Just don’t open scarab with 1.2.2.1, re open it when you’re back in 1.5 and disable and enable the ModdingApi. If you have multiple installations, then it won’t interfere with anything except the path you originally gave it
Lol
Just like a second faster :(
As cyren once said: "Be lazier"
Oh, good. Thank you both!

No, as I once said I’m stubborn
Lol
how i solve it ?
It looks like it’s looking for files from godump/dumped knight sprites?
I don’t know anything about CustomKnight creator, but that’s not the path I remember godumped files being at
but i click on dump knight and my game crash so much but i stop
Ah

Elaborate
Could you explain?

Sorry for interrupting but how do you get multible installs of HK?
You sure you sent it b4 me
Over here
?guides
Thanks!
Look for the downpatching guide, then follow the part to get multiple installations working
Does CustomKnight creator ask for a file path?
You can’t install CustomKnight creator in scarab….
Also that is not installed yet (I think), keep scarab open until the blue bar on the bottom is done and “enabled?” Isn’t grey anymore
i tried to dump but when i click this make my game 1 fps and i stop i already made this one time
Are you trying to do it on the title screen or?
this is the only thing that i know of "dump sprite" "dump sprite" its something else my en is bad?
i am tryng to open custom skin creator with closed game
Can you send me the video you’re using?
using what ?
In this screenshot you have a video you are following instructions from

Hey quick question, I've got a mod installed, which HK data folder does it go in to be used? I have 4 options atm, "Managed", "Plugins", "Resources", and "Streaming Assets"
Managed
Thanks
Me too
Hi! I have two questions, if you guys don't mind.
First question: Is ItemPlacer / Plandoplando functional with the latest version of the game? If so, does it work differently than previously? I had an xml file for item switching that was functional in version 1.4.3.2 (whenever I started a new game while the mod was active, the items were successfully switched around), but it doesn't seem to work in the current version of the game.
Second question: Does the Game Object Dump mod only give atlases for the "moving" elements, and not the background? I was actually looking forward to it because I always struggle a lot to find the assets corresponding to the landscape...
Hi!
First, none of the mods from 1.4.3.2 work in current or any other patch, to get a newer version you should use the modinstaller "Scarab"
And I haven't tried object dump mod but im pretty sure it doesnt dump backgrounds
I have been using Scarab indeed, both for ItemPlacer and Game Object Dump! Sorry for not being clear on that.
I'm not sure whether plandoplando is a different mod entirely? But it isn't in the Scarab list, so if it relies on a mod that doesn't exist for the current version of the game, I guess that explains it.
The Game Object Dump test I made was in Infected Crossroads, and after pressing F2 I obtained a lot of atlases for particles and characters, but none about what makes up the background (besides particles -- stuff that shows up when you break stuff or get a hard landing).
I've heard about plandoplando but none of it related to latest patch. Sorry
Ok, thanks for your help anyway ^^

It's a bit sad that I can't use the latest version of the game because scarab's mods look so much better than those of v1.4.3.2! But ah well, guess we can't have everything at once xP Still, huge GGs to everyone who works on mods, y'all are amazing
Thanks
I'd join the fun if I didn't have a PhD and so many personal projects to work on lmao
"Fun"....
My PhD involves a lot of programming, we all understand what "fun" is xD

Hi, me and my friend just installed HKMP on Scarab, we did a private Hamachi network and all the enemies, items, etc basically the whole world is for each individual rather than one big network/server world. Is this just the mod, or is there a way around this since we want to do a coop experience? If it is just the mod, are there any coop hollow knight mods out there?
How HKMP Works
HKMP puts a copy of each player into each other players world. Enemies have separate health and can be in different places; items/abilities must be collected separately; breakable objects must be broken separately.
A player's attack will happen in each player's world, damaging any enemies/players it comes in contact with. A player is only hurt by the enemies in their own world.
Additional notes: Progress/Enemies/Bosses are not synchronized by HKMP. Due to how HKMP works, and the game not intending to be multiplayer there can be some odd interactions.
There are no alternatives.
You can still play a coop run together, but you should be aware of the differences.
Personally, I've done coop stuff with people while both streaming to each other on Discord, so that we could easily hit eachothers enemies and such.
aye
why when my friend get a skin i see them slaying same color as me
Thats normal with ck
If you're using HKMP, then you need to setup the skins within HKMP
how?



Idk if snail dwarf, or not because he bothered to get the page link
I think I am going to snail dwarf because it would be a new experience
Eh no
I agreen't
About the other thing...
Wait a minute am i getting crazy or
Dwarf one moved his eyes 
OMG IT DID
the id are matching the same
Congrats
why it does that then
I meant the palehmm
The pfp changes day to night
What am I meant
That is what hkmp does it only syncs skins not any other things like spells
Oh woah
Yes
Hollow Knight mods on the Xbox Gamepass (for PC) I just found out about this so I can’t really give a very detailed guide on how to do this but I’ll try my best.If you launch the Xbox app (and you also have the gamepass subscription activated) you will be able to install Hollow Knight: Voidhe...
Do this but get scarab instead of a modinstaller
Isn’t game pass 1.5.8 or something?
"get scarab installed a modinstaller"
Yeah
Yes
Got downgraded iirc
Well somebody who has it is saying it’s 1.5.8?
Yeah because they updated on gamepass
ok gamepass lets you pick the folder btw
this guide is old but works
is there a way i can put all other effect in the same skin folder?
so i can still have magic spells and other things?
and still have multiplayer?
You can use ck but the other player won't see them
can i use both at same time?
so my friend can still see me but not spells but i can
Yes
how can i put my skins in the folder i put them in swap?
For mp or ck?
ck
Put the unzipped skin folder in the skins folder
Yes
has anyone experienced or advices on modding new language(translated) to the game?
There's more languages look at the source code of it would help
I'll see what i can do with it,thank you
is there a way to make changes made with weavercore debug permanent?
why does using debug mod freeze me when i shade cloak?
Most likely, you accidentally bound pause-less-pause or a time-scale-related thing to the same button.
oh yea thats what happend i fixed it already

Do mods not work on 1.4.3.2 anymore? I have the game in japanese for the sake of speedrunning. But every time i download the modding api and other mods, the game sets back to english, no mod names on screen, and my saves are wiped. Only uninstalling the game or verifying the integrity of the game files reverts back to japanese and restores my saves
no its cool im in quarantine
im also not part of the mods or helpers
do you have the right version of scarab ect
Whats scarab ect?
scarab/mod installer 1 or 2

yeah i checked pins, thats how i have the actual mod, but im not sure how to import the mod into the HK files
"change path"
Instant dreamers inventory in air and other sr stuff so it literally does what it's named
could someone help me privately to help me on a modinstaller problem?
There's a yt video with the drive link
Why privately?
because then they write as we speak

I'm not English anyway (I'm Italian, maybe you understand from how I write)
okay it doesn't matter

Make sure you're using the correct installer for your game version though.
If you just got the game, then you're likely in 1.5, which uses Scarab

but the 1.10?
?
I think this is right, and now go because it asked me the path and this time I put the steam one, I try and warn in case it doesn't work again, thanks
is hollow point broken? i load the mod on the old modloader (bc enemy rando) and it gives me shotgun and i can only fire one non-damaging shot and then it breaks
Reload that save
i'll try that
I don't see lightbringer in scarab. is there any way to play lightbringer still through scarab? or do i have to use the old installer?
Lightbringer isnt on scaraab, but i rhing you can get the 1.5 version manually
oh? how so?
Hello! Sorry for maybe some stupid questions, but I need help with Scarab.
Do I understand correctly that it is the only thing I need to install mods? Because it doesn't open for me. Task Manager shows it in processes for a few seconds and then it disappears. It's not like some files are missing or my PC doesn't have the right dll files installed?
Try redownloading it, also is the folder extracted?
It is extracted. I also downloaded different versions, but it's still the same
I don't need to put it in some other folders for it to at least open, right?
So trying to open scarab.exe it doesnt open
Yes
Well is it on your downloads folder?
If so i recommend getting out ofnthere
I tried to open it from there, from desktop and from HK folder, but no changes
Well desktop should be the place, try opening with admin
I think for it to work for me, i had to delete the folder for the modinstaller itself. It was either in appdata of documents or something. Once i did that, i was able to redownload it and it worked. I sont remember the correct filepath to find it though. And my pc isbt nearby at the moment. But its roughly what i did, im sure. Happened a while ago, so thats why i cant remember where that folder is
But its a folder modinstaller makes, and deleting it helped me
Huh, I will try that
Its not like you for example have to delete the whole downloads folder. But i believe theres a folder for modinstaller itself somewhere
Yeah, seems about right, I will try to delete that folder now
Yeah, it is
Yep, I should've guessed it's w7 problem, thanks for helping, gonna downpatch it then
it turns out i have run out of my use of winzip, does anybody have an alternate app that I can use so that I can extract the scarab files?
7zip
ok thx
does anyone know why this is happening

Is your game open?
okay thank you

oh thanks you that worked
So, uh, it seems like I also have problems with ModInstaller, so a simple question.
Can I manually install any of the mods? Do I need to create a mod folder somewhere, or just put all the mod files in the game folder itself?
Yeah you can manuall y indtall modd, modinstaller 1 has a option for that
Whats your problem with modinstaller
And are you suing MI or MI2
MI
And whats the problem
whats the name of the mod that gives every charm and ability
all i remember is that there is a small menu top right corner
Debug mod
thx
It just sends a ton of errors at me and says that the programme might be installed incorrectly (I already tried to reset the MI, but it just goes in circles). Then it gives me just the option to manually install them, but when I tried to manually download the multiplayer mod it told me that it was successfully installed, yet nothing changed. Am I missing some core mod that I need? Or is it all because of that error?
Actually, now when I think about it, MI didn't even asked for my game path when I opened it, and putting it in the game folder also didn't changed anything
Btw installers shouldnt ever be on downloads or game folder since it can break
Well you can try using MI2 and see if it works
This is because your .net framework is outdated
So either download the updated versions from Microsoft, or update your OS to something that is not 7
I'm not even sure the updated frameworks are supported on 7. Maybe they are. Can't remember
Woo mickely here to save the day
And now that you are here, we wanted to show you smth

How to open item sharing in hollow knight multiplayer mode?
are you talking about itemsync
well from my knowledge you don't share items in multiplayer unless youre doing itemsync randomizer
Then install randomizer and itemsync
And follow thid
Thank you so much! They do have updated frameworks for 7, so everything works perfectly now
uhm 1 question where can i find a list with all the mods for 1.4.3.2?
I installed the enemy hp bar mod but the hp bar is too big and when I open the settings to change it this shows up
does anyone know how can I fix this?
no i'm sorry
the modinstaller
maybe uninstall and re-install the mod?
I tried that and it didn't work
looks like you're using a non-normal resolution
change to 1080p or 720p or something
ok
how do i get mod installer for 1.4.3.2?

Check the pinned messages for more information - https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/187137504393035776/823796522751623168/unknown.png
well, changing the resolution doesn't fix it
well what did you change to. and what was it at before
can i use mods for the xbox pc gamepass version?
yes
ok
try editing enemyhpbar's settings file
before it was 5120 x 2880 and I changed it to every resolution that hollow knight has
yeah ultra wide isn't supported
the mod was written based on 1920x1080
if you tried that and restarted your game and it did nothing, changing to non-fullscreen would probably do it
ok, I'll try
but yeah, you can change the scale settings in the global settings file for the mod
it's 1.0 by default
so you could change it all to like.... 0.33
Ok I downloaded the mod installer but every time I press on the hollow knight folder it's say "invalid hollow knight path"
I'm playing hollow knight from the game pass and using version 1.4.3.2

You got the wrong one it looks like
You got "source code"?
Hey guys can someone tell me how can i get the ModInstaller to work on 1.2 ? I can not do explosion poggo for the speedrun if im above 1.2
Get windows.zip
i did
1.2.2.1 doesnt have modinstaller
It wont work
This image looks like the source code tho
What happens when you try to extract windows.zip then?
just this
This is literally the source code Lmao
What app are you using to extract it
How do I enable?
But it's not even downloading
Does modding api have anything to do with it?
It says out of date

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.

I just updated scarab and I want to uninstall the custom knight mod but whenever I try to uninstall it gives me a pop up saying "An exception occurred while installing or uninstalling Custom Knight."
Yeah.....
oKAY that's a lot better
Yes your friend…
i was hoping someone didn't just admit to pirating a game

Well i have trust issues
true it is the internet but i don't think someone would admit to pirating on a popular discord server
That has happened before....
A LOT OF TIMES
Some ppl even admit tos violation
And etcetcetc
I have the issue of the only way this could happen is a pirate
💀💀
I saw someone get banned
Ypu know whats the thing?
They were a pirate.
"I cant buy the game, im only 12"
Double oof
Where have I heard that one 
No I am saying that every pirate says something along this lines
Yeah true
why would they say both of those
Do they seem intelligent
and also why do they act like 12 year olds never get money or something
yeah good point
Is there a mod that allows fast retrying bosses in godhome or something like that?

ok yep it was
rip pure vessel skin


must have been deleted because it just lead me to the 404 page
what problem here
mine for every mode
you can try a skin called "the hollow knight", i saw a comment saying it is very similar to this one, and you can find it on google drive
You may need to run Scarab as Administrator.
oh yea i saw that it just kinda sucks cuz the white cape is cooler i'll jsut use it anyway
Assuming you're not having internet issues, you may just need to wait like 15 minutes and try again.

Hi guys, I'm having some problems and I was wondering if someone would be so kind and help me. I know it's probably my fault because I'm not that good with all this modding stuff.
What I'm trying to do is to play Hollow Knight with Enemies and Items randomized. I don't really wanna randomize anything else, just the enemies and the items/charms/grubs.
Here's what I did:
- I installed the lastest version of Scarab
- For items I went with the Randomizer 4 which, if I understood correctly, is the to-go mod for item randomizations.
- I cannot seem to find the Enemy Randomizer in the mods list with Scarab, I only find a Enemy Changer which, to my understanding, only serves to change enemy sprites and not actually randomize them.
What am I doing wrong? Can someone help me and guide me?
Thank you in advance and sorry for the trouble
Enemy randomizer isnt on scarab
Hots link the faq
@exotic shale
Third one
Oooh I see, I somehow missed that FAQ, sorry
So if I wanted to do that I would have to downgrade my game to 1.4, then use the Modinstaller to install Enemy Randomizer and Randomizer 3, right?
Its easy to miss dw
Yes
Yeep
||but im the one who got the heart||
He got the heart too, I'm just slow! xD
Lol
Thank you so much guys, I'll try that right now
Do you know where I put the skin file for scarab custom knight

Hey how do you download the multiplauer mod
Do you know what scarab is?
Yes I have it
Then enter scarab and download HKMP
K
Then follow this guide ^^
hey so i just saw a my scarab is out of date so whats the process for downloading the new one. Deleting the old one and installing the new one with mods and everything again?
Also I used the custom knight mod on the previous scarab so if i just download the new one and delete the old one will it work or will i need to put my skin folders in a different place
Just get the new one and that’s it
Custom knight skins arent affected
alright, thanks
just wanted to make sure since i dont want my game to break or anything lol, not the most experienced with modding
If I wanted to install a randomizer mod, randomizer 4 would be the one to install, right? Along with all the other mods in depends on
Yep
👌

does anyone know how to solve the problem of the enemy hp bar's scales being too big?
is it possible to find a import a game save file...cos I wanna do path of pain again but don't wanna go through everything b4 it
Yes, but you can also use QoL wich re opens path of pain
My game is freezing when I close the menu with B instead of pressing "A" on the "Close" dialog. Only have AdditionalMaps, Custom Knight, Satchel, and SFCore. Any advice on this? (other than not closing the menu with B lol)
Dont press B, its a known glitch
Going to be fixed next modding api update
Ah, gotcha. Looking forward to the update!
Well there is another solution
Play Vanilla?
Basically download a mod that forces quitting the menu when that happens, but you need to push another button for that so its easier just pressing close
Yeah, I figure I'll just learn to press close instead. Thanks for the help!
hello
my custom knight not working
i have skins in the right folder yet when i click apply skin nothing changes no error ive tried fix/reload and changing it in the home menu
Go to the custom knight folder
And make sure when u click this skin these all show up and it's not another folder inside that folder
Also make sure it's not a zip
Well in the pic we can see its not a subfolder

Hi, I'm having bluetooth xbox controller issues with mods. Without mods my controller works fine, with mods the game stops taking my inputs. Any ideas? I've tried toggling native inputs, I've enabled inputs in steam, I've tried uninstalls and reinstalls of mods and the game
hi guys I can not seem to download the daughter of hallownest skin is it different to other skins and if so how do I install it ? thx
1.5.78 Is there a mod for?
Hi all, just wondering if anyone is having the same problem as me where achievements do not show up in the game menu. I am downpatched to 1.4.3.2 for compatibility with Custom Knight installed by the ModInstaller v8.7.1
does anyone know why my game keeps crashing? i just switched from mod installer 2 to scarab
@sharp roost
Oh thanks
if i wanna update scarab do i just replace the files?
No need to replace any thing just get the new download
so i just download the new one, unzip and run it?
Yeah
now i gotta bunch of out of date mods, i dont see any way to update them
Hit the orange box
bit of a weird ui imo but it works
Is it possible to mod... With hollow knight on a switch
can anyone tell me a place to find cool skins?
uhm where can i find a list of all the mods?
look at the pinned messages
I'm wanting to start playing the randomizer mod, what are the best settings for those who are starting?
No
thx
It’s up to you these kind of questions are better in #randomizer
oh makes sense 
ok
i got myself the custom trial mod but i dont know how to begin
can soemone give me an example of an custom trial code
Yes
where do I get this Hollow Knight skin?
It’s going to be in one of the first two folders, I just forget which one
do you know the name of it?
I’d just look through to see which one it is since they’re images, but it should be The Pure Knight or The Hollow Knight in the first folder
Awesome!
Hello. I want to use daughter of hallownwest skin but the mod installer don't work on my device

It sounds like you're using an old installer.

Do I need to downpatch to install the ModInstaller? I just downloaded a fresh install of HK but the ModInstaller says it needs the latest stable build.
Scarab is the latest modinstaller btw
Ah, thanks a lot. I was looking in #modding-discussion pins and didn't notice there was an installer in #archived-modding-help pins 
Yeah things are easy to miss in these channels, hope you enjoy the mods, mod
Ok that joke was too bad
Sorry
I'm just doing a vanilla playthrough with the Killer Whale skin since it's my favorite from the skins I've seen.

How can I know enemies path to use swapper demo?
pretty sure swapper has a dump
Ohhh, thanks a lot. I'll use this one.
#modding-discussion pins should probably be updated to point to #archived-modding-help
np, dwarf's the one who sent it though
Btw wasnt the name "Daughter of Hallownest"?
Hollawnest
Oh yeah dwarf you got a typo
Holanest
channel called #archived-modding-help cuz I am screaming to be saved from this reality
The zip had the right name 
Lol
How do i use it tho
check settings, there should be a toggle for dumping whatever scene you're in
If i dump bvessel will it get the balloons too?
Can I play online mod with friends of windows?
Ehm yea?
yeah, dumps entire scene
remember to turn it off or it'll dump every scene you enter, iirc
I was able to select a path for Scarab on the Xbox App. But now when I try to install a mod this happens,
Can anyone help with this?
Is the game open?
does anyone know how the Hollow Point mod works? I equipped Fusilier's Fury, but it doesn't seem to be affecting anything
any way to fix thi?
I do have it open
Do someone KNOWS a Devil may Cry Mod For Hollow knight? Like a Dante,Vergil,Nero Skin?
or a Custom hud
I dont think that exists
thats pretty sad
Well if you are good drawing you can make it yourself
i tough about it tho
also
theres even a chance
that if i put a mod with scarab
ill lose my save file?
No
Anyways
I suggest you to get moresaves mod
It makes extras of your saves
In case somehow smth happens (wich will probably not)
oh, ill search it

Yes coding your own mod or edit the gamefiles wich is harder

C#

hi!! ive been having some issues with the custom knight mod? at first, it just didn't work at all and then i added a second skin to the nekomata one i already was using, but now im having some issues where if anything is white, it has this weird blue neon shine. im not sure what couldve caused this? the only mods i have is custom knight and hollow knight multiplayer, and the only skins are laurel knight and nekomata. here are examples of it doing this, ive tried taking a screenshot of this but it doesnt work. i think i can take a photo with my phone instead to show whats its doing (im on macbook)

Hey i'm putting on the daughter of hallownest skin on and its kinda confusing. i understand go deeper into the file and finding the base file but there is also hp bar and different added effects. I got the skin on, but not the additional stuff and I don't know how to add it
Second
^
It says simplified. Does it remove the hp bar?
or just help the installation process
Helps i think
yeah it does remove the hp bar. It just removes all of the extra stuff from hornets skin which is what I want to add
it has a hollow_knight_data folder that I've been told to replace my folder with but would that confuse scarabs mod location?
is there a way to change the mod menu off of F1?
Yes
how?
In the binds menu search for it
Options > Mods > Custom Knight (doesnt work on main menu)
please help I think my skin is absolutely broken
Restart the game
i got the grimmknight skin

where?
Below continue
oh, thanks

is there a way to use an enemy randomizer mod on macbook? i have scarab installed, but i cant use ModInstaller
mi1/mi2 are 1.4.3.2 only
do any of the mods disable achievements? like debug or benchwarp?
No iirc
No they do not
ok cuz i got some achievements while playing a rando but now for some reason i havent been getting any achievements
i always play with QoL, debug, benchwarp and custom knight
||** **|| disables achievements
...
I can’t remember have we found the reason behind this?
cant download any mode
Is your wifi GUD?
2mb/s
that's way higher than mine and it works for me
Do what it says
what the last version?
i have 1.9.0
Then update it
how
already
Well it only happens when you open it so you need to close it then open it again
I keep getting this error when launching the game with a mod on (i'm using scarab)
nothing happen
Where did you purchase the game?
I got it on steam
Then try deleting scarab, then download it again
Question about making backup of our saves. If i want to backup (or remove to free one save slot) one of my save file, i always read that you only have to copy the userX.dat. But what do i do with the other files "linked" to that save? (like userX.json, userX.modded.json, userX_1.15.68.dat etc.. ?) If i want to backup that file do i have to copy them too? and i want to free that save slot i have to delete them?
hmm ok i need the link
They aren’t linked, they’re just backups of the save
Don’t need to mess with them at all to delete or copy saves
I mean, where’d you get it last time?
here but i lost it
?i

ok so for example if i want to backup or remove my 3rd save slot i just have to copy/delete user3.dat ? all the others i dont care? (its a modded save)
Yes
Actually
If it’s modded you also need userX.modded.json
ah ok that's good to know
And if you’re using the Qol mod, userX.json
okay yeah i'm using it
If you take off the qol mod and make progress, delete the userX.json file before re enabling it
ok 🙂 well i have it always enabled now so should be ok
You 100% sure?
@hushed nebula
They used scarab, and the error says it’s unity 2020, so I only see one option…
well thanks a lot, im always afraid to do a mistake with save files, now i have the answers it should be good 😉
Oh yeah missed the I used scarab part lol
i install it from steamunlocked its fine?

You realize that’s illegal right?
modding doesn't support pirated game dude
