and then come here if u have some qustions

#

wait

#

i will give u a link

#

to the vid

#

no worries

#

n just keep in mind that he is not using scarab so just if u want u can skip to the skin file part

honest flax
#

(tbh i never did mac or linux testing)

#

(so thats an issue)

mellow forge
#

i know i disappeared for like hours lmao but. but scarab i see does it have as many mods as the previous installer? have all mods been fixed to work on 1.5? maybe im saying this wrong im just curious

frigid fern
#

hey i got on more save and i think i can't find the charm notch option i tried seacching charm notch, charm slot

#

did u do anything?

#

like download other mods?

#

hmmm

#

well are u on mac or windows?

real jacinth
#

make sure the installer you're using matches the game patch you have

#

do you see a loading bar

#

unplug controller, launch game

#

plug in at title

#

do you have a controller plugged in tho

#

does it give an error when it crashes?

#

what patch are you on? what OS do you have? and which installer and mods are you using?

#

sounds like your installer doesn't match your game patch

#

where'd you buy the game

#

buy the game

#

you can't mod stolen copies

teal summit
#

so mods have done this to my game, i have played with mods on before and all of a sudden this happened

real jacinth
#

there's a pin for that

grave girder
mellow forge
#

well darn i gotcha
ill probably do the older patch and just wait awhile for more stuff to be added to 1.5 if thats the case

teal summit
#

well i followed the pin i think and i still have the issue, it works until i download serecore (needed for rando) and then it just breaks

native ice
#

This pin?

glacial crane
#

\ is there a hotkey to force the pause menu to appear or force the mouse cursor to be freed?

#

\ I fell through some terrain into a blank void and it won't let me pause, only inventory, but I can't Benchwarp from the inventory screen

limber egret
#

There is a key in debug but I forget what it is. It might be F6?

stiff tapir
#

i used the mouse while playing hollow knight before on my brothers pc but i cant do that on my pc. why?

#

idk if this is this is the right channel for this but i asked in hk discussion and someone told me to talk in here

#

so if i am not supposed to talk here i blame him lol

static vortex
#

i still have framework issue, i checked the pins, still same. what can i do

pliant lantern
stiff tapir
#

idk

zinc nimbus
#

hey, does randomizer work current patch? Trying to get it to work with crowd control

misty tiger
#

I have been trying this for hours and ive gotten nowhere

zinc nimbus
#

Crowd control requires current patch (will crash on 1.4) and randomizer doesn't show up in current patch so I assume they're incompatible Sadge

misty tiger
#

Ive deleted and redownloaded this mod thing and almost get it working but somethings just dont show up

#

And the room randomizer just doesnt work

#

So idk what to do

#

And honestly rn im done trying cause of tiredness

#

So please if there is anyone who can help that would be very appreciated

zinc nimbus
#

If they are incompatible, best we can do is to use Hollow Twitch (is crowd control but viewers send messages in chat like !floorspikes), as I know that can work with rando

naive moss
#

@misty tiger @zinc nimbus you can try getting help from @pliant lantern

pliant lantern
#

There is a port of Randomizer for current patch.
It's seemingly stable, but at least one person ||(I think Crasben above? lol)|| has had issues with it. At any rate, you're free to try it

#

Also, "Crowd Control" isn't new, and it doesn't require 1.5

#

The "Crowd Control" people just copy+pasted Hollow Twitch, and put it on their platform under their name, and made it require their own currency.

#

You can use Hollow Twitch on 1432 or 1.5, and it is the same thing.

#

IIRC, the Crowd Control webpage specifically links to the Hollow Twitch page for the ReadMe

zinc nimbus
#

Thanks for the info! I wasn't sure if it was a full copy/paste, good to know

pliant lantern
#

AFAIK, the only edits made were those to make it work with their own platform. I haven't heard of any actual changes to what it can do.

misty tiger
#

But my main problem is there is supposed to be certain files are not showing in the mods folder

limber egret
#

Which files?

#

Hey did you get this working at all?

@naive moss Same question

#

Your folders are not named RandomizerMod3.5 from what I can see.

misty tiger
#

So based on this video ive been using relyea's randomizer vid there supposed to be modcommon.dll playerdatadunp.dll Randomizermod3.0.dll websocket.sharp.dll SeanprCore.dll and the only one showing was the Randomizermod one

#

So yeah im confused

limber egret
#

What have you actually done so far?

#

Did you download the mods that aren't in your folder?

misty tiger
#

Well the person said theyd show up there once the hollow knight mod thing is downloaded

limber egret
#

All YouTube tutorials are massively out of date

misty tiger
#

At least the modcommon and playerdump

limber egret
#

What patch are you on and what installer are you using?

misty tiger
#

Radience host mod installer

#

And the 1.4 one

limber egret
#

So just starting from scratch:

You need to downpatch to 1.4.3.2 (3rd pin)
Get mod installer 2 (first pin)
Download all of the mods you want separately. For randomiser you'll need the mods that I'll link to next.

#

Here you go

#

You can use mod installer 1 instead if you want

misty tiger
#

Which is easier 1 or 2

#

Im gonna use 2

#

@limber egret okay what next

#

I got modinstaller 2 downloaded

limber egret
#

Did you do everything I said?

misty tiger
#

And down patch

#

Do i just open modinstaller

limber egret
#

I mean

#

Yes

misty tiger
#

Btw i warn you i am inexperienced

#

Okay got those downloaded

#

Now what

#

Do i just open hollow knight to see if it works

weak knot
#

How can I install a mod if it's not in mod installer

#

Or can I have more than 1 mod installer (i mean if it works)

limber egret
#

If you're using scarab, then apart from the new Rando port, that's all the 1.5 mods available

#

You can simply place a mod in your mods folder if you're on 1.4

weak knot
#

ok thx

cursive rock
#

Guys, how do you use use the skins on multiplayer?

limber egret
#

Check the pins for HKMP. You cannot use them on the regular multiplayer mod, only that one

misty hawk
#

does the twitch mod have some sort of filter so that peole don't abuse the setText command for TOS breaking things?

misty tiger
#

thank you

umbral sky
#

i decided to install randomizer again

pliant sandal
#

I've got the latest version of hollow knight. Don't know why this is popping up

limber egret
#

You're using the wrong/old installer

#

?i

dense shuttleBOT
pliant sandal
#

uhhh

#

So I'm guessing Scarab is the way to go?

limber egret
#

Then you got the wrong one

#

Yep

pliant sandal
#

sage jetty

#

Okayy

#

Ty

#

Btw what's the difference between 1.5 and 1.4.3.2 ?

real jacinth
#

Game engine

blissful valley
#

Which means ?

real jacinth
#

The code that makes the game run

blissful valley
#

Okay

real jacinth
#

Functionally, no difference to players

blissful valley
#

So the in game content doesn't change right ?

#

Okay nice

real jacinth
#

No

#

They overhauled the engine for some reason

blissful valley
#

minor lynx
#

My map is is really fucked up, is this a common issue? It will show me in completely different spots depending on what room I'm in. I am using the always on compass mod, would that have anything to do with it? I have tried disabling it (via mod settings) but it seems to do the same thing

real jacinth
#

Are you in sub areas

#

Like in buildings

minor lynx
#

No, I'm in Forgotten Crossroads

real jacinth
#

Do you have an example

#

Like a screenshot

minor lynx
#

I can get one, give me a sec

blissful valley
#

@minor lynx

#

do you have the 'AdditionalMaps' enabled ?

#

it breaks the compass on the map

minor lynx
#

OOOOOH

blissful valley
#

yee

minor lynx
#

that would be it

blissful valley
#

i got the same problem lol

minor lynx
#

holy shit thank you I thought I was going insane

blissful valley
#

xDD

#

np bro

minor lynx
#

I didn't know it was broken so I was like wait where the fuck am I now?!!

blissful valley
#

#

@real jacinth

#

are they enabled or disabled rn ?

real jacinth
#

disabled

blissful valley
#

ok so it's reversed

real jacinth
#

no

blissful valley
#

yes ?

real jacinth
#

you click button to do what it says

blissful valley
#

'enable' = 'disable'

real jacinth
#

it says "enable" not "enabled"

blissful valley
#

true

#

but i'm not english

real jacinth
#

so don't make assertions about english then

blissful valley
#

so that's hard to get

#

lel

#

why some mods give an error message N

#

??

real jacinth
#

because they errored

blissful valley
#

hmm

#

real jacinth
#

#

there's more than 1 error message

blissful valley
real jacinth
#

move your installer exe to desktop and run as admin

blissful valley
#

wait did you rlly understand the message or you just know the error ?

minor lynx
#

When I exit the mod menu my game freezes

real jacinth
#

real jacinth
blissful valley

minor lynx
#

real jacinth
#

sand tide
#

blissful valley
#

why shouldn't i install every mod ?

real jacinth
#

if you're making a soup, do you throw every herb in your kitchen into the pot?

blissful valley
#

#

real jacinth
sand tide
#

Can you send ModLog.txt located in the save files path?

#

It’s possible that the mod stopped working due to an update to the ModdingApi. Another mod by this user had a problem with that

#

Hello, please, I need help, I tried to install this modinstaller for windows 10, but when I try to start hollow knight it closes instantly after a small white sign appears that says "Hollow knight - unity" and a lot of numbers.

real jacinth
#

did you downpatch

feral rose
#

no downpatch

#

Here it says play, an update does not appear or it is in some other place that I download the update

real jacinth
#

to use installer 1 or 2, which are for patch 1432, you have to be on that patch

#

current patch is 1.5

#

so you have to downpatch to use that installer

If you downloaded it from Scarab, then it should automatically work.
You may need to launch your game, then close and restart it, as it's supposed to get the files it needs when it first loads if you don't have them.
If it's not working after restarting, I can post the missing files

You can’t find what where?

peak moat
#

the benchwarp stuff he said to download

wheat orchid
#

Did discord fail to load or are these messages about benchwarp somewhere that’s not modding-help

#

Also benchwarp is a mod you can find on scarab or the other mod installers if you mean that

peak moat
#

i am trying to find a room rando, item rando but a dude told me to get that to or i might have looked wrong'

wheat orchid
#

Well yeah you need benchwarp for it or you can get softlocked
Also where were you searching for it?

peak moat
#

scarab

wheat orchid
#

Screenshot scarab in a section where mods starting with b would be visible (it’s in alphabetical order)

#

Also scarab has a search bar so searching for benchwarp also works

peak moat
#

i did

#

but it doesent come up

Can you screenshot this

so, I've been using the 1.4.3 scarab or whatever version it was. Though for a while, whenever I died, it sent my camera to a dream area and I had to close and reopen the game to do literally anything since none of the controls worked after I was sent to the dream area. Now, my mods just straight up dont work and when I open hollow knight, there isnt the mod loading bar and there arent any of the mods in the top left. how do I fix?

is there a way to disable a single part of the hell mod changes?

#

the soul cap is just way too much for me lol

prime imp
#

now im even more confused that didnt really help i downloaded hamichi thing now what??

real jacinth
#

now you connect in hamachi with people you're playing with

prime imp
#

yea but how what do i put in the address and port thing

real jacinth
#

you leave the port as default

#

and you put the hamachi ip in

prime imp
#

okay

flat tide
#

i did something accidentally with debug mod, idk. i'm frozen and can't unpause

#

i can hide and unhide using f1 but the game itself isn't updating

fresh elk
#

excuse me, i have been trying set up the installer for modder and it will not allow me to install it as it would not find a file location for the hollow knight installer, i think it is because i am have downloaded hollow knight through the Xbox game pass instead of steam. Any help?

real jacinth
#

you can't mod that

fresh elk
#

ok thank you

flat tide
#

Mickely do you have any solution of my predicament?

real jacinth
#

alt+f4

flat tide
#

🥲

#

ok

pliant lantern
#

And/or you set your game's speed to 0, with the - key on the numpad

flat tide
#

ohh, alright

#

thanks

#

i'll try to see if i can recreate it

#

oh i just did it

#

i only clicked respawn, that's what killed it

#

last item in the log

pliant lantern
#

Fwiw, not all actions you can do get logged.
That aside, I've seen some people have issues with the Respawn button, and idk why.
You can always bind keys to "quick save" and "quick load" in the Save States binding page, and use that for stuff

flat tide
#

additional info is that i'm in godhome and respawning into the same room

real jacinth
#

respawn is for hazard respawns

#

not for bench respawns

#

so if a hazard respawn point isn't set properly, things happen

#

you might just be out of bounds

flat tide
#

oh...

#

hazards as in spikes and stuff?

real jacinth
#

yes

flat tide
#

makes sense

#

thank u

hey, i've tried to install the HKMP mod, and the Modding API seems to have loaded (shows text in upper left; mods menu is in options), but the mod itself isn't showing up

real jacinth

then you did it wrong

#

did you unzip the hkmp mod? are you using an installer?

#

what patch is your game

#

what other mods do you have

prime imp
#

my friend has connected to the hamachi and i own the hamachi its shows only 1member and 1 online and ive connected in game aswell and we cant see eachother

real jacinth
#

you have to be in the same hamachi room/network

#

so.... should be 2 members/2 online

charred jungle
#

as far as i can tell this is exactly what it says to do in both the mod's github and the modding api's wiki

real jacinth

I'm new to modding and had recently installed a mod installer, the one with Zote as the icon, and was trying to get the multiplayer mods on there to work. I had found a tutorial on the steam community page which said that scarab was required and I installed it. After installing scarab I installed a couple mods including one meant for multiplayer and launched Hollow Knight. When I got into the game I ran into a problem where the skins I had, that were working before, couldn't be selected. I started looking at the files thinking that the problem had something to do with some of the pre-existing mod files from mod installer conflicting with the mod files from scarab and then I deleted the mod installer mod files and at some point I tried to uninstall mod installer and scarab, and try to reinstall the mod installer. Also things got to the point where I had to verify file integrity to even open Hollow Knight. Now Hollow knight will only launch in the vanilla version not modded. I have no idea how to fix the problem, can any of you help me?

west bane
#

verifying the game files resets the modding api back to it's vanilla file, you need to relaunch the installer to install the api, as for the CK issue, #archived-modding-help message

you also dont need 1.5 to have HKMP, see pins for 1.4 HKMP

vocal siren
west bane
#

try resetting the installer

vocal siren
#

How do I do that?

west bane
#

pins

pliant sandal
#

Do I need Radiance in order to import custom skins or can I import them using Scarab?

dim hazel
#

i recently switched back to 1.5 from 1.4.3 but none of the 1.5 mods have loaded in

#

nvm i resolved the isssue

vocal siren
#

I've noticed other mod installers mentioned in the pin stuff is there any important differences in quality, or performance, or are they basically the same?

wheat orchid
#

They all do the same thing

#

Only the patch they’re for and the ui changes

since it's extremely easy to just do it that way

Hamachi is also easy. So are other vpns. And don't require giving out your actual ip

storm steppe
old violet
#

what IP did they input?

storm steppe
#

same thing

keen shale
old violet
storm steppe

got it

old violet

if you trust your friend with your IP address, you'll either need to forward 26950 to your router

otherwise, do as Mickely suggests and use the IP from hamachi or whatever

Or use a public server

# pliant lantern AFAIK, the only edits made were those to make it work with their own platform. I...

@real jacinth, @zinc nimbus

I wouldn't say it's a copy/paste job. We spent time to actually make the HollowTwitch effects confirm that they activated correctly, pause when in menus, and in states that the effects wouldn't work. Plenty of things HollowTwitch doesn't do. We followed the rules of the license that HollowKnight used, and published our changes as required. https://github.com/WarpWorld/HKTwitch It's easy enough to compare the changes and see the work put into it.

pliant lantern
#

Ah, fair enough. The re-naming of it and people who largely seemed to think it was a completely new/unique mod has probably lead my reactions to people to be short. Like, it seemed like it was branded as though it were brand new, instead of making it clear that it was an improved version of the existing mod.

rough forum
#

I'm not sure what you mean by "renaming of it". Obviously you have your HollowTwitch program, and I don't think it would be a good idea to take that name and try and use it as our own? We didn't really name it either, it's just another game supported by our software.

We wish we could control the masses of users that think it's completely new or unique, we credit things where we can to ensure users know it's based on previous work. At the end of the day your community of players that have been around a while will know HKTwitch, and our users from our community will experience Hollow Knight in a way they might not have known existed prior. All of which should hopefully bring new users into HollowKnight and spread more awareness of the game as a whole.

We always strive to make our users aware of things and give credit where it's due, even when it's not required by a license. So we're always open to constructive feedback and criticism to help make ourselves and our software better.

this is what a youtuber told me to do with it is it right?

You do need to be in 1.5

#

Your file structure is massively incorrect though

peak moat
#

what

#

bruh

limber egret
#

Screenshot your mods folder, not the Randomiser folder

#

All your mods are in your Randomiser folder, which is wrong. Once you've downloaded a mod with scarab don't move it about

#

The only mod you need to need around with is the one you're installing manually; Rando.

peak moat
#

what

limber egret
#

So:

Send a screenshot of scarab
Send a screenshot of your mods folder
Send a screenshot of your HK main menu

peak moat

slender imp
#

does anyone know if you have to do anything to make the mods load in?

im using the 1.4 loader

limber egret
#

What patch are you on?

slender imp
#

everytime i start the game nothing changes

Screenshot your HK main menu and your installer

#

ok

peak moat
slender imp
limber egret
#

Sure

#

So long as they're clear

slender imp
#

i'll do my best

limber egret
# peak moat

Okay so delete the two files (not folders) in your mods folder so you just have the two folders
Then move the three folders that are inside the Randomiser 3.5 folder into your mods folder.

slender imp
limber egret
#

After that you need to make sure your Randomiser stuff is named correctly.

As you can see

#

Nothing changes
