ah okay, thank you
@senpaithepixelman in hollowknight go to setting-mods-custom knight-select the skin you want-apply
and what are these assembly c sharp things
Send a Screenshot of it i dont know what you mean
How do you apply a skin??
its under mods
Ingame press Esc an Do the written steps
aight
Thes are mods and other Thing just dont edit them
It doesn't show mods in the settings
Into the skin folder Not Into an existing skin
No just delete the skin you added
i added it to the defualt folder and it changed
it
and i cant get the knight back
so i reinstalled it
it put it back to normal
That's the Problem with it you need it as a seperate folder it should Look like this
Deafault
SwapperDemo
(The skin you want)
like this?
do I need Swapper demo to install mods?
can someone help me fix this im on windows 8
im on windows 10
same
on a laptop
No..
i am
Cool
You need them in a folder (only the hornet skin Things)
so godmaster version and classic zip files?
In the skin folder you have
Default
SwapperDemo
Hornet and the pngs are in a folder
you should have downloaded it in a zip file. Copy the folder and paste it into the Skin folder
Unzipped
Is god Master a skin or do you mean the dlc
i mean
the hornet skin pack
has a golden god home version
and a classic
both diffrent
You can Do bc its a mod and when problems Happen you can just delete them
Go to options then to mods then CustomKnight then choose the skin and then aplly
When mods Dont Show up close the game go to scarab and click enable api
Did it work?
Head to your saves folder and delete anything that ends in .globalsettings.json
Looks like one of your settings files is corrupted.
Does anyone know if down patching my game will affect current patch saves? Will down patching and then returning to current patch later have any effects?
You can use 1.5 saves on 1.4 and vice-versa
how do you add custom skins to customknight for 1.4 hk
?saves Download a skin (you can find a Google drive full of them in the pinned messages)
Extract that skin and place the folder into your custom Knight folder, located in your game files. (Listed below)

I've been trying to use sadists new skin, but it's not working.
I put it into custom knight but when go in game and go to options but the mod select isn't there, does someone know how to fix this?
I also downloaded scarab but don't know how to use it...
is the whole like platforming mod updated? decoration master i think it was
Platforming mod?
does anyone know how to get multiplayer to work and or with a randomizer?
Today, I'm doing my first YouTube stream, and it's going to be of Impossible Any%. I will probably go for a few hours and see how far I can get.
You might see me using Debug Mod for infinite HP. This is because you can heal to full without consequence everywhere using the statues, so I'm just doing this to save myself a couple hours of hitting ...
this thing
I watched that.. but I'm trying to figure out how to use a skin, do you know how?
Where can I find all the mods that aren't on Nexus?
no clue mate
It always annoys me when you have yo join and dig through a discord for information on a mod, I miss the days of public wikis that you could find with just a google search.
hello i have a question
so i installed the custom knight mod from mod installer
but it doesnt show up anywhere in my files
i tried searching it and its like it doesnt exist
so i cant use uh custom skins
If you are having issues with custom knight see this
ok
Read the literal first pinned message
Yeah we’re literally here to help 
i watched this exact vid before
Really it’s better than just having a wiki because we can actually answer questions
and the custom knight folder after downloading doesnt appear in mods folder.
Did you read the rest of it
other mods do
Fireb0rn did a tutorial you can watch it
like some files make conflicts and i dont understand it
That’s what we’re linking 
If you have a specific problem then describe your problem.
i did watch it before
I know but some people i think dont know it
have you launched the game with it installed?
well, as i said other mods when installed from mod installer immediately show up in the hollow knight mods folder or whatever its called and custom knight just doesnt after i install it and not only that it doesnt appear on my computer either
yes
do you have satchel installed?
a dependency of customknight
you're on 1.4.3.2?
ye
oh so it requires other mod to run?
ye
bruh
what i dooo
so customknight is appearing on your main menu and shit?
ye
it does
when i press "Esc" does too
but nowhere to be found.
in folder.

all other mods show up here when installed
What
don't look in the modding api folder
How did that get there
then where
no clue
i am.
you're at the wrong spot entirely
in hollow knight data
None of the folders past Hollow Knight should exist there
then how they do

Where did you get that
from this discord server
radiance.host
I have no idea how that got there then
._.
I’ve never seen a folder structure like that
what i doo
game files
Well leave it I guess, just continue with CustomKnight or whatever
just pretend like that doesn't exist
why bother searching
Did you try to manually install the ModdingApi ever?
just go straight to it
Yeah
?
You just double click folders
oki
If you don’t know what it is, you probably didn’t do it
It just looks like somebody tried to install the ModdingApi without a installer and put it in the save files path
I WAS JUST DUMB AND WAS SEARCHING SAVE FILES INSTEAD GAME FILES
and i was like "mods show there" THEY DONT. ITS JUST SAVES OF EM.
Im so dumb bruh
kill me
💀
why though? what led you to searching there
it isnt much difference.. i dont see other folders
i was like: "its ok it isnt much difference i dont see other folders"
the structire is almost the same
structure
i
so you searched your whole system instead of following the video?
still really weird how that was there
Can anyone help me? I've been trying for the past 2 hours and finally decided to ask for help here. So I've been trying to use my mods for Hollow Knight, but when I go to options it doesn't say mods anymore, does someone know why this is happening?
which installer, which game version?
anyways people tysm for help
I'm using 1.5 and I'm trying to use Scarab but I don't know how
open scarab, click boxes of mods you want to install
To open scarab I just need to like double click on it right..
yes...
How long does it take to open?
average scarab fan vs average mod installer enjoyer
I'll do that
sounds like a forbidden experiment
well ye anyways thx for help and ye stay safe guys
and cyren gl on the absolute radiance ur fighting
lol
ty :D

Aight Thanks
I was going to set-up a multiworld room rando with HKMP. I am confused, do I need to play on 1.4 or 1.5? It looks like HKMP is for 1.5, but if multiworld updated for 1.5?
randomizer is 1.4.3.2 only
and are you sure you want multiworld and not itemsync?
hkmp has 1.4.3.2 versions, latest is 0.7.2 iirc
I guess either? What's the difference?
multiworld means items you need to progress could be in another player's world, itemsync means if one player gets an item everyone gets it
ah, then itemsync I guess haha
so, your wings could be in a friend's world with multiworld. But with itemsync, wings would be in the same spot for everyone, and if one person gets it then everyone gets it
I couldn't find the 1.4 version for HKMP, do you have a link?
it's on the github
alright i'll check again, ty!
and btw itemsync requires a custom version of randomizer
aaaa k I'll look into that 😅 tyty!
randomizer
I assume they just started a randomizer but with all randomization disabled
Ok thank you!
just say your problem 
ok dood
well
the skins linked in fireborn's vid
i downloaded from both links
those from uh custom knight skins link work
those from custom knight skins by white palace group link
dont work at all
and i wonder if i need a diff mod engine for em or idk
ensure that your folder structure is customkinght/<skin name>/all the images here
Screenshot
the folder the images are in of a skin that doesn't work
Folder
ok
I have a problem
my hk does not want to open
im on the 1.4.3.2 and the only that I did differently from before was using scarab as my mod downloader and not modinstaller
I saw what scarab was and wanting to check it out but veery time i open up hk it crashes
what do?
wdym down a level
screenshot the inside of a folder that isn't working
uh
ok
there are two not working
lemme pick a random ig
this for example
doesnt work
when i click to use it in the pause menu it just turns me to default knight
same as the "void knight" and "halloween"
3 not working actually
your folder structure is wrong
wdym
.
your is customkinght/<skin name>/<skin name again>/all the images here
Screenshot in a folder that does work
oh
ok when i copy the actual folder
i get a system message
"this cant be pasted unexpected error"
move the folder or the images up, doesn't really matter
like up the list?
or you can make a new folder and move the images into it
ok
whats the name of the gun mod?
hollowpoint
thx
I for the life of me cannot find where I downloaded itemsync. I have itemsync, but where do I get the custom randomizer for it?
made new folders and copied images there
lemme restart the game and see if its solved now
#modding-discussion pins
nope it doesnt work.
Screenshot folder
ty!
screenshot the new one
You said you made a new folder and images
and they said its cuz some of em are folders containing folder that contain the images
you've moved stuff around, right?
ok
the ReadMe might be necessary

Hey so I downpatched hollow kight to 1.4.3.2 to play randomizer, and know my 1.5 mods dont work
nice
ok sorry i worded it wrong, I'm on 1.5 and the mods dont ork
i thought its unnecessary
work*
have you updated your modding api in scarab?
no ill try that
probably contains critical info, not sure what that could be but it's not surprising
ill see what it contains gimme a sec
all it contains is literally this:
how is that critical info
bruh
It wont let me update the modding API
I'm guessing it might look at the first line for the skin name?
alr anyways thx for help
wdym "wont let me"
its grayed out so i cant try updating it
oh alright thanks

hey guys how do I get the mod installer without paying for anything or registering for this windows.zip thing?
i have my hollow knight mods installed from mod installer but when i open hollow knight none of the mods are in the tiop left
that's weird
I haven't gotten it yet but I've seen others and they find it real easy...
hmm idk
do these look alright?
unzip the download
How does one do that?
right click, extract
there is no mod installer for 1.2.2.1
there are installers for 1.5 and 1.4.3.2
yo
so like i have the room randomizer installed and shit for 1.4.3.2
and serecore and all that
how do i get this shit to actually work
Do you mean without paying for the game or for mods? You shouldn’t need to pay for mods, idk if team Cherry would be good with that
Start a new save file
Anyone know how to do multiplayer mod?
with randomizer
Tmk you can either use a 1.4.3.2 ver of hkmp or use multiworld which was meant for randomizer
Can you have 1.5 & 1.4 at the Same time?
are there any major differences in 1.5 and 1.4? this is my first time trying hk modding
?guides You can have a separate install of a different patch, yes. You can check the downpatch guide below to see how to have multiple patches. (You can ignore the rest of the guide.)
As far as modding goes, the only differences are that 1.4 has Randomiser mods. 1.5 is generally better to use of you aren't using Rando.
Is there a mod for randomizer that can show you where you missed items?
Randomiser Map S
thx
Im kinda stuck and I dont know where to go since I dont have any movement abilities
i was asking more about what team cherry changed, but im here to try rando so i guess im goin 1.4!
The differences are almost entirely backend. That changes the way the game feels overall, but apart from the Watcher Knights getting back their back roll they lost three years ago, it's basically identical.
Also controller vibration, but i think there's a mod for that
You can also check the spoiler log
If you're desperate
If you have any more questions about Rando after using the map you can check it #randomizer. There's also a link in the pins of that channel to a server that's more specific.
Rando map S has that function built in
Oh, that's neat
haha I cant even get the claw
So I made a mistake. I installed both mod managers, and now both are broken. I can’t add mods from either one, it shows me that they are installed but they aren’t. The loading bar does not appear when I launch it and in the top corner it says “modding api”. Is there any way to make it possible for me to mod hollow knight again?
Does anyone know where i can find modlog.txt?

Feel free to ask if you have a problem. It can be pretty hard to parse.
I still cant seem to find it, i've read through the readme file for the mod (randomapmod) but i seem to have done everything correctly, its still just spitting the error in the homescreen, any help? is the other map mod the one I should install instead?
You are probably in your game files and not your save files.
Randomiser Map S is the most up to date version. Randomapmod is outdated now.
Ah, it seems to be working now, the pins are showing on the map. Uninstalled the randomap and did the S and it worked, thank you!
is something meant to happen after i click any of these checks or do i have to do something cause i cant see anything changing in the game
sorry in advance if this is a dumb question lol
Which mod installer is this?
scarab
There should be a list of options in the bottom left. One should say "Enable API". Is there that option?
Also is your game open or closed?
opened
Close everything, then restart scarab
done
and also there is a toggle api option in the bottom left
cant click it though
Try installing a mod and see if it works now.
Just click install on custom Knight, and it should install 2 mods. Then open your game and you should see a spaghetti icon above your patch number, and some stuff in the top left.
yep those are there
oh i see a mods option now in options
i assume it all works fine now?
Should be good!
Hmm. Double check custom Knight still says installed next to it in scarab. If it does then it sounds like the settings file for it is broken (which can happen on install for some unknown reason). Head to your saves folder and delete customknight.globalsettings.json
?saves Your saves folder path is listed below.

downpathc to 1.4
aight
and how would i go about doing that
how-to in pins

works now, tyvm
This is probably a stupid question but do you need Hollow Knight downloaded to make a modded boss
Or do you do it through something else
You would need the game, as well as general knowledge in using C#
I haven't checked today, but HK had been 50% off on GOG for the last few days
can someone help me for some reason i cant get into the uumuu fight in hall of gods, i think it has something to do with the uuwuu modded boss that i had before but now I got rid of all mods and verified the integrity of the steam files and it still doesnt work
GOG...?
down/uppatch your game to match what modinstaller youre using
so im on the 1.4... mod installer and it opens and i installed the mods and theyre enabled but they arent in game
modinstaller2
Im using scarab since I had a few problems with the 2.0 installer, and for some reason the game just wont launch, a popup appears with a crash report and then disappears shortly after, any solutions?
Where do i find all the skins?
Can you use mods on xbox consoles?
no
wait what I coulda sworn randomizer got a 1.5 version at some point 
I cant use mods anymore without getting a glitch that says my saves are loading when they arent

Question, does Scarab have a randomiser setting for mac?
Also, what is the hotkey for mod settings in game?
Ok, thanks
I'm sure this is asked a lot but how can I get the multiplayer mod to work?
we've tried everything
with certain skins yes
Wdym?
Enemy HP Bars doesn't apply to HKMP
it only applies to regular game enemies
HKMP Skins only use knight.png and sprint.png
You need to put the skin in Custom Knight for anything else
Yes, and then apply it with Custom Knight
Your Mods Menu looks empty tho, which is odd
Do you have Custom Knight installed?
Are you playing on 1432?
yep
So then the CK menu is to the Left of the Pause menu
do you guys stay on older patch 1.4 or do you swap patch to 1.5 ?
Depends on what you want to do
but it's not really necessary to be on 1.5 right ?
it's not necessary to be on any version
O.O
I have both versions installed, because I use both.
1432 for Rando
Current Patch for literally everything else, and playing the mods that are only on 1.5
oh, you could have 2 installed ?
im trying to run the modInstaller but it says I need the most stable version, im running the game through steam but I dont see any updates available on steam. Do i need to roll-back my HK version?
Idk how to use scarab or how any of this really works. Just wanting to do room / item randos. Help?
randomizer is 1.4.3.2 only
Ahhh alright cheers

Install the roomrando3.0
install the HKMP
I did drag the ItemSync.dll into the mod folder
But I don't see the crate room option
any help please ?
Did you also get multi world lib
It should've been in the same folder you downloaded to get item sync
You can check your mod log to see what dependencies you are missing when a mod days failed to load
I thought that was the other one ... so I didn’t copy that 😐
nice, silly me. It’s there now, thanks
Hey could it be that some mods give lag to the game or somthing like that, because i experiencing some problems
Usually the modded assembly make the game run better, but if you have a lot of mods or intense mods like custom Knight or Rando it can affect performance.
You could give it a shot, yeah
Is there a way to check if my Hollow Knight needs an update every time I try to run the mod loader it says I need to update my game to the most stable patch
?I You are using an old installer

Ok thank you
q
this happenes when i ever i open hollow knight after downloading the modder can someone help
i deleted all the mods too but it hasnt changed
i have the same problem
me too have that problem
I think you have to use a different version
hey there, can someone explain to me how to download the enemyhpbar mod?
for some reason I cant play with mods or I get a glitch where nothing appears in the save slots except for "loading..." I've tried almost everything to fix it. Using different modinstallers, verifying the files on all of them, deleting and reinstalling hollow knight, deleting the mods folder and re downloding the modinstaller 2. I just want to do a rando with a gun
please
Check pins
tysm
maybe you install 1.4 API to 1.5
You used a mod installer for 1.4.3.2 on version 1.5 of hollow knight, get scarab, the mod installer for 1.5 in the first pinned message (@copper bramble ClouddStrifeee#5383)

i dont wanna lose my 100 hour save file lol
You can always also fix it by either reinstalling the game or verifying the game files
I want to download Mod Installer but it says i need the most recent stable version of the game, but i just bought the game.
If you mean being able to reinstall but are worried about save files, those are completely separate and you’d need to go out of your way to delete them, also I can’t guarantee mods will work at all with pirated versions
wait what do i do once i get scarab
(Same as the last one) You have a mod installer for 1.4.3.2 but have ver 1.5 of hollow knight, you can either revert to 1.4.3.2 or get the mod installer for 1.5 but not both, directions for both are in the first pinned message

i downloaded scarab and everything but how do i use it to fix the problem
You install mods to overwrite the wrong file. Problems may persist though because it’s a pirated version
aight ok thanks
Also I really don’t want to be rude, but if you can, please buy the game
How do I downgrade to 1.4.3.2?
It’s the 3rd pinned comment
Oh okay
dude i REALLY REALLY want to
but im not allowed to buy games
so ive been trying super hard to convince my friend
to buy for me
\ so I've tried to install SmolKnight a few different ways. First through the Radiance manager, version 8.7.1, then manually through a github link just putting the file in the mods folder. And the mod works, but it doesn't toggle the size on backspace like all the guides say it should and some videos show it doing, and it doesn't show up in the "Mod Options" menu for me to switch sizes manually or set a new toggle key
Which version of the game are you running ? 1.5 I assume
\ which means I can be smol but I can't be big knight, and there's no way for me to change size without exiting the game entirely and disabling the mod at the manager, which is really annoying because I run randomizers and there are some checks far from benches that smol knight legitimately can't reach.
\ no, 1.4.3.2
Yup, I’m pretty sure only one of the sizes work on 1.4, you need to get 1.5, and to make the mod work you should grab scarab, the 1.5 installer
\ are all the same mods on 1.5?
Most of them, custom knight works a bit differently and randomiser isn’t there yet
And hum
Why do all your message start with a \
\ oh randomizer is the main one for me
\ it's an identifier. I share this account, so it tells people which of us is talking
That’s weird but sure so yeah if you wan’t to rando with big knight small knight you are going to have to wait an undertermined amount of time, unless someone more knowledge full says otherwise
\ well being big isn't important to me, what I'm really here for is getting the toggle working at all without quitting out and reverting to a bench, just between smol and regular. Was the in-game toggle also only added for the 1.5 version of the mod?
\ even the guides I found that didn't mention the big knight still mentioned being able to toggle it
I’m trying to download a skin, but when I click download in the drive it says that the file can’t download and it says that enabling third party cookies could help.
My game immediately closes out when I open it with mods from modinstaller could someone please help me? (On mac btw)
Read the third pin. There's a
link about what to do after changing patches
k, thanks
does the installer have a 64bit compatible version or nah
i bet that was asked before but eh
where can i find custom hp bars for the hp bar mod
I did downpatch it throgh steam, then when I tried to open it it said it couldnt be opened
Which installer did you download?
the modinstaler 2
The toggle and being Beeg wasn't actually in the original Smolknight.
It was added under another name originally, and then just made party of the main mod when ported to 1.5
If you want to use it in 1432:
https://github.com/TheMulhima/TransformerKnight/releases/download/v1.5-1432/TransformerKnight.dll
Just make sure you don't still have Smolknight installed
Also you can just use mods on 1.5.78 instead of downpatching
i tried installing the EnemyRandomizer, i did install ModCommon in the 1.4.3.2 and EnemyRandomizer shows up ingame yet it's not working
nvm there was a big button in the menu and im blind
Go to Main menu > options > mods > Enemy Randomizer
Toggle it Off then On again.
Then restart Hollow Knight, and there should be a big button on the main menu
thank u uwu
That should be compatible.
If you're on MacOS then you often need to do extra steps:
- see the 3rd pin's
post about what to do after changing patches - if mod installer 2 doesn't open (or Scarab for current patch), then right click it, view package contents, and navigate through the folders until you find ModInstaller2.app (or Scarab.app), and launch that one
nah im not on mac
\ just installed from that link, double-checked that the other SmolKnight was uninstalled, booted up and it still isn't showing up in mod options or toggling on backspace. Was the toggle button something different for that version?
also what do i do if i have the 32bit version already installed
It doesn't matter
No, it should be Backspace by default.
Can you screenshot your pause menu?
The installer works with either.
well the one that i have doesnt work with the newest update
What OS are you on?
windows
You need to download the curvy installer for your patch.
Nothing to do with x32/x64 etc
bruh
Get rid of unofficial HK patch. It doesn't work anyway.
man f these youtube guides
Most YouTube guides are out of date
yeah i got that too late
Do you want to play with any randomiser mods at all?
I have been meaning to make modern ones. Maybe I finally will this week X_x
I'm going to just start from basics and tell you how it works and we'll go from there.
nah
I'm waiting until Rando is on 1.5. I have a script written.
i already installed skins for hk on the 1.4 version
so ik what to do with skin stuff atleast
kinda
Okay so you already have some mods working?

yeh i already got it
Okay, good stuff. Have you extracted it and opened scarab up?
Have you downloaded custom knight?
After you get rid of Unofficial patch, Go into your saves folder, and yeet the GlobalSettings files for Smolknight, and moddingApi
Then try again
i think so
There's no reason that you shouldn't have the Options > mod menu for it
Good stuff. You'll need to put your skins in the new skins folder. The file path is mods/custom Knight/skins/YOUR SKIN NAME HERE/IMAGE FILES HERE
It's better than it used to be 
"Installed?" With a tick next to it means "yes, installed"
oh
But I don't like how the installers work at all so don't ask me
oh well
Installed = is it physically downloaded
Enabled = is it in the active mods folder, or disabled mods folder
no i know
i was asking why the question marks
english might be my second language but im not that stoopid
Anyway do your mods work?
didnt try yet
getting my skins back
hi i'm trying to download impossible any% but for some reason it doesn't work can some1 help me?
Ah, okay. What are you doing, what are you expecting, and what is actually happening?
i can stream it so it will be easier
but if not then it says that the deco master is working but my game is not the imposible any%
\ it got worse, now nothing at all is appearing in the mod options menu, and backspace still does nothing
\ before, the other mods were displaying in the options menu correctly, QoL, Easy Mode, etc. It was only the size mod, and now it's all of them after I removed those files you directed me to

?pins download scarab
i dont understent how downoled
Click the link to the github website
Click the link that matches your operating system
Extract the folder you downloaded to your desktop
Open that folder, then open scarab.exe
idk if he understands all that
arh
Then they will have to find a Russian language server, sadly
cant you just use google translate then translate it to russian?
or i guess they could do that
in youtube russians say go to this server
you can use translate so you can understand better
\ for the "Extract" step you will likely need to install an additional application like 7Zip
If there's any of it you don't understand please say, other than that all I can do is speak in the only language I know.
i do it , fanks
np
If anybody here also speaks Russian that would be rad
Thanks I'll try it now
you are very friandle:3
must be hard to speak a language with every letter being non native to your language well out of topic glad he could help
ae
ik this is a dumb question but is there a way to download files from drive without being compressed?
does winrar work?
Yes
can i decompress multiple files at once?
my anti virus dont like whis modes :((
It can decompress a whole folder.
i cant figure out how to do that
You should be able to click a button that says "more information" or something similar, then click "continue anyway"
Right click the folder -> extract.
Or look up a winrar tutorial on Google
it doesnt give me a option to extract even tho all of the files are zipped inside the file
That's suspicious 
Removed Global Settings should just regenerate when you launch the game again.
Close the game, and also remove the Global Setting for Benchwarp
Then either your folder isn't compressed or you're doing it wrong. Look for a tutorial
\ should I re-remove the API files too?
I think you're in the wrong folder
on russian languich 0 servers:((
\ you told me to remove the ModdingAPIGlobalSettings files earlier?
\ LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight, where all the mod Global Settings files are, two for each, one JSON and one BAK
Okay, yes. That is correct. Make sure your game is closed, delete all of the global settings files, then start your game again.
no you dont understent scarab just dont open
\ oh, sorry, that last message wasn't the same person who told me where to go before
Have you extracted the folder? The folder you download will be compressed.
You need to extract it to your desktop using a program like 7zip or WinRar
i dont have it
You will have to search the internet for one of them and get it, then.
That's enough, I 'll do it tomorrow, sorry, but I 'm too stupid for all this
\ the other mods are in the mod options menu again but TransformKnight still isn't, and backspace still does nothing
Is transform knight definitely in your mods folder?
\ yes
I suppose it comes up in the top left so it must be
\ and it shows in the top-left list of mods
\ yeah
\ and the knight is small
\ it's working in every way except the toggle button and mod options menu
Help. I tried to change my skin and then this
Yo what is the name of that skin? It looks awesome! I wanna try it out.
Actually, please help.
Does it only happen with this skin you're using or with every single one?
Oh, restarting fixed it.
Oh alright then.
Help, im doing a randomizerrun and for some reason im invincible
I have debug mod but invincibility is disabled
\ did you use benchwarp recently?
Yes
\ benchwarp to a different bench and see if you're still invincible
\ well if you're at a bench you won't lose anything by exiting to main menu and re-joining
Ok
how benchwarp works?
Why havent i thought of this
hey sorry to bother i was looking for the mod installer but i can´t seem to find it anywhere, does anybody have the link?
Pins
oh thanks lol
\ apparently the 1.5 version doesn't have randomizers yet so if you want that you'll have to use the 1.4 mod manager
\ if you have the mod installed, when you pause there should be a menu at the top of the screen you can click through to see different benches
\ the ones you've been to already are colored in and you can select any of them and then click a "warp" button and it'll take you to that bench
\ and by "pause" I don't mean the map/inventory screen, I mean the one with options that you would use to quit
is anyone here able to help me with testing if my zerotier server works for hollow knight multiplayer? i already have the network created, i just need someone to connect to it and then try connecting to the server within hollow knight
Hi everyone
I was going to try out the MultiWorld (ItemSync) mod and was wondering, when somebody picks up or buys an item, will everyone receive it or everyone except that player? Or maybe that is a settings that can be toggled somehow? Also, are there any exceptions to this, for example the player finds a special item and only they receive it? (sorry for bad English and sorry if this is a wrong place to ask)
Everybody received the item when you pick it up, but not all items are shared, I don't believe.
Certain things like Geo pickups won't be.
Okay, thank you
#randomizer is the best place to talk about Rando specific things btw. 😊
Okay, I'll ask there if I have any other issues with randomizer
I can
Okay
Do you mean a skin for CustomKnight that turns you into a smaller version of hornet or the mod that makes hornet’s real animations play and makes the knight invisible?
Daughter of Hallownest, not the one on the mod installer
?pins look for the google drives for skins, look in twp(the white palace’s) google drive

my custom knight doesnt work lol
@oblique cipher whats the problem?
wait no i fixed it its good
i do have another problem
i wanna install an item/room randomizer but there arent any on the scarab
and when im on github idfk what to do or where to click to download
They aren't on 1.5 yet. You'll need to downpatch to 1.4 and use an older installer. (Which means also redownloading the 1.4 versions of your other mods.)
The radomizer is worth it though, big time
I downloaded the mod installer , I want to fight any radiance. Where do I find her
Ultimatum radiance was a bum. I want a real challenge!
Was trying out Custom Knight on scarab, and it the skins wouldn't show up. I then relaunched the game, resulting in the mod showing up as activated in the upper-left corner of the start menu, but not in the mods section of settings like it usually would. I attempted to delete and reinstall the mod, but this proved to be ineffective.
Head to your saves folder and delete customknight.Globalsettings.JSON
Sorry, I don't know where the saves folder is...
so i got the mod launcher and it says i need to update the game but steam says its already on the latest patch?

Sorry to bother you, thanks!
how does one do a randomizer with scarab?
Unfortunately, you can't yet.
It’s not updated to 1.5, it’s in development though
There isn’t a list/probably no way to get one
i see
Mods are made by individual people, so one could just appear whenever.
what mod do i download for skin mod
Custom Knight
is it possible to run gun mod, and multiplayer mod, using an older 1.4.3.2 mod for MP
Yes
If you're talking about the multiplayer mod on the installer, I suggest you get HKMP instead, it's just better. #archived-modding-help message
And you should be able to use hollow point for multiplayer, but the other person might not see everything exactly right
i need some help with custom knight
the name of the skin (starry knight) shows up in the upper left corner of the pause menu, but when i click on it, the "change skin" thing disappears and my character flashes, but the skin doesn't change
Read this message.
for me custom skins arent working
i put my google drive download into the CustomKnight file and then i click the swap skin icon in the top left of the ESC menu and nothing happens
im having the same problem as galaxy koala
i click on it and it flashed
...
and it didint change
if you're having the same problem, look at the thing two people suggested...
i do the thing the fireborn video says but it still doesnt work
not that
oh what specific part
for me its managed mods customknight/my folder/thefolderscontents
how do you get the skins
after the /customknight
what?
in the file directory?
i dont have a skins folder in custom knight i just have custom knight
What game version are you on?
i found the problem, at least for me
1.4.3.2
customknight wasn't in the mods folder
only enemy hp bar, but i wasn't using that mod
that's uh, interesting, how did that even happen?
i have hollow point mod installed but not enabled
the randomizer that i was using was working, so idk what's going on
do i uninstall hollow point?
You're probably looking at the wrong game files
well if it wasn't enabled that shouldn't have mattered, check the other options
