i’m more used to uploading zip and not images

[red plinth]

oh that one is super neat. They remind me of candy corn.

[fierce flame]

grimm still looks like a cat either way

they even have orange “whiskers”

[red plinth]

......and now I'm tempted to make him an actual cat skin.

[lunar root]

NO

you have...

a trillion seven thousand nine hundred skins to make

wip

[red plinth]

make ALL the wips!

[lunar root]

oh

[red plinth]

finish none

[lunar root]

😭

[fierce flame]

maid grimm

[red plinth]

honestly high on my agenda list XD

[fierce flame]

you already have one lined up

[lunar root]

me omw to get all hbkit's wips and mixing them to make a full skin

[sullen crest]

Kit how many skins do you have on your list

[red plinth]

a few.

[lunar root]

a few hundreds

[red plinth]

look I put a baby in a jar

[fierce flame]

thousand

[sullen crest]

bab

[lunar root]

isnt that baby like 200 years old

[red plinth]

yes.

[lunar root]

cool

[sullen crest]

I can feel the grub sprite boundary pain in this image

[lunar root]

YEAH the crown

or head, idk

[red plinth]

nah that's just how I draw baby pk.

[lunar root]

oh

[red plinth]

he has the tinies

[fierce flame]

just so this doesn’t get lost to time @ colette

[lunar root]

baby genocidal king

baby's first genocide!

[fierce flame]

and hopefully last

[lunar root]

it wasnt!

[red plinth]

There's a knight skin version too

[lunar root]

YOOO

[red plinth]

Blame Dandy for giving me the power to swap cutscenes, I've been putting my efforts into updating Mould with custom cinematics instead of working on new skins XD

[fierce flame]

i’ve yet to see anyone on billibilli attempt cutscene yet so i can’t wait for the finished product

[red plinth]

I've already updated the google drive with the stag and nart scenes (as well as just cleaned up random debris on all the pngs while I was in there). Just have the endings and intro left.

[main dagger]

(inferno king grimm)
WTF killed me??

this isn't even the first time

is there like a single invisible pixel

[tiny night]

really cool! lol

[tiny night]

it seems cannot fit with the Draw Frame

[tiny night]

did u draw it using the small pic?

which there's a draw frame on the pic

[red plinth]

The first idle frame doesn't have a visible border. As long as you stay within a 61x130 canvas, its fine.

[tiny night]

🤔 maybe I misunderstand something

[red plinth]

Normally there is a visible red box around the sprite that shows the size limits, but when the size limit is the same as the canvas size, it doesn't show.

[tranquil notch]

Porco dio

[tiny night]

yeah I mean that red box

[pearl topaz]

scarab doesn't work that's why I asked for modinstaller.

Windows blocks it and on Windows 11 you have no way of running it anyway

[covert estuary]

XY problem

But also, you can definetly run scarab on windows 11

[pearl topaz]

I can't

[covert estuary]

Some screenshots are appreciated

[pearl topaz]

It's in german

does that matter?

[covert estuary]

https://windows.do/run-apps-blocked-by-windows-smartscreen/

Should be same enough for windows 11

(If it isn't, just google it)

[pearl topaz]

did all of that already

doesnt work cuz it says that this setting is managed by admin

and I am admin

which is really weird

[covert estuary]

Well that's a windows issue

So to google you go

[pearl topaz]

what mods to install with scarab?

[red plinth]

the ones you want to use. Nobody knows what you like but you.
Clicking on a mod gives a brief description of what it does, so peruse and use.

[pearl topaz]

are there any mods i can use to easily win the trial of the fools for geo?

I tried hollowpoint but that didn't really work

[pearl topaz]

or pantheon 5

[dense wigeon]

You can literally just give yourself geo if you really want

[pearl topaz]

is there sth like invincibility?

[dense wigeon]

Yes, although I wouldn't recommend it if you haven't beaten the challenges unmodded yet

[pearl topaz]

how do i get skins? i have the mod but there is only one skin

[thin fossil]

is there a mod where you can have more than 4 save files?

[lunar root]

Maybe moresaves?

[thin fossil]

man the mods have the most simplest names

thanks

[errant lance]

Made them easier to look for what you want and still couldn't even do that

[thin fossil]

i always expect some obscure names

[errant lance]

yet you didnt even attempt to try

[fierce dust]

I was totally not scouring around and saw this masterpiece of a skin being made. I do wish the creator finished it as it looks so good

[hot sentinel]

i looked in modding help and icant find the problem that i have

i downlaoded some skin and it has the soul bar thing there as a custom bar

but on the top left its just the original

[fierce dust]

max the soul meter out

[fierce dust]

here ye go, this is what it should look like, no?

[hot sentinel]

yeah i got it thanks

[fierce dust]

welcome, I run the same skin lol

[hot sentinel]

its nice tbh

[fierce dust]

it really is, it's been a skin for the longest of times thankfully

[stoic dirge]

Make a mod where there is always 5 primal aspids following you and you can't kill them. Also if you hit them their spit becomes explosive

[digital lodge]

the second part isnt something that's available to my knowledge
but as for the aspids themselves, there's a mod called aspidnest that allows you to add primal aspids, and a variety of other enemies to follow you

[errant lance]

you should be able to do that pretty easily

[manic whale]

does anyone know where some platforming mods are since i see things like godseeker platforming and platforming in kings pass but harder yet i cant find any

[wary ridge]

Does anyone know if there is a public collection of hollow knight skins or will I just have to manually find some. I’m going to also ask this in modding help if that’s where it meant to go.

[vague fable]

Is ColetteMSLP's Skin List still being updated? it says the last update was over a year ago

[lucid thicket]

She's planning to update it, I don't know when though

[vague fable]

oh alright

I was just hoping of asking to put my skin there (once I finish it ofc)

that way more people will see it

[lucid thicket]

I've seen people ping her here to notify her of potential new additions to the list, so I guess once you're done you can do that to make sure she'll see your skin

[dense wigeon]

I didn't know September 2022 was over a year ago?

But as I've mentioned, I was without a PC for several months, I'm currently working on an update but there's actually a lot of stuff to sift through & get added. And it's far from my main focus at the moment

[vague fable]

oh alright sorry

for some reason I read it as april instead of september

I won't bother you

[lean mulch]

So, I broke the steam speedrun achievements

[covert estuary]

Damn that's crazy

[lean mulch]

I havent even completed the game, I used a mod for checking completion status everytime I want and now I have these

[covert estuary]

Don't know why you needed a mod to do that

There is a save analyzer site

[lean mulch]

Im dumb, I just saw it in the scarab list and said: well, this could be useful for the rando

[covert estuary]

(https://reznormichael.github.io/hollow-knight-completion-check/)

[vagrant orbit]

That's a different thing

The mod they're referring to let's you check what your Rando stats are at any time

[covert estuary]

Why were you doing rando's when you haven't completed the game?

[vagrant orbit]

But the stats are displayed on the end-screen

[lean mulch]

Im a fucking idiot

So if you use it early, you get speed run cheevos

(I have no experience with the mod)

Using it before you have 2 or 5 hours in the save file

[covert estuary]

I'm just going to read the ReadMe

Will find it out eventually

[lean mulch]

Ok cool

[covert estuary]

Aha okay, makes sense

[lean mulch]

Im a master of screwing things up

Quick question, whats the archipiélago mod?

[weak plinth]

multi-game randomizer

[lean mulch]

I still dont really know what that means

[weak plinth]

it's like multiworld rando, but instead of everyone playing hk, other people can play other games

[lean mulch]

Uhhh, im dumb

[red plinth]

So say Person A is playing Hollow Knight and Person B is playing Legend of Zelda.
Person A could find B's boomerang in HK and person B could find A's monarch wings in LoZ.

[pearl topaz]

im playing hk modded rn with the debug mod, yesterday i gave myself some nail damage plus...
Does it reset after restarting? I feel like my nail does way too much damage

[lucid thicket]

the nail damage is stored in the save file so it doesn't get reset

[rustic needle]

hey, has anybody played the bomber knight mod? if so, do you know where you get the bomb ability

[tiny night]

maybe I can help for some skins

to update some skins

[dense wigeon]

I appreciate the help you've given with acquiring skins but I don't plan on adding anyone else as an editor for the list.

[inner mist]

im new to modding, and i want to be invincible so i can practice nkg and pv without resetting every 20 seconds... scarab doesnt seem to have a mod for this automatically, is there a way to make this happen?

[vagrant orbit]

Debug

[inner mist]

[stoic dirge]

Someone should make a gatling aspid. But the spit is explosive.

Or make a collector the drops aspid queens and vengfly kings

Oh and all the aspids the queens spawn are gatling aspids

Pls I just want to end fireb0rns rein

Make him fight orbsolut radiance or something

Make the watcher knights move as fast as Manis gods or whatever their name is

[vague fable]

speaking of custom bosses
I really wanna try to make a new unique bossfight one day, with custom animations and stuff

the only problem is

I don't know how to code ;-;

I do know a bit of unity though, but not much. just general easy stuff

[red plinth]

I have the same problem XD
I've got a custom boss fight in mind I'd love to make but no coding knowledge.

[vague fable]

I wanna make something like a "Void Knight" of some sorts. Basically a member of the void civilization before Hallownest

either that or The White Lady

[red plinth]

I wanted to make a battle against the black wyrm. I can already imagine a rough idea of how it would look and some attacks.

[sullen crest]

👀 That would be awesome

[wet cloud]

I've got the opposite problem, I can take existing sprites like cagney and peppino and turn them into bosses

Lacking art skills

[errant lance]

I can do boss moves, balances, and music, but no art or code

[vagrant ferry]

i just tried to speedrun but forgot i have lost artifacts

lol

[teal mirage]

tell me the best mods pls :p

[dense wigeon]

depends what you're looking for. (this isn't something everyone is just going to agree on LOL)

Like, my favorite thing is probably custom knight but some people never ever use it

[vagrant orbit]

I think that Zaliant's Surprise is the most commonly recommended mod

[dense wigeon]

(see I would never recommend that one)

[teal mirage]

I need new charms and interesting charms

and how to get them

[vagrant orbit]

And Debug, CK, and Rando4 are probably the most actively used mods

[teal mirage]

got those, now I need some.. new charms and new stuff

like things that'll help me more

[weak plinth]

1. click on mod names in scarab
2. read
3. play what interests you

[vagrant orbit]

Also, https://hk-modding.org/modsDetailed

Just type "Charm" into the box at the bottom, and browse

[teal mirage]

how to find new charms?

[weak plinth]

I go to flea markets tbh

lots of charms there

[teal mirage]

no I mean the ones that I get from scarab 💀

[red plinth]

I should probably update scarab. I'm still using 1.9 which does not have the github links lol

[lucid thicket]

1.10 released over a year ago, having the "this program is out of date" prompt showing up every time I open the app for that long would definitely annoy me lmao

[red plinth]

It never prompted me ¯_(ツ)_/¯

The only reason I knew it was out of date is because its been mentioned before that the github links are supposed to be on scarab and I just squinted at mine with confusion.

[lucid thicket]

Wait I remember that there was one version that didn't display the message when a new version was available, I guess it was this one

[red plinth]

figures XD

[worthy swift]

is the enemy randomizer in the latest release of Scarab the right way to install enemy rando?

[weak plinth]

ye

[lusty tinsel]

Ye

[worthy swift]

gotcha

yeah i dont think its working, what settings do you have to turn on in the mod settings in game?

[lusty tinsel]

Turn on all the modules and turn off zote mode and enemy enabler

Configure each module as desired

I'll make a reset to defaults button for cases where new installs didn't get properly configured for some reason

[worthy swift]

turn off enemy enabler?

[lusty tinsel]

Which version do you have?

[worthy swift]

how do i check

[viscid egret]

the mantis gods is in the base game now

[lusty tinsel]

Can you post a quick screenshot of what modules there are?

[worthy swift]

i updated scarab like 2 days ago

[lusty tinsel]

Those look good, then just go into each module and configure them

[worthy swift]

gotcha

[lusty tinsel]

The position one is empty on purpose

[worthy swift]

can you explain the randomization modes and scaling objects

[lusty tinsel]

Use the enemy enabler if you want to toggle on/off specific enemies like this

[worthy swift]

im confused what they mean

[lusty tinsel]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/914422183395205160/1094101432686350446/image.png

They should have descriptions under them

I can clarify the parts of those descriptions that are unclear

[worthy swift]

yeah

what does it mean by objects?

enemies?

and by scale does that mean scale in size, or scale in its damage to the original enemy?

[lusty tinsel]

If you're familiar with seeds, rng module determines how the seed is calculated for randomizing

So each object is like each individual object will randomize a certain way

Where transition will make a new seed each time you go through a door

Think of it on a sliding scale, more to less chaotic

Scale is just size

[worthy swift]

which one is the one that sets the enemies to be the same type across the entire game? Like vengeflys being a certain enemy, crawlids being another, etc

would be type right?

[lusty tinsel]

That's the "least" chaotic, or rightmost option of Type. Yep

Room tends to be the preferred one that strikes a good balance for most

If progression is a concern, disable randomize bosses in the general settings

[worthy swift]

ah okay, and that one resets each enemy to a completely different one for each room right?

[lusty tinsel]

All of these can be changed mid game

[worthy swift]

awesome

[lusty tinsel]

Yep

[worthy swift]

how do i scale enemy health/damage?

[lusty tinsel]

Also, bosses that replace normal enemies have their hp scaled way down and any that did 2 dmg now do 1 when that happens

That's just default for now

So tiny abs rad may be scary but should die in a few hits

[worthy swift]

yeah

first enemy i got was a sibling and hit me for 2 masks and took a sec to kill lol

[lusty tinsel]

Just, uh, beware waterways outside flukemarm. All those eggs turn into enemies and its a hellish place

Well, normal enemies that did 2 will still do 2

So those are the most deadly

[worthy swift]

yeah

is there anyway to change the health or damage values to the enemy that was originally there?

[lusty tinsel]

Actually right now they usually do try and take the original enemy hp value

[worthy swift]

gotcha

vengeflys turned into one of the city of tears enemies and took 6 or 7 hits lmao

[lusty tinsel]

Hehe

[worthy swift]

got softlocked

the room in forgotten crossroads where to gates close

[lusty tinsel]

In an arena? That's normal for now

[worthy swift]

no enemies showed up lol

[lusty tinsel]

That arena is about 50/50

If you come to the enemy rando channel on the modding discord you can see how to contribute to helping fix those or use debug mod for now and just skip it

[worthy swift]

can you even skip that room?

[lusty tinsel]

Noclip

Debug mod

[worthy swift]

well

time to reset

whats the name for aspid hunter in the enemy enabler

just gonna turn it off

• Test of Teamwork (adds a second, harder, PoP area)
• Lost Artifacts (adds a new series of findable items similar to Charms)
• Transcendence (adds a new series of hidden Charms
• Loremaster (Adds a lot of abilities, related to lore/dialogue)
• Skill Upgrades (Optionally modifies your skills/spells; more fun when playing Rando imo)
• The Glimmering Realm (A "second quest" that makes the existing assets of the game feel like a new game area)

Additional note: Charm Crab is apparently a "game overhaul" mod, that modifies a lot of things in the game (I know it modifies charms, but I think it tweaks a few other things as well). It's meant to give a new experience to a fresh playthrough, but it notably conflicts with most mods other than plain Rando.

Until Fyrenest has a fixing patch, the version on Scarab has been reverted to the previous working version.

Because of how Scarab works, it won't automatically install the old version for people that have the new one installed. Users still need to uninstall Fyrenest completely, and then reinstall it.

Ty!

[lucid thicket]

This is the menu of randomizer 3, which has been replaced by randomizer 4, the menu changed but since rando 4 has more options and doesn't randomize enemies I guess the "mode select" thing was to chose between item rando/room rando/some combination of both, enemy rando always was a separate mod

Hollow Point FAQ
ReadMe: https://github.com/TTacco/Hollow-Point/blob/master/README.md

🔹 Gun doesn't work / HUD is jank

• Hollow Point doesn't work on new saves. Save and quit, then reload the save file.
• Having multiple Gun Class charms equipped can also break the gun.

🔹 I disabled it and now healing doesn't work right
Hollow Point edits how Soul works on a file.
Here are ways to fix it:
<#archived-modding-help message>

🔹Not working with Custom Knight skins!
This is a known issue, and Custom Knight is not considered compatible with HP.
Here's steps that sometimes work for people (but if they don't, then you'll just need to play with the default skin):

• Uninstall/Disable Hollow Point
• Launch the game, and Apply the skin in the Main Menu.
• Open the desired Save File, pause and Apply the skin in the Mods Menu.
• Save and Quit, then close the game.
• Re-enable Hollow Point.

waht do i do if 'failed to initialize check modlog.txt'

disabling didnt work

uhh i did the thrid one too it didnt work either

[weak plinth]

why are you doing random stuff

all you had to do was leave the save, and re-enter the save

[dry snow]

i did that first

didnt work

then i did the third one

[weak plinth]

the third was not your issue

b/c your skin was working

[dry snow]

uhh now what do i do

just dont use the mod?

[weak plinth]

that's a choice you can make I guess

[weak plinth]

no. saves location is shared across all patches and they are not in your game files. they are in a separate location

if you delete saves while playing on 1221, that will delete saves when you play on another patch

Is there a mod that causes grimmchild to disappear? I have the charm equipped but I want grimmchild's attack

[errant lance]

you want grimmchild to attack but you don't want the sprites there or somethin?

[vivid snow]

No, what's happening is that when I have grimmchild equipped, grimmchild doesn't appear nor attack

I don't want that

[errant lance]

that sounds like a bug more than anything

does it only happen in certain areas or

I have a question, my friend has hollow knight on his PC through xbox app, is he still able to get mods or does he need steam?

[mossy geyser]

?tag gamepass - he can use mods with the xbox game pass installed version, just make sure he follows the below steps.

[granite agate]

How to use Scarab in Microsoft Store
🔹 First enter the Xbox app and move your mouse over Hollow Knight on the left bar.
🔹 Click the three points then click "Manage".
🔹 Go to the "Files" tab and select "Browse...".
🔹 Click Hollow Knight then Content, click the path bar and copy it.
🔸Run Scarab as admin and when it asks you for the path paste what copied before.

Alternate Method:
🔹 Click on your profile then "Settings"
🔹 Go to "General" tab and select "CHANGE FOLDER"
🔹 Look for a folder where you want to install the game (Preferably inside a folder in your desktop).
🔸 Copy the path bar, then run Scarab as Administrator and when it asks you for the path, paste what copied before.

Scarab path folder needs to have Hollow Knight_Data folder inside

[ember yew]

ok thanks that worked

[plain pasture]

Okay so I verified the integrity of my game files after trying to start a room rando and my character having all my items from a previous rando save. Now the mods won't show and I can't think of how to have them show back up. I opened the files and the mod folders are still there...please help.

[weak plinth]

install a mod

[plain pasture]

Also, by chance can you only have one rando active at a time? I was thinking that could be the reason my items transferred because I already had a rando save file.

[dry snow]

Ugh… I’m doing a hk map and item rando

Right now, it’s genuinely making me want to tear my eyes out

[dense wigeon]

I mean, if tearing your eyes out is what you're into ...

[dry snow]

No what i mean is that im in pretty bad circumstances

The transition of maps change at the worst possible time

it gave me almost all of deepnest

but im locked out of tram pass and i don’t have lantern or vengeful spirit

because it sends me to locked off love tower right where failed tramways would be

at first i thought it was blessed

(I started with crystal heart and mantises)

but it slowly started to deteriorate after that

now it mostly only switches at area transitions and i haven’t even seen crossroads yet

guess they really are forgotten after all

im sorry

i was forced to warp into dirtmouth

[dense wigeon]

Rando never forces you to warp somewhere you haven't been (unless you're using like, new connections that don't have their logic bugs worked out). Transition rando logic is pretty stable.

[dry snow]

No what i mean is that

I was basically softlocked

in deepnest

because i didn’t have lantern

[dense wigeon]

you can always return to your starting position even if you haven't found any benches

[dry snow]

Ok

So maybe i didn’t want to try to find an exit that wasn’t blocked by darkness or giant pits

[dense wigeon]

well then that's different than being "forced"

You can choose to play rando however you want of course, but you characterized it as something wrong with the seed, which is exceedingly rare

[dry snow]

Sorry for making it seem like that
My wording is questionable sometimes
But Look i felt like i was in an inescapeable situation because of failed tramways was blocked off by a transition into locked love tower

[dense wigeon]

Then you weren't supposed to be there yet. Warping to dirtmouth won't even do much for you if you're in full room rando, other than take you probably away from intended progression.

[dry snow]

Really?

I started hk modding today

There were a lot of twisting paths

I don’t really think hollow knight has a linear progression system either

[dense wigeon]

If you're going to do transition rando, most people make a map or use the map mod to keep track of where there are unexplored transitions. While HK is non-linear, rando does understand what progression is & won't generate a seed that is not completable

[dry snow]

oh

[dense wigeon]

Every item & every transition has logic attached to it

[dry snow]

I probably just got in a position my brain didn’t very much enjoy the idea of getting out of

also it is okay to benchwarp if you’ve been to said bench before right

[dense wigeon]

Yes, that's the normal way of unlocked them in bench warp & intended/expected by rando (along with warping to start location)

[dry snow]

I warped to the dirtmouth bench after that and went to a different path i hadnt previously fully explored yet

[dense wigeon]

Sorry if I misunderstood, it sounded like you just unlocked all & decided to go there

[dry snow]

ah ok

I’ve mostly been mapping everything out in my head

[dense wigeon]

Good luck with that, I would have a lot of trouble remembering several hundred transitions

[dry snow]

also I just need one other white fragment which jiji has so Rancid eggs are like very valuble

Also the crossroads are now actually living up to their name of forgotten because I HAVENT SEEN IT ONCE IN MY PLAYTHROUH YET

[dry snow]

YOOOOOOOO

MONARCH WINGSSSS

[dry snow]

so i just went from fog canyon to white palace

I mean yeah i could try

but i don’t have any soul or mask upgrades

although i do have all movement mechanics

should i come back later when i have more upgrades or do it now?

[dense wigeon]

I mean, if you have the movement rando expects you to do it now. your masks could all be thru there LOL

If it comes down to it you could always drop a bench

[dry snow]

Ok im doing it

also i managed to get lucky

im at the final stage

I dropped in from the PoP entrance

[dry snow]

oh god this is gonna suck

every time i expend my 7 masks, i have to go to the balcony bench in white palace’s final parkour section

It will take a while, and i MEAN a while, to get past the entirety of what’s left of white palace.

[crisp crane]

So, is there a place i can go to find sombody to remake all the sprites for the knight and stuff to my liking? for money of course.

[dense wigeon]

there's a recruiting channel in the modding server (in pins). Custom Knight comissions usually start at at least $100 & go up from there

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.

[granite agate]

Editing save files
You can edit various values of save files. Below are different available methods.

🔹 MoreSaves Mod

• With the MoreSaves mod installed, you can edit save files from the Mod Menu. Pause the game then go to Options>Mods>MoreSaves to edit save files in game.

🔹 QoL mod

• If you open a save file with QoL installed, you'll have an extra save file called user#.json, which can be edited using Notepad or a similar text editor. If you do not know where your saves are located, type ?tag saves for more information

🔹 DebugMod

• While not an intended purpose, you can edit some parts of your save file using Debug, such as Nail Damage, and those changes will remain even after uninstalling the mod.

Especially all the names in the module list I have no idea what is what lol

Im seeing a lot of videos about skins and they have like a fast way to change it, ive the skins and everything good, but i wanna know how i get that skin changer from pause menu

Cuz i allways have to go to the custom knight menu, and is too much time

Idk if u can help me

[vagrant orbit]

You're watching old videos

There didn't used to be a proper Mods Menu, so mods needed to create their own menus on the pause screen

In modern modding, mods have their own Menus in the Mods Menu, so putting them directly on the screen is no longer used. (Doing to can cause mods to not work with other mods, so it's very frowned upon)

At one point @meager pine was working on a little CK addon mod, that was going to add an optional menu like the old style one, and/or add a Keybind to go straight to the menu (and/or possibly just have a Debug intertop, so that Debug Keybinds could be used?).

But I think that they had to take a break from modding, so idk the status of that

[knotty egret]

Okay, i understand, thank u so much

😄

dont really have time for other mods atm bc of hnvocals

Is AnyRad 3.0 now playable?

Or still in Development

[neon wraith]

imagine if it just summons 25 Any rads

[dry snow]

Isn’t that very specific

I wonder why

[vagrant orbit]

It should be on the installer

[cyan star]

for some reason whenever i touch a boss i take double damage don't know if this is related to a mod that i have installed any help would be appreiciated

[lusty tinsel]

*adds to the list of future modules

[dry snow]

Oh god it’s out

[lusty tinsel]

Yeah feedback on what's confusing is very much appreciated. If you're referring to the enemy names in the "Enemy Enabler" module, that's a side effect of the internal game names for enemies being different from the journal ones and something that will be eventually adjusted

[worthy swift]

Ah yeah that makes sense. Hopefully it can be fixed down the line for the mod

[lusty tinsel]

it's on my todo, but things like naming are behind the big list of broken enemies that still need fixing. ofc others are more than welcome to work on the enemy enabler submodule and help out.

one big plus of having modules is that others can contribute much easier

as an example, this is the whole module:

https://github.com/Kerr1291/EnemyRandomizer/blob/master/EnemyRandomizerDll/EnemyEnabler/EnemyEnabler.cs

[worthy swift]

I would offer to help but have no idea how to code or anything lmao

Definitely excited for everything to be in working order and not buggy anymore tho for sure

Very cool project

[lusty tinsel]

yeah, i'm posting mostly to make this info more public

but like, that enabler module boils down to just one line really:

ModuleOptions = Database.Enemies.Select(x =>
                        {
                            return (x.Value.prefabName, "", true);
                        }).ToList();

also, next update will have several more enemies working than before

i had a streamer do some playtesting the other day and apparently i accidentally fixed gorb? i guess he had a broken ability that would never activate

i'm sorta going through each enemy and removing all the hard coded stuff, so that was funny

the streamer also decided to try random scaling, here's some clips if ya'll like to see some of the new stuff

Hey y'all, quick question: I used to be good at Hollow Knight and knew how to mod it and stuff, so my game is modded, but I want to get rid of the impossible map thing and I don't know how (haven't played in more than a year, haven't really played anything to be honest) is anyone able to help?

[lunar root]

What mods do you have

Its shown on the top left o the screen

Or do you just wanna get rid of all mods

[barren stone]

I want to get rid of the map mod

but I don't know which one that is

[lunar root]

You probably have decoration master

[barren stone]

Oh yes I do, I thought that made character look nicer or something!

Didn't realize that was the map mod

thank you for the help, I will disable it and see if it works normal now

[south mica]

Hello, does anyone know how I could replace the NKG sprite for custom knight? File name, location etc.

lmao this will be fun (and laggy)

i think i broke some of them

[vagrant orbit]

I mean, they literally tell you what's wrong

[kind obsidian]

yeah, for some reason satchel got turned off. i turned it back on a turned off some mods that might have been lagigng my game.

[dry snow]

If I have IKG or any other boss mod on, will the modded boss be in pantheons/overworld or the normal boss

[dry snow]

?

[vagrant orbit]

It would depend on the boss and what it does. Generally speaking, Modded Bosses will work in Hall of Gods. Some work outside of there, but not all.

Hello, I'm new, how do I put skins on my hollow knight?

help please

[minor hawk]

?tag ck

[granite agate]

__Custom Knight __
🔹 Resources

• List of all skins: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qKfOtOXpYormusD05I700P8d79E74R1bTb3MP4vum-E
• Video Tutorial on using CK:
  https://youtu.be/z35cFvU0McQ?t=466

🔹 Common issues

• Make sure that you apply skins from the Pause Menu (Options > Mods > Custom Knight), when you have your save file loaded.
• If you have White Boxes ◻️, restart your game. You may also need to try applying the skin in a small/empty room, like a stag station.

🔹 Troubleshooting
Please post a screenshot that shows:

• Where you installed the skin
• With the directory bar visible
• With the skin images themselves visible

Example screenshot (yours should look like this):

does anyone know how to get decoration master mod maps? i want impossible any%

[austere pivot]

Sorry, idk the link for this one

but u can check this link for another challenges if u want:
https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/1PScMvP77yynVEiqwMmXDKnHuCdL2WNCN

[minor hawk]

But you can probably find it on YouTube, under fireborn’s video on it
Also they are a mod like any other, so your are going to need scarab and stuff

(More info should be in #1057825333841240104)

[dense wigeon]

Also as a note it's my understanding that some parts of Impossible Any% are broken with the current version of decoration master due to a change in the conveyor belts? So some of those may just be stationary instead of moving.

@everyoneI recently installed HKMP on scarab, and when i join the tag.hkmp.org, or hkmp.org, it lets me join but i don't see anyone else on the map, and nobody is near me. is it just that nobody uses these servers? if so, what server ip + port always has people on it?

Tag is usually empty, if you enter randomly you will rarely find anyone.
The other servers almost always have someone online, if you want to do some multiplayer mode it's better to talk on the HKMP server.

For mods not on scarab

https://hk-modding.org/mods

For a list of mods and their ReadMe

[dim pebble]

Here's a few tips on it:

1. You dont have the perms to do it for a reason. That pinged no one because you need to be a staff member
2. Even if you are in a server where you can do it, dont.

If your ping worked there, 214 thousand people would have probably been very mad at you

80 out of 214 thousand isn't all too bad tbh

To manually install mods on 1.5.78.
🔹 Download the mod (it'll be either a dll file or a folder).
🔹 Go to your /Mods folder and create a folder with the name of the mod.
Note: You can use your installer to Open the Mods Folder
🔹 Move the mod file(s) into the newly created folder.
➡️ Run the game.

Example of an installed mod:

You could save edit yourself the charm and remove your great slash

?tag saveedit

[granite agate]

Editing save files
You can edit various values of save files. Below are different available methods.

🔹 MoreSaves Mod

• With the MoreSaves mod installed, you can edit save files from the Mod Menu. Pause the game then go to Options>Mods>MoreSaves to edit save files in game.

🔹 QoL mod

• If you open a save file with QoL installed, you'll have an extra save file called user#.json, which can be edited using Notepad or a similar text editor. If you do not know where your saves are located, type ?tag saves for more information

🔹 DebugMod

• While not an intended purpose, you can edit some parts of your save file using Debug, such as Nail Damage, and those changes will remain even after uninstalling the mod.

🔹 Website

is there a version of toggleable bindings mod for 1.5 ?

Yes

with scarab

[azure geyser]

i thought scarab only has an old version

[lucid thicket]

Scarab only has 1.5 mods

[azure geyser]

i think i installed an old version of scarab or something, it only has <1.3 mods

then that's not Scarab

Are you sure you aren't making a confusion between the version of the mods and the version of the game they're made for

[dense wigeon]

Good point Wangha

[azure geyser]

thats probably what is happening

[dry snow]

vocalized isnt loading

it crashed last time but now its just stuck

on the opening loading bar

You have all dependencies?

what are all the dependencies

Scarab tells you

the install instructions just wanted you to download the mod alone

does it take long to load the first time playing?

Can I mod on a switch ?

Yes and it also downloads a bunch of other stuff that, without it the mod literally fails to function

[dry snow]

No, sorry

Oh, okay thnks

[dry snow]

like it doesn’t even finish loading into the game

Or is it just my pc

Make sure you also have all of this

ok

[dry snow]

Potentially, this is a huge mod

i don’t think i had mirror

The mod itself is 60 mb the audio loader is over 300

The original size of that was 4 gb

K im gonna install all stuff

thanks

[red plinth]

Also good rule of thumb for any video game, when something is loading just....never click anything until it finishes. Even if you think its frozen, just give it some time.

[dry snow]

ok

I made sure it was all installed

now ill just wait

I wonder what will happen now

[dry snow]

i mean

this is a big mod we're talking here

[random elk]

That shouldn't happen tho. The mod doesnt block game loading to load the audio

[pure shore]

Ehh, 310 MB, I’ve seen worse.

[pure shore]

Oh no no I mean without the mod it’s 2 minutes

and with the mod it should be like 10 seconds more ||hopefully||

does anybody know how to disable these things, when I first used decoration master they didnt use to show up

[digital lodge]

do you have creator mode on?

[manic sparrow]

oh yeah thats it

thanks

[digital lodge]

yeah that exists so map creators can track spawns

[dry snow]

@frail lintel stop adversiting your mc server here

[oak plinth]

how do you create a mod-pack. Am I just going to have to manually copy+paste each mod into a new folder, or is there a better way to do it

[weak plinth]

what?

you're asking like 2 different questions here

[oak plinth]

You can create Mod-packs right? How do it? I want to create one so I can give my friends the pack so we can do HKMP

[weak plinth]

what do you mean by "create mod packs"

[oak plinth]

A package deal of mod's that you can send someone so they have all the same mods. For example, how Fireb0rn uses a modpack for Infection

If other people can make one, how do I make one?

do I just copy+paste each mod I want in the pack to it's own folder so I can send it, or is there an easier way to do it that I don't know about?

[weak plinth]

I mean.... just install mods with scarab

and have your friends click install on the same mods

[oak plinth]

fine then, I won't make it needlessly complicated =(

[inner needle]

am i suposed to unzipe the file to use the skin?

[dense wigeon]

yes (any zipped file should be unzipped before using)

[inner needle]

thanks

ive been trying to have hallownest vocalized load for three hours

does it usually take this long

[random elk]

no

[dry snow]

damn

slow device id presume

probably too heavy for your hardware

[random elk]

how much ram do you have?

[dry snow]

4

[dry snow]

also its just a bunch of audio files right?

[random elk]

the mod itself needs 400 MB spare

[dry snow]

Of ram or disk space

[weak plinth]

4 GB of RAM? yeah, that's not enough

[random elk]

both but RAM is most likely the one limiting you

[weak plinth]

HK itself uses like 3.2+ GB

add mods, and that goes way up

[dry snow]

Look it can play randos just fine

and other mods

not this one ig

[random elk]

yea cuz it doesnt have 400 MB of audio assets

[dry snow]

My computer just downloads things slowly

it should be fine

just taking a long time

[weak plinth]

not listening to the technical experts is definitely a strategy you can take I guess

[dry snow]

I’m sorry

I just

I don’t have the kind of money to buy an expensive pc

its using 2 gb of my ram just to boot itself up

It’s not ”not listening”

there’s not anything i can do about it

right now

[weak plinth]

HK's baseline requirements is 4 GB. recommended to have 8 GB.

[dry snow]

I know

[weak plinth]

so add mods, especially a big one, and you're over your limit

and things break

being able to do something about it doesn't matter. you're over the RAM requirements

¯_(ツ)_/¯

so can't use vocalized mod RN

[dry snow]

…

It wouldn’t hurt to try though, right?

if you want to, sure

I’ve lived with my shitty laptop for years

I managed to run black mesa, even though it’s way above my specs

[random elk]

no one stopped you from trying. you asked for an explanation in why it took so long to load and we're trying to explain that

[dry snow]

It just feels like you guys are talking to me in a condecsending way
