what is the path for the readme.md file and what changes need to be made in there?
please advise
i did the test to verify integrity of all files and 2 had to be re-acqurired. still unable to heal in game
i have re-installed scarab mod, it's not in the progs files folder under steam, does it need to be.
where should the mod's folderbe
*be
i dont have a custom mod folder
Hollow point rewrites your save so doing this wont help
Hollow point changes the healing mechanic so you heal another way
Read the pinned messages for a solution on how to heal after deleting hollow point
Which pinned message link
Thw one that mentions hollow point
?
did you install customknight with scarab yet
no
how do you manually edit the save files to fix the problem
by following the pin's instructions
which instructions
all it says is
due to some code changes left over modifications stay on the save file and I dont have the time anymore to fix it in the near future. This is mostly related to the focusing cost so please, please, please backup your saves first before installing it in an existing save so you wont end up needing to modifying your save just to fix it. If you have the focus bug on your save file with the mod uninstalled, you'll need to manually edit your save file to the default values.
.
It doesnt even say that
thanks
There was a link to all the mods and readmes and I clicked it, then I found HollowPoint and clicked on it and scrolled to the readmes and this is what I saw
Ok, thats not what we told you to do tho
whenever i load up my game this is all i see
No for mods in general
how do i use the multiplayer mod
@idle gale
There are no links that just mention HollowPoint
Can someone please help
Everytime i try to download a mod installer like scarab or radiance or modinstaller
It tells me invalid hollow knight path and i dont know what to do
Hum, where did you get your game ?
Cracked it
Well to bad, you wonāt find help on the official server of the game with the devs. Gotta buy it
It's on scarab
I found the readme and I have one quick question, Does deleting HK remove all your progress
No
But deleting it wont fix your healing problem
i have a healing problem when i use hollow point
i cant
heal
i checked the read me
Hollow point changes healing mechanics,
If you completely read the readme you should know that

a lot of "I did the required reading" energy
gets asked main character's name
freezes up
LMAO TRUE

pale king?
Its called mario
No mayro
i love mayo

No me
yes
No
Someone write all this down
No

Verifying + reinstalling scarab (by manually deleteting modfolder and changing install directory?) didn't fix the "can't interact with bench" thingy :/
Do you have hkmp tag?
Or vasi
i want to download the hollow knight randomizer, what is the first step i have to take?
Download scarab
Or Ismoilcore
Start the game
that isnt public yet
thank you
ismoilcore?
It better never be we donāt need any more dependencies especially another core lmao
am i missing something here
Is a joke
:knightnod:
Now im "the guy"
Ismoil you are going to have to be replaced

where do i extract the scarab folder, in my hollow knight folder?
I can't seem to find the mod installer 2 in pinned messages. can someone show it to me?
it says: After Downloading the .zip file extract/unzip it & move the extracted folder to your desktop folder to avoid potential issues.
but idk exactly what they mean by this š¦
Note: I'm dumb
Any reason to get it ? Scarab is the newer installer and works best
Well, desktop, that like, a name of a folder, the one with a little screen as an icone
Im trying to get custom knight and Idk where else it is

do i just put it there or is it better to put a folder there?
ok thanks
the next step is to run Scarab(.exe) but i don't see that one
or is the scarab one the same?
nvm it is
Sorry for the trouble but last question. Can I now just download on scarab.exe what I want and it just works when i enable it?
I will make it more detailed ā
Just clicking on the boxes should do the trick
Okay thank you but It's probably clear enough i'm just stupid that's all
okay tysm
I have scarab but in a 7-ZIP file and I don't really know how to access it
Um i just plugged my coltroller in my pc and my hollow knight menu just started going crazy is it because of the mod?
I don't really know if this is a stupid question or not but what beta (or not beta) should I run Scarab on? I have re patched hollow knight about 6 times and none have worked. (Sorry if I am interrupting something)
You should just use the last patch 1.5
Well you unzip it
k thanks, I'll see if it works this time
did anyone else have this issue?
idk if that's something that's just happening because of the controllers
because I also have a controller plugged in but it just refuses to run the mods what so ever, not even the loading screen
Did you install a mod after being on 1.5?
i dont really remember, ill try to just re install the mods

Okay so my Custom Knight skins aren't really loading and it's just white squares, how would I be able to fix that?
Get out of the game and enter again
Yep, thanks
Im running the public beta and the newest version of Scarab, but when I load Hollow Knight mods dont load
Wich public beta, you arent supposed to be on a beta
is there any way to play the mirrored hallownest mod without the left and right controls also being inverted? exploring a flipped hallownest sounds really cool to me but the flipped controls are hurting my brain lol
some emulators let you invert controller joysticks, but i didn't see anything like that on steam's controller settings.
After i installed hollow point i have some problems with the spells they sometimes disappear or appear even if I didnt took them
that ability is in the base game
you can see if debug has it
that ability is in the game by default at the black egg temple, you dont need to complete the game to get it
can someone help i tried to download a custom skin mod for the first time and now i have purple squares all over my game and its in a different langauage
what mods did you install
wdym
What mods do you have
Just take a screenshot of the enabled tab in scarab and send it here
Set to none
alright
this folder is also still zipped. you have to extract it
Oh btw, the reason why itās all weird is cause you have Art Mod enabled

can i just screen share and one of yāall help i feel like ima mess something up
no
pins have tons of info
albeit a bit all over the place but it gets the job done
i got it to work thanks guys
is the completion rate normally "NaN%" on randomizer item sync?
What do you mean by completion rate
the one that you get before THK fight, idk how to explain very well
it also shows in the saves aswell the percentage
Is it showing NaN in the bottom left of your inventory
on bottom right
I mean it doesnāt really matter since you can view it after beating the game do have an mods that might do that it may be an itemsync thing since the game probably is able to properly calculate percentage when others give you items
thx
hey so i played the god soul mod and after beating it finally i then disabled it. however the enemy's were still duplicated. i then uninstalled it but still having the problem.
never mind i fixed it. i went into my game files and deleted it instead of uninstalling it through scarab. sorry to bother you
i just got my internet connection back and custom knight does not work with me i tried to select a skin but it doesn't show it , i tried to uninstalling and reinstalling the game and the mod but it didn't work
Custom Knight troubleshooting
Please post a screenshot that shows:
- Where you installed the skin
- With the directory bar visible
- With the skin images themselves visible

Scarab opens,doesn't show anything and then closes itself
Is scarab extracted
Yes
Woth the other 3 files it needs on the same folder
i'm also on mac not windows
It's extracted and all files are on the same folder
And the folder scarab is on needs to be on desktop
Oh wait i think that might be the problem
its on the desktop
Eh i was talking to unow

i opened scarab and uninstalled the mod and reinstall it and i put the skins folders in the new one
it didn't work
You knida ignored this smh
You probably have an extra folder
thet is the problem the old folder i can't find it
What
the old folder for custom knight that we put the skins in it it is lost in my mac and i can't find it
Its on your mods folder
it does not show me
let me check again
Wait the replace.txt it is empty
It shouldnāt be right
It doesnt matter
Then why when I choose the skin it Does not change anything in the night?
Should I uninstall and reinstall the mode again ?
Because you probably have an extra folder
Could you please check this
Nvrm it started doing it again
I ahave a question i have an instance of two hollow knight files how do i fix this
Wdym??

Nvm ill come back in a min i think i got it

It worked,thanks

Ok but this is the Best I understood from the instruction up there
I donāt think itās enough is it ?
Ok and that exact folder is inside mods folder. Right?
Right
Every time I want to open this folder I have to go to hollow knight open the game and then go to the modes and open the folder in the custom knight mod
Sorry if I'm interrupting
but I have everything set up, but can't figure out how to install a custom skin
I have the custom skin folder in the skins folder
but it doesn't show up in the game
it's extracted and everything, too

ah, thank you!
Would anyone know how to get ItemSync working or help me debug? I'm getting a different starting page than my friends, where I'm getting "Start Game" my friends are getting "proceed" where everyone is then in a lobby for starting the randomizer.
Uh, I followed the instructions and it didn't work
What didnt work. Does the skin stay at default
Do you have multiworld lib?
Have you tried reinstall itemsync
Well, the only two options are default and swapperdemo
nothing else even shows up
Did you add the skin while the game was open?
Yeah you cant change a plane wings while its flying lol
The analogy evolved

thank you!!!!
havent they added a reload button now?
I'm not seeing it in the top corner but it says it's installed and enabled in Scarab
Ok thatās normal. Reinstall itemsync
Tends to break sometimes
The button that says fix/reload breaks your skins
it works for me...
Run this .bat and then try again https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/462200562620825600/889031834938265610/Global_Settings_Clear.bat

Still no luck....
When you hit start game does it just start the game?
Yeah
hmm
Do you have rando core
Thanks for being smart and knowing how to find modlog lmao
Literally smartest person that isnt a helper on here

I've had enough trouble that I know it's a place to start
what the fudge is up with my randocore not working like ever
Ismoil have you learned how to find your modlog lmao
Yes lol
Is it installed?
But have you learned how to read it 
it was but wasn't loading in the modlog. trying again... this is the second time Scarab has said RandoCore is there when it's actually not....
Run this to make scarab less confused
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/462200562620825600/842427721065955348/ModInstaller_Reset.bat
I guess verify game integrity to reset stuff and try again thatās my last idea
with the skill upgrades mod, how do you unlock the upgrades?
RandomizerCore is here!!!! it's still not showing up in the ModLog!!!
You have them when start
Ye
You can use rando tho and get them randomized
I had that happen a rando or two ago. it's strange
Uh you should probably delete every below the folder named vasi they may cause an issue as those are probably all 1.4 mods
the folder being there does not mean that the dll is in the folder
i checked. it was
Yeah then delete those dlls and zips
if it's in a sub folder, it's disabled
Do you have tag installed
tag?
I removed it in case it was causing problems so deleting that didn't help
Is your itemsync inside a sub folder in you itemsync folder
Nope, it's just under ItemSync
does anyone know if pale court is working on scarab
Yeah download Pail curt
What mods do you have
Enjoy š
QOL, more saves, item charger, randomizer, skill upgrade, enemy hp, custom knight, compass always on, and companion cloth
Get vasi, satchel, rando core, item changer and menu changer
Mickley 
All of those are already on
best mod
Ikr
yes, they are
did you check
YES! But I'll check again!
Well I know it is
cuz I can talk to elderbug
but I can't bench or anything
screenshot your title screen
and have you tried deleting your settings files
clear your settings with the bat. and get rid of benchwarp fix
how do i get charms for mods like transendance without individually finding them all. someone told me to spoiler log but idk how to do that.
Someone made a guide with the locations
oh ok
found it thanks
In rando 4 should I be able to see the player in the lobby?
No, thats itemsync stuff
If you talking about what im thinking of
Theres nothing else like it tho
Basically I'm trying to do a rando with a friend and I have been able to join his HKMP but we can't see each other
I'm using all the mods Fireborn is using in his live and when I start the game is in slow motion and sometimes switches back to normal, after a couple restarts it just appears a black screen every time I load a new save
Not everyone sees fireborn, can you say wich mods?
Randomizer4, Randomizer Map S, RandoStats, HKTracker, RecentItemsDisplay, DebugMod, Benchwarp, QoL, Transtrans, CompassAlwaysOn, Transcendence, SkillUpgrades, AdditionalMaps, EnemyHPBar, CustomKnight
i have all of these except for additional maps on
Did you bind game speed to a keybind

perhaps by accident
ill check that
Had it set to d, so everytime i moved right it was slowing it down, Thank you Appreciate it š
Does anybody know if that last blank space in the transcendence mod is supposed to be for something?
As far as i know i got all the charms
Does anyone know how to get the Washer Knights mod?
I got the washer knights mod, put it in the mods folder, but it didn't show up in scarab
.... I should do that
Yeah uh thatās how mods work on scarab
You canāt put the raw dll in the mods folder
It needs to be in another folder
it's still not there
Screenshots would help
Hmm
uhh
it actually says it's on
in the game
so
huh
maybe
idk
I guess I'll see!
idk i dont have it either
I swe
error
i keep getting errors opening up my game
do i have to launch the game through steam instead of directly opening up the exe?
the latest version of hollow knight and the latest version of scarab
v1.5.78.11833 for hollow knight, right?
Hmmm yes
Verify file integrity then reinstall a mod
Go to steam > right click HK > properties > local files > verify game integrity
Is there a way to see other people's skins on multiplayer?
thanks
someone pls give modding api link download
pls
will help a lot
i can't find it
there is enemy randomizer in scarab? i can't find it
pls help

thanks a lot
Anyone know where to get Hollow knight skins for enemies and Health bars?
Ive seen one where the health is shown as masks and enemy ones like washer knights
My Modinstaller2 isn't injecting properly into my drive, I'm not sure why.

then i turn off
i can't heal normally anymore
is there a way to fix this?

Dumb question, does Scarab work for the game pass version?
My gf wants to get into the rando at some point but she only has the game pass pc version
yes it does but you have to do some extra stuff
Hollow Knight mods on the Xbox Gamepass (for PC) I just found out about this so I canāt really give a very detailed guide on how to do this but Iāll 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...
Could someone help add horribly translated text in the game?
Im on the files in drive
does anyone know when scarab will add the enemy-randomizer mod? i tried to install the old mod installer but it doesn't seem to recognize the installation path since i think it recognize only the outdated version of the game.
Scarab will add it when the new version is done, by now you can use the direct port for 1.5
This is outdated. A new guide can be found here
#archived-modding-help message
Does the drive of have txt files that replace text because that mod is for 1.4
@novel yew thanks!

Ismoil the most recent rando on 1.4 is rando 3 not 3.5, 3.5 is for 1.5
š
Do the Transcendence and Skill Upgrades mods cause lag? Cause my game started running at 3fps after I added them
Well, not really
On low end devices the game can lag of course
But if you have a great pc mods should nāt cause too much issue
You can still reboot your game/pc a few times
hey where can i find the mod logs?
?saves save files not game files

ty mate
hey um
?
so im trynna play with transcendance but it doesnt load properly
Do you have all the dependencies?
yep
Also it only works on new files
ohhh
ok ty
hold on
wouldnt it not say this then?
ive checked the modlog and well
and could understand anything except for the fact that it didnt load properly
Send the modlog
I kinda know how to read them now
You are missing dependencies such as itemchanger
Ok, so i don't think mods are the issue, since I reinstalled the game, have no mods, and i'm still getting severe lag. heck I got a 30-40 second loading screen after breaking the big door at the end of king's pass. Is there a way to allocate more RAM to the game or something?
Eh idk but i recommend closing everyrhing before playing
Wait nevermind
Thanks cyren for this
Tell me if it helps you
but i do have it
Modlog says otherwise. Reinstall it

how do you get a clean game file without mods?
the problem is my main steam game is on 1.4.3.2
I want to do it on current patch.
You have multi patches?
Then youll have to update the game. Use the method of multipatch again and then downpatch
I reccomend having cp as steam one for this type of things
so after some modding hollow knight wont run- like it starts and goes to the loading screen, then a lil thing pops up with the Knights head on it, then it closes
not sure what to do
What version of the game are you on?
Where did you got the game from?
What installer are you using?
- not too sure, should be the latest
- Downloaded it on the Xbox app on computer, and I've modded it before like a few days ago and it was working fine
- Scarab
Oh gamepass
ye
I dont realky know much what to do when this happens on gamepass other than reinstalling a mod in scarab
Sorry
its fine
Hi
Morninā
Could you screenshot this? Then try on scarab clicking disable api when the game is off and try running it again. If that doesnāt work, try reinstalling the game. Once itās working, screenshot the title screen of the game.
Hi guys, i'm trying to install modinstaller but everytime I open it it says that I have to update my game even though I already have the latest update
Get scarab
i did the API thing and it worked, but if thats off, there are no mods
"Once itās working, screenshot the title screen of the game."
so what was different about this time when it didn't work? Had you installed new mods or disabled some?
which mods specifically
Uh-
well
lemme take screenshots because im too lazy to list all these
when i show you this itll probably be understandable
i swear i had more than this a few days ago and it was working
i think
well sounds like you know what the issue is
i found a skin for costum knights. But it is a .rar data and scarab doesn`t recognize it. What can i do?
with editor?
what
I don't know what you're talking about
.rar files are compressed files. you'll have to use something like 7z or winrar to open it
and extract the files in it
i disabled a few mods and its working now
the ones i disabled are the ones that i wanted to use- sad
god soul and hell
i think
disable some others then
like, uninstall everything. start from scratch
also, if you have both godsoul and hell mod on at the same time, they might be conflicting
since they both affect game mechanics
yeah understandable
reason i had both installed is because i love challenges and rage- so i thought it would work
thanks. now i understand what you mean. i didn`t know about this until now.
double click it
scarab
i need help i just god mod instaler and put enabled custom night and put skin into the file and now my hollow knight wont load
where'd you buy the game from? and which installer are you using
steam and ModInstaller-9-8-7-1-1616591438 that if that helps
screenshot your steam beta page
right click hk -> properties -> betas
this?
Check the pinned messages for more information - https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/187137504393035776/823796522751623168/unknown.png
get scarab from pins
and use that instead
you are using an installer now that is incompatible with your game patch
oh kk thx
i have terrible memory, so how do you get a map for a room rando seed again lads?
Yeah i Just dont know to
read the readme for it
aight thanks
am i doing sum wrong why cant i change skins i have the skins mod and skins in the folder but the ui just dont pop up
Options > mods > custom knight
nope
Ok
Can someone tell me why hollow knight won't run for me? (It started happening after I got scarab)
Where did you get the game from
steam
Are you on a beta?
What exactly happens when trying to run hk
Well check
When i press run it just doesn't load the game, and yesterday it said something about an error
Verify you actually arent on a beta
also silly question, but I have rarely used scarab
how would you manually install a mod such as the 1.5 anyrad
put the dll in a folder in the mods folder
just make sure u get the right anyrad, since there are a lot of wrong 1.5 versions
how to install enemy randomizer like
.
Do I need to place that bunch of dll files in the mods folder?
Wait ismoil wasnāt there a version where yoi only needed 1 dll
Just 1.5modcommon and enemy rando ones
ooooh ok thanks for the help
I am having trouble installing infinite notches mod
Iāve already gotten the characters one but now it wonāt work again
wdym the characters one
Custom knight
did you uninstall satchel
No
Oops I just did
I can get it back
It wonāt work
Oh no
It just says āAn exception occurred while installing or uninstalling Satchel.ā
Is your game open?
No
where'd you get the game from
How do I check that
help, my inventory is empty (mantis claw, rancid eggs etc not showing)
Mods?
yeah, but which one? or do mods disable inventory in general?
DRPC failed, probably because discord was closed when I opened HK
Sfcore does stuff with inventory are your items in the journal

Also try putting modcommon 1.5 in a different folder
Yes
I'm playing on 1.2.2.1 with the debug mod, windowed. When I try to create a save file, it shows a quote from a poem before going to a black screen and doing nothing. I've waited 5 minutes for the save file to load, and still nothing happened.
Did you follow the message i replied to here?
sounds like your game is missing files
do the downpatch again
oh, alright. Thanks
yes i installed the Modcommon 1578 and EnemyRandomizer
Yeah you didnt follow the message
ooooh in the same folder?
or separate folders
1.5 does not load dll files that aren't in folders
so the files you put there are not being loaded
thanks again
i followed but my english still kinda bad, i might have missed something, thanks
both this time and the last time that I've done the downpatch through the steam console, it hasn't shown a "download complete" or anything like that. One possible problem could be my controller's config loading every time I click in or out of steam, but that doesn't seem like the kind of thing to interfere with a download (screenshot).
nevermind, it's working now
I'm using a different directory to stop confusion
and it's working
is scarab better than the old mod installer?
you don't need to do it this way
just change the steam patch in betas to 1221
the depot method also requires you to downpatch steam first
all of that is unnecessary now. just use the dropdown in betas
that's probably why the installation that I'm using works, because I believe that I used the steam betas thing in the past when trying to download this but then got distracted generally from hk for a while. This one works, so I'm just using it now
thanks for the help, though :)
they are for different patches
so yes, it's "better" in that scarab works for current patch
and has the updated mods
ok thanks
So I installed custom knight using scarab and put the skins I downloaded in the skins folder, but when I try to equip a different skin in game my knight is still the default one, what am I doing wrong?
Custom Knight troubleshooting
Please post a screenshot that shows:
- Where you installed the skin
- With the directory bar visible
- With the skin images themselves visible
Example what an installed skin looks like:

yo can some1 send a link where there are tons and tons of hk skins and mods?

I need help trying to use skins with multiplayer, so I've used the instructions and went to the skin, and put in the id of the skin once I started hosting, but it just changes me to a regular knight, but keeps my wings and hud. The issue is that the game isn't creating any filed called id.txt, so I just made one myself, but still nothing. I haven't been able to test with someone else, but is there anyone that can help? (I am using current version of everything, and the skin I want to use is infection of the light or the spring one)
if anyone has an answer, ping me or dm me
if I don't answer right away, gimme a bit
oh, and without me hosting, my skins all work perfectly fine
I also have multiple skins if that's messing with anything, but I don't think it should
click on top of pinned messages
idk what OS you have
well, im in win so
win11 haha
so that one?
xdxd sorry im new to this kind of stuff
ok then probably the windows one
np
does anyone know how to set up a enemy rando? i tried to google but it where alot of things out of date so i need some help
and i tried looking on scarab but dont see a enemy rando mod on there either
i was gonna ask about an enemy rando error, but was pleasantly surprised
that said, is this folder structure correct?
So, no one knows an answer to this?
nvm it still refuses to show up
Another theory I have for my issue with skins not working right on multiplayer is that there's a folder in every skin folder called swap with a text file named replace, this text file is blank. Idk what I'd do with it, but anyone who knows my issue with skins on hkmp, please help
No put it in a folder
In a new one
And get satchel
thanks
Will the knight change but nothing else with hkmp?
Or, it could be that files from the old mod loader are still existing, so one of them could be messing with things, so I go through and delete old ones?
Swap is supposed to be there
If that's the case the game would crash
Essentially, the knight, sword, crystal dash, and spells become normal, and the only thing that stays as the skin I was already using is the hud, and when I double jump, but idk if others could see the double jump
Well, the game doesn't crash, it's just folders that after updating hollow knight, just ended up not doing anything
Ik that means there shouldn't be old mod installer files
So I should prolly go through and delete those lol
they arenāt there and wouldnāt do anything
Listen to what we say and donāt come up with your own theories
also, do i have to do something before making a new save for enemy rando? it doesn't randomize enemies on a normal save
Close the game open it and on the main menu hit load enemy randomizer and wait
One issue I had with the old one is that when I'd hit revert to unmodded, and it would say it couldn't find the path to vanilla hk, so instead of reverting before updating, I just made it the newest patch so the old mod loader wouldn't work
Then I got the new one which works just fine
oh
im blind as hell
Just do this pokemaster
I'll run this in just a few mins
is the game supposed to look like it's breaking?
Yep
oh thank god
Also, u can just call me Poke lol
ok, I ran it, it said some text and at the end had press any key to continue, so I hit space, then it closed, shoud I open and close hollow knight to see if I get the id.txt files?
(the text said it was removing bad custom knight files)
so, after running it then opening and closing hollow knight, it still won't add any id.txt files, but after reading the text from the thing I ran, there could be another issue?
It was saying it couldn't find the files, and it would clear if it could find them
Are you following the guide on using skins with hkmp?
and I went to the foler it was talking about (hence the screenshot on the left)
yup, and the part I get stuck at is that hollow knight won't create the id.txt files in the skin folders
Then just create a txt file yourself
I tried that as well, but when I put in the skin id when I'm hosting, the issue I explained earlier of it just removing my skin almost entirely happens
I gave you the wrong .bat try this one https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/879138066961424405/900956017951649822/Global_Settings_Reset.bat
maybe is there something with me already having on a skin then putting in the id or some setting within the settings of customknight
should I try now
(I ran the .bat)
ok, I opened hk and closed it, now to find the id files or add new ones in
ok, I added a couple id.txt files in, and made one of them 9 and the other 8
it still happens, but this time I recorded a clip of it happening so u can see better exactly what's happening
anyways, I need to go for now, if you have any other solutions, let me know
Disable ck could help
also, that spring skin I was wearing was the id:8, the 9th one was another skin I was trying
like, disable and try with just hkmp and the mods folder?
I mean the skins folder
Yes
well, when I disabled it, it immediately said there was an issue disabling it, and when I got in game (with it disabled), custom knight was still working as if it was on, maybe that's part of the issue
I'm uninstalling and reinstalling custom knight
Do you have a skin with Id 8?
ok, lemme go redownload those two skins
yea, the spring one I was already using was 8
And thatās the only skin on 8 and 8 is the only thing in the txt file
yup
how to install mods ( for skins ) pls ^^
Watch fireborns newest guide or follow the pins
ok, I just tried uninstalling the mod, reinstalling the mod, disabling the mod, running the .bat things, and more, and it still doesn't work, so maybe the issue isn't with custom knight, but with hkmp
I'll mess with it later, I can't do anymore rn cuz I gtg
@nova token
The user4.dat file is the save file
Also iirc the challenges have been discontinued
Helloo it is i random person on the internet
So i did get mods installed just fine but when i open the game it crashes
Any idea how to fix this
sounds like they didn't install just fine
where'd you buy the game and which installer did you use
I think steam? And scarab
you think steam?
I don't use the launcher anymore straight shortcut to the app
So I can't remember
Wait let me check
well launch steam
Yep yep steam
then screenshot your game's beta page
right click hk in steam -> properties -> betas
Well there's a slight problem here I don't have steam installed just launch it directly
so install steam then
Could that be the problem?
Like i need to launch it from steam to fix it
Hold on Maybe this is gonna work
Probably iHope
I tried more, and I still can't get it to work, so I guess if I play multiplayer, I just can't use skins
ayo could anyone tell me how to install Hollow Point? (aka. funny gun mod)
Install it from scarab
Done
Hp doesnt work on new saves
If you quit out then come back ot should work
oki, yeah i fixed it thanks
is there a way to recover deleted save files?
Depends but mostly yes
how? I'm in the Hollow Knight folder (appdata > locallow > team cherry > hollow knight) if theres anything related to saves in there
Yes
is it the bak files?
Rename the last bak where you remove the .bak from the name and delete the save with the same name before(make a backup before incase something went wrong)
Hello, I have a question about the ResetCharmNotches mod. I'm using it in a Rando 4 run and it works fine for the first session. However, if I quit to main menu or quit to desktop and reload my save file the notch costs for all the charms reset to their default value. Is there an additional mod or something I need installed to keep the custom notch costs from resetting on save reload?
uninstall that mod if you don't want it to function
Oh, so I use ResetcharmNotches to randomize notch cost and then disable the mod after the randomization is complete?
no
it's not used in randomizer at all
it literally is only to reset notches and costs to default values
so you're complaining about the mod's sole purpose
just uninstall it
That explains everything. Thank you for the help. I'll turn it off.
someone can help me?
Yes except you mean redfrog then idk
unknown. not enough information
I have a problem with scarab, when I install any mod, the game crash
where'd you buy the game
I didnt buy the game
/spoiler I'm stuck in queen's gardens station, I was using benchwarp and I can't even open the menu
you can't pause the game?
