Just imagine default is one of the skins you wanted to install and already did

[stiff reef]

Ok, thanks!

What I was doing wrong is that I had extracted smth online

So it was one folder inside another

So the game wasn't reading it, now I fixed it and it works

Thanks!

[lunar root]

Have fun with your funky new hp bars

oh, you're using Scarab and not Scarab+?

[spare pendant]

whats scarab+

been a while since ive modded the game i just clicked download news version when i tried today

[atomic oriole]

it's less buggy overall so most people recommend using it instead

also it might be issue with game version

[spare pendant]

im on the newest one

[atomic oriole]

https://github.com/TheMulhima/Scarab/releases

see if Scarab+ works

[spare pendant]

alr ill give that try

[vagrant orbit]

Fwiw, it's also linked in the pins with a link that will automatically give someone the correct version for their operating system

[spare pendant]

hmm it didnt work

[vagrant orbit]

Click "launch modded"

[atomic oriole]

if that wont work, try deleting and reinstalling all the mods

[spare pendant]

where would i see that

cuase i could be blind

The Info tab

[spare pendant]

?tag controller

[fathom wigeon]

__Common fixes for controller issues __
🔹 Toggle "Controller Native Input" in the game, found at Main Menu ᐅ Options ᐅ Controller. Restart your game after changing it.
🔹 Unplug your controller before launching the game, then plug it back in on the title screen
🔹 Use Steam's controller settings, enable Steam Inputs from the game properties, and check controller configuration support through Steam's Big Picture mode
🔹 Use a program to map controller inputs to keyboard inputs, either through Steam or a third party program

[tawdry mango]

[viral solar]

Does anybody know what mod gives all the bosses double damage? Is it the QoL or Charm Crab?

[covert estuary]

Probably charm crab if I have to guess

[dry snow]

Not qol for sure

[covert estuary]

Also make sure you aren't just overcharmed

[viral solar]

Is there a way to remove that specific part of charm crab?

[covert estuary]

You don't need to ask the questions in both the modding server and here

[minor hawk]

And generally

(And this should be pinned somewhere lol)

If no one answers it most likely means that no one knows the answer
Either because the question is weirdly phrased or incomplete
Or it is impossible

[covert estuary]

Or it means you have to wait a bit longer than 3 minutes on an answer

[marble cliff]

Hi y'all, does anyone know where I can download the skins that are from here?

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.

I have become the first user of that tag

[lunar root]

[marble cliff]

Sorry to be a bother but my virus blocker doesnt want me do go on the downoad of one of the skins. Is it fine or should I stay away?

[covert estuary]

It is fine, skins do in fact not contain virusses

[minor hawk]

You are asking if what we advised you to download contains a virus
If you trust us and this server (which imo you have no reason not too) then you should trust the files we tell you to download

[covert estuary]

?tag dryya can probably also go

[fathom wigeon]

The AdditionalMaps and essenceAlways mod is currently incompatible with Dryya's Overworld Arena for unknown reasons for Pale Court. Uninstall incompatible mods if you cannot enter Dryya's arena

Benchwarp is Required in Rando

• Benchwarp is logically required and expected to be used
• Officially, logic only knows/expects that at all times, you can warp to where you first started, this is important because:
  • Warping to Start and not moving gives you soul, which may be logically required (most commonly for ||CMound start||)
  • You may be logically required to get checks that you need to warp away from, both due to soft or hard locks without it
  • In the event of Trando, certain transitions such as Dreamnail cutscene actually take you somewhere out-of-logic, and if you get a bench there, then that bench would be out-of-logic to warp back to
  • Flower Quest currently considers you to be able to deliver the flower if either you can get to the grave from Grey Mourner or from the Starting Location. (This may be changed in a future update)

[lunar root]

Based honestly

[covert estuary]

It's never used but not outdated

[minor hawk]

So tag dryya, sourceart probably and hkam should go @fathom sphinx

Hope it is the right one

And yeah 2nd ping

yo a little odd question but wheres the sprinting animation sprites located in the knight sprite sheet (if you know please reply with a ping)

[weak plinth]

Sprint.png

It's on its own sheet

[hollow robin]

oh my god im blind tysm

[vagrant orbit]

I mean, that's because it hasn't come up since a updated it. While it's technically not a new tag, it is one that I just updated a few days ago.

[small dune]

Hello when I started scarab this happened

[atomic oriole]

what happens when you click ok?

if it closes, I recommend you simply reinstall scarab+

unless you wanna manually fix the path in setting file

[small dune]

It closes and adds a ModInstaller_Error thing

[small dune]

I did that but it still doesn't work

[atomic oriole]

hm

wait give me a moment

[small dune]

I deleted hollow knight and then installed it because I had a problem in steam and then scarab won't open now

[atomic oriole]

ok so do you know how to find your hollow knight install folder?

[small dune]

Uhh

I'm not sure what that is..

[atomic oriole]

are you using steam?

[small dune]

Yes

[atomic oriole]

ok then go to library -> Hollow Knight -> gear icon -> Manage -> Browse Local Files

[small dune]

Oh alright one moment

[atomic oriole]

it should look like this

[small dune]

Yeah that's what it shows

[atomic oriole]

ok cool

now open hollow knight data -> managed

and copy its path from the top bar

[small dune]

It shows all these folders

[atomic oriole]

yeah just copy the folder's path

click on this

[small dune]

The managed folder?

[atomic oriole]

yes

[small dune]

Alright I copied address

[atomic oriole]

ok now go to (user) / AppData / Roaming / HKModInstaller

[small dune]

Uhh how do I do that

[atomic oriole]

you should have a directory with your windows user name

ok well now I think that first part might have been redundant

but still, you gotta find that folder

and delete it

then open scarab and it should repick the path

[small dune]

What

[small dune]

Sorry I kinda got lost here

[atomic oriole]

ok so open "This PC" or "This Computer" or whatever this thing is called for you

[small dune]

So there's 2 (user names) one in d8sk c and one in e

The c is empty

[atomic oriole]

ok well check the one which has AppData folder in it

[small dune]

Uh none

[small dune]

Sry I meant to reply to this

[atomic oriole]

well I guess just search "HKModInstaller"

[small dune]

Uh nothing shows up

[atomic oriole]

well that's weird

are you using windows 10?

or 11

[small dune]

10

[atomic oriole]

in the file browser select Desktop and then search

wait nvm

[coral stirrup]

rice

[atomic oriole]

for me it's C://my username/AppData/Roaming/HKModInstaller

you sure you don't have that?

[small dune]

I search on the search bar the name of my account but it's only those two files

One with nothing

And the second is this

[atomic oriole]

uh

[atomic oriole]

what about D://

can I see it?

[small dune]

There's only C and E

[small dune]

Oh

D has nothing to do with steam, it has photos and stuff

It also has the games folder which has hollow knight

And scarab

[atomic oriole]

there's no AppData folder in there?

can you search it?

[small dune]

Do u mean the %appdata% thing?

[atomic oriole]

yes

this

[small dune]

Yes I have it

[atomic oriole]

open it

[covert estuary]

To get to appdata, do Win + R and type in %appdata%

[atomic oriole]

or you could just do that

[small dune]

Oh I found the HKModInstaller

[atomic oriole]

great

delete it

[small dune]

Oh

Ok done

[atomic oriole]

mfw we wasted 10 minutes because I couldnt remember that

[atomic oriole]

ok now open scarab

it should work

[small dune]

O yes it works!

Damn that took longer than it should

Hehe sry for the trouble

[atomic oriole]

[covert estuary]

?tag reset

[fathom wigeon]

Windows .bats to reset things

To use these scripts:

1. Download the file
2. Move the file to your Desktop
3. Double-Click the file

• [Reset all Mod Installers](<https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/879138066961424405/1039418423622520842/HKModInstaller_Reset.bat)
• Reset all Global Settings files
• Force Scarab Updates

Scarab+ reset links

These work on all platforms, as long as you're using Scarab+

• Reset Memory
• Force Mods to Update

[covert estuary]

That would've also worked

[small dune]

I have to update all those mods again..

[atomic oriole]

ah right it's a scarab issue, it forgets that the mods are up to date

if you want you can pull the HKModInstaller/InstalledMods.json file out of trashcan

and put it back in the new HKModInstaller folder

[small dune]

O

Alright thanks alot

[atomic oriole]

yw

[small dune]

Oh one more thing

In pale court when I delete scarab and install it again

My whole progress in it is removed

[atomic oriole]

oh that's weird

[small dune]

Like I beat all of the knights in ascended and some on radiant

[covert estuary]

It shouldn't

[atomic oriole]

you sure the pale court mod is enabled?

[small dune]

And now the statues aren't even there and I have to re visit the areas in the map

[small dune]

Yeah

[atomic oriole]

I think it's because you reinstalled hollow knight

so the modded saves might have been lost

[covert estuary]

Did you go into the save without pale court being enabled?

[small dune]

Nop last time I didn't

[atomic oriole]

well idk what caused it

[small dune]

I had to re do my progress once and now it's deleted again

[atomic oriole]

you can get your progress back if you just use debug mod to cheese your way through

[small dune]

No

I did but scarab itself was removed

[atomic oriole]

but ig make backups of your saves

[small dune]

Oh I didn't think about that

[small dune]

Yeah I started doing that but the last backup was before I radianted half of them

[fierce flame]

i feel like most people that ask for the grub skin to be finished just want the up and down slash to be done

and i certainly ain’t artistic enough to see how a grub could do those animations

[red plinth]

This skin brings me as much pain as it does joy.

[brittle bloom]

I can assure you it looks exceptionally worth it. So clean, really looking forward to it!

[fathom wigeon]

Hollow Knight Crashes upon opening after installing a mod ⚠️

This error can happen for a number of reasons. Read through all of the common reasons below to see which might apply to you.

• Your game patch doesn't match the installer you used

  • Modding is currently done on patch 1.5.78+, and this is what all current installers require. If you're on Steam, then make sure you are not accidentally using a Beta patch (Beta should be set to "None")
  • "Mod Installer" ( Zote) and Mod Installer 2 are made for version 1.4.3.2, and should no longer be used. If you watched or read something that said to use these, then it is outdated information.
  • There aren't installers for other patches, like 1.2.2.1. If you are looking for speedrunning mod help, then type ?tag 1221 into chat for more information.

• Something didn't install correctly

  • Right-Click the installer, and select "Run as Administrator"
  • Ensure that the installer is not still in a .zip file (if you downloaded it as a .zip, then you'll need to Extract the files from it)
  • Make sure that you moved the Installer file(s) out of your Downloads folder

• Your game is cracked / pirated

  • Piracy is not supported in most communities for games, and discussing it is against Discord Community Guidelines. Mods are not considered compatible with pirated copies, and you will not get troubleshooting support in any of the main servers for them.
  • Modding is only supported on the official computer versions from Steam, GoG, or Xbox Games.
  • If you do not have a supported version, then please get it and then you can get support with modding. Asking for assistance with unsupported versions may result in moderation action.
  • Hollow Knight goes on sale regularly, and you can keep an eye on this website for when it is: https://isthereanydeal.com/game/hollowknight/

Dyno is quite dead

Save Files

• 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.dat and rename it to user1.dat to 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 the user#.dat are 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 saves into 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.

  • MoreSaves mod: With the MoreSaves mod installed, you can edit save files from the Menu, by going to Options > Mods > MoreSaves.
  • 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.
  • 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.

[vagrant orbit]

Is there a specific song that plays while gathering essense?

I assumed that just the normal area music played

[dry snow]

i think so

[worldly creek]

anybody have the problem of Pale Court bosses not showing up in their arenas?

[dry snow]

?tag palecourt

[fathom wigeon]

Starting Pale Court:

• Install it using Scarab+
• You must have ||All dreamers||
• You must have ||defeated a specific boss:|| ||White Defender||
• Watch the Launch Trailer if you want directions where to go next.

Known problems with Pale Court

• MAKE SURE YOU ARE USING THE LATEST UPDATED VERSION
• AdditionalMaps, Randomizer 4, Extra MenuBackgrounds, EssenceAlways (and any mod that attempts to force Essence drops) aren't compatible, and will prevent you from being able to enter fights.
• Using a BenchWarp Deployed Bench in new areas will break the file
  • If you accidentally do this, then close the game, disable Benchwarp, then open the file again. Get off the bench you spawn at, and sit down again. Then save+quit, and you should be able to enable Benchwarp again.
  • Alternatively, you can open your user#.modded.json for that file, and edit "atDeployedBench": true, -> "atDeployedBench": false, . You can type ?tag savefiles for more information.
• HK Vocalized may prevent you from accessing fights
  • (This appears to not be consistently reproducible, but if you can't enter fights, then try disabling it)
• Skill Upgrades will prevent Charms from working correctly
• Hollow Point will not work if Pale Court is installed
• Any mod that adds new Charms may prevent Charms from working.

If you're having other issues, then please read #1090079233520451714 and create a #1057825333841240104 post with the requested info and any details. Be aware that Pale Court was not designed to be compatible with other mods, and you will usually need to choose between using either Pale Court or the other mod(s).

what does HKMP stand for?

but multiplayer is only one word tho

HKM doesn’t exactly have a ring to it

also other games also use MP for multiplayer

[dry snow]

yo annoying know the secret achievements for hallownest vocalized?

[minor hawk]

Aren’t there more than one ? I know that one of them has something to do with ||a grub||

[vagrant orbit]

I assume one is tied to ||Pale Lurker||, specifically ||giving her a flower||

[atomic oriole]

the P in HKMP stands for Pee

[dry snow]

I said achivements

||I know one is the unhappy grub and the other one flower to pale lurker, idk but the other 3 tho||

[stiff reef]

Hey, I am not rly using a lot of mods, I am using a More Saves mod, a Hp bar mod, a custom skins mod and hallownest vocalized

Then I went to colosseum and found the one guy who flees from us behind the colosseum and drops a key

[lunar root]

Vocalized.

Vocalized does that

[stiff reef]

So... how do I get the key now

It was really interesting but I need the key

[lunar root]

It tells you to gove a flower right?

[stiff reef]

No, it told "give an item", but apparently I didn't have it because it disappeared, I tried going down there where there usually is a king idol but didn't find them either

Also does Vocalized makes us unable to enter a colosseum trial? It keeps locking me

[lunar root]

Does he appear again after reentering

[stiff reef]

Let me try

Yes

They do

Well, thanks

[lunar root]

Yeah try either disabling hk vocalized for the key or looking for the flower

[stiff reef]

So what do I need to do for the game to not soft lock me in the entrance tunnel of the arena

Like, if I don't disable it

[lunar root]

Well im not that good at recent mods, but are you like stuck below the ground or simply at the start of the hallway?

I know another thing does that, but im still unsure what

If thats the case you could use debug and noclip out

[stiff reef]

Ik when the you put your mark and enter the big gate?

Then there is a tunnel until you get to the arena

[lunar root]

Yeah its what im saying then

[stiff reef]

I assumed debug would be the way

Thanks again

[lunar root]

And have fun

[stiff reef]

Rly weird, I wonder if it is because of the skins I am using

Radiance skin changes dialogues

[stiff reef]

Thanks, you too!

[lunar root]

Ive also wondered if it was custom knight but for different reasons, i dont think text or anything from swap would cause that

<@&328354344313421825> My friend is trying to get mods working through scarab and satchel is installed and we have everything looking good but when we launch the game and go to options then the mod menu its just blank with no mods even though we have them installed

[lunar root]

Ok well first modding staff isnt really a support role you ping for assistance

Not every mod has an options tab

Which mods do they have on?

[languid turtle]

okay now ive encountered a new problem i cant access menu or inventory using controller :/

[vagrant orbit]

?tag controller

[fathom wigeon]

Common fixes for controller issues

Try these separately first, but if they don't work, then you may need to try a combination of them.

• Use Steam's controller settings, enable Steam Inputs from the game properties, and check controller configuration support through Steam's Big Picture mode
• Toggle "Controller Native Input" in the game, found at Main Menu ᐅ Options ᐅ Controller. Restart your game after changing it.
• Unplug your controller before launching the game, then plug it back in on the title screen.
• Use a program to map controller inputs to keyboard inputs, either through Steam or a third party program
  • This is usually only necessary for unusual controllers, or when the above options don't work.
    Visual examples for Steam settings:

Hey guys i have the Debugmod and for some reason each time i press the left key the game freezes and a cursor apear, what should i do to to bring it back to normal

[steel hill]

there is a mod to spawn mobs

like any mob

[steel hill]

[uncut wolf]

hey a friend is trying to play the inferno king grimm mod but after entering the arena he doesnt spawn

any idea what the issue is

[vague mango]

This keeps happening to my screen when I enter the Soul Master room, I have Pale Court installed and that's it. Any idea why?

[lunar root]

I actually had this problem a few days ago, what youll want to do is open steam and go into the games properties

Scrolling a little bit down there you can see an empty space where you can write stuff

Aka the steam launch settings

Put -force-opengl in there

[covert estuary]

I've seen that command so many times, but what does it actually do?

[lunar root]

It forces opengl

[covert estuary]

Like it seems to be a 'solve all' command

[lunar root]

[covert estuary]

I mean, why does opengl solve everything

[lunar root]

Idk im not modding staff

[vague mango]

Thanks, it also fixed when I change resolution mid game for some reason

[errant lance]

it's a fairly robust graphics API that interfaces well with a lot of applications. I'm not sure what hk uses as default but I assume directx

[covert estuary]

I see

But then why does it also solve none graphic problems?

[lunar root]

?tag cheevo

[fathom wigeon]

Modding and Achievements

• Mods do not normally prevent you from getting Achievements.
  • If you want to prevent them, you can use the Disable Achievements mod.
  • If a mod changes/removes something that's part of an achievement trigger, then you won't get that achievement.
• In many cases, achievements are still earned, but the pop-ups do not come up when modding.
• In some rare cases, players report not getting achievements when modding. While this is not normal, it should be mentioned that it can happen.
  • This is often tied to them doing something like skipping something with QoL (such as credits), and thus skipping the actual trigger for the Achievement.

Custom Knight

This is the mod for reskinning The Knight and other things in the game

Resources

• Comprehensive Skin Doc by ColetteMSLP
  • [Known Skins not on the Doc yet](#modding-discussion message)
• Video Tutorial 🎦 by fireb0rn
• [How to use Enemy/Boss Skins](#modding-discussion message)

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 create a post in #1057825333841240104 for this
You must post a screenshot that shows:

• Where you installed the skin
• With the directory bar visible
• With the skin images themselves visible
• Example screenshots (yours should look like this):

[lunar root]

Uh send a screenshot like the text says

[lunar root]

Ok well thats the problem you have subfolders

When you open it the images should directly appear, instead 3 new folders appear

Try moving all the images into this folder

[molten sundial]

like so?

If that are all the images in the other folder yeah

[inner harness]

does randomizer stop you from getting 112%?

[lucid thicket]

The % shown in rando is the % of checks you obtained, so 100% is the max but you can still get everything required for the 112% of the vanilla game

[dense wigeon]

You can use Fstats to see the vanilla %

It is if you select mods that do that, yes. Notably HKMP game-mode ones, such as Tag do this.

Hello! Does anybody know of a way to enable using the mouse to navigate the inventory, charm menu, and so on?

There's no way to do that as far as I know. If the mouse has like a scroll wheel that might be able to be bound to work for it, in steam controller settings?

How it works

HKMP puts a copy of each player into each other players world.
Enemies have separate health and will usually be in different places; Items/abilities must be collected separately; and Breakable objects must be broken by each player. Player attacks 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. This page explains how you can use other mods and addons to synchronize some aspects, and improve your experience.

Public Servers:

General use (PVP enabled)

 PORT:  26950

 PORT:  26951

```ml
Infection Tag

Requires HKMP Tag and at least three players```
*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!*

hello how do u add emotes for the emotes mod cuz i didnt find any?

[vagrant orbit]

You just open the folder for it up, then add images to it (there should be some by default?).

Note that you and whoever you're playing with will need the images to have the same name

[red plinth]

I don't think it comes with any. I don't remember there being any when I downloaded it to test the emote I made.

i have to beat HN to mod؟

[lunar root]

No but it heavily recommended since mods could easily run the experience

In addition many mods are not going to make sense if you haven't done most/all of the base game

[tulip oxide]

the Oro and Mato fights dont work for me since I uninstalled the Brothers of battle mod

like it doesnt even take me to a fight

[dense wigeon]

Is that one that changes the statue for the fight? If so reinstall it & set the statue back to default before uninstalling

okay I'll try that

it truly is a mystery where ||Carmen Sandiego|| scarab+ went

New update of Lumafly Installer (previously known as Scarab+) has released (v3.0.0.0)

• Modpacks - create mod presets to quickly switch between them and share them.
• Rebrand and UI overhaul
• Improve mod download speed
• Add button to view mod readmes in app
• Improve tag search options (allow exclusion and add tag for untagged mods)

• @limebanana - Lumafly banner

so that people who aren't in the modding disc can still see news

Cuz I saw some videos about it

[atomic oriole]

nope

definitely not without some extemely hacky solution

[timid steeple]

I saw a vid which said u can download mods onto the Switch memory thingy

[atomic oriole]

in hollow knight?

[vagrant orbit]

• you can mod switches
• you cannot use HK mods on switch, as they aren't compatible at all

[atomic oriole]

I doubt it, the mods aren't compiled for switch

maybe in other games

[timid steeple]

• technically, you can replace skin asset files (so you can reskin the knight). It is pretty complicated though, and you'll find a lot of tools and videos online on how to do it
