Hi, i have a question. I have a mac compuper and I was able to download the mod installer, but when I open it, it keeps saying that it unexpectedly crashed

real jacinth
#

what did

#

the installer? the game?

#

you using scarab?

valid folio
#

the installer. I am using scarab

#

Custom Knight is acting weird, skins don't work on pre existing saves, even though the mod says it does.

real jacinth
#

it does

#

the mod also conflicts with hollow point. and requires you to have put the skins in the right spot

#

check pins for common fixes

blissful vessel
#

Yes

fleet mango
#

I can't find the menu in game where I can change skins

#

nvm I fixed it

When I go into the game on pc it says the hkmp mod failed to load and its says to open modlog but I have

  • Where do you have the game from?
  • How did you install HKMP?
novel bronze
#

I got the game from gog

#

I installed hkmp from github

#

hkmp.dll

pliant lantern
#

Do you have a legitimate version of the game?

novel bronze
#

Yes why

#

Did I download the mod for pirated?

pliant lantern
#

Because many mods don't work on pirated / cracked copies

novel bronze
#

Oh

pliant lantern
#

Is there a reason you're not using Scarab to install mods?

novel bronze
#

I understand

#

Scarab?

Oh

Thank you

Customknight, QoL, debug, benchwarp and their dependecies

I tried disabling all to check if it was a mod specific thing

#

Still no

#

Thank you, i was considering completely deleting the mod installer and downloading it again

Is there a mod to spawn in geo?

deep hatch
#

Does it normally take super long to apply a custom knight skin?

#

It seems as if my game is frozen but idk if it’s just loading in the skin or whatnot

#

(I do Wanna use a custom knight skin tho since, I really like the skin I found)

blissful vessel
deep hatch
#

Any and all help is always appreciated <3

blissful vessel
#

it maybe takes a few seconds

deep hatch
#

Well shit

#

I must’ve done something wrong

blissful vessel
#

I have pretty bad specs and it takes me like 3 seconds

#

for the skin to load

deep hatch
#

Alright so its something messing up

blissful vessel
deep hatch
#

(Uhh maybe?)

#

Yeah could you (or someone) help figure this out pls?

blissful vessel
#

If only I was experienced

deep hatch
#

Frick

blissful vessel
#

but I could try

#

although I have no idea atm

#

also hollowpins might help

pliant lantern
deep hatch
#

hm alright will try that

#

Also gonna make sure my folders are not multilayered

#

Ok its not, clicking the folder brings up all the images and stuff so thats not the problem

#

Oh! It works now! Yay!

blissful vessel
#

this did not solve the issue

#

oh great my game crashed on the title screen with 0 mods zote

pliant lantern
#

The number of mods is irrelevant if you have a bad or mismatched API.

blissful vessel
#

I have scara and I don't have hk downpatched

blissful vessel
pliant lantern
#

And you used Verify Integrity in Steam?

blissful vessel
#

yes

#

wtf everything is breaking

#

and between the period in which it worked completely fine and it breaking I did not do anything else other than having discord and steam open

#

what the fuck

pliant lantern
#

You may just need to restart you computer

blissful vessel
#

i did

#

and I competely reinstalled hollow knight

#

deleted a bunch of files

tropic bronze
#

Thanks for the ping. No need to delete it though. I thought it was a troll ghost pinging at first hollowknice

tall yarrow
#

hi guys, sorry if this was answered already. the modinstaller from modnexus says i need the most recent stable version to run. i have already updated the game on steam. Any suggestions?

real jacinth
#

dont use nexus

#

it's like a year outdated

#

?pins

dense shuttleBOT
tall yarrow
#

ah

#

thanks

real jacinth
#

and we don't host anything on nexus

#

so use at your own risk

tall yarrow
#

gotcha, will watch out

real jacinth
#

use scarab. it's for current patch

tall yarrow
#

thanks bro, will look at past messages for more

blissful vessel
#

idk what I did but this thing is happening again

#

it worked a few times, tried to install mods; it broke; deleted a bunch of things, it worked again, then idk it broke again

native ice
blissful vessel
#

I think just reinstalling from steam

#

and verifying file integrity

#

and it worked

#

but then

native ice
#

What installer are you using?

blissful vessel
#

scarab

native ice
#

And you installed mods with scarab and then it stopped working?

blissful vessel
#

like

#

i'll tell you what happened

#

I was playing hollow knight today completely fine on a new playthrough

#

only benchwarp, debug, custom knight and dependecies enabled

native ice
#

And that was working?

blissful vessel
#

yea it was completely fine

#

you know when the dreamers appear on the resting grounds to banish you to the dream realm?

#

they teleport 1 by 1

#

as soon as the first one teleported, my game froze

#

I waited some minutes

#

still frozen

#

I could only close it

#

so I did

#

then I tried to open the game again

#

now on start up it was a completely white screen andthe game immediately stopped responding

#

this happened through the course of 5 minutes

tacit walrus
#

hello

blissful vessel
#

tried verifying game file integrity

tacit walrus
#

where can I find the info on how to use scrab

blissful vessel
#

?pins

dense shuttleBOT
tacit walrus
#

thx

native ice
#

Uh... never seen that happen, that's really odd

#

Have you tried verifying integrity and just trying again?

tacit walrus
#

wait that's how to get it but how do I use it

blissful vessel
#

yea when I verified file integrity

#

it detected some files and replaced them whatever it does

native ice
tacit walrus
#

k

#

any specific place where I unzip it to

blissful vessel
#

then it changed to a black sccreen and it played menu music

blissful vessel
tacit walrus
#

k

blissful vessel
#

then I tried what someone sent me a link to earlier

#

and it worked

native ice
blissful vessel
#

or so I thought

native ice
#

Doesn't really matter

blissful vessel
#

it seemed normal at first but when i went to quit the game to install mods

#

the game froze on the menu screen

#

and I can't get it to work again

tacit walrus
#

it's just grey

kind garnet
#

wheres the globalsettings file

tacit walrus
#

nothing is happening it's just a grey screen

kind garnet
#

I genuinely cant find it

tacit walrus

what'd I do wrong

abstract badger
#

Yeah

novel yew
#

Yes

native ice
#

Well, it's 2d in the same sense HK is, in that there's layers and some things are actually in front or behind, and that kind of shows in VR

#

But it plays the same

so im trying to do a randomizer run but i have no idea what im doing wrong
none of the randomizer mods are working-

Mond installer 1/2

tight venture
#

not a modder but does anyone know what might be causing this (i'm running the game on linux)

i've restarted and even reinstalled the game, but the issue doesn't seem to be fixed

Hey! Quick question, where is a good place to find hk skins?

novel bronze
#

?pins

dense shuttleBOT
lime delta
tight venture
#

no

median wave
unreal flower
#

is there a gun mod for 1.4

lime delta
#

probably

#

go check the mod installer

tight venture
#

i'm unsure if that might be a driver issue (i have amd card, i'm using radv however i installed the amdgpu-pro drivers for using with obs and stuff, but i'm not using the pro drivers as default, afaik)

native ice
fierce sparrow
#

So I had disabled some mods previously which I just enabled. That path that scarab has seems correct but when I start HK it doesn't seem to detect any mods at all. And I have done nothing different from when I previously enabled them. Anyone have any ideas what it could be?

native ice
# tight venture

Okay, what the fuck... Uh.... Never seen something like that, it's kinda cool though. Does that persist through every save and every room?

native ice
#

Try this. If you're on 1.5 for step 3 install a mod with scarab instead of just opening it

native ice
fierce sparrow
#

Another question, I started a multiplayer randomizer itemsync with my friend. But now we're trying to log back in we have no idea how to reconnect to the itemsync server since we don't see that option anywhere and we'd prefer not to start a new game.

tight venture
native ice
tight venture
#

tho if i go back to the previous room it might stay

#

however

native ice
#

Both load into your saves and get a check to test it

tight venture
#

i tried reinstalling the game and i still have that issue

native ice
#

Did you try changing your game resolution?

fierce sparrow
tight venture
#

but the room is like, i think 3 rooms away from the bench, and until i reach there, the issue doesn't seem to happen

tight venture
#

i could try that

native ice
tight venture
#

i tried running the game through proton, but it lods a different save, i think due to save location - it seems to worek fine there, tho, but i haven't tried that room

#

i will try more things tomorrow

i can't try stuff now cause it's 2AM and i'll sleep tho

fierce sparrow
native ice
#

Mmk, goodknight

tight venture
#

but i'll try and report you the results back

#

i still suspect it's a driver issue tho

native ice
#

The whole IP and room name stuff is just for item sync. It doesn't set up HKMP

fierce sparrow
#

If we use hkmp will that interfere with the itemsync stuff? Maybe I thought it connected automatically but it had connection data saved from previous connection tries

native ice
#

No, they should work perfectly fine together seeing as HKMP doesn't have any built in item/progression sync

#

Have you tried picking up an item while both players are in to make sure it syncs?

fierce sparrow
#

Lol easier said than done. Once we find an item we'll see. Thanks again for your patience and the help!

native ice
#

I assume you already have the HKMP stuff figured out, but just in case, there's a public server you can use. IP: hkmp.org Port: 26951 (co-op)

fierce sparrow
#

I am just hosting it, and hkmp stuff is working. And we just confirmed that itemsync works (wayward compass for all randomizer needs), so all is good!

worldly cipher
#

I was fighting p4 and at the end instead of pure vessel it was replaced by thk is this because i had the hall of gods extras mod enabled (that mod adds thk and radience to the hall of gods)

novel bronze
#

you should probably disabled hog extras next time

marble dagger
#

which mod do I use to play as pure vessel

#

or radiance

#

or pale king

#

couldn't find anything on scarab

pliant lantern
#

There aren't mods for any of those things currently.
Custom Knight allows you to reskin as Pale King (Lime made a PK skin)

I'm pretty sure there's a really old mod to play as PV, but I'm unsure where to find it, and what patches it works on (it wouldn't work on current patch)

worldly cipher
#

i was correct it was the hall of gods extra

#

I'm trying to use ModInstaller 2 with 1.4.3.2, but I'm encountering an issue where launching Hollow Knight doesn't actually open the game. Steam thinks it's running, but clicking "stop" doesn't change anything; Steam still thinks it's running.

#

I am, task manager doesn't show any instances of Hollow Knight running

I should also add, for Steam to correctly show that the game isn't running, I have to close Steam through Task Manager

But you do whatever you wanna

solid hornet
#

healing doesnt work for some reason. amount of geo i have doesnt show up, hitting esc key doesnt do anything (menu doesnt show up), my current mods being ran are benchwarp, custom knight, debug mod, fragile strength for nail arts, itemchanger, menuchanger, qol, randomizer 4, randomizer S, satchel and vasi, i am currently on the latest version of HK and using the latest version of scarab as the mod installer

#

one more thing, whenever i go to pick up an item i can no longer do anything

abstract badger
#

Have you double checked you have all the dependencies of your mods

#

I believe you are missing randomizercore

solid hornet
#

i got randomizercore, however i still have this issue

#

restarting the game didnt work

abstract badger
#

You have all the other dependencies?

solid hornet
#

all my mods

#

it looks like i have all other dependencies, though

abstract badger
#

Yeah looks that way

You may just wanna verify game integrity through steam or gog

To fix your save files from saying "loading...", being blank, and/or no mod list appearing top left of title

  1. Go to saves location:

Windows:
Press [Windows key]+R to bring up the Run window. Copy the entire save path below and press okay.
Example: https://imgur.com/a/WjNmgP0
Save Files: %APPDATA%..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\
Mac:
Save Files: ~/Library/Application Support/unity.Team Cherry.Hollow Knight/
Linux:
Save Files: ~/.config/unity3d/Team Cherry/Hollow Knight/
2) Delete all files that have "ModdingApi.GlobalSettings", "Benchwarp.GlobalSettings", and "Customknight.GlobalSettings" in their file name. (will be 6 total if you have benchwarp and customknight installed)

  1. Run the game.

look through the hotkey menu

should be backspace for HUD I believe

unless you changed it

is there raeally no other way cos id rather not buy a vpn

you could move to a new country

opengl does not give me that issue at all

#

however it stutters a lot

novel yew
#

Wooo

#

You fixed it!

tight venture
#

yeah but opengl makes the game stutter quite a bunch on my pc, which is an issue for this game as it focus a lot on movement

so, it is a thing with vulkan, but i think it's a misconfiguration on my side as i remember going through that room with no issues at all, on vulkan, about a few months ago

#

but i also have no idea what it might be

#

so i'm looking for a way to run it on vulkan without that issue

Custom Knight recently had an update, and sometimes when mods update the Global Settings act wonky

paper valve
#

xD

pliant lantern
#

More info > Run Anyway

#

It likely does that because you're trying to run it out of your Downloads folder

paper valve
#

oh ok

pliant lantern
#

If you prefer, you can manually delete the files that it would delete.
The other user linked to a general message about deleting Global Settings: <#archived-modding-help message>, but that message doesn't mention customknight.globalsettings.json, which is the one that you need to remove especially.

#

The script I posted just automatically removes the commonly "messed up" settings files.

paper valve
#

btw do u know how to play co op?

#

is it a mod

#

or a dif program

pliant lantern
#

If you want to see other players in-game, then you use HKMP

There's a pin about pinknight

How to install speedrun mod?
I've been interested in doing casual speedruns of hollow knight and I watched this video by Rusty (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Uk0stYcYls&t=1276s) to see the path. He says he has a speedrun mod, created by the user Underlein, that basically ads quality of life stuff and some other patched glitches and skips. I think it's this one (https://github.com/underlein/HollowKnight.SpeedrunMod).

Anyway, can someone give me some intructions or a video on how to fix it? Do I need to downpatch since the mod is from over a year ago? Thanks in advance!

Oh theres now a mod for that in the installer

#

Called qol (quality of life)

Restarting the game resets the VRAM it's taking. That alone can be enough to fix it for some people. You can also disable the higher resource intensive mods like Custom Knight.

#

Like, you have lots of options

i did tho

Although, tbh it's really silly to still be on 1432

Until you have a config that auto opens the thing you downloaded

Can you close it an the dll would still be there?

no if i close it it will just closed

what kind of file

do you see this?

yup

Then you're good, you're not supposed to open that

You're supposed to put it into your mods folder

I'm using my D drive for Hollow Knight, but spritepacker can only search my C drive and will not work no matter what I do, so I went looking for a labeled spritesheet. JoCat's link is down, so unless someone saved it a while back, I'm not sure what to do aside from just painstakingly find the sprites myself

that's because godump, which is used to get the sprites for spritepacker, dumps the sprites in your saves folder, not your game folder

#

why is hkmp enabled on my mod list in hollow knight even if i don't have it downloaded?

is it included in the scarab itself or sth?

pliant lantern
#

It depends on what you mean by "mods list"

woven fossil
#

this thing

pliant lantern
#

Then you have it downloaded

woven fossil
#

i don't

pliant lantern
#

Yeah, Scarab doesn't actually check your mod folder

woven fossil
#

i even reinstalled scarab but it's still here

pliant lantern
#

If you reinstall Scarab or reset it's memory, it won't know which mods you have

#

You can manually remove hkmp, or click to install it with Scarab (which will link HKMP to it again)

there is an apparent method floating around but you'd have to really search to find it

no one's even said if it works so we just say no you can't mod it

#

1.4 means youll have to use modinstaller 1 or 2, (not scarab) and since the file directory looks weird, the modinstaller might yell at you saying you haven't bought the game (maybe)

i will try it

try HKData

That what i was gonna say but idk if i was wrong

"Invalid path selected" "Please select the correct installation path for Hollow knight"

west bane
#

you might have to manual from there or copy paste that entire folder (essentially duplicate your hk save)

pliant lantern
#

For the Windows App version, iirc you either need to be opted into some beta that Windows is doing for games (which allows them to be moddable), or you need to use a third party program to copy the entire folder somewhere else.

god it really is easier to tell people you just can't mod that version, what a PITA lmao

pliant lantern
# unique garnet Hello, my friends and i wanted to start a HKMP Server with ZeroTier but when we ...

There's an HKMP guide linked in the pins.

You don't need the Server.exe unless you're planning on running the server without being in the game.

The guide covers what you need to do for Zero Tier, but it essentially is

  • use website to make a network
  • ask players use app to connect to that network
  • verify on website that everyone is "online" (green checkmark by name on website)
  • the person Hosting HKMP needs to give everyone else their Managed IP from the app

If you could explain

i installed compass always on, easy mode and enemy hp bar, enabled all, and then opened the game

what OS are you on, what patch, where'd you buy the game, what do you see when it's crashing
