Hollow Knight is in current patch, I got the version of scarab yesterday(it was the most up-to date one), I've tried running from the desktop shortcut, steam, and the files themselves.

[brazen pasture]

if you're using customknight on 1.5 then you can modify it using Liquid.png

[novel bronze]

Thanks a lot, i Will try to get 1.5 then

I'm struggling so much with Item Sync ):

My friend and I... well, our items just don't sync.

[novel yew]

Mm

[novel yew]

All setting neeeds to be the same

Literally ALL

Need to look the exact same

Including the seed

[novel bronze]

Yup, they are.

We get the same items.

But not at the same time.

We get them individually.

[mossy smelt]

They shouldn't need to be, unless it's changed in 1.5

[novel yew]

That or lag or there is one setting changed

[mossy smelt]

When one of you hits start, it should start for both of you

[novel bronze]

We're playing in 1.4.3.2

[mossy smelt]

1.4.3.2?

[novel bronze]

And it did, we both readied up. But getting an item didn't give it to the other person.

[novel bronze]

Yeah.

[mossy smelt]

So you're both in the same room, and can see each other's names on the ready screen?

[novel bronze]

Uh-huh

[novel yew]

Uh huh?

[mossy smelt]

Why are you playing on an outdated version anyway?

[novel bronze]

We got Modinstaller, not knowing about Scarab. And we don't care to change it, because it's fine to us.

[novel bronze]

That means yes.

[mossy smelt]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[novel yew]

As being an older version, 1.4 tends to bug a bit

[mossy smelt]

For all I know the old itemsync server could be broken now that it's outdated and probably not being maintained

[real jacinth]

the same IP is being used for the new itemsync

so it's possible that 1.4 is no longer supported

[crisp vale]

How do you get skins? is there somewhere to download them?

[wheat orchid]

So saves are shared between any installation of hollow knight unless you modify the game’s code

[carmine harbor]

wow they are

thats useful

so i can just delete the pirated version and i wont lose the save?

[mossy smelt]

Yes

[carmine harbor]

scarab crashed when i tried to add a mod

i changed the path

[wheat orchid]

Was the game open?

[carmine harbor]

ye?

[wheat orchid]

Don’t

Don’t use mod installers (at least for hollow knight) with the game open

1. Installing your first mod with scarab replaces one of the game’s files to allow mods to run, this can’t happen if the file is in use (the game is on)

2. Installing or enabling any other mod won’t make it load in game until you restart the game

3. Uninstalling or disabling any mod won’t work (same reason as 1)

[carmine harbor]

alr

[umbral saffron]

Hey does anyone know where is the any rad 2.0 download link?

can't seem to find it anywhere...

[tardy stone]

Scarab keep's crashing everytime i try to install a Mod

Here some information:
I am using the latest version of both Scarab and Hollow Knight
The mod i'm trying to install is the Randomizer Mod and Custom Knight
And no the game is not open while i install the mods

[real jacinth]

send your modinstaller error log

[tardy stone]

Ok

[real jacinth]

says you have a file open

and in use

[tardy stone]

but the only files that are open while i install the mods are Discord and Scarab

[carmine harbor]

holly crap theres a sonic mod for this game

fragile purse is literally just sonic logic

[real jacinth]

where is your scarab folder? looks like it's on your D drive?

[tardy stone]

if you mean the folder with the scarab executable,it's on the download folder

[real jacinth]

all of that should be on your desktop

[tardy stone]

oh ok

[real jacinth]

together in the same folder

[carmine harbor]

what exactly does hkvr do?

you cant exactly play a 2d game in vr

[real jacinth]

click the arrow by its name

[carmine harbor]

"play hk in vr"

[real jacinth]

there you go

lets you play with vr equipment

[carmine harbor]

but how can you play a 2d game in vr

[real jacinth]

the screen you're looking at in vr is.... 2d

[carmine harbor]

so its just a floating screen infront of you?

sounds extremely dumb tbh

[real jacinth]

or.... it just lets you play through a vr headset

and if you move your head, the screen doesn't look around

if you think it sounds dumb, then don't use it

¯_(ツ)_/¯

pretty easy solution

[slender cloud]

Sorry to hijack any conversation currently happening, as I dont really have any need for help, but I'd like to mention a little hiccup I had when using the current randomizer mod and the more saves mod. My main file was save file 1, and then i used save file 5 for an item randomizer. Turns out, whatever randomizer that was applied to save file 5 was also applied to save file 1, because i guess theyre in the "same place" when listed in the save files. this also happened to my steel soul file in save file 2 being turned into a room randomizer that was supposed to only be applied to save file 6. I dont know where i should go to mention this or if it has happened before so i thought id just throw it out there. Sorry

[novel yew]

yeah thats for movement, one frame sligthly offf

its bc they are just images

[novel yew]

wich version are you

[slender cloud]

just fixed it by turning off the randomizer mod

[novel yew]

1.4 kinda bug with that 2 mods

[carmine harbor]

so theres nothing that tells me what all the sprites are?

[slender cloud]

current patch

i shouldve assumed that there was going to be an issue but i just got excited to have more saves and the randomizer so oops

but yeah i just turned off the randomizer mod and things were fine

[novel yew]

lol

[slender cloud]

i just dont know if theres anywhere else i should go

[novel yew]

noope

just look at them

and replicate them

[carmine harbor]

is there a way to slow down animations so slow that i can see the different sprites?

[novel yew]

probably not

but they are almost always in order

like still is always near of moving

[carmine harbor]

they are nowhere near in order

[slender cloud]

you can decrease timescale in game using debug mod i think

[novel yew]

you can also justvery carefully look at them

[novel yew]

yes you can do this

[carmine harbor]

does that slow down animations too?

[novel yew]

not slowing only animations, only the entire game

[slender cloud]

anyways, thanks. just wanted to let the randomizer thing be known in case it might come up again. have a good one and good luck

[novel yew]

ok

[wheat orchid]

Is randomizer working when turning it on again or any time it’s on you run into that?

[carmine harbor]

how do i slow down time with debug?

[novel yew]

press f1 in menu

[crisp vale]

for some reason when i spawn i'm invisible? and i tried walking around some and i'm still invisible

[novel yew]

then see at binds

[slender cloud]

oh, i havent checked. give me a sec

[wheat orchid]

What mods are on?

[novel yew]

mm, do you have customknight or ss but not really?

what mods do you have

[crisp vale]

i have custom knight

i don't have ss but not really

[west bane]

you need satchel / modcommon depending on what patch youre on

[novel yew]

mm maybe can be a skin that is making the proble,

you have satche;

installed?

[crisp vale]

i have satchel

[novel yew]

ok...

[west bane]

bruh

[wheat orchid]

Try swapping skins mid game

[crisp vale]

i tried

[novel yew]

also hit the fix and reload button

[west bane]

incredible

[novel yew]

if doesnt work

[crisp vale]

should i try uninstalling and reinstalling the skins?

[wheat orchid]

No

[west bane]

have you read the pinned message about customknight

[torn socket]

it says

[slender cloud]

damn, it appears that the item randomizer save file has stopped randomizing. i only did 3 checks and they all seemed to be vanilla game

[wheat orchid]

Did you ever run that save without rando?

[sick crest]

Hollow Knight keeps crashing and sending an error report when I try to run it modded. I'm on current patch and current scarab

[wheat orchid]

You sure you’re using scarab and you’re on ver 1.5?

[sick crest]

yep

[novel yew]

where did you buy it

[slender cloud]

nope, i just fixed my save file 1 by loading it without rando. it mustve fixed both somehow

[sick crest]

steam

It works fine on vanilla

[novel bronze]

do i do anything with ||brumm||? i dont remember

[wheat orchid]

And on vanilla in game it says it’s ver 1.5?

[novel yew]

gives you a charm

[wheat orchid]

Btw #hk-help

[novel bronze]

oh didnt notice im here

[wheat orchid]

That depends on your point in the story

[novel bronze]

dw im on 109%

[novel yew]

if you have brumm

[wheat orchid]

Ah ok

[novel bronze]

need ||nkg|| :C

[sick crest]

1.5.78.11833

[wheat orchid]

Alright

So you open scarab, then do what?

[sick crest]

I've got my mods selected, and double click the "hollow_knight" application in the files with scarab. It says something about an error, and disappears quickly. Error report reads: "KERNELBASE.dll caused an Access Violation (0xc0000005)

[wheat orchid]

You aren’t supposed to open the application in that dialogue

[sick crest]

oh

[wheat orchid]

You’re supposed to open the folder it’s in

Then install some mods

[sick crest]

I've got the mods

in scarab all the ones I wanted are selected

[wheat orchid]

So are you opening hollow_knight in the select path dialogue or?

[novel yew]

did you put scarab inside game folder?

[sick crest]

duplicated folder, added " - Modded" and put scarab in there

[wheat orchid]

Did you get the game from steam

[novel yew]

yes

they said

[sick crest]

yeah

[wheat orchid]

Because that blocks you from opening it unless you add a certain file

[sick crest]

oh

[wheat orchid]

I can’t exit discord rn or I run the change of not being able to open it for a while, but if I could then I’d grab a link to the downpatching guide for hollow knight from speedrun.com (or whatever it’s called), all you need to do from that is the steps in the multiple installs section

[sick crest]

okay, I'll try that

[crisp vale]

oh i just closed the game and reopened it and i exsist again

[wheat orchid]

CustomKnight can do that sometimes, especially in large rooms

i'm very confused

I've got my mods selected, and double click the "hollow_knight" application in the files with scarab.
like, why do you have a game exe in your scarab folder?

[west bane]

screenshots would make this like 10x easier lol

[sick crest]

is this not where scarab is supposed to be?

[west bane]

no

in the folder you unzip it is where i'ts supposed to be, with it's supporting files

[real jacinth]

usually just on your desktop

[sick crest]

oh

[real jacinth]

telling it to look in directories above where it actually is, is an issue

[sick crest]

re-downloaded and now it's in common

[civic tiger]

heya, I've been using modinstaller2 for a good while and i'm looking to up patch my game to 1.5 and mess around with scarab, but i'm trying to keep my 1.4.3.2 modded save and just have it as a separate installation. I'm having trouble with modinstaller tho, is there any way to change its default path to a new folder?

[novel bronze]

what mod makes u always have the wayward compass?

[novel yew]

Only on scarab

[real jacinth]

there's a list

[novel yew]

except a few

[narrow pivot]

alright

[novel yew]

here if you blind like me

https://pastebin.com/r1mEsCiy

[charred ravine]

did i need to install more

[narrow pivot]

also how do i exactly use scarab?

[novel yew]

exactly same as modinstaller

[mossy smelt]

Read the guide, it'll walk you through it

[mossy smelt]

What are you struggling with?

[narrow pivot]

i installed enemyhp bars for example from the drive folder but scarab isnt detecting it

[real jacinth]

why

it's on scarab

[novel yew]

install it inside scarab

[real jacinth]

just click the installed box in scarab

[mossy smelt]

^

[novel yew]

no need to install it via drive

[narrow pivot]

when i try it it gets stuck on an infinite loop

[novel yew]

how

[real jacinth]

wdym

[narrow pivot]

i think country restrictions

[novel yew]

be more specific pls

[narrow pivot]

lemme use a vpn

[real jacinth]

if the blue bar at the bottom is moving, it's downloading

[novel yew]

i dont think it has

country restrictions

or does it mickely

[narrow pivot]

alright

[real jacinth]

if you can download it yourself, it's not country restricted

[mossy smelt]

hell, even if it's not moving it's probably downloading

[real jacinth]

it's grabbing it from the same place

[narrow pivot]

from google drive?

[mossy smelt]

scarab pulls it from github

the drive version is probably for 1.4.3.2

[real jacinth]

https://github.com/ricardosouzag/Enemy-HP-Bars/releases/download/v2.2.0/EnemyHPBar.zip

^this is the scarab one

pulls from github

[narrow pivot]

oh alr

[real jacinth]

what do you mean infinite loop

[narrow pivot]

is the blue bar supposed to just constantly loop

[mossy smelt]

if you can download it from there fine, your country's restrictions aren't the problem

[real jacinth]

yes

that means it's running

[mossy smelt]

how long did you wait?

[real jacinth]

just wait longer

moving blue bar means it's working

[narrow pivot]

like 10 min?

either my internet is shit

[charred ravine]

xd

[narrow pivot]

and i just checked, my speed is fine

[real jacinth]

shouldn't take more than 30 seconds

[mossy smelt]

hmm, that is an unusually long time

[narrow pivot]

or

[real jacinth]

https://github.com/ricardosouzag/Enemy-HP-Bars/releases/download/v2.2.0/EnemyHPBar.zip

can you download this

[narrow pivot]

it cant detect anything

[mossy smelt]

what is "it"

[narrow pivot]

my internet

yeah this is unusually slow

0.1 mbps

tf

[mossy smelt]

scarab doesn't actively use internet when it's not DLing something

[vestal swallow]

how do you guys set up MP coop item/room rando?

[mossy smelt]

so I'm not sure what that could be, is this while it was trying to DL?

[mossy smelt]

#modding-discussion pins

[mossy smelt]

have you tried this yet?

[narrow pivot]

yes

called it

my internet isnt connecting to github properly

[real jacinth]

so you can't download it yourself manually

[mossy smelt]

weird, since the xml scarab uses is also on github

[narrow pivot]

i can, its just very very slow there etoo

too*

[real jacinth]

sounds like a "you" problem then.

unless github is down or something. but i doubt it

[narrow pivot]

turning on a vpn seemed to have fixed it

its at 2.6 mbps

now

yep

worked perfectly

[real jacinth]

that's almost a hundred

[narrow pivot]

mb lol

i wasted your times

over a problem that was due to my country

[simple mountain]

hey how do i do a randomizer with a friend

[real jacinth]

#modding-discussion pins

[vestal swallow]

tkx

[left wigeon]

theres no HKMP in the mod installer for 1.4.3.2

[real jacinth]

ItemSync - Because nobody wants to backtrack together is better. Available on Scarab.

What does it do? I pick up an item and we both get it. Simple enough, right? Only relevant to randomized items though (vanilla items excluded for now).

Instructions:

- Click Begin Randomization and Proceed, ItemSync button should appear.
*Use the hashes on the right side to verify your randomization results are the same.
- Connect to the server by an IP or domain name (Public Server IP: 18.189.16.129)
- Write a room name and click Ready
- Start Game once everyone is ready```
Github release link: <https://github.com/Shadudev/HollowKnight.MultiWorld/blob/master/ItemSyncMod/README.md> (Download using scarab, but use this link to read the readme if you'd like.)

```+ Use the Public Server IP: 18.189.16.129```

[real jacinth]

you are correct

[left wigeon]

thx 🙂

[real jacinth]

dunno why you're saying thx

that wasn't for you

[left wigeon]

oh lol, what should i do then

[real jacinth]

hkmp has to be installed manually for 1432

per the second pin

[left wigeon]

oh ok

thx

[mossy smelt]

itemsync no longer syncs settings automatically?

[real jacinth]

this is exactly what shadu wrote

so.... guess not

[hushed vale]

anyone know how to set up a synced multiplayer randomizer?

[mossy smelt]

huh

[mossy smelt]

#modding-discussion pins

[hushed vale]

thanks

[real jacinth]

it's part of second pin here now

with updated instructions

[mossy smelt]

Neat

[narrow pivot]

hollow point broken ;(

[supple rover]

hey, which scarab mod is an enemy randomizer?

oh and, my grubs and soul totems don't randomize for some reason (i have the randomizer mod on)

[real jacinth]

there isnt one

[real jacinth]

did you select those as options? is a mod failing to load?

[supple rover]

so how do the people get their enemies to randomize?

[real jacinth]

downpatch to 1432

and use an older installer

[novel bronze]

so i plan to go back to 1.5.78 soon seeing as it's much more stable now than it was before
i had modinstaller 2 for a short while but then disabled it when i verified file integrity on steam
would downloading scarab with modinstaller 2 files still in my game mess things up

[supple rover]

oh alright

[real jacinth]

no

[novel bronze]

ok sweet

[jade aurora]

my Own IP automatically changes into the default one after I start hosting? Before we installed the Itemsync mod, this didn't happen.

[zenith furnace]

Hey guys, can i have a modded hollow knight game (launch) on steam and one that isnt modded? they both have the same .exe file so no matter if i add another game they both will launch the modded version?

[real jacinth]

?guides

[dense shuttle]

https://www.speedrun.com/hollowknight/guides

[real jacinth]

read downpatching guide. there's a paragraph for multiple installed patches

yes, you can have two game versions

[zenith furnace]

I do mean to have both of them on the same patch, one for normal runs and one debug

[real jacinth]

cool

[jade aurora]

Mickely I dont want to sound annoying, but can you by any chance help with this?

[real jacinth]

with what

is hkmp working?

[jade aurora]

With this

Like the multiplayer mod

[real jacinth]

but is it working

[jade aurora]

Once I typ in my own IP and start hosting, it automatically switches to the default IP

So my friend cant join

[warm rivet]

yes its very sad

[real jacinth]

are you connected via..... zerotier? hamachi?

[jade aurora]

Zerotier

[real jacinth]

so what's the issue

your ip changing is fine

[jade aurora]

So I have the right IP on my clipboard sent it to my friend, it previously worked but now it doesnt

[real jacinth]

the start hosting button is whatever

[jade aurora]

Wait rly?

So that it automatically visually changes to the default is fine?

[real jacinth]

if everything else works fine, yeah

[warm rivet]

IT WORKED

[jade aurora]

OOOH my god, we had different ports..... I feel dumb, but thank you so much for helping Mickely your the best

[delicate nymph]

Which randomizer mod is considered the best?

[real jacinth]

4

[delicate nymph]

thx

[jade aurora]

Hey Mickely sorry but 1 small thing, is there like a way to visually see if my friend has picked an item up, like now I can still see the items he has picked up, but they just dont give me anything, is there maybe a chance to change that so the item doesnt appear at all after my friend has collected that already?

That is a lot to ask for such a good mod tho so I dont think so but I thought why not just ask

[real jacinth]

with hkmp?

no

your worlds are your own

[jade aurora]

Ah yes ofcourse

[real jacinth]

so your friend doing something in their world won't affect yours

you just see them do it

[jade aurora]

Cuz we dont see each others bosses and enemies either

I see, thank youuuuu

[real jacinth]

yes. world sync/enemy sync/boss sync isn't a thing

at least not "yet". doing that has many technical challenges

[delicate nymph]

Is Scarab used to dowload mods through it, or do I need to look for the mods elsewhere

[real jacinth]

yes

just click the installed boxes

[novel bronze]

that's odd, i need to turn on vsync now else i get screen tears while cdashing

[coral pendant]

my modinstaller says that it's not finding the game folder, but I'm selecting the correct folder, what could it be?

[real jacinth]

you're not selecting the correct folder

[coral pendant]

the correct folder is in the steam>steamapps>common folder, right?

[real jacinth]

there are lots of folders in there

[coral pendant]

but i'm selecting the hollow knight one

[real jacinth]

but is that where your game actually is

where'd you buy the game? what patch is it? what installer are you using?

[halcyon frigate]

I don't have the file Modlog.txt anywhere in my pc (yes, including the folder with my game files) . Why is it not there?

[west bane]

what game version and hwat mod loader

[novel bronze]

where did you get the game

[pliant lantern]

It's on the folder with save files, not game files

[abstract badger]

uhh not to my knowledge if there is tytpically scarab will update itself is there an issue your having

[abstract badger]

Do you have the EXACT same settings and did you check the hash before starting to make sure it was the same

afaik they can not although i do believe mods can interfere very rarely and i don't know what mods i have just heard of this issue before

[mossy smelt]

Is your seed the same as well?

yeah ok idk what the problem was but we got it running now by double checking settings 🙂

thx y'all

[crisp vale]

in the multiplayer mod, what does the port option on the side do?

halp

[abstract badger]

It must be the same as the person you wish to connect to it is a way for you to connect your port can be anything you want between 2000 and 99999 recommend port is 26950

[abstract badger]

I can only type so fast

[crisp vale]

is okay

i wasntpaying attention

[native ice]

The only time it wouldn't be 26950 is if you're joining a public server/a private one but hosted and not just VLan, or portforwarding, right?

I am not exactly Sure on that side of hkmp but to my belief your port could always be anything including 26950 it is recommended do to it being default and the one used by public servers

guys?

[novel bronze]

restart ur pc idk

[abstract badger]

There is a guide in the pins

[abstract badger]

No that’s not the fix

[native ice]

I'm prettysl sure it specifically needs to be 26950, also changing the port for the public server actually changes which you're on. 26951 is the PvP server

[abstract badger]

Unless he misspoke then it can be any thing fwiw 26951 is co-op

[native ice]

Hmm

I'm assuming context says he's not talking about portforwarding?

[crisp vale]

thing

uh

one sec

[native ice]

[crisp vale]

[abstract badger]

In this case he was talking about hosting to PCs in your house

[native ice]

Ah

I think with LAN you don't even need a port

[abstract badger]

That may be the case. I haven’t taken a look at the guide on it but I am sure it has something on that

thats the itemsync description?

no

okay ty

[real jacinth]

b/c it just does. custom menus from mods

just use A presses or your mouse

im trying to fight corrupted kin and i have both it and weavercore installed but nothing appears in the ingame mod list and its the normal lost kin fight

what patch

what installer

Scarab 1.5

[real jacinth]

screenshot your main menu

[unique dew]

Quick question. My brother has been playing HK on his very nice gaming laptop. When he transitions between rooms or stag stations, the game often crashes. He’ll load in, and can hear the bugs, etc, but the screen is black. Then the computer will be like “wait for HK to respond or exit.” Essentially, it is crashing a lot, even though he has a great computer. No mods. Plenty of memory.

you didn't ask a question

[real jacinth]

screenshot your scarab

installed or just enabled?

[real jacinth]

either

[real jacinth]

did you install these while the game was open

[lime marsh]

no

[unique dew]

How can I stop it, prevent it, help it run better, etc.

[real jacinth]

either try closing and opening your game or uninstall and reinstall the relevant mods

[real jacinth]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[lime marsh]

ok

[real jacinth]

lower resolution, turn off vsync (and cap fps). close other programs

there's like no context to your situation other than "game crashes"

so.... do things that would lower the game's strain

or verify your game files

make sure nothing's corrupted

[mossy smelt]

a "Verify mods" button would be nice for scarab

[lime marsh]

yeah still nothing

[unique dew]

How? How? And how?

[mossy smelt]

you don't know how to change a game's settings, and you don't know how to close programs?

[unique dew]

Yes.

Well…

Not Vsync I guess.

[real jacinth]

it's in the game's video options

[unique dew]

👍

[real jacinth]

what'd you do

[lime marsh]

i deleted the mods and reinstalled them

[mossy smelt]

with the game closed, hopefully?

[lime marsh]

yeah

[real jacinth]

do you have more than 1 game install?

[lime marsh]

wdym

[real jacinth]

the video game

hollow knight

[lime marsh]

no

[real jacinth]

did you install it multiple times

or uninstall/reinstall on different drives

[lime marsh]

nope

[real jacinth]

click the open mods button on scarab and screenshot what's in the mods folder

[mossy smelt]

https://tenor.com/view/john-travolta-well-where-is-it-looking-for-something-gif-5291661

where are all the mods

[real jacinth]

in the folders

check in the corrupted kin and weavercore folders

you also have inferno king grimm here

which wasn't even on the scarab list you sent

so.... starting to think your scarab is pointing to the wrong place

[abstract matrix]

How do i enable swim for randomizer 3 for version 1.4.3.2? I think a glitch made me not pick it up.

[real jacinth]

you find it

dunno what you mean by your last sentence

[abstract matrix]

According to my spoiler log, I've already picked it up.

But I still take damage when i touch water, so either my seed doesn't match my save file, or I should have it.

[mossy smelt]

where does it say it was? go there to check

[real jacinth]

did you go back to where it was again?

[abstract matrix]

yep, here right now: mantis claw

[lime marsh]

i just booted up hollow knight again and now its here?

[abstract matrix]

And i don't have split claw

[real jacinth]

have you transitioned since picking it up

[abstract matrix]

I haven't picked it up, I think i benchwarped cause I softlocked while I was attempting to pick it up, and that might've disabled it.

[real jacinth]

sounds like you're missing a mod dependency

[abstract matrix]

Oooo....

[real jacinth]

does anything say "failed to load" on the title screen

[lime marsh]

no

[real jacinth]

wasn't talking to you

[lime marsh]

sorry

[real jacinth]

yours seems like it's working now

[abstract matrix]

Sadly no.

Guess I'll just noclip through areas i need swim >.>

[lime marsh]

ok thanks i still dont know what fixed it

[real jacinth]

screenshot your title screen

[real jacinth]

are you actively connected to someone with hkmp

if you're not actively using it, disable it

but yeah, if you benchwarped while picking up the item, then you don't get it

it's gone

[abstract matrix]

...mmmn. Fun.

Thank you for the assistance, I appreciate it!

[crisp vale]

in multiplayer for some reason my other friend can't connect to my game

and he entered the IP adress and port

and there the same as mine

[west bane]

Are you port forwarding

Or is the one you're entering correct

[crisp vale]

i don't know what that is

i don't know what port forwarding is not the second thing

Will someone explain what port forwarding is?

[real jacinth]

how are you connected to each other

hamachi? zero tier?

[crisp vale]

?

i don't know what that is

i just used the multiplayer thing

this

[real jacinth]

but how are you connected to each other

[crisp vale]

uh

a server? i dunno i made a server

[real jacinth]

and how is your friend going to connect to that

if there's no connection between you

[crisp vale]

what do you mean

?

[real jacinth]

that's what port forwarding, hamachi, and zerotier are for

connecting you and your friend

[crisp vale]

i connected with my sister

but not my other friend

[real jacinth]

within the same house?

[crisp vale]

yes

[real jacinth]

so local network

[crisp vale]

hmm

can i make it online

?

[real jacinth]

yes. with port forwarding, hamachi, or zero tier

[crisp vale]

well i sent them bost the port

both*

[real jacinth]

so?

if you don't port forward with your router settings, that means nothing

[crisp vale]

i don't know what port forwarding is

[real jacinth]

exactly

so use hamachi or zero tier

[crisp vale]

i don't know what any of those are- i've never done multiplayer before

[real jacinth]

they are programs

google them

[crisp vale]

oh Okay

[real jacinth]

or read the hkmp instructions that are pinned

and you've been linked to multiple times

the instructions also describe zerotier

[crisp vale]

Okay i will look at them more better

[oak wolf]

Hi, I am trying to get the new scarab mod system to work (so I can change the Ghost's skins) but when I try to run scarab.exe from the zip file I get this error. Am I trying to execute it too soon? Is there some other step I need to do before? I tried reading messages in this channel, but I couldn't figure it out on my own.

[high nymph]

ok, so after finnicking with port forwarding, me and my friend connected to each other
we are in the same randomizer, but item sync doesnt work
he doesnt get the items i get, and vice versa

what can we look for/do to fix it?
we use same mods and versions too

[native ice]

Well for one, item sync is on Scarab, as well as randomizer 4. The only mod you have that isn't is glorious combos.

[crisp vale]

im gonna go now cause im playing a different game with my friends

i'll figure it out tomorrow

[native ice]

And, item sync should show up when starting a rando save, there'll be a button in the settings, just above the start menu, that says "Item sync (some other stuff): No" click it, then it'll have an IP address, don't change it, just click "Yes". After that, set a room name (you both need to set the same name, capitalization matters, even if all the letters are capital) then pick a name and click ready, when you both ready up it'll show the names you picked under the ready button, then just start the save

[native ice]

when I try to run scarab.exe from the zip file
Scarab shouldn't be in a zipped file

[high nymph]

yes we did that correctly, both the same room name, left the server as is, synched on

[native ice]

Also why use port forwarding instead of a VPN?

[high nymph]

cause my friend say its easier and its a nerd
lol

[native ice]

And you saw eachothers names when you started? Did your games both start at the same time? Also did you install the multiworldlib that came with the mod?

[high nymph]

so you saying we should go for scarab and not anymore 1.4.3.2?

[oak wolf]

Oh! Lol, I extracted it and now it seems to be working. Thanks:)

[high nymph]

yes yes and yes

[native ice]

I'd recommend it, unless you really want glorious combos, rando 3 has been overhauled to rando 4, it might also naturally fix your problem

[high nymph]

i guess we could run without glorious combo, since we are in a duo
sooo more finnniking, yay!
thanks for the suggestions

The HKMP guide has a bit on port forwarding I believe, check that if you haven't to avoid finnicking

[high nymph]

we were just mistakenly not connecting to the exact same port

In specific this message #4 CustomKnight skins: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1VlXmvI6KT2vzsGItY2w3rHjeCFx8DN0n

CustomKnight skins created by the group "The White Palace": https://drive.google.com/open?id=16BUDS5e4_5eRId3It318OI4jCCSIZzjx

Guide on how to use the mod (This video is for patch 1.4.3.2. For patch 1.5, put the skins in the "skins" folder that is in the "customknight" folder shown in this video): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKx9Hqzy1OM

If your skins still aren't working, then one of the following may be the cause:
**(patch 1.5): **

1. You don't have Satchel
2. The skin was applied at the main menu instead of in a game save (skins can only be applied while in a save)
3. Your skin folder is structured with extra folders (Structure should be: Managed/Mods/Customknight/Skins/[Skin folder name]/[Skin PNG files])
4. If you used Custom Knight in 1432 and upgraded to Scarab, or you're experiencing the mods menu missing, or you cannot pick up geo, then you'll need to delete customknight.globalsettings.json

This .bat will clear customknight.globalsettings.json automatically (along with other commonly messed up global settings files):
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/462200562620825600/889031834938265610/Global_Settings_Clear.bat

Or, to clear your settings files manually:
<#archived-modding-help message>

**(patch 1.4.3.2.): **
1)You don't have modcommon
2)You have moresaves installed (conflicts with UI)
3)Your skin folder is structured with extra folders (Structure should be: Managed/Mods/Customknight/[Skin folder name]/[Skin PNG files])
4)You have lightbringer or hollow point installed (conflict with customknight)

[abstract badger]

You sure you removed every .json

[remote wharf]

[abstract badger]

The entire game😮

[remote wharf]

yeah

[fickle night]

Thank you. I found the mod and got it working 🙂

[strong ridge]

Odd question. I downloaded Scarab and loaded the EasyMode mod. I wanted to mess around with some of the values, so i opened it in dnSpy and changed a value. Blue masks = 1 (instead of 2). I re-compiled and put it back in its folder. When i boot up the game, it still gives me 2 instead of the 1 i changed it to. Any ideas why? I'm very new to all of this

[zealous marsh]

how do I install scarab?

[zealous marsh]

how do I install scarab. I downloaded the zip file, but how do I install it

[novel bronze]

extract it

[mossy smelt]

move it to your desktop, extract it, run scarab

[novel bronze]

then put in on your desktop

[mossy smelt]

it's not something you install

[zealous marsh]

oh

thanks

[novel bronze]

mhm

[zealous marsh]

is there a mod to add a boss health bar?

[mossy smelt]

yes

[abstract badger]

Yes enemy hp bar on scarab

[zealous marsh]

thanks

[novel bronze]

does having a lot of mods installed make your game run slower

[native ice]

It can

[novel bronze]

cause i remember when i had modinstaller 2 my game did the funny blue circle thing on startup, which it doesn't do usually

[abstract badger]

Possibly although I have like 50 and mines ok

[novel bronze]

and i only had like 1 mod installed (ikg)

[native ice]

Some are more intensive than others, it really depends on your pc and the mods

[abstract badger]

^

[novel bronze]

i see

[small hawk]

Help-

[novel bronze]

what version of hollow knight do i need to get the mod installer to work?

1432

[abstract badger]

did you extract scarab from the zip and can you send a not so grainy image

[native ice]

They didn't, and it says they're missing api-ms-win-crt-string, I think someone shared a link to download it earlier and that fixed it for someone else but it didn't look like a trustworthy site

[small hawk]

Gah, im confused. I had the other modinstaller but it stopped opening after i re downloaded it. Is Scarab another installer?

[abstract badger]

uhh yes that is why it is named differently
what patch are you on

[small hawk]

Newest one.

Do I have to put 1.4?

[abstract badger]

did you use this link for scarab if not use this
