ok so I wont install it, thanks !!

faint hull
#

It seems to be an issue with the Linux build. Changing it to Proton fixed the bug here

pulsar beacon
#

Goddamit…
I’ll lose my save file probably

faint hull
#

If it's in Steam Cloud, this shouldn't happen

#

Steam just install the Windows version and gets your save from the cloud. Mine was kept

#

I wish there was a place to report bugs. It looks like a lot of people are experiencing this one

pulsar beacon
#

But the last time I put proton on it, it asked me to set my settings, so I just assumed it didn’t save to the cloud

faint hull
#

That happened to me, but my save was there

#

as a precaution, you can also backup the files manually

do we got a relsei knight for silksong? it would be fun

Don't make a patch for casualization!

everyone who whines online, they whine online. Normal players play. Everyone who whines doesn't really need the game, maximum 1 hour a week. I assure you, this is all nonsense.

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
  • Right-click the installer file, and select "Run as Administrator"
  • If Lumafly is automatically closing, you may be missing a system file to open it. This is currently easily fixed by running the older installer, Scarab once.
    • -# Note: it's recommended to use Lumafly overall, as Scarab has some long term issues that are fixed by Lumafly.

Hollow Knight Crashes upon opening after installing mods ⚠️

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

  • "Hollow Knight isn't responding"
    • This isn't actually a crash, you just need to wait and let the game load. This is common with mods that have a lot of Pre-loading (like Pale Court, Enemy Randomizer, WeaverCore, and mods that load a lot of skins/audio).
  • Your game patch doesn't match your installer
    • Modding is now done on patch 1.5.78+, required by all current installers. If you're on Steam, make sure your Beta is set to "None"
    • "Mod Installer" (Zote) and Mod Installer 2 work with version 1.4.3.2, and should no longer be used. Tutorials saying to use these are outdated.
    • There aren't installers for other patches, like 1.2.2.1. For speedrunning mod help, type ?tag 1221 into chat for more info.
  • Something didn't install correctly
    • Right-Click the installer, and select "Run as Administrator"
    • Ensure that the installer isn’t in a .zip file (if you got it as a .zip, you'll need to Extract it)
    • Make sure that the Installer is out of your Downloads folder
  • You're on Linux/Steamdeck
    • Add -force-opengl to the steam launch options.
  • Your game is cracked/pirated hollowpirate
    • Piracy is not supported in most communities for games, and discussing it is against Discord Community Guidelines. Mods aren't considered compatible with pirated copies, which will not get support in the main servers.
    • Modding is only supported on the official computer versions from Steam/GoG/Xbox Games.
    • If you do not have a supported version, please get one and you will get support with modding. Requesting help with unsupported versions may result in moderation action.
    • Hollow Knight goes on sale regularly, and you can keep an eye on this website for when it is: https://isthereanydeal.com/game/hollowknight/

ahhhhh modding used to be on the other beta that's probably it

tough bay
#

hey everyone 🙂 anyone willing to help me mod silksong? I downloaded a mod and cant seem to make it work

obtuse roost
#

is there a bepinex fork that works for hk/silksong's engine specifically?

obtuse roost
viral bridge
#

just download the newest version of Bephinex and it will work

obtuse roost
#

alright. i was having issues, but it was probably just me

#

5.x, or 6+ pre?

tough bay
#

yea i did that im just not sure where to put the files

viral bridge
obtuse roost
#

why?

viral bridge
#

you need to download the x86 version which pertains to your computer

#

so example if you have windows it would be the windows x86 5.4.23

tough bay
#

yea i got that far

viral bridge
tough bay
#

i can share my screen with you, nexus

sorry do you mean vortex?

yes vortex

#

its called vortex

tough bay
#

oh ok 🙂 i havent tried that yet!

#

lets see...

obtuse roost
#

your account has existed for 5 years...

#

anyway, by "the latest version", do you mean the latest beta, or stable build?

viral bridge
#

here do you have a windows?

#

i can just send you the download link

obtuse roost
viral bridge
#

it requires a 64 bit processor but runs 86

#

you can download that 64 bit if you want to thats up to you

obtuse roost
#

strange..

viral bridge
#

im just trying to help you find the website, but still the process is the same regardless

obtuse roost
#

I use windows, yes. I am still confused why I should download from some third party, rather than the official source's release page.

viral bridge
#

im not trying to scam you or anything this is just how i did it but if you want to experiment or do it your way feel free

#

you can download it from the offical source page but most people cant find it

obtuse roost
viral bridge
#

anyways once you download either the 64 processor or the 86 processor the bepinex will pop up as a seperate file

#

not in silksong

#

so youre going to need to extract it

tough bay
#

@viral bridge .NET is preventing vortex to work :/

obtuse roost
#

I have already done that

#

I got bepinex running

viral bridge
#

ok thanks i appreciate that

obtuse roost
#

renaming winhttp to where it can find it, breaks the ui

#

and is it not working ? whats the issue

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.
      • If using a Playstation/Nintendo controller, see this information.
  • Game crashes or has visual glitches when starting / while playing!
    • Add -force-opengl to 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.
  • 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 use sudo chmod -R 777 "Hollow Knight" to update the permissions for the install so that all users can access it.

Insider findings from the game files:

||— An image of the Knight’s ashes was found — proof he is indeed present.
— Grimm has returned with his fire magic — could this hint at a new role?
— Hollow Knight Prime might be a hidden superboss, similar to Gods & Glory.
— The game contains secret achievements never mentioned officially.
— Lost Lace is not just Lace, but a separate, more powerful version with tentacles and teleports.
— The mysterious Song Knight appears — a new concept tied to knights and songs.||

|| The game will either have DLC with pantheons, or the developers simply forgot to remove the assets of the pale knight. ||

Heya! Most Unity modding uses BepInEx's Plugin api, Harmony/HarmonyX patching and C#. There currently is no modding api so there will be alot of manual class handling from the game's Mono AssemblyCSharp.dll, I'm working on a modding api right now though, but if you wanna get into modding right now you could definetively try, but don't try to make the most crazy mods to start, start simple like printing to the console and go from there :D

Hello, is there any mod that removes all visuals that people usually deem so beautiful in this game? A friend of mine has problems with them due to a disorder that hinders him from focusing on the things relevant (for example what is background, what is foreground) and stresses him out. I'm curious if there's a way to make it playable for him by removing particles and maybe less distracting backgrounds or something.

I believe that the Bepinex dev is working on fixing some compatibility stuff. There are instructions someone posted yesterday on the Modding server for getting it working, but they mentioned that it was going to be rolled into something.

When the main modding tools are out, it'll probably be compatible

  • and yes its a bepinex plugin, the reason Im making SilkApi is that multiple patches and changes will make mods incompatible, which is bad. SilkAPI aims to centralize these common pitfalls and make plugins compatible.

In that case look on Lumafly. I don't remember what the mod is called, but there's a mod that lets you adjust a lot of the visuals in the game, and I believe that toggling forgetting foreground stuff is part of it. And there's a dedicated No Particles mod

Hey there, I know it might be frowned upon but I was wondering if there is a safe reliable trainer or engine out there that I could use to get past a single chokepoint I'm stuck at. It will basically unlock 4 new things for me but I just can't beat it for the life of me and I'm getting too old to spend another 2-3 hours today attempting it. Besides I just got out of the hospital, so not the best for my heart lol. Any recommendations?

Modding and Achievements

  • Mods do not normally prevent you from getting Achievements. However, since a recent Steam update, some players report not obtaining them.
    • If you are missing achievements, opening the game in vanilla and setting at a bench may sync them again. You can also get them using the HollowKnightAchievementManager mod.
    • 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, such as skipping something with QoL, then you won't get that achievement. Some mods that rely on SFCore such as Hallownest Vocalized can sometimes prevent achievements from working.
  • In some cases, achievements are still earned, but the pop-ups do not come up when modding.

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

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

  • Use Lumafly (it has additional support for this version that other installers currently don't have)
  • Right-Click the Lumafly.exe and select "Run as Administrator"
    • It should automatically find the install and ask if it's correct. If it doesn't find it, then you will need to link it to the Hollow Knight.exe found in C:\XboxGames\Hollow Knight\Content by default.
  • After installing / installing any mods, wait about a minute before launching the game (this is because Windows does a weird thing for Xbox Games things, and it makes copies of files).
    If you have further issues, then please see #1090079233520451714 and create a #1057825333841240104 post if needed.

Important paths

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

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.

That's why I wish it could just be set manually, I've run across a number of games with faulty autodetect. Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth Complete I often needed to boot it up twice or more to properly detect my controller as PS4.

Hollow Knight was also a bit unreliable on that if I didn't use a mod to force the PS4 pronpts.

That's why I want a similar mod for Silksong, because my experience has been that autodetect has been an unreliable way of reading what kind of Controller I'm using.

Editing save files

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

  • MoreSaves Mod | Install
  • With the MoreSaves mod installed, you can edit save files from the in-game Menu. Either from the Main Menu or Pause Menu, go to Options > Mods > MoreSaves to edit save files in game.
  • QoL mod | Install
    • If you open a save file with QoL installed, you'll have an extra file called user#.json (where # is the file number), which can be edited using Notepad or a similar text editor. If you do not know where your saves are located, type ?tag saves for more information
  • DebugMod | Install
    • While not an intended purpose, you can edit some parts of your save file using Debug, such as Nail Damage, and those changes will remain even after uninstalling the mod.
  • Website
    • Find the Save File, upload it to the website, and make the edits. It will Download as save file for Slot 1, so rename it if needed. If you do not know where your saves are located, type ?tag saves for more information

Can we seriously start encouraging silksong modders to open source their mods/plugins. In the first Hollow Knight open source was the norm. It seems that almost all the mods on nexusmods etc don't have the source code posted so whenever the inevitable updates break things they will likely be lost if the modder doesn't update them.

nexus won't be the standard, it's just where mods are posted until the standard is established

Im curious about this as well or like let me have infinite money mod. Im currently frustrated with the end game. I do not use toold cause they use the currency (the rocks, I forgot what they are called). I do not want to go farm it when I run out so I never use them

So Id like a mod that gives me infinite currency so I can use the tools the game has given us. Im nerfing myself by not using them

I saw one giving rosary beads on nexusmods but Im not sure if it works and was a first time poster. Comments are mixed. Rosary beds work cause you can transfer them to the other currency

yo guys how do i get skins for the custom knight mod?

fathom wigeonBOT

Custom Knight

This is the mod for reskinning things in the game

Resources

Common issues

  • If the Skin List is covering up other mods, you can toggle it with Del or Fn+Del. You can edit this Keybind in the Custom Knight menu.
  • If your skin doesn’t show up in the menu, ensure that you extracted it from the zip/rar/etc it came in (tutorial: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1207486627124093019/1403869873192571024/i.png).
  • If your skin doesn’t work, go to Options > Mods > Custom Knight > Advanced > Fix My Skins. After this you may need to click Reload in the previous menu.
    • Upgraded Dream Shield (UDS) breaks Custom Knight’s first launch. To use both mods at once: 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 White Boxes ◻️, restart your game. You may also need to apply skins in a small room like a stag station.
  • Ensure that you apply skins from the Pause Menu when your save file is loaded. Skins applied from the Main Menu only affect new files.

Troubleshooting

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

  • Where you installed the skin
  • With the directory bar visible
  • With the skin images visible

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.

Apple could not verify that Installer is free of malware

Type ?tag macos into chat for more info.

Installer vanishes after downloading / loads a blank screen

This is commonly because one or more issues:

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

Modding and Achievements

  • Mods do not normally prevent you from getting Achievements. However, since a recent Steam update, some players report not obtaining them.
    • If you are missing achievements, opening the game in vanilla and setting at a bench may sync them again. You can also get them using the HollowKnightAchievementManager mod.
    • 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, such as skipping something with QoL, then you won't get that achievement. Some mods that rely on SFCore such as Hallownest Vocalized can sometimes prevent achievements from working.
  • In some cases, achievements are still earned, but the pop-ups do not come up when modding.

(Silksong related) ||hey all, is it possible to add in Hornet’s HK voice lines (like Shaw, Edino, Hegale, etc.) on skill use or taunt in Silksong?||

haughty forum
#

|||I found that Hornet has 7 different "yells" in Hollow Knight and I'm going to swap them in for her 10 "heavy attacks" in SS|||

#

||I'll upload to NexusMods when I figure out the last step I'm stuck on||

hoary hatch
#

Noticed there was a multiplayer mod for hollow knight and was wondering if it is compatible with the randomizer. I have some mod development experience with other games so I know that even if two mods don’t seem like they’d conflict at first glance, there might be some internal thing that needs to be adjusted to make it work.

lunar root
#

It is compatible with randos yeah, and you can use itemsync to syncronize item pickups between all players

neat inlet
#

Is it possible to rip the sprites from the game yet? I'd like to do some art studies of the BG assets

hoary hatch
lunar root
#

Well rando and hkmp arent linked, they just both exist at the same time and neither tries to kill the other, so if you use the same seed its basically two people playing two different randos that just happen to have the items at the same location

hoary hatch
#

Ok yea I was worried it was like that

lunar root
#

With itemsync thats also not a concern because if someone picks up something, the other one automatically gets it
Unless i misunferstood the question

deep glen
#

Are modders going to be able to change/add crests and the way they work?

hoary hatch
lunar root
#

Yeah then what i said above

hoary hatch
#

Unless itemsynch also correctly sets the flag to mark it as collected for both players

#

Another thing I am wondering, does using mods block steam achievements? From my understanding, you would need to design the mod its self to specifically do that. Just don’t want to get like a really lucky rando and end up getting one of the speedrun achievements from it.

lunar root
#

Yeah most mods dont block achievements, some could skip achievement triggers like qol, but they shouldnt outright prevent them
Except for the mod that disables achievement and probably has that as a name

  • 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. "

So what I am hearing is that some mods skip them but it isn’t 100% perfect

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

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

  • Use Lumafly (it has additional support for this version that other installers currently don't have)
  • Right-Click the Lumafly.exe and select "Run as Administrator"
    • It should automatically find the install and ask if it's correct. If it doesn't find it, then you will need to link it to the Hollow Knight.exe found in C:\XboxGames\Hollow Knight\Content by default.
  • After installing / installing any mods, wait about a minute before launching the game (this is because Windows does a weird thing for Xbox Games things, and it makes copies of files).
    If you have further issues, then please see #1090079233520451714 and create a #1057825333841240104 post if needed.

Important paths

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

HKMP (Hollow Knight Multiplayer)

How it works

HKMP puts a copy of each player into each other players world.
Enemies have separate health and will usually be in different places; Items/abilities must be collected separately; and Breakable objects must be broken by each player. Player attacks happen in each player's world, damaging any enemies/players it comes in contact with. A player is only hurt by the enemies in their own world. This page explains how you can use other mods and addons to synchronize some aspects, and improve your experience.

Public Servers:

General use (PVP enabled)

I’ve been looking at that as well, it would take a lot of work and it would probably get done by someone smarter than me, but there is already a ||godsglory start menu button|| when making a new game. It’s hidden and just launches the game like normal but there’s already some foundation for it so it could definitely be done. Although I have no idea how to make it I’m sure someone will eventually

TL;DR you need a special program to "unpack" the spritesheet into its seperate animations, and then you need to make sure that they're smooth and its repacked correctly

So, I noticed the game was made in unity and I have experience modding other unity games so naturally I went and started using DnSpy to look at the decompiled code. While doing so I noticed an enum named HeroType with values indicating you can play as KNIGHT, HORNET, and ZOTE. I did some research and found that the Zote option could have been a thing but the funding goal for kickstarter wasnt reached (as for Hornet it was pretty obvious what happened). I am wondering if these respective characters have sufficent data associated with them to be playable if force loaded or if they are purely placeholder values (or anywhere in between). Genuinely curious.

  • If your skin doesn’t show up in the menu, ensure that you extracted it from the zip/rar/etc it came in (tutorial: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1207486627124093019/1403869873192571024/i.png).
  • If your skin doesn’t work, go to Options > Mods > Custom Knight > Advanced > Fix My Skins. After this you may need to click Reload in the previous menu.
    • Upgraded Dream Shield (UDS) breaks Custom Knight’s first launch. To use both mods at once: 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 White Boxes ◻️, restart your game. You may also need to apply skins in a small room like a stag station.
  • Ensure that you apply skins from the Pause Menu when your save file is loaded. Skins applied from the Main Menu only affect new files.

Troubleshooting

You must include a screenshot that shows:

Are the mods on Nexus mods stable? Never modded anything before, so I'm a bit insecure. But I really want the respawn anywhere mod, the runbacks in this game are atrocious

can anybody explain exactly which files i should copy and rename in order to copy a save file from slot 1 to slot 2 in silksong? i would assume its the same as hk in that i need to change user1 to user2, but theres also a new Restore_Points1 folder which i assume is the new rollback feature in silksong. so should i just copy that folder and simply rename it to Restore_Points2? and what about this shared.dat file? im on macOS if that matters

does anyone know if HKMP is down or will it just not let me join

# neat atlas can anybody explain exactly which files i should copy and rename in order to cop...

Im gonna take a guess that the share.dat contains stuff like achievements, steel soul being unlocked…
As to what to do with your saves, switching every 1 to a 2 is sure to work, but also, you can copy the whole folder, put it somewhere safe, do whatever it is that you want, then copy it back in
Like don’t be afraid that you may break something, just copy the whole thing, experiment, then if something goes wrong, you have the backup

okay thanks, i was hoping to get an exact answer so i didnt have to experiment with it myself, but ill do exactly that

HKMP (Hollow Knight Multiplayer)

How it works

HKMP puts a copy of each player into each other players world.
Enemies have separate health and will usually be in different places; Items/abilities must be collected separately; and Breakable objects must be broken by each player. Player attacks happen in each player's world, damaging any enemies/players it comes in contact with. A player is only hurt by the enemies in their own world. This page explains how you can use other mods and addons to synchronize some aspects, and improve your experience.

Public Servers:

General use (PVP enabled)
 IP:    hkmp.org
 PORT:  26950
Requires HkmpPouch```
```ml
Co-op (PVP disabled)

 PORT:  26951

```ml
Infection Tag

*Important note: "Invalid Addons" means that you have extra HKMP addons that can't be used on the server. Pouch servers can have any Addons that say that they require Pouch, but you otherwise cannot use others!*

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

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

  • Use Lumafly (it has additional support for this version that other installers currently don't have)
  • Right-Click the Lumafly.exe and select "Run as Administrator"
    • It should automatically find the install and ask if it's correct. If it doesn't find it, then you will need to link it to the Hollow Knight.exe found in C:\XboxGames\Hollow Knight\Content by default.
  • After installing / installing any mods, wait about a minute before launching the game (this is because Windows does a weird thing for Xbox Games things, and it makes copies of files).
    If you have further issues, then please see #1090079233520451714 and create a #1057825333841240104 post if needed.

Important paths

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

Save Files

What do save files looks like?

  • Each Hollow Knight save file is a user#.dat where # is the save slot for the file
  • You can rename user3.dat to user1.dat to set it to your first save slot
  • You can keep a copy of all of your save files by copy and pasting them into a different folder on your computer

Reverting Backups

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

Modded Saves

  • A modded save may also have a user#.modded.json (and similarly named backup). This file and the user#.dat are part of the save

Where are the files?

  • On windows, the default path for Save Files is:
    • %appdata%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\
    • You should just copy and paste that path directly into the File Explorer path bar at the top.
  • For other operating systems (and Xbox Games), type ?tag saves into chat

I need a specific type of save file

Editing save files

  • MoreSaves: With the MoreSaves mod installed, you can edit save files from the Menu, by going to Options > Mods > MoreSaves
  • QoL: Opening a save with QOL installed will create an extra save file called user#.json, which can be edited using Notepad or a similar text editor
  • DebugMod: While not an intended purpose, you can edit some parts of your save file using Debug, such as Nail Damage, and those changes will remain even after uninstalling the mod

# viral bridge do we have any updates on new characters for silksong

a knight skin usually takes, ever for the absolute fastest people... about 2 months to make
the tools to make silksong skins do not exist rn, people are still playing the game and not skin making rn
and the sprite sheet for hornet is a good 70% bigger than the knight one (at least)
so like
there have been no updates for skins for silksong today, and will not be any for a good short while
