Also your game should be closed when deleting em

novel bronze
#

yes it is

#

deleted

#

now reinstalling corrupted kin?

native ice
#

Just launch the game, although a reinstall of corrupted kin wouldn't hurt

novel bronze
#

ok lol

#

didnt work

#

sorry

worldly cipher
#

i cant find my mod loader

#

nvm

novel yew
#

Huh?

#

Ah

worldly cipher
#

my brain stopped working lmao

novel bronze
#

oof

native ice
# novel bronze didnt work

Yea I'm not really sure, i've never seen that happen. Would you mind showing me the file path of the image you sent for the corrupted kin file

#

I don't think it'll help but just wanna double check

novel bronze
#

alright give me a sec

#

will this work?

native ice
#

Yea that's how it should be... palehmm

#

Lemme just

#

Download it myself and check if it's happening for me too

novel bronze
#

sorry

native ice
#

Nah, you're all good

novel yew
#

Yeah getting the solution to the problem rn can save so much time in the future

native ice
#

I just got the mod author to fix a small issue where it wasn't properly formatted in file structures, I really hope it didn't somehow break just because of that

#

Because of that as in they uploaded the wrong build or something

novel bronze
#

uh

#

oh god i am scared

native ice
#

Welp, it's working fine on my end

novel bronze
#

guess my device sucks

native ice
#

Wait hmm, if you install mods on scarab it shows up in game right, like a different one? I wanna make sure it's not somehow having 2 game instances and you're looking at the wrong one

novel bronze
#

huh?

#

yes others work

native ice
#

And you got to the mods folder by pressing "Open mods" on scarab?

native ice
novel bronze
#

uh no

native ice
novel bronze
#

yep

#

its hk data file

#

thats were every other mods are

native ice
#

Okay just making sure, sometimes people have more than one install of HK on accident

novel bronze
#

oof

#

also uh

#

i am sorry i think i forgot to say smth

#

i dont have the newest version of scarab installed

#

but other new mods do work fine

native ice
#

That shouldn't matter

novel bronze
#

oh sorry

native ice
#

It's fine, I just don't think that effects it

#

That's just an update to the application, not to modlinks, which tells scarab where to get the mods from

#

I think I'm also using an outdated version of scarab lmao

novel bronze
#

oh

#

nice

native ice
novel bronze
#

alright give me a sec

novel bronze
#

didnt work

#

is it possible for me to download the global settings for this mod manually?

native ice
#

I don't think the mod has a global settings file, but other mods do and sometimes those break and cause issues, and deleting em fixes it

novel bronze
#

oh

#

i see

#

i am sorry for wasting your time

#

imma just play some other mod ig

native ice
#

Oh, no you didn't at all. I'm sorry I couldn't get that fixed for you

novel bronze
#

its fine

native ice
# novel bronze its fine

I kinda forgot about the modlog, if you still care you can send it and I'll look at it, although I'm not sure how much i'll be able to get from it. It's found in your save files, if you just drag it over discord you can send it

novel bronze
#

i asume this is it

native ice
#

Yep

novel bronze
#

so it helps?

native ice
#

Well it atleast says the game knows corrupted kin is there. You installed the one off the github right?

novel bronze
#

yes

#

after you told me to

native ice
#

I just asked in the modding server, I'm not really sure what to do. It might be a while till there's a response, I'll ping you when there is one, or you can join yourself.

novel bronze
#

alright then

#

imma join so it makes it easier

craggy grove
novel yew
#

Hi

craggy grove
#

Is there any installation instructions mod installer2?

native ice
#

Install

novel yew
#

Yeah

#

native ice
#

The only other thing is you have to be on 1.4.3.2

craggy grove
#

Ok

#

What is the difference mod installer2 or scarab?

novel yew
#

Ones updated

#

River

#

How

craggy grove
#

?

novel yew
#

So basically wont work anyways

craggy grove
novel yew
#

Yeah pirated vers dont work

native ice
#

Piracy is not something that is supported in pretty much any "main" community for a game, and that includes modding communities.

HK Modding is only supported on the official Steam version and the official GoG version.

Hollow Knight goes on sale regularly, and you can keep an eye on this website for when it is:
https://isthereanydeal.com/game/hollowknight/
Note: Many vendors, such as Humble Bundle, offer the game as a Steam Key.

novel yew

Files can get corrupt or unmodded

craggy grove

Hey, could someone help me in dms? I'm having trouble with custom knight, it's not showing up in game while everything else is. I've tried reinstalling both the game and the mod but can't figure out what the problem is

delicate wigeon
#

reinstalling the game wouldnt help

#

verify game files is better

#

have you tried resetting the game to unmodded with the mod installer?

minor gyro
#

I believe so, but I'll try it again just in case

foggy light
delicate wigeon
#

oof

#

did you fix it?

foggy light
#

it doesnt support scarab?

#

delicate wigeon
#

idk what that is, i just started modding like a week ago

brazen ridge

Some knows if the mods really block archivements? Because with "solace"(give the flower) and "hope" (all stags) I did them withaught mods and also one of the endings ones also dissapear even if I did It withaut archivements. But also the speedrun 1 and 2 still are here even if I did It in a randomicer by accident.

they dont

abstract badger
novel yew
#

achievement dont block by mods

boreal sinew
#

Then why some archivements got away

novel yew
#

mayb you done it alr?

boreal sinew
#

Yeah I did It

#

Because I have Max masks but I don't have the archivement of the flower

novel yew
#

ok im not understanding

boreal sinew
#

And I have 111% I only have the 4° phanteon to go

novel yew
#

you saying that having mods deleted your achievements?

boreal sinew
#

Some of them

abstract badger
#

Maybe just wait a bit and reload the save. Sometimes it takes a while

boreal sinew
#

Or at least when changing from the old version to the newest one

boreal sinew
#

I think that also maybe I overworked Steam, Because I got a lot of archivements offline when I was in vacation and when I got back a lot of Steam archivements pup op

#

The thing is that they aren't even registred in the Game itself

#

(Why did It put It like a spoiler)

#

But welp, maybe is just steam

#

I Will just do the archivements again if nothing happens

#

I have to do steel soul after all

#

But yeah It is strange that the mods deleted some of the archivements

orchid jasper
#

is there a mod that removes double damage, yes im bad ik

covert valve
#

Just use invincibility

#

Or hornetgitgud

orchid jasper
#

i'd rather still take damage tho, it's just a cheap way of boosting difficulty

mossy smelt
#

No, it's a way of decreasing the intensity without decreasing the difficulty

#

There's no mods that do that to my knowledge, but with debug you could give yourself extra masks or smth

covert valve
#

With debug your max.base health is still 9

mossy smelt
#

Save editing? Or does the game limit that as well/keep track of individual mask shards instead of total masks?

covert valve
#

Don't know but would take to long to lower the mask count to do 1damage bosses

native ice
subtle anvil
#

native ice

Quit to menu and reload

subtle anvil
#

native ice
#

Hollow point doesn't work on new saves

night hamlet
#

thx

subtle dagger
#

Sweet, so if we're on newest version use scarab?

subtle anvil
#

ah thank you its firing now

subtle dagger
#

Alr thx

#

So sorry I'm new to pc in general so don't grt mad at me, just tryna learn the process, do I download the zip file?

subtle anvil
#

is it normal to not be able to heal with Hollow Point?

civic tiger
subtle dagger
#

Alright

civic tiger
subtle anvil
#

ooooh

subtle dagger
#

Like extract?

civic tiger
subtle dagger
#

It wont let me extract it, I click on thr button in files and it doesn't do anything

#

Never mind I'm stupid

#

Alright so it's extracted and where do I go from here?

native ice
#

open the extracted folder and run scarab

subtle dagger
#

How do I run it? I'm sorry if I'm being stupid, just completely new to this

native ice
#

Just double click the scarab app

zenith wharf
#

Upgrading to Scarab from Mod Installer. Getting a few small hiccups:
God Soul seems to not work at all. Never used it before and wanted to try.
Hitting the cancel button on controller gets me out of the pause menu but does not unpause the game, forcing me to quit.

subtle dagger
#

There isn't one

native ice
subtle dagger
#

😭how?

native ice
#

windows?

#

windows + shift + s > click and drag > ctrl + V into discord

subtle dagger
#

And do you want me to screenshot the files or?

native ice
#

the scarab folder

subtle dagger
#

Alr one sec

native ice
#

You downloaded the source code

#

not the release

subtle dagger
#

So I downloaded the wrong thing then

subtle dagger
#

ah a see, i mustve clicked the source code on accident

#

So now I extract and it should be on my desktop?

native ice
#

Yes

subtle dagger
#

Bruh my Microsoft defender stopped it

#

Lmfao

#

Oh no, can I not mod if I have it downloaded thru xbox?

#

Xbox? I actually have to buy it on steam

abstract badger
#

Is this through Xbox game pass?

subtle dagger
#

Yep

I recently switched over

To pc and figured I'd use the year I had left

proven spindle
#

i think the custombgm mods broken

native ice
#

in what way?

abstract badger
native ice
proven spindle
#

i followed all the rules and when i ran the game it was just silent

subtle dagger
#

Honestly ima just get it on steam

#

Seems way easier

abstract badger
#

Clearly it worked once lol

native ice
#

No, only recommended it once though. Just curious cause I never heard any reports on the other method either

marble compass
#

I can't open modinstaller

native ice
#

Describe the issue

abstract badger
subtle dagger
#

Should u be able to transfer save data over?

abstract badger
#

Idk probably

subtle dagger
#

Alr

abstract badger
#

Please tell us how it goes though

subtle dagger
#

Les go

native ice
#

Pretty sure it'll just be there

#

Since afaik every install, no matter where it's from, shares saves

subtle dagger
#

I really hoped I hadn't wasted 10 hours 😭

native ice
subtle dagger
#

I got stuck on the watcher knights lol

proven spindle
#

yes

#

i downloaded the .wav file, went to the place i wanted the music in, renamed it to said place's track name and moved it to the custombgm folder. when i left the room and went back in it was just silent

native ice
#

Did you try restarting?

proven spindle
#

yes

marble compass
#

this pops up when I try to open modinstaller
it roughly translates to "the process can't use the file because some other process is using the file at the moment"

real jacinth
#
  1. where did you get the installer from
  2. why are you using that installer
marble compass
#
  1. iirc from a link in a crankytemplar video
  2. what's wrong with it?
native ice
#

you should get scarab

#

?i

dense shuttleBOT
marble compass

k

subtle dagger
#

save data worked btw

#

It transfered from gamepass to steam

#

@native ice on scarab when i click open mods the app crashes, ever heard of why?

#

Does anyone know why?

proven spindle
#

i don't

#

just go to the place where you downloaded your mods ig

real jacinth
#

did you install any mods yet

#

are you using the most recent scarab build? (1.9)

subtle dagger
#

When I try to install them it closes

real jacinth
#

is your game open

subtle dagger
#

I'm using thr newest, I have hollow knight open but not a specific save

real jacinth
#

don't

#

you can't change a tire on a car that's driving

#

you can't mod a game that's running

subtle dagger
#

Ima steal that metaphor

#

Good stuff

#

Alright it worked, I can't believe I did that lol

proven spindle
subtle dagger
#

So when I have one enabled will it automatically work when I go in?

real jacinth
#

yes

subtle dagger
#

Alr

proven spindle
#

so how's the custombgm thing going?

sudden cedar
#

does custom knight work on current patch?

#

been tryign to do it and its no working

proven spindle
#

do you have scarab?

sudden cedar
#

what is that?

proven spindle
#

the modinstaller for currentpatch

sudden cedar
#

nope

sudden cedar
#

downloading it now

proven spindle
#

ok

sudden cedar
#

proven spindle
#

just extracting it is fine

sudden cedar
#

#

proven spindle

#

hi, does somebody have some sort of walkthrough on making custom knight skins?

boreal orchid
#

I think you can just install a custom knight skin, then edit the sprite sheets

#

I might be wrong

mossy smelt
#

There's a plugin for a sprite maker somewhere, don't remember where

silent igloo
#

whenever i try to play randomizer (with scarab enabled) it launches hollow knight in vanilla

mossy smelt
#

You've launched scarab and installed randomizer 4?

silent igloo
#

yup

mossy smelt
#

Is there a mods list in the top left of the main menu?

silent igloo
#

nah but its there when i dont have randomizer enabled

mossy smelt
#

So disabling rando4 makes the game boot up modded, enabling it removes the mod list?

silent igloo
#

yes

#

bassically it just changes the game into vanilla

mossy smelt
#

That's really weird

#

With rando4 enabled, look in options and tell me if there's a mods tab

silent igloo
#

nope

mossy smelt
#

Try this

novel bronze
#

whats this mean

#

you need to find the right folder for it

#

#

Steam>steamapps>common>Hollow Knight

novel yew

What if that was downloads?

novel bronze
#

oh i have to use scarab

pale rock
#

looks like you guys can help me, is their any reason scarab is stopping hollow knight from opening?

mossy smelt
#

As in, you've used scarab, installed mods, and now HK isn't launching?

pale rock
#

abstract badger
#

What patch are you on

pale rock
#

theres an error message then quickly goes away

What operating system are you using?

novel bronze
#

idk

abstract badger

mossy smelt
#

Windows. You are using windows 10.

novel bronze

mossy smelt
#

If you are using windows, should you click linux, mac, or windows?

novel bronze

#

Extract and run

novel bronze
mossy smelt
#

More info, run anyway

pale rock

Yep, now try installing something with scarab again, then launching your game

novel bronze

novel yew

You can find more in youtube videos and that

It has most of them, there are a few that aren't in the drives or were exclusive prizes for contests

Well i still like the one i use more, but thwt a very subjective thing

zenith wharf
#

Noticed while viewing skins that I cant C-dash with controller. Is this because of the update to scarab and if so how do I fix?

novel yew
#

Maybe you unbinded it

#

You can check in configs

novel bronze
#

for som reason i cant hit people

#

bugs

#

not letting me

zenith wharf
#

its mapped in game, so I imagine I'm looking for a config file? Or should I just validate files?

mossy smelt
#

Read the description smh

zenith wharf
#

I already got it

#

thanks anyway

mossy smelt
#

As for your cdashing issue, check that you didn't accidentally remove crystal heart with debug and ensure it's not your controller's trigger that's broken

zenith wharf
#

did the first right away, checked the second in dark souls. Found that something changed Hollow Knight to not check for a native controller. Toggling that option has restored trigger functionality

Probably better to just not use it, or if you really do want to, you can still downpatch and it'll most likely work on 1.4.3.2

This isn’t exactly Hollow Knight related but apparently there is a mod where you can sort of link your discord to your PS4 so people can see what you’re playing on your PS4 through discord
