I installed the room rando mod (as well as mods needed to make it run) and it wont let me attack normally only down slash, and if I use claw it only lets me jump off things on the right
so you have split claw and cursed settings enabled
aka.... it's working as intended
how would i fix it?
oh ok
how can I mod on 15?

verify your game file integrity, then relaunch scarab and install a few mods
How?
how what
where'd you buy the game
What site to go to if I want to download a skin?

Got it from a friend
Thanks
Hey boys, does anyone have the link or the file for the "Trial of the pure masochist"?
never heard of that
could be this
you're using an installer that doesn't match your game patch
Does anyone else have the issue of mod bosses not working in hall of gods?
I have IKG and Corrupted kin installed and enabled and they don't appear in hall of gods
are you in a godseeker file
But How do I know which one matches my game?

they say right next to them
No I'm in a vanilla file
Thx
Do I need to be in godseeker file?
Not the bosses but everything else
so they're not on then
Should I try to uninstall and reinstall then cause they are enabled
check in options -> mods
I checked there first and saw nothing relating to either boss
then uninstall and reinstall
if they're not showing up on title screen or in options -> mods, then they're not on
I just uninstalled and reinstalled they still aren't there is there another way to turn them on?
no
Do you know of anything that would cause weavercore not to work?
Dude can i get the thing to select path
I uninstalled and reinstalled it because it wasn't showing up in the mods list either but it still won't work
Or, to clear your settings files manually:
#archived-modding-help message
could try this. and delete anything that says globalsettings
try play on the 1.4.3.2 version this happned with me whem i was trying to put skins or using the child of light mod
Like i having problems i cant take geo and any mods dont appear or work
So turns out all the mods I was having issues with were inside a folder that was named properly but it was just the mod folder in a folder
when i play hte title screen doesnt show the mods and when i go to the save files it just says loading

do a bit of scrolling
and when i go to options then mods menu it doesnt show my mods and i cant leave the mods section
and there is no music
is there a version for windows? I can not find it
i found her
does anyone know if the hollow knight multiplayer mod works windows to mac?
yes
woah i was not expecting that, awesome!
sorry to have more questions, but do you know how to fix a problem where scarab won't boot up at all on mac?
I tried uinstalling and reinstalling hollowknight, as well as making sure my mac is up to date
did you unzip scarab from the file and did you get the windows zip
I got the mac one, and I unzipped it
is your game closed
yes
where did you buy the game from
steam
right click it. show contents. run the scarab file in MacOS folder
^
okay
wow it opened!! thank you so much!!
I should be able to take it from here, I was able to get it to work on windows fine,
I just have to enable to the mods I want and then launch the software right?
Or do I need to put scarab in the local files first?
so I'm having a problem with the mods
nvm about me, It's working great!
I'm trying to play it on the most recent version which my two friends are doing perfectly fine no problems but for some reason the mods aren't loading at all for me when I launch the game with all the mods installed
so it's just vanilla hollow knight
and you sure you have right installer?
we dont have a modinstaller called radiance
thats a mod installer?

i tried launching hk with my usual mods but not only do they not show up in the top left, they arent even active even tho scarab says they are, and they are in the mods folder
scarab mods arent working for some reason, latest version
downloaded it after modinstaller wouldnt open and modinstaller might be messing with it
so i was playing in my 112 save and accidentally loaded savestate (which i placed in another save)
now it looks like my 112 save got overwritten by the other save
is there a way to retrieve it
How do I install mods via the scarab installer?
you click on the install thing
is there a way to remove items from one's inventory

Thank you, but according to the pins Custom Knight should be working, I'm on 1.4.3.2. The UI for both Custom Knight and Benchwarp don't show up when I pause. At the top left it says that Mono.Csharp failed to load and I'm certain it has something to do with it. They both worked in the past, and I don't know why they aren't working now.
screenshot of title screen?
so..... get rid of unofficial hk patch, and charmnotchmod
and check that the mod is enabled in options -> mods
and also delete the settings files
i download the mod, how to i change the text to english

Scroll down, 4th message
It's on the installers
hi, I have an issue where my game seems to speed up while i'm in randomizers
in normal save files it doesn't do this
Do you have sanic or debug mod?
Or QoL if you're not used to fast stags
i haven't used mods in a while and i was going to today, i booted up hk and it showed this, i uninstalled hk and trashed the 1st mod installer, i tried the second one once i reinstalled hk but doesn't work either, have any suggestions?
Use scarab
alight ill try that, thanks!
@native ice i have debug
Then you probably bound one of your keys to time scale up
i looked on my debug menu and it says that time scale is unbound
so that's why i'm so confused
Is everything getting sped up or something specific?
everything gets sped up
i slash faster
i move faster
but if i hit something everything slows down to normal again
And if you uninstall debug, does it still happen
Where do I get knight skins?

Download is in the description
thanks!

im having an issue with the mod installer
for some reason when i try to select a file path it just says that I dont have hollow knight
even when I input the specific file
Which installer are you using. Where'd you buy the game. And what file path are you telling it exactly
i copy pasted the actual file path from library

i wanna mod hk soon, just wondering which one is better?
modinstaller or scarab?
scarab
They have different purposes, Scarab is for current patch, mod installer 1/2 are for 1.4.3.2
in my opion is better using scarab
If for some reason a mod you want isn't on Scarab, then you can use mi 1/2
unless you want a specific mod
yeah im aware about the verions, i mean like which one has better mods in total and etc.
It is
like enerando
they have almost the same
Depends on what mods you want, but generally mods on scarab are more updated
aight thanks
im so confused i put all the mods into the modinstaller2 folder for hk but then when i open the game i dont see anything i dont know what to do
Why are you putting mods in mi2's folder and not just installing the mods using the installer?
Also, you probably don't need to be using 1.4.3.2
im using 1.5.78
1.4.3.2 is not the same number as 1.5.78
elaborate
so once i download it and open the folder nothing happens
i clicked everything and nothing happened
you have to extract it first
did you extract it?
then put that thing on the desktop
i did
are you on macos?
im on windows?
so you're running the extracted exe, and nothing is happening?
yup
screenshot your file explorer while trying to run it
all of these come up but then i went into every and nothing happened

Quick instructions to share and use Rando 4.0 settings to play the same seed as your friends. (Made 2022-01-10) You will need three things to make sure you are playing the exact same seed as your friends -Seed Number A chain of digits going up to 9 digits showing up on the main page of rando...
first start a rando with all the exact same seed and configs then start, click itemsync, leave the url as it is,

Also, some of these are on on the HK community drive now iirc
i downloaded the summer skin and i have scarab open, what do i do now?
Install CustomKnight, run the game, go into a file,
Pause, Options > Mods > CustomKnight
Select "Open Skin Folder" and put the Summer Folder in there.
ok
Make sure that you don't have it still zipped
and make sure that you don't have the folder in an extra folder
(It should be /summer/skin files NOT /summer/summer/skin files)
Ah cool
If you @me with skins, I'll edit the list and maintain that messages
I don't really know any lol
like, whenever it comes up I mean
Mmk
||I could probably check my convos with Dandy, because of Skin Sync project, we keep track of all new skins||
That seems like quite the task, with how scattered a lot of em can be. Also what do you do about the challenge skins? Are those accounted for?
Ah
You know what, I'm just gonna go make a thread on HKM to keep all skins that aren't in drives in
That'll make maintaining it a lot easier
That's a good idea lol
like this?
Yes, although I can't confirm the part about not having extra folders without seeing inside the skin folder
this?
Yep, that's good
Now just launch the game > load into your save > pause the game > open the options menu > open the mods menu > select custom knight > click Select skin
im somehow imortal
uhhh how does "custom skins" work exactly?
ive got debug installed but invincebility is false
I did everything right but i couldnt find how to change skin in game
esc>options>mods>custom knight>choose skin
ty
You're probably lookin for custom knight, not custom skins
yeah thats what I meant ig
but firelasto got it
Then yea, what they said
any idea why i cant take damage?
Try toggling invincibility on and off again?
You probably entered the Invincibility state. This is either from a mod breaking your game in some way, or because of finding one of the glitches that causes this
it's commonly caused when using Dreamgate with QoL installed, because of a way to enter the state when going through a transition after dgating
is one of those fucking about with dream gate and bench warp really fast?
yeah, probably
essentially if you change scenes quickly after using dgate, you can cause it
welp that makes sense

how do i undo it? dream gate again?
Restart game
i opened modinstaller2 and it says the mod api, is out of date
finally i can take damage again
Click the orange box
i do that but after couple of seconds it reloads the page automatically and the orange box is back
Is your game closed?
Drag the file over discord and send it here
Where did you purchase the game from?
does skurry use mod installer or scarab in their videos?
Ah, damn. Unfortunately you can't mod gamepass
oh
In the older videos probably mod installer, now probably Scarab. Unless they're using mods not available on Scarab
looks like this
That's 1.4.3.2
thanks
Literally all the mods he's using are available on 1.5
If you're wanting the same experience, you can probably achieve that on scarab now
Except multiplayer because that version is outdated, and was outdated even on mod installer
You can get a better version instead :P
One that doesn't break constantly
yeah ill use scarab anyways, just seems more updated
only reason you'd want to be on 1432 is either you're playing on a 32 bit device or you wanna play mods that are only on 1432 atm
like enemy rando
or any rad
does scarab automatically update?
does it tell you when the version you're using is outdated?
cool
Hey can somebody help me with hp bars?
What's the issue?
Is there something i need to do to the files to make them show up?
Because they're enabled and nothing shows up, if they show up for bosses
I was going through the read me and it looks like i need to use an older version of hk?
The readme is outdated, if you got the mod on Scarab then it's fine
Does the mod name show up in the top left of the main menu?
It does
Also are you saying that it's not showing up at all or only for bosses or what?
Uh, it might need Vasi or Satchel
I'm not sure but try installing em both
It might also have an option in the mods menu, under options > mods
I already checked mods menu and it doesn't show up
And both vasiband stachel are active
?Saves Try heading to your save files, there should be a globalsettings file for enemyhpbars

Yeah theres literally nothing in the globalsettings for enemy hp
Wait what? In the globalsettings file or the mods folder?
Try reinstalling it maybe? I'm not really sure
hey can someoine help me? idk if this is a problem of me recently installing mods, but when ever i talk to someone or like something i can skip it just automatically skips it. if no one knows what im talking about here you go
what mods you have installed?
let me pull it up
That's QOL
Where does the custom knight skin choosing menu go after you install debugmod? I can’t find it…
If you're on 1.5: Pause the game > options > mods > custom knight > select skin
Tysm
You can disable this part if QoL if you'd like
Is this 1.4 or 1.5?
1.5
I'm not sure it's here but, pause the game > options > Mods > check for a QoL option, if it's there look for a setting called fast textboxes or something
Don't 👏 get 👏 HK Mods 👏 from 👏 Nexus 👏
None of the HK Modding devs put their mods there
tfw Dwarf is already typing
That being said, that mod claims that it's for 1432
So it'll only work if you're
- Downpatched to 1432, and
- Using the 1432 installer + API
That mod isn't from any of the main community mod devs, so it's never been really looked at if it's "trustworthy" or not, fwiw
Hey where is the mod log text file? (related)
?modlog

"ModLog.txt" can be found in the same folder as your save files:

How do you set up a HKMP server to connect to?
Port forward or use a software that does it or use the public servers
anyone got ant guides on how to install scarab
Extract folder. Run
The thing just keeps on saying invalid path selected
Hamachi and scarab aren't related in any way
Did you check the 4th pin at the bottom
zaliant, the installer keeps on pulling up the prompt that I selected an invalid path
You unzip the zip and run the exe
like how do u play online 1.5 with friends on scarab
im not sure how
could someone explain full deatil?
how do i mod my switch?
asking for a friend
you don't
because the switch game is completely different from pc games, and no mods have been created for it
the only slight mod that exists is to modify the knight's sprites a la customknight
that's incredibly complicated though
Pretty sure you can still make copies of a save file and keep replacing it for switch, although it's probably a bit more complicated
can anyone help me and my friend are trying to join hollow knight and it doesnt work when we connect
and were in the same hanchi sever
Can't help if you don't give us more details
have you followed the guide above?
what deatails do u need?
What you've done, and in what way it's not working
The default as in 26950? Also, why not ZeroTier, like the guide has? I think using that might work better. There's also the option of using the public servers
No
any ideas why scarab keeps crashing for me? it happens right after I press install on any mod
Is your game open?
nope
Is scarab in an unzipped folder?
ye
i have everything installed that i need but it's not working
this is for custom Knight mod
Have you actually installed any skins?
Show me the file
Open the skin file once
so i don't know what to do

slaps face ok thank you i needed the bat
can you have/use scarab (1.5.x.x) and the 1.4.3.2 mod installer at the same time?
yes, as long as you don't try to use the 1.4.3.2 installer while your game is 1.5
also, I can still play HK in 1.5.x.x, if I "applied for the beta" for 1.4.3.2 right
if you change your installation back to 1.5, yes
aight
hey, im trying to get modcommon on for 1.5.x.x and its not open in scarab. also the github does not work. can someone help
modcommon doesn't exist for 1.5.x.x
hey. Is there a multiplayer mod for modinstaller2?
Hi, which version of modinstaller is the best?
2 or 1
also ping me when/if anyone replies
k
this is my first time doing anything with mods in hollow knight, anything i need to know?
Always read the readme files
k
is there a video i can watch to tell me what to do? cuz when i search "how to use scarab for hollow knight" modinstaller 2 stuff comes up
on youtube*
Installing scarab isn’t that complicated just get the zip from GitHub that corresponds to your os extract open install
k
Good luck! 
thanks
wait
theres 4 files which one do i click? im guessing its either Scarab or scarab.pdb
Scarab

Does anyone know how to get custom knight skins to look more clean?
when I use them the knight becomes blurry
oh one more thing, when using randomizer 4, where can i randomize enemies?
Scarab/1.5 doesn’t have enemy rando it is one of the last major mods only on 1.4
Verify game integrity through steam or delete the mods folder from hk along with your installer

k thanks
Steam is easiest
where is the mod folder

hi, i'm using custom knight with scarab on the latest patch and for some reason the monarch wings are purple now? (on all skins including default) i checked all the pngs and they don't seem to be purple, did anyone run into this before?

Is there a mod or some way to put a soul totem in dirtmouth?

i'm having issues with customknight. I"m on 1.5+, and I've added killer whale to my skins folder, and I can see it in hollow knight. I can see it in game, but when I apply it, nothing changes. When I apply swapper demo, it works. What's wrong?
Having problems with custom knight as well
Can't seem to get it to function, just freezes my game upon exiting menu
dont use B to go back in menus

I tried to have TWP update the one on the drive, but then they disbanded, so 🪦
I've done everything in the pins for custom knight trouble shooting but I still can't get the mods menu to show up in the options menu. Does anyone have any ideas?
my file structure also looks good, I have scarab installed and deleted the global .json file
@pliant lantern it worked thanks a lot
is it turned on in the mods menu in game? options > mods > ck on/off
when you deleted the .json did you also delete the .bak
Can you screenshot your pause menu?
just regular pause menu
how do i install hollow point properly
You install it from the modinstallers/scarab
Do you have the dependencies (if it has any)
Are your other mods working and if yes/no what do you have installed

Correct me if I'm wrong, but hollow point specifically doesn't work on a new file
And you're sure that Custom Knight is installed? Like, can you screenshot the .dll inside of your mods folder, including the path at the top?
Ah yeah I believe that’s true
I should read more carefully lol
Assuming it is installed, then you should probably delete the Global settings files again.
Make sure that you do that with the game closed, and you might wanna just manually do it
help i am invisible
what mods do you have running
So there's not actually a .dll file so thanks, I was thought it was installed because it was before and it worked and there was still a folder for it. But I run into another problem with scarab because it says it's installed and enabled but it does nothing when I uninstall and then reinstall and when I try to disable it scarab crashes.
what was that
is there a way I can directly download the dll file
if you disable the moresaves mod what does it do with the extra saves?
Im pretty sure you can move them somewhere else before you disable the mod and then just switch them with other saves later if you need to
which mod lets me dupe bosses?
debug mod
ty
Nothing
You can get the .dll manually.
It's on Dandy's GitHub (if you search Custom Knight GitHub it'll probably come up).
You can also find a link to the download in the modlinks file in the first pin
ModInstaller2 and Scarab are interfering with each other and even after redoing the file path for Scarab, the application doesn't list any enabled mods
are there any mods that optimize game performance
Hi, anyone can help me about using skins?

ok its working now ty
does hk gun mod work with a randomizer
have you tried it
im trying to change the ip to make another server but it just changes back to the old ip
answer yes
Okay so the problem I was having is that both installers use the same folder in appdata, is there any way to change this?
Is there any way I can use a mod partialy? Like for example using the angel knight but keep the vanilla interface
copy the hud elements over from the default skin
this shouldn't really be a problem
The default folder i dont have to touch it, right? (like deleting it after instalying the mod)
you dont need to delete it no
Okey, thanks
just copy whatever you want from teh default skin and paste it in the skin you want to change
what message in pins
the first one
There's a folder called "swapper demo", should I delet it?
are they any precations when using hollowpoint
i don't see any reason to delete it
precautions*
readme discloses them
ok
It looks like its a skin
Definitely back up your save if you are using an old save
Does anybody know how to install the modding system for 1.2.2.1?
if i want someone else on the hkmp mod to see my skin do they also have to have custom knight and the skin downloaded
yes
So I just throw the mod for it in the folder?
not necesary custom knight but the same skin installed

right click "explore package contents" then open scarab

and it has the waiting to update under everything in the folders aswell
i opened the terminal icon called "run" and it seems to have opened it

ok im on the github page
download the one with your OS name
windows if windows
mac if mac
and linux if linux
ok
ok
you should be in scarab right
yup
now install every mod you want
i reccomend debug benchwarp and randomizer 4
you can click the name of the mods for a brief description too
both at the same time?
i mean the mods shouldnt interfere with the others
so install all you want
yes
you can see at the top left corner wich mods you have installed
if everything worked correctly
i see a loading bar is that normal?
yes
your welcome
quick question, if I just want items randomized do I just enable itemchanger or do i need to enable others?
you need to enable randomixer 4
kk
and all of the dependencies
okay, done. that will make it so only items change?
would you know if there's any guides for multiplayer rando? I tried with a friend with the same settings and seed but we got different items

i'm new to scarab, is there a way to manually put .dll files into the mod loader such as any radiance?
I don’t think any rad is compatible with scarab
what does the easy mode mod do
does the mod have a readme
it says it adds a variety of assisting effects
Read the readme
it doesnt say anything specifically
gimme a minute to find it
anyone knows how to put hollow knight in 21:9 with scarab?
thx
afaik there aren't any mods that provide ultrawide support
if you want that, you'll need to find some guide online somewhere
bro how the hell does custombgm work cause i read the readme and it makes no sence to me
Looking at the readme, it looks like modlog.txt logs the name of music tracks playing in areas, and you name wav files in CustomBgm after those track names so the mod knows which audios to swap
hi, randomizer 3.0 mod is there?
randomizer 3 is outdated, use randomizer 4 on 1.5
no but how do you get the modlog.text

it's in saves
no but it says open game and open file and it'll give you a folder with the modlog and it kills my brain
?
in the read me
This mod enables the use of custom background music in a similar way old versions of CustomKnight did.
## Adding custom music
1. Install the mod
2. Have `.wav` audio files
3. Run the game once and go to the place you want the custom audio in
1. This generates a folder
2. This also shows the name of the audio, visible in `Modlog.txt`
4. Exit the game
5. Go to the `CustomBgm` folder
1. This is located next to the `CustomKnight` folder and also next to mod files
6. Move the audio files here and rename them according to step 3.2.
7. Start the game
8. Go to the place you wanted the audio in, if everything worked correctly, it should be a bit laggy for a short moment, but the audio should play
Opening the game loads the mod, which allows it to generate the folder
Opening the game and moving around also allows tracks to play, which get their names logged in modlog.txt
Having those track names lets you know what to name your wav files, so that you can place them in the CustomBgm folder for the mod to use
but how do you make it make a folder of the wav
wdym
i know you load in but how does it then make a folder of the wav file
the custom audio is a wav and it "it generates a folder" but how?
