(well, I think there's a skin that has her replace Marissa, but I don't think that's what you're looking for)
that'd be cool to have lmao
where can I find that?
Ping isn't needed, thanks. And I don't remember what skin has it, but you can take a look at w3hat's available

oops sorry for the ping, didn't mean to
is there a way to not have pings as the default reply?
sometimes I forget to turn off
discord's default is on. I think there's a button you can press when replying to toggle it (shift or ctrl or something) but I don't know which it is
holding shift while pressing reply makes it disable the ping but that's not permanent sadly
I just gotta remember to disable it everytime then ig
#modding-discussion message here the skin that replaces it
How much would i need to pay someone to make a hatsune miku skin?
Knight skins usually start at several hundred dollar & go up depending on complexity & how much else you want changed (magic etc)
the knight alone is like 800 sprites
Worth it tho š
There'sa thread in the modding server of artists who accept comms if you're seriously considering it https://discord.com/channels/879125729936298015/1206658814871339048
(I'd be wary of any random person that offers, especially if they haven't made a skin before)
I am also seriously considering it like literally no joke at all
just donāt say commission 
I actually haen't been inundated with DMs the last few times I've said it LOL
they're all to busy handing out gift cards prolly 
my only fear is that silksong comes out before hollow knight gets a hatsune miku skin but everyone knows silksong coming out is not even a concern at this point
i got one and that was it

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.

can someone help me install an HP bar skin on mac
Do u have Lumafly?
nah i have scarab
Ok I think it works too if u try search the name of the hp bar mod in it
Cuz theyāre both installers with a range of mods
?tag scarab
No tag scarab found.
like i have it but i use scarab because i find lumafly to confusing
Shucks
Lumafly is apparently better cuz it gets more frequent updates and stuff
I think
no i mean i want to know how to install a skin for the hp bar
i already have the mod
Ic
Idk if there is skins for it maybe the read me has connections that change the skin?
But I havenāt seen a hp bar skin yet
So idk if it exists
there are but i dont know how to install them into the game
Ic
not technically trying to do mod stuff, but figured this place would have people who know how to help here-
does anyone know where the actual video files used for the game's cinematic cutscenes(like the intro and endings) are stored?
no clue
how to mod video in the pins covers installing hp bar skins
Lumafly is literally based on scarab so I'm curious what you find confusing?
the raw files are not in the game files, because that would not be very effecient. They are compressed into asset files with all of the other assets.
ah, thhat's upsetting
Damn

I'm getting a little bit worse every time I'm trying Radiant IKG
Time for me to take a real break
... because?
skissue
lampissue
Sunset radiance apparently
Someone beat any radiance 3.0
Yeah
i saw itās getting a update
Someone will have to come with a dumber boss to build an actually impossible boss
Just make each attack fullscreen...
Ainkg + prince of shadows sounds incredebly funny
Tbh I donāt consider the boss beaten
They basically did 2/4 phases, and used wacky out of bounds to cheese the other 2
There are still very real skills on display, but it doesnāt really feel like the boss has been conquered
Its not like talez has to stop playing..

This thread in the modding server would be a good start: https://discord.com/channels/879125729936298015/1206658814871339048
Most people that have taken a CK Skin comission have not wanted to accept another one after their first 
also alot of skins come from bilibili authors and they donāt even use discord
Then maybe make a fair boss fight and i won't have to use that shit
You can't even tell because the clear has good rng in plats but this is harder than 2.0 by a lot

š¦
If 3.0 is never beaten glitchless it wonāt be because the boss is too hard, more so because the boss is too unfun
-# which is kinda the goal soā¦
talz jumpscare
Itās doable cuz u see tas runs completed which doesnāt seem to need constant frame perfect reactions

I HAVE IT ON STEAM
and your friend does not
@ Colette
@shadow kite
i have some more but the downloader crashed and wont restart
guess ill post the ones that aint apart of baidu for now
did you want something that your mamma can't give to you ?
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mjN-F5uoyj2d3aDbcvl8oknzx-3fXEfu/view?usp=sharing
Yea it doesnt but if the gameplay isnāt super human then a human can do it at their peak performance
TAS is not only peak execution but also lots of RNG manipulation which are extremely important in a boss with as much RNG as 3.0
just get lucky..
where can i find specific ahe info,the readme has 5 words
specifically charm rebalance.But if i know what it does to bosses,would be nice.
If it's not in the ReadMe, and there's not a wiki page for it, then probably nowhere
how can i find a wiki page for a mod?
Exactly
That's fair, the only mod i know has a wiki is pale court
i was about to find that in downloaded mod file
code reading time ig
Beat mod ever made
atleast it wonāt break other charm mods (it probably still will)
What's the current URL for Itemsync?
mw.hkmp.org
there isnt many pages for mods
you can go to the wiki tho and theres a section for mods
you said commission didnāt you

yeah bots scrap for that word
its fun when you donāt even use it for art commissions and they send a completely irrelevant picture
You want to be scammed? LOL
Like, real artists that accept real comms don't usually go DM'ing for client. Clients come to them
Ye
It jsut takes time & practice & patience
even with nail polish, you don't need to apply n eatly with a cleanup brush

was there an update recently? custom knight isnt showing for me anymore
The last update was 6 months ago, not sure what you mean by "not showing", is it on the installer? In game? If in game, is the mod showing up in the top left corner? If you need troubleshooting you can create a post in #1057825333841240104
will do. if there wasnt an update that was my next step
hah... toggled it off and on again in scarab. problem solved
was that two scam links within 10 minutes
You gave me an idea:
Now I would really like to have a set of dotting tools to do one of these, but for all the dreamers and a zote face
cuuute 
i just got scarab downloaded onto my computer :3
What does the adblocker mod do? Like what ads are in the game? Is it a meme mod?
it effects a handful of fights, those with adds
Oh my god
Thatās clever
Thanks for the ping ^^ I got all of them written down, and I'll be adding them to the website prolly on Thursday
It could be custom
Like,you can use one charm from one skin, hud from another etc.
Youre in 2025,its not like you cant translate stuff on the screen.
Surely use mobile..
help
how do i regenerate the default skin
Open a save file, and then go to the CK Settings menu and select the option to regenerate it
It may be in "Advanced" options, I don't remember
thanks
for future reference to others
it's called 'Make Default' in advanced settings
and requires a restart (ambiguous, dunno if it means reloading the save or reloading the game)
You don't need to copy text to translate it. If you right click you should see the option "translate to english" for the entire page, or just open Google translate on your phone and use the camera
~~exactly what i meant
~~
Is it possible to add mods on switch version ?
It's unfortunately not

It's not a repository of skins that you can view-- It's a place for finished Skins to be uploaded to, and then shared from, instead of linking to Discord posts.
i wanted to ask about enemy rando, if i make a save file, then change the settings and reopen the save file, will it regenerate depending on the new settings or keep working with the original settings?
80% sure its option 1
thank you
you don't even need to close the save file to make changes with enemy rando, you can change whatever you want & it will take effect when you go thru a transition
could anyone tell me what the best mods are to enhance the experience
Depends on what you mean by enhance and what you find fun
There's nothing I would recommend to everyone tbh. Also I don't really think most people agree with my idea of fun (randos that take longer than some casual playthrus). Like, are you looking for exploration? Platforming? Bosses?
well i guess ill figure it out myself, thank you for your help š
Qol is a must have at VERY least because it allows to replay pop
Debug too but not as necessery imo
HK Randomizer is something that one has to experience at least once IMO
It may be shocking to hear, but many people do not care at all about replaying PoP 
Also 90% of recommendations either get "no not that mod tho" or "I forgot to mention I already played that" so I never give recs unless someone gives me at least something to go on
Im pretty sure qol speeds up text so at least that is good enough
And allows to skip credits
Debug is soooo not necessary either, I don't know why people recommend that as like, a default mod to install.
Because you can do everything with it
you can do plenty of stuff without it too.
But you can do a lot more and a lot faster with it
its the 3.0 victor
debug isn't going to let me change my game textures or randomize my game any faster than not having debug.
Debug isn't going to let me edit my gear any faster. Oh wait it will
Of course you use an example of something the mod simply can't do
if your goal is to be able to do that, sure, but like, to say debug is a mod everyone should have is not something I'd personally do, I just see it happen a lot when people ask for mod recs.
yeah, then you just get the people who accidentally bind something absurd to their jump button
if it's not needed it's far more likely to cause issues for people who don't know what they're doing (AKA many if not most people just getting started modding)
Tbf, my biggest use case for debug is for mod making (noclipping to places, granting skills to new save files, etc).
So I see a strong case of it not being mandatory for casual players. Of course, for top-level combat/speedrunning and for practicing skips it's incredibly handy too, so using/ignoring it really depends on the goal.
It does allow to noclip everywhere,show shade spawns and do a bunch of random things
Sure it's not necesserry,but no harm in being able to noclip/invincibillity to test something,give yourself abbilities,show shade spawns and bounderies,infinite soul,quick self kill and like 14 pages of extra stuff
how does the hollowpoint mod work ?
nvm
but how do i heal
because to equip the gun
If you haven't then you should read the mod's readme
Hey, new here and qq. Does anyone know how to find the api documentation for the scarab launcher?
Tried to find it and canāt figure it out
You'll find it there https://hk-modding.github.io/api/api/index.html, that being said if you're creating mods (for which you can find a tutorial here) you might want to join the modding server (link in the pins) and get the developper role to get access to the dev channels.
(Also note that I assumed that you meant the modding api, which both Scarab and Lumafly install when you mod the game)
Yup! I noticed it when I downloaded it but couldnāt find any docs on it. Will check out the link you sent me. Thanks!
can anyone help me start modding? i dont really know how to do it but i recently bought hk soo i need a tutorial maybe?

Question, should I do Corrupted Kin or finish Pale Court?
Whichever you want 
If I knew what I wanted, I wouldn't ask but ok
I don't see how you think anyone else will know for you though? 
Ping isn't needed thanks. But seriously, no one here knows you? Why would anyone know what you should do??
I want someone to tell me what to do
As someone who doesn't enjoy Boss Fights all that much: Ditch them both and play a Rando

*between the 2 options
Whatever you say, chief 
Now you can Rando, as it is between the two options 
I mean, if you're already doing Pale Court, why not finish it
That said, Rando is love, Rando is life
I feel like there's a dirty joke in here somewheere about not doing that for free 
i have actually opted into playing nonsense rn instead of rando
Not that i wont come back to it,just like mood dependant something something
Fair, specially with those extra long cursed seeds
Been doing my fair work into BWR 4, but so far a few of the collapsers have been weird.
Imagine the Garpede Pogo Room having absolutely no consequence in logic at all was a bit disappointing.
Just consider, it will whenever pogo actually gets rando'd
so you're preparing lol
surely theres a shade skip
Across the entire room?
You can't die in that room without getting to spikes and that requires the current logic
But this is true indeed
If we get downslash rando it can be useful someday
i forgor theres a ledge in that room

Verify that you are using the correct installer and patch!
- For normal modding you should use a current patch installer (such as Lumafly or Scarab) and you must have Steam Betas set to "None"
- Pirated
copies / Unofficial ports are not supported
- Pirated
- Modding on 1.4.3.2 using "Mod Installer" / "Mod Installer 2" is no longer supported.
- 1.2.2.1 Modding does not have an installer.

dnail splitš
that changes 2 things
right dnail for shrine of belivers and godhome shop access
I think it's only shrine of believers that has side dream nail locked
And the void golem dream dialogues
i guess you do have the option to spam left yeahš
Or some stuff like that I guess
then crystal heart too
there are no left exclusive things as far as i can think of damn
maybe godseeker but i genuinelly dk how it works with gh rando and how far you have to walk for it to work normally and such
are there any skins that change how tk appears on the map(with compas)?
is that even possible to change
Yes, many
The only interaction between Godhome Rando and Godseeker is that if the shop is enabled and any items are not collected, dream nailing Godseeker will always lead to the hidden memory scene (where the shop is) no matter what
Ohh
Then the right dnail is from qol probably
I have that mod on too much i dont remember how stuff works without it

I have the idea of a mod messing with that, but not sure of which one it is. By default I think it has a 1/2% chance once you defeat N pantheons

is it something to do with my virus protector
Also discord puts a warning for every file you download from it, no matter what it is, there's always a button to continue. If there's not then something else might be blocking it, in which case I'd like to see a screenshot

Ah right, you have the new knight role. Well it automatically goes away in a few hours, I can't remove it myself but mods can
i gotcha
it basically just says cant download file. Learn more
when i click learn more it just takes me to google doc tutorial on downloading files lol
Weird. Well the file is small enough so that I can send it here
if that allows you to download it
if i download an hp bar, does it put it on the knight or is it for enemies, i only have an enemy hp bar folder
let me check if i can download
oh I can
thanks dood
Custom hp bars are for enemies and bosses, to use with the EnemyHPBars mod
sweet okay, I was wonderring cause one was called white palace knight
so I thought it was for the bug soldier
To install it you need to put its files in EnemyHPBars' CustomHPBar folder, which is generated after launching the game with the mod installed. There's a video tutorial here #modding-discussion message which includes custom hp bars, I recommend checking it out to see the correct folder structure
Yeah, I was watchin the tutorial but was confused cause I missed the part where heād said open the game firstš¤£
Does fragile nail mod make your nail super strong
Which one is this? I can only think of FragileStrengthForNailArts, which, well, allows fragile strength to buff nail arts, making them quite strong indeed
Yeah that one, I enabled it and was one tapping every little bug
I turned it off cause I thought it made it slightly weaker
The name fragile strength threw me off
Thought it made it harder
Iād initially downloaded the game for my lady, she loves ori and hollow knight is similar, but I donāt want to take away from the game too much, already downloaded easy mode mod
The mod shouldn't impact normal nail hits though
Hope she'll enjoy it!
there should be a mod that adds a macebug entry
Hello, i would like to ask why does scarab and lumafly say "Unable to verify path!" when i add a file Hollow knight.exe (i run the game on whiskey.app if thats part of the problem).
(Not certain of what whisky is but) the normal mac version of hollow knight works fine with modding, with no extra layer of compatibility needed
At any rate for a more thorough troubleshooting please make a #1057825333841240104 post including all the info requested in the FAQ
Guys can anyone tell me how I can play fyremoth? I saw it on YouTube but I can't find it on lumafly
It's not out yet
damn, do you know of any similar mods that modify the game? like pale court
Fyremoth isn't planned to be anything remotely similar to Pale Court, fwiw
If you want something like fyremoth, the Hallownest Enhanced (iirc) would be the closest
With Godsoul also being there, but it's very punishing
you too
If you want "like Pale Court" , then you probably just want Boss Mods, which is a searchable tag on Lumafly
like the pale court i meant a mod that added new challenges and charms
Pretty much every mod that requires WeaverCore is very good. Note that you can't use a Pale Court at the same time as most other mods, especially other boss mods
yes i know, how i can search all the mod with weavercore?
- you don't need to ping people that are actively talking to you
- if you want more Platforming challenges, then see Test of Teamwork, or look into Decoration Master packs
In Lumafly you can search for mods that require WeaverCore
decomaster maps are funny
sorry I really didn't mean to, thank you so much for all the advice
impossible 112 and any%
ok i will try also decomaster
?tag noping
you could combine imp112 and ahe
if you want even more terrible expirince add godsoul
Why did you assume it was me
Arent you
Omniwhatever
can you stand still somehow with Hollowpoint?
Never played it,but maybe like an inventory drop?
not sure what that is
Just..open inventroy(not quick map)
Its called a drop because its usually used to speed up drops
I've been experiencing a host of issues with the Custom Knight mod regarding the rendering of various assets. Presently, I'm experiencing these issues specifically with the Smolaire skin.
- Nothing in the Custom HUD is loading, except for the custom image for full soul
- The custom Geo icon is not loading, and never loaded for any of the other skins I've tried
- All of the void spells are not loading, but the level 1 spells are
- I am not getting any previews for the other skins in the pause menu UI
I've double checked the skin folder, and everything seems there. What's going on?
Sounds like you should be posting in #1057825333841240104
Read the faq and include the requested info.
guys i have a shadow problem on hollow knight, i downloaded the "little grimm" skin and the shadow of death doesn't change with the one in the pack can someone help me?
You were already told by colette in the modding discord that little Grimm doesn't change that
ok ok thx
Guys, is there a way to make the mod stay fixed when the game is turned on? Let me explain better, every time I enter the game I have to go into the settings and activate the skin, isn't there an option that makes it fixed by default?
Saves already remember the skin you last applied by default.
If you want to set a skin to apply every time you start a new game, you do it at the main menu.
anyone know if there is a fixed broken vessel skin?
what do you mean "fixed"?

#modding-discussion message here the alt i believe
also sorry for the late response was at work
<@&283547423706447872> missed one
Wasnāt missed just message deletion taking its sweet ass time
ah
No worries, i was just trying to organize some of my notes last night. Finally making some update progress
try test of teamwork
I'm not a Celeste guy, I just want my Abyssal Bloom
i'm also not a celeste guy
I think Abyssal Temple is on par with PoP in difficulty
||Bretta's house|| however...
I think it's harder
Like, it took me almost as long as my casual pop even tho it's shorter and I had thousands of hours in game
does anyone know where any radiance 1.0 is? i wanna play 1.0 but all i can find is 3.0/2.0
ty
I'm still locked in the Temple
Weee~
I'm starting to feel like Abyssal Bloom isn't worth it
Maybe doing it after PoP got me more in pace. I did Pale Court barely after finishing the base game (conveniently it released at the time) and I think it took me around as long. Though shorter, the last section is def the hardest between the two platforming scenes
5 notches isnāt worth unless itās a full nuke
I never used it actively except for Ascended Hegemol
I'm not too confident playing in 1 HP
Is uh... EnemyHPBar not exactly compatible with hollowpoint? I've notice some hits or even the entire bar doesn't register...
I don't know of it's a known incompatibility but I wouldnt be surprised. Hollow point is a pretty janky mod
just got the pale court mod, tried fighting all of the knights. Do i like the mod? NO. Why? THEY FUCKING BULLY ME š
Pale Court bosses are hard
If I close the game while there's a randomizer on, do I have to start from scratch? Will it remember all randomed options?
Yes, you can reopen as many times as you like
And it will remember the save too etc etc
The randomization process is done on save file creation and is kept afterwards
Yeah
If I play in co-op with someone else, will they also need to install all those rando mods?
Yes, to play co-op you'll need the randomizer mods you want + itemsync
And HKMP if you want to see each other in the map
With ItemSync, when creating a save file you'll be asked to join a server (mw.hkmp.org) and make a room name
The co-ops I made were always done in one sitting, but AFAIK they also handle item syncing when one of the users is offline
They do, as long as the server isn't reset I believe
Also worth noting you cannot start a co-op mid rando, that requires a new save
I'm scared of the sheer amount of mods I installed like that is way too much
How does it not break with all those XD
Yeah Rando ends up having a million set up mods that somehow all (usually) work well together
The mod-size monstrosity also gets quite bigger if multiple connections are enabled as quite a few of the modders have their own library mods
Wdym multiple connections
Connections are mods that work together with rando to add more items
How many mods did you end up with?
16 isn't a lot LOL
if it makes you feel better, this is my count
Do they change more other than what the original mods I installed do though
No, they basically have code that in one way or another is needed for the mods you wanted to install work
IE, Randomizer 4 can't randomize without RandomizerCore since many of its randomization algorithms are defined there, but RandoCore on its own won't make you a randomized save
Alright, thank you guys
Anytime!
no it's not LOL (there's a counter at the upper right)
Also from what I see there - you don't have RandoMapMod but if you're gonna play rando I strongly suggest you enable it
It will be invaluable in navigating the map
It's 31, idk what happened after the screenshot but some shit popped up and now it's 31
Would anyone like to play Hollow knight Multiplayer with me?
I considered using rando map mod but doesn't it make it too easy? It spoilers locations of stuff no?
It doesn't spoil by default
maybe you were still downloading some when you took the screenshot? But yeah, you don't have to manually count them
It just shows where obtainable items are
I was done installing all of them
And what is and isn't logically reachable
So it'll help you when getting stuck, not by showing you where an item is but by showing which places you can go
Mmm I see, ok I'll turn it on
Well, even at 31, my points remains š
In case I get stuck how can I use it to see where are idk dreamers and other important items
It has a spoiler feature, but that takes a bit of the fun. Just knowing what you can access and going there will eventually get you the items you look for
Just maybe not in the order you expect
By default it will show you what items are currently in logic for you. As long as you continue doing that you shouldn't get stuck but if you want to see spoilers most people would suggesst checking the actual spoiler log as it's easier to search
it's a file outside it, but rando has an option to open your logs folder
Sad that you can't decide 1 by 1 what you can or cannot randomize
You have a lot of flexibility
With base rando alone being over 500 possible checks, going through them one by one would be painful
I found my favorite randomized items option, but I still think geo chests is stupid
With connections that number goes way over 5k
If you want to individually check some of those item pools you can do so in More Randomizer Settings
That allows you to remove Geo Chests or add other stuff or whatever
In any case, those seem like good settings for a first run
What is "long locations" about?
I didn't put any mod that like, moves totems away or shit
It's mainly meant for previewing and/or enabling and disabling places like White Palace/Path of Pain/Grey Prince Zote essence
You might want to check the ReadMe in Lumafly or in the source repo: https://github.com/homothetyhk/RandomizerMod/tree/master
You'll be surprised to see the insane amount of replayability Randomizer adds to the game
Looks like you had something in the search bar, so that explains the 16
That one's to group item pools together, so let's say you want to shuffle all charms but you want charms to be in charm locations only, you put them in a singular group. No need to pay it much attention the first times
Same goes for Progression Depth settings which are much more technical
The cost randomization doesn't make any sense to me, why most stuff has a minimum cost of 1. You can't ever buy anything at that price in game
Does it make really long and stressful if I set, let's stay, grubs minimum cost to 100
That won't do, as the idea of that is how many Grubs you'll need to rescue for items at Grubfather
So 100 Grubs is literally impossible
Same concept applies to essence at seer and for Rancid Eggs at Egg Shop if enabled
Wait I thoght cost was about the geo they cost on shops
guys how do i download grub skin ?
Do you have lumafly installed?
only scarab, should i install lumafly ?
I think so yeah
ok downloading... thanks
Was scarab the old lumafly? I don't recall it
its another hk mod app, tbh idk lol

i downloaded it, how do i play with grub i really need him
like
i love him
i REALLY wanna play with him

- 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

thx so much >3
The video was made with an old version of Scarab but it still applies to Lumafly, just remember to launch the game and open a save at least once after installing Custom Knight to let it generate the Skins folder and the default skin
Nah that's handled by the randomizer, depending on the item type there's a price range. Most stuff is usually sub 500 geo
Me when journal at 1400 geo
Scam relics are a thing, yeah haha
Reminds me of that Archipelago where I slightly increased the max cost of items in shops because it didn't seem very high, only to end up with many items costing close to the max limit (about 1500 geo)
In general I find shops to be a bit boring and I hope they have 1 or 2 useful items overall
Tbh costs are kinda the things which just get set semi randomly when the mod is created and arenāt ever touched on again
Like I find default grub and especially especially essence costs to be quite low, unlike eggs which are usually more bothersome
Max grub being at 46 is the only correct way to rando 
Shops that use other currencies like Grubs/Essence/Eggs/Connection shops are usually more fun than Geo shops
Since they're more locked by progression state than by geo farming/Lemm accessibility
(Im assuming that all default cost follow a formula of like, max cost is 50% of available item but shh)
Then what is "cost" about
Well part of the issue is also that the 4 geo shops are basically all in crossroad
glares at a random Junk shop check requiring 43 Grubs, 2200 essence, 51 breakable walls, 160 statue marks and 3 arcane eggs
As discussed here, it's about handling rewards from Grubfather/Seer/etc
Grubfather will give you reward that will "cost" one grub at minimum and maybe 25 grubs at maximum
They donāt really cost anything since you donāt loose the grub but they require that amount
Basically that setting is to account for clutter
If you have lots of duplicate, extra items from specific settings and such you tend to have lots of items which canāt be placed in the world, since you donāt want to remove other items from pools, you place those extra items at shops
In extreme cases that ends with 20+ items in shops
Fusing mask shards is a way to solve that
If you arenāt running in an issue of shops being too full, no real reason to fuse shards
Anyway
6am wake up sharp tomorrow
Goodknight :3
What does this refer to exactly?
Also is there a way to remove the list of mods on the top left
The mod list will disappear as soon as you start the game and will only be visible while paused. You can use the HideModList mod to make it less visually annoying it but by design it's always there in some way, this is to prevent modding in speedrun leaderboards
The duplicate items is a setting that will place two copies of those specific items if enabled to make rando completion less frustrating
It's up to you if you want to use it or not
2 copies, I guess the second gets removed and replaced by another item of the pool once the first is acquired?
If you get the second copy of an item you'll be given 100 Geo
For when you play coop or with others, the Hash is a way you can know you're going to have the same item placements as your partners
If playing solo, feel free to ignore it entirely
But what is that list of 4 enemies about
It's the Hash's value, no impact in-game
Is... this a vanilla bug or a modded bug... I'm behind the door
If you mean the screen being dark it's vanilla
I... how do I fix it?
How did you enter the room?
managed to hit the switch and escape... still will have to go back and see if it's bright now
Hmm that's odd, the room should have light the moment you enter from the right
How does this exactly works
Ehhh that's quite longer to explain
My friend created a lobby, how to join it?
Lemme see where's a good guide
If you're gonna play a Randomizer together, you need two things:
- The RandoSettingsManager mod, in order to share the settings and seed between the two and have the same items available.
- ItemSync mod.
Okay, your friend should send you a code that looks somewhat like this:
4dec3f5e-bf62-49df-b4f1-43421ddd7529 <-- example of a settings code
When they share you the code, copy it to your clipboard, go to More Randomizer Settings -> Manage Settings Profiles -> Paste Key
And then go back and hit Begin Randomization
Check you and your friend have the same Hash
Ok that sounds pretty simple, thank you again
And the screen after that will have an ItemSync menu
Where you connect to the ItemSync server (mw.hkmp.org)
You pick a nickname and both of you get the same room name
If everything is correct, the top right should display Ready Players as 2
With both your nicknames
If both are connected and all's good, you hit Start ItemSync and the coop rando begins
How do you reach this?
More Randomizer Settings -> Manage Settings Profiles
So I do have to set exactly the same stuff as them?
Yes, which is why I recommend the Copy/Paste key
As it saves you the hassle of manually setting all stuff to be exactly the same
One of you makes the settings, goes there, selects create key, sends it to the other
And the other goes to that menu and pastes the key
That will make the settings exactly match with the sender's settings
Including the seed number, and thus if everything's fine the placements and hash will match
The url was you said?
Does it "kill" the sync if we have different mods enabled?
Like, 1 more mod?
Even if it has nothing to do with rando?
Like a reskin mod
No, that shouldn't affect the sync
We don't see each other in the game despite we did everything correctly and we were also in the same room
This happens correctly, the top right does indeed display both names and ready players is 2
But when the game actually starts we are not "living together"
Also if it can help I think enemies are different between us
Itemsync doesn't do that. If yiu want to see each other you'll also need to use hkmp
We have it
Then it sounds like you didn't properly connect to the server for some reason

- 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.
Public Servers:
General use (PVP enabled)

PORT: 26951
Requires HkmpPouch```
```ml
Infection Tag
IP: tag.hkmp.org
PORT: 26950

*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!*

There's no way doing 1 fucking run is so hard and stressful
I did everything flawlessly
Is multiworld needed?
Well generally it's not but you chose to fo something slightly complex. And no offense but if you dud it flawlessly it would be working lol
Multiworld is not needed. That's a separate rando mode
We had the same seeds and code and shit, and the room said there were 2 people in it
Is there a way to check if hkmp is working too?
Also waits, this isn't "true" co-op in a sense
Indeed
Like isn't there a version with the breakable objects actually reacting
No
And all the other things
Best you can do is itemsync and ghosthunter
Uhhhh... I think this is a Hallownest Vocalized thing but uh... what do you give the Colosseum "Precious" guy
the readme might have hints or smth but if u wanna know ||delicate flower|| 
If you can't see each other, as you said, then it's not working
would be interesting if there was a hollowpoint or that skilltree mod server (even tho hollowpoint is a rough start...)
Most mods that have their own servers have active devs, and generally more replayability than Hollow Point (dunno about the skill tree one)
That's not something I can do...
You're intended to have QoL
Yes, it should skip needing to absorb dreamers

I uninstalled hollow knight to make room for a different game and recently reinstalled it however none of my mods are working now Iāve tried uninstalling them and then reinstalling anyone know what the problem could be?
I donāt mod very often just for skins and enemy health bars so Iām not sure what I should do :/
Assuming you're using Scarab that's something that can happen sometimes, the most reliable way to avoid that is to use Lumafly instead

What does the dreamer item do in HK rando ?
gives you one of the 3 dreams done
Any one ?
not sure about that

?tag error
How to fix Installer Errors
- Make sure Hollow Knight is CLOSED.
- Make sure that the Installer isn't in your Downloads folder (Desktop or a folder on the same drive as your game install is best).
- If the installer is in a
.zip, then you must extract it (tutorial: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/910762350267744276/1135824458041540629/image.png), and move all files to the new folder. - Right-click the installer file, and select "Run as Administrator".
Still not working
Also make sure that isn't being blocked by an antivirus. In some rare cases you need to launch Scarab once first before being able to launch Lumafly, so that's also something you can try
Ok i will download it
And if that still doesn't work, create a post in #1057825333841240104 and include the requested info from https://discord.com/channels/283467363729408000/1090079233520451714

Has anyone here done Kindly Isma?
hello, i have a little question about the mod : Transcende which adds Charms into the game
can it be used on an old save, or do you have to make a new one so the new charms spawn in ?
thank you in advance !
You'll need a new save to get them to spawn in their normal locations. DebugMod's "give all charms" button might be able to give them directly though
thank you very much !
it does indeed
Is this a good Pale Prince build?
I kinda have no other option
Oh wait, I could take MoP and Grubsong away for Soul Eater
Have you done Pale Prince?
You shouldnt use it unless youre struggling imo
Quick Slash isn't helpful against it
I never reached those
And never reached those either
Falsw
If it doesnt help ur not doing dmg at all
And thats a whole different problem
Bc I'm dodging (trying to at least)
And im obviously suggesting damage tanking 
Look you can use any build or even charmless
You can do it w/o qs
But saying it doesn't help is just wrong
ummmm...
This entire room is just gone...
Was gonna enter from deepnest but realized that's impossible...
Gone how?
It's just gone... it's void
Until I figure out how to not die against PP, this will be my build
Probably make a #1057825333841240104 post with more details. (Everything requested in the faq)
I'm so close to make a full life build
I solvd that in 5 seconds...
wow
Apparently the Mantis Lord dream fight mod I had got triggered when I defeat the Mantis lords... which for some reason deletes the whole room
The mod Mantis Gods
I just found the best charm of hollow point...
Is it possible to set the gameās refresh rate to a different option than the one already provided? I have a monitor with a 165Hz refresh rate, and Iād like to cap the gameās refresh rate to something similar or slightly higher.

do i post questions about mods in here or in modding help?
if the question is about some technical error with a mod or something not working then modding help
This sounds like dreamgate invulerability, which is a vanilla bug. You need to quit out to fix it
pale prince is like rad pv
No
just use strength qs steadybody
yes it is
you play safe like rad pv
its boring
with the white trail it forces you to play like radpv
I did charmless Rad PV, I still die in less than a minute against the Prince
trust me man i know pv
So do I
anyway i can send you a clear

I kinda need a breakdown on Pale Prince
im going to dm you ok

why is deploying still blocked?
You're most likely in a room considered "unsafe", ie that might glitch/softlock your game if you bench inside. If you think benchwarp is wrong you can enable "allow deploy in unsafe rooms" from Benchwarp's settings (those in options -> mods)
And usually all rooms in the dream realm are considered unsafe except white palace and godhome outside of fights/pantheons

As there any way to make HKVocalized not break Pale Court
Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. They're not (currently) designed to work together (nor is Pale Court vocalized, so it doesn't really make sense to play them together)

how did I mess up that formatting 
Awesome thanks!
formatting fixed. If you need help about finding your file, check this:
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

can someone help me download mods on proton linux later? i really need help editing a save file / implementing debugs
It's basically the same as any other system, although Linux is a bit finicky sometimes. Also you don't even need to install mods to edit your save file, although that's one of the options

Fixing Common issues on Linux/SteamDeck
- Controller Doesn't Work / [Some Mod] isn't working!
- By default (especially on SteamDeck) Steam may be using Proton and installed the Windows version of the game. This can have problems on it's own, but also causes issues because the Mod Installers will install the Linux version of the ModdingAPI, which isn't fully compatible with the Windows version.
- How to Fix: Go to the HK Library page, select Properties -> Compatibility, check "Force the use of a specific steam play compatibility tool", and select "Steam Linux Runtime" (Note: not the sniper or soldier versions)
- After this you'll need to select "Change Paths" in your Mod Installer and change it to the new install path (which you can get by using the "Browse Local Files" option in Steam, then reinstall your mods.
- Game crashes when when starting / while playing!
- Add
-force-openglto the steam launch arguments. Note: This can be a problem even if playing Vanilla, but it is commonly seen when Modding because of the greater resources used.
- Add
- Mods not saving correctly / loading correctly
- This can happen if the Permissions in your Hollow Knight install get messed up. You can fix this by making sure that the current user (or all users) have permissions for the Hollow Knight install directory and subdirectory & files. If you are unfamiliar with how to do this, then you can open terminal, use
CD "~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/"to get to the Steam Apps directory, and then usesudo chmod -R 777 "Hollow Knight"to update the permissions for the install so that all users can access it.

It should be generating a crash log, probably make a help post including that
where would i find it?
Mine show up in the folder where I have lumafly, there's another spot a different log generates but I don't remember where the 2nd spot is
its just an exe?
i decided its time to lumafly on pc
ive had it on the laptop with 0 issues
it wasnt in a folder too
oh yeah and i did put it in a folder and didnt see any crashlogs appear there
i understand that it might be simple, it's more that certain user interfaces make me anxious because i have some processing issues
Ping isn't needed thanks. If you have questions you can always ask of course, but people help as they have time here, so asking for someone to help you "later" without even specifying when that is, isn't going to get much response
I crashed a pantheon 
I guess wait for someone who knows where the other log is, or go back thru help posts from the last couple weeks and find the mention 
i searched for "lumafly crashes/doesnt work" and the only thing i found was open scarab
i had scarab tho for like years(incredebly old version yea)
but still
also a thing is,for everybody it just doest respond
for me its literally open for half a second,the window doesnt even have time to appear
simmilar things happen when something is missing in PATH
idk what that'd be tho
Dudeš
It will still pong sadly
aw man
The Lumafly log is in a folder in appdata somewhere called "HKinstaller" iirc
i was less so asking for someone to help me ālaterā as much as I wanted to see if someone is familiar with modding hollow knight on linux
%appdata%/../Roaming\HKModInstaller
Just make a help post and explain your problems? That being said, proton isn't recommended for HK modding

Is it weird or a problem that mine just show up in my lumafly folder?
how do i add a skin using ck+?
fox
roma
im redownloading hk because new computer
There's only one skin that uses ck+ so unless you're specifically using zagknight, just use regular ck.
Also CK+ isn't standalone even for zagknight, regular CK is a dependency & installing skins is the same
Did you put Lumafly in the same folder that Scarab was in? And/or are those old files?
That path is where the proper log file is, and afaik current Lumafly doesn't create the crash logs where the exe is located? But maybe it still does if it isn't able to write to the main log file 
Yes (scarab location ... or at lest scarab+?) & no (old files). Although thankfully I don't get crashes super often, most recent on is from September
Interesting. I don't think that I've ever had a log generate in the exe folder 
But yeah, those are still separate from the main log file
(I think this is scarab+ at the bottom, not actual old scarab
Because the folder is still called .... Scarab Plus 
is there uh... a mod that lets you name save files?
that is a feature of MoreSaves

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.

*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!*
Might say in the readme? But yeah I think there is a cap, and it increases slower at higher amounts
I mean im guessing they made a function for it, and if its something like round down (5 + log(current geo)) while there is technically no cap in practive it will stall very quickly

If i mod in skins can i still get steam achievements
?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.
Thank you
pale court moment
Either, so better have lumafly
Then get decoration master
Then get the map file from a youtube video or the modding server (link in the pins)
(The Deco Master map drive is in the pins too)
I'm gaining more respect for Carefree Melody as I'm fighting modded bosses
Its only really useful for them:blep:
true
Using the debug mod, is there any way to remove items from your inventory? I accidently gave myself maximum pale ore and couldn't figure out how to remove it, or is there another mod that can do this?
