ocean tartan
#

can some help me im opening the scarab for mac and it just closed instantly

native ice
#

Scarab doesn't open correctly on MacOS
🔹 Move the file you downloaded (mac.zip) to your Desktop
🔹 Double-Click it, and Scarab should appear
🔹 Right-Click the Scarab icon, and select "show contents"
🔹 Go into the MacOS folder, and then double-click the "Scarab" file

ocean tartan
#

one more thing is the muiltiplayer cross platform

native ice
#

If by platform you mean between operating systems, yes. It's also compatible between two game versions. If you're talking about for consoles, no since you can't mod them

#

#

Try this

dawn tundra
#

I'm playing on mac, and just downloaded mod installer and downpatched to 1.4.3.2, but whenever I try to run hollow knight, it gives me a steam error and a message saying I don't have permission to run it. I'm stumped, can someone help me pls

i want to practice my speedrun tricks, so i've been trying to setup debug mod and mod console, but for some reason when I have them enabled and i start up hollow knight, i just get a black screen. I'm on 1.2.2.1 and have been using the regular modinstaller. Should I use scarab? or Modinstaller 2?

covert valve
#

There isnt a mod installer for 1221

orchid finch

ive tried doing it manually as well and it yeilds the same result

abstract badger

#

You are running the latest patch right ? Then I’m not sure from where your problem is coming, you might have messed up the download somehow

abstract badger
#

Did you extract scarab to your desktop

Try verifying the the files in steam. That worked for me

Still doesn't work

#

The glasscannon mod is working but the custom knight is not

#

@abstract badger help

crude shadow
#

@novel bronze , try opening the modloader for scarab

#

The thing you used to install the mods

prisma stream
#

how do i remove the mod ui from the menu?

novel bronze
#

The 1.5 scarab right

boreal blade
#

does anyone know if there's a way to get the god soul area effects like the exploding enemies in crossroads without the duplicated enemies. because those look fun but I'm nowhere near good enough for the extra enemies

novel bronze
#

now what

sacred haven
#

Does scarab work with xbox pass?

quaint spire
#

i have installed scarab but how do i downloud mods / activate them?

sacred haven
#

so you run the application which you can find in the unzipped folder

#

and then you just click "install" on the mods you want

quaint spire
#

yeah

sacred haven
#

and then you close scarab and launch hollow knight in 1.5

quaint spire
#

do i have to press installed?

sacred haven
#

press "all"

#

and then "install" on the mods that you want

quaint spire
#

tysm

sacred haven
#

make sure to close scarab before you open hollow knight though

quaint spire
#

okay ty for the helpp

merry pier
willow prawn
#

oh gotcha

sacred haven
#

Also, another question, does a client-side multiplayer mod exist? Like, splitscreen coop?

crude shadow
#

check on the active tab if the custom knight mod is active,

ruby frost
#

?

patent knoll
#

how do I save my levels made with DecorationMaster as a file that I can send to others?

#

if that's possible

novel bronze
#

anyone know why the pure vessel skin for CustomKnight doesn't work?

patent knoll
#

is there a folder with another folder inside of it? that happened to me with a different skin once, and it wouldn't work

#

the second folder having the skin inside of it

novel bronze
#

nope nothing there

#

it done that when i chose the "fix/reload skin" option

patent knoll
#

so it was working fine until you clicked fix/reload skin?

novel bronze
#

no it wasn't loading but its working now thanks 👍

patent knoll
#

alright

abstract badger
patent knoll
#

oh okay, thanks so much

#

can I put stuff in boss fights?

#

because I'm trying to make markoth with spikes covering the platforms

patent knoll
abstract badger
# ruby frost

I would guess this is because you have impossible settings. Such as having an outside mod with the setting no dark rooms enabled but also having dark rooms selected in required skips. Or you are possibly missing a dependency

abstract badger
patent knoll
#

okay, thank you

abstract badger
#

The pins have a guide on how to play split screen

sacred haven
#

Where can I get it?

#

Oh, awesome

abstract badger
crude shadow
#

but you should go and check of the mod is active in the modloader, if its not, it will not appear ingame

abstract badger
crude shadow
#

neither will it if you acceldeantely misscliked and uninstalled it

abstract badger
# novel bronze

Double check you have Ck dependency satchel for 1.5 and mod common for 1.4

novel bronze

Hey everyone, been a long time since I modded and I have an old ModInstaller version, how do you beta the game now? Should I change my ModInstaller?

pliant lantern
# ruby frost how do i solve?

Re-install Randomizer 4 and the mod with Lever Rando. And then probably double check your settings to make sure that you don't have settings that don't make sense together.

patent knoll
#

I accidently placed something with decorationmaster, but I don't know how to delete it

#

I tried hitting it with a nail

pliant lantern
#

Hitting with the nail is the only way afaik

#

Unless you went out of editor mode

patent knoll
#

oh, I'm just dumb

#

didn't realize I had to hit it from the side

#

thank you

#

I also know that you can configure stuff that you place too, but I don't know how

#

could somebody help me, please?

pliant lantern
#

Before you place it, you can rotate. I think it's by clicking mouse wheel?

pallid tangle
#

Where do i download the normal game for free?

patent knoll
#

oh, okay, thank you

pliant lantern

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.

pallid tangle
#

Theres some pinned on other channels that is like some free hollow knight

#

Im just lazy to do it

pliant lantern
#

No there isn't?

#

But that's not the game itself lol

patent knoll
#

I did this but I can't delete it

#

because when I spawn in, I get hit with spikes, and invincibility doesnt work

pliant lantern
#

Lol

#

Well, you've leavened to not put spikes there

patent knoll
#

yeah lol

#

but I don't know how to get rid of them

pliant lantern
#

You can delete the .Json for that room

patent knoll
#

already did

pliant lantern
#

It's in the decoration Master data folder

pliant lantern
patent knoll
#

do I have to close the game when I delete it?

pliant lantern
#

Yes

patent knoll
#

oh okay thanks

#

markoth killed himself

#

with the spikes

#

lol

pliant lantern
patent knoll
#

I'm adding some stuff to the markoth arena with DecorationMaster, but some of the stuff damages markoth himself. Is there any way to make it so that it doesn't damage markoth?

Hello! 👋
I've been playing around with Randomizer4, and I have to say, I struggle a bit with understanding how cost randomization is supposed to work... What does each entry actually do? How would I go about setting up it so the actual amounts of grubs/essence/etc needed are left not randomized?

#

I saw the github page, but I honestly didn't really understand the explanation made there

patent knoll
#

could you copy paste the explanation given on github?

abstract badger
tired edge
# patent knoll could you copy paste the explanation given on github?

"For each category, there is a minimum, maximum, and tolerance. The costs will be taken uniformly at random between the minimum and maximum (inclusive), and the locations will be randomized under the constraint that for the cost to be affordable, the number of reachable items must exceed the cost by tolerance. Concretely, if the grub cost settings give a minimum of 1, a maximum of 23, and a tolerance of 2, then a possible cost is 19, and that cost will be in logic when 19 + 2 = 21 grubs are reachable." is what I found on github

#

I'll check out the readme, is that also on github?

#

haven't found it yet

abstract badger
tired edge
#

so... if I set max and min to 1, then each single grub gives some reward?

abstract badger
tired edge
#

aight... and what does tolerance do again? another part of it that completely went over my head

abstract badger
#

In simple forms the logic will calculate for extra of that so say you set tolerance at to and you have like wings for 7 grubs from my understanding the randos logic will allow you to reach 9 grubs instead of only seven if tolerance was set to 0. I would recommend keeping it at 1-4

tired edge
#

ah, so basically the game might make some grubs unreachable, and only give rewards for the grubs that are reachable? and then it's checking how many grubs can be checked?

abstract badger
#

Yep

tired edge
#

alrighty, that makes sense, appreciated

abstract badger
tired edge
#

how does that work with essence then?

#

I see that the default tolerance is 20

#

does it mean game only expects me to miss 20 of all available essence?

fickle stump
#

how do i turn invincibility on?

abstract badger
tired edge
#

also, if I wanted to have a reward at each 100 interval, then I'd want to set both minimal and maximal to 100?

abstract badger
fickle stump
#

ah thanks!

abstract badger
fickle stump
#

kill all is actually more useful here, need godseeker mode for speedrunning, and i havent beaten the game on pc

tired edge
#

I see... would it be recommended to just leave it at default 1/1800/20 then?

abstract badger
#

I normally do 0/1200/20-50

#

1800 may be too much so it is best to stay a little lower

#

Otherwise you just get a bunch of essencetamershrug but it is up to you

tired edge
#

ah, I getchu

#

now, just to confirm it... if I have grubs at 1/1/5, does that mean a random amount of grubs will be available (1-42 iirc?), and no grubs will be made mandatory for progression past "max available minus five"?

Or, does it mean that only 1-6 grubs will be available, and that's it?

#

alternatively, any recommended setup for grubs costs?

tired edge
#

ah, alrighty, that sounds cool

abstract badger
#

I would say 0/20-23/2-3

#

For charms I would say 0/5-10/2-4

tired edge
#

appreciated 🙏

#

is egg shop worth playing with?

#

never really saw what it's supposed to do

#

just possibility of putting progression it it?

abstract badger
#

Yeah it is Jiji so it is a shop for eggs at Jijis hut and actually makes eggs useful

tired edge
#

just more so asking if I turn it on, could it happen that monarch wings are stuck behind egg paywall?

abstract badger
tired edge
#

yikes

abstract badger
#

I would duplicate monarch wings and items like that

#

I mean it is the same as it being behind a grub wall just different currencies

tired edge
#

with duplicate items, say there are 2 pairs of wings... will that make one of them just a useless pickup, or once I get one, the other will turn to something else?

abstract badger
#

If you have wings (or any duped item) the duplicate will instead give you a measly 100 geo

tired edge
#

alrighty, that's something

#

at least not completely empty :v

abstract badger
#

Happy randos

tired edge
#

I hope I'm not overusing the help here, but if possible I'd like to get to understand the rest while I'm at it 🙏

I completely don't understand progression depth; none of the positions in that section make sense to me to be honest 😅

abstract badger
tired edge
#

appreciate the patience 🙏

when i downloaded multiplayer mod it just shows me a screen with geo node and i cant pause or anything

Hey everyone! I had a quick question about the enemies in hollow knight. I'm working on a unity 2D project right now and I've been researching hollow knight. Does anybody know if the game used RigidBody for the enemies or just a Box Collider? If nobody knows the answer it's all good, I understand that this is a pretty obscure question.

smoky skiff
#

both

exotic zephyr

#

You can

#

Just get the .dll

abstract badger
exotic zephyr

#

Create a folder inside mod folder if its only .dll

#

And put the .dll inside

Its like a type of file

exotic zephyr

#

Do you have the mod?

exotic zephyr
#

nope

novel yew
#

Well thats why

abstract badger
#

What mod

tired edge
#

just as a last question, since I was also interested in using skill upgrades with the randomizer. will the upgrades be also just random pickups? or are there some conditions for picking these up?

novel yew

They will be checks yes but only if you activate it

See this is what I figured, but I'm curious as to how they went about doing it. The RigidBody property is great for applied physics, but makes collisions somewhat dicey. I think I have to play with the layering more so that the enemies collide with the ground but not the player.

oh, does the hash actually matter? or can I safely ignore it? it was meant to be the last question, but oh well 😔

novel yew
#

Ignore it until you are playing with friends

abstract badger
#

The hash is for item sync randos to check your settings are the same

Hello

novel yew
ancient hatch
#

I got a small problem with costo knight

novel yew
#

Tell us :)

abstract badger
ancient hatch
#

Some skins i downloaded in zips

#

Are working

novel yew
#

Have you extracted them?

abstract badger
ancient hatch
#

But some of them i download the images and put them in file

abstract badger
#

What skin did you download only images🤔 if you need I could send a skin

#

In a folder

ancient hatch
#

Rick

#

And tanjero

abstract badger
#

Those are on twp drive so get the folder from there

ancient hatch
#

So i shoud download the folder

abstract badger
#

ancient hatch
#

Should*

#

Ok thx man

boreal wharf
#

i am having a problem with current patch modding where everything still works fine, just when i close the game, whatever file i started ceases to exist

tired edge
#

I just would like to ask, is there any possible mistake I could've made that would lead to this, in my randomization process? I did enable dupes, but is that normal to find 2 items next to eachother, and then one extra in the adjacent room? or is that just the seed being interesting, rather than any mistake on my part?

novel yew
#

You are fucking lucky, thats it

tired edge
#

alrighty, I'll cherish this seed then 🙏

How do I start an item sync? I can't see where to put in the ip and stuff anywhere in the rando 4

novel yew
#

Ok so make sure you and the others olaying have the EXACT same settings

#

When you are sure of that click star randomizer, it should appear a screen after saying if you want to play normally or itemsync, click itemsync

#

Leave the url as it comes

#

And in the room put whatever you want, just make sure the others have the same

#

Room

vital edge
#

Do we need the same seed?

#

Yes

green zinc
#

Just wondering, do you need winzip to get the mod installer on windows?

You need any app in where you cak extract file

novel yew
novel yew

It tells you to pay but just click no, its famous for that reason

sleek zealot

how long does it normally take for a skin to apply?

novel yew
#

Not much

#

Totally less than a minute

sleek zealot
#

hm

#

mine's taking like 5

abstract badger
#

Did your game freeze?

sleek zealot
#

maybe?

#

im restarting it

abstract badger
# sleek zealot im restarting it

That happens when exiting the menu by pressing a key/button to exit the pause menu instead of using the "Back" button. There's a workaround mod to force close it if it happens, so you don't have to alt + f4 and lose progress. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/879138066961424405/899325564962344980/EscapeHatch.dll
Download this and place it in a folder inside your mods folder (Press "Open Mods" in scarab) and then when it glitches, press f3 on your keyboard (may need to press fn + f3) and it'll close the menu

green zinc
#

sorry for the constant dumb question, but is there a longer mod list pinned anywhere? The summaries sheet lists quite a few, but there are only a couple pinned

novel bronze
#

wdym by longer mod list

The randomizer mod requires 1.4.3.2, correct?

novel yew
#

No

#

You can do it on latest oatch too

Hit run

late plover
novel yew
#

Enemy randomizer does require 1.4 btw

sleek zealot
#

wheres %appdata%

novel bronze
#

press the windows key then r

#

this will show up

#

then type %appdata% in here

sleek zealot
#

ah ok

#

so i delete these 2?

abstract badger
#

Yes

sleek zealot
#

mk

abstract badger
#

Then load the game

sleek zealot
#

ok

#

im still stuck?

late plover
#

My hollow knight randomizer says it is failing to load

#

Any idea why?

abstract badger
#

Do you have its dependencies

late plover
#

I have benchwarp on

#

This is randomizer 3 if that helps

#

I think that's the latest version

novel yew
#

No

abstract badger
#

I would recommend you up-patch to 1.5 for rando 4

novel yew
#

Randomizer 4 is latest

late plover
#

Oh, where can I get that? I have Modinstaller 2 and don't see it here

abstract badger
abstract badger
novel yew
#

And have scarab

sleek zealot
novel yew
#

Are you on steam CEO?

late plover
#

Is 1.5 the latest version? I should just click none on betas?

novel yew
#

Yes

#

Do that

#

Click none

novel yew
#

Then get the modinstaller "scarab"

#

^^

late plover
#

Mkay. Should I keep Modinstaller 2?

novel yew
#

No

#

I mean if you want

#

But it wont work

late plover
#

Okay

abstract badger
late plover
#

I'll uninstall it, I like to keep my files tidy

novel yew
#

Ok

#

Scarab its also known as modinstaller 2.5, that means the procedure its exactly the same

#

So dw about it much

late plover
#

Okay cool

sleek zealot
#

i did this, it opened file explorer, and so i clicked that file and it asked me to pick a software to open it with

late plover
#

Yo it automatically installs dependencies that's cool as hell

sleek zealot
#

ohhh wait

abstract badger
#

Don’t open it just put it in your mods folder if it’s not already in a folder then create a folder named
EscapeHatch and put the .dll in there

sleek zealot
#

do i drag the file into custom knight yeah ok

abstract badger
#

No

#

Don’t put that dll in Ck

late plover
#

Wait how to I get custom skins btw

late plover
#

I'm trying to play the game for the first time on steam but the game isn't detecting any of my controller's inputs at all... it DOES detect the controller since it shows up in controller settings, but I can't actually use the controller

#

I'm using a plugged in ps4 controller, my computer doesn't have bluetooth so wireless doesn't work... steam detects the controller and the controller works in every other game

#

also uninstalling and reinstalling the game doesn't work, along with restarting my computer

#

well... I set steam to only support xbox controllers and now the game shows a ps4 controller graphic in controller settings, doesn't change the fact that I still can't use the controller but I guess it's progress?

Sometimes that problem can be fixed by using a vpn but im not sure what others solutions it has

im in the usa so idk

#

does it normaly do this?

#

Not much

#

But theres a few people that got that problem

Mickely you know?

real jacinth
#

Make sure the folder is on your desktop. and run the scarab file as admin

novel yew
#

You prob do

real jacinth
#

And make sure you've unzipped it

worthy valve
#

i did unzip it

#

i tried opening it from desktop and that didnt work and ive noticed when i maximize it i can see the ui for a quick second

#

and i am using the latest release of scarab 1.9

#

it did show me that i had to give it the hollow knight folder and i did and then after it did nothing

#

i tried reinstalling it (deleting the old one) and launching it and it didnt give the prompt to do said thing

novel yew
#

Does it work now at least?

worthy valve
#

nope

novel yew
#

Well you can try using a VPN.

worthy valve
#

what type of vpn?

real jacinth
#

Reset it

#

Using the installer 2 instructions

#

It's the same file location

worthy valve
#

ok ill try that and tell you if it works

#

it told me to select the folder and i did
