There’s a fix in there somewhere

narrow ocean
#

Anyone know how to fix this? Im on a mac and scarab just wont open, ive done all the permisson stuff but this message comes up anytime i try to open it

real jacinth
#

looks like you downloaded the source code

mossy smelt
#

download the mac build, not the source code

narrow ocean
#

oh oops well thanks

analog sage
#

modding gone wrong

#

the installer was for 1.4.3.4 but can it also run 1.4.2? D:

real jacinth
#

where'd you buy the game from

stoic trench
#

is there corrupted kin on 1.5 or do i have to downpatch to 1.4

real jacinth
#

yes

stoic trench
#

downpatch or there is one on 1.5?

real jacinth
#

yes

#

both exist

stoic trench
#

ok

#

is the 1.5 corrupted kin on scarab

real jacinth
#

yes

stoic trench
#

k

narrow ocean
#

so I downloaded the mac version, and it just closes instantly, like nothing comes up it just starts loading then stops

real jacinth
#

right click the app. show contents

mossy smelt
#

Put it on your desktop, double click it to extract, right click, open app contents, macos, run it

real jacinth
#

then run the scarab file ...... ^ this

topaz forge
#

What does a randomizer do?

novel bronze
#

Randomizes a bunch of stuff

topaz forge
#

is it like a challenge?

novel bronze
#

Like, you could get shade cloak in kings pass

#

Or a geo rock replaces vengeful spirit

topaz forge
#

is there any way to get itemsync for vanilla items?

novel bronze
#

You mean on multiplayer?

topaz forge
#

Yes

novel bronze
#

Think so

topaz forge
#

:O

novel bronze
#

There’s a guide to get it set up in pins

topaz forge
#

I cant seem to find it

dense shuttleBOT
novel bronze
#

?pins

#

Scroll

topaz forge
#

No yea I know but which pin 🤔

sour gazelle
#

the one that says what you need

topaz forge
#

smh

novel bronze
#

Read

topaz forge
#

am i blind

real jacinth
#

.

topaz forge
#

But is there a way to turn off the randomizer and still have item sync.

analog sage
# real jacinth where'd you buy the game from

i know how to update my game i just really dont wanna, is there anywhere i could find an older version of the mod installers? modinstaller 1 didn't work so i tried 2, also had an error message

novel bronze
#

Did you buy the game from steam

real jacinth
topaz forge
#

yea okay

#

thanks

real jacinth
#

you can set randomizer settings to be vanilla item placements tho

topaz forge
#

Oh!

#

Il try that

potent gulch
#

Quick question about the randomizer, why are you unable to get the Flower Reward if the Reward is Geo? I did the quest, went back for the geo drop, but the NPC was just gone

analog sage
potent gulch
#

The Item Tracker also shows no Geo Drop

real jacinth
#

where did you buy it from

novel bronze
#

Because if you pirated it mods will not work on your copy and we won’t help you getting them

#

So don’t waste your and our time by dodging the question please

real jacinth
potent gulch
#

Nope, didn't get an item drop upon placing it, the Map marker also wasn't gone from the randomizer Map Tracker

#

On a previous run the reward was a grub, which just spawned in the grub bottle where the Flower NPC was in the house

cerulean portal
#

is anyone busy

real jacinth
#

were you just given geo upon entering the building

novel bronze
real jacinth
#

without picking it up?

#

did you try reloading and re-entering the room

potent gulch
#

Nope, according to the Item Tracker no Item was picked up, also no loose geo on the floor

cerulean portal
#

and are willing to vc i dont want to mess anything up since this is my first time modding hollow knight and i want to make sure it's working for when i stream it

real jacinth
#

download scarab, run scarab, install mods

#

ezpz

novel bronze
cerulean portal
#

thats the issue

topaz forge
#

Where can I find the randomizer core mod thats not on Scarab? Whenever I try to install it on Scarab it crashes.

real jacinth
#

it being what

analog sage
# novel bronze So don’t waste your and our time by dodging the question please

yea it's fine, i totally understand. i didn't mean to waste your time and i really am ashamed for what im doing, pirating indie games is not something i'd really like to do, i'm not trying to justify what i do at all, but i live in iran, i CANT pay for the game, even if i had the money. again though, my fault. sorry for wasting your time

cerulean portal
#

i have scarab open but it's just a gray box

novel bronze
#

It’s fine man
But yeah, you can’t mod pirated copies. Sorry

real jacinth
#

then open again

cerulean portal
#

ok

#

btw im on 1.5 is that ok?

novel bronze
#

Yes

real jacinth
#

make sure all your scarab files are on your desktop

#

and not in downloads

potent gulch
real jacinth
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

real jacinth
topaz forge
cerulean portal
#

only thing i have in app data is HKMod installer

#

is that what im supposed to delete?

real jacinth
#

is that a folder

cerulean portal
#

yes

narrow ocean
#

Do you have to be on 1.5 to use scarab or does 1.4.3.2 work

novel bronze
#

Former

topaz forge
real jacinth
#

"The requested operation cannot be performed on a file with a user-mapped section open"

topaz forge
#

I dont have hollow knight open :/

real jacinth
#

the log says you do

topaz forge
#

il try restarting my pc

real jacinth
#

unless you didn't send the most recent

topaz forge
real jacinth
#

where are your scarab files

#

and what are you trying to do

topaz forge
#

My scarab files are in my downloads folder

#

Im just trying to install Randomizer mod

real jacinth
#

move them all to desktop

topaz forge
#

Can they be in a folder on my desktop?

novel bronze
#

Yes

real jacinth
#

yes

#

downloads isn't a real location

#

so can lead to errors

topaz forge
#

Crashed again :(

real jacinth
#

did you move all 4 files

topaz forge
#

Yep

real jacinth
#

run the exe as admin

topaz forge
#

Still crashed D:

real jacinth
#

and you're pressing the install box on randomizer to crash it?

topaz forge
#

Yes

real jacinth
#

try another mod

topaz forge
#

Still crashes (I used benchwarp for example)

real jacinth
#

is this in an unzipped folder

topaz forge
#

Yes

real jacinth
#

is this the first mod you tried to install with scarab

topaz forge
#

Nope

real jacinth
#

so what did you install before

topaz forge
#

I have HKMP, QoL, Enemy HP Bar, ItemChanger, RandomizerCore, Satchel, and Vasi

real jacinth
#

click the open mods button on scarab

topaz forge
#

k

real jacinth
#

is there a folder there called menu changer

#

and benchwarp

topaz forge
#

Yep

real jacinth
#

delete them

topaz forge
#

No Benchwarp tho

#

oh no

real jacinth
#

so you don't have permission to delete your own folders?

topaz forge
#

apparently

#

I am the owner of this computer

real jacinth
#

well you should figure that out

topaz forge
#

yea im working on it

#

This is a problem

#

When I change it to my ownership it resets right away

abstract badger
#

Are you allowed to move the folder or it’s contents?

topaz forge
#

Windows is mean

#

Im working on it

#

OK

#

I can move folders now

#

Still cant delete

#

Its working now that I deleted them :D

#

Thanks guys

narrow ocean
#

for scarab, is all you have to do for mods enable them? Because they arent showing up if i go into the game..

novel bronze
#

Yes
What mods did you get

narrow ocean
#

Just debug and benchwarp

novel bronze
#

Press f1

narrow ocean
#

nothing happens

novel bronze
#

Did you install these when your game was closed

narrow ocean
#

yes

real jacinth
#

did you change patches after you used scarab

narrow ocean
#

I think so

novel bronze
#

?pins

dense shuttleBOT
novel bronze
#

Or this

real jacinth
#

nah

#

just open scarab

#

install any new mod

#

then open the game

narrow ocean
#

OH it worked

#

thanks!

#

One thing tho f1 doesnt open the debug menu

#

and uh nothing else does either

real jacinth
#

did you go into a save

narrow ocean
#

Yeah

real jacinth
#

are you on a laptop

#

or using a keyboard with other functions on the F keys

narrow ocean
#

yes

real jacinth
#

then you're not pressing F1

#

do fn+F1

#

to actually press F1

narrow ocean
#

Oh that worked thanks again lol

novel bronze
#

No

Answer this questions so I can help
What version of the game are you on?
Where did you got the game from?
What installer are you using?

jade aurora
#

With the randomizer map mod, can you trace rooms you have never been to?
Because they dont show up on the map but normally you can click on the room and it says the route, but can you find the route to unexplored rooms?

novel yew
#

No afaik

glass vessel
#

So i'm trying to figure out how to mod HK rn, and i can't find very many recent tutorials that are very straight forward, does anyone know one they know works still?

glass vessel
novel yew
#

Ok get scarab

#

?i

dense shuttleBOT
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

seems to have worked, thanks guys

for whatever reason, whenever I load into a save, the screen is black until I move through a transition. After I die the game completely softlocks and I have to force quit. Does anyone know what is causing this?

#

am currently using these mods

mossy smelt
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

Enable and disable mods until you find the culprit

#

Should only take about 4 launches, unless there's a conflict

lament current
#

damn, alright

#

thanks

mossy smelt
#

If I had to guess, custom knight or one of the rando mods

somebody said crack hollow knight does not work on modinstaller

Maybe rando actually does require benchwarp? Doubt it

omg zote

Where did you get the mod/modding api?

#

And posting it couldn't hurt

Uhh link in description of Ax2u's tutorial.

Is it possible to tell Grimmchild upgrades that I want to run it independent of Infinite Grimm?
I used to be able to do that, but now it doesn't seem to load and activate unless i have Infinite Grimm installed. And then the mod log tells me it fixed my outdated settings for grimmchild upgrades.
All I want from upgrades is the fix for fireball targeting, not the whole shebang.

#

What my log says every time I try to launch the game with Grimmchild upgrades enabled is :
[INFO]:[GrimmchildUpgrades] - Settings outdated! Rebuilding.

hi i downloaded scarab

#

but i cant launch it as mac

merry pier
#

Have you extracted the files ?

late oriole
#

i cant even open it

merry pier
#

Could you please explain what you did ? As I understand it, you went online downloaded scarab, and then ?

late oriole
#

i try to launch it as it is a mod right? for hk

#

but it wouldnt open

merry pier
#

Well first you need to extract the files, aka right click on whatever you download and extract it, then you will find « scarab.exe » that you can open

late oriole
#

i cant extract the files though because i am using a MacOS

merry pier
#

I’m pretty sure you can ? Tbh I have no experience with macs but you probably can

To unzip zipped files on a Mac, simply double-click on the zipped file and the Archive Utility tool will unzip the files, creating a new folder of its contents beside the zipped folder on your desktop.

Verify on Steam:

Launch Steam.
From the Library section, right-click on hollow knight and select "Properties" from the menu.
Select the "LOCAL FILES" tab and click the "VERIFY INTEGRITY OF GAME FILES..." button.

👋 hello! I'm beginning to use the HKAutoTracker, and it has some integration with HKMP. I just installed that as well, but the Local / Nearest Trackers still don't work. Does anyone know what else I need to do? Should I take this to the HKMP discord or is this the right place? Thanks!

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.

Yep, but they dont affect

Is it possible to tell Grimmchild upgrades that I want to run it independent of Infinite Grimm?
I used to be able to do that, but now it doesn't seem to load and activate unless i have Infinite Grimm installed. And then the mod log tells me it fixed my outdated settings for grimmchild upgrades.
All I want from upgrades is the fix for fireball targeting, not the whole shebang.

@wheat orchid ^

wheat orchid
#

Well I already see 2 problems

#
  1. You need satchel for CustomKnight to function on 1.5
vocal goblet
#

Satchel and what else

wheat orchid
#

At least from what I can see, there’s no reason to have weavercore

#

Plus it did fail to call a constructor in it

vocal goblet
#

i think i have it on bc i played all of the boss upgrade mods

#

but i wanted to play godsoul without it

wheat orchid
#

Try getting satchel and removing weavercore and see what happens

#

If that doesn’t work, disable every mod but the ModdingApi and see what happens

vocal goblet
#

ok

abstract badger
#

And you may wanna remove benchwarp fix if you don’t need it. It is inherently none to break thingstamershrug

#

whenever i try to disable game object dump via scarab i get a modinstaller error

You sure that’s from scarab?

does it work if i manually move it

to the disabled folder

Scarab will think it’s on though

#

strange

#

ig ill have to use the sprites on the drive for this then

wheat orchid
# vocal goblet ok

I think it was that or another mod that attempted to manually create preloading (loading stuff from parts of the game) and it may break creating save files
