Yep, that worked, only took 12 minutes of straight clicking. Thanks!

ok
i solved the problem with mp connection
but now we cant see each other
anyone has a solving for this?
Does anyone know what mods will randomize enemies in Hollow Knight that works with Scarab?
uh hello
hi there
where can i download the bonfire mod?
only available thru mod installer?
Hey, im new here and idk where can I download the modinstaller2 ? Can someone help please ^^ ?
pins
omg I'm so dumb thanks!!
what is the username now
I cant seem to get the recent items plugin to work, anyone got any tips? or a better idea for an overlay
Recent items only works if you're playing Rando(mizer 4)
I know there just isnt any actual install instructions
it just gives you a dll and a pdb
It's intended that people use Scarab to install mods; if you've managed to install Randomizer 4 then the same procedure will work for Recent Items
ok so seems like modsintaller has the bonfire mod, does scarab has too?
I can't activate my modding API it says it isn't there but I can see it
does anibody know how to unpack a tar.gz file?
its for the linux version of the modloader
do I have to downpatch for sanic? im using scarab but when i try downloading it, it just gives me an error
nvm found the problem
im using scarab i cant download anything. the loading bar doesnt actualy start downloading. this issue randomly started when scarab crashed after finishing a download.im usig windows
I'm pretty sure the Linux version also uses a .zip
Did you get "linux.zip" from the Scarab releases page?
So, I have my game modded, and whenever I try to bench warp or spawn after death, it warps me and then it freezes. I can't control my character. Has anyone run into this, and does anyone have a fix?
Ive got a hollow knight mod installer and it has asked me for the location of hollow knight when I gave it that it said hollow knight needs to be updated to the newest patch and it doesn't have any updates on steam so im not Shure what to do.
-
close your game and Scarab
-
make sure that you extracted Scarab from the .zip it was originally in, and that you moved the new folder (containing 4 files) out of your Downloads folder.
-
run this script to reset Scarab: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/879138066961424405/890824593848299550/HKModInstaller_Reset.bat
-
When the script is done, right click Scarab.exe and select "run as administrator", and then click to reinstall the mods you want. Make sure each mod finishes before you click another.
You have the wrong installer. Check the pins 
What all mods do you have? Can you screenshot your pause menu please.
I had a lot, but now I only have a few
I'll test again and if it still breaks then Ill send the screenshot
what would be a good mod installer to use?
The one that matches your game patch
You can change what pools of items things shuffle with. So for example, if you only changed Charms from -1 to 1, then all checks that were originally charms, will still be charms, but would be shuffled with the other charms exclusively.
If you also made Totems 1, then all Charm and Totems would exclusively mix together, so a totem location would either have a charm or a totem.
anyone know where i can download mod installer 2
For future Rando questions though, I recommend reading the ReadMe. You can access it in the main menu by going to the Randomizer mod menu and selecting it.
ok thanks
Why do you want MI2?
cause i have no clue how mods work and someone told me to come here
Current Patch doesn't use it, which is why I ask
But check the pins for installer info
what does current patch use

if you are using current patch get scarab
where is that

Generally speaking, pins are a better thing to recommend, because further questions could be answered there. Imo ?i isn't actually useful in this channel, as long as the top pin is already covering it.
im gonna ask a whole lot a questions cause i have never used mods before
That's fine, but seriously, please read through the pins before asking
Most FAQ are there
ah ok, gotcha
how do i check the pins
nvm figured it out
yea just saw it
does it matter what file i install scarab in
i downloaded scarab and when i click on my hollow knight file it says "Select the folder containing hollow_knight_Data or Hollow Knight_Data." which i am doing anyone able to help me out
So, I figured out the first problem, but now I'm wondering how I do a room randomizer with a friend. We have the exact same settings and seed, but the room transition was not the same
nvm i fixed it
thanks its working great!!!
i downloaded scarab and put some mods and tried to run the game and it gave me a crash report named "crash_2022-02-06_182936" and now im unable to run the game with or without mods
debug mod and enemy hp bar mods arent working it says check the modlog but my brain is wayyyyy too small to understand what the modlog is saying can anyone help?

im not an expert on HK mods but i know a little how to read log errors
i cant uploadthe .txt here for some reason
try dming me
gimme a sec my pc is slow as shit
Is Scarab potentially harmful to my pc in any way?
no
How do I put in the 'Liquid.png' texture into custom knight creator without making it completely explode?
me too
Do I need to reinstall?
do you have a pirated version or did you buy it on steam?
i pirated it
What beta should I be on when using scarab?
go buy the game
you shouldn't be on a beta when using scarab
i didnt buy it cause i thought silksong was coming out soon 😦
and that's not really a justification to steal the game like that
Do I need to have HK closed when Installing mods?
yes
Okay thanks
ik but not all people can pay for the game that doesnt mean they cant enjoy it
We don’t care if you pirated the game we won’t and can’t help you with anything and that is that
everyone wants to enjoy the game just let us have our fun
it didnt work for me im trying again now
i have a big problem when i open my game with speedrun mod this happens
when im using scarab do i have to open hollow knight while enabling them or before
we aren't going to help people who pirated the game
why?
because they pirated the game 
thats just childish honestly
???
im pretyy sure team cherry themselves wouldnt be pissed
Hello I have stolen this game from you can you help me set it up
well myb thier parents arent letting them buying the game or they cant bc they dont have credit cards
thank you
That isn’t are problem
then you are evil
thanks
How very evil I am
bro im just tryna play the game is that too much to ask for
ik i just didnt buy it in high hopes of silk song coming out
and i already have the pirated version so why spend money now?
are you brazilian?
What’s silksong
idk either anymore
ayo uh
my partner just modded the game, we have grassy knight + hollow point and noticed the huds were overlapping (Same to DeathCounter)
Is there any way to just move the hud locations of any of them?
hollowpoint makes changes to the sprite and customknight doesn't account for hollowpoint, so there's a conflict, you can remove either or and it should fix the problem
Uh, I was just talking about the seperate mod huds, it doesnt overlap much with the main hud that we saw
Its just that GrassyKnight's grass counter is right on top of two other counter huds
Though the info about customknight is good to know
that might also be because of customknight
Is there a way to add custom skins in 1.2.2.1?
When you edit the gamefiles yes
could someone tell me how to install the cagney carnation mod?
Im having a problem with custom knight where i select a skin and hit fix and reload and apply, but when i open a save, the skin doesnt change and it resets to default. Is there an easy fix for this?
Idk
Alright, thanks anyways
Are you on 1.4
Are you selecting a skin in the menu or in a save?
does this happen with the latest update as well?
one was pushed out a few hours ago
Hello, my friend and I have followed the pinned step by steps to be able to play multiplayer and be able to have items synced (if they pick up an item I get it to and vice-versa). We are using Scarab and ZeroTier. We entered the same seed, same room name, and made sure our hashes were the same. Last week we played together and we were able to sync grubs and all items. Last night, we tried making a new save (we wanted to start over) and found that we could not share grub counts and some items like "Jodi's Blessing" are showing for them but not for me. When I try hosting - I can see the items but they cannot now. We were able to previously, so I am wondering if the recent update to the Scarab mods may have something to do with it? We tried uninstalling and reinstalling the mods, and we made sure everything was up to date. It did not work last night. We could sync other items but not grubs or Jodi Blessings.
Any and all help is appreciated. Thank you so much.
in menu
You need to select your skin in a save
yes
oh ok
I've been having trouble today as well. Not the exact same issue but my partner and I started a itemsync randomizer yesterday, we tried to continue it again but there is no option anywhere to connect to the itemsync server
i need some help with multiplayer stuff

my friends is trying to host a server and we can't figure out what to put for the port

so i upgraded my hollow knight to the latest version (1.5.78) and downloaded scarab and enabled the mods, yet they aren't working. i tried to see if it was in the right path and im pretty sure it is. i dont know what to do now
did you do them in that order? or did you use scarab first then update?
did you install any mods since updating?
or did you only enable
Open the mods folder and are there any mods shown
yeah, the mods are showing
i dont think i have mods folder
i just selected the same folder as hollow_knight_data
i think i gotta reset back to 1.4.3 and use mod installer 2 anyway 
Is the api showing up in the game
do i need to create a mods folder manually or something?
can mods like debug mod bug the completion %?
Im trying to help some guy, his save file data says its 111% even though all completion stuff is done
No except you mess with the game data or something broke
yeyeye
do you need hamachi to run HKMP??
yeyeye
ok thx

Scarab?
yes
Extract the folder to desktop
Then open the folder
Run scarab
Install a mod
Download the thing, make sure it matches your patch and OS
Extract to desktop, if you got Scarab put the 4 files that come out of it into a folder named “Scarab”
Open the Modinstaller/Scarab and install whatever you wanna play
Close it and run your game
Have fun

hi everyone, my mods tab in game has been kind of buggy. i using scarab and my game is in the 1.5 version. whats happening is that every time i enter in the mods tab i cant get off of it, it just holds me there and i have to restart the game to come back to normal
it happens only when im in game tho
not when im in the main menu
does anybody knows how to fix it?
im*
so my game is crashing and idk what caused the crash can someone help? I downloaded scarab and have Benchwarp, Compassalwayson, CustomKnight, HKMP, ItemChanger, MenuChanger, QoL, Randomizer 4, RandomizerCore, Satchel, and Vasi, my game worked fine up until I downloaded the CustomKnight
and when i launch my game a unity launch comes up with a picture of the knight and a red exclamation point i think its the crash handler
It might be custom knight
It’s been a bit since I’ve looked into CustomKnight, but does it really crash like that now?
i fixed it
Nice!

ok thanks
guys, can someone help me?
hi guys, i need help, i installed scarab and mods but when i open up hollow knight it opens up normally with no mods
That happens when you exit the menu not clicking the "Back" button, and use B or Esc instead. There's a workaround mod to fix that
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/879138066961424405/899325564962344980/EscapeHatch.dll
Download it, place it into a folder in your mods folder (Press "Open Mods" on scarab), next time it happens, press f3 (may need to press fn + f3)
Try this, but for step 3 install/reinstall a mod #archived-modding-help message
There's also a new version of the modding api you can install to fix this, but it'll get replaced whenever you install another mod.
where do i get the mod installer

Hey quick question I want to play with the blackmoth mod do I have to use the old mod loader for that one?
Could I get some help using Scarab?
Yes, and you'll need to downpatch your game as well
describe the issue please
I just don't know how to use Scarab, no specific issue.
did you extract it to your desktop after downloading it
ok, after you download your stuff you just close scarab and run your game
You're already done
Ok, cool. I think I'll be able to figure out how to download mods myself but I might be back here very soon with some questions
just check theb oxes for the ones you want and launch the game
Thanks
Also, click the name of the mods for brief descriptions
Ah thanks that helps a lot
Bro I need help, I want to download the hollow knight mods but the archive has a troyan😿
well the one we have in pin doesnt, idk if you got the installer somewhere else
What "archive" are you talking about, and what's telling you there's a trojan virus?
Write in google virustotal is an antivirus online and put the .exe of the mods installer and see the magic
The magic is that the antivirus says troyan
🥲
lel
Try it
if you get the installer from here, it's completely safe
we wrote it
and host it here
on the official server
and it's open source
so you can check for any trojan behavior in the code yourself
Or you can just not use mods
I downloaded the .exe from the channel of firehorn and it have troyans
Yes but why people put virus on
and we didn't register the exe with microsoft
Xd
it's an exe
so it'll throw red flags, because it's a program
you can either trust the staff or not
but I'm telling you it's safe
I try it
👍good job
eyeroll
You can see in other antivirus is the same thing
Are you on windows just hit more info>run anyway
i just told you
Red flag with troyan
we didn't officially register the program
Man I downloaded it
Its safe
Would you like a video of me installing to show there is no virus…
that's what I'm saying
we didn't register it, so things think it's malicious because it executes code
aka.... is a program
Idk
Idk either
so stop spreading misinformation
Not misinformation
if you have definitive proof by looking at the code that it will cause issues, then point out the malicious code
4 antivirus write it has a troyan
jfc
.
Antivirus the all knowing being has come to save your soul from our viruses
lol
4 antivirus
mate i've done multiple malwarebytes scans with the thing installed and it comes up empty handed everytime
Im coming for info xd
I dont need to believe nothing xd
you're right. you don't
I only do a queston xd
and we don't have to listen to your shit either
Okey xd
I only provide an answer
Use the installer or don't get mods, also you're using the wrong installer
@real jacinth remenber that I dont blame you, I dont want to misinformation, Im only searching info because 4 goods antivirus write the mods installer has a troyan
It's spelled trojan
Im only searching info
ok imma say it
if it has a trojan you wouldnt be here
tc would could be sued or smth
and this discord closed
TC wouldn't be sued
Yes
the installer woulndt be here
Im only searching info and talking with the community
Seems like you already searched for info and just want to confront people about it
If you decide you want to use mods, the one you downloaded from fireborns youtube is almost definitely outdated

hi, I've been trying to get the mapping tools working for my room rando, however my mac tells me that the randomisertracker.exe program that im pretty sure im meant to run only works with windows? Is there a work around/mapping tool that works for mac, or am i doing something else wrong?
I'm not too familiar with the room trackers, however I do know there are a couple different mapping tools, which one are you using?
Hey, can someone help me out with something? I was playing multiplayer with a friend of mine earlier today and I had Custom Knight on so I could use a skin while playing, and when I disconnected from the server Custom Knight just stopped working altogether. The game still shows that it's working in the top left corner, but when I go into the mods menu Custom Knight just isn't there. I've tried reinstalling Custom Knight and reinstalling Scarab, only thing I haven't tried is reinstalling Hollow Knight itself. Thanks in advance!
aww dang nevermind then thanks for letting know tho
im using the one done by this person, homothetyhk
The 4th step in the pin on custom knight has a solution for that

Also of note, if you're using HKMP, there's a built in method of using skins so that other players can see yours, there's a HKMP guide also in the pins with a section covering this
Oh okay, thanks! I'll take a look at that and see if I can figure it out
Huh, after i downloaded custom knight all of the game's bgs disappeared, does anyone know the solution for it? (haven't seen anyone actually respond to this question (or at least haven't found in the search bar)
here are all the mods that i am currently using, thanks anyway!
Yea, sorry I don't know. I've never really followed the mapping tools or rando stuff too closely. Perhaps ask in #randomizer or in the randomizer channels in the speedrunning server (in the pins of #randomizer/#speedrunning), also may want to look through rando announcments there for any trackers
ok, will do. thank you
I can't turn off the gun mod, it says it can't initialize but it still works, I just can't turn it off.
Do you have Vasi?
And what do you mean you can't turn it off?
When I go to the mod menu to toggle it off, It isn't there anymore
Just disable it using scarab
Ok
Not every mod has a mod menu
It was weird though because there was a mod menu for it, then it disappeared
@random fox If you're on 1.5, Randomizer Map S has a built-in feature for room rando. If you want to use an external program, https://github.com/RanDumSocks/HKAutoTrackerElectron/releases/tag/v1.3.3 is up to date but I'm not sure if it works for mac.
Uh, HP shouldn't have a mod menu to my knowledge, idrk what would even be there
That is very strange.
Thank you, I'll try and see if it works
Oh wait no it should
does anyone know how to change between big and small size with the smolknight mod
like what do you press
how can i make a mod?
you should ask for that in #archived-modding-development #modding-discussion or enter the modding server
ah ok thanks
I didn't see it in options -> mods but I'll try the backspace thing
nope still not working
is there an enemy randomiser mod in the new scarab thingy? I cant find one, does anyone know if thats something i can do on the current patch
Enemy rando is 1.4 only atm
im using the rando on scarab and all shops as well as cornifer and stags are hidden with question marks and the shops have hidden prices too how can i change that
In long locations, set it to standard
thank you !! 🙂

I might have done something wrong xD
Idk
I have no idea what went wrong
I had a grimm skin but it wasn't the right one
🤣
ok, what exactly are you trying to do
Well I got the right one now
I downloaded the grimmknight and dragged the folder in it into the custom knight folder and it was the wrong one... there was another one in that folder that for some reason was the right one... idk lol

wait did custom knight just update or smth?
for some reason it doesn't even appear in the mods list (in game),
also yes i have it installed in scarab and it has the mod's name in the top
(and before the update(?) it worked just fine, literal minutes ago xd)
Custom Knight updated like, yesterday
huh
And I tend to refer to the thing in the image you sent as the mods list, and the one I assume you're talking about is it's Mods menu page
In which case
yeah yeah
hol up let me explain it properly
what i meant for the mod list is like
the one in the options menu

once you have the thing that matches your patch and OS
download "custom knight"
there's a readme in the pins that details whatever you need to know to get them wroking in your game
Sorry If this is the wrong place to ask this but, about how hard is it to make a custom knight skin? For context I have a decent skill level in drawing (my pfp was by me) but I've never animated much
from what i've heard, it takes a while
https://youtu.be/PU3y3FwSlJU although this is a great way to get started
I tried to record this maybe a dozen times and this was the shortest I could get it.

Thanks man
Yep!
Ok yea that does look like it will take a while but im determined😤
Well yeah, it's a big ass sprite sheet. It's gonna take a while but unless the only thing you want is a different colored cloak then there's not really a better way. Side note: if you do want a different colored cloak, there's some premade ones ready so you don't have to do that part of the reskin
which mod allows me to use all charms?
Infinite notches iirc
And if the premade ones don't work, Skin Remixer lets you choose a hex color
Do you guys know what the default speed increase of the sanic mod is? I’ve been doing a play through on that and trying to complete and was just curious what it was

anyone can help me because enemy rando and item rando is not loading for me on 1.4.3.2
Can you elaborate?
when i open the game it says that both randomisers "FAILED TO LOAD" and i dont know why
Randomizer 3 requires Vasi, Mod Common, Benchwarp, and Qol, Enemy Rando requires Mod Common, make sure you have those
they were disabled for some reason, i enabled them and enemy rando is loaded but randomiser 3 is still not
hey guys, i use modloader2 and i have the 1.4.3.2 patch (on steam) but when i start hollow knight i don't see any of the mods. can anyone help me?
@native ice the scarab is a path or a program?
On the title screen, if you open the "Options" menu, is there a mods tab?
Scarab is a program
And no mods show up in the top left of the main menu?
nope
Try this ^
Scarab is the mod installer, Mod installer 1 and 2 are for the previous game patch, scarab is for the current game patch (Scarab is also known as mod installer 2.5)
aaaaa
thanks u i pass the virus total and isnt has virus i will install it
and try it
Sure
modinstaler 1 says that it's unable to locate game files, how can i fix that ? because i can only said ok to it now
- You should be on 1.4.3.2 (You just said you were so I'll assume you still are)
- Move the installer to your desktop
- Run the installer as administrator
- Make sure the game is closed while running the mod installer
oh ya, rando 3 also requires serecore btw
this didn't work
Was your game closed when you deleted them?
yep
Try it again but delete all the globalsettings files, not just the 3 specified there
okay i will
yes im on 1.4.3.2, moved it to desktop run as administrator and it still says unable to locate files :/
Try mod installer 2 maybe?
No
It wasn't working as in it said it failed to load or as in it wasn't randomizing enemies?
it loaded in the end but enemies were not randomized, but when rando 3 got loaded i got the option to load enemy rando in main screen
So you're good?
it looks like it, thank you a lot
how do I disable api
Steam library > right click HK . properties > local files > verify integrity of game files
pirated
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.
are there mods for the newest version of the game??
Yes, scarab has a bunch of them
where can i download them?? i already got scarab
wait they are downloaded onto scarab
Windows is a jerk about apps outside microsoft store
damn
Just more info and run anyways should work
okay ty

my mods arent working
the mod api i think isnt there and i dont know how to get it back
Did all your mods just forgor they existed and dissapeared?
i downloaded mods but when i launch the game doesnt even get the loading mod screen thing
i guess
they were working
i checked my mods folder
they are still there
Weird
but they just dont work
is there a version of the cagney carnation mod for 1.5
No
Scarab hollow point is the same as always
does anyone have an idea how i can fix my game
it is not like the one in yt videos
from what videos
does anyone know whats happening and if so how to fix this? this happens every time i start a randomizer file (i havent tried vanilla modes) also hitting esc doesnt show the menu
geo is also hidden and healing doesnt work (i didnt turn on randomised focus)
fireborn
That’s an old version
apparently, I can't use the previous installer
too
is it possible to downgrade the game
Yes
yeah
?pins look for how to downpatch to 1.4.3.2 (or mod installer says you need the latest stable version)

the mod installer 2 says modding api out of date xd
Click that button
Since the ModdingApi replaces a file in the game, it’s detecting that the file isn’t modded, therefore is “out of date”
Do the same to any mod to update it if it’s outdated
there is no knockback in air for new version of hollow point
or am I missing something
You mean the pogo replacement when you shoot downwards?
ya to be precise
it allows you to fly but the new one only allows float for sometime
fly in the meaning of slightly launching upwards
Ok so basically you point down, jump and then shoot
ye
and start floating/flying until you get out of ammo
Im pretty sure that was kinda a bug
And just got fixed to make everything a bit more fair
thnx man
I miss gun pogo and thought my API was bbgged
*bugged
also new version has a new hud and "spells"
can anyone help me?
i think i deleted my modding api or something
i have the mods and stuff but they just dont work
same
cant choose skin
do you have modcommon
yes
did you look at the customknight pinned message
have you deleted globalsettings files
mine doesnt even load mods
the mods are in the folder
i checked
but when i launch the game there isnt even that mod loading bar thing
it was working yesterday
but today its just gone
give some context. what have you done since then. what installer are you using. what patch is your game. where'd you buy the game from. what OS are you on
what mods did you install
1.4.3.2 modinstaller2 only customknight and debug
i had customknight, debug mod, randomizer 4 and its reqs and randomizermap
i use scarab
and i'm on latest patch
i bought it from steam
and all i have done since yesterday working and today not working was just close my pc
wasn't talking to you
there is a spaghetti playe above my patch number
oh sry xd
plate*
so your mods are still there then
yea
is there a mods list top left
nope
k. so uninstall all your mods in scarab
with game closed obvi
then launch game. and if you see mods text top left, close game, and install them all again
.
i dont delete them from my mods folder
uninstalling in scarab removes them from mods folder
huh....
well there are still mods in the mods folder
a few are gone
but there is still some
did you use mods with the old installers
no
so open your game now
ok i did
the spaghetti symbol is still there
and there are no mods on the top left
no
you sure you uninstalled every mod?
did you change your file path ever
well i tried changing it from where it is to where it is idk if that makes sense
like the path was right
but i changed it again to the right path
to maybe try and fix it
where does the open mods button take you
hollow knight/hollow_knight_data/managed/mods
is it ok if i take a photo of it instead of a screenshot i dont have discord open on my pc
ok gimme a sec
here*
i have mods on the folder
but not on scarab
somehow
also its not english because english is my second language so if you want me to translate something lemme know
are there any files in any of those folders
yes
still nothing on scarab
well, delete all these folders then
ok
then open your game
sounds like this isn't where your game is
go to steam, right click the game->properties->local files-> browse
and screenshot where that brings you
ok
ok i just checked the options menu and the mods section or whatever is there
but no mod in top left
let me do what you said tho
just wanted to mention
it takes me here
try running this program and then opening your game: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/462200562620825600/889031834938265610/Global_Settings_Clear.bat
you should just be able to install the mods in scarab again now
ok thanks a lot
and if the list still shows top left, you're good to go
thanks a lot for the help
bro i downloaded scarab
Ok
Ok

Not entirely sure that I am in the right channel for this, but where can I find the original files for the knight, spells, ect ect to make a texture pack? I haven't done anything like this before so any help would be greatly appreciated
Specifically in steam
default sprite sheets are downloaded as part of customknight mod
otherwise, all asset files are extracted and pinned in #art-discussion
So if I download that mod then change the sheets, would it change the original ones too, or how would it work
I have no experience with this
the original ones are in unity asset files. after you change the sprite sheets, you'd just use customknight to load them in your game
I think I understand?
So after downloading the mod I will have a copy of the sprite sheets in my files
in the mods folder yeah
If I change them I can then use them as my skin using the mod
Alright, thanks for the help
a bunch of finished ones here for reference. and a video on how the mod works
uh, two questions about textures:
- I want to make custom charms (currently just textures for now) but cannot find what size by what size is should be. Can someone please help with that, or just send a blank template the right size?
- Can I change knight skins using charms?
They don’t need a specific size
they adapt right?
Also no, not for modding-development
okay, thanks
oh, thank you!
You can use the default sprites for a reference for the average size
wouldn't be too difficult. and could probably piggy-back off using customknight too
but it doesn't exist
oh, where do I find that?
CustomKnight+ once it’s not a beta anymore
…it comes with CustomKnight?
i just found out scarab is for 1.5+, what should i use for 1.4.2.4?
your wallet
mod installer 1/2
Where did you purchase the game
u got me there KEKW
ty
Doesn’t work
doesnt work anyway
You can try
lmao
it'll just tell you to buy the game
i like trolling
lmao
:KEKW:
Even if you get past piracy detection
is not even gonna work
enjoy your visit to the steam store
f in chat

Or gog
which beta do I use for the mod installer?
is there a specific mod you're looking for
nah I just want to be able to use the modinstaller again
woah does it have QoL annd custom knight
AWESOME

is there a multiplayer mod on scarab?
yes
i couldn't find one
HKMP
ok thx
what is the current version of randomizer
Rando 4 version 4.0.2+014 I think
pins do
oh thanks
Anyone knows what causes the removal of the backgrounds? Even though I disabled every single mods possible besides the API, it still didn't fix it.
hey guys my mod installer doesn't work
Also yeah it's Scarab 1.5
when i open it (after it asks if the path to hollow knight is right) tells me that the patch i'm using in not the current one
Use scarab instead of modisntsller
Modinstaller*
It says that if you try to use it (made for 1432) while on patch 1578
how do i download it from the github page?
You click on it
Whichever one matches your OS
can i manually install DecorationsMaster with scarab?
Why not just install it off scarab
if I have the hollow knight in game pass can I put mods?
There is this guide however I haven’t heard any success stories but I haven’t heard any of failure so you may wanna give it a try. https://docs.google.com/document/d/13m-jJqI_Sk-rqoX9YO2T7ucvwP5DIMbf3wkmVSlm2WI/edit
Hollow Knight mods on the Xbox Gamepass (for PC) I just found out about this so I can’t really give a very detailed guide on how to do this but I’ll try my best.If you launch the Xbox app (and you also have the gamepass subscription activated) you will be able to install Hollow Knight: Voidhe...
is there a place to see error logs for the game in general?
i don't think console can get mods
i play in pc but i play whit game pass
is it a streaming service?
or do you have it actually downloaded
if the former no, definitely not.
if the latter, download the mod installer (ahem
) and see for yourself cuz idk
Someone did get this working a few weeks ago
How do you install mods on mac

What types of error logs you looking for
uhhh nevermind I fixed it by using the classic uninstalling and reinstalling
Tried and true
what happened was I was on a new playthrough and you know the dreamer cutscene on the resting grounds where you get blocked y a white barrier?
and the 3 of them teleport consecutively?
when the first one teleported the game froze and i waited for like 5 minutes so I had to close it
when i tried to open it again, upon launching the game the screen went completely white, no menu music played and just "not responding" at the top
I tried verifying game files and that changed it to a black screen with menu music then it stopped responding
weird issue but I got it fixed so doesn't matter
I was trying to find an error log so I could ask for help with more than just "dreamers killed my game"
great now this shows up every time and automatically closes my game
does anyone have any idea of what this mean
because i definitely don't
you are using scarab, correct?
is there a mod that enables me to press a keybind then reload
debug
is it under misc in debug, if so what is it called
the keybinds are in the middle of the screen. you click the white circle with your mouse, then click the keybind you want to change it to
it'd be save state related binds or quick save/quick load
the same way you host with zerotier
connect to people in a hamachi room. enter in the host's hamachi ip to connect in game
oh thanks
Is this on a new save
Yes
Hollow point doowork on new saves close it and reload the save
Ok and last question is, where is modlog?
saves location
Ok thanks
wheres modinstaller link
