Custom Knight

This is the mod for reskinning things in the game

Resources

Common issues

  • If the Skin List is covering up other mods, you can toggle it with Del. You can edit this Keybind in the Custom Knight menu.
  • If your skin isn't working, go to Options > Mods > Custom Knight > Advanced > Fix My Skins. After this, you may need to use the Reload option in the previous menu.
    • Upgraded Dream Shield (UDS) breaks Custom Knight’s launching correctly the first time. To use both mods at the same time, you must disable UDS, open a save with only Custom Knight and wait until it stops lagging. You can then close the game and enable UDS again.
  • If you see lots of White Boxes ◻️, restart your game. You may also need to try applying skins in a small/empty room, like a stag station.
  • Make sure that you apply skins from the Pause Menu when you have your save file loaded. Skins applied from the Main Menu will only be used for new files.

Troubleshooting

If your problem isn't fixed from the Common Issues section above, then please create a post in #1057825333841240104 with the following
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):

ModLog

"ModLog.txt" can be found in the same folder as your save files (you can drag and drop the file into discord)

  • Open Modlog with Lumafly (you should be able to copy and paste it into Discord)
  • Windows: %APPDATA%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\
  • MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/unity.Team Cherry.Hollow Knight/
  • Linux: ~/.config/unity3d/Team Cherry/Hollow Knight/
    Note: some mod installers such as Lumafly have an Open saves folder button which allows you to find the ModLog easily. Otherwise, follow the steps below:

To get the ModLog on Windows:

  1. Press + R
  • Note: is the Windows button, in between Ctrl and Alt on your keyboard
  1. Copy and paste this into it %appdata%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight and hit "OK".
  2. ModLog.txt is in this folder.

To get the ModLog on MacOS:

  1. From the Finder, click "Go" in the menu at the top of the screen and select "Go to folder".
  2. Copy and paste this into it ~/Library/Application Support/unity.Team Cherry.Hollow Knight/ and press enter.
  3. ModLog.txt is in this folder.

Hello, I'm fairly recent join
I'm in a project of another game that I need to reference HK for

How do I download Debug Mod / whichever mod I can enable hitboxes with

#

I have played the game before, but I need modding help

minor hawk
#
  • get lumafly from the pins
  • from that software get debugmod
  • press f1 and look through the various options until you find hitboxes

#

Does anyone know what all the different variants for HK on bingosync are? (LIke normal - CN, or cratthew?) (Just on the website)

minor hawk
#

those basically just are sets of different goals, usually people use 'normal' and that one has been changed up a bit over the years to remove problematic goals, cratthew goals are other goals which iirc tend to be longer/harder and so on for all the different settings

#

there is probably a way to find the complete list of goals for all those goal banks somewhere

#

there is a desktop config file in there maybe it was that its hidden

#

that was also present in 1.0

lucid thicket
#

Oh indeed it's there, but that's (probably) not the problem since the folder it couldn't access was Charms

#

which I assume is supposed to be generated by CK if it doesn't exist? Given that it's there in my other skins even if they don't change charms

#

So it probably failed to generate for some reason, and then it expected to find it but couldn't

#

Interesting, for some reason the entire folder of this skin is read only (unless changed with admin perms of course) which is why the issue occurred. No idea why that was the case, I wonder if my computer did things differently than usual with downloaded files or if this is the case for everyone

palehmm i mean i did it by phone so i don’t even think i could set it to that

Then either Scarab did Scarab stuff and you should switch to Lumafly, or you got 2 installs and Scarab found the wrong one (but you should get Luma either way). Try Lumafly & its "launch modded game" button, if that doesn't work then we'll switch to #1057825333841240104 and continue there

Depends on the mod. Always make a backup if you're unsure or worried

Save Files

What do save files looks like?

  • Each Hollow Knight save file is a user#.dat where # is the save slot for the file
  • You can rename user3.dat 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 Backups

  • Automatic backups are called user#.dat.bak#, where the first # is the save slot, and the second # is the backup number. You will usually have your last three backups
  • You restore a backup by deleting the main file, and then removing the .bak# part of the backup version

Modded Saves

  • A modded save may also have a user#.modded.json (and similarly named backup). 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\
    • You should just copy and paste that path directly into the File Explorer path bar at the top.
  • For other operating systems (and Xbox Games), type ?tag saves into chat

I need a specific type of save file

Editing save files

  • MoreSaves: With the MoreSaves mod installed, you can edit save files from the Menu, by going to Options > Mods > MoreSaves
  • QoL: Opening a save with QOL installed will create 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

HKMP (Hollow Knight Multiplayer)

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.

Starting Pale Court

  • Install it using Lumafly
  • You must have ||All dreamers||
  • You must have ||defeated a specific boss:|| ||White Defender||
  • You must then find the location that connects each Knight to the world. You can watch the Launch Trailer if you want directions where to go.

Known problems with Pale Court

  • HKTool and WeaverCore are not compatible with Pale Court (or each other)
  • AdditionalMaps, 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 savefaq 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).

Custom Knight

This is the mod for reskinning things in the game

Resources

Common issues

  • If the Skin List is covering up other mods, you can toggle it with Del. You can edit this Keybind in the Custom Knight menu.
  • If your skin isn't working, go to Options > Mods > Custom Knight > Advanced > Fix My Skins. After this, you may need to use the Reload option in the previous menu.
    • Upgraded Dream Shield (UDS) breaks Custom Knight’s launching correctly the first time. To use both mods at the same time, you must disable UDS, open a save with only Custom Knight and wait until it stops lagging. You can then close the game and enable UDS again.
  • If you see lots of White Boxes ◻️, restart your game. You may also need to try applying skins in a small/empty room, like a stag station.
  • Make sure that you apply skins from the Pause Menu when you have your save file loaded. Skins applied from the Main Menu will only be used for new files.

Troubleshooting

If your problem isn't fixed from the Common Issues section above, then please create a post in #1057825333841240104 with the following
You must post a screenshot that shows:

Many youtubers were forced by Youtube to remove most links in their videos' descriptions to avoid them being sort of flagged, which is most likely what happened there. As Azerod said you'll find resources for 1.4 modding in the last pin of this channel

Or can you help me find? I cant

I need this mod 😦

lucid thicket
#

Interesting, it doesn't seem to be on 1.4 modlinks, which explains why Fire originally linked it in the description. I'll see what I can find

#

If the in-game version number is accurate he's using the 0.31 version, but you can always test a more recent one, all of them seem to be for 1.4

#

For the installer you can use what's linked in the pinned message I was referring to earlier

Save Files

What do save files looks like?

  • Each Hollow Knight save file is a user#.dat where # is the save slot for the file
  • You can rename user3.dat 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 Backups

  • Automatic backups are called user#.dat.bak#, where the first # is the save slot, and the second # is the backup number. You will usually have your last three backups
  • You restore a backup by deleting the main file, and then removing the .bak# part of the backup version

Modded Saves

  • A modded save may also have a user#.modded.json (and similarly named backup). 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\
    • You should just copy and paste that path directly into the File Explorer path bar at the top.
  • For other operating systems (and Xbox Games), type ?tag saves into chat

I need a specific type of save file

Editing save files

  • MoreSaves: With the MoreSaves mod installed, you can edit save files from the Menu, by going to Options > Mods > MoreSaves
  • QoL: Opening a save with QOL installed will create 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

You would just CTRL + F "grimmchild" in the document

And everything else from the default skin..right?

You dont' need to include Default things

Default things are used by default, and then anything that is in a skin file gets used to replace the default version of that sheet

Question regarding Lumafly: So, I just finished my first blind playthrough of HK, and intending to start a new save file with mods that I've downloaded. Do I click on the 'Launch modded game' on the application then proceed to start a new file? Another question is if I select my first and original vanilla file with the mode on, will it be corrupted (not literally) by the mods?

unique kindle
#

For the first question, yes.

For the second question, nothing will happen as long as you don't open it with mods enabled. In that case, it depends on the mod. Most are harmless, but a few might have an impact to some degree. Some mods are meant to be used on existing saves, others are meant to be used on new saves.

Hi everyone!

As part of our engineering degree, my partner @pulsar lark and I developed an Inverse Dynamic Model for Action Recognition designed for Hollow Knight.

This project would not have been possible without the invaluable support and insights provided by members of this server. As a way of expressing our gratitude, we are excited to share the results with the community.

We’ve uploaded a YouTube video showcasing how the model recognizes actions from random gameplay. If you’re interested, feel free to check it out and see the model in action!

If anyone is curious about the project or has any questions, don’t hesitate to send me a direct message. I’d be happy to discuss the model further or provide additional details.

Thank you to the Hollow Knight community for your incredible support and encouragement throughout this journey!

Our passion for this game keeps growing, and we’re thrilled to be part of such an amazing community.

Windows won't let me open the Mod Installer

  • If there's a Pop Up that says "Windows Protected your PC", then click "More Info" (on the left), and then a "Run Anyway" button will appear to click.
    • This happens because Windows automatically blocks apps that don't pay Microsoft and go through the process to have their app Verified by Windows.

Installer vanishes after downloading / loads a blank screen

This is commonly because one or more issues:

  • The installer was left in a .zip or in the Download folder. (It's recommended to put it on your Desktop or on the same Harddrive as your game installation)
  • The installer may need to be run as Administrator (Right-Click it, and select "Run as Administrator")
  • The installer is being blocked / removed by built-in security software, such as Windows Defender
  • The installer is being blocked / removed by third-party security software (Avast / Norton / MacAfee / etc)
    • If you are not sure how to create Exceptions in your Security software for programs, then you can see this guide or you may need to google how to do it for the software that you use.

Editing save files

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

  • MoreSaves Mod | Install
  • With the MoreSaves mod installed, you can edit save files from the in-game Menu. Either from the Main Menu or Pause Menu, go to Options > Mods > MoreSaves to edit save files in game.
  • QoL mod | Install
    • If you open a save file with QoL installed, you'll have an extra file called user#.json (where # is the file number), 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 | Install
    • 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
    • Find the Save File, upload it to the website, and make the edits. It will Download as save file for Slot 1, so rename it if needed. If you do not know where your saves are located, type ?tag saves for more information

Windows won't let me open the Mod Installer

  • If there's a Pop Up that says "Windows Protected your PC", then click "More Info" (on the left), and then a "Run Anyway" button will appear to click.
    • This happens because Windows automatically blocks apps that don't pay Microsoft and go through the process to have their app Verified by Windows.

Installer vanishes after downloading / loads a blank screen

This is commonly because one or more issues:

  • The installer was left in a .zip or in the Download folder. (It's recommended to put it on your Desktop or on the same Harddrive as your game installation)
  • The installer may need to be run as Administrator (Right-Click it, and select "Run as Administrator")
  • The installer is being blocked / removed by built-in security software, such as Windows Defender
  • The installer is being blocked / removed by third-party security software (Avast / Norton / MacAfee / etc)
    • If you are not sure how to create Exceptions in your Security software for programs, then you can see this guide or you may need to google how to do it for the software that you use.

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.
    • Some mods that rely on SFCore such as Hallownest Vocalized can sometimes prevent achievements from working.

Hollow Point FAQ | Install | ReadMe

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.
  • Hollow Point is not compatible with some other mods, such as Pale Court.
  • Despite what the ReadMe says, you do not need ModCommon for it

Healing isn't working!

  • If you are playing with Hollow Point Enabled, then read the ReadMe (linked at the top of this post) to learn how healing and using spells works.
  • If you've Disabled Hollow Point, and healing isn't working:

Not working with Custom Knight skins!

This is a known issue, and Custom Knight is not considered compatible with HP.

hey guys, i'm about to start AllHollownestEnhanced world and i wanna know, is there any chance it gets an update?

It's a rather new mod, so it's possible, but not certain. I didn't see bug reports on it though.

Modding "Xbox Games" versions (Gamepass / Microsoft's App Store):

Note: this is for Desktop/Laptop. You cannot mod the game on Xbox consoles

  • Use Lumafly (it has additional support for this version that other installers currently don't have)
  • Right-Click the Lumafly.exe and select "Run as Administrator"
    • It should automatically find the install and ask if it's correct. If it doesn't find it, then you will need to link it to the Hollow Knight.exe found in C:\XboxGames\Hollow Knight\Content by default.
  • After installing / installing any mods, wait about a minute before launching the game (this is because Windows does a weird thing for Xbox Games things, and it makes copies of files).
    If you have further issues, then please see #"Support FAQ - Read before posting!" and create a #1057825333841240104 post if needed.

Important paths

  • Save Files: %AppData%\..\Local\Packages\
    • Find a folder in here with Team Cherry in the name.
  • Game Files: C:\XboxGames\Hollow Knight\Content\
  • Mod Files: C:\XboxGames\Hollow Knight\Content\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\Mods\
  • Note: Microsoft manages this install weirdly and syncs its files to inaccessible folders, so changes may need a few minutes to take effect and bugs with installing or uninstalling mods can occur.

guys i cant hear game music even tho i have it set on max, could a mod be causing this?

minor hawk
#

Maybe, it could also be that your PC is sending the sound to another peripheral (like a plugged controller) or that you set the sound to zero in the sound mixer

#

So 1) can you hear any kind of sound from your PC ?
2) take a peak at the sound mixer

doe anyone know of any good tutorials or guides for making a custom knight skin?

I have the mod, but i wanted to try making my own skin for it

thanks, that helps a lot

#

i realized how sarcastic that sounded, i was being genuine, sorry

lime girder
#

i dont like pale court

#

the music is lame and the isma fight is the laggiest thing in all of hollow knight

dense wigeon
#

Mad at a mod because you have a bad pc is certainly a take zote

lime girder
#

because all unoptimized things are to be ignored because "get better pc"

#

and the fight feels extremely lackluster in terms of sounds

#

the only sounds i'm hearing from the boss are the exact same 3 voice lines

#

im pondering extra hard here
its already a miracle the mod came out and is relatively glitchless/bugless

Is there a way to use Scarab with mods from Nexus? I tried but the ones from Nexus didn't work, and every video I find about modding only talks about Scarab

Nexus mostly only has outdated mods from what I know
Everything which is newer than 4+ year old is on lumafly (or scarab)

Custom Knight

This is the mod for reskinning things in the game

Resources

Common issues

  • If the Skin List is covering up other mods, you can toggle it with Del. You can edit this Keybind in the Custom Knight menu.
  • If your skin isn't working, go to Options > Mods > Custom Knight > Advanced > Fix My Skins. After this, you may need to use the Reload option in the previous menu.
    • Upgraded Dream Shield (UDS) breaks Custom Knight’s launching correctly the first time. To use both mods at the same time, you must disable UDS, open a save with only Custom Knight and wait until it stops lagging. You can then close the game and enable UDS again.
  • If you see lots of White Boxes ◻️, restart your game. You may also need to try applying skins in a small/empty room, like a stag station.
  • Make sure that you apply skins from the Pause Menu when you have your save file loaded. Skins applied from the Main Menu will only be used for new files.

Do any of these mods skip the dreamer dream nail cutscene? Someone in hk help is wondeirnf

dense wigeon
#

The usual culprit for skipping things is QoL, which I don't see

fair bridge
#

I don’t know any way to not experience the cutscene other than mods

#

I know the TAS can skip part of it but the player claims they didn’t get any cutscene

So I don’t really know

Ping isn't needed,thanks.Mod installers don't change how the mods work

HKMP (Hollow Knight Multiplayer)

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)
 IP:    hkmp.org
 PORT:  26950
Requires HkmpPouch```
```ml
Co-op (PVP disabled)
 IP:    hkmp.org
 PORT:  26951
Requires HkmpPouch```
```ml
Infection Tag
 IP:    tag.hkmp.org
 PORT:  26950
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!*

Hey all! I just put mods on my hollowkigj last night, was enjoying the new play through, I took a break and my dog randomly pressed buttons on my controller, and now my character moves the opposite direction! For example, if I move to go left, my character moves right! I do have the mirror mod on, which is the only thing I can think of. Also I have it installed on a Mac. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
