Does anyone know what mods will randomize enemies in Hollow Knight that works with Scarab?

novel bronze
#

Nothing

#

Enemy rando isn’t in scarab yet

orchid jetty
#

uh hello

#

hi there

#

where can i download the bonfire mod?

#

only available thru mod installer?

novel bronze
#

Hey, im new here and idk where can I download the modinstaller2 ? Can someone help please ^^ ?

novel bronze
#

omg I'm so dumb thanks!!

orchid jetty
#

what is the username now

eternal halo
#

I cant seem to get the recent items plugin to work, anyone got any tips? or a better idea for an overlay

twilit crescent
#

Recent items only works if you're playing Rando(mizer 4)

eternal halo
#

I know there just isnt any actual install instructions

#

it just gives you a dll and a pdb

twilit crescent
#

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

orchid jetty
#

ok so seems like modsintaller has the bonfire mod, does scarab has too?

thin maple
#

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?

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.

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

ocean prism
#

what would be a good mod installer to use?

pliant lantern
#

The one that matches your game patch

merry oxide
#

what is split group randomizer?

#

in the randomizer 4 menu

pliant lantern
# merry oxide what is split group randomizer?

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.

merry oxide
#

oh ok

#

thanks

gritty plover
#

anyone know where i can download mod installer 2

pliant lantern
#

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.

merry oxide
#

ok thanks

pliant lantern
gritty plover
#

cause i have no clue how mods work and someone told me to come here

pliant lantern
#

Current Patch doesn't use it, which is why I ask

#

But check the pins for installer info

pliant lantern
# novel bronze ?i

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.

gritty plover
#

im gonna ask a whole lot a questions cause i have never used mods before

pliant lantern
#

That's fine, but seriously, please read through the pins before asking

#

Most FAQ are there

gritty plover
#

how do i check the pins

gritty plover
#

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

lethal turret
#

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

gritty plover
#

nvm i fixed it

#

thanks its working great!!!

What beta should I be on when using scarab?

Do I need to have HK closed when Installing mods?

Okay thanks

ik but not all people can pay for the game that doesnt mean they cant enjoy it

you can play the game

and you can even mod it once you've bought it

gritty plover
#

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?

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?

west bane
#

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

novel bronze
#

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

west bane
#

that might also be because of customknight

sudden stirrup
#

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.

Extract the folder to desktop
Then open the folder
Run scarab
Install a mod

#

oh

#

ok

novel bronze
#

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

If that wasn’t clear enough

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*

sage elk
#

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

novel bronze
#

It might be custom knight

wheat orchid
#

It’s been a bit since I’ve looked into CustomKnight, but does it really crash like that now?

did you extract it to your desktop after downloading it

I think so, I can open a menu with a list of random things

If that helps

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

Bro I need help, I want to download the hollow knight mods but the archive has a troyan😿

novel yew
#

the mods doesnt have any troyan

#

windows is picky with literally everything

novel yew
native ice
radiant wharf
#

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

#

🥲

real jacinth
#

lel

radiant wharf
#

Try it

real jacinth
#

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

native ice
#

Or you can just not use mods

radiant wharf
#

I downloaded the .exe from the channel of firehorn and it have troyans

real jacinth
#

false positives exist

radiant wharf
real jacinth
#

and we didn't register the exe with microsoft

radiant wharf
#

Xd

real jacinth
#

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

radiant wharf
#

I try it

abstract badger
#

👍good job

radiant wharf
#

And it has virus

#

Xd

real jacinth
#

eyeroll

radiant wharf
#

You can see in other antivirus is the same thing

abstract badger
#

Are you on windows just hit more info>run anyway

real jacinth
#

i just told you

radiant wharf
#

Red flag with troyan

real jacinth
#

we didn't register the exe with microsoft

#

b/c that costs money

radiant wharf
#

No microsoft

#

Search it in avast antivirus

#

Malwarebytes

real jacinth
#

we didn't officially register the program

balmy crane
#

Man I downloaded it

Its safe

abstract badger
#

Would you like a video of me installing to show there is no virus…

real jacinth
#

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

radiant wharf
#

Idk

abstract badger
#

Idk either

real jacinth
#

so stop spreading misinformation

radiant wharf
#

Not misinformation

real jacinth
#

if you have definitive proof by looking at the code that it will cause issues, then point out the malicious code

radiant wharf
#

4 antivirus write it has a troyan

real jacinth
#

jfc

radiant wharf
#

That not why the program is no register

#

Them why says troyan

abstract badger
#

I dont blame you bro

Why you blame me xd

real jacinth

this conversation is going nowhere

so move on

Use the installer or don't get mods, also you're using the wrong installer

radiant wharf

@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

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!

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)

native ice
lament fog
#

huh

native ice
#

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

lament fog
#

yeah yeah

lament fog
#

what i meant for the mod list is like
the one in the options menu

dose any one know how to install custom knight

novel bronze

did you install the modinstaller

yet

mint heart

#

?pins

dense shuttleBOT
mint heart
#

thanks

novel bronze
#

yep!

#

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

peak adder
#

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

novel bronze
#

from what i've heard, it takes a while

#

Hope this helps

peak adder
#

Thanks man

novel bronze
#

Yep!

peak adder
#

Ok yea that does look like it will take a while but im determined😤

native ice
#

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

twilit oyster
twilit oyster
#

i tried but enemy rando was not working

#

wait enemy rando needs rando 3 to work ?

native ice
#

No

#

It wasn't working as in it said it failed to load or as in it wasn't randomizing enemies?

twilit oyster
#

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

twilit oyster

it looks like it, thank you a lot

pirated

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.

north bridge
#

wait they are downloaded onto scarab

novel yew
#

No

#

But scarab downloads them

north bridge
#

ok so uhhhhh

#

thats what happpens when i attempt to load scarab

novel yew
#

Windows is a jerk about apps outside microsoft store

north bridge
#

okay ty

novel yew
north bridge
#

how do i remove this??

#

nvm fixed it

merry oxide
#

my mods arent working

#

the mod api i think isnt there and i dont know how to get it back

novel yew
#

Did all your mods just forgor they existed and dissapeared?

merry oxide
#

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

novel yew
#

Weird

merry oxide
#

but they just dont work

marble dagger
#

in the scarab the hollow point mod is different

#

where can I find original

hot glen
#

is there a version of the cagney carnation mod for 1.5

abstract badger
#

No

abstract badger
merry oxide

does anyone have an idea how i can fix my game

marble dagger
abstract badger
#

from what videos

solid hornet
#

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

#

wheat orchid
marble dagger
#

apparently, I can't use the previous installer

languid pine
#

too

fresh halo
#

is it possible to downgrade the game

wheat orchid
#

Yes

languid pine
#

yeah

wheat orchid
#

?pins look for how to downpatch to 1.4.3.2 (or mod installer says you need the latest stable version)

dense shuttleBOT
languid pine
#

the mod installer 2 says modding api out of date xd

wheat orchid
#

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

languid pine
#

oh

#

ill try that

marble dagger
#

there is no knockback in air for new version of hollow point

#

or am I missing something

novel yew
#

You mean the pogo replacement when you shoot downwards?

marble dagger
#

ya to be precise

novel yew
#

That is on hollow point

#

I tried it some days ago

marble dagger
#

it allows you to fly but the new one only allows float for sometime

novel yew
#

If it allowed you to literally fly it was a bug then

#

Not a feature

marble dagger
#

fly in the meaning of slightly launching upwards

novel yew
#

Ok so basically you point down, jump and then shoot

marble dagger
#

ye

novel yew
#

and start floating/flying until you get out of ammo

marble dagger
#

old version- allows you to go further

#

new version- only staying in air

novel yew
#

Im pretty sure that was kinda a bug

#

And just got fixed to make everything a bit more fair

marble dagger
#

thnx man

#

I miss gun pogo and thought my API was bbgged

#

*bugged

#

also new version has a new hud and "spells"

merry oxide
#

can anyone help me?

#

i think i deleted my modding api or something

#

i have the mods and stuff but they just dont work

languid pine
#

cant choose skin

real jacinth
#

do you have modcommon

languid pine
#

yes

real jacinth
#

did you look at the customknight pinned message

#

have you deleted globalsettings files

languid pine
#

i didnt see that msg

#

ill try

merry oxide
#

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

languid pine
#

there is no loading bar

real jacinth
#

what mods did you install

languid pine
#

1.4.3.2 modinstaller2 only customknight and debug

merry oxide
#

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

real jacinth
#

do you see a spaghetti symbol on your title screen

#

above the patch number

merry oxide
#

havent checked

#

let me open the game and check

#

i do

languid pine
#

nope

real jacinth
merry oxide
#

there is a spaghetti playe above my patch number

languid pine
#

oh sry xd

merry oxide
#

plate*

real jacinth
merry oxide
#

yea

real jacinth
#

is there a mods list top left

merry oxide
#

nope

real jacinth
#

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

merry oxide
#

ok let me try

#

also i just uninstall mods in scarab right?

real jacinth
merry oxide
#

i dont delete them from my mods folder

real jacinth
#

uninstalling in scarab removes them from mods folder

merry oxide
#

huh....

#

well there are still mods in the mods folder

#

a few are gone

#

but there is still some

real jacinth
#

did you use mods with the old installers

merry oxide
#

no

real jacinth
#

and you're clicking the installed box?

#

not the enabled box

merry oxide
#

yes

#

there is nothing installed on scarab

real jacinth
#

so open your game now

merry oxide
#

ok i did

#

the spaghetti symbol is still there

#

and there are no mods on the top left

real jacinth
#

not even modding api

#

?

merry oxide
#

no

real jacinth
#

you sure you uninstalled every mod?

merry oxide
#

yea

#

i go on installed section on scarab

#

and there is nothing

real jacinth
#

go in the "all" tab

#

and scroll down

merry oxide
#

nothing

#

installed

real jacinth
#

did you change your file path ever

merry oxide
#

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

real jacinth
#

where does the open mods button take you

merry oxide
#

hollow knight/hollow_knight_data/managed/mods

real jacinth
#

show me

#

screenshot. with the file path included

merry oxide
#

is it ok if i take a photo of it instead of a screenshot i dont have discord open on my pc

real jacinth
#

i dont care

#

i just want to see it

merry oxide
#

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

real jacinth
#

are there any files in any of those folders

merry oxide
#

yes

real jacinth
#

close and reopen your scarab

#

sounds like you gave it too many commands at once

merry oxide
#

still nothing on scarab

real jacinth
#

you just closed the program and reopened it already?

#

not minimize

merry oxide
#

by program if you mean scarab yes

#

i closed and reopened scarab

real jacinth
#

well, delete all these folders then

merry oxide
#

ok

real jacinth
#

then open your game

merry oxide
#

ok gimme a sec

#

ok i did

#

and nothing changed

real jacinth
#

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

merry oxide
#

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

real jacinth
#

which is where

#

it doesn't show the full file path

#

expand the window

merry oxide
real jacinth
merry oxide
#

ok

snow blaze
#

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

real jacinth
#

default sprite sheets are downloaded as part of customknight mod

snow blaze
#

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

real jacinth
#

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

snow blaze
#

I think I understand?

#

So after downloading the mod I will have a copy of the sprite sheets in my files

real jacinth
#

in the mods folder yeah

snow blaze
#

If I change them I can then use them as my skin using the mod

real jacinth
#

yeah

#

.

snow blaze
#

Alright, thanks for the help

real jacinth
#

a bunch of finished ones here for reference. and a video on how the mod works

river arch
#

uh, two questions about textures:

  1. 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?
  2. Can I change knight skins using charms?
wheat orchid
#

They don’t need a specific size

novel yew
#

they adapt right?

wheat orchid
#

Also no, not for modding-development

real jacinth
#
  1. no
#

at least not with the current mod. you'd have to write your own that does that

river arch
wheat orchid
#

You can use the default sprites for a reference for the average size

real jacinth
#

wouldn't be too difficult. and could probably piggy-back off using customknight too

#

but it doesn't exist

Use scarab instead of modisntsller

how do i download it from the github page?

You click on it

uhhh nevermind I fixed it by using the classic uninstalling and reinstalling

#

Tried and true

blissful vessel
#

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"

blissful vessel
#

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

real jacinth

you are using scarab, correct?

that guide is incomplete

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

connect to people in a hamachi room. enter in the host's hamachi ip to connect in game
