[west bane]

-Troubleshooting
If you are able to, please try to troubleshoot your issues. If your problem is a mod, try seeing if the mod has a README that could give you info to rectify your problem. Additionally, remove several mods until you find the problem mod by process of elimination. If your problem is a mod installer, try reading carefully and use critical thinking. More often than not your problems can be solved with a click of a mouse.

-Asking for Help
You can ask for help but be smart about it. Generic questions get generic answers or are more often ignored, or it's a question game. Ask smart specific questions like so:
-Explain your problem in detail
-Explain all solutions you have tried thus far
-Give vital information like where you bought the game, game version, OS, and input devices (e.g. controller / keyboard)
-If your problem pertains to mods, list ALL mods installed
-Screenshot your game's title screen.

have you tried changing your nail damage with debug

have you checked out the mods readme

Me and my friend are trying to play on the new Archipelago multiworld, he got the server up and running, but whenever we try to join the game Hollow Knight just crashes and/or says socket closed unexpectedly. Any help?

[pliant lantern]

You'll probably want to ask on the Archipelago Discord, which is linked on the website for it

[slow sluice]

i have a 1 question in spanish

a donde le doy?

? :S

[vernal breach]

My game keeps crashing everytime it tries to open

It shows the hollow knight logo next to a red triangle with a white exclamation

Then it doesn't go into the games

[modest quest]

ok to fix your game go to steam > right click HK > properties > local files > verify game integrity

and make sure you're using the scarab installer

[vernal breach]

I don't know where to find that to be honest with you

The installer

[novel bronze]

just verify game integrity

[modest quest]

first pinned message

but yeah verify integrity first

[vernal breach]

It worked

I appreciate your guys' effort

[novel bronze]

mhm

[vernal breach]

I would've been stuck here for the next 6 years

[long igloo]

where do i find the items that transcendence mod adds?

[summer plaza]

hey guys whats the link for the vpn if scarab isnt working?

[covert valve]

https://1.1.1.1/ is a trusted free vpn

[kind plover]

hi guys, i downloaded the modinstaller and all following a fireborn tutorial, launched the game and it shows the sentence modding api: some numbers, tho when i press escape there's nothing showing as in the video. any ideas?

[warm roost]

Most of the tutorials on yt are outdated, check the pins for an up to date installer and a guide

[pure charm]

where can I find the programming of the bosses

[covert valve]

With the fsm viewer and redfrog is working on a fsm decompiler so you get the code in c#

[pure charm]

is there any way to look at the programming now?

[solar crater]

i am trying out the custom pantheons mod and i did this but i think i am missing something because it isnt working

is there really something i missed?

[covert valve]

Yes with the fsm viewer

[pure charm]

which file contains the programming of the bosses (sry for all the questions btw)

[cedar shadow]

, to split room name

[solar crater]

oh

it works thank you

uh

i said that too soon

it has invisible hornet

nothing is even hurting me hornet is just gone

[cedar shadow]

,I will check it

[covert valve]

You can open it by searching for the scene th e boss is in

[solar crater]

sorry for ping, but the 3rd time i tried it, hornet only dropped into the arena after around 10 seconds. and when she threw her needle it was backwards.

now she is stuck in that position

i havent tried what happens when you defeat her

[lost sparrow]

You're going to need a way to view FSMs (https://github.com/nesrak1/FSMViewAvalonia/releases/tag/v4)
You'll then need to figure out what scene the boss you want is in (I use this map https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/879341621349593138/914561910689652766/AllTransNamesMap.png)
You'll then need to open the FSM Viewer and go to File --> Open Scene List --> [SCENE THE BOSS IS IN]
For example, for Protector Hornet you would want to open Fungus1_04_boss and then you'd be looking at everything in that scene. Her "code", in this case, is in Hornet Boss 1-Control, so you'd open that

[solar crater]

i tried what happens. the 4th time i tried hornet dropped into the arena on time and a few of her attacks went fine but when she threw her needle the same thing happened. after that lost kin drops late into the arena too, but his attacks are fine. the radiance does not spawn in the phase with platforms

[pure charm]

welp time to make The ___ lords and the Pantheon of lords

[cedar shadow]

Well,I try it,and everything works no problem

[solar crater]

weird ....

maybe i just have to keep playing it??

[cedar shadow]

emmm,what mods you used?

I think maybe mod have conflict?

[solar crater]

i will send screenshot

wait

plus weavercore

[covert valve]

why does it crash?

[cedar shadow]

[frozen yew]

thanks

[abstract badger]

Put the .dll in a folder you create in your mods folder

[prisma gyro]

they are really like polyong like

its not smooth for any animation

[abstract badger]

Send a screenshot of what you mean?

[abstract badger]

What’s wrong with it

[prisma gyro]

the slash is like a triangle

[novel yew]

And how do you know its not meant like that?

Looks cool

Imo

[prisma gyro]

thats what i was wondering

ive tried it a few times but it always comes out like that so ill look at a showcase

[abstract badger]

Mine looks like a normal circular slash 🤔

[prisma gyro]

on aether phase?

[abstract badger]

Yeah

[novel yew]

Uh

[abstract badger]

Is this with mop?

Because it looks like it is and mop makes it look like that it is just something the skin does

[prisma gyro]

whats mop

[novel yew]

Mark of pride

[prisma gyro]

yes

i thinks thats why

[abstract badger]

Yeah that’s just the skin then

[abstract badger]

Who’s hotspring🤔

Not me

[prisma gyro]

when standing still i looks like its cloak is supposed to be blowing in the wind but it looks very geometrical and not very smooth is that how it looks for you

[abstract badger]

Yeah it is made to look as they are a mage and like having a crystal circling them as they “magically” move there cloak

[prisma gyro]

oh i see i think the animation just is a little rough but thats fine

[abstract badger]

Still not me the n should not have a slash through it

[novel yew]

There isnt a slash wdym

Go to the eyes doc

[abstract badger]

give up Ismoil don’t warp the snail meta

[novel yew]

Accept your snail

L

[abstract badger]

Not until you accept your snails

[novel yew]

What snails? Also that phrase confirms you got snailed

:destruction:

[novel yew]

Show the message where im supposedly "getting snailed"

That can be you sending messages on a priv server

[abstract badger]

sigh see your in denial

[novel yew]

What

[novel bronze]

can any of you please send me a modinstaller link please. Idk which one is the right one thank you

Hey, I'm trying to use the hollowpoint mod, but the gun doesn't seem to do damage and it only fires one bullet before it needs to reload, regardless of what charms I use. Am I doing something wrong?

[novel yew]

Is it a new file?

[ruby compass]

How do i open benchwarp or any mod menu in the game

[novel yew]

Press esc

On a save file

[ruby compass]

Thx

[ashen relic]

It is a brand new file, I only have debug mod enabled

[tribal wedge]

i was using modinsaller and today i switched to scarab and i wanted to go back to 1.5 anyone know how?

[ashen relic]

Should be the same way you switched to 1.4, just put latest version instead

[tribal wedge]

yeah but 1.5 doesnt show up only 1.2 and public beta

unless its public beta

[ashen relic]

It doesn't label it with the actual version number, it should be just listed as latest version

[tribal wedge]

im gonna try public beta cuz its the only one thats not numbered

[ashen relic]

I just pulled it up, its not listed latest version its listed as none my mistake

[tribal wedge]

oooooo

ok

tysm

[ashen relic]

np

[compact laurel]

im trying to use scarab, i selected my content folder (im on gamepass btw) and everything seemed fine but when i try to install a mod it just says an exception occured with no detail

[abstract badger]

.

[ashen relic]

Think I found out what was wrong with my gun mod, readme said to reload the save after making it

going to try that ill get back to you

This didn't seem to change anything

Anyone know why in the hollowpoint mod I can only fire a single shot that doesn't do damage?

There's also a number displayed next to my adreneline meter that goes behind the icons if that helps

[pliant lantern]

That's the issue that reloading normally fixes

[ashen relic]

It didn't tho

[pliant lantern]

You may need to save and quit, then close the game and reopen it completely

[ashen relic]

closing and reopening did not have any effect, but I just realized I have infinite saves i'm going to try seeing if that broke it

That had no effect

I have to go for now I'll try to figure this out later

[winter mantle]

it says i can update it but it also says it couldn't find the HK installer settings setting. when i re-open the mod manager, i still can't update it

here is the error message

[pliant lantern]

• You don't need to worry about it not finding things.
• you're probably running the incorrect installer

What is your game version?

Notably the first pin has info on which installer to use for what patch

[winter mantle]

i think i figured it out thank you

[blissful prawn]

so which one of these is the actual randomizer

[warm roost]

Randomizer 4

[blissful prawn]

ok ty

[warm roost]

But iirc RandomizerCore is a dependency, so you'll need it too

[blissful prawn]

yeah it'll install automatically anyway

is this only an item randomizer? i can't seem to find enemy or location settings

ok i found the room randomizer settings, but enemy is still missing

[mild isle]

Anyone know where I can get a grub count tracker / relic count tracker compatible with Scarab?

[real jacinth]

Bingo ui

[mild isle]

Sweet, thanks

[hasty flint]

Hi, i'm having trouble with the randomiser mods - I just opened my save and the knight hadn't spawned and the screen was shaking and I get the following error when I try to start a new randomiser save

Wonder if anyone could help? Thankss

[novel yew]

I dont really know whats happening. But try to check you have all dependencies

[hasty flint]

So I have checked and I have these installed

Which I think is everything?

According to the wiki anyway

[warm roost]

Enemy rando hasn't been ported to scarab yet

[novel yew]

Do you have randocore?

[novel yew]

Wiki??

There's a mod wiki?

[hasty flint]

Theres a page on the hollow knight wiki about mod dependencies

[novel yew]

I never saw that

Can you send link?

[hasty flint]

On scarab it says its installed and enabled

[warm roost]

Didn't know that but as Ismoil said RandomizerCore seems to be missing

[hasty flint]

https://hollow-knight-randomizer.fandom.com/wiki/Setting_Up

[hasty flint]

Okay thank you ill try and see what I can do with that

[abstract badger]

This guide kinda pains me lol

[novel yew]

X2

Xbox discrimination

[abstract badger]

1.5.77

[novel yew]

Lmao

[ashen relic]

alright, I'm going to try and fix my hollowpoint mod

I was here earlier and had to leave, but basically I'm on scarab, game version 1.5 with just debug and infinite saves, but for some reason my gun only fires one bullet at a time and it doesn't hurt anything. I tried quiting and reloading the save like the readme says to, but it doesn't fix it

Does anyone know what else I can try?

Oh, also this is the steam version

[hasty flint]

So I've tried adding randomiser core manually and removing and reinstalling it through scarab and it's not showing up anywhere - any ideas what else I can try?

It's so weird as everything was working properly this morning

[ashen relic]

Wait what's modCommon

Hollowpoint's readme says it needs this but scarab doesn't support it?

I think I found why hollowpoint isn't working for me fm

[west bane]

satchel = modcommon

[ashen relic]

ah then I have no idea

Hey does scarab support enemy rando?

I've given up with the gun mod I'm just going to mess with rando

[novel bronze]

No

Not yet at least

[ashen relic]

Thats fair, thanks everyone

[hasty flint]

Managed to get everything working again, thanks for all the help ☺️

[graceful whale]

I'm really stupid when it comes to mods and such
How do I enable randomizers?
I see there's a lot of them but I don't know which ones to install

[novel yew]

Hi mishu!

[graceful whale]

Hi :]

[novel yew]

You would want randomizer 4

But recent items display and randomizer map mod are a must too

[graceful whale]

They only work only if I make a new file right?

[novel yew]

Yes

[graceful whale]

oke thanku

[novel yew]

[fresh finch]

Hello, would anyone mind helping me wrap my head around the HK Multiplayer mod?

:3

[novel yew]

Ok i could help

[fresh finch]

I tried to use the Mod installer's Server and client multiplayer.

With a friend but it doesnt seem to work.

I've seen people talking about using hamachi?

[novel yew]

Hmm

Those mods are extremely (just very, i like exxagerating) outdated

[abstract badger]

No they are extremely

[fresh finch]

LMAO.

Fair enough.

What should I use then?

[novel yew]

HKMP

[abstract badger]

You should probably up patch to 1.5

[novel yew]

Yeah

[fresh finch]

This?

[novel yew]

Yeah

I suggest you to up-patch and follow this guide
#archived-modding-help message

[fresh finch]

I get this.. hmmm.

[novel yew]

Ok.

[novel yew]

^^

[fresh finch]

I have it how.

now*

Just to make sure I know what I'm doing, I click on "Installed?" for the things I have installed on the modinstaller?

[novel yew]

Yes

No

Installed? Tells if the mod is installed or not

Click it to download the mod

[fresh finch]

Should I not use mod installer anymopre then?

[novel yew]

Yep

Thats outdated

[fresh finch]

Oki.

Lemme try to help my friend.

[young abyss]

Friend here uh in Scrab is there the muliplayer Client and server in it as ModCommon i cant find it is the thing

[novel yew]

There isnt, because those are extremely outdated

[fresh finch]

Is it multiworld that we need to play together?

[novel yew]

What?

[novel yew]

Multiworld doesnt exist on 1.5, if you want to play randomizer multiplayer then use itemsync

[young abyss]

if its outdated what do u use instead

[novel yew]

HKMP

[fresh finch]

OHHH

[novel yew]

Thats a dependency

[young abyss]

there are 3 of em like just the normal one?

[novel yew]

What?

[fresh finch]

From these?

[novel yew]

You only need a mod to play multiplayer

[mossy smelt]

hkmp, the others are addons

ie, not hkmp

[novel yew]

You should get them all imo, click the name of the mod

[fresh finch]

I see.

Oki! tysm.

[novel yew]

[mossy smelt]

You'll only be able to join other servers with all those installed

[young abyss]

okay thy

[mossy smelt]

unless that's what moddiff solves, hmm

[fresh finch]

Hmm Now my HK doesnt start ouff.

[novel yew]

It is

[novel yew]

Did you uppatch?

[fresh finch]

Ah.

It's still on 1.4.5.whatever.

[novel yew]

Go to steam right click hk and then click properties

Then betas

Set it to none

[fresh finch]

oki sweet.

That was gonna be my question.

SO that answers it.

ty guys so much btw.

[novel yew]

[fresh finch]

So with this new Modder, how do custom knight work?

[novel yew]

You go to a save file

Pause menu

Options

Mods

Custom knight

[novel yew]

Oh yeah

Reainstall a mod after uppatching

Then do what i said above

[abstract badger]

https://cd198883.wixsite.com/customknightskins/post/how-to-install-a-skin-with-custom-knight

[novel yew]

They used CK before

They know how to install skins. Its just that it was in the old ver so the only difference is the menu

[fresh finch]

Yer^.

Lemme try this again...

Seems like its all working except the skins >.> I put them in the folder but then they didnt show in game.. HMM.

[novel yew]

Check you dont have extra foldrrs

[fresh finch]

I put it in directl from my other one.

It should be fine.

[novel yew]

https://cd198883.wixsite.com/customknightskins/blank-page
Check the guide here

[young abyss]

it worked for me

[novel yew]

Maybe it helps

[young abyss]

i just uninstall everything of the old mod loader

[fresh finch]

:(

Oh.

[abstract badger]

There is no need for this

[fresh finch]

Hmmm I think it's fixed.

[young abyss]

it was like 3 things

but thy its working for me now

[fresh finch]

What's the Port usual number again.

[abstract badger]

So if something works for you it doesn’t mean it works for everyone

[abstract badger]

Wdym

[fresh finch]

like the 2556 something somthing

[abstract badger]

For hkmp

[fresh finch]

Yeah.

We have to port forward or no?

[novel yew]

No

You can make a priv server or do the easy

[abstract badger]

26950

https://geroyuni.notion.site/HKMP-Hollow-Knight-Multiplayer-21723018c74c41d3bc555ee9cfaeb743

[novel yew]

Use a public one

[fresh finch]

I see.

Hmmm. We used the hkmp.org thing from that link.

Can't join though.

[abstract badger]

Uninstall hkmp health display or any hkmp addons you have

[fresh finch]

Do I have to exit the game.

[abstract badger]

Yes

[fresh finch]

Kay.

[abstract badger]

Can’t change a tire on a moving car

[fresh finch]

Try me.

lmao.

[abstract badger]

[fresh finch]

My HK doesnt wanna open anymore.

[young abyss]

what u do it works perfectly fine for me :/

[abstract badger]

Just because it doesn’t work for you doesn’t mean it works for them

[fresh finch]

Unenabled the hkmp thing xD

[abstract badger]

[ionic timber]

thx

[novel bronze]

mhm

[urban lodge]

@novel yew Thanks I got it

[red anvil]

strange, the skins aren't working. do mods like hollowpoint affect the skin?

[novel bronze]

yes

hollow point and ck aren't compatible with each other

get rid of one of them

[red anvil]

well fuck

[urban lodge]

Question what do I do after enabling and installing the desired mods?

[novel bronze]

open your game

[urban lodge]

Should it all be loaded into the game files then?

[novel bronze]

yes

[urban lodge]

Ok ill give it a go

Ok can I acess my mods in game? and How

access

[covert valve]

Yes

Options in the pause menu => mods => modname

[urban lodge]

Gotcha Thank you

[wraith crypt]

so appearantly i have issues while trying to upload the Noriaki Kakyoin HK Skin

[urban lodge]

Also how do I get skins for the knight? Is it in scarab?

[wraith crypt]

[covert valve]

Yes name is custom knight

[covert valve]

Boom pins have a solution

[wraith crypt]

[wraith crypt]

its a Skin Mod not a scarab
my game isn't pirated
i tried to verify integrity files and it just replaced all skins files into the normal ones

[novel yew]

What-

I know its custom knight i sent the first message because it has an error

[novel yew]

.

[wraith crypt]

the skin is Kakyoin Noriaki by Blue Gauze

[wraith crypt]

wha

[covert valve]

Do other skins work?

[novel yew]

Do you have extra folders or no?

[wraith crypt]

they do

its just a mod

[wraith crypt]

extra folders??

[novel yew]

Did you read the custom knight guide i sent?

[covert valve]

The mod will is probably for 1.4

[wraith crypt]

i did

[covert valve]

So it can't work

[wraith crypt]

i installed the custom knight by reading it

[covert valve]

Did you install the DLL that came with it?

[novel yew]

Ehm well it says there what a extra folder is

[covert valve]

When one came with it

[wraith crypt]

isn't its just a Custom Text dll?

[covert valve]

Yes its build with code which the mapi loads

So it's a mod

[wraith crypt]

wait

i guess

its working

with the 1.4

[covert valve]

So don't install that dll on 1. 5 and you should be fine

[wraith crypt]

btw

are there any difference between 1.5 and 1.4

like any big one?

[covert valve]

Yes the .net framework is different and the mapi has some changes

[wraith crypt]

what about the story/enemies/dlcs?

[covert valve]

Nothing other than overall game performance and so

[wraith crypt]

now the menu changed + cursor changed

but the knight

its still the same knight and staring at me

[covert valve]

What mods?

[wraith crypt]

Only the noriaki one

[novel yew]

OOOOH

You are using the noriaki MOD

Not the skin

[wraith crypt]

Yeah yeah

[novel yew]

Thats the issue

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/879130708302520321/917331600172285992/Kakyoin_Noriaki_by_Blue_Gauze_TWP.zip

[wraith crypt]

Alr thats what i just installed

The menu style changed and the cursor changed

But the knight 💀

[covert valve]

Yea you need to use ck for the skin

[wraith crypt]

alright

I'll try it when i wake up

Goodnight or Good morning

[covert valve]

Gn

[novel bronze]

so mod installer is completely save right?

yes

we aren't giving out viruses

alright

i just installed the mod installer 2 and it crashed by game

do i need to downpatch?

[novel yew]

Dont use modinstaller

Very outdated

You can use scarab instead

anyone know if theres an enemy rando on scarab?

[novel bronze]

it is not

[smoky owl]

Is there a mod installer for 1.2.2.1?

[novel bronze]

i downpatched my game, why does mod installer API not work?

like the game launched, but nothing loads

[smoky owl]

Scarab is for patch 1.5+

[novel bronze]

i dont want scarab

[smoky owl]

And ModInstaller for 1.4.3.2

[novel bronze]

im on 1.4.3.2

[smoky owl]

If that is your patch then I'm not too sure

[novel bronze]

no mods loaded

i fixed it

wait

my skin change only works for the default knight

[novel yew]

Any reason you are on 1.4?

[valid cloak]

cant you change skins or they dont even show in game?

[novel bronze]

i wanna use mod installer and not scarab

[novel yew]

Why

[novel bronze]

i can see it in the menu it just does not work

[valid cloak]

modinstaller 2 is basically scarab...

[novel bronze]

i just do not want to ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[novel yew]

You can also just use butterfly insted

[valid cloak]

actually u dont need any modinstaller , u know that , right?

[novel bronze]

?

[valid cloak]

u can just manually install everything

[novel yew]

Ots a lot more of trouble not using a installer

And mods tend not to break as much as in a outdated version

On the latest patch

[valid cloak]

do u have the skins folders inside your custom knight folder?

[novel bronze]

yus

i fixed it

[valid cloak]

nice

[white mantle]

Is there a mod for syncing up hkmp (multiplayer) between 2 players, like when I do 2 player, I kill an enemy. But the other person still has to get it. When I get a skill the other person doesn't, and we have separate geo balances

Pls @ me if you know

[novel yew]

The enemy thing is wip, it has passed a lot amd there are like 3 enemies done so dont wait for that
Itemsync can help with the items

[tall lotus]

Hey, I have a question for someone.

[novel yew]

And there is nothing for geo

[novel yew]

Here i am

Whats your question

[tall lotus]

Whenever I load up HK mods, for some reason I one shot every enemy.

[novel yew]

Check with debug your naildamage

[white mantle]

Thank you!

[tall lotus]

Alr thx

[tacit hare]

Hi, for some reason when I open Hollow Knight it opens without the mods, does anyone know why. I had already used the mods before but disactivated them for a while.

[novel yew]

@tacit hare

[tacit hare]

That fixed it thx

[grim turret]

how do i use the custom pantheon mod?

[white mantle]

I can't find that wip mod, can you possibly send a link?

[white mantle]

I think you have to make it in the code

[novel yew]

Wip means work in progress. So it isnt done

[white mantle]

Oh ok

Lmao I'm dumb

So there isn't an enemysync mod thing?

[novel yew]

Exact

[grim turret]

right but where do i go to do that and what code do i need to insert

[novel yew]

Read the readme

[karmic trench]

hey i want to do an enemy randomizer, but i didn't found any for that version do someone have a working randomizer for this version?

[novel yew]

There isnt enemy rando for latest ver

Use beta 1.4 on steam for it

[karmic trench]

is there a way to have like multiple hollow knight games with different versions?

[novel yew]

Yes

[karmic trench]

tell me pls

So the HKMP external server isn't working, try to launch it and it crashes instantly. Allowed it through firewall and also ran it as admin. Tried just using in-game menu as well and it let's us connect but we can't see eachother and it crashes. Not sure what to do

[novel yew]

Are you following the guide?

Also external server?

[mossy smelt]

Don't use the dedicated server unless you need to, follow the pinned guide.

[cedar shadow]

read its readme

[grim turret]

reame isnt doing much for me... i have extremely little coding experience... does that make this very hard?

[valid cloak]

ik, i have 1.4 hk

but cant remember where to download atomic

[cedar shadow]

But I port one because I want to beat it

[valid cloak]

wait, u'll port atomic radiance?

it would be really cool to have ultimatum radiance on 1.5 hk, since a lot of people are scared of playing anyrad, but would like to play a modded radiance

[cedar shadow]

ultimatum radiance?

https://github.com/ygsbzr/hollowknight-ultimatumradiance

if you want a port one,you can get it here

No there is a github for scarab

Not for randomizer

you have scarab right

[blissful plaza]

how do i do the settings on rando4 then?

[novel yew]

Then just get it from scarab and create a file

open helper folder

Does anyone know where the Shade Lord sprites are?

Either one of those

Did you follow the guide? Oh wait a minute

[spring hill]

I mean which file on google drive I've been looking for about 20 minutes and I can't find it

hey my rando4 mod won't work

[novel yew]

Are you trying a new save?

[blissful plaza]

yeah

[spring hill]

I will take another look

[novel yew]

And what exactly doesnt work

[blissful plaza]

it doesn't randomize anything

[novel yew]

Did you activate the randomization

[blissful plaza]

how do you do that? also do you mean via scarab or in the game

[novel yew]

In the game

Create a new file

[blissful plaza]

wdym a new file?

a save file?

[novel yew]

Yes

[blissful plaza]

oh im stupid

i just found it out

[novel yew]

I literally told you three times

Well im happy you solved your problem

@spring hill you still looking for the sprites?

[grim turret]

is there a room name for the bench room that i can put in custom pantheons

[spring hill]

I've already looked at these, I mean that giant creature at the Embrace the Void ending

This one

[novel yew]

Those sprites have that giant creature

[distant wagon]

is there a way to create an IP Address and Port for HKMP or is there already a given one

[novel yew]

Look at the pinned guide

Well no fuck they dissapeared

[cedar shadow]

[valid cloak]

@cedar shadow yeah... so the ddark is really glitchy in dumb radiance... any idea why?

[cedar shadow]

Actually,the original author of dumb radiance didnt remove DivePunishment after platform phase,I think

[valid cloak]

Also every time i die i need to reload the save, since this glitch happens

Other than that, really cool fight

[cedar shadow]

I remember I fix this

I will check it

[valid cloak]

do u know what causes this? even on anyrad it happens sometimes, but its kinda rare

Anyone know how to get debug on 1221?

[sullen copper]

hey so i have all the mods i want but the skins that i put in the file is not showing in the game menu help?

anyone know?

[mossy smelt]

Is the rest of customknight working fine?

[true siren]

yeah

just the hud

i also made sure it was transparent

[valid cloak]

Hey Lumos

[mossy smelt]

Try replacing the hud with one from another skin. If that works, it's your image's problem.

[true siren]

ok

ok i found out its dimensions arent the same as a normal HUD skin

thanks for the help!

[karmic trench]

didn't work for me

[mossy smelt]

Did you make the appid file?

[severe elm]

ty!

[solar crater]

not sure why but my radiance doesnt spawn in this phase

it happened after i tried using custom pantheons

i disabled it, but it is still like that

whats wrong here?

[split solstice]

I am trying to use randomizer 4 mod on scarab, but the option is not showing up on the mods section, what should I do?

[native ice]

Does it show up in the top left of the main menu?

[split solstice]

yes, it does but not in the settings.

[native ice]

Not every mod has a mod menu page, just start a new save

[split solstice]

okay, I'll try that out.

[native ice]

What mods do you have installed?

That wasn't for you.

[solar crater]

sorry there is a lot

aside from the radiance not spawning, something also goes wrong with hornet's needle throw attack

[native ice]

What kind of "something"

[solar crater]

let me try to record it

she also drops in really late

here

sry wait

[solar crater]

see its been a while in the recording

but hornet hasnt dropped into the arena yet

i havent been able to record the needle thing yet

[native ice]

Can you check if this happens in a new save?

[solar crater]

okay

[solar crater]

it happens in another save

[native ice]

Do this to remove mods, then check if it works

[solar crater]

ima try

[solar crater]

i didnt open the game yet, but after it finished i see this

[native ice]

That's normal

[solar crater]

alr

okay so

hornet works now

and the mods are gone

[native ice]

^

That was the point

Does absrad work?

[solar crater]

yes

[solar crater]

i cant have the same mods as before and have hornet/absrad working anymore?

[native ice]

It's possible there's a conflict between mods. Go back to scarab and install/reinstall any mod to readd all of them.

[solar crater]

okay

thanks btw

[solar crater]

well actually this only happened yesterday for me when i put both the radiance and hornet in the custom pantheon mod. things went wrong for both of them there

i disabled it, but it still happened

maybe ill just not use custom pantheon

[torn kraken]

[leaden beacon]

To all the people that made the pins, the channel, the mods, the skins (Scarab, CustomKnight), etc
Thank you! I was able to mod in some skins without a hitch despite having never modded HK before. The Sapphire Skin is especially beautiful, though I'm biased because it uses my favorite shade of blue

[mortal ingot]

Everytime i try to open mod installer, it tells me it couldnt locate the installation folder. plz help im sad from tryna figure it out

[leaden beacon]

if you're opening modinstaller (and not scarab, which is a better and more up to date mod installer)

then use the file path you get when you browse hollow knight files via steam

[rough cloak]

Yo , can anyone tell me how to install room and item randomizers mod in hk ?

the sole reason i joined hk discord is to ask this question 😅

[leaden beacon]

i just got custom knight together and working so idk there else id help

did you check the pins?

it might be there already

[rough cloak]

i checked the pins

what is scarab ?

[warm roost]

The current mod installer

[rough cloak]

so if i install scarab then all the mods will be automatically installed ?

[leaden beacon]

no, its just the latest version of the mod installer

youcan pick which mods you want to install, though

check the pinned

this is what it all looks like when you open it.

my version is 1.4.3.2 , will that affect anything

Quick question I have just downloaded the togglable bindings mod on scarab and I am wondering how to activate it as it isn't in the normal mods menu in options

[thin drum]

how do i install skins with modloader2

[mortal ingot]

tysm! I got it working (installed scarab instead) and am currently downloading mods!

[leaden beacon]

np! glad to help

[leaden beacon]

install Custom Knight

one of the skinning mods you can use

[thin drum]

Help me

[leaden beacon]

i dont speak that language very well, but with what i know from spanish and from IT, that program might have installed wrong?
Are you using the right program for your OS?

update: used google translate. yeah it looks like a bad installation. 0x usually means its referencing memory or storage of some kind. Errors here are usually corruptions during use or installation, or in rare cases, externally caused by hardware damage.

[thin drum]

so what should i do? to be able to use modloader 2

[leaden beacon]

well first of all,
are you running a 32 bit or a 64 bit computer?
are you on windows, mac or linux?
if you're running a 64 bit computer, just use Scarab. Its a better application and runs for the latest version of hollow knight

can you walk me through how you went about installing it?

[thin drum]

I have 64 bits and windows

[thin drum]

Well, I went up to a message that says modinstaller 2 the installation links for linux windows and mac then I downloaded it and ran it, it asked me for the path of the hollow knight I put it then I ran the application and then installed HPbar and custom knight then I put the grimmknight skin and when i run the game i get an error

[leaden beacon]

wait, you didnt move the main games .exe, correct?

[thin drum]

mhh idk

[leaden beacon]

like, when you open up hollow knights file path, this is what you see, correct?

[thin drum]

I don't know English and I use google translator

[thin drum]

yes

[leaden beacon]

ill use more google translate friendly language then, okay

[thin drum]

I have the non-steam game

[leaden beacon]

here, try downloading scarab and see if it may have just been an install issue

https://github.com/fifty-six/Scarab/releases/download/v1.11.0.0/windows.zip

this is the download link i used

[thin drum]

ok

[leaden beacon]

unzip the .zip file and run the executable. when it prompts for the file path put the file path for your .exe

[thin drum]

And how do I uninstall the modinstaler2 so that it doesn't keep giving me an error?

[leaden beacon]

that one i am not sure. I just figured out adding skins today as well.

[thin drum]

the file path is this?

[thin drum]

oh ok , don't worry

I discovered that you could put mods on the hollow knight

[leaden beacon]

im thinking that hollow knight being a non-steam game might interfere with modding, but from what i understand it shouldn't mess with it

what version is your hollow knight game?

is it 1.5?

[thin drum]

ok I already opened scarab and I already had the route set

How do I see what version I have?

[leaden beacon]

its normally on the main menu of the game. if you had the steam version you could see it in the properties menu, too

though i suppose seeing the main menu is difficult when the game wont run..lol

worst case scenario, you back up your save files and do a fresh reinstall of the game

[thin drum]

The problem is that the game does not open for me due to the error

[thin drum]

if i was going to do that, save my only game and install the game again

well i will install custom knight and enemybarhp let's see if it is solved if i don't have to reinstall the game again

[leaden beacon]

it is an option. i am not familiar enough with modloader to know all the issues it could cause, but if it is an issue with the main exe file you may have to reinstall.
If you had it on steam I would suggest a verification instead, which can repair your game without a reinstall

but if you have the latest possible version of hollow knight it should be 1.5.78

[thin drum]

ok I'll see what I do and if I don't solve it I'll reinstall it again, do you know where I can find the latest version of hollow knight? not steam

[leaden beacon]

to be honest i dont know where else it sells

let me look?

[ocean minnow]

has anyone experiencec this issue before?

[leaden beacon]

nope.

[deft flame]

damn bro you really the giga hollow knight chad for tryna help this mans so much

[leaden beacon]

ey ive been in a position like his before and nobody was able to help me

least i can do is get his game running again

[thin drum]
