Important note: "Invalid Addons" means that you have extra HKMP addons that can't be used on the server. Pouch servers can have any Addons that say that they require Pouch, but you otherwise cannot use others!
Well you can go through your list of addons just as well as me
how can i do that
can i justdisable them
Sure
so what addons do i have to disable to play in the co-op server?
Pouch servers can have any Addons that say that they require Pouch, but you otherwise cannot use others!
So disable all the addons that do not require pouch
Try T
can i do pantheons with people?
From what I know technically
Like you both can start at the same time and hit each other’s bosses with nail
ok
Yeah there likely isn't anyone on right now
If you want to play tag with other people you should join the multiplayer server and give yourself the tag role, so if other people want to play you'll get pinged
is there a mod to start the absradiant fight at stage 3?
no, but you can juse debug and just shriek your way to the platform phase
and use a savestate

I thought that there was one for choosing a radiance phase
Can you guys show me some real fun mods
Like if i was experiencing the euphoria of playing hollow knight for the first time again
Randomizer
There are a large number (possibly the majority?) of mods that are for Rando.
I like to do solo rando runs on the coop hkmp server, which essentially just need that I also sometimes run into other people and nod at them a bunch
Welcome to the club, you will never, but have fun trying
I just bought this game on pc after playing on switch forever... I wanted to do my first playthrough with mods but I know some games break when that happens... is it the case for this too?
fair enough lol
btw I just scrolled up and noticed the mod list for stuff that isn't on scarab... how do I install those?
also iirc there was a huge doc with all the skins... got a link to that by any chance?
?tag install
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:

They wouldn't split the performance mods into several tags
If there were others, they would be included in the tag that is specifically about lag
Which is the one you used
By the way if someone who's able to edit the tag lag command is here, the install command it gives is incorrect (it shows ?install instead of ?tag install)

is randomizer 4 the randomizer mod?
idk, if you read the mod descriptions...
ok so im playing randomizer save
but im stuck at the part of the spell thing
cause i cant kill the enemy
have you messed up with the betas in steam?
am i soft locked???
i was playing 1.4.4 and changed it back to the current version
no. game knowledge issue
reinstall any mod
but i checked the files and it is all in there should i still reinstall it>
?
i sould be able to kill the boulder with the spell but my luck is trash and so i have to leave this part for now
yeah, reinstall any mod from your list by deleting it then installing it
there's like 20 ways to kill the baldur
you could also install a new one then delete it
stop pinging me
ismoil how do i kil the baldur?
idk, why should i answer
oh wait
goodbye
the readme is also a good thing to read
it works, thanks
btw is achievement disabled if i use mods?
i mean, why not but alright
youre welcome 
they shouldnt unless you install the mod for it
i see
though some rare times they do break, you can save edit to get the achievement tho, that would give it to you in steam too
how to change enemy sprite?
?tag skinfaq
🔸 Why do skins take so long to make/Why is making skins so difficult?
Making a skin involves redrawing every sprite relevant to the skin - at the very least, all the sprites that feature the Knight. That, alone, is over 500 sprites. More detailed skins, editing spells and HUDs can go up to over 850 sprites. All of these sometimes needs to be redrawn over and over. Depending on the complexity of the design, making a skin can take well over months of work to complete.
🔹 Where can I commission a skin, and how much would it cost?
You can ask in #art-discussion on this server, on in #recruit in the modding server linked in the pinned messages of #modding-discussion.
The price varies with the skin's complexity, but a simple one consisting only of the Knight's basic spritesheets will cost upwards of 100 USD and Euros/90 GBP, if only because of the sheer amount of time that needs to be spent on it. More complex skins and ones of higher quality would increase in cost.
🔸 How can I make my own skin?
A good way to get started is following one of these two videos by Megan. They go over important information about the creation process.

🔹 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.

honestly I don't know if there's a tutorial in this server on enemy skins but there's one in the modding server, linked in the resources of the list
ok thanks
ahhh, how come it's not a tag here? ?tag skins in modding is very useful
iirc i yeeted an older command that wasn't as fleshed out and didnt have a lot, would make a good tag here though, although it would look incredibly ass
I didn't make it here originally because it's a big list of links, which looks :woozy: without being able to format them.
That being said, since then discord changed how Discord message links look, so it may not be terrible anymore
tags don't use embeds and it's incredibly annoying 🥴
but if menderbot was here however...

get the installer from the pins, custom knight from the installer, and the skin from the list in the bot's message
i installed blue story from this channel
but its weird
like
i extracted it
from the winrar folder
and its just a bunch of images
and it wont work
.
you also need to install it in the correct folder, as shown in the pic above
.
We should move that to #1057825333841240104 , that's more appropriate at this point, and also describe precisely what "doesn't work" (also why did you reply ping the message that posted the skin?)
accidentaly
what mod should i do if i want to do a challenge run? something along the lines of new bosses or charms, new endings, platforming, etc
Glimmering realm
Or rando I guess
There is also firenest which does a bunch of things
im not a fan of the enemy randomizers
oh ok
The other two are options
Don’t use both though, stuff will break
Also there is lost artifact which is cool
do u mean fyrenest?
Probably
for platforming you should try test of teamwork
ill check that out too
could i ask help for finding the Randomizer Map S mod on the scarab app? im goin through fireborns video and thats the only one i cant find
Map mod s is outdated, use randomapmod
alright thank you

Incredible how one singular mod made me want to go back to experience hollow knight much earlier than i thought i would
any of yall see hollow knight vocalised
Nope. None of us
I have only heard it
none among us

mk
You shouldn't need to. They should be saved to your mod-save data
finally an answer
is there a death counter mod?
Yup
It’s probably on scarab
But may be named something unrelated like "hit counter"
oh wait no it's right there called death coutner nvm im just blind
Where does it say how to mod switch
Aw man
If you have it on switch do you have it on pc for free
Is there a mod that gives inf geo
No to your 1st question, yes to the 2nd, but it's not recommended to use mods in a 1st playthrough
mod your first playthrough

Nah i reccommend just playing the game without any mods first and experience the full game then start playing with mods

❗Hollow knight Crashes upon opening, after installing a mod
This glitch can happen for a number of reasons make sure that all the reasons listed listed below don't apply to you.
🔹 Your game patch doesn't match the installer you used.
- Scarab is made for patch 1.5.78+
- Modinstaller 1 & 2 are made for version 1.4.3.2
- there aren't installers for other patches.
🔹 Something didn't install correctly
- Ensure that the installer is not still in a .zip file, and that it's not in your Downloads folder.
- Run the installer as Administrator
Your game is pirated / illegitimate.
Piracy is not supported in most communities for games. Mods are not considered compatible with pirated copies, and you will not get troubleshooting support in any of the main servers for them.
HK Modding is only supported on the official versions from Steam, GoG, or the Microsoft Store.

dont choose and wants me to choose smth
what do i choose
that should open the folder with your saves in it
if you see stuff like user1.dat, user1.dat.bak etc ur in the right place
those are the save files and backups for all of your slots
just copy the entire folder and save it in another directory to backup all of your saves.

pinged 2 years later 
bro i cant use scarab 😦
Rip
i know
double click it itll fix it
bruh
b r u h
Hello! hope this is the right channel, but i have a quick-ish question
Is there a mod for the Randomizer 4 mod that shows what rooms lead to where? Because i keep getting lost or i come back from a break at the randomizer to not remember where the rooms spit me out?
RandoMapMod
im talking about this

can i just delete mods without it corrupting saves?
It would depend on the save, but generally yes.
Some mods permanently affect the save though
Afaik gs+ doesn't affect saves

how can i know
I mean, you'll know if something ends up being broken later 
I would imagine that HKV is safe, but it does edit some game events, and idk if it alters save data itself
Generally with any game though, you should backup your saves before you mod
?tag savefiles
Save Files
The save files for Hollow Knight are shared between all installs of the game, and are easily interacted with.
🔹 What do the save files looks like?
- Hollow Knight save files are in the form of
user#.dat, where#is the save slot for the file.. - You can take a file named
user3.datand rename it touser1.datto set it to your first save slot. - You can keep a copy of all of your save files by copy and pasting them into a different folder on your computer.
🔹 Reverting Backup files
- You have save file backups that are called
user#.dat.bak#, where the first#is the save slot, and the second#is the backup number. Typically speaking, you will have your last three backups. - You can set a backup to be the real file by deleting the main file, and then removing the
.bak#part of the backup file.
🔹 Modded save files
- If you are using mods, a modded save may also have a
user#.modded.json(and similarly named backup). Both this file and theuser#.datare part of the save.
🔹 Where are the files?
- On windows, the default path for Save Files is
%appdata%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\ - For other operating systems, type
?tag savesinto chat.
🔹 I need a specific type of save file
- Various save files can be found in the "Saves" section of this page: https://www.speedrun.com/hollowknight/resources
🔹 Editing save files
You can edit various values of save files. Below are different available methods.
- 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. - MoreSaves mod: With the MoreSaves mod installed, you can edit save files from the Main Menu.
- 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: https://bloodorca.github.io/hollow/
just type the whole thing in your file explorer address bar

If someone don't know how to get mods, there is actually a great app for modding on pc, it's called Scarab. Fireb0rn made video about that and explain how to using Scarab easly. I recomend that video, maybe it will help you

Wow, it would be so cool if that video were recommended and easily available, perhaps even pinned.
nah that's not possible

So i wanted to turn my fragile charms into unbreakable ones but Divine left, i think thats because i did completed the Troupe quest
(i know she sometimes stays i dont know the parameters for that)
Yeah if you banish she leaves if she doesn't currently have a charm
is there some mod that can help me with this? I want to keep carefree melody and i dont want to complete void heart i want to use kingsoul
And then she leaves after you are done with that charm
You can do that with debug iirc
with debug there is an option to get all charms but just that
you could change it with save editing, or just not worry about it
there's not much endgame that unbreakables actually matter for
?tag savefiles
oh damnit I can never remember which save command has the editing stuffs
No, that should have worked
oh, is bot ded?

If not, debug can always repair them

there we go
ill try to
I'm quite certain there is an option for it
i think so, yeah
All charms gives the unbreakable versions
Then you can get carefree and kingsoul by those options
grimmchild 5 is cfm, yeah
Yeah and full kingsoul is kingsoul 3
ok i did

i got all charms but i saw that i could change the state of void heart and grimmchild
i hope the dialogue is not messed up now im in a quest to hear everything because im used vocalized
is there a different button for opening up debug mod on 1.4.3.2 or smth?
I installed it and it says I have it in top left of main menu but in game I can't open it

Yeah you can say that
Iirc Scarab+ also had an option to reset global settings, but I don't remember if it is built in or you have to use a url
wait so how do I reset the global settings of just debug mod
delete the global settings file
ah ok
yo guys how do i give myself geo with debug mod and if i cant is there any other mod that can do so?
Why do you need to give yourself geo?
its under one of the dropdown menus in the top right
16th page of the binds menu
ah nice
is it still here too lol
It don't think I've ever seen that here but maybe I'm blind
ok yea its under items
will the enabled mods will get removed after i uninstall scarab
and how can i even uninstall it
hey quick question anybody know how to fix my map not popping up at all i tried deleting the game and everything and installed it again but no luck.
tbh idek i thought it would help
You should probably make a post in #1057825333841240104 with all requested info
and yes i was using mods but i figured that was the problem because i made a new game in hollow knight and with the mods my map would show up there
No, think of scarab as something that downloads and places mods correctly. It can't do anything if it's not open
Did you buy the map
Just yeet the exe
yes i have the map
Okay, in that case follow this
okay thanks it says every 30mins i can make a post i js made one but it dont show up i made it is that normal?
It's a common problem
ahh okay so it should pop up later ?
no. it should pop up immediately
wow no one responded
oh wow i really didn't see that
this means yes ?
all the mods will get removed after i uninstall scarab
you have to uninstall mods with scarab to remove mods or verify your game files through steam to remove mods
yes. that will make your game vanilla
That’s normal
so is it removed now
Yes
oh hey rocket
Hey
Do someone know how to upload this skin to hollow knight?
?tag swap
To add Boss/Enemy Skins with Custom Knight
🔹 Open your Custom Knight folder, and then go to this location: \Custom Knight\Swap\Global (If you don't have the Global folder, then create it).
Note: If you want it to be part of a specific skin, then add it to \Custom Knight\Skin\{SKINNAME}\Swap\Global instead.
🔹 Rename the skin file to whatever the Hash name for that Enemy is. For example, a Primal Aspid would be named CFE628DC65E2314F7863030BA662E69CF4F9B604.png, then place it inside that folder.
Getting the Hash names
Enter the room with the thing you want to reskin, then pause the game and go into the Custom Knight menu. Select "Begin Dumping", and then leave the game paused until it says 100% in the top left corner.
Then you can check \Custom Knight\Dump\Global for the images that you dumped, and they will have the Hash name that you need.
XD
ok ok i see
but well, i actually has this hornet skin in the game, but i dont know how to upload more characters xd
U normally can found people to play that on HKMP Discord server.

HKMP (Hollow Knight Multiplayer)
🔹Guide to installing and using: https://geroyuni.notion.site/HKMP-Hollow-Knight-Multiplayer-21723018c74c41d3bc555ee9cfaeb743
🔹 Video guide: https://youtu.be/zKEjNSk8AgM
🔹 How it works:
HKMP puts a copy of each player into each other players world. Enemies have separate health and can be in different places; items/abilities must be collected separately; breakable objects must be broken separately.
A player's attack will happen in each player's world, damaging any enemies/players it comes in contact with. A player is only hurt by the enemies in their own world.
🔹 Public Servers:
For general use (PVP enabled)
IP: hkmp.org
PORT: 26950
Requires HkmpPouch
For exclusively co-op (PVP disabled)
IP: hkmp.org
PORT: 26951
Requires HkmpPouch
For playing Tag
IP: tag.hkmp.org
PORT: 26950
Requires HKMP Tag
Important note: "Invalid Addons" means that you have extra HKMP addons that can't be used on the server. Pouch servers can have any Addons that say that they require Pouch, but you otherwise cannot use others!
Example:
https://youtu.be/XPUB4g67DaM
U can check that at HKMP server
Have a public server for that and some presets to a private server if you want
i want to learn more yea
thanks
What a cool game mode
On Multiplayer-Channel have some gamemodes pinned on messages too

mh, i need to erase some mods right?
U can't use hkmp Pouch at tag server.
what pouch does?
It's a addon who allow you use some other mods on public servers iirc
Public PvP and Coop servers
OK , nice, nice
thanks for the info buddy , and, where can i find that channel?

No tag servers found.
Oh, hmm
In the pins
I always forgot that 🤡
can someone tell me where i can find the dowload to install mods in hollow?
?tag pins
thanks
that's a new one 
acc can someone tell me as well do I need to delete scarab now when I download scarab+
or is scarab+ just scarab and I downloaded it again for no reason 
Scarab+ replaces Scarab so you don't need to keep it after downloading the new version
gg ty, now I will go on my quest to find where the old scarab is
Probably where you last left it
Scarab and Scarab+ don't really get "installed", fwiw.
You don't need to go find them to delete.
Deleting them is just deleting the .exe files
found it literally rn
yeah but I might as well yk
Probably because of my hint
Does the transcendence mod work without doing a randomizer? Or does transcendence only work on randomized runs?
you need to enable in connections and randomize if you want iirc
okay, I'll look into it, thank you!
You can use transcendence on the vanilla game as long as it's a new save

hey, does anyone know if someone's made a dragon skin for customknight?
i'm not sure where would be best to ask this
there was a sea-dragon themed skin but it was challenge only. You can see most of the public skins on the skins list
challenge only?
yeah, i checked it
wanted to ask anyway in case i managed to miss it or maybe one was just being developed
like, what does challenge only mean?
sea-dragon themed skin sounds pretty cool nonetheless
Skurry knight is the closest i think
it means that there's a challenge that must be done for the skin, often for a limited time, and it's not publicly available
oh, i see
uh, is there a way to find out more about this specific one? like if it's still available or whatnot
cause if it's still available i would totally try doing it
depending what it is
who hosted it?
the challenge is no longer available: https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1Jf4y127yK/
Most of the Chinese challenges are hosted on qq & very difficult for those outside of the country to participate
fair point
i guess i will uh, be on the lookout for one in the future

is there a skin where the knight has bigger horns
Skins can't be taller than the default one, so they can't be "the same but bigger horns"
Skins exist that have longer horns, but shrink the body, iirc. Although they aren't of the default Knight

Using Scarab+, you can just search the Boss tag

not many bosses are showing up on scarab+
thats what i get as well

I am smart. Don't gotta go to no Modding-Help discussion thingy. Hell yeah. So anyways, this will be extremely rare, but if anyone ever runs into a problem with their skin randomly switching back to default while they are in normal sprint animation, check to see if it's because you have Sprint Master on because that loads completely different sprites apparently. 👍
All that means is the skin doesn't include a sprint sheet. Which you can check when you download the skin. Some skins are more complete than others.
this isnt modding help discussion tho
and?
Where does screenshot master save screenshots?
I assume that you meant the Screenshot Machine mod?
I would check the mods folder for it, but if it's not there then I'm not sure without checking the code (which I can't do anytime soon)
I found them after searching screenshot in steam folders
Hey, just wondering here (since idk how visible modding-help posts are). I remember back when I started modding like, a year and a half ago that there are a few custom skins that you can only get links to by completing a special challenge. Does anyone have the google docs link for that list?
what is the dev controls mod called?
do you mean debug? or something else?
Ofc!
How do you pull up the debug menu? what button is it i forgot
I havent played in a hot moment
That I do not know. The debug mod should have a github page or a readme that you could check
It doesnt say aaaah
It's F1
Its not working aaa
I loaded my game with it on my screen and its not leaving
Its okay I just went to the mod menu and disabled it
yo
guys
is there a mod or something people use for a controller input hud?

That's an obs thing
I can actually tell you how to do it, I've set it up before
I did it a while ago, might be a bit fuzzy. Simple to do though

- Scarab takes version 1.5 (set beta to "None")

yw, you'll need to get the api back after updating which you can do by reinstalling a mod/enabling the api with scarab+
?tag randoerror
Randomizer 4 isn't working!
🔹 For almost all errors, this is because at least one of your Rando mods is out-of-date (even if Scarab says that they are all up-to-date). You should uninstall all Rando-related mods (including their dependencies), and then install them again. If you're on Windows 🪟 , then make sure you're running your installer as Administrator.
- You can reset your installer in order to force it to need to get latest versions of mods. You can type
?tag resetin this channel to get info on that.
🔹 Some errors can be because of impossible settings. Common issues include using RandoSettingsRandomizer which makes settings that you couldn't normally enable (such as requiring ShadeSkips and Steel Soul mode), or using CursedMode with CursedMasks and skips that require a minimum number of Masks.
🔹 Some errors can be because of Mods that doesn't work well with other mods. Some common issues are MaskMakerNotches and CharmCrab, both of which don't really work with other rando mods.

Hi everyone i have a question can i install mods to my current save file or will i have to start a new one?

you can but it's not required
Hello! Trying randomizer for the first time after maybe a year break from my last playthrough. Mostly looking for a vanilla experience, but curious if there's any QoL or balancing mods that I should at least consider before jumping in.
Vanilla experience with randomizer? Kinda a contradictory statement there
The QoL mod itself is a rando dependency, if you use Scarab+ you can search by tags to see what mods are compatible with rando
You're not wrong. Probably a funny way to phrase that. 😅
I guess I meant more of not adding new content, like charms, bosses, abilities, etc. Thinking like maybe a mod that make less useful charms slightly better, maybe?
generally I'd say "useless" charms are already more useful in rando just because they may be required - as a baldur killer, for Salubra purchases, for lore checks, etc
seems like the mod installer got changed, I'll need to do some cleaning up
Can somebody tell me what is the name of the mod that lets you use binding out of P5? You know, for Bosses in Hall of Gods
Toggleable Bindings
scarab doesn't even launch, guess I'll start by verifying game files
Godseeker Plus might also do it but I'm not sure
if scarab doesn't launch that has absolutely nothing to do with the game

I've been reading the FAQ yeah
I thought I would first need to clean up my game files
old mod API conflicting or something
having an old API wouldn't stop scarab from just opening tho. Scarab doesn't try to install the current API until you install a mod with it
I needed scarab+, now I got all the mods installed, let's see how wild things have become
it was quite the work to go through all the randomizer options, but I got my settings set, and the adventure will begin. So many great new things were added again, and the randomap looks sick!

what are you looking for?
It's usually easier if you explain your issue instead of this
is there any mod that can make benches in p5 actual checkpoints?
You could set up saves states which would act the same
But that clearly sidestep the difficulty of the challenge
p5 is hardest challenge in whole game, and there's nothing for me to do except p5
i tried as much as i can and died on GPZ
i just must do it anyhow
Well since you are looking into installing some mods you can could play them instead of cheating your way to p5
i want to train rather than beat p5
Randomiser are really fun, there are also a couple of mods that add charms or change the way the fight system work (hollow point)
like train bosswave of NKG
Well save states are probably good, or simply the hall of gods
Save states can be set up with debug mod
hall of gods doesn't give experience as wave of 5 really hard bosses coming one after another
i just want to find some way to try bosswaves, not just bosses in HoG
ah yes, Godseeker+
it doesn't add checkpoints in p5 but adds way to train segments of p5
i think it won't be some cheating
I don't find the starbunny skin anywhere. Where is it?
__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):

hi guys, anyone here know the name of these little guys in the code? I have found all the variables related to health in GameManager.instance.playerData.*, however in all my looking through the code I have not found a loop or anything that defines how many of these health icons show up. I can set the health values to whatever and it doesn't respond as expected in half of the cases, and in any amount of health under 10, it does act as I would expect, one per health. basically, anyone know what class/method these guys are controlled by?
what is fsms? I am using dnspy to decompile the assemblies of the game currently
https://radiance.synthagen.net/apidocs/PlayMakerFSM.html this article explains them pretty well
Oh I have that decompiled too, I'll go take a look at it. Thank you!
the tldr is they're flowcharts that control behavior of many things in the game, the health display is one of them
oh this is a more up to date article https://prashantmohta.github.io/ModdingDocs/understanding-fsms.html
btw you might want to join the modding server, there's a lot more people there who can help you with modding related things
invite is pinned
oh wow that's interesting stuff! I have gone about modding it a completely different way o.o I modified the game with bepinex, and am sideloading my own C# compiled into a .dll into the game while it's running.
I didn't even realize this game had much of a modding scene because it isn't very present on nexusMods, but now I understand why. the mods are in a completely different format!
yeah, like in order to find gameobjects, i just use unity's built-in Gameobject.find(), the fsm seems to be an abstraction of unity stuff honestly. this is crazy! haha
yeah we don't use nexus at all so most of the mods there are incompatible with other mods/don't work
oh i didn't know that! is there a different place I should be posting my console commands and bepinex loader then? i see something called scarab launcher?
scarab is a mod installer
ah like my loader i see
dang I wrote a whole modloader for the game thinking there wasn't one cause I couldn't find one haha
rip @ me
rip
yeah I highly recommend joining the modding server
there's generally a lot more resources for doing actual modding there (as opposed to just playing with mods)
Scarab+
This is a new version of Scarab, that fixes many of the problems with the commonly used version, as well as adds additional features (filtering by tags, filtering by new releases, offline mode and allowing you to use shareable download links):

Alright
Mods are pc only
Can someone make a Cowboy skin?
A. Commission an artist to make one (it won’t be cheap)
B. Make it yourself (it will take a lot effort)
Or c. Look for one out there some where
That’s true, although Tmk there isn’t one
The skadi arknight has a cowboy hat. Posted in this channel somewhere above (not on the list yet)
is there a mod that makes teleporting to dreamgates free?
Well dont think so but its not like youre gonna lose any significant amount
is there a mod that highlights missing grubs on the map?
there's a vanilla feature for that.
Don’t start using mods before you’ve finished or even 112%-ed the game imo
I don't think you need to 112% the game before modding, but I do agree, I'd avoid mods if its your first playthrough.
what is it?
collector map
how do i activate it
thanks
can u get mods on mac silicon

how 
Same way you do it on other pc, download scarab+ and use it to install mods, check the pins for the link to the installer and a tutorial (made on windows but that doesn't change much)
Randomizer 4
any other useful ones i need? in case i get stuck or something
RandoMapMod, it tells you where your reachable checks are
thankyou legened
ello, is there a way to turn off the greyed out mod text? or should I just re verify my files and throw everything out?
I did that before but I was wondering if it was possible without having to re-install the mods.
what do you mean by greyed out text
oooo im gettin this immediately
If you verify your files that just removes the api, to re-enable you just have to reinstall one mod (not all of them) to get the api again.
Or use rando+ which has a working api toggle
Or just have multiple installs for modded & vanilla
@weak plinth can i have my saves if i send all this files in new computer?
hello
Hello, I just installed Scarab and have it working, but when I open Hollow Knight the mods dont appear, and neither does the mod settings menu, can someone help me?
Make sure you have the correct path selected & are running scarab as admin. If you need additional help create a ticket in #1057825333841240104
You could also try scarab+ which is often less troublesome
Is the process for installing and setting up Scarab+ the same as regular Scarab?
Yep

anyone knows where mosscharger room is located in game files?
extra points for mosscharger animation as well
if i'm in the wrong channel then please guide me to the right one
If you're trying to re-skin things, then you don't find them "in the game files"
See the pins for more information on how skins work 
found mosscharger
i don't want to reskin i just want to download an image of it
currently trying to find the map/level where mosscharger is at
If you just want the sprites take a look at the pinned drive of sprites, mmc is in the "bosses" folder
You won't find a sprite of the whole arena though, just of the individual elements of it
i guess my best bet would be finding a mod that makes me invisible to take a screenshot of the room
you can do that with debug, it also allows you to zoom out, make the knight's light disappear, disable the vignette effect and hide the hud
(there's also a mod called screenshot machine but I'm not super familiar with this one, although I guess its UI should be more readable than debug's since it should only have screenshot-related options)
rando run is going quite well
I found a logic spot that wasn't accurate on the randomap. In crossroads_7, I got the dream nail and right claw, but the tree reward wouldn't count as reachable, even though I got it easily without hard skips (only simple enemy pogo). Since the unlock was tram pass, now the logic shows me as having done a sequence break, rip
is there a place to say when some logic should be tweaked?
Did you have enemy pogos enabled in your seed settings?
(Even "simple" pogos require having the skips enabled to be in logic)
If it's actually wrong you can report in the rando channel of the speedrun server
how do i hide the player
With debug, look on the binds menu. If you're unable to find it start a support thread in #1057825333841240104
in what tab
Ping isnt necessary.
There are over a dozen pages of binds, I have no idea which one it's on, just look for yourself.
should be called "hide hero"
Once i saw colosseum of fools on yt, but its texture was changed to style or white palace (i dont remember if it added any special trials or no), any idea what is name of that mod?
yeah, I have
speedrunning server then, not channel?
Ping isn't necessary. & yes, server.
although, falnse negatives ae usually a lower priority for fixes than false positives
I'm assuming you're referring to my video of Chaktis' "Palace of Fools"?
https://youtu.be/sEf5_-oOAW8
The Mod is Custom Knight (which you can install with Scarab+)
It's a Swapper Skin Pack for it, which is linked in the video description: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1mE5e809mq1pZUezgKuIXUjcsVhKu3q-O?usp=drive_link
If you've never used Custom Knight, then see the section about it from the Modding Tutorial video linked in the pins 
To use this skin, you download the folders, then either place them all into \Mods\Custom Knight\Swap if you want them to work with all of your skins, or into \Mods\Custom Knight\Skins\SKIN_NAME\Swap if you want it to only apply to a single skin.
hello guys i want enable mod spoilerview when play classic mode, how do i make it work ?
What is "mod spoilerview"? 
If you mean "SpoilerViewerMod", then you can't use it in Classic mode
(And it wouldn't make sense in vanilla, on account of it is showing a Rando Spoilwer log)
yeah SpoilerViewerMod
i search a mod can help me know where charm and item on the map, and i see Spoiler Viewer Mod can do this, but it not work on classic mode
If you're looking for map things, then you should search for "Map" 😉
Then you'd find VanillaMapMod
wow it work thank you very much
are there any mods that make zote alive, i missed him in greenpath
No
You could edit your save, but I'm unsure of what flags you'd need to change
?tag savefiles
Save Files
The save files for Hollow Knight are shared between all installs of the game, and are easily interacted with.
🔹 What do the save files looks like?
- Hollow Knight save files are in the form of
user#.dat, where#is the save slot for the file.. - You can take a file named
user3.datand rename it touser1.datto set it to your first save slot. - You can keep a copy of all of your save files by copy and pasting them into a different folder on your computer.
🔹 Reverting Backup files
- You have save file backups that are called
user#.dat.bak#, where the first#is the save slot, and the second#is the backup number. Typically speaking, you will have your last three backups. - You can set a backup to be the real file by deleting the main file, and then removing the
.bak#part of the backup file.
🔹 Modded save files
- If you are using mods, a modded save may also have a
user#.modded.json(and similarly named backup). Both this file and theuser#.datare part of the save.
🔹 Where are the files?
- On windows, the default path for Save Files is
%appdata%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\ - For other operating systems, type
?tag savesinto chat.
🔹 I need a specific type of save file
- Various save files can be found in the "Saves" section of this page: https://www.speedrun.com/hollowknight/resources
🔹 Editing save files
You can edit various values of save files. Below are different available methods.
- 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. - MoreSaves mod: With the MoreSaves mod installed, you can edit save files from the Main Menu.
- 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.

wow thats bigger than i remember
Thank you!
How were you doing so much damage?
Also do anyone know any white palace themed mods or textures/sprites?
For a new platforming challenge in wp I recommend Test of Teamwork
Oke
Pale king skin
I used debug to give myself more damage lol
are there any tutorials on how to download mods
?tag howtomod
If someone don't know how to get mods, there is actually a great app for modding on pc, it's called Scarab. Fireb0rn made video about that and explain how to using Scarab easly. I recomend that video, maybe it will help you
Gotta say, wasn't sure what Qol did at first since it didn't auto turn on and i forgot about it but wow it loading faster and making cutscenes skip makes grinding absrad not miserable anymore!
nice
For some reason toggleablebinding mod nail binding does not seem to work for me. I mean, the bosses takes the same amount of hits with nail binding and without it. I do something wrong?
- Did you enable the Nail Bind with it?
- If you want help looking into it, then please open a post in #1057825333841240104 , and include the information outlined in #1090079233520451714
Messing around with Scarab on my steam deck, what are the best/most polished charm or ability expansion mods?
