We don't need a running commentary either

timid trellis
#

Which mod is specifically for manually adding spells for example speedrunner vs hunter?

limber egret
#

Debug mod can do what you need

timid trellis
#

Ah excellent, much appreciated

tough elm
#

it didint work

#

my character just flashed and didint change at all

limber egret
#

Did you check step 3

tough elm
#

yes but i dont understand what it means

limber egret
#

It means that your file structure needs to match the default skin

#

Make sure there's not extra folders

tough elm
#

the only files in custom knight are Default and smolaire

limber egret
#

And inside the smolaire folder?

tough elm
#

are the skins

#

with a folder for weaver

#

spawn

limber egret
#

Take a screenshot, including the address bar

tough elm
#

im embarrassd to say this but how do you screenshot on desktop...

limber egret
#

There should be a button that says print screen on your keyboard

#

Or use the clipping tool if you're on Windows

tough elm
#

om on windows and what is the clipping tool

limber egret
#

It's an app

west bane
#

Win + shift + s (i think)

tough elm
#

kk

viral harness
#

what does the mod console do?

limber egret
#

It's used for testing mods

tough elm
viral harness
#

ah

limber egret
#

This is your custom Knight folder

tough elm
limber egret
#

Click "extract"

#

You cannot use compressed folders for basically anything

tough elm
#

what do i do with the zipped aftger

#

delete it?

limber egret
#

You can do yes

tough elm
#

ok i think that was the issue

#

#

Hi, I'm trying out skins in Hollow Knight, I followed Fireborn's video on how to do it, however something does not seem to be working. When I get in game the window for custom skins is a bit different than that of the video and when I click on a skin name the text just disappears. Has anyone ran into this before?

west bane
#

screenshot your customknight folder

tribal trellis
west bane
#

and inside those folders is the skin files or another folder

tribal trellis
#

Its the pngs

west bane
#

did it come with a readme or no

tribal trellis
#

I reinstalled customknight but it didnt help

#

no readme exists for customknight it says

west bane
#

the skin folder

tribal trellis
#

no

#

only whats seen there

west bane
#

alright go to your save files and delete your globalsettings files and then restart the game

aggg. Sorry to bother, but HollowPoint is giving me some grief. For some reason, when I launch the save, and the added ui has a bunch of overlapping -9999s(sometimes 1, sometimes 3, sometimes 2 with with an additional one that is grey and seperate.), and I am unable to use or even weild the AK.

west bane
#

are you starting HP on a new save

dusky island
#

Yes

west bane
#

what other mods do you have installed

Reload the save, it breaks on save creating, exiting and going back in fixes it

what can i do

west bane

make sure windows security isn't blocking it

so you go to open it and nothing happens at all?

HollowPoint only works on 1.4.3.2 though, unless the new HKMP also works on 1.4.3.2

@wheat orchid you are the person making HollowPoint now?

#

I am trying to play multiplayer with my friend, we both connected and we see eachother, but no one moves, why?

west bane
#

are you using HKMP

shrewd swift
#

what s that?

chrome hollow
#

I only have enabled multi player client and server from modloader

west bane
#

also your problem probably is that you have client and server installed, only the server needs server, and the client needs just client

chrome hollow
#

oh

#

and btw do we both need to have hkmp?

west bane
#

no its just recommended

novel bronze
#

Just installed modinstaller 2, now hollow knight won't run

hey i just installed modinstaller for 1.432 but when i open it it says "modinstaller quit unexpectidly"

im on mac btw

novel bronze
west bane
#

what patch is your game

novel bronze
native ice
west bane
#

if you havent downpatched it then your game is 1.5, you need to downpatch to 1.4

novel bronze
west bane
#

if you don't know it's probably 1.5, you need to downpatch to 1.4

shrewd swift
#

open hk and it shows in the start game screen on the bottom left

novel bronze
shrewd swift
#

then open hk folder

real jacinth
#

did you downpatch

shrewd swift
#

it should say

real jacinth
#

if not, you have 1.5

where should i extract the hkmp?

topaz idol
#

Even so I have a question, when placing a skin the game stops and sometimes crashes, why is it?

shrewd swift
#

bad pc

#

Please don't ghost ping Admins, or anyone

topaz idol
west bane

does placing a skin without the game open resolve this

Oh thank you

main mountain
native ice
#

I doubt it will be, no

#

Why would you do it in a randomizer though?

#

like it won't break, but you have to go so out of your way, getting all the movement items necessary and getting voidheart and such

main mountain
#

I dunno xD. I wanted to do one where the goal is to beat Path Of Pain and I just decided to tack that on too since I'll probably have all the items I'd need for that.

#

I've just already done two randos where the goal was True Ending and decided to spice it up a bit.

native ice
#

fair enough, good luck

I'm off to a rough start cause I have random start on and it put me next to collo. But I've still got checks I know I can reach so I'm not fucked yet.

#

\ so I still haven't solved my last issue despite deleting the global settings files for every mod multiple times and uninstalling/reinstalling TransformKnight multiple times, but I've basically given up on that and have an unrelated question which should be easier

glacial crane
#

\ SmolKnight mod, and then TransformKnight mod once I was pointed to that being the better version of it, seem to install properly and make the knight smaller and appear in the top-left mod list, but the size toggle button, backspace, does nothing, and the mods never show up under the "Mod Settings" menu, and a lot of the things people suggested to "fix" the issue just made things worse and have left my Mod Settings menu a seemingly irreparable totally blank screen without the settings for other mods either, even after uninstalling TransformKnight

#

\ anyway, unrelatedly, in this section of a gamesave file, under "NailRange", how much and in what way would changing this value change my base charmless nail range? Like, what would this value look like if I increased the range by 50%? would it be 0.5? or 50? or negative, or something else, weirder

native ice
#

Pretty sure it'll be 0.5 if anything, i'd suggest making an extra noticable change, like try setting it to 1 or 2 first, might help make sure it's working

glacial crane
#

\ oh neat, I got the other mod settings to display again, at least. That doesn't solve my first issue but at least it's back to square one and not left more broken than it was this morning

#

\ I tried setting NailRange to 2, and then to 50, and it doesn't seem to have made a notable difference. I only have down-strike right now but I can still jump high enough that the grass under me doesn't break

native ice
#

did you save it?

#

and restart your game?

pliant lantern
#

Nail range is probably reset periodically

native ice
#

I'm pretty sure it should work, I vaguely remember messing with it a long while back

glacial crane
#

\ yeah I'm only editing the file when the game has totally exited to desktop, but I set it to 99999 and it still didn't cut the grass so it seems to have no effect

#

\ and other changes I've made have worked so I know the file is saving correctly

native ice
#

then maybe it is that, i think debug mod might have a hotkey to change nail range?

glacial crane
#

\ not anywhere I've been able to find

slate warren
#

hello, is there any mod that shows where you are in HK on your discord status?

wheat orchid
native ice
#

ye it's drpc, discord rich presence and idk what the c is

slate warren
#

is it for 1.4 or only 1.5?

native ice
#

Pretty sure it's both

wheat orchid
native ice
#

Make sure to check it's readme

slate warren

thank you <3

#

So, I'm looking into downloading the Scarab mod package, and... I'm really unclear which file(s) I need to download

tranquil grotto
#

Cool, thanks

#

OK, once I have Scarab installed and un-archived, how do I get it to run in the game? (Sorry if these all seem like really obvious questions - this is the first time I've ever messed around with mods, for any game)

wheat orchid
#

That will install the mod plus the ModdingApi which is what lets mods function

coral roost
#

When I try to open the modinstaller it says I have to be on the most recent and stable version of the game but... i am on the most recent version. idk about stable. any tips?

#

Anyone familiar with MultiWorld? If the server is fully closed, is there a way for someone to boot it back up and have people rejoin, still getting the items other people get?

rugged raptor
#

Is there any mods that add a quicksave feature?

pliant lantern
#

If the server closes, and everyone pauses, then it shouldn't be an issue afaik

pliant lantern
pliant lantern
#

MW data is mostly just handled by the client save files

#

the server just acts to deliver things

#

when items are picked up, the are queued to be sent to the server, and should stay in queue until the server "accepts" them. Then the server keeps them in queue until it "delivers" them.

#

oo ok

limber egret
#

Your options are either to downpatch to 1432, or use the most recent version of the installer, Scarab.

orchid badger
#

ok so i should intall scarab

limber egret
#

You only really need to down patch if you want to play with Randomiser mods

steel phoenix
#

Thanks for the help

heavy lagoon
#

Im trying to figure out how to update room randomizer but i havent played pc hollow knight since january

limber egret
#

If you don't want to play with those, scarab is the best way to go

heavy lagoon
#

So i dont remember anything mod related

orchid badger
#

ok thanks so mutch

limber egret
heavy lagoon
#

How do i check for patch 1432

limber egret
#

Err, not see above, see the pinned messages.

#

Your hollow knight main menu has the patch in the bottom left corner. If you don't know it, you're likely on the most recent patch, 1.5.78

heavy lagoon
#

My game is in the process of updating to newest patch

#

Should i cancel that

limber egret
#

Yep

#

You'll just be overwriting all those files anyway in a minute. 😅

heavy lagoon
#

So im trying to open hk but its trying to force me to update to open the game

#

What do i do to stop that @limber egret

limber egret
#

Check the third pinned message. That will override anything your Steam is trying to do anyway.

heavy lagoon
#

Im having a hard time understanding even with the pinned messages @limber egret

limber egret
#

Just look at the image in the message and you can mostly ignore the words.

#

The image shows you the main three steps.

heavy lagoon
#

Third pinned message from the top?

#

Okay ive done that @limber egret

limber egret
#

okay open your game to check it's on patch 1432. If this starts updating then just let it go.

heavy lagoon
#

It says its running but it wont open

#

Oh nvm my pc is just slow

#

@limber egret

#

Im on 1.4.3.2

limber egret
#

👍

heavy lagoon
#

So now what do i do?

limber egret
#

Do you already have a mod installer from before?

heavy lagoon
#

I have 3 mods installed but im sire theyre outdated

#

And i dont know how to check

#

It should still be on jere tho

#

Here*

#

I havent messed with any files or deleted or installed anything

limber egret
#

Open your installer and it should do most of the work for you

heavy lagoon
#

How do i find my installer

limber egret
#

It will be whatever you left it

#

Check your downloads folder

heavy lagoon
#

Trying to open modinstaller seems to have downloaded an auto update file @limber egret

limber egret
#

Ah you're very out of date then. 😅

#

Read this

heavy lagoon
#

Im struggling with this pc stuff lol

#

I dont understand how to do any of that @limber egret

#

Im sure it should be very simple

limber egret
#

Literally just follow the steps and click the links

heavy lagoon
#

But it just doesnt click for me

limber egret
#

Which bit don't you understand?

#

You know how to delete things right?

heavy lagoon
#

It isnt letting me

#

I right click and theres no delete button

limber egret
#

Just press delete on your keyboard

heavy lagoon
#

Okay i had to do it repeatedly for it to appear

#

Okay i genuinely dont know what he means in step 2 @limber egret

limber egret
#

Did you click the link in step 2?

heavy lagoon
#

Lemme switch to discord on my pc

limber egret
#

You'll be downloading stuff from this discord server so yes

heavy lagoon
#

Im really struggling to follow

#

I literally have zero experience with computers

limber egret
#

You clicked the link that sent you to this message, correct?

heavy lagoon
#

Yes

#

But i dont understand that message

limber egret
#

Copy that file path, press ctrl + R then paste that file path

#

And hit enter or run or whatever.

heavy lagoon
#

What is a file path

#

And where am i supposed to put this

limber egret
#

The %appdata%.. thing

heavy lagoon
#

I really just have zero knowledge im like an elderly person trying to play a videogame

limber egret
#

That's a file path

heavy lagoon
#

So the first thingy in the box?

limber egret
#

That whole little box. Copy it, then press ctrl+R, then paste that file path into that box.

heavy lagoon
#

Into what box?

limber egret
#

Ah, it's Windows+R

#

Should be a Windows key on the bottom left of your keyboard

heavy lagoon
#

Okay i pressed it and pasted the appdata local

#

Do i press enter?

limber egret
#

Yes

heavy lagoon
#

Okay what am i looking for now

#

Theres all these files

#

Oh i see modinstaller

limber egret
#

Delete that

heavy lagoon
#

K its gone entirelt

limber egret
#

Download mod installer 2 from the first pinned message

heavy lagoon
#

Isnt it telling me to delete something from windows installer 2 first

limber egret
#

?

#

No, that's what you do if you were using mod installer 2

#

You were using mod installer 1

heavy lagoon
#

Oh okay

limber egret
#

So now download mod installer 2

#

Because I prefer it and I'm the one helping you

heavy lagoon
#

Okayyy why is winrar opening saying i have no more free trial

#

@limber egret i pressed the link and it seemed to download something

winter tide
#

is randomizer possible with scarab?

limber egret
limber egret
heavy lagoon
#

I see modinstaller2.exe and modinstaller2.pdb

#

Which one

#

Or both

limber egret
#

Did you extract the folder?

heavy lagoon
#

No i literally just clicked the discord link

limber egret
#

...

#

So extract the folder

#

The whole folder, not just one of the files.

heavy lagoon
#

Extract to specified folder or extract without confirmation

limber egret
#

Whatever works for you, so long as the new folder ends up on your desktop

heavy lagoon
#

I dont understand how to put it into a new folder of its own

#

It just wants to go into existing folders

limber egret
#

That's fine

#

Just put it wherever then move the folder it creates to your desktop

heavy lagoon
#

I cant find the foldee it created thats the problem

limber egret
#

You just told it where to extract to

heavy lagoon
#

Okay i found the files but they didnt create a folder theyre just both separate

limber egret
#

Well make a folder

#

And put them in it

heavy lagoon
limber egret
#

So try things

#

Or Google it

heavy lagoon
#

Okay so both the exe and the pdb are now in the same folder @limber egret

#

Do i drag it to the desktop screen? Is it that simple?

limber egret
#

Yes

heavy lagoon
#

Its interrupting the action

#

"The destination folder is the same as the source folder" @limber egret

limber egret

Hey, im having trouble with Custom Knight. Installed it properly on the 1.4.3.2 version, just like in the tutorial. Modcommon is installed too. When im ingame I can see the skins while pausing the game, but If i choose one it doesnt change the appearance of my knight. Am I missing something?

#

Thats how it looks like ingame

normal lily
#

can somebody help me i can not heal and i can not se my soul light up

#

#

If thats apart of the debug mod idk
This is my first time modding lol

limber egret
#

The settings files will still be there but they won't do anything

#

The mod isn't in your game files, so it never checks for them. If you ever decide to turn them back on, your settings file is still there so any keybinds you've saved will remain, for example.

rugged raptor
#

Ahh okay tysm for the help <33

#

I was just going to install the debug mod on a different installer because it wasnt working for scarab
It was freezing when i tried to respawn lol

#

Sorry for yet another question but the debug mods readme file says to download “the modding API” from a link that doesnt work- any idea what its referring to?

vagrant silo
#

modding api is already installed

#

its needed to have mods and installs automatically

limber egret
#

The others won't work.

rugged raptor
#

I do have the latest patch

limber egret
#

You can't simply use a mod that was made for a different patch though

rugged raptor
#

Oh sorry i was told that the mod worked on the current patch

my custom knight does not work in scarab, it is installed, but the menu to change skins doesn't appear

#

also, make sure you're looking in mod options and not the generic pause menu

#

if i have a normal save, and get another with a mod, will the normal save gets also modded or what

lean perch
#

Every time I want to start the game or go to options, anything appears to me "do you want to quit the game" and I have to put yes or no, I tried uninstalling and installing tmb, deleting all my mods and their folders and I still don't want to delete the folders because are my games there

#

Start the game and it appears if you want to quit the game and I have to press yes or no and so on with the whole game

#

help me :C

Thanks

amber patio

im on windows and downloaded the universal.zip

real jacinth
#

use the mod installer

#

?pins

dense shuttleBOT
amber patio
#

the scarab one or the modinstaller for windows beneath it?

lean perch
real jacinth
#

and what mods you want

amber patio
#

alright ill look at that first then

#

thank you for your help 👍

real jacinth
lean perch
#

if I bought the game and also if it is vanilla

real jacinth
#

what

lean perch
#

LOL

#

what happens to me is very strange¡?

wheat orchid
#

Uhh I forgot the fix to that

#

I knew it at some point

real jacinth
#

probably just uninstall/reinstall or clear settings files, or buy the game

lean perch
#

I already have bought the game

#

I already tried installing and uninstalling

real jacinth
#

if I bought the game

#

then why'd you say this

#

as if you hadn't

lean perch
#

is that I am with the translator

limber egret
#

I assume English isn't their first language

lean perch
#

I do not speak English

real jacinth
#

that much was obvious. still a very strange word to start the sentence

#

even with a translator

lean perch
#

i buy game

amber patio
#

so the way i determine which installer to use is by the readme in the mod and the version of the game, right?

real jacinth
#

no

#

by what patch your game is

wheat orchid
real jacinth
#

the installer for that patch has all the appropriate mods for that patch

amber patio
#

ohhhhh

lean perch
#

I think I just fixed it
is that I had put a skin and took it out and it works LOL

amber patio
#

i get it now, thanks

#

i was using a tutorial on steam and it mentioned that

#

it was for the installer i linked earlier

real jacinth
#

what you linked wasn't an installer

#

it was an API (I think). I didn't actually open the link

amber patio
#

yeah api

real jacinth
#

APIs are auto installed by the installers

amber patio
#

sorry im not too good at this kinda thing lol

real jacinth
#

you shouldn't be downloading them yourself

#

the installers handle everything

#

just click buttons

amber patio
#

ok ive downloaded the scarab.zip for windows

#

do i need to dl the source code too or no?

real jacinth
#

no

amber patio
#

okay thanks

real jacinth
#

unzip the zip, run the exe

amber patio
#

the one just called scarab yeah?

real jacinth
#

the executable program

#

yes

amber patio
#

okay thanks, the application linked to the folder

#

alright one last dumb question, to use the installer for an older version, do i need to delete the scarab installer first?

real jacinth
#

no

amber patio
#

alright, thanks again

real jacinth
#

just don't run the program after you've downpatched

#

it doesn't passively do anything

amber patio
#

okay yeah alr, sorry for all the questions

I didnt test

#

Yet

wheat orchid
#

Try it

weak wharf

Everything worked fine

#

Let me download the librairies or smth

weak wharf
#

Wait nevermind it worked

#

I just had to install thé libraries

wheat orchid

lol

#

wanna go back for the bad one?

NOO its gonna crash

It crashed

Bad ending

i don't know why but i laughed lmao

HOLY shit

Tf happening

Well nevermind its fixed

#

Was still very very weird

gleaming aspen
#

a friend of mine installed some mods and had lag

#

now he restarted and he couldnt even start the game cuz it crashed

#

he tried to revert to unmodded but it couldnt locate vanilla HK

weak wharf
stable belfry
#

Should I backup my save file

gleaming aspen
#

he verified integrity and 1 file was missing

weak wharf
#

tell him to download all the libraries

gleaming aspen
#

it downloaded nothing

#

he uninstalled and still lagged

#

mods are disabled

#

its vanilla HK now

weak wharf
#

its his computer.

gleaming aspen
weak wharf
gleaming aspen
#

where can I find that

#

does he need to download that from the radiance.host

#

or in the modinstaller itself

weak wharf
#

the modinstaller

limber egret
#

Please don't help if you don't know what you're talking about

weak wharf
#

bruh

#

welp imma head out then-

#

sorry :/

limber egret
#

If the vanilla HK isn't working properly then it isn't mods. Downloading library mods won't help.

weak wharf
#

i though it was about the crashed

#

crashes

gleaming aspen
#

is there anything he could try that you guys know of?

real jacinth
#

run the game

#

see if it works with no mods at all

#

check the patch at title screen

#

and use the appropriate mod installer

#

for that patch

gleaming aspen
#

does he need to completely get rid of mod installer to try that?/

real jacinth
#

no

gleaming aspen
#

okay

real jacinth
#

verifying files removes mods

#

just don't open installer after

gleaming aspen
#

cuz he went to current patch for the redownload

#

should he redownload in 1.4.3.2 (the modinstaller thing we are using

real jacinth
#

up to you

limber egret
#

What patch is your friend on

gleaming aspen
#

right now in current patch

real jacinth
#

you can't use installers that don't match the patch they're for

gleaming aspen
#

yeah that makes sense

real jacinth
#

so if you're trying to use a 1432 installer on CP, it won't work

limber egret
#

?I download scarab

dense shuttleBOT
weak wharf
#

use scarab if he's on the latest patch

#

My nail isnt doing any damage to anything

#

i uninstalled the mods

#

still nothing

real jacinth
#

nail dmg is stored in your save file

#

so uninstalling mods wouldn't do anything

#

you probably reduced it to 0 with debug

weak wharf
#

wait

#

im dumb ...

#

i had set the decrease damage in debug bound to x by accident

#

and thats the button i hit with

#

but how many dmg do a pure nail does???

#

how do i set it back

I'm trying to extract files from the "Randomizer 3" file but it shows up with a password section. Any recommendations?

why

languid pike
#

Why why?

real jacinth
#

why are you extracting randomizer files?

#

and from where

languid pike
#

my files?

real jacinth
#

if you want to use randomizer 3, use a 1432 installer

languid pike
#

How?

real jacinth
#

download the installer, downpatch your game to 1432, and run the installer

#

click install next to randomizer 3

languid pike
#

I did.

#

Nvm it works

my game back to life

I am sorting out Multiplayer Mod through Scarab, when adding the SpeedrunMod for a vs game, do I need to put the Master file in the 'Mods' folder or 'HKMP' folder?

real jacinth
#

dunno what you're talking about.

#

why do you have a master file? did you download the source code from github instead of the released build?

chrome hollow
#

I am trying to play multiplayer with my friend and we connected eachother and did all the hamachi stuff, and we see eachother but no one moves, last night, once, I saw him move but he didn't see me move

novel bronze
#

how do i get hk mods

real jacinth
#

from the pinned installers

#

?pins

dense shuttleBOT
chrome hollow
#

I have it installed but where should I place it?

#

in which folder

#

I placed it in mods

#

like the entire folder HKMP-0.7.2

#

and he did that too

real jacinth
#

it should just be a dll

timid trellis
#

Sorry basically trying to do a race style game with a friend using multiplayer, using the HKMP and have set up my own server which works fine. Wanted to give one person access to the SpeedrunMod for github, was downloaded but where would I need to put the SpeedrunMod file do you know?

real jacinth
#

that looks like the source code

#

which is not what you download

#

you have uncompiled code there

timid trellis
#

Ah I just looked further and found the .dll file within Build

real jacinth
#

go to the releases page of the github

timid trellis
#

Is this what I needed?

real jacinth
#

no idea. cuz i don't know where you got that

chrome hollow
shrewd swift
chrome hollow
#

thats what it looks like

#

the mods folder

#

and I can't find any dll

real jacinth
#

and what's in the hkmp folder

shrewd swift
chrome hollow
#

this^

real jacinth
#

and again

shrewd swift
real jacinth
#

you also have multiplayer server and client mods

#

which aren't hkmp

#

that's a different mp mod

#

so you haven't been using hkmp at all

timid trellis
#

Yeah for HKMP you only need the dll file:

chrome hollow
#

well how do I get it

shrewd swift
#

don t have it ?:

chrome hollow
#

lemme see on the site

real jacinth
#

click the one for 1432

chrome hollow
#

alright i found the dll

real jacinth
chrome hollow
#

I should download only the dll right?

real jacinth
#

unless you plan to set up a server, yes

chrome hollow
#

so if I want to set up a server I should get the one below it too right

real jacinth
#

yes

chrome hollow
#

alright

real jacinth
#

and follow the instructions i linked

#

leads to a detailed guide on setting things up

#

and uninstall multiplayer client and server

#

you don't need those

chrome hollow
#

okay

past wadi
#

hey, can i dupe a save file for another slot ?

real jacinth
#

sure

past wadi
#

how ?

chrome hollow
#

and do I need to put the HKMPServer.exe in the mods file?

#

or just run it

real jacinth
#

read the instructions

shrewd swift
#

can i get modcommon link pls?

real jacinth
#

it's on the installer

#

oh

ahhhh got it

chrome hollow
#

thats all it says on the 1.4.3.2 version

#

site

#

so hkmp works only on 1.5+?

real jacinth
#

no

chrome hollow
real jacinth
#

they are just installed differently

#

hkmp is on the 1.5 installer

#

it is not on the 1432 ones

chrome hollow
#

so I should upgrade it back to 1.5?

real jacinth
#

so you are past the "how to install" paragraph

#

you can if you want

#

but you already installed the 1432 version

#

so now go on to how to play

chrome hollow
#

yeah i have the other one to

#

too*

past wadi
#

@real jacinth thx

chrome hollow
#

but the installation says I need to download scarab and scarab is only for 1.4.3.2

real jacinth
#

scarab is for 1.5

chrome hollow
#

yeah sorry

#

typo

real jacinth
#

like i just said, you finished the installation portion

#

so use your mouse, and scroll down

#

to "how to use"

chrome hollow
#

oh alright

real jacinth
#

because you did the portion of installing for 1432

chrome hollow
#

I understand now sorry

real jacinth
#

there's also links to other pages further down with more instructions based on what you want to do

chrome hollow
#

but shouldn't I start the HKMPServer.exe first?

real jacinth
#

read the instructions

#

pls

timid trellis
real jacinth
#

if you are on 1432, that is the right spot. if you are on 1.5, then it needs to be in a folder. this looks like you are on 1.5. are you sure this mod is built for that patch?

timid trellis
#

Meaning is the SpeedrunMod made for it? Where would I find that out as I couldn't see it on the github details

#

If it is only for 1432 I would probably need to use the 1432 HKMP which shouldn't be too hard I guess

real jacinth
#

why do you need this mod anyways

#

it does what QoL does

#

maybe a few extra things, but QoL adds a lot of this back already

#

the speedrun mod was made/intended for standalone use
