it

probably just leftovers from older patches

[wheat orchid]

Yeah

[flint crest]

i think i did thank you Mickely

[lean viper]

so mines basically f'd?

[real jacinth]

nobody said that

I told you what to do

delete everything manually, then verify game files with galaxy

after that's done, which should take awhile, screenshot the game folder

[lean viper]

does it risk messing up your files if you do it manuallyy

[flint crest]

my hollowknight isnt opening is it because scarab is running?

[real jacinth]

no

to both of you

[flint crest]

so i messed up along the way

[real jacinth]

do you see a loading bar

[flint crest]

i was suposed to drop skin in custom knight folder right

no

i also opened task mangager but hk isnt opening

do i need to restat r smthn

[real jacinth]

not likely

[flint crest]

il try doing via steam

[lean viper]

i deleted everything in the folder

just waiting for the repair

[flint crest]

steam aint opening either

should I try restarting

[real jacinth]

steam itself isn't opening?

[flint crest]

yea i think its my pc doing weird

[real jacinth]

steam not opening has nothing to do with mods

[flint crest]

well then il restart see what it does

[real jacinth]

there were like 2 steam updates in the last few days

might just be grabbing those

[lean viper]

the files fixed now

[flint crest]

nah my pc the restart thingie workded

[lean viper]

Scarab says re-open the installer to use your new path

custom knight enabled

lets go

[flint crest]

what i dont know where knight is$

nvm found

thank you Mickely

[lean viper]

now how do i get the skins ingame

what folder do i drag them to

Thank you mickely, for being patient

[real jacinth]

hollow_knight_data/managed/mods/custom knight/skins/[skin folder]/[skin PNG files]

[lean viper]

the swap file

?

[real jacinth]

what

you downloaded skins right? so you unzip them, and put them in the skins folder at the path I wrote

and the folder structure of the skins should be like how I wrote it

[real jacinth]

yes. because that's stored in your save file

so you have to turn it off with debug

uninstalling the mod just locks you out of toggling that

[inland sluice]

how to use mod installer?

[limber egret]

The mod changes your save to give you infinite jump

Disabling mods won't change that

[novel bronze]

why does the modinstaller tell me to update my game if its on the lastest version??

oh and how do I do that

yea

ty I think it should work now

Hey guys so I just got hollow knight on steam and bought it for my friend (we'll be back for the multiplayer) but the https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe isn't picking up my file location and I don't know which file to select in the steam folders, can someone please help, I'm windows btw

[slate stag]

99% you can just stick the mod installer into your game folder

that's what my friend did

[real jacinth]

there's no reason to do that

is it giving you and error when you launch it?

what are you selecting for the file path

and did you downpatch your game already

[novel bronze]

No it's just saying that's not the right folder, I tried the hollow_knight_Data

[real jacinth]

that's not the right folder

[novel bronze]

No I haven't

[real jacinth]

you need to select "hollow knight"

the folder above the data one

[novel bronze]

Thank you

[real jacinth]

and that installer won't work anyway if you haven't downpatched yet

Do I need to downpatch for the mutliplayer mod?

[fallow pond]

Hi everyone, i am having trouble with the mod installer. Old versions give the correct popup asking where hollow knight is, but the newest version just creates a file AU.exe in the same folder and does nothing else. Anyone know how to fix this?

[merry pier]

What installer are you using ?

[fallow pond]

this one: https://www.nexusmods.com/hollowknight/mods/9?tab=description

[real jacinth]

Don't get it from nexus

[fallow pond]

right haha

[real jacinth]

We put nothing there

So what you have is a very very old version

[fallow pond]

so get the one from github in this thread then?

[real jacinth]

If you want the 1.5 one

Otherwise download from pins

How do you get started on a translation mod? Are there any tools for editing the game's text? (Sorry if this is common knowledge, I couldn't find this info anywhere)

How would I use hkmp with multiworld? Do I both need to set up a multiworld server and a hkmp server?

Depends what you mean, if you install a mod and then load an old save, then usually the effects of the mod will apply, some won't and require new saves, such as randomizer.

[pale brook]

crap mods are disabled

[native ice]

What?

[native ice]

If you're looking to translate the game to a different language, you can use this mod. https://github.com/SFGrenade/LanguageSupport/blob/master/ReadMe.md

Can you provide more details please? Like what game version you're on, what installer you have, where you purchased the game from, and how do you know they're not working?

[hoary wolf]

thank u!

[errant pond]

uh so where's appdata

[pale brook]

I have ModInstaller, I'm on windows, got the game from steam, on the correct version, and I have the installer on right now and all the mods active but when i load up the game the mods don't turn on

like its just vannila

[native ice]

Press Windows + R and type in %appdata%

[errant pond]

oh that makes sense thx

[warm dove]

I couldn't find that path

[native ice]

on the correct version
What version specifically

[pale brook]

1.4.3.2

[native ice]

Okay, if you go into the options menu, is there a "Mods" tab?

and what instaler i have to dowload

[native ice]

Scarab

[warm dove]

i cant find the .. paste

[native ice]

I assume you mean %appdata%\..\

The .. means that you need to go up a file path, so after %appdata% you're in roaming, go up to appData

[warm dove]

ok

ah

im in hollow knight paste

but i cant find the saves

[native ice]

The saves will be called user#.dat where # represents the save slot position, 1 being the top and 4 being the bottom. Only the one called user#.dat is important, if there's any with anything after the .dat, then you can ignore it

[warm dove]

ok

anyone know how to do modded on a ps4 or is that not a thing

[neat tree]

Im 99% sure you cant mod on console

[rigid wave]

okay

[native ice]

It sounds like you're basically there, just make sure Scarab is unzipped, open the folder, and run the Scarab app. Are you having a specific problem?

[novel bronze]

help xd

the same error

[native ice]

Where did you buy the game from?

[novel bronze]

steam

but now with this skin

[native ice]

I assume you mean you're still getting this error?

[novel bronze]

yes

[native ice]

Go to your steam library > right click HK > properties > local files > verify integrity of game files > wait for that to finish > run Scarab > select Update API in the bottom left corner

[novel bronze]

what is this

[native ice]

That's a readme

If you're asking what the modding api is, it's what makes all the mods work

[novel bronze]

yes but don't let me to update the API

[native ice]

Try running the game

[hybrid linden]

I just downloaded a ton of custom knight mods and now my text looks like this, what do I do?

[native ice]

Uninstall arts mod

[native ice]

Verify your game integrity again, and then launc it and screenshot the main menu

[hybrid linden]

Thanks so much

[novel bronze]

but i don't enter the game

its crash the game

[native ice]

It shouldn't after you verify game integrity

[novel bronze]

the game crashes every time I enter and every time I enter the error appears first and then it crashes I don't even see the main menu

[novel bronze]

but how i verify?

[native ice]

If you followed my early instructions you already did once ^

Just ignore the scarab part

[hybrid linden]

I added the custom skins folders to the custom knight folder in Hollow knight but they aren’t appearing on the in game menu.

[native ice]

Were they unzipped?

[hybrid linden]

No

[native ice]

You need to unzip them then

You can't mod any console unfortunately

cant find it in the list

[inner pewter]

ok cool

[native ice]

It's probably not unexplainable, and just describe the issue, that's what this channel is for, don't need to go to dm's

[hybrid linden]

When I’ve extracted the folders do I delete the zipped ones?

[native ice]

Yea, doesn't matter too much but no reason not too

[stark fiber]

so basically i used it at the start and was completely fine mainly used it for custom knight but for some reason when i tried to add more skins specifically sapphire (idk if that matters) it messed it all up and makes it where i cant load my save data and doesnt show any of the mods that are in use. like its not in the top left how it normally is. it also doesnt do the load bar like it used to. so now whenever i try to mod it doesnt let me go in game cause its an infinite load and doesnt load the mods either. ive tried uninstalling both the game and the modinstaller. ive tried verifying the integrity of the game files and have done all the basics. it does the same thing when i take out all my mods too when its just the api too. hopefully this helps explaining it but theres not enough words in the dictionary to explain it

[native ice]

^

[stark fiber]

omg lol

[hybrid linden]

A lot of these skins don’t seem to do anything, I clicked on them and they make the character flash but they don’t change anything? The only one that has worked for me is crimson knight

[pliant lantern]

That means that you didn't install then correctly, or you're missing a dependency

[native ice]

This message has a list of fixes

[stark fiber]

yo so it says to delete some of the mods but there are other mods that are there too should i delete those to

[native ice]

You can, it shouldn't change much. But not necessary

[stark fiber]

ok

thx man

what causes the problem so i can avoid it

[native ice]

The globalsettings file gets messed up, not really much you can do to prevent it but it should happen again unless you reinstall mods, then it might

[amber owl]

After I installed Hollow Point for 1.5 my health and soul are broken even after disabling it

[native ice]

That's normal

Hollow Point changes the way healing works, read it's README for more information. If you want to fix it then: #archived-modding-help message

[hybrid linden]

When I go into the files I can see all the sprites fine so what’s wrong with them?

[amber owl]

thanks!

[silk socket]

wondering why rando isnt in scarab (on mac)

[native ice]

Because it's a very very complicated mod and it takes time to update, and I believe they're also adding some extra stuff

[silk socket]

just wanted to make sure it wasnt a client side issue ty

[native ice]

For now, if you'd like to use it, you can go back to 1.4.3.2 and download mod installer 1 or 2, the third pin covers how to downpatch

[silk socket]

oh also asciicamera isnt working is this client side or known bug

[hybrid linden]

How does going to the PNG files actually do anything, do I have to add the PNG’s to the custom knight file?

[native ice]

The pngs have to be in the right spot, sometimes there's an extra folder in the path that causes it to not work

[mossy smelt]

[real jacinth]

Which mod are you curious about

[mossy smelt]

A friend was having issues with QoL mod before figuring out they didn't have vasi installed

Just curious so in the future I know how to find them

[real jacinth]

There's not like a list anywhere

The installers will auto install dependencies

Based on the modlinks.xml it looks at to know where the mods are at

[mossy smelt]

This? Is this not for 1.5?
https://github.com/hk-modding/modlinks/blob/main/ModLinks.xml

[real jacinth]

Modcommon, serecore, and vasi will cover 90% of mods

Satchel for 1.5

There's different modlinks for the different installers

[mossy smelt]

Is this the 1.4.3.2 one?
https://github.com/ricardosouzag/ModInstaller/blob/master/modlinks.xml

[real jacinth]

Probably

[mossy smelt]

thanks!

[severe elm]

is there a mod that lets me speed up the timescale of the game? I am going for 130% speed anyrad but debug mod doesn't seem to work

is there any reason a certain mod wouldnt be working? I have all the nessicary mods on like seercore, vasi, sf core, but it wont run the infinite notches mod. it can run other mods like benchwarp and custom knight but not infi notches

Debug does. Use the + and - on Numpad, by default

I have heard from others that it resets immediately after raking damage, has that been fixed? Also what does it increment by (i.e. 10%, 20%, etc)

If I delete the folder that’s in the way will it remove the PNG’s?

[red pond]

got an animation bug when recieving the teleporting dream nail while using custom knight (like instead of the correct frames it was random chunks of the sprite sheet). Wasn't actually using a custom skin for the knight but I did have custom knight installed and enabled

thats the only time its happened, which is odd, because you'd think if the sprite sheet offsets were wrong in one area they'd be wrong for at least two areas, if not all of it

[pliant lantern]

Using Dreamgate is a different sheet

[red pond]

whats odd is that it doesn't happen when using dreamgate

[pliant lantern]

That being said, the default sheets should be fine

[red pond]

only during the animation when you first receive the dreamgate dreamnail

[pliant lantern]

Oh, when physically getting the nail

That's odd

[red pond]

haven't beat the game yet, so maybe theres another area where it will happen, I wonder what spritesheet is used for that specific sequence

the spritesheets for the in game knight is surprisingly low quality, like theres some pretty noticable compression artefacts when I browse the images in the custom knight folders. Surprised I don't notice them in game

[pliant lantern]

The power of shaders

[pliant lantern]

Most likely that one is on knight.png

I'm not familiar with that being a common issue though

[placid nymph]

when I try to start hollow knight it says that I dont have permission to open the application, this is on mac by the way

I bought it on steam and uhh

no error just goes like sorry accidentally crashed

[native ice]

Go to your steam library > right click HK > properties > local files > verify integrity of game files

[vast pendant]

WOA

this sorcercy

holy

tysm tysm

[native ice]

That'll get rid of the important ones, then if you want you can press the "Open Mods" button in the bottom left of Scarab, and delete the files for the mods before redownloading them off scarab

[vast pendant]

ohhh

okok tysm tysm

holy crap it worked

Fwiw I don't think you can change it after the fact. But for the future.

Anyway what is the problem you're actually facing?

You have changed to patch 1432
Opened mod installer 2
What does it show?

[nimble root]

the normal home of the installer

i select the mods

enabled it

[limber egret]

Did you see anything called "modding API"

[nimble root]

i open hollow knight, and there aren't the mods

wait

[limber egret]

Is your mod installer in your downloads folder?

[nimble root]

yes

[limber egret]

Move it to your desktop

[nimble root]

ok

now?

there is the modding API

it is enabled

[limber egret]

Does it say out of date?

[nimble root]

no

[limber egret]

Okay screenshot your hollow knight main menu

[limber egret]

You're certain you only have one copy of hollow knight on your computer?

[nimble root]

yeah

[limber egret]

And your hollow knight was closed when you were using the installer?

[nimble root]

yes

[native ice]

Can you open the options menu and tell me if there's a mods tab?

[nimble root]

there isn't

[native ice]

Then I'd suggest trying this, #archived-modding-help message

[nimble root]

ok

[jagged condor]

Where is the mod installer 2 supposed to go? It wont work for me, I installed the mods but they aren't showing up when playing Hollow Knight and I feel like that's cus i chose the wrong path.

Yes i did try #archived-modding-help message

[limber egret]

What patch are you on?

[jagged condor]

The reccomended one

[limber egret]

Mod installer 2 should be on your desktop, ideally

[jagged condor]

Ah

[limber egret]

Do you mean 1432?

[jagged condor]

yeye

[limber egret]

Do you see "modding API" in the list at all?

[limber egret]

Literally any of them

[jagged condor]

Nope

[limber egret]

Have you scrolled down to the letter m

[jagged condor]

oh wait

oh wait

ye i see it

its enabled

[limber egret]

Does it say installed also?

[jagged condor]

[weary sand]

how tf do I get mods

[carmine summit]

what other mode do i need to enable to get enemy rando working

mods*

[weary sand]

I'm tryna play the gun mod but the bullets just aren't going anywhere

they just stacked with the knight

[thin bluff]

I have a question

Does hollow knight modding support Xbox Game pass?

[merry pier]

Nope

[merry pier]

You problem is probably that you didn’t follow the right step to make hollow point work, you have to first create a save file then activate the mod and open that save file

[frail trail]

@carmine summit for future reference, don’t try pinging everyone in the server for issues with your mod

just wait for people to respond to your question

[weary sand]

ty

[quaint locust]

So I'm trying to download mods, and I got to the stage of clicking the link and trying to download the mod loader, and it gave me this message, I tried updating to Windows 11 and it still gives me this message, I thought Hollow Knight was fully updated so I don't know what to do, please help?

[thin bluff]

ok

thanks

[unkempt dome]

[wheat orchid]
