can i disable inferno king grimm without uninstalling him

#

can anyone answer some questions about the bonfire mod?

sinful nebula

agh
having a few issues with my mods
The game keeps crashing when I try to load it, half the time a unity loading thing comes up and then closes, along with my game, the other half the time it says a breakpoint exception occurred. I've tried closing the unity window but it doesn't work. When I verify the integrity of my game files, it says one file was missing, a few hundred megabytes of download iirc, and reinstalls it, but when I boot up modlauncher again it causes the same crash. The only mods I have open are benchwarp, enemy hp bar, modcommon, rando3, and serecore. I have a handful more installed, but not enabled

spice terrace
#

none of the mods show up unless i turn them off and on in the mod settings in game and even then only QoL benchwarp and customknight show up and when i try to go into unmodded it says it cant find vanilla hollowknight

crimson jolt
#

also why is my soul/parts of my masks brown? it keeps my soul at 1/3 but i havent tested anything with masks yet, i dont have any hard mode mods enabled

mossy smelt
#

have you installed the bindings mod?

#

ie, do they look like this?

crimson jolt
mossy smelt
#

then the togglable bindings mod is enabled

#

go to a bench and press uhh cdash+down I think to disable them

crimson jolt
#

i got normal bindings

#

not toggleablebindings

mossy smelt
#

ah, you're on 1.4

crimson jolt
#

should i go to 1.5?

mossy smelt
#

no

#

but you probably shouldn't be surprised when the bindings mod applies bindings

crimson jolt
#

how do i turn off the soul thing then

#

where it blocks it

mossy smelt
#

if you want to be able to toggle the bindings, you need toggleable bindings for 1.5

crimson jolt
#

nimble swift
#

How do I download modinstaller for 1.5

hybrid sun
#

for the multiplayer mod in the mod installer do i get the (multiplayer client (alpha pre release)) or the (multiplayer server (alpha pre release))

crimson jolt
#

dont quote me on this, i might be wring, but i think client is for joining and server is for hosting

hey guys do you know why mantis gods isn't working?

tepid pewter
#

so I recently downloaded the scarab mod installer and I am currently using the custom knight mod, and benchwarp, and debug (although i havent done anything with it yet) plus some godhome stuff. the problem I came across is when i try to start a new save file the game doesnt load properly and the screen is not where it is supposed to be so I cant play unless I exit game, then reload the save and it fixes itself. this only started happening when I downloaded the mods. any fixes?

glacial crane
#

\ is there any way to summon or recall or remotely kill/absorb my shade using debug mod?

native ice
glacial crane
#

\ I'm on room randomizer and have egg shop enabled

native ice
#

I don't think that's an option then, if it's somewhere out of reach you can no clip up and hit it then go back. If you're lost on how to get back then I'm not really sure what to tell you

glacial crane
#

\ yeah I might just have to do that

#

have you looked up a guide

#

on youtube or steam

hoary junco
#

If I install Scarab v1.5.0.0, is that the "modding API" or is it something separate?

hybrid sun
#

oh

native ice
hoary junco
#

Once Scarab is open, will it download the listed mods for me, or do I still need to do so from the Google Drive?

sharp pawn
#

does anyone here have the Hollow knight rich pressence mod working?

native ice
hoary junco
#

Awesome, thank you very much for the help

native ice
sharp pawn
#

i need a guide since i havent seen anyone with it yet

native ice
#

Well yes it actually works

sharp pawn
#

enable it

pliant lantern
#

For 1.5 it should auto install the stuff it needs, as long as you're on Windows

#

For 1432 you have to manually add stuff

sharp pawn
#

im in 1.5

#

doesnt seem to work

pliant lantern
#

When you are in your main menu / pause menu, does it list that mod at the top-left?

sharp pawn
#

it says "failed to initialize please check ModLog.md"

#

or something like that

#

can you enable it yourself?

pliant lantern
sharp pawn
#

hm

pliant lantern
sharp pawn
#

alr ill try the instructions

#

thanks

#

@pliant lantern since there is already a x86_64 file for hollow knight do i replace it with the one i downloaded or can i just copy the contents and paste it into the already existing file?

pliant lantern
#

If it says there's already a file, I would probably tell it to "overwrite existing files", considering it wasn't working

sharp pawn
#

is that all you did for it to work?

native ice

#

Uhh so i was going to download the Mod Installer, but when i click on the hollow knight folder, it said this

You don't mod cracked hk

?

novel bronze
west bane
#

Correct

novel bronze
#

is it possible to transfer a save file from a cracked hollow knight to one bought from steam?

glacial crane
#

\ probably

#

\ but you will need to actually find the save files

do you know how i could do that?

I tried putting it in the hk mods folder but that did not do anything

#

Hollow Knight Recharmed
Just a small QoL mod that just reduces some of the charm's cost by 1 notch

probably not compatible with 1.5

muted field

it says so on it's changelog

wheat orchid
wheat orchid
muted field
#

okay thanks
I'm pretty sure I could Just edit the charm costs (which is what the mod does) in the save file so I'll just do that

wheat orchid
#

Yeah, no point in installing a incompatible mod to do that when you’ve already got a bunch of mods that can do that

#

Moresaves, Qol, online save editor (this one isn’t a mod)

muted field
#

I never really knew what things the Qol mod does and I still don't
is it listed somewhere, it doesn't give anymore details in the description besides doing Qol stuff

A. Happiness
B. The one most mods are on

Like benchwarp

pliant lantern
#

That doesn't help

#

Mods are are multiple versions

#

I can't find it if I don't know what version you're on

#

Or rather, I can, but I don't want to go find both versions

narrow minnow
#

I found it

arctic hill
#

In the google drive link for skins you can't press any img to check skins before downloading

pliant lantern
#

Correct.
If you want previews before downloading, then look up Skin Showcase videos

Oh, i see, thank you, i thought it was an issue from me

spiral condor
#

can someone point me in the right direction to find where the boss sprite sheets are, im working on adding some swapper bits to a custom knight 1.5 skin

novel bronze
spiral condor
#

would the 1432 ones work for custom knight 1.5?

#

im asking for just in case

pliant lantern
#

For most things they work

#

only a few sheets were changed in 1.5

#

if you're only changing Knight-related sprites, then you should be good though

spiral condor
#

im trying to change hornet and pure vessel, but idk what to name them in the custom knight thing

steel scaffold
#

Hey! Quick question: The guide I'm reading from says that the modinstaller only works with an older patch, wich I think doesn't have Grimm troupe or godhome. Is there a way to make it work with the newest patch? Bc I've seen videos with it working on the pantheons

spiral condor
#

but if you really want to use 1.5, you can use scarab, which is what i recommend due to it having more mods

#

crap

#

internet

#

the downpatched version (1432) has both the grimm troupe and godhome

#

but you can mod on current patch using scarab, which is what i use

#

scarab is also in the pins

loud saddle
#

so i woke up this morning

#

and there's something wrong with my modding api

#

it's 1.5 api

#

and my game version is 1.5

#

and

#

for some reason

#

i keep healing like

#

instantly

#

like

#

so fast

#

like a minigun

#

and it take slike 5 soul to heal 9 masks

#

and im so confused

#

can someone help me get rid of this instant heal thing

#

all i have installed is custom knight, enemy hp bar and satchel

spiral condor
#

last time i had an insta heal thing its cause i fucked with my save file so i have no idea whats causing it for you

pliant lantern
loud saddle
#

well

pliant lantern
# spiral condor im trying to change hornet and pure vessel, but idk what to name them in the cus...

You may want to use EnemyChanger.
You can use Custom Knight's Swapper, but currently it can be a technical (you essentially need to use the "scene dump" option in the menu, in the room with the thing that you want to "swap", so that you can see the file structure for it).

EnemyChanger is a lot simpler to use for stuff like that at this time, but you'll need to look up the readme for it (just googling "EnemyChanger hollow knight github" should pull it up.

#

IIRC it's by SFGrenade

spiral condor
pliant lantern
#

Ah, that's fair

spiral condor
#

the skin im tying the swaps to is pink bow, because i heard scurry mention "pretty vessel" and couldnt get the thought out of my head of a pink bow pure vessel

pliant lantern
#

So then yeah, be in the room with those bosses (for Hornet, you'll need to be in both boss rooms if you want both). Then in the Custom Knight settings, there should be an option to "dump". Press that, then close the menu and wait around for awhile. Probably just walk away from your computer for like 5-10 minutes

#

||It may not take that long. I think I've only tested a very thorough version of it, which took a long time||

glacial crane
#

\ it would make sense to give Nosk a bow too

loud saddle
#

i did what it says in the pins

#

to fix the hollow point

#

but now my custom knight wont appear in the mods options

pliant lantern
#

Those shouldn't be related. Fascinating zote
Assuming it's still at the top-left of the screen, then check the pin on fixing Custom Knight. You'll probably need to delete your Global Settings files for it

thin jetty
#

is there a way to use a mod to give me all maps but not filled out? i know the randomizer map mod can give you the whole map filled out, but i just want the maps only

glacial crane
#

\ you can do that with save file editing

thin jetty
glacial crane
#

\ in this section of the save file, just change every value after "map[AreaName]" to "true"

thin jetty
#

thanks

hallow citrus
#

Xavier, can I open the game in Unity in order to edit it?

#

Sorry for being a noob.

glacial crane
#

\ "mapDirtmouth" through "mapAbyss"

#

\ also the "spareMarkers_[r/b/y/w]" decides how many pins you can place manually on the map in-game, so if the regular number of pins isn't enough for the number of places you want to remind yourself to go back to, you can increase those, but I haven't tested it any higher than 99 myself so the interface might get glitchy in triple digits

thin jetty
#

alright, thank you

glacial crane
hallow citrus
#

ok

atomic apex
#

Do i put custom skins in the Skins or Swap folder?

rotund hinge
#

Is there a way to use the console menu to give me more geo?

novel bronze
#

You can’t mod on console

rotund hinge
#

no I mean like the menu where you can type in commands

real jacinth
#

you shouldnt be using that

rotund hinge
#

why?

real jacinth
#

debug mod has a button to give geo

rotund hinge
#

oh really?

real jacinth
#

b/c modconsole is for devs to run raw code while the game is on

rotund hinge
#

is that one of the default mods already given to you?

real jacinth
#

for development testing

rotund hinge
#

oh ok

real jacinth
#

debug is on the installers

#

if that's what that question means

rotund hinge
#

like yk how the modding app has some already ready to use mods?

#

is debug one of those?

i just said yes

# novel bronze what do i do when it says please choose path

Select your file path, if you don't know where that is then you can find it by going to your steam library > right clicking HK > properties > local files > browse > this will put you in the file you need to give the installer, check the pathing

spiral condor
#

can someone help me debug hkmp, ive tried everythign me and other people can think of (dissabling a few unneeded mods, dissabling custom knight, removing the skins from my hkmp folder, restarting hollow knight, swapping hosts, leaving and reentering the room, and more that i cant remember) but i still cant see my friend

#

nothing works

#

im on 1.5 scarab btw

native ice
#

What have you done so far? Are you both in a zerotier/hamachi group?

spiral condor
#

we are both in a hamachi group, we have dissabled 4 mods (fury fix, hall of gods extras, godhome plus, and custom knight) ive gotten rid of all my hkmp skins from its folder (in case it was causing the invisibility due to a skin error), ive left and re-entered the room multiple times, we've swapped who is hosting, we've restarted hollow knight a few times, and nothing is working

#

all of our mods are synced up, because we are doing a rando

ebon quiver
spiral condor
#

this worked in 1432 but it doesnt work in 1.5

native ice
spiral condor
#

yes i have sachel, port is 26950, we are both connected to the hosting hamachi ip, and it says connection is successful, it even tells us when the other person connects, we just cant see eachother

#

and hkmp used mod common in 1432, but mod common doesnt exist in 1.5

#

so i looked it up and apparently its not needed anymore

native ice
#

Yea

#

Do you see eachothers name tags?

spiral condor
#

no

#

the only sight i can get of him is if i turn on hitboxes, i can see where he was when i entered the room

native ice
#

And you're sure you're in the same room?

spiral condor
#

yes

#

collo bench is the room we are in

#

the red square is his hitbox, but it never moves, its just dependent on where he was when i entered

native ice
#

Uh, I'd say maybe try ZeroTier instead of hamachi, or try using the public server?

spiral condor
#

or at least i think it is

#

bug doesnt want to use zero tier because he doesnt think its hamachi, but ill suggest trying a public server and if it works then ill talk to him about zero tier

#

he is afk rn

#

so ill let you know how it goes

native ice
spiral condor
#

if you have a moment, can you meet me in collo bench to see if we can see eachother in the public? only if you have time, your probably busy

#

im in the pvp disabled

Hello

#

Can someone tell me how to put a mod on hollow knight

wheat orchid
#

Download a mod installer for your version of hollow knight (find it on the lower left part of the title screen) then run it and install mods

#

?i

dense shuttleBOT
autumn bramble
#

Does it work for any platform

mossy smelt
#

yes

wheat orchid
#

Look at what the message says

ebon quiver

#

Even on the switch version

ebon quiver
#

huh?

mossy smelt
#

oh lol

wheat orchid
#

You can’t mod that

autumn bramble
#

Dam

wheat orchid
#

Only pc is modable

#

That’s generally a thing with mods (with some exceptions)

mossy smelt
#

no hope of modding any consoles

wheat orchid
#

There is

autumn bramble
#

Oh ok lol

wheat orchid
#

But there’s at least not going to be progress for a while

#

It’s possible to get a couple custom skins (probably modifies the unity asset files, hence only a couple work since those are the only ones that have been done), but if it’s possible to modify the code in a way similar to or the same as the way we do it on pc then it might work

autumn bramble
#

I just wanted to customize my knight

wheat orchid
#

Have you done any modding on switch before?

open juniper
# native ice Elaborate please

Sorry it's late, but what basically happens is it's downloaded, and in the mod settings I have it on,but no gun or any unique additions are added

#

I'm on latest, it does show up

#

It might be some of the other mods I have enabled

#

Is this happening when you create a new save file, or are you loading a save?

open juniper
#

Whenever I create a new save, Everytime I start, I see no gun, And just the normal gui

wheat orchid
#

That’s a known bug

#

Just exit the game and load it after creating

open juniper
#

Ah okay, I'm pretty new to this so I didn't know

what is scarab

wheat orchid
#

…a mod installer

#

Scarab (1.5 mod installer)

cedar fern
#

all these are safe right?

wheat orchid
#

Yeah, this is a partnered (I think) discord server and team Cherry is on it. I don’t think discord and team Cherry would partner with viruses

cedar fern
#

Yea I was considering all that but I still wanted to ask just for the heck of it

wheat orchid
#

well I mean I could be lying

west bane
#

he's lying

cedar fern
#

also

#

another question I have is

#

How do I remove mod installer 2

#

i just realized it was for 1.4.3.2 aswell

#

lol

wheat orchid
#

Just delete the file(s) you downloaded

cedar fern
#

I did but the game still crashes

#

im gonna try

#

deleting the game

#

and then reinstalling

wheat orchid
#

well technically you asked for how to delete the installer, not mods to delete mods either use a installer or no

#

You don’t have to do that

#

You can either use a mod installer or go to your steam library, right click hk, click properties, click local files, click verify integrity

#

Some files will fail to validate (meaning they’ve been modified/modded or deleted) and they will be returned to their original state

cedar fern
#

ohhh okay

#

thanks

#

but does deleting and reinstaling work

#

since i started doing it

#

before you replied

#

so yea............

wheat orchid
cedar fern
#

okay thanks!

wheat orchid
#

Same end result

#

Im sure you get the question a lot, but is there anyway I can get ModInstaller to work with pc game pass? it wont recognize the game as the right path. Very stupid person when it comes to computers so im gonna need some help.

west bane
#

no cause of the file directory

true sparrow
#

#

heyy new to pc hollowknight is there a pinned message about how to install mods

native ice
#

...

#

Have you considered checking the pins? Basically all you need is the first one

spare galleon
#

ya i downloaded scarab but it doesnt tell me how to install or anyhtibng

#

it just gives me the loader but once im on it i have no clue

native ice
#

click the box next to "Installed?"

spare galleon
#

does that install the mod for me

native ice
#

Yes

spare galleon
#

oh ok bet thx

hazy oar
#

im trying to use the howwow knight mod but its only working in the menu and not in game

#

i think something else like the QoL mod or something might be overriding it

#

im using benchwarp, QoL, Randomizer 3.5, compass always on, and golden godhome

stable frigate
#

What is the file path that modinstaller needs?

hazy oar
#

just the file path to wherever your hollow knight is installed

stable frigate
#

would you go into hollowknightdata or just the hollow knight folder

hazy oar
#

just the hollow knight folder

stable frigate
#

like in steamapps right?

hazy oar
#

yes

#

the folder where the hollow knight application is

stable frigate
#

alr thanks

hazy oar
stable frigate
#

I don't but I have another question

#

nevermind

novel bronze
hazy oar
#

Aw

novel bronze
#

What does the howwow knight mod do?

stable frigate
#

question:

#

what would I enter

#

for all 3 of those

#

first one is the ipv4 address from hamachi

#

this is for mp mod

novel bronze
#

You know how to use mp? Lowest is where you enter your name that is shown to other

stable frigate
#

I have no idea,

#

but ok

#

define the middle one

#

do I just leave that?

it says failed to load, how do i fix this?

novel bronze

You need mod common for it

#

Debug mod isn't working for me (1.2.2.1) even tho its in the mods folder in hollow_knight_Data

ebon quiver
novel bronze
#

Only works on 1.4 or above

cursive glen
novel bronze
#

It's needed to run most mods

cursive glen
#

i use modinstaler 2 tho

novel bronze
#

Search for mod common and install it

cursive glen
#

is mod installer 2 not a common?

novel bronze
#

It's in the installer

#

Search for it in the search bar of the installer

cursive glen
#

i got modcommon but it still doesnt work

real jacinth
#

you don't have serecore

prime leaf
#

hey i installed some mods and tried to make a godseeker mode save but after the godseeker talks the screen stays white and plays the music in a loop

real jacinth
#

the installer should have installed all dependencies automatically. so enable anything you disabled

cursive glen
#

i havent disabled anything

prime leaf
#

additional maps, compass always on, enemy hp bar, godseeker plus, infinite notches, and sf core

real jacinth
#

do you have vasi

prime leaf
#

nope

real jacinth
#

install it

prime leaf
#

okay

oh it works now

no

native ice
#

Where did you put the modding api?

novel bronze
#

the modding api is hollow_knight_Data Right>

native ice
#

It goes in Managed

novel bronze
#

I have Mods in Managed

native ice
#

Yes

#

But the modding api also goes in managed

#

It should replace the existing Assembly-CSharp files in managed

Is there a way to unlock AbsRad without having to fight P5 using the debug mod? I've beaten before and don't like cheating so I wont use hacks, I'm just wondering if there's a way to unlock AbsRad without doing P5 using debug. If you noclip through the gate, it's not unlocked and just shows "I sleep amongst winding roads"

#

okay its not working

#

im trying to do the pantheon of nightmares

i tried putting it in the "%APPDATA%..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight" folder

hey um i just started doing mods like minutes ago and there are all these really intrusive menus all over my screen and the hide menu button doesn't do anything i have mod installer 2 and the mods i've installed and enabled through it so far are custom knight (i don't have any skins yet), debug mod, enemyHPbar, grimmchild upgrades, modcommon, modding API, moresaves, and show hitboxes. so does anyone know how to get rid of all the menus?

west bane
#

have you read the readmes of the mods

lime nacelle
#

what do you mean by that

vale dagger
native ice
#

You can't just put the file in, you also need the actual mod in order to make it work

native ice
vale dagger
#

oh thanks

native ice
novel bronze
#

what folder do i put modinstaller in

native ice
#

wh

#

wdym rocket?

novel bronze
#

like it needs an installation path

native ice
#

Select the Hollow Knight folder, the one that has the app and hollow_knight_Data in it.

novel bronze
#

it says invalid

native ice
#

Uh, is your game on 1.4?

novel bronze
#

yeah

native ice
#

Can you screenshot what you're selecting?

novel bronze
#

should be this right?

vale dagger
#

uh i can't dash anymore

native ice
#

yea that's the one. Odd that it's not working

vale dagger
#

well i can but when i do it bench warps me

#

and i couldn't find it in my binds

native ice
native ice
novel bronze
#

no its in downloads

#

is that why

native ice
#

Yea

vale dagger
#

not that i know of i went through all the binds and only like 5 of them are set and none of them are the same as dash

native ice
novel bronze
#

still says invalid :P

vale dagger
#

yeah i've done that

novel bronze
#

i mean my steam folder is in documents so that might be messing with it?

vale dagger
#

i don't even have bench warp installed

native ice
#

Try mod installer 2 maybe?

vale dagger
#

maybe if i install it it'll overide whatevers doing this

#

benchwarp that is

novel bronze
#

aight one sec

native ice
vale dagger
#

yeah

native ice
#

downloading benchwarp probably won't do much

#

it's probably just set to one that forces you to respawn or something

vale dagger
#

and when it warps me it gets really weird like the foreground objects get misalligned and stuff

#

yeah i looked for that in binds but it just isn't there

novel bronze
#

seriously

native ice
#

more info

#

run anyways

novel bronze
#

ah mb

#

still says invalid

#

wait nvm

there we go

#

how do you know your port?

native ice
karmic tinsel
#

yea

vale dagger
#

uh on the warping front i tried going to a different bench and it respawns me at wherever i last transitioned from like a stag travel port or a room entrance

#

benches don't reset it

#

i could stream my game if it helps

native ice
# karmic tinsel yea

and

we cant join each other im cryin

#

not really

native ice

Well, I'd say maybe try switching to ZeroTier, it may work better. Or you can try connecting to the public server, which doesn't require any VPN
Public servers:

For general use (PVP enabled)
IP:    198.100.149.208
PORT:  26950

For exclusively co-op (PVP disabled)
IP:    198.100.149.208
PORT:  26951```
#

And for the room rando thing not being synced, just restart and double check you put the exact same settings, send a screenshot to eachother or something

@native ice deleting those files worked btw so thanks keep up the good work

If you need one (like for an old build of HKMP), then you can just copy the sprint.png from another skin (like "Default")

Otherwise, you'd have to make one

does not having a sprint file make any difference at all

@celest galleon why don’t you just update the game?

Or did you, by any chance, pirate the game?

nope

i play all glitches

thats why i need this patch

idk, i tried the one downloaded from the drive and the mod loader

wheat orchid

What version of hollow knight are you on?

viral spruce

the 1.4.3.2 beta 32 bit compatibility

wheat orchid
#

So probably the outdated ones

viral spruce
#

o

#

what should i use

wheat orchid
#

Let me get a link to the 1.4.3.2 version of hkmp

viral spruce
#

i just got it of the mod loader

wheat orchid
#

You mean you got a mod called hkmp off the mod loader?

viral spruce
#

wait

#

on the mod installer it called multiplayer client and multiplayer server on the mod installer

wheat orchid
#

So not hkmp, the old ones

#

Is the app you’re using called mod installer 8.7.1 or mod installer 2?

viral spruce
#

it is just called ModInstaller

wheat orchid
#

Alright (same as the first one, that’s what it says when it’s opened)

#

Download HKMP.dll not the source code

viral spruce
#

ok

wheat orchid
#

Once it’s downloaded, in mod installer click manually install mods, then in the file explorer menu that pops up, select the downloaded file

viral spruce
#

also, should i download the hkmp server.exe

#

i think i did it

wheat orchid
#

Also have your friend do all these steps

#

do u still need to use Hamachi
