[wheat orchid]

What version of the game are you on?

If you’re on ver 1.5 then there is no modcommon, instead CustomKnight requires satchel
On 1.4.3.2 it requires modcommon

[viral spruce]

i just fixed the issue

[sharp tartan]

can someone help i cant change skin since i used the blood knight

anything i try when i load in its still the blood knight

i want to play as zote haha

[proven idol]

can somebody tell me why nothing works in hollow point for 1.5

[merry pier]

Have you read through the read me ?

[proven girder]

How do I enable recent items on rando 4, I'm an idiot and can't find it

[merry pier]

Cuz if I remember correctly you need to first create a file without the mod, and then install the mod and open that file to get it to work

[quaint forge]

Amm... I have a problem with the custom knight mod... Or not, idk, but I can't cast my spell 0-0

[proven idol]

not everything...

now i even tried to remove the mod and i cant focus anymore

[quaint forge]

Lol, and I also have a cursour somewhy... XD

[proven girder]

check pins

[proven idol]

this is taking forever

[spring tinsel]

i got half of kingsoul and now i cant deal damage anymore, does anyone know how to fix this?

[tepid sand]

How to repair Scarab? When I'm trying to open it I have a Modinstaller error

Do I have to reistall it?

or something

[merry pier]

Yeah removing the mod doesn’t remove the effect it had on the game
To fix your soul check the pins there is a guide there

[merry pier]

Could you explain your problem a bit more ?

[abstract badger]

Send the e error here

[tepid sand]

It's downloading me this when I'm opening it

[merry pier]

Wait, what exactly are you trying to download ? Scarab ?

[abstract badger]

Is scarab with the files it came with in a folder in your desktop folder

[tepid sand]

yes

[abstract badger]

You sure because that’s not what the error is saying

[tepid sand]

Oh I was just opening it from desktop but when I opened it from Winrar it worked

with other fodlers in Win Rar

Do I have to always open it from Win Rar?

[merry pier]

No you should extract them from winrar

All of those file, and place them somewhere convenient

[tepid sand]

Okay it's working thank you for help

[junior cobalt]

do i need to put the mod files in the hollow knight files?

help

[sacred umbra]

hi, i’m trying to manually install mods, i used the the MoreSaves mod to test if i’m doing it right — but all it did was add some text to my title screen (see picture), but i’m not actually getting more save slots

[novel bronze]

Press the ] key

[sacred umbra]

pressing it doesn't do anything 😦

[novel bronze]

While in your save slots

Press start game

Then ]

[sacred umbra]

i did, but it doesn't work

did i put it in the wrong folder maybe?

[novel bronze]

Oh, you’re missing a folder

It should be Mods>MoreSaves>MoreSaves.dll

Make a new folder on the mods folder called MoreSaves and put the dll inside that

[sacred umbra]

i did that and still nothing, and now the upper right corner says this:

the Mods folder is in Contents>Resources>Data>Managed>Mods, if that changes anything

[steep sundial]

hey I wanna fight ultimatum radiance but I can't get it to work

does anyone have a guide for it

[inland elbow]

Small problem, my custom skins arn't working

[novel yew]

Explain please

[inland elbow]

They show in the menu

but in game

nothing

[novel yew]

Your character stays vanilla?

[inland elbow]

yep

[novel yew]

Check the skins

[inland elbow]

I did

[novel yew]

See if its zipped

[inland elbow]

They folders

[novel yew]

Or if the sprites are where they need to be

[inland elbow]

Idk about that

Where do they need to be

are they in the right place

[novel yew]

Check inside the skins

[inland elbow]

I did

[novel yew]

Some of them like killer whale have zips inside

[inland elbow]

o

omg

[novel yew]

Is there a spritesheet called "knight" inside of the folder too?

[inland elbow]

thx

yep

[novel yew]

Did it work?

[inland elbow]

No

uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Now the mod is not showing in the paus screen

[novel yew]

Lol

[inland elbow]

Imma install it again

[novel yew]

Like in the mod part of the pause screen right?

[inland elbow]

yes

[novel yew]

Then try this

[inland elbow]

Ok

so

If I try to uninstall or disable the mod, scarab crashes

And the mod is still not showing

[novel yew]

Why

[novel yew]

You dont need to uninstall

[inland elbow]

I tryed to like reste it

But like

It doesn't allow me to even acces the mod files

[novel yew]

Wdym

You should be able to enter

[novel yew]

[slim jacinth]

has anyone found a way to mod the new gamepass update

???

[weary chasm]

Is there an available hk possum skin to download?

[inland elbow]

idk

No I think

[weary chasm]

Ty

[ivory aurora]

Sadly, no

[novel yew]

Possum?

[ivory aurora]

Pretty sure lucy's pfp is one

[weary chasm]

I am glad to know I am not the only one who wants this however I have no idea how to mod the game

[novel yew]

Lucy?

[ivory aurora]

Lucifer

[weary chasm]

Short for Lucifer, aka my pfp is an opossum, my love for opossums is evident and I desire an opossum skin

[novel yew]

Ah

Then yes

I would love a skin like that too

But i would also like a ferret skin

Cuter

[inland elbow]

How don't we have a skin based on this

This Would be amazing

[novel yew]

Because we didnt knew it existed

[ivory aurora]

Because people have other skins they want to do

[novel bronze]

Because making skins takes a really long time

And a lot of effort

[ivory aurora]

You want that as a skin, you gotta make it yourself

[inland elbow]

ok

imma get on that

[ivory aurora]

Or convince someone to do it, usually with the help of a tool we call "money"

[inland elbow]

I am sorry if I sounded mean, I didnt want to sound like thet

I'm sorry

[weary chasm]

The convincing part sounds easier
Who do I have to convince

[novel yew]

Team cherry

[novel bronze]

Someone who knows how to make a skin

[slim jacinth]

has anyone found a way to mod the new gamepass update
???

[novel yew]

Try the same as the old one but use scarab instead of modinstaller

50/50 it works

[novel bronze]

Oh it uses scarab now?

[abstract badger]

what lovely chances

[novel yew]

I mean i heard it doesnt work, but also that it works

[abstract badger]

best we got

[slim jacinth]

lol

k ill try

[storm holly]

can someone help me? i cant toggle or update the API on my scarab installer

[novel bronze]

You can’t

They aren’t available atm

Dw about them

[storm holly]

so no mods until they work again?

[novel bronze]

What

No mods willl work fine

What issue are you having

I have a question. Do mods cost money? And if so how much? I can’t seem to find the info online

[real jacinth]

No

Only thing you need to pay for

[novel yew]

Is the game

[novel bronze]

Is the game

[novel yew]

HAHAHA

[dawn veldt]

i swapped save file slots for my 2 save games, im not entirely sure how to relock all benches though

seems like deleting the modding stuff helped, teleported me in godhome though bruh

[unique perch]

yo quick question i remember there being a mod menu in radiance and i cant seem to find it in scarab

[wheat orchid]

Do you mean debug mod? It’s in scarab

Also has always been called debug

The term mod menu means something very different

[unique perch]

my chimp brain would have never figured that out thanks

[unreal grail]

does installing scarab mod isnatller delete my save files?

[wheat orchid]

No

[unreal grail]

okay

[wheat orchid]

Though you can encounter some bugs with mods that can make it look like that

There’s a fix in the pins though

[unreal grail]

well i see it

thanks for response :D

[wheat orchid]

Also you might want to back up your saves since mods can edit them

?saves go to the save files path and copy user#.dat (# is a save slot number) to another location

[unreal grail]

and also 1 question, does changing game version on steam delete my save files

[wheat orchid]

No

[unreal grail]

okay thx again

[wheat orchid]

But if you downgrade below 1.4.3.2 they might get buggy

What version are you planning to use?

[unreal grail]

good that i copied files and pasted to my packup folder

1.4.3.2

[wheat orchid]

Then don’t use scarab

[unreal grail]

and i just literally want the skin mod

why

[wheat orchid]

CustomKnight is on both 1.4.3.2 and 1.5

[wheat orchid]

It’s for ver 1.5, the other mod installers are for that ver

Oh no my internet

[unreal grail]

nnnnoooooo i need to install 1.5 update again D:

[wheat orchid]

You can also just get one of those installers

But you won’t have the latest mods and updates

[novel bronze]

As time goes on the reasons to still be on 1432 becomes less and less

[unreal grail]

uh can i pause the downloading update and select another rn?

[novel bronze]

Which one are you downloading rn

[unreal grail]

it wont bug out steam?

[wheat orchid]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Prob not

[unreal grail]

1.4

[wheat orchid]

Seeing as steam is very popular

[unreal grail]

nvm its alr doin' it

[wheat orchid]

And users have already had enough time to try that

[unreal grail]

i have VERY bad pc D:

[novel bronze]

Hey it could be worse

[unreal grail]

idk

aeugh i have 5 gb memory left

XD @idle relic "is in garbage"

(i know its a bot)

[novel yew]

In the garbage*

[unreal grail]

uh ok...?

so if i have scarab downloaded i need to extract it and open it to work?

[novel yew]

Yes

Dont forget to move the extracted folder to your desktop

[wheat orchid]

I give up for now

[unreal grail]

and i need to close steam while its downloading?

[novel yew]

Lmao

[unreal grail]

why

[novel yew]

He is slow

[wheat orchid]

No

[unreal grail]

k

[wheat orchid]

My fingers are cold

[unreal grail]

im opening now..

[wheat orchid]

Well the game should be installed first

[novel yew]

Lol

[unreal grail]

oh no i have viru- DIES

[wheat orchid]

If the game isn’t installed, while this installer won’t immediately install the api, it might fail to find hk’s path, if it doesn’t, then installing a mod will bug things

[unreal grail]

i have installed the game ._.

[wheat orchid]

Alright

[unreal grail]

i was playing for it 40 hours

(not straight)

[wheat orchid]

It needs to be done “updating” (aka installing) tho

[unreal grail]

its done not so long ago

okay for real now

well the "windows smart defender" (more like dumb) just blocked teh file (i know what to do)

should i do it or not

cuz my antivirus broke

[wheat orchid]

Just run it, we aren’t gonna pay to have that not appear

[unreal grail]

YES

IT WORKS

uh

[vernal rain]

it's not like discord deleted this server because we distributed virus's

[unreal grail]

how to download custom knight mod

[wheat orchid]

You click installed? On CustomKnight

[unreal grail]

i see it

[wheat orchid]

Then wait for the blue bar at the bottom to complete

[unreal grail]

now what i should click

[wheat orchid]

After the blue bar is done, just open the game. And dont mess with scarab or any other mod installer while the game is open

[unreal grail]

enabled? or installed?

im just dumb sorry

[wheat orchid]

I only told you to click installed? Didn’t I?

[unreal grail]

yeh the bar is blue

and it disseaperd

its downloaded?

[wheat orchid]

Then it’s installed

[unreal grail]

okay thx a lot

[wheat orchid]

Uncheck enabled? To disable it, check it again to enable it. Uncheck installed? To uninstall it

[unreal grail]

thanks bro :D

[novel bronze]

Make sure satchel is enabled for it to work

[wheat orchid]

auto installs dependencies

[unreal grail]

i hope they add sussy knight

[wheat orchid]

Do you know how to install skins?

[unreal grail]

ye

i watched tutorial

last question

do i need to have opened scarab while ingame

to work?

[wheat orchid]

If you’re following fireborn’s tutorial or another one not recently made, put skin folders inside the skins folder inside the CustomKnight folder. Also you switch skins inside the menu inside the mods menu which is in the options menu

[novel bronze]

No

[wheat orchid]

No

[unreal grail]

okay

lets go gaminggg

[novel bronze]

And please, do not try to install mods while your game is running

[wheat orchid]

.

[unreal grail]

should i start new game or my current save file

just asking

[wheat orchid]

Depends on the mods

[unreal grail]

i mean..

[wheat orchid]

Plus I’ve got no clue what you want to do

[unreal grail]

me too

just say random :I

idk

[wheat orchid]

random :|

[unreal grail]

new or current

...

[wheat orchid]

Again it depends on the mods

[unreal grail]

ok.?

i mean- ugh.. nvm

i mean that, idk what too choose but- ok nvm ill start new

i forgot to move skins ._.

so uh im at mods folder

and i opened the custom knight mod

where i need to put my skins

[novel yew]

Enter the game

Options > mods > custom knight > open folder

Put the skin there

[unreal grail]

ooh

okay

[novel yew]

Then close and open the game

[unreal grail]

so i need to put the skin folder in just skins folder?

[novel yew]

What

[unreal grail]

without putting it in default of swapper?

[novel yew]

No ignore default and swapper

Just psste or move the folder with the skins

[unreal grail]

oh ok

[novel yew]

Inside that folder

[unreal grail]

so in "skins" folder i have now that skin folder what i downloaded, "default" folder, and "swapperdemo" folder

right?

[novel yew]

Yes

Then close and re open the game

For it to load

[unreal grail]

[abstract badger]

It is in alphabetical order

[unreal grail]

you need to enable hidden files option

[inland star]

thatsa lot of errors

[unreal grail]

enemy hp bar..

[inland star]

how do i know what cause hollowpoint to keep fucking malfunctioning with soul

[unreal grail]

its still unstable

[inland star]

. . .

bruh

first custom skills then this

should've come with early warning lol

anyways so it should be fine once i disable it right?

[abstract badger]

Enemy hp bar shouldn’t be the cause of this

[abstract badger]

By send mod log text we mean send all of it like the text document/notepad

[inland star]

there ya go

[unreal grail]

did you were at fungal wastes?

justasking

*just asking

[inland star]

why

[unreal grail]

well i see enemy mantis error

what mods were u using?

[inland star]

thats the full list

hp bar was enabled too

[unreal grail]

lemme see..

wait it was?

i see it disabled on the list

[inland star]

disabled it rn after you guys said its unstable

[unreal grail]

wait so it crashed when you opened save in game?

immediatly?

[inland star]

not crushed, just soul refill stops working after like 2 minute

like you start shooting and soul automaticly refill after a bit?

ya it stops doing it

[unreal grail]

because it does not refill when you use spell

[inland star]

what spell, didnt even use the spell

[unreal grail]

soul refills after you hit enemy

okay idk wdym by that, i just will keep looking at errors

so the game crashed or what

[abstract badger]

the issue here is with hollow poiunt it seems but i don't know why hollow point would be having an issue

[inland star]

no its the mod hollow point

THE GUN MOD

[unreal grail]

oh

so i cant help sorry :/

[inland star]

[native ice]

Those errors show up when you have QOL installed, but shouldn't be causing issues from my brief testing

[inland star]

does the qol include benchwarp?

[native ice]

No

Just the QOL mod

[novel bronze]

where is the ModLog.txt file located (linux)? Debug mod is not loading properly

[novel bronze]

.

[native ice]

Do you have vasi?

[novel bronze]

oh I think that's it

[native ice]

Nvm

Debug doesn't use it

[novel bronze]

it doesn't?

[inland star]

well woulda look at that

its working now

without qol

and with hp bar

[native ice]

Huh

[inland star]

thanks man

[native ice]

Just the errors are gone or did that actually fix a problem?

[amber trail]

so i need help instaling the mod instaler

[subtle leaf]

hey, how should i update to scarab from 1432?

do i need to delete some things?

[inland star]

fixed thy problem

[native ice]

Nice

[novel bronze]

Ok, go on

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/462200562620825600/881371251602497606/hk_opt_into_beta.png

You only need to do this if scarab isn't working, or if a mod you want isn't on scarab

[amber trail]

[west bane]

your game and api are not on the same version, so you need to make sure youre using the right api for the right game version

[meager prism]

What does it mean if windows asked my to allow command center to affect the computer right after I used scarab

[novel bronze]

Click yes

[meager prism]

I cant get achievements

I got the stuff in game but I still don't have it on steam

Let me send a ss

[amber trail]

[west bane]

down/uppatch yoru game or use the other installer

[hazy cobalt]

How do I get achievements xd

[real jacinth]

impossible question

there is no scarab version that works on 1432

[hazy cobalt]

Mod Installer 1 (1.4.3.2)

or 2

[amber trail]

well i have the beta on none for hk and scarab for 17 and it still wont work

[wheat orchid]

Did you install any mods?

[amber trail]

yes

[real jacinth]

AFTER you changed to none

[wheat orchid]

In game does a mods list show on the top left?

[amber trail]

nope

[wheat orchid]

.

Did you use scarab or switch to none first?

[amber trail]

i used scarab

[real jacinth]

open scarab, install any new mod. then open game

[wheat orchid]

Switching to none changed the files, so scarab thinks the ModdingApi is installed, but it’s not

[amber trail]

alr

[wheat orchid]

?pins look for how to reset mod installer 2, it’s the same for scarab

[real jacinth]

you don't have to do anything fancy. just open scarab

and install a mod

[wheat orchid]

saving that one for later

[real jacinth]

that'll give the API back

[wheat orchid]

Oh it does?

[novel yew]

Saving that one for later too

[real jacinth]

yes

open scarab, install any new mod

then open game

ezpz

[wheat orchid]

I hate myself now

[abstract badger]

he did the thing

[hazy cobalt]

Does HKMP allow people to join your game and affect the world?

[real jacinth]

no. your world is your own

but they can hit stuff

[hazy cobalt]

Oof

[real jacinth]

but they can't see it

[hazy cobalt]

Ooff

Can they take dmg from it?

[real jacinth]

no

[wheat orchid]

No

That stuff doesn’t exist in their game

[hazy cobalt]

oh

[wheat orchid]

Plus getting hit by stuff you can’t see isn’t fun

[real jacinth]

your worlds are your own

your saves are your own

[hazy cobalt]

So they cant see your world

Only their own world

[real jacinth]

your player position is just shown to people you connect with

[hazy cobalt]

So if you just murdered the hk and they are in the arena with you they would still be fighting the hk right

[real jacinth]

their own, yes

[hazy cobalt]

Oof

[real jacinth]

there is no enemy syncing

[wheat orchid]

Frozen fingers making me 🐌 :(

[novel yew]

Yet

[hazy cobalt]

Is it possible?

[wheat orchid]

Yes

[novel yew]

AAAAAA

Ok

You win this time

[hazy cobalt]

Are the devs still worlking on it?

[novel yew]

AND ONLY this time

[wheat orchid]

Yes

[hazy cobalt]

:D

[novel yew]

AAAAA

[wheat orchid]

Prob focusing mainly on other things tho

Such as the api

[hazy cobalt]

Wdym api?

[real jacinth]

syncing enemies is not a high priority

it's very high effort to sync one enemy AI

not worth it

[hazy cobalt]

ok

[real jacinth]

cuz there's hundreds

[wheat orchid]

Basically thing for other mods to easily add functionality (I don’t know the specifics of it atm)

[hazy cobalt]

You have to sync every single one?

[wheat orchid]

Yeah

Different ai so

[real jacinth]

rewrite the AI for every enemy

so yeah

very time consuming

[hazy cobalt]

Individually?

[real jacinth]

yes

they are all unique code

[hazy cobalt]

ah

[wheat orchid]

I tried it a while back with the old multiplayer mods to create something that works for all enemies, never completed it

[amber trail]

thank you guys so much

[real jacinth]

enemy syncing has been in the works for literal years

[hazy cobalt]

Oh

[real jacinth]

but it's a very hard task

and nobody likes doing it

[hazy cobalt]

Maybe eventually we'll get it

If someone dedicates their time into doing it

[real jacinth]

so before you say oofff again, maybe have a little more respect

[hazy cobalt]

Yes ik

Its hard work

[wheat orchid]

You say that like people already haven’t

[hazy cobalt]

I thought they were dedicating their effort into other things >_<

[wheat orchid]

That doesn’t mean they haven’t already poured effort into that

[winged kraken]

ayo

[hazy cobalt]

Oh

[winged kraken]

does anyone know what this means

i have to use the old mod manager bc scarab doesn't work

i've tried closing all other processes and it doesnt do anything

[real jacinth]

.

[wheat orchid]

Are you also using the correct ver of the game?

[winged kraken]

its uhh

4.3.2.1

or somethin

[novel yew]

Lol

[wheat orchid]

Not it but yes, those numbers seem like it

[real jacinth]

[hazy cobalt]

What coding language do HK Mods use?

[west bane]

C#

[wheat orchid]

C#

Nooo

[hazy cobalt]

ok

[real jacinth]

Dflat

[hazy cobalt]

:l

[wheat orchid]

F#

[real jacinth]

B double sharp

[west bane]

isn't F# a language

[wheat orchid]

A flat minor

[wheat orchid]

Yeah

Made a hk mod in it cause why not

Not like I need to work on pale court or anything

[novel yew]

Work on it

[wheat orchid]

No, visiting my grandparents

[hazy cobalt]

How is 60hz different from 39hz?

[real jacinth]

they are different numbers

[wheat orchid]

1. Idk
2. Why

[west bane]

whatever 60-39 is

[wheat orchid]

I think it’s 3

[hazy cobalt]

In the resolution

[real jacinth]

hz is a frequency

how many instances per second

60 hz is 60 fps

if you're talking graphics

39 hz is 39 fps

[hazy cobalt]

oh

Thanks

[wheat orchid]

Imma head out, cya

[hazy cobalt]

Bai

[sharp sandal]

I have a question does the mod loader have enemy randomizer?

[novel yew]

Modinstaller has it

Scarab doesnt

[sharp sandal]

ah ok thanks!

[hazy cobalt]

Why does the HKMP mod say connection failed every time I try and join my friend?

[novel yew]

Elaborate

[hazy cobalt]

And for some reason our IP's are the same

well

I click host with a port number

and then he joins with the port number and the ip

then it says connection failed

[novel yew]

Thats not how it works

[hazy cobalt]

How does it work?

Download the zip that is the name of your os
Extract the file to desktop
Run scarab
Install a mod

aight the skin applies but the game just stops working q.q

[novel yew]

THATS PROB NOT A CUSTOM KNIGHT PROBLEM

AAAAAAAAAAAA caps

Are you using "Esc" or "B" on a controller

To exit the menus?

[muted geyser]

B

[abstract badger]

Don’t use b or whatever to close the menu use the back option or esc/three lines

[novel yew]

Dont

[muted geyser]

ohh aight, will keep taht in mind

[abstract badger]

🤔I don’t think that one counts but I’ll give you it

[novel yew]

It counts because all the info on your message was given before

And its wrong

You dont have to use Esc either

I heard it also makes it happen

[abstract badger]

No you can use esc though

I do

its enabled in a rando file still just normal map tho

[novel yew]

Please dont snail me

[real jacinth]

yes

it adds pins

for rando checks

if you want to randomize the actual map transitions, select those options in the randomizer options

I think you're not understanding what the randomizer map S mod does

[abstract badger]

now we’re equal

[zinc imp]

yep prooobably soooo lmao

If you met corn

In deepnest

[real jacinth]

close your game. delete any global settings files you have

This .bat will clear globalsettings.json automatically (along with other commonly messed up global settings files):
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/462200562620825600/889031834938265610/Global_Settings_Clear.bat

Or, to clear your settings files manually:
#archived-modding-help message

with one of these methods

[muted geyser]

still doesnt fix it

[real jacinth]

did you delete your settings file

with which method

[muted geyser]

yes

manually

[real jacinth]

and you deleted 2 of them

?

[muted geyser]

yes

[real jacinth]

with the game closed

[muted geyser]

yes

[real jacinth]

it says not found

[real jacinth]

well there you go

you don't have satchel

install satchel

[real jacinth]

game says otherwise

uninstall it and reinstall it

scarab does not check in real time what mods you actually have. so if you moved things or deleted them or something else, it won't update in the scarab ui

[muted geyser]

damn i remember why i didnt like modding/hacking games when i was younger xD

shit ton of details and errors

got it, now its working

pls help, I just have the modding API

Did you buy the game on steam?

yes

[novel yew]

Then try verifying file integrity first, then try entering

[supple elk]

ok

Go to steam > right click HK > properties > local files > verify game integrity

[supple elk]

I open again the game

all the mods are gone but the "bug" keep going

[novel yew]

Mhm

Then the bug is from vanilla game then

Or it modifies your aave

I know what happens!

Give me a second to get this

Ok so if it still happens after then im 100% sure its this

[supple elk]

don't work 😦

[novel yew]

You tried all the fixes for your version?

[supple elk]

srry I don't look that

[hoary shard]

When I boot the game I get the mod loading bar but none of my mods show up and when I start a save the bottom left says like #!#mainsub#!# and the game is completely broken

[pliant lantern]

The bottom text like that means that you are missing dependencies. So, you have mods installed, but they require other mods that you disabled for some reason

[hoary shard]

Oh ok

Thx

I’ll check my mods

thx!

trying to get itemsync working for a multiplayer rando with friends but we cant get it to work

You need to have the EXACT same settings and seed
The url should be default
You need to have the EXACT same room name too

[summer crag]

really the only thing that happens is when we start itemsync doesnt work

What IP do you use to connect to the other person for hkmp?

I’m using zerotier

[pliant lantern]

Did you read the guide that's linked in the pins?

[slim jacinth]

nope

[pliant lantern]

You need to connect to the Host's Managed IP. They give that to you by right clicking the ZT icon in the system tray, and opening up properties iirc.

[hoary shard]

Ok, thank you

[hoary shard]

Is that the managed IP?
