Is the Lightbringer mod not supported by Scarab?
Its not "not supported", its just not on scarab. But you can manually install it
Anyone know if there's a mod on Scarab that lets you map out rando's?
...The official link's most recent update is 1.2.2.1
Randomizer map mod
Idk if it'll work on the current version, will it if I manually install?
Thanks
What? There isnt a bringer for 1.2
Thanks for the helpful link!
There is also a guide here on how to manually install mods, if you need it
[ #archived-modding-help message ]
So once Lightbringer folder's in the Mods folder, I can just start the game and it'll work?
Or do I need to find and manually activate/toggle it somewhere in Scarab

k , thank you
How do I get a manually installed mod to work once it's in the Managed > Mods folder?
None of the mod's files have a ".dll" part, should I rename the mod to include it?
.dll is a file type
It works now! Thank you so much
That’s the source code
You can’t use that unless you have the tools devs use to make mods
Oh
What you want is a dll file
Did I install the wrong thing/need to get a specific file in the folder?
Out of this three
I installed it from here:
https://github.com/TheodoreChristianRadu/HollowKnight.Lightbringer
Wich one do you think is it?
Lightbringer.zip
Well there it is
Now just get it
And it should have a dll inside
Wich is the thing that you are looking for
I can't seem to find the Lightbringer.zip file on the website...
Found it!
Thank you for helping my dumb back end through this!
Finally found the .dll file, where do I put it now?
Im trying to download mods with scarab but it says an exception happened when it was downloading the mod

Yeah, it’s gotta replace files in the game which doesn’t work if it’s already open

I already found the hollow knight now I can play with mods
Thanks 
me and some others are trying to do a MW on archipelago, we are having trouble activating map mod s, nothing seems to show up on pause when we press ctrl+m
I might have misunderstood, but I thought I saw while looking over a conversation over it during it's development that there was a separate map mod? I'm not quite sure but it might be worth a look
OK that does explain a map mod I came across that had very limited features but was linked from the archipelago side, perhaps that's all that is working for now with it
How i connect to HKMP

screams in lowercase
do mods stay in its own save or do they stay the same in all saves
i instaled custam knight but i only have one skin how do i get more
you install more
in the settings of customknight you can find a open skins folder button, put extracted skin folders from the google drive in the pinned messages there
they exist in every save if they're enabled, but may intentionally function differently

no I think someone is
🤔
No, somewhere is
could I speak to this "Somewhere"
Nah
aight im going back to developing fsmview c# conversion

I keep forgetting that fsm variables aren't just variables but can be constants and it keeps making me rewrite things
currently I'm going in reverse alphabetical order of actions
with this info there's a total of 5 modes for the x y and z coordinates of fsm actions that use both x y and z fsm floats and a fsm vector 3 (also 2d equivalents):
Default value (usually 0); vector isn't set and the fsm float for that axis isn't set either
Use vector reference; vector is a variable and fsm float is not set
Use vector constant; vector is a constant and fsm float is not set
Use float reference; vector is whatever and fsm float is a reference
Use float constant; vector is whatever and fsm float is a constant
this would all be fine if c# revolved around these fsm variables, but it doesn't, fsm variables revolve around c#, so I need to make a lot of logic to write the correct code
basically a simple 32 line method becomes > 117 lines long
is there a way to see other peoples mods in hkmp like custom knight
tried the radiant link in #modding-discussion pins

Hi, I'm coming back to the game after a little while and just looking at a lot of this modding stuff, looking to install benchwarp and customknight again (which are both enabled on scarab). I also just followed this step as I also couldn't see my mod options in game, but it still seems the same after doing so, I can't find them anywhere. I can't see any api stuff for mods on my title screen, but I'm not 100% sure whether that's supposed to not be there or not
I did initially install scarab with 1.4.3.2 version but have updated it since, not sure whether this could be an issue or not though'
Check the pinned messages for more information - https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/187137504393035776/823796522751623168/unknown.png
I've now tried that any nothing seems any different
actually hang on let me try it again
yeah no nothing has changed, still the same
Whenever I try to launch HK, it starts loading the mods and once the bar is full it crashes.
I have the current version of scarab with these mods enabled: AdditionalMaps, Benchwarp, BenchWarpFix, DebugMod, Discord Rich Presence, Hat, HollowPoint, MoreSaves, QoL, Satchel, SFCore, and Vasi.
The mods I have installed not previously listed are: CompassAlwaysOn, ConnectionMetadataInjector, Custom Knight, CustomPoolInjector, ItemChanger, MenuChanger, Randomizer 4, Randomizer Map S, RandomizerCore, and Vanilla Map Mod.

did the game create a crash log by any chance
I don't see a file for that, and there was no popup
you can just drag and drop the modlogs file here
no
ty
is there a controller connected even if you arent using it
no
only connections are keyboard, mouse, headphones, webcam, and mic
and pc connected to monitor
this is gonna be monotonous troubleshooting, but
disable all mods, run the game, see if that works, then close the game, enable each mod 1 by 1, launching the game each time to see if there is a problem mod
disable
k
IT LAUNCHED!
alright lemme do that
alright, the problem mod was satchel
thank you, everyone who helped
What mod makes the bench next to the guy who sells strength just a normal bench?
Some mods depend on satchel so I would uninstall and reinstall it
alright, thank you
i did, but the problem returned
satchel still crashes my game
For now I guess try to play mods that don't require it.
alright
if it's not too much of a problem, what's the difference between having these options on and off? from what I see, it says "if you turn off isma tear, you will just get another item that's not the tear, but works the same way"
or am I missing something?
custom knight is not appearing the mods option in-game for me. I'm using scarab. How do I fix this?
just to make sure, do you also have Satchel installed?
it's a dependency
installed and enabled, of course
yes
Is there a link for modinstaller2
if so i need it
.
- Close your game and Scarab
- Run both of these
- Then open Scarab as Administrator and reinstall your mods
- Then open your game
Windows scripts to reset things:

- Download the file
- Move the file to your Desktop
- Double-Click the file*

Close your game, then run the Global Setting script above, then open your game again
ok
can i get the link for modinstaller 2
The replaced skill doesn't let you Swim (as an example), but you no longer take damage from jumping in water, you just hazard respawn
which version of mod installer should I use for 1.5.68.11808?
Why? There's not really a reason to use it anymore. Current modding is done using Scarab (and in the future there will probably be other installer options)
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, the official GoG version, and the official Microsoft Store 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.
You should purchase the game in order to mod it 👍
i meant like, just any thats relevant,but scarab will do, i dont got the link

ah, I see... weirdly enough, I did check the item spoiler log, and that option didn't even do anything. like, Lantern, Swim and Tear were all still achievable
is this the right one
I tried to run it and it my pc's defense systems stopped it and it isn't letting me run it...
As long as you moved it to the desktop, you should have the option to More Info > Run Anyway
Oh ok
I'm not sure under what category it would fall, but I'd like to note that while purchasing with Humble Bundle, I received not just the Steam code, but also a "raw" game, like without any launcher for it, just the game itself, not attached to steam, gog, or any other platform.
In fairness, it did come with the steam code, but it seems like it's not piracy in that case, I'd be inclined to believe...
well, it doesn't have to be piracy, anyways
It now has a text thing in the menu to the left of the screen that says "Looking for Custom Kinght? Check the mods menu under options." But when I go into the mods in options, I don't see a thing for custom knight.
try scrolling down in the mods menu
sometimes it's beyond your view
it only has two mods in the the mods section, DebugMod and QoL
nothing other than that
Yeah it isnt letting me open it for some reason
are you getting a windows defender thing
I'm not 100% sure about it, but I think my first Custom Knight setups had to be done in-game, not in the main menu. In the time more experienced folks get to answer, you might as well try that
i tried it both in the menu and in-game
are your folders structured properly
wdym
It says the developer isnt verified so it isnt letting me properly run scarab
is this supposed to happen
Yep
(ignore the disabled part, pretend it's in the mods folder)
it should look like this
Yep
show me
Yes
Maybe it’s something to do with the Swap folder?
Mine just has an empty text file called replace.txt
no the swapper has nothing to do with this
Ok
Go on
in ONE save file, the soul meter is always gray (as if i can’t cast or focus) and i can’t focus, but i can use spells
it only stops being gray when it hits full soul
?pins look for hollow point fix

Follow the guide there if you need help ask someone else it’s 2 am for me here bye
Someone's recreating TWP's Sekiro skin (Thunder Wolf) https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1lTqo2fU6GCaETaPVtDgwh505BP2309sz
my controller wont connect is that due t mods
just usb
i don’t use ps4 so i’m not rly sure
but maybe try just plugging the cord in first, then plugging the controller on
didnt work
its the revoloution one i found out
How do I download mods through scarab
Well, you download scarab from the pins, then you extract it, open it, and you can just download the mods from there
Regarding your controller issues : make sure to NOT use DS4Windows as for some reason it just breaks everything, you may need to plug/unplug your controller before/after you launch the game
I’ve sorted my controller. But in scarab it is just faded and the buttons don’t work
Here, I think your issue is the first one right ?
Or it might be the second if you are on mac
Ok
@merry pier I just installed it but now it’s telling me that I can’t open it and now it won’t open
Does scarab require 1.5?
Yes…
As it is written everywhere
And before you ask it only works on legal copies from steam or GoG
nucleus coop will only open one instance of HK
I’m sorry but I have no idea what you are talking about, what is nucleus coop ?
a thing that SHOULD open 2 instances of a game
for splitscreen
How do I update it to 1.5 I’ve never done this before. Also it is from gog
But I used a steam key
whats the mod called with the knight skins?
how do gettem

k thanks
Is that for me about changing verison?
Do you not know how to update your game ?
whenever I try to run scarab on Windows it stops me what am I doing wrong?
No
I download the windows.zip but I can't run it
What is your patch/what is your OS/where does your game come from ?
@gilded widget follow this guide
@merry pier I updated it but now the mods don’t work
Then get scarab from the pins and install a mod
If I downloaded skids in a previous update and reupdated it the mods go?
Mods don’t transfer skins can though
What version of the game are you using?
Is it from steam or Xbox?
my custom knight mod wont show in the menu
Open the mod folder from the menu
Close the game
Check if the skin is in the right file
Open the game again
Should show up
1.5 steam
k
So my game keeps crashing now, imma unistall/reinstall maybe I'll try to later
@gilded widget
Im too stupid to find the hollow knight folder
Go to scarab
Go to steam right click hk
Local files
Browse local files
Open folder button in bottom left

thanks a bunch
Make sure your on patch 1.5
is custom skins still the same like edited through the game files or is it done with mods now?
how do i check that?
Custom is the same
Hollow knight is working again, I try modding again later
Every mod is on 1.5 except for enemy rando pale champ and indie crossover
if 1.5 is the latest ver then yes i have it
Yeah
Now to beat Markoth ascended
do skin installations work on 1.5?
what folder do the knight skins have to go in
Yup
Skins in custom knight
wheres custom knight?
🔺This guide includes installing a skin on custom for patches 1.5.78 & 1.4.3.2 For issue/glitches you run in to consult this guide: https://cd198883.wixsite.com/customknightskins/blank-page For Additional Questions Consult this FAQ: [To be made] ⚙️For patch 1.5.78⚙️ 🔹If you haven’t already, download Scarab the Mod installer for 1.5 -Link: https:/...
can anyone help me?
Elaborate
basically im using nucleus coop (an app that opens two instances of a game) to play splitscreen HK
but only 1 instance is spawned
Are you following the guide
yes
again, only one spawns so even if i do host, who's going to connect
also it spawns at the wrong location on the screen
everything seems normal, ye?
it then beeps twice spawning this weirdly sized game in the middle of the screen
it seems as if it's trying to open another one but can't
The guide shows what it should look like. Seems you are missing a box next to the keyboard and controller
that's because they have 2 monitors
i only have one (for splitscreen, obviously, why else would i use this)
any good shaders for hk 1.5?
Shaders?
yea like sweet fx and stuff
there's... reshade??? i guess????
There arent shaders for the game
has anyone made a raytracing hk shader in the 2 ish years ive been gone?
can't you literally just use reshade?
whats this then xd
A mod from a unsuported place that may or may not break your game
people obviously make their own thats why im asking if anyone knows of newly released ones
Nexus mods don't work
There isnt
again, just use reshade lol.
^^^^^^
There is none. And cosidering the only one existing is on nexus mods
There is none newly or older
my custom knight isnt showing in the menu even tho I did all the stuff
No menu in options > mods?
????
I thought that was patched
with scarab to add a mod that isnt on the installer do i just add it ot the mods folder manually
No
what rendering backend does HK use?
direct X 11/12, open GL or vulkan
lets just guess its opengl then
But i suggest you not to use that mod
my files look like this
Because again ^^^
and custom knight is activated
wow this looks really bad with HDR on
again, im VERY VERY sure you can literally just use reshade for several shaders
that can be toggled on and off at will easily
1.5.78.11833 is this the latest game ver?
Yes
sweet just cos the manual mod is that ver so its compatible
wdym by mod menu
This is modding-help
oh i know i just don't know why they aren't taking my advice lol
since im pretty sure reshade is likely the most accessible option
also my question still hasnt been answered so im still waiting
Ok so can you explain then whats your problem? Because sounds like its what you said here
so
Again, I recommend not downloading mods from nexus.
when I go into a HK save my custom knight mod just doesnt show up in the menu neither when I pause or open debug menu
Where are you looking for that menu
Just in the first pause screen
Or inside options > mods
Did you add the skin while the game was open?
Also the problem is because you put the skin inside the default folder
what is an enemy randomizer called for scarab?
so like the name for an enemy rando
No ennemi rando only works on 1.4 sadly
Hello
Hello
Hi
I have got a small problem
What is it
You’re missing dependencies
Mods required for other mods to work
Yes
Iirc in this case you’re missing stuff for randomizer
Like what
What version of hollow knight are you on
1.5
I’m not too keen on 1.5 rando, Ismoli can prob tell ya
Anyways just go to scarab
And?
I see
Mods messing with us????
What mods i could be missing
Satchel, vasi, magic ui, randomizer core, item changer, menu changer
Are some of the dependencies i remember right now
Wait
There are more probably
You sure magic ui is required for rando?
You can click on your mods description. It says the dependencies there
🤦♂️ why didn’t I think of that
Im pretty sure is used for rando....
i dont remember wich one tho
If it isnt late
Could you send your modlog?
Where is this

is there a link to find all skins?
Here
Oh thanks
Very helpful ❤️
Well, go on
I absolutely cannot help you with so little information about your problem, à Spanish speaker might come in chat to help you but I can’t do much
if i use translater you understand me?
where'd you buy the game? what operating system are you on?
i'm in windows 10
and the first question?
unfortunately I cracked the game due to lack of money
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, the official GoG version, and the official Microsoft Store 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 had already installed several mods but suddenly it didn't open the scaab anymore
scarab*
um
hi can someone tell me how to disable the modding api in the scarab modinstaller, when i press the disable modding api button it doesnt get disabled
verify file integrity
whats that
how do I do that
right click steam, properties, local files, verify file integrity
right click the game on steam i mean
oh ok i will try
if it says something like "1 file repaired" or something, you know it worked
you'll be back on vanilla when that happens
okay
its validating
um what does this mean
It worked
it means they failed to validate and will be reacquired
Anyone know how to fix this
You’re missing a mod required for it to work
You can check the mods required by clicking it’s description in scarab
and make sure none have "out of date" by them in scarab
kk
if that doesn't work, delete all global settings files where your saves are
why dont my scarab mods work
Why dont you explain is a better question
For all we know you’re trying to mod hk on a switch 
LOL
what ever
Is that the end of this conversation or?
you didnt really help
You didnt really explain
I was giving an example of why Ismoil asked that
Well again, refer to my message
Well, « not working » is really really vague
Please explain your problem
People cannot help you if they do not know what is going on.
Helpful information includes:
- A detailed explanation of the problem that you're having
- What you've tried so far
- What Operating system you're on
- Where you got the game from
Ok so
did you try this
yes
What version of the game are you on?
Where did you got the game from?
What installer are you using?
Can you screenshot scarab?
Is a controller connected when you’re launching the game?
Click open mods
oke
What is in there
no other folders?
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\mods
Now go to steam, right click hk, click properties, click local files, click browse
Check that path too
You said mods arent there on mods folder right
.
Yes there is mods folder. There are more folders inside there?
for the mods
Also if scarab opened that path it means its correct
I’ve seen it be incorrect multiple times
Btw if your nickname doesn’t lie, you’ll be pleased with one of my next mods
cool
A couple weeks ago but hkmp was bug
YES

nice

Was intended for a stream with rusty and the other fyremoth devs but again, hkmp bug
Aha idc hand it over

I hate that autocorrect corrects and to abs from abs rad
Code is on github, broke it in my hkmp induced insanity tho
Ping me at least 5 time when its officially ouy
Maybe
?
Anyways should we actually fix ok, boomer#6050’s problem?
got my mods working

Perfect timing

i just deleted everything from mods folder and reinstalled
that works ig
api missing. ezpz
Juwt what i was gonna say just that no need to delete all
Maybe the game was opened when stuff was first installed?
nah
File access error?
dunno what it was but it works
Nice
most common is using scarab, then changing patches after
better use bfly smh
If you want me to do that, I require more snailing you
message wich only someone can snail
❤️
scarab not checking the mods folder and updating the list on what's active or not has also caused too many headaches
Yeah
I hope butterfly is like mi1
I think italy said butterfly will check if mods are there or not
butterfly does look pretty clean
Dwarf!
