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):
Hey guys, I watched multiple videos about Pantheon of Nightmares and every single video has different obstacles, why is that 
It does?
Well the obstacles are from decoration master mod,it could be that people modified them for some reason
what a weird thing to spam in every channel
I assume the repo does not lead to a very nice program to download
There are other boss mods, but nothing on the level of Palw Court
is there a custom skin for the knight to have clown hair and clown nose? i have been searching for one and i don't find it anywhere
im trying to use save states to my files with debug on 1.2.2.1 but whenever i do it my options for which number to save it to never appear, same with loading them
first image is mine, second is what its supposed to look like
kinda got this working
where can I download mod installer 2?
Not really sure, but I do know it's outdated and meant to use only for downpatching
If you want to use current mods use Lumafly instead
I have version1.4.3.2
Is there a specific reason you're using that version? All mods released after 2021 only work on current patch
I'm trying to have mods on 1.4.3.2

Does anyone know if Exempt-Medic is still very active and working on mods? I like Charm Overhaul quite a bit and it'd be cool to get even more charm interactions
from what ive seen they mostly manage the wiki nowadays
you can find them in the wikis server where they are active there
Oh neat
Alive and kicking but afaik they are not working on the mod anymore
I figured
Idk how it isn't base game but I need Thorns of Agony and Grubsong to interact on a very visceral level
what option is it?
how do I create a ticket for support
Pale Court mod says "FAILED TO LOAD! Check ModLog.txt"
but all of the other mods work

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
- get lumafly from the pins
- from that software get debugmod
- press f1 and look through the various options until you find hitboxes
if you ever have troubles on the installation you can watch the video linked in the pins it is up to date (besides the fact that lumafly is the newer mod installer)
Does anyone know what all the different variants for HK on bingosync are? (LIke normal - CN, or cratthew?) (Just on the website)
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
https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1KL62YDESi/? (don quixote skin)
(this is more or less just an alt skin added sit atlas and some changes to the main knight sheet like thorns
@ Colette
hopefully i did this right i had to upload them by phone since my laptop is in for repairs
Hope you get your laptop back soon
(I'm also on mobile right now but can confirm if they're OK later from pc
What's the difference between scarab and lumfly?- Do I just grab both or?-
Lumafly has a friendlier UI, some extra functions and is actively maintained
I haven't actually unzipped the files yet but I got them downloaded & everything looks good 👍
https://raymanpc.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=74880 there also this thing i found haven’t checked if the file is safe though
or if its even downloadable
So I just wanted to try out the skin and my Custom Knight did something weird, and given what the error looks like I don't think that's the skin's fault. Basically I got the access to the path to a folder in the new skins files is denied except that the folder literally doesn't exist 
Will look into that, that's an interesting issue for sure
there is a desktop config file in there maybe it was that its hidden
that was also present in 1.0
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
i mean i did it by phone so i don’t even think i could set it to that
the other one is fine right? (don quixote skin)
Testing it right now, it doesn't have the issue but it got an extra folder
Props to Wagha for actually testing & not just glancing at things LMAO

is there a mod that skips the boss intro animations? need it for pantheon practice
QoL
what was the name of the mod thats inside of scarab i think
that lets you bind a key to a hack like gives u +1 extra life or it gives you the abbility to fly
to tp unlocks all skills stuff like that
Debug
thank you brother
nope
no wait it might be that let me check
i just remember the name was different
DebugMod
Valentino 2.0 & Don Quixote both looking great!
i cant see the mdos in the menu
they are installed and enabled
i tried to run both scarab and HK in admin too
press f1 in game to toggle Debug's menu
ye but i installed the HP enemies too and if that dont work
then that shouldnt either
indeed i tried it dont work
no mods i installed work .-.
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

for people that used the LanguageSupport mod and made translations: if possible, can you send them either to me or as an issue/pull request to https://github.com/SFGrenade/LanguageSupport-Repo so they can be added there (with attribution!) for easier discoverability.
@lucid thicketmaybe its because im having os 11 ?
the laptop i used to play in the past had 8
that shouldn't be an issue no
but if Lumafly alone doesn't solve the issue then create a post in #1057825333841240104
does lumafly have lots of mods like scarab ?
they have the same mods
yes , this lumafly works thanks guys
also i remember colette's nails since last time i used to play HK
cant believe you still play it XD
why LOL? I'll be playing rando forever
Randomize the breakable lanterns. The ones that release lumaflies when you smash them. Then have a lumafly collector who acts as a shop when you've collected enough lumaflies from broken lanterns.
randomizes breakables to sometimes explode
randomize all the crumble floors that break when you walk over them
Charm upgrades:soul cathcer 1/4
Soul catcher now gives +1 soul
At 4 its stronger than base game cather
And salubra something something(that acts like a shop)
Could even be two.One that gives stuff from amount of max charms collected,another for the amount of upgrades total
Save Files
What do save files looks like?
- Each Hollow Knight save file is a
user#.datwhere#is the save slot for the file - You can rename
user3.dattouser1.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 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 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\- 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 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
- If the file you download is a
.raror other archived format, then you will need to extract it with something like 7zip
- If the file you download is a
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 Discord (Dedicated space for finding people to play HKMP with)
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.

?tag hkmpsync
Synchronized HKMP Experience
HKMP allows players to interact with each other, but it does not synchronize the world in any way itself.
ive done some research on it but is there a way to actually do coop not just display someone but actually be able to do bosses together and stuff
Not yet
but would hkmp allow me to do bosses and stuff with a friend
There is a beta of fully syncing enemies (including bosses) which is available to patreons of the hkmp dev but as for right now there is no public way to have two players fight one and only one enemy
what patreon page is that, and what mods should i use along with hkmp
This has the mods you wanna use besides hkmp
Not sure, but it should be linked somewhere on the hkmp guide posted here, or on the hkmp discord
would it be better to use hkmp or itemsync
You use both
oh really
One to make it so you can see your friend, the other so you have the same items
alright thanks so much ill try it out and see if it worls
This skin also works, and seems fine. Or like. I'm not a malware expert by any means, but the zip is downloadable and doesn't contain anything that looks like it shouldn't be there
why do we no longer use Scarab
because lumafly functions better
I added the 4 new skins (Don Quixote, Tiny Rayman, and 2 versions of the Valentino skin) to the HKSkins website I made, and I also made it so you can copy and send links to a specific skin, and it should automatically jump to it in the list. For example, I'm using the Painter's Pupil one rn: https://hkskins.art/#painter's-pupil-by-mikelaxo
Also the website just got to over 1k visits, which is insane, thank you everyone who's using it, I'm glad it's being useful 😄
I just started using hollow knight modding and started using pc hollow knight and I have been using scared is that still a decent modding software
it is until it isn't. Scarb is well known for missing mod updates and/or dependenceis as well as having trouble switching between modded & vanilla installs
is there a mod in hk that makes the game run better ?

thank you
Does anyone know if the Charm Changer mod effects the Pale Court version of Defender's Crest?
It may, but I heavily doubt any of the mod was made with the other in mind
So maybe it works, maybe the charm will be broken, or maybe one of the mods will just override the changes the other makes
where can I find language files for the language support mod I wanna add a new one ?
is there a mod that shows boss and enemy projectile hitboxes?
There's no way to play (for example) a randomizer on Nintendo switch, right?
No, unfortunately modding is PC only
Okay thanks anyway
Not very well - you can enable hitboxes with debug, but iirc you need to turn them on while the projectile is in the air for the hitboxes to appear on them
i think it shows the hitbox regardless, at least from what i remember when using it
as in u dont need to turn it on everytime a projectile spawns
It might only be an issue for certain ones then?
There are definitely ones that don't show unless re-toggled
maybe. i mostly used it in radiance and a few other bosses
?tag pale court
No tag pale found.
?tag palecourt
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.jsonfor that file, and edit"atDeployedBench": true,->"atDeployedBench": false,. You can type?tag savefaqfor 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).

lowkey this should be in the pins or something. afaik it isnt mentioned/linked anywhere
People almost never read the pins
and the thread is pretty easily visible.
i thought it didnt show up in the channels until you first open it
It doesn't, but threads are basically right next to the pins, on mobile & desktop
oh, sorry, I didn't know that
somebody know how synchronize bosses of mods?
pale court or ancient aspid for exemple

i don't play hkmp so I dint have any details, that's all I know. Presumably more info in the hkmp server
ok, thank you

Is there any way to mod where and which enemies spawn in each room of the game? or make the randomizer have the enemies limited to their own areas idk
No and no
†this could be done as in someone could create a mod that does this, but this is not something that can be done currently.
The creator of the Enemy Randomizer has plans to eventually allow extra mods / features to exist using it, but he had been busy with other stuff in life and hasn't had a chance to work more on it

I seen someone was hopping to hollow knight 1.4 version and used mod that allow to make own maps and he was creating parkour for others. Anyone knows how this mod called
decoration master
Are you sure?
1.4 is unnecessery tho im pretty sure
The mod is DecorationMaster, yes
And I don't know about old versions but it's functional on current patch
I have too old laptop and i cant open 1.5 vers
If i create a map, how can i get into it and how do i add my friends
And btw is here any 1.4 hkmp that allows to see enemies of your friends too?
Any way to see them, even stupid ghosts
Anyone
I mean, everything I know about modding applies to current patch
Also worth asking - where did you get the game to use 1.4 but not CP?
What is CP? Im bad at english
You mean current patch?
@unique kindle
Steam beta versions basically (Нет=no)
Understandable
No beta version means just normal last patch of the game
Any official resources to download from?
You get the mod from lumafly (link in the pins) and if you want a already made maps you can get some of them from the modding server
We was talking about 1.4 verse
Its modinstaller
Or any more installers for 1.4?
My old laptop say cant open unity build due videodrivers
Here is 1.2 vids with decoration masters and one year ago i had friend that used it on 1.4
On 1.5
So im playing on 1.4
Bruh literally here is a vid from fireb0rn and he telling abt installation and other things for 1.4 vers decoration master and say link in description
Where tf is link in desc bruh
Host settings
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
Here is no decoration mod here
Or can you help me find? I cant
I need this mod 😦
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
Looks like the version he got is one of these https://github.com/a2659802/HollowKnight.Decoration/releases
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
hey @plush star did you mean to upload your entire customknight mod folder to the hollow knight skin service?
is that what made it go down
tbh i have no idea, took me a bit to restart it tbh, ended up killing the server and restarting it

Same boat I'm in 😭🙏 had to scuttle over to here
I wanna play Pale court after I get through the canon stuff, is there any way I can have a second save with all my current progress but also the mod without replacing the first one? Or is the mod a replay the entire game type thing?
Save Files
What do save files looks like?
- Each Hollow Knight save file is a
user#.datwhere#is the save slot for the file - You can rename
user3.dattouser1.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 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 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\- 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 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
- If the file you download is a
.raror other archived format, then you will need to extract it with something like 7zip
- If the file you download is a
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

Do you have any suggestions for youre favorite ones ?

Hello can i custom sound like attack sound ? If yes how ?
There are a ton of mods
If you want suggestions you may wanna be a more specific about what you are searching for
Randomiser 4 and its plethora of add ons is really fun, but maybe you don’t wanna play a randomiser
You have mods that alter combat, add charms, alter the world, add stuff…
Yes, with the Custom Audio mod
Hey guys, I'm using CustomKnightPlus mod to get some skins but none are working. I mean I've done everything right, like they load into the game because I've put them in the folder and unzipped the files but the problem is they won't actually show when I click "Apply skin".
I only got 1 skin to work, it's like a grub skin for your knght, but then I've tried a Hornet skin, Grimm skin, Pure vessel skin but those do not work.
I'll send a screenshot of what it looks like.
You don't use Custom Knight Plus for skins, just Custom Knight

Does anybody have a list of places where you can find some hk skins for the custom knight mod
... Literally right above your post
someone can show me some grimm's child skins?
theres a skin doc linked here, the bottom of that doc should have skins for charms like grimm child
unless u mean skins for the knight which are grimm-based, u can find them in the doc as well 
You would just CTRL + F "grimmchild" in the document
Skins are just folders with images. If you find a GC skin that you want, then you can just create a skin folder with just that image
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
Ohh
There is just the default skin folder so
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?
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.
If you're worried it never hurts to make a backup of your save, and its very simple

The overwhelming majority of mods will revert whatever they do on a save after you disable them
Some do leave effects even after being removed, but I don’t know of any mods which effect can’t be reverted with a few tricks
Accidentally loading a debug state and then actually saving it as your main file 
I’ve never dipped into save states (definitely should at some point)
Not really much reason to unless you are doing top level speedrun practice
Yeah that happened to me one time, thank god auto backups exist
hawlow nite
which mod edits the main menu layout
none that i know of, most of it was me editing it
with unity explorer?
yes.
looks fancy
might make a mod for myself that changes how the games ui looks
Thanks for your input. To confirm, is it this three that I've to copy out of the file into a separate folder?
Hmm, I assume that applies to the skin mod, bosses, and mods related to the cause and not debug or the bench mod.
just this one, really
do I ignore the other 2? Also, suppose I were to erase my game save file after copying just that one file. Do I restore the original save file prior to the new save file I created on the slot?
I feel like your questions are already answered by this message
are you able to remove the modding API from the top left corner? its slightly annoying
hide mod list doesn't remove it
It's intended that it's obvious when the game is modded.
Yes
oh, let me try again
i swear it kept showing as i was moving around
yeah its gone now, i guess it was just for the first time i launched the game with mods

guys i wanna instal some skins but some of them have link to discord channel but it doesnt open for me can somebody help (it says that the channel is HK Main)
Something you can try copying and pasting the link in a message that you send here, and then clicking the link from the message you just posted. If that still doesn't work then tell me which skin you're trying to get, I'll send its files again
ok
Sometimes discord can be pretty bad

Sprite Packer Info
Hollow Knight Sprite Packer is used to stitch together hollow knight sprites that are split from something like Game Object Dump (GODump). Note: this version of GODump is needed https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/879133769070706698/889708343793442886/GODump.zip .

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.

hello, any good mods i should try?
Pale court
thanks
HKMP may have bricked my Hollow Knight. For some reason, whenever I load into a file, my Knight is standing in front of the bench, I cannot move, I can use dream nail (even on a fresh save), and none of my other buttons work
What do i do

When I tried downloading it my antivirus blocked it as a Trojan. This was from the main GitHub website.

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.

Hi I installed scarab and the mods on it but when I launch my game there is no mod. Why?
it may be that Scarab is pointing to the wrong location. Lumafly is the recommended installer, if you still have problems after switching to that make a post in #1057825333841240104

Lumafly
Lumafly (formerly known as Scarab+) is a mod installer for 1.5 based on Scarab, but updated based on community feedback to fix problems that commonly occur in Scarab, as well as adding additional features.
Hey I'm coming back to hollow knight after a bit over a year of being away, wanted some light mods to surprise me, perferably either a fresh mechanic or an expansion of such, also want to be able to config them for ballance
also a really complete custom knight skin, enemy hp bar skin, and other complete cosmetic changes
As for expansion, you'll want to try Pale Court if you haven't yet, it's basically a fan made DLC. Also if into randomizers, over the last year there has been quite a lot of new rando content.

the .dll is enough, the .pdb contains debugging info
thanks
What are some popular QoL mods you guys recommend i download on scarab?
How do I start up the modded game?
With lumafly's launch modded button
Fire's video is a bit outdated due to this new scarab GUI
Well, it is several years old now, but the most relevant parts still apply
The only big difference is that lumafly is recommended over scarab

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 savesfor more information
- If you open a save file with QoL installed, you'll have an extra file called
- 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 savesfor 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.

The crossover we deserve
Guys, I had a problem with debugmode, for some reason now, shaman stone and soul eater cost 2 notch and 3 notch someone knows how can I fix it?
Also this happened when I use "allcharms"
There's a way that I can fix it? I don't like having it like that
Probably
I'm not sure what provoked it
you should do a #1057825333841240104 post with all the info requested, especially your list of mods (the modlog does contain that)
charm changer mod or smth
or just edit in the code,,,,
my bet is that you downloaded some mods without knowing what they do
but yeah you can edit them back with save editing at the very least
I fixed it with charm changer, they were already on 3 and 4 but in the moment I touch they values, in game they came back to normal because when I tried save editing it, it appeared too that they already were in 3 and 4 but after apply the changes, they were in 2 and 3 for some reason, anyway thanks!

its not on lumafly or on Mods List for 1.5
last time i asked for buzzbo for 1.5 someone gave me it
it was called buzzbo remastered
oh sorry sorry
i didn't see no reply
if someone already gave it to you
You could also use discord search to find your old messages ?
i'll try
Random question - is there a mod where shade tries to kill you as you progress
does anyone have links for this 4 mods for 1.5?
- Lifeblood Master
- Uuwuu
- Traitor God
- Nightmare Ultimatum Radiance
i couldn't find these four for 1.5 
See the modlist a few posts above, if it's not on the installer or there it either doesn't exist or is very poorly documented/hard to find
All of those afaik are some of those pantheon of nightmare bosses
So never ported for sure
And no clue in regards to availability
lifeblood master is NOT on 1.5
but i swear i've seen triador god on scarab
The first 3 only works on 1.4 version of the game, not current patch, and finding them can be dificult
The last one actually has a 1.5 port, but it's in the Hollow Knight excel mod list, not in lumafly
Also its not worth it to play nightmare ultimatum, youre better off playing immortal light or something imo
Who was doing an extensive list of modded bosses ?
Was it you or was it someone else ? I remember them popping in a few servers trying to build one
Okay, I guess these 1.4 version bosses doesn't have 1.5 port
Is there any chance that someone will make 1.5 port variants someday?
someday? sure. (But unlikely, given it hasn't been done yet)

how can i mod hollow knight on a modded switch with atmoshpere ?
Not sure what atmosphere is
If it works like a PC, you can mod it
If not, then you can’t

Would installing a mod like pale court make it so I can no longer get achievements on steam?
I'm playing randomizer and I got "directional dash". I tried to dash any direction but it doesn't work I also restarted the game and yet nothing can someone explain?
?tag achievements
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.
your using Skill Upgrades. You have to have Normal Dash in order to make use of Directional Dash, as well as having it enabled in the skill upgrades menu

I went to get a snadwitch in the middle of my steal soul run and left the game runnign and died

and tahnks
The deepnest one can potentially have the Dirtcarvers attack you
But save editing should cover the case
That said, always pause the game when AFK
The knight trying to look like his tall brother lol
When I finish this, I'll do a proper showcase
It's a skin
It was so fun to make this haha
He angy >:3
i asked about p6 for the first time 
Wasn't you then
still thanks
btw does anyone have this mod somewhere?
Thanks for watching, I hope you enjoyed the video, and a like on the video would be greatly appreciated!
AnyZote 2.3: The updated AnyZote version, done by the one and only Nearring!!! - @danirainy
Link to their showcase video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZuBQCFgOHg
Little Grimm skin was created by yukawa, and can be found below:
https:...
I dont have it. Seems cool though
another test on my sprite edit. I call it TeleportKnight
I wanted the knight to teleport like the pure vessel or something like that
teleport ability would be so cool
and it looks great
yeah hahah but I guess its something that only the pure vessel could do sadly
thanks XD
If I was struggling so much to do this simple edit I can't imagine how it would be to make a full skin
Now I would need to get rid of the crystal effect that it has and It would be almost perfect
I just had an idea: maybe (if it is possible) removing the Knight's hitbox or make it have Invincibility frames while dashing could work for a pseudo teleport with this skin I made
can you use samething similar as shade dash?
is there a savegame completion analyzer which works with the shitty xbox pc gamepass savefiles?
they are encrypted
aren’t mods like pc exclusive
not sure what you mean. my game isnt modded or anything. its just a normal hollow knight pc gamepass version
Idk
oh I just didn’t read that you were on pc lmao
I use the steam version so I cant help
yeah the savefiles are encrypted by default which is really a giant pain in the ass.
decrypting/converting is rocket science and doesnt works tried it for hours
Last I heard, you literally just have to change the extension on them to .dat
already tried that it doenst works
this error message comes up
hey DwarfWoot
maybe im using the wrong save completion analyzer?
is there a better one than https://reznormichael.github.io/hollow-knight-completion-check/ ?
do you know where can i download this zote?
Search zote on Lumafly. Iirc AnyZote happens when you combine two specific zote mods
2.3 is just the version number my dude
There's nothing called "AnyZote 2.3"
There's just AnyZote, which is on version 2.3
I thought that you weren't finding AnyZote at all, which is what I was talking about. It originally wasn't it's own mod
alright thanks 
This skin is impressive
I should try to make time to work on the list again. Maybe I can make HK8Y a deadline & just push what I have finished by then & accept it will never be a "complete" update LOL
I
Am very sorry.
._.
Pure Zote and Absolute Zote activated => normal Any Zote
The one called AnyZote on Lumafly, is pretty much the shiny golden AnyZote version with lasers
If it confuses you, it did to me too
It is confusing but I get it
nah guys i'm a bit confused. I downloaded the scarab to use mod on hollow knight but i only wanted the one to show enemies hp and the hollow knight voiced. But for some reason i noticed some boss fighs changed after i did that...???
well what mods did u download exactly
these ones
The collector boss fight
He just jumps up and down but he did not trow any enemies at me trough all of his fight
it was really weird
Uhhh
Maybe turn off adblocker?
If it doesnt work, then maybe hk vocalized could be messing with collector a bit
I'll try
but the collector wasn't the only one affected
the no eyes one
these things that keep floating around it's area didn't appear
it, starts a bunch of bosses early, skipping their title card "ads"
ads = adds = additional enemies
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
what did you think it did? LOL
i mean, i was thinking scarab showed some ads and this thing blocked it?
😭
Ping isn't needed thanks. And there are no ads in either of the installers. And Lumafly is recommended over scarab
i feel dumb
apparently false knight also spawns something, ig the barrels count as that, same for the pancakes of the elder
i read something with an arena
i think i'll have to restart my save lol
nvm, that was gruz mother
there's nothing with aspid babies or any arenas, just the bosses
Hi leon hi anika
Lmao pls do not ping them just to say that
sorry

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:
- Hollow Point edits how Soul works on a file, as mentioned in the ReadMe
- Here are ways to fix it.
Not working with Custom Knight skins!
This is a known issue, and Custom Knight is not considered compatible with HP.
I added the new skin to the website as well :3 Also, if it's not too much of a bother, you can ping me as well with new skins. I'm trying to keep up with this channel to notice if smth new pops up, but I'm not super active on discord nowadays

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

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
You can check out this message #modding-discussion message, especially the guide in the first link
thanks, that helps a lot
i realized how sarcastic that sounded, i was being genuine, sorry
i dont like pale court
the music is lame and the isma fight is the laggiest thing in all of hollow knight
Mad at a mod because you have a bad pc is certainly a take 
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
Funny, my lag issues were with Dryya
Ehh I don't know. In any case, it's a shame you dislike it, you won't find many better ones.
I just dont see the point in bashing something people put a lot of time & effort into. Some people just enjoy spreading their bitterness I guess 
either way, this is a certified unity engine moment
i'm sorry
the visuals are great though i guess
Ping isn't needed thanks. And you don't need to apologize to me, I didn't work on it (tho many who did are here).
things can only be optimized to a certain extent
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)

why are the holowknight skins not working

This is the mod for reskinning things in the game

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):
Guys, I accidentally found an impossible modded boss
Pale Prince + Pale Shadow
Its as hard as Any Radiance (I think)
cute
yea so prince of shadows is easier than any rad
nail only pale shadow on ascended difficulty might be any rad level
its not impossible i know 2 people whove beaten it
what is that mid skin in the img smh
i got to 3rd phase but its pretty boring ill do it in 20 days
Ok, maybe not as hard as anyrad
feel free to ask any questions
But it's cool boss
yes i agree
i will say nail only might be impossible
(nail only prince of shadows)
I thought I discovered something lol😆
i can say that its easier as ive beaten any rad overcharmed and probably have the most time on pale shadow
ur not the only person lmao
It's going on my boss hunter list for sure 🥲
🫡
umm does anyone have hollow point files?
(answered in the modding server)
I can't ask here cause I don't think it's a huge problem
?tag moddinghelp
No tag moddinghelp found.
I will never find it
But yeah
If it's something small ask here, if it can't be solved in a few chat rounds probably Modding Help is the right place
When I try to use mod installer it tell me: "this installer requires the most recent stable version"
One guy in Relyea comments say how to solve it but I didn't get everything he said
And of course it's the last version
Which installer are you using?

Just assume whenever it does something with Scarab, you do it with Lumafly instead

Do any of these mods skip the dreamer dream nail cutscene? Someone in hk help is wondeirnf
The usual culprit for skipping things is QoL, which I don't see
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
But they are using scarab and I use lumafly
So I don’t really know
Ping isn't needed,thanks.Mod installers don't change how the mods work
Oh
No I thought maybe there was a mod similar to lumafly’s QOL on scarab
That I didn’t know about
Lunafly & scarab have the same modlist
Oh

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.

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!

it wold be cool if we could combine Absolute Inferno and Pale Prince, just like Nightmare & void mod
any good/fun lumafly buff mods
hey whats the point
What are some mods that add more content to the base game
Does anyone know why I can’t join VC
Like there’s the pale warriors one but that’s all I know of :p
there's test of teamwork that adds a small new subarea but no map, same goes for stories of a hk player ch 2
ig mods like glimmering realm can be consideren new area, though they reshuffle the existing map into a new structure
Did sanctuary get canceled?
I remember seeing it when they announced it but then I quit playing hollow knight
rip
