If you are on a laptop, you may need to do fn + f1

My desktop doesn't have an FN button just F1

is there any way to get a death counter for base hollow knight? doing a challenge and need it

Yeah there's a Damage Counter/Death Counter mod, I don't remember if it's called one way or the other

But it tracks both deaths and damage taken

what randomizer mods do you guys recommend (unrelated)

it's super overwhelming

**If your game is cracked / pirated **

• Piracy is not supported in most communities for games (including this one), and discussing it is against Discord Community Guidelines. Mods are not considered compatible with pirated copies, and you will not get troubleshooting support in any of the main community servers for them.
• Modding is only supported on the official computer versions from Steam, GoG, or Xbox Games. (Console versions, and unofficial versions are not supported)
• If you do not have a supported version, then please get one and then you will get support with modding the game. Asking for assistance with unsupported versions may result in moderation action.

[lyric mural]

Randomizer 4 is the rando mod, most of the others are connections that add other things to the pool of items that get randomized

[crude rapids]

What are the differences between scarab and lumafly, also whihc one is better rn

[unique kindle]

Lumafly is Scarab on steroids, with less bugs and more features. Keep in mind that in order to use either you have to downpatch the game as of today

i need to know how to do it on xbox app

[lone condor]

its not possible

microslop is a bitch and doesnt want users modifying files in the games from their app store

[vagrant orbit]

I mean, assuming they mean Xbox Games app on PC, then it literally is possible, and the answer was already posted

[lone condor]

wait whjat

[vagrant orbit]

Notably you would probably want to use Cogfly over the other options, as the others have worse support for Xbox Games versions for whatever reason

[lone condor]

i just assume it wansnt because every other game i have on that app isnt possible to mod unless the developers have their own system

[vagrant orbit]

Modding on Xbox Games is definitely not ideal, because it's really easily missed up due to how Microsoft handles it

I personally wouldn't recommend it over Steam

[lone condor]

this means i can actually skip the bullshit arena fight

[fathom wigeon]

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.

Yup

Sounds about right lmao

i am trying to find Newborn Spring 2.0 skin, but i get this instead

My question is

Why exactly would a minor update break the api? I mean i know tc code might as well be 🍝 but im just curious as to exactly what

[unique kindle]

Spaghetti aside, I think the Unity version is quite different since there were quite a few years in between

[dense wigeon]

Yeah I think I heard between 1578 & the 1512 patches there's like 4 unity versions

Usually yes but currently no, until modding is updaated to latest patch

[iron swallow]

Ok tysm

[elder juniper]

toma no cu

[late lodge]

minor update
Lets just say TC does not adhere to semver

-# notably 1.4 to 1.5 was also such a pain due to a large jump unity versions, so you can use that as a par imo

You can just put it on your desktop

is this mod in any modloaders [ i couldn't find it on cogfly and r2modman ]
https://www.nexusmods.com/hollowknightsilksong/mods/92

[vagrant orbit]

if you can't find it, then you can manually install it.
In Modman you can use the "Import local mod" option in the settings.
With Cogfly you would need to open your profile folder, then manually add it in the same structure (ie or the dll in a folder there)

[bleak delta]

thank you so much

Because Nexus mods are not supported by the community. There are a lot of problems with Nexus as a platform, and we don't want to encourage people to use it.

it's easy to use

[bleak delta]

in cogfly do i have to put it in dll form or folder
does both work?

[vagrant orbit]

Please stop pinging me

[vagrant orbit]

As I already stated, you would put the dll in a folder in the profile (you can see how the other mods you installed with Cogfly look and copy that structure)

[vagrant orbit]

Nexus is kinda hostile to its userbase:

• Players need to have accounts, and are throttled unless they pay
• There's nothing requiring modding code to be visible, meaning that things can be maliciously hidden in mods there
• Devs aren't able to remove their own mods from Nexus, which feels pretty bad to many developers

[bleak delta]

oh

why do i keep fucking forgetting to turn ping off

[bleak delta]

thanks

[vagrant orbit]

There are some other problems, that similarly stem from Nexus basically acting like Fandom, where it knows that it's very big for a somewhat niche thing, so it assumes that people won't leave it; but we don't want to contribute to it being used

[bleak delta]

understandable i hate fandom and if nexus is anything like it
I'll try not to use it

[willow cipher]

Guys i didnt get any pings yet. but can we use mods in the newer version or no?

[rough bay]

Hello! Been playing Hollow Knight for quite a while, but still not an expert. So, can anyone recommend good mods that aren't just "let's make the game harder"? I know about rando and enjoy it. Tried pale court and it's amazing, but still leaning into the "hollow knight but harder" territory. Any tips?

[wintry turtle]

Is scarab / lumafly updated?

[rough bay]

You talking to me?

[wintry turtle]

I’m asking anyone

[wintry turtle]

Did you down patch to mod the game

Cause I can’t down patch

[rough bay]

Haven't played modded in a while, just downpatched

[rough bay]

Are you using steam?

[wintry turtle]

No

[rough bay]

What are you using to play the game? I probably can't help you, but more info is gonna help others do so

[wintry turtle]

Xbox app on pc

[dense wigeon]

It's is the api that needs updating, not the installers, and no. You can keep an eye on channel pins or announcements in the modding server

[rough bay]

What about downpatching then? any guides for downpatching on different installers for HK?

[dense wigeon]

Steam & gog can downpatch but gamepass unfortunately cannot

(Downpatching on steam is pinned as its the most common platform)

[peak fractal]

is it taking longer than usual this time?

[dense wigeon]

updating the API? No. last time (1432 > 1578) it took 3 months

[peak fractal]

oh

hope it doesn't go longer this time then

[rough bay]

I feel like the devs should add a HK version requirement to lumafly, so it doesn't try to start on currentpatch, fail and consequently corrupt stuff. That shouldn't be too hard.

[dense wigeon]

or people could just read

[arctic bone]

lumafly doesnt have the "skins" folder when i open it in the files but the video pinned in the forum says it should??

[red plinth]

run the game once with CK installed, folder will appear then

[arctic bone]

ive done that it still isnt there

[jade dawn]

hi

[inner barn]

You have to load into a save for the folder to generate

[rough bay]

You are gravely overrating people's capability to follow basic instructions. More than that though, people have already read the instructions, and they're not gonna read them again unless something prompts them to; You don't pre-emptively re-read the manual for a tool you have used before, expecting it to have changed.

[red plinth]

It says as soon as you boot up lumafly that its not supported on the latest patch.

like in lumafly itself

[rough bay]

Welp, I missed that, that invalidates my second point, and proves the first 🙃

[arctic bone]

do i boot up modded game or the regular frm my desktop then load into a save??

[dense wigeon]

Ping isn't needed thanks. But also, I don't know if knowing the version is something that lumafly can even do. It's just a tool. It does what you tell it, which is put files in a specific location. Not the programs fault if people tell it to do something they shouldn't

[rough bay]

Iirc all I did was set up bepinex, customizer, and customizer t2d. Sorry if this isn't the right channel for this ^_^"

I'm scared to dig around in the files because I'm not particularly well versed in this stuff and I'm worried I might make it worse

[foggy grove]

hey, so I'm new to the community and I was wondering if there are any lumafly mods that are "cheat" mods, you know like mods that make the game easier? I'm really struggling with the first hornet battle.

although if you're struggling with the first Hornet, you may not enjoy the game, as the game itself is largely about learning and building skill to overcome difficult battles

If you struggle in a fight, then you can always explore more and come back

HKMP (Hollow Knight Multiplayer)

• Easy Setup Guide (Important to read!)
• Video Guide 🎦
• How to use Skins | **Example Image: ** https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/910762350267744276/910765152725524480/HKMP_Skin_Example.png
• 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)
 IP:    hkmp.org
 PORT:  26950
Requires HkmpPouch```
```ml

 PORT:  26951
Requires HkmpPouch```
```ml
Infection Tag
 IP:    tag.hkmp.org
 PORT:  26950
Requires HKMP Tag and at least three players```
*Important note: "Invalid Addons" means that you have extra HKMP addons that can't be used on the server. Pouch servers can have any Addons that say that they require Pouch, but you otherwise cannot use others!*

• 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

Not working with Custom Knight skins!

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

[lunar root]

the readme explains it and why

[rough bay]

aight, thanks

then you can't kill THK either?

[dense wigeon]

nope! Radiance ending only

[rough bay]

Nice, always wanted to shoot the sun

I guess adding lead would eventually end the suns life early, just gonna need more bullets than exists on earth

[rough bay]

You see, people don't read. As a developer, you have to ask yourself "Do I want to spend time safeguarding things that are solved by common sense, or do I want to spend that time answering the same question a gazillion times"

[red plinth]

No amount of safeguarding will ever stop the gazillion questions. People will simply find a new way to not understand something.

[rough bay]

Hm, so Lumafly doesn't interract with the Hollow Knight code?

[dense wigeon]

it does not. it's just an installer

[rough bay]

That's true. I felt like version check would be pretty easy compared to screwing up mods from version conflicts, but I may be wrong. IDK Lumafly or HK code.

[void yew]

i am making a mod, do you know if there is an aera with sword asset ? or an ennemy sword asset which is good to plant in the ground ?

[rough bay]

Half the enemies have swords? Quirrels sword is in the ground at one point

[void yew]

okok but are they like "big sword" ?

[rough bay]

no, for that I'd check great husk sentry, Sly or THK

sly has the highest sword-to-body ratio

[void yew]

she is defiitelly too slow

i will seached

Have you completed the game?

Cause mods aren't generally recommended on a first playthrough (especially cause there are charms that do that exact thing)

guys how do i put thunderstore as administrator?

You were already told how to do that here #1487815594475651318 message

[undone dirge]

I already asked in #1057825333841240104, idk if i should ask again here but here it goes,

Whenever i launch the game on cogfly with the pantheon of pharloom mod, i always get this screen.

Clicking the green button and then trying to play disables my normal attacks

[undone dirge]

Nvm its the randomizer mod, not pantheon of pharloom

[lyric mural]

that screen randomizes the needle swing directions

[lyric mural]

Wait the text in the bracket at the top says that you changed the settings before so you can only look at it now

[undone dirge]

Oh

I remember messing around with it

[lyric mural]

Idk how sk mods work, did you start the save with rando?

[lean steppe]

2022😭😭😭😭😭

[undone dirge]

Well im trying it right now currently, shop looks the same but at the same time i cannot scroll down on shop menu

I got sharp pendant now and it wasnt randomized

[chilly sparrow]

how do i get skins, i have downloaded the skin but idk where to put the file

Custom Knight

This is the mod for reskinning things in the game

Resources

• Skin List by ColetteMSLP
  • ‎sᴋɪɴs ɴᴏᴛ ʏᴇᴛ ᴏɴ ᴛʜᴇ ʟɪsᴛ
• Skin Repository by Tadeas Jun
• Video Tutorial 🎦 by fireb0rn
• [How to use Enemy/Boss Skins](#modding-discussion message)
• Guide to Creating a Skin by HBKit

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

Why does Trial of Crusaders suddenly breaks into damaging you 2+ masks? I just had spikes dealing 4

[outer sparrow]

hi

Is there a mod that makes the "path of pain" infinite other than the QoL mod?

[dense wigeon]

You can use save states with debug, or mini save states assembly for runs, but other than that I don't think so.

(In most cases mods that do something another mod already does aren't generally made because it's a waste of effort)

[outer sparrow]

This mod has caused a conflict with other boss mods I downloaded.

[outer sparrow]

and how can i do that ?

[dense wigeon]

Ping isn't needed thanks. I've never heard of QoL causing a conflict with anything, it could easily be something else. There's likely an up to date save state tutorial in the speedrun server.

Hi all, I've been meaning to ask: do any of you have news on if Lumafly is getting updated to support also the latest version of HK?
Is there someone working on it and/or is there some kind of estimate on how much time it will take?

[dense wigeon]

yes, it's being worked on. It's likely to take several weeks to months.

[steep spindle]

will downpatching my save file to use a custom skin mod mess up my save file?

[lucid thicket]

It shouldn't, but generally speaking making a backup before modding is never a bad idea

?tag savefaq

[fathom wigeon]

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

• 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 .rar or other archived format, then you will need to extract it with something like 7zip

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
• Website: https://bloodorca.github.io/hollow/

[steep spindle]

yeah i made a backup just incase. appreciate it!

[bold hornet]

Hey I've got a question about the pogo speedrunning trick for a Youtube vid I'm making - the trick where you pogo off your own "Abyss Shriek". Been using the debug tool and your nail hitbox and Abyss Shriek hitboxes never actually connect so Im not sure how the player "pogos" off of anything. Could be a glitch unrelated to pogo at all. Cant attach a screenshot here but anyone mind me DMing them to pick their brain on it?

[lucid thicket]

You have to double jump before pogoing

That being said, speedrunners can most likely provide more details about shrogos

[bold hornet]

So I dont think its a pogo at all. I think its a straight up glitch that refreshes your angel (double) jump. I did a bunch of testing and at no point are you actually making contact with any hurtbox that is causing a pogo (like when you hit an enemy on the head with a downslash). You just double jump and attack at the same time and it refreshes your ability to double jump again. Or maybe im crazy and missing something

But I think it only works when you downslash and double jump, just like a pogo...but you aren't actually hitting anything. Like I thought the hitboxes were going to show an oversight where your downslash was going to make contact with the hitbox of the shriek but it doesnt come close

[lucid thicket]

Could also just be that the displayed hitboxes aren't perfectly accurate to what they actually are

If you were right people could just pogo the air without shriek

[bold hornet]

I was testing that too and the weapon hitbox are spot on. Maybe need to test the shriek one more. It must go lower that it shows visually

[honest basalt]

Is it possible to download mods directly off of cogfly or nah

[lucid thicket]

That's what cogfly is for so

  3. Double-Click the file
• Second you'll need to Verify the Integrity of your game files. You can use ?tag verify in chat to see how to do this in Steam.
• Third make sure that Lumafly isn't in your Downloads folder, then use Shift Right-Click on it and select Run as Administrator

am i just imagining things?

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

-# Note: this is for a PC. You cannot mod the game on Xbox consoles

⚠️ **Until the Modding API is updated, the Feb 5th 2026 update of HK broke modding on Xbox Games versions **⚠️

• Use Lumafly (it has additional support for this version)
  • Download: https://themulhima.github.io/Lumafly?download
  • Make sure that the Lumafly's exe isn't in Downloads. Ideally put it on your Desktop.
• 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.

do Lumafly works for silksong ?

No, lumafly is a mod installer for Hollow Knight, for silksong you can use Cogfly, or one of the thunderstore installers (Gale, r2modman)

where can i find progress on the silksong randomizer?

[neat tundra]

the ones that are out don't have proper logic, if you're using the most common one you can see in the description that you should be expecting softlocks

[weak spade]

im not using it i just wanted to know if there is one being worked on and if there is where could i see the current progress. good to know where it stands tho thanks

in order to make the proper one (with logic and stuff like randomizer 4), we first need to have the ItemChanger mod, and i'm pretty sure it is not out yet

Custom Knight

This is the mod for reskinning things in the game

Resources

• Skin List by ColetteMSLP
  • ‎sᴋɪɴs ɴᴏᴛ ʏᴇᴛ ᴏɴ ᴛʜᴇ ʟɪsᴛ
• Skin Repository by Tadeas Jun
• Video Tutorial 🎦 by fireb0rn
• [How to use Enemy/Boss Skins](#modding-discussion message)
• Guide to Creating a Skin by HBKit

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
• Example:

Thinking about doing Raging Conchfly. I'm nowhere near a coding expert, so I want to see if the code looks like something I could do anything with before seriously considering modding, but Raging Conchfly is such a cool boss that I would like to consider modding it.

Hello everyone, Is there a way to sync enemies in multiplayer?

Do yall have any ideas why my pale court mod îs bugging i alr defeated white defender 2 just in case

[dense wigeon]

?tag palecourt

[fathom wigeon]

Starting Pale Court

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

Known problems with Pale Court

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

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

Me and my friend are trying to do hkmp with item sync, and when he tries to join my item sync it shows "hash mismatch to the rest of the room please verify your settings" does anyone know how to fix this?

[neat tundra]

you need to have the exact same rando settings, seed and dependencies enabled, you can do that by sharing a code that can be found when you create your randoed save

?tag hkmpsync

Syncronizing Content in HKMP

The current version of HKMP Does not Synchronize things itself. Members of the HKMP Discord can opt-into using a testing beta of the next major HKMP update which does introduce an Entity and File Sync system.

• What you can Synchronize in the current version and How
• The HKMP Discord: https://discord.gg/KbgxvDyzHP

[odd root]

We shared the code but it didn't work

[zinc oxide]

I have the the skin installed I copied it to the skins folder but it won't work for some reason

Is the little radiance skin bigger rn?

[echo grotto]

does there exist a mod that makes uumuu's lightning more visible? i am constantly getting hit in godhome cause their lightning just blends so well into the surroundings

[flint gull]

how do i know wich mods that the achivments of and wich mods dont?

?tag achievements

[fathom wigeon]

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.

[flint gull]

oh ty

OH SRY

i forgot the ping thing

[dense wigeon]

If you mean bugged, no its not. If it doesn't work you installed it wrong.

Custom Knight

This is the mod for reskinning things in the game

• Skin List by ColetteMSLP

• Skin Repository by Tadeas Jun
• Video Tutorial 🎦 by fireb0rn
• [How to use Enemy/Boss Skins](#modding-discussion message)
• Guide to Creating a Skin by HBKit

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
• Example:

[dense wigeon]

I don't know if there's anything specifically for uumuu but you could try Palette Swapper and set a darker background with that

[dense wigeon]

If using the code still didn't match the hash my first guess is they're either missing a mod or they have an outdated version of something (very common when using scarab)

[pallid locust]

a

[dense wigeon]

Why the fuck do people do that

[fierce flame]

1. to lazy to sign in on browser (so they use the phone)
2. they don’t read the red text
3. Red text

[wraith hamlet]

Does anyone know if to use this I have to install both zips and put them in the same folder or what do I do?

[dense wigeon]

One is the skin, one is the hp bar

[fierce flame]

the other zip is for a separate mod (EnemyHPBar)

[dense wigeon]

Also you need to unzip to use

[wraith hamlet]

Ik but like do I put it int he same folder once I unzip

Sorry for ping 😭

[dense wigeon]

You have to set up the structure properly, that's covered in the enemy Hpbar readme

[fierce flame]

Hobart

[dense wigeon]

Honestly i can't remember which custom knight integrations do or do not work since I don't use them

[fierce flame]

i have never used that integration since it’s easier to just do it the normal way

[wraith hamlet]

So I don't need the hp bar for the skin to work?

[dense wigeon]

No (why would you?)

Like, even if it was part of the base skin, you can pick & choose which skin elements you want to use. All that's required for a custom skin is at least 1 spritesheet, everything is optional

[peak fractal]

do mods work now

[red plinth]

Enemy hp bar ck integration does work but I think its very slightly buggy, or was when I last used it. sometimes the hp bar skin wouldnt swap unless you reapplied the skin.

[peak fractal]

[dense wigeon]

Mods never stopped working, on the patch they were designed to work on

[peak fractal]

right right

[fierce flame]

pretty sure they are on gamepass

[dense wigeon]

For some reason this is a topic I just enjoy being pedantic on lol

[mellow timber]

Can i get the pale court charms from debug mod?

[dense wigeon]

if the mod has added that integration

[mellow timber]

Ok

Well that didnt work

Any other ways i can get the charms?

[dense wigeon]

get Pale Court Charms instead of Pale Court if you just want the charms

[uneven nexus]

How do I download/use the debug mod for the first game? Literally just gonna cheat P5 Markoth cuz it's the most cnacer thing ever

[dense wigeon]

with lumafly

[uneven nexus]

its not launching

Verify that you are using the correct installer and patch!

• Hollow Knight recently updated. Until the modding tools are also updated, you need to make sure you're on the previous version (1.5.78.11833), available as a beta in Steam, with an installer such as Lumafly or Scarab.
  • Pirated copies / Unofficial ports are not supported
• 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.
  • You can type ?tag 1221 for info on it.

[uneven nexus]

didnt know that

ty

[mellow timber]

I want both tho...

[dense wigeon]

why?

you apparently don't want to do the fights to get the charms

[minor hawk]

Im pretty sure you can use debug to give yourself pale court charms

If you just press the give all charms button

[dense wigeon]

all I know is mods that add charms need a debug interop in order to have those charms be given

I have no clue if PC or PCC has that interop

[minor hawk]

If not save editing would be an easy way to get them, they probably just show up as charms 41-46 in the save file

[dense wigeon]

I think that's a big assumption LOL

[minor hawk]

Pale court breaks with other charm mods

[dense wigeon]

PCC does not tho

[minor hawk]

So I find it pretty plausible that they weren’t integrated in some clean way

And use like 41-46 and thus break other mods

[dense wigeon]

Roma would probably know

[minor hawk]

I mean regardless, maybe save editing (of the actual save or the modded save data)
Or just use debug invincibility to get the charms normally

[mellow timber]

I cant

[minor hawk]

Uninstall additional map ?

Is this an XY problem

You really ought to make it more clear what you want and what is happening in your game lol

[mellow timber]

I mean i can only do fierce dryya and isma

[dense wigeon]

if you can't do the fights, then you should troubleshoot that if it's what you want to do. If you're not going to troubleshoot the fights, then there's no point using pale court

[minor hawk]

Just use debug invincibility if you are having a skill issue…

[covert estuary]

I think with can they mean capabilities, not technical things

[mellow timber]

I cant i get kicked out of the fight

[covert estuary]

Nvm

[dense wigeon]

Did you ever make a support post to actually try & solve your issue?

Like, I recall you complaining about it before, but I don't remember an actual support post

[minor hawk]

So many back and forth
This is the best thriller I’ve watched in a while

[mellow timber]

I try to uninstall some mods and use a different save file o can only fight them on godmaster save

[dense wigeon]

you must have missed the one in #speedrunning a few days ago then

[dense wigeon]

... OK? that has nothing to do with what I said

[minor hawk]

I’ve seen the person that was posting with an AI

and this rates higher? amazing

?tag palecourt Check for the common mod incompatibilities

[fathom wigeon]

Starting Pale Court

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

Known problems with Pale Court

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

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

[minor hawk]

I came in late so I was back reading it mostly, doesn’t feel the same

[mellow timber]

Whats hk vocalized?

[dense wigeon]

a mod

[mellow timber]

What does IT do?

[dense wigeon]

vocalizes the game

amazing, given the title, I know

[zinc void]

All the npcs, bosses, etc speak

[mellow timber]

Oh ok

[dense wigeon]

Bottom line: if your Pale Court issues are not solved by the tag above, make a help post & include all the required info

[mellow timber]

I will prolly do this

[dense wigeon]

I'm willing to help, in the proper channel

Like, they were already given the PC tag days ago

[mellow timber]

How am i supposed to ss me teleporting out of the fight?

[dense wigeon]

you could take a video, but the screenshot isn't the m ost important part if it's an issue that can't be captured in a pic, system specs & your modlog are most important

[mellow timber]

Ok and what îs a modlog.txt file?

[dense wigeon]

?tag modlog

[fathom wigeon]

ModLog

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

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

To get the ModLog on Windows:

1. Press ⊞ + R

• Note: ⊞ is the Windows button, in between Ctrl and Alt on your keyboard

2. Copy and paste this into it %appdata%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight and hit "OK".
3. ModLog.txt is in this folder.

To get the ModLog on MacOS:

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

• 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.

is there smth like a launcher ?

Usually mods do not do irreversible changes in saves, however you are always welcome to back up your saves just in case

[elder dock]

hey can i ask why we have to mod the game outside of steam why not steam workshop mod?

that been on my mind for a bit

[minor hawk]

I’ll admit I can’t exactly remember
But… from memory, steam workshop stuff falls onto the developer, ie, team cherry would have to make the modding tools/make sure mods work

Team cherry hasn’t ever done anything to endorse any mods of any kind and thus there isn’t a steam workshop integration

(Also since there are versions of hk not from steam it’s also good that mods aren’t restricted to steam but that is tangential)

[elder dock]

ahhh i see

[vagrant orbit]

Fwiw, Team Cherry has endorsed mods multiple times. They have never directly supported (as on implemented support) for them.

But yeah, Steam Workshop isn't something the fan community can have added to a game

[vestal oasis]

Is there a Silksong mod for local co-op multiplayer? I want to be able to play through the game with 2 players on the same device and enemies/items in sync but haven't seen anything like this

you can play local multiplayer on SSMP (Silksong Multiplayer) but there are currently not any sort of itemsync or enemysync mod

Hummmm… is endorsed defined that way ?
Probably yeah, I meant it in a sense closer to like, « endorsing the role of » which isn’t correct but yeah, I know they explicitly said that mods were cool

Custom Knight

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 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
• Example:

[frail ocean]

Guys when I turn my mods in I can’t see them in game

[fathom wigeon]

If you tried to mod the wrong patch and are now seeing Blank Save Files

• First you'll need to reset your Global Settings Files:
  1. Download this file: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/879138066961424405/1039420689624612884/Global_Settings_Reset.bat
  2. Move the file to your Desktop
  • If it appears on your computer as a .txt file, then you'll need to resave it as .bat
  3. Double-Click the file
• Second you'll need to Verify the Integrity of your game files. You can use ?tag verify in chat to see how to do this in Steam.
• Third make sure that Lumafly isn't in your Downloads folder, then use Shift Right-Click on it and select Run as Administrator

[covert estuary]

This also applies for that issue

[frail ocean]

I’m on 1.5.78 is that ok

[pale gull]

Is that latest patch?

[frail ocean]

No it’s old

[covert estuary]

Yes that's the correct patch for modding

[frail ocean]

Ok good

How do I changed the file to .bat

Guys?

[wheat river]

On some systems you can directly rename and save it as .bat
If not, right click - properties- change there

This is a generic answer to change from .txt to .bat
I don't know the entire context so..

[frail ocean]

I followed all steps

STILL MODS DONT WORK

[covert estuary]

Then make a post in #1057825333841240104 with all the info asked for in #1090079233520451714

[royal cedar]

does anyone know if lumafly is going to update to the latest game version anytime soon because i have a 3440 x 1440 monitor and with the last version lumafly currently works on cant support that resolution

so i was wondering if anyone knows if they're going to update anytime soon and if it'll be able to support my monitor resolution when it does get up to date with the game

[covert estuary]

There is no known date for when it will be updated, in the meanwhile you can downpatch if you are on steam or gog

?tag update

[fathom wigeon]

Hollow Knight Recently Updated

and until the Modding tools are also updated, you need to make sure you're on the previous patch!

[lucid frigate]

Hey guys, does anyone know if there's a fully finished version of the skin or not?

[dense wigeon]

Please don't ping me on 2 year old messages. If there was an updated version there would be an updated link on the List

[red plinth]

Colette when Chibi is released, I'mma make you post it so I don't get pinged about it

[dense wigeon]

LMAOOO

I've considered deleting the Little Grimm post in particular & putting it on the skin service

Since people have absolutely no sense

[red plinth]

I feel like if I didn't edit my one Little rad post, I'd still be getting pinged about it today

[minor hawk]

You should make an alt for that kind of stuff

That way you can count the pings by opening it after a couple months

[lucid frigate]

Oh sorry about that it's just a really great skin. I liked it way too much, but I didn't think to ping you.

[minor hawk]

Yeah people just don’t know replies ping
Which is why it should default to off…

[dense wigeon]

It should be default off. But if you've ever been replied to, or like ... have eyeballs and see the ping on/off radial, I dunno how you stay ignorant
