I Downloaded some mods and now my screen looks like this and i cant move
I just switched from modInstaller2 to Scarab but the mods aren't working
-Scarab is for patch 1.5
yeah I now and I switched to it
Did you read all the readmes and do you have all the dependencies
You should also list what the mods actually are
i fixed it already
so what is safe to delete in the mods folder of hollow knight because i deleted one launcher but left the custom skin file to that one in the mods folder
so what do I do. As I said earlier I switched from modInstaller 2 to Scarab and I did change from v1.4.3.2. to v1.5
hey uhm, i need help with custom knight. Have been using it, perfectly fine, but when i loaded up today my mods menu didnt display the custom knight menu and i cant change to any skins? i have uninstalled and reinstalled the mod. uninstalled all other mods and left only custom knight and nothin
Make sure to have satchel installed with it, CustomKnight on 1.5 requires it. After that, try going to your save files path and deleting all files with globalsettings in their names

where can I get a load normalizer?
If it doesnt switch, try delete the modinstaller folders (not sure how they are called)
@strong umbra #archived-modding-help message
nothing worked, deleted literally everything and reset. very confused.
is it conected to the right folder?
i also cannot pickup,, geo ? and i ONLY have customknight installed
it shows in my top left modding api customknight and satchel
but under mods menu there is Nothing listed
and i cannot pickup geo :l strange
I cant help there, sorry 
Im new to modding
I can't find the "~/.config/HKInstallerSettings.json" as I don't know where to look
deleting custom knight has fixed my geo issue.
press the windows key and then r at the same time
the type in %appdata% @strong umbra
I am not on windows sry
if you ever wrant to run customknight again jsut do this it should solve the geo issue #archived-modding-help message
is that all?
yeah but relyah hass a tutorial on that
you know the youtuber
It was tough for me to find my Hollow Knight save game file the first time. I still can never remember where they are at. I have to save the file path so I don't forget.
Below are the most common file paths that you may need to search for (If you downloaded with Steam):
- Save Game File Path:
- copy and paste the below into your file path:

this soud help you
maby
ok so i dont have that file to delete, geo still an issue if i have custom knight
well, if i have satchel apparently.
yeah loading the game with satchel = no geo pickup. deleting just satchel (still have customknight) lets me pickup Geo
tho customknight still just nowhere to be seen in menu, only listed in the top left. :l
IDKsorry
nvm, I found out that I don have time right now maybe later
but does someone hase a mod instaler for me to download cause mine ses that the version i
crecked
is crecked*
please
i own hollow knight
please
- Where did you purchase the game
- Did you ever pirate the game
CustomKnight doesn’t work without satchel
im aware. it doesnt work with it either 🙂
So both CustomKnight and satchel appear in the top left?
correct. & when satchel is installed geo is not collectable
there used to be a section for custom knight under options > mods, but that disappeared today when this all started. All i did was install vanilla map mod
I’ll give you a link to the hk modding server where you can ask about this, I don’t remember what exactly to do with the geo stuff. I might know how to fix the menu though
appreciated!
can i get my mod instale beack now 
Answer these questions
the fix for the geo issue is #4 from the customknight skin pinned message
you have to delete your settings file
I dont have that file to delete.
where can i find it. searcing my Pc said no such file existed
pc search is unreliable unless you know what you're doing
the two links at the bottom of that message are 2 ways to delete that file
.
bet bet testing
any idea why this issue didnt exist until today? It was running fine yester
day*
settings file wasn't saved properly when you closed the game yesterday
ic ic
it gets updated every time the game closes
well much appreciated! thank you
hi, scrab tells me the api-ms-win-core program is missing
Does anyone know how to fix it? By the way, I use windows
How does additional maps work? I installed it and I'm supposed to get a map but I don't have any
do I buy them from iselda?
there is someone who can help me when i try to download modinstaller there is this message what should i do?
The maps are in the areas
wdym?
You can pick them up near the 2nd bench in wp and near teh atrium bench in godhome
is there a readme for it that tells you
anyone has the new versions of benchwarp debugmod console satchel and custom knight
or can i update them through scarab ?
you can update everything through scarab
kay, thx
just click the box that says "out of date"
kk, i had to redownload it and downloaded hk on the ssd this time, i forgot that i was using scarab and applied mod installer to the same game file and it wouldnt let me open the game
i got the new path for the files with scarab so i think it already downloaded the newer version
How do I reset my DecorationMaster map?
To zero
Can I just delete the mod, mod data, and Install it again?
And how do I save my map and decoration for later
How come whenever I got back to main menu it appears blurry and only way to fix it is by re launching the game?
Post a screenshot of what you mean?
All of the dats is in the Json files in the decoration folder (the one in your save files folder, iirc) .
To save a map, copy that folder.
To delete a map, delete that folder.
umm idk why but i can use the modinstaller 2 on the latest version
can anyone help me with a problem i have with installing mods
whenever i try to run the game with mods installed it just bugs out and shows none of my save files, doesn't play the music, always shows "none" at the main title screen selection and doesnt even show that mods are installed. i have also installed the Modding API and launched the game a lot of times (with different mods) to make sure i dont just need to run the game once before playing normally. Btw i'm using Mod Manager By Gradow, v8.7.1
.
I didn't notice that in the pinned messages, thank you so much
i can't find the enemy randomizer on scarab, am i just blind or is it not available there ?
hello when I try to put the mod installer it says me: This installer needs the most recent stable version to run.Please update your game to current stable pacht
what can I do
did you check if you have the most recent update ?
are you on steam
yes
you go to library, then rightclick on hollowknight, then click on properties and then updates
ok now what
does it say there's an update available
no
then i don't know what the problem is, i don't really know a lot about modding either
I can send a screenshot but is on Spanish
If I turn off More Saves while having more than 4 saves what happens to the extra saves?
The ones that aren't on page 1
And do mods affect getting steam achievements at all

Oh they won't dissapear or corrupt that's awesome to hear
does modding include going throu files and changing stuff?? ||want to push this game to its limits for some reason||
My main file has 113% for some reason, this happened after installing mods
what can cause this (since I've heard of it happening ot other people) and can I make it 112% again
i've heard about something like benchwarp that lets you warp to any transition. is this real? if so, where can i find it?

yeah i looked through scarab already and i didn't find what i'm looking for
It's benchwarp. There's a door warp setting
oh, i didn't see that setting, thanks
can someone help.. my steam achievements are still not unlocking when modded, using a mac ver 1.5 with scarab installer here
Ayo i downloaded the grimmknight skin but i have no idea how to put it on, can someone make me a short tutorial?
Can someone help, I was doing a room + item randomizer, it was working just fine yesterday and now Im trying to go back to it and its suddenly not working anymore, the only mod that IS working for some reason is the Howwow Knyight mod to which I disabled in Scarab but it didnt fix my issue. Im unsure whats happening or how to fix it.
(please ping me if someone is able to help pls <3)
I have scarab 1.5 and already installed the custom knight mod, i just have to put it on
Danks
I've completely uninstalled Scarab, gotten rid of all of the mods, is there a new version of Scarab out? Should I even be using Scarab for mods? Is there something better I should use if I wish to mod this game?
so something else happened. seemingly the problem got fixed with the game not loading properly but the mods are apparently disabled and the "mods" tab in the settings menu is blank.
If any of the mod helpers could help me or direct me to help I'd really appreciate it.
did you clear the settings files like I suggested?
first pin
scarab is the right thing to be using
First pin as in the most recent pin or the FIRST pin in this channel?
if you're playing a randomizer save and then randomizer is updated/changed, it's very possible that randomized save won't work anymore
top of the list
could someone help me please or redirect me to the right place
Alright
first one you see
yes, the only mod files remaining are the readme's. Do i need to delete those too?
??
Hopefully this works I'll keep yall updated
i know, there are no other files like those. the only files other than those and the exe and shortcut itself are some GOG files and unity stuff
also i deleted those
i cant find any more
also, unless you have a specific reason to be on that patch, you should update your game with gog and use scarab
the only files other than those and the exe and shortcut itself are some GOG files and unity stuff
then you didn't go to the saves location
idk, scarab just closes every time i open it up and i've found no solution. ill check the pinned messages once again to see if i missed sth
it's in a completely different disc location
and if scarab is crashing, it generates a log. which you can upload here for help
oh ok, ill go check it right now
OH IM DUMB
i didn't even know about the folder i just found existing
im sorry
i just realized which folder is the saves folder
i didn't even know that existed until now
thank you so much
so now i just gotta delete those
Hello everyone, I have scarab and all the mods downloaded and in the right folder, but when I open the game none of the mods load in. Is there another step that I'm missing?
Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you all
What version does scarab use
I believe I downloaded the 1.5+ version, and my game is on current patch
Wdym all mods downloaded and in the right folder
Why are you doing stuff like that yourself. Just click the install boxes in scarab
I had clicked the install and enable boxes on each, but it's not loading into the actual game and I'm not sure why. When I checked the files to see if it was in the wrong folder everything looked ok
Sorry, not "each", I only downloaded the ones necessary for rando 4
if you look in options, is there a mods option?
Title Screen and Options Menu
Installer and Mods Location
Thank you, I'll try that as well
huh
Did you up patch after using scarab
I just checked, I do have those Assembly-Csharp files. I'll get rid of those and give you all an update
hi can someone explain me how to download the mod installer?

Then that's why
Close and reopen scarab. And install any mod
You don't need to delete any assembly files
Thank you very much, I will give that a try
That worked! Thanks again, much appreciated @real jacinth and @mossy smelt!
i used the mod installer 1 but it says that the game isn't updated, but it is, what can i do?
ok i'll try
So benchwarp seems to work, mods load it seems except the randomizer just doesnt seem to work? Im unsure why?? I have the latest version of scarab so Ik thats not the problem. Unsure whats wrong w the randomizer mod and why its not working/letting me choose settings
what are you doing
I installed these mods. I go to open up HK and the mods do load, I see the gray loading bar and it says all of my mods in the top left and yeah idk why Rando 4 isnt working?
wdym by "isn't working"
are you starting a new save?
Are you creating a new file, and selecting "Randomizer"?
like, what are you doing to say it "isn't working"
I start a new save and it doesnt let me do any of the randomization settings
did you select randomizer
it should give you 4 options
normal, steel soul, godseeker, randomizer
what's your video resolution set to
Idk why its not showing up? Also these arrows on the bottom do nothing

try clicking under classic
there might just be no graphic for it
I think that's where it is now. maybe under steel soul
your menu has changed, so it's having at least some effect
Nope I clicked everywhere for it its just nowhere
got the same problem...
Yeah I did notice that, that menu is not normal so thats a good sign, just where is the Randomizer button thing to click on
try changing your resolution to something different. like 720p
THe option should be on that screen
IIRC Menu Changer does require one of the "preset" resolutions, but any of them should be fine
Can you post your modlog?
gonna try and replicate this on my machine
why cant i turn off the 1.5 modding api
when i tried hk refused to open
Scarab may have failed to create the Backup file for your game.
You can just use "Verify Integrity" in Steam
where is the file that saves settings for mods
?
Where do I find that?
i forgot i was replying to a message xD
globalsettings files in your saves firecotry

ModLog.txt
ModLog.txt can be found in the same folder as your save files:
Windows: %APPDATA%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\
MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/unity.Team Cherry.Hollow Knight/
Linux: ~/.config/unity3d/Team Cherry/Hollow Knight/
......................................................
To easily get ModLog on Windows
- Press
⊞+R - Copy and paste this into it
%appdata%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight```
and hit "OK"
- `ModLog.txt` is in this folder.
*Note: ⊞ is the Windows button, in between Ctrl and Alt on your keyboard*
🤔
very technical term
How do I send the ModLog.txt here?
drag it into the window
Like this?
Is there a way to make it not error?
SO IT WAS THE MODS
modded 1.4 runs at about this fps, lower even
like 280 fps
modded 1.5 runs at 25 fps
vanilla runs at 300 as seen in screenshot
why does this happen, is it the api itself or a specific mod
How do I fix this?
I am chill sorry sorry
try uninstalling menu changer in scarab and then reinstalling it
Alright
hey, can anyone tell me where to find the 1.2.21 mod installer?
ok so its probably a mod
guess imma figure it out tomorrow
thats what i thought, but i'm getting in to speedrunning/(practice w/ debug mod and save states and other runners can do it
you have to do it manually
Join the Speedrun server, and then check the Resources channel there
This didnt work unfortunately
oh right with a hard save of 1.4.3.2
What mods do you have?
Generally speaking, mods don't affect most people's performance that severely.
I recommend deleting RandomizerMod.GlobalSettings.json from the save folder (and any backups) while the game is closed, and then retry. Let me know if it persists afterwards.

After deleting the .json file now what?

Just reopen the game and see if that fixes it?
Yes

YOOOOOO it shows up now time to test this and be 100% sure it works
Yeah, rando 4 has much more flexibility (in settings and in ability to generate seeds with different settings) than the older versions
vanilla item transition rando is much faster
90 minutes for vanilla item connected area room rando on rando 3 
lol
also, big fan of the hash addition.
great way to confirm settings before starting
on top of y'know.... everything else that seems 100x better in this iteration.
very nice
btw, If I have questions about the specific rando settings i'd ask in #randomizer correct?
probably better to join the speedrun server and ask in those randomizer channels
a lot more active than here
does this mean it adds item locations on the map or what
you pretty much just repeated verbatim what it says there. lol
just making sure
I have a issue with SkillUpgrade mod in Scarab, in the menu it says Failed to load
do you have itemchanger installed
is multiplayer in Scarab or is it a separate thing?
Oh, wrong mod, I was thinking that it was the bonfire mod
hkmp
Make sure that you have DebugMod installed and up-to-date.
And yeah, it might temporarily require Rando4 + dependencies to be installed.
It's supposed to be separate, but iirc Flib may have said it isn't properly separate rn
Bonfire isn't on current patch. The dev of it didn't express interest in porting it.
Rip
I'm having trouble getting Custom knight to work, when I get into hk it says its loaded in but when I go to the mods options nothing shows up
#4
I don't have any of those installed
I beleive he was refering to #4 under the 1.5 section
ah ok
how do you play godhome mode when you have the randomizer mod downlouded

Well if you can change that command to specify that scarab is recommended above others
we need to really emphsize the patch number too lol
Just to clarify, ItemChanger should be the only mod required for SkillUpgrades (untill MAPI gets fixed) - I added it as a dependency for now because there isn't really a good way to get around the restriction
Debug doesn't need to be installed, but if installed it needs to be up to date
has anyone encountered just not having a menu when the title screen appears
hmm
i fixed it but not sure which mod it was
Hello, new to the discord. I've installed all the mod stuff but am curious if there's a cheat sheet anywhere for all the keyboard shortcuts/commands while using debug?
How do i unbind a binding in debug mod
delete the globalsettings file
or press the keybind for changing them back to default. don't remember what that is tho
Yeah thats what i was wondering
pause game
go to options -> mods
debug's options
and you can reset to default there
Thanks a lot
Ahhh.
I know that it wasn't working when I had the wrong debug installed.
Thank you 
Press the Bind to a key, then press ESC if you want to completely unbind something.
For custom knight as soon as I install the file for the knight I want do I just move it to the custom knight folder or do I have to first do something (from the custom knight drive and the team white palace drive)
Like once I download it do I just move it to the custom knight folder?
Custom Knight troubleshooting, including where the files go:
#archived-modding-help message
Yes unzipped if the skin is zipped though
@ Mickely: the new pin arrangement looks nice 
Yeah I do like it
and tried to emphasize scarab way more
Hi! Is there a way to avoid Lightbringer to change my custom skins? Or do I have to deal with it?
Unfortunately You will have to deal with the lightbringer skin
Okay! Thank you very much, it's kind of disappointing, but it's cool
Why is it that when I try to install a mod from Scarab it just crashes
mod to make salubras blessing stfu?
anyone got it?
or better yet dissapear completly
Afaik that mod doesn’t exist. You will have to stick to the volume button.
QoL
Ah didn’t know that was a feature
Why is it that when i select killer whale skin it just gives me default
wait why is that there
is that added by custom knight
Swap is there for the Swapper feature
Screenshot inside killer whale then
You don't have a knight.png there
Redownload it I guess
yeah i will thank you
So if I'm using scarab, do i just put the mod i want in the directory that comes up after pressing "Open Mods" through scarab?
scarab should put them there automatically
if ur adding a mod not on scarab with ur own dll yeah
Im just trying to install benchwarp hahaha
So I switched from mod Installer 2 to Scarab. from v1.4.3.2 to v1.5. and reset the path but now when I try to install a mod Scarab crashes
oh well then just download it from scarab and itll put it there on its own
okay cool thank you
... i hate to be dumb but is that literally just done by clicking the 'installed?' option?
yup!
thank you again! 😄

Make sure scarab isn't in a zipped folder, that you move it out of downloads (but keep it with the 3 files it comes with) and that your game is closed
It still crashes when I try to download a mod from it
oh thats why it didnt work for me
i was told to maybe try asking this in here even though it’s not technically a mod problem so I hope that’s okay
basically I suddenly noticed that I’m no longer getting any sound for hollow knight as well as phasmo and I’m assuming it’s probably all unity games since all my other steam games work. has anyone else been having this problem/found a fix for this? feel like I’ve tried everything and I’m stuck 
Hello! I got Scarab + installed the more saves mod a while back and started playing on some additional save slots. But I just realized that my first original save's completion percentage got messed up and is now 32% instead of being near completion. This new number happens to be the completion percent for my 5th save slot (it was a randomizer). Does anyone know how to fix this problem?
only happens after I go to main menu for some reason
restarting game fixes it always but it is still annoying
what?
screen gets pixely
?
That's what the Ascii Camera mod is
but then why does it only turn on when I go into the main menu?
a bug I guess?
weird
may as well uninstall it then
On a different note at least my game looks shiny
if i delete and reinstall hollow knight do i lose my saves
might be worth backing them up just in case
I believe that's a value that you can change by save editing, if your save is fine and it's just the completion % got messed up. To save edit, (A feature built into more saves, but you can also do it with QoL or a website) go to the main menu > options > mods > more save settings > edit a save > select file 1 > near the top look for "completionPercent"
are there any recommended essential mods?
debug is always nice
and also, are there any mods on the scarab installer that are broken atm?
If a mod requires any extra mods scarab will install them for you
Just get whatever you want
But yeah, debug and benchwarp are pretty nice.
transtrans, discord rpc, customknight are also all neat
any good custom knights that are high quality?
most of em are good, get whatever
There's some youtube showcases if you wanna look at em before hand
that worked, thank you so much! I was pretty sad since I had finally beat pantheon of the knight which was my last completion percent
Grimmknight is a very polished skin
Woah howd u do this?
got a preset for us?

I need help how can I install texture packs on my game(my game is cracked and I can't buy it)
Buy the game, pirated games aren't supported
this is one of those rare game developers/company that I respect just buy the game lol

how do i fix the Hashtags and exlamation marks
Hi all! I'm trying to create a separate 1.4.3.2 install so I can use the randomizer mod, I've followed instructions online and have a folder set up with hollow_knight.exe, hollow_knight_Data and the steam_appid.txt files. When I try to launch it through Steam my current patch version briefly shows [Running] but nothing opens
just use scrab you can get randomiser off it
is anyone able to help me with this or am i just screwed
what skin mod is this?
What mod are you using for that? It looks different from the one that I'm familiar with
Dude if I could u think I wouldn't do that??
Aren't there any other way?
That's not an excuse for pirating the game
U don't know my condition so first of all none of ur buissness and second fuck off if u cant help
You're right I don't, still not an excuse to pirate the game. And no I don't think I will, I'm here to help people who actually purchased the game. You can't mod pirated copies, and pretty much no one here wants to help a pirate
Speak from urself
Yeah but talking from other while they don't say anything isn't rl speaking for himself is it
Laurel knight
Ah, yes. Let me get every single person in the server to tell you that they don't want to help someone who pirated the game. I've been here for a while, everyone who helps with modding looks down upon pirates
Yeah tag them and ask them
No, and not even relevant.
So shut the fuck up
No.
Pretty based
Any particular reason you're being a dick, or are you just mad you can't mod an indie game for free?
I'm not even mad or anything xDDD
Why would I be a mad of a fucking looser
Probably because anonymity is a blessing and a curse, lets you get away with being rude for no reason, even if you're in the wrong
is that a dream pfp? 
Another reason why I think that
Should I give a fuck?
No, but clearly you do
lol
a. no need to randomly get mad at us for it lmao, you can't just steal the game like that so that's on you
b. its spelled "loser"
Anyway, pirating a game is one thing, but throwing a tantrum in a discord to helpers because they won't help you mod that pirated game is another thing entirely
I don't give. A shit Abt bunch of indaind 12 year old childs who r talking bullcrap
This is where the fun begins.
Ikr. I didn't asked he's opinion I told him if he can't help fucks iff
Lets end the discussion here before he throws an n word and we have to ping mods
If you don't give a shit then just leave.
I'm reading these place and u r the annoying one so fuck off and let me read
suit yourself
take your time
Thanx
sorry for the commotion earlier, ask away
I've opened scarab after not touching it for a few days, is it normal for my mods to have disappeared?
not particularly normal, but reinstalling them probably won't break anything
I think mi2 uses the same json as scarab to keep track of what mods you have installed
Mhmm someone told me that before
so using mi2 might've reset that json, but your mods are probably still there
would you mind dm the mod?

Me and a friend got multiworld set up but we can't see eachother, any suggestions?
I'm familiar with Additional Maps, but that looked different. SFG may have updated it since I last used it though.

ty thought multiworld would let us see each other didn't read every mod on scarab yet
it should just work, unless i did a fuck up, which in theory should not be
does anyone know if you can get mods on the pc gamepass version of hollowknight?
Only the official Steam and GoG versions are supported for modding
Does randomizer 4 still show the past 5 items you picked up or is it hidden in a menu somewhere?
@hallow relic It's a separate mod called RecentItemsDisplay (or something like that), that you have to download from Scarab
tysm
Is it still possible to do that challenge for the fool skin or is it outdated?
No longer available
So the skin isn't obtainable anymore?
correct
How do you make everyone in a multiplayer server get the same item if just one person gets it in a randomizer? I've seen this before, but for me and the person I'm playing with, we don't get each other items, just our own.
item sync
Is it a setting or a separate mod?
a mod
Wow that sucks
Ah, thank you. I'll try it out.
i installed the hall of gods extra mod and vasi to help with practicing pantheons and i cannot manage to find radiance in the hall of gods does anyone know where it is?
have you tried looking at the absrad statue?
ive seen stuff on multiplayer mods but idk if its actually real is anyone able to confirm or deny and if its real perhaps send a link :)
i just read the discussion above what i said oops, so its definitely real but i havent been able to find like true multiplayer so if someone could send a link id rlly appreciate it :))
ye
You need to reach her in the pantheon for her to unlock
She's past the door on the upper right
Does anyone know of a mod to summon npcs into a scene?
I want to take a picture of every npc (not enemies) except zote around the bench in dirtmouth
Please do reply if anyone knows about this
Tysm :)
Is there a way to warp back to start after you've sat on a bench?
With benchwarp there's a "Set Start" option
Does it warp you back to the start location? I had the feeling it would set the start where you are.
It sets the warp point to the start, then just press warp
you can find a link on scarab but if you would like to manually install it use this link for 1.4 NOT 1.5 https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/922515802287116348/929437298746089543/HKMP.dll
oh ive not heard of scarab before, is that just like a mod loader?

Hi, just installed the scarab modinstaller and tested it. The game freezes when I close the menu in game with the B button on controller, but it works fine when I use 'resume' in the menu. Is this a known bug or did I do something wrong?
Guys, I accidentally uninstalled my hollow knight and when i download it again, the mod installer is not working any more, I have a mac so i have no clue how to let it work again, pls help
This is known, there's a workaround mod for it, https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/879138066961424405/899325564962344980/EscapeHatch.dll .place it in a folder in your Mods folder ("Open Mods" on scarab to get there quick) then press f3 or fn + f3 when it happens
Not working in what way?
the mod is not showing up in game
You reinstalled them? What game version are you on and what installer are you using?
Should i switch to scarab? Ive been using mod installer for a while but my friends r telling me to switch
I'd recommend it, unless you're using a mod that specifically isn't on scarab
yeah
Otherwise most the mods are there and have new updates
is there a game version that ModInstaller 2 has to run on
yes 1.4.3.2
Hm, ive been interested in speedhacks to fight bosses on 1.5x speed. Is that available on scarab? (I saw it on yt and have been interested since)
Debug has timescale changing
Oh it does
yes
Cool
you also need to patch the game to newer version
Figured. Id assume debug is on scarab?
yes
Tysm 🙏
there are just a few mod in mod installler that are not on scarab
I really only use debug, enemyhpbars, and bench warp
thats great! Looks like ill be getting scarab when i get home
yes
may i ask
how do we change the game version?
steam or gog
Ok
Thx
what
I found it
I say thx anyways cause you were open to try
oh ok
Guys, I accidentally uninstalled my hollow knight and when i download it again, the mod installer is not working any more, mods are not showing up, I have a mac so i have no clue how to let it work again, any one know how to do it?
mmm
mod installer you say right?
maybe it just auto patched to new version
that may cause the problem
???
look if its in the newer version
You never answered, what game version are you on?
@serene wing are you still there? we cant help without more info
Incase you don't know, you can check your game version in the lower left of the title screen
yeah below the "DLC" icons
i was messing around with the hollowpoint mod but when i reverted back to unmodded and verified integrity of game files i still can't heal

oh sorry i didn't read
For what Version is the grub training mod?
Current patch
Ty
Can someone send me the download for this mod?
item sync is on scarab? i dont remember seeing it
Alright, I'll download scarab. Been using Modinstaller.
oh yes it is there
Uh? Scarab just closes with nothing changing when I try to install it.
Just had to close my game. Fixed!
you also need to be on current patch but you prob know that
Welp, now the game won't open anymore.
I disabled it, and removed Scarab... still not working.
did you patched it to newer version???
i think you also need to uninstall modinstaler but im not that sure
I'll just find a way to get the mod through Modinstaller.
Gotta reinstall my game though.
i think it isnt there
also is gravity mod on scarab??
aha
and the mods dont show up
mmm weird
im using these mods
im not a modder so i cant help apart f that lol i hope someone can help you
damn
You could try using Modinstaller instead.
,mmm
me personally cant bc my pc doesnt works with 1.4
it goes really slow
but thats an option
i know but i want to try scarab
i used modinstaller before
yeah scarab is cool
and when i break the kings pass wall at the end my game freezes
already the newer
and aspid arena
mod installer
no
mod installer needs older version of the game
scarab is for the newest one
thats the problem
how to make it old
steam?
yes
wait with me pls
ok
just... check the pins
sometimes the pinned msg are confusing
dont really see how this is confusing
which one
but some others are
gonna try to disable two mods
32bit?
what
can you screenshot what youre seeing
no its 64
ok
must be the qol mod
did you have the dependencies
what
oh yeah
probably not
you need satchel for qol
qol is dependent on vasi
Nice mlg Lote pfp lol
and for customknight you need satchel
not too much cause it's supposed to auto install / when you install qol
click the one with 1.4.3.2
then
install it
sure
does anyone know why qol won't install with randomizer 4 on cp
i have a question can you use mods on 1.5 cause i did
YES
no
i cant find the modlog anywhere, in what direction is it
Where do i find the pure vessel skin?
It's in your saves folder
?saves
Saves
Windows File Paths: (Assumes Default Steam Install Path, Adjust accordingly for DRM Free or Non-Standard Steam Path)

Can someone tell me where i can find the pure vessel skin for custom knight i'm having trouble finding more skins?
I looked through the mod list but couldn't find it so sorry if it was there, but is there a mod to easily replay through White Palace for practice? Or do I just edit the save files for that
You can warp into WP with Benchwarp.
QoL keeps PoP open
can someone send me the link to the randomizer 4
Would QoL keep the first few sections of WP open as well? They close off upon completion and that’s what Im wanting to practice
You might be better off just using Debug Save States
how do i turn off scarab because the toggle api button is blocked for me if that's the reason why i can't
If the button isn't there, then it didn't make the backup correctly.
That's fine though, just use Steam's Verify Integrity
but i don't want to install and enable my mods all over again 
Verify Integrity doesn't remove your mods
so they are still in the installed section right?
ok so i don't have anything to worry about
It just reverts the file that modding API changes. To go back to modded, you just open Scarab again, and install a random mod (you just need to install something to have Scarab check for modding API. You can uninstall the mod)
thanks for the help 
How do you get skins I have the mod fir them

hello! whats download debug mode??
what
Thank you
what is this and what is split group randomizer
in rando 4
that's just a code
you can compare to what other people have to ensure your randomization is the same for races/etc
b/c your hashes should match
and the randomization options all have descriptions
i set it to everything
Iirc the Split Group stuff is the -1 stuff. That's complicated. You would want to read the ReadMe for it.
Chances are you don't want to need with it lol
screenshot the whole thing
You may need to reset your global settings, and then create a new save again
global settings?

does resetting the thing fix itemchanger being broken
¯_(ツ)_/¯
maybe
dunno what you have installed
so you may have a version mismatch too
wdym
Resetting the settings is a pretty good first thing to try, imo
There's been a few people so far that had donked up ones, and it leads to the mods "falling"
i got em from modinstaller today
so the version should be fine
well not modinstaller, scarab
or i guess it is an installer but like yea
well without full screenshots, we can't confirm that it is fine
and yeah, resetting your settings never hurts
yikes
yikes what
ran the file but it might not have worked
which is it
your screenshot ability is abysmal
win shift s 
you're cropping very strangely
here

so the mod list

so im trying to use the custom knight mod and i have the folder for the skin i want to use and it shows up in the custom knight menu but when i click on it nothing happens and its the default knight.

ok thx
- Go to saves location:
Windows:
Press [Windows key]+R to bring up the Run window. Copy the entire save path below and press okay.
Example: https://imgur.com/a/WjNmgP0
delete anything there that says globalsettings
and also upload your modlog file here
this is whats in the folder
so it should be reset i guess
Did you upload the modlog file here
hold on a sec
so like the log wont leak my fuckin name or anything right
just in case
No, but you can look through it to make sure if you're worried
why does it go on like the screenshot for most of the file
That happens from Enemy HP Bars (idk why it says debug next to it
)
Unless debug is also doing that, and I never noticed?
@past swallow go to your mods directory and delete the ItemPlacer folder
booting up
It's not supposed to be debug doing that; whichever mod is doing that is poorly coded
how to fix it
info/error/debug/etc
close your game
how can I use mods in the last version?
just
seems to work
scarab
Okay then. It should be Enemy HP Bars.
I doubt anyone has plans to clean it up though lol
Iirc Gradow made it, and Mulhima ported it to 1.5
Yeah I found it in gradow's repo
Most users don't have log level set to include debug so it probably doesn't matter in most cases
hello who wants to play hollow knight multiplayer?
its working
andres:127.0.0.1
so i cheked the pinned messages about custom knight on 1.5 and the menu isnt showing up. i followed all the instuctions and i think the only thing i could have done wrong was the folder stucture part.
Do you have the Custom Knight menu in Pause > Options > Mods ?
ah yes the floor is made out of floor
but it shows up in the top left corner
Then you didn't follow the instruction to delete the Global Setting file

and rando 4 was put on this last weekend
can anyone help me install scarab because my singular de-evolded monkey braincell cant do it
download, extract, run
If i have 2 pc and if the 2 hollow knight if installed, what happens if i downpatch in one? The other also donwpatches?
Really need help with this
For modding
what you do on one pc doesn't affect another one
and also, you don't need to downpatch for mods
unless you have a very specific one you want that's not on scarab

How do i edit the timescale? I’m a bit dumb 😅
Eh sorry never tried to, just know it is there
Ok that is fine!
You can use debug to timescale in the bind menu
Debug is on scarab as well as both modinstallers
downloaded modinstaller, installed it and Hollow Knight cant seem to open
Not sure whats going on
What patch are you on
does gamepass work with mods?
Because if you are on 1.5 then modinstaller won’t work and it will cause this. To fix the issue uninstall modinstaller and download scarab or downpatch to 1.4 a guide to which can be found in the pins
No
