well what I sorta meant with lightbringer, you can change bosses and HK's moveset
Im just a fucking idiot but it would be a cool idea to add some sort of mod that changes alot of the game and sorta being like the Meta Knightmare mode in Kirby
would be even a more stupid idea to make a playable meta knight
just ignore this idea along with the galacta knight idea if you want

@odd mantle it's never been done, but you're welcome to try
odd mantle
if there is a way to make a mod similar to custom knight but that changes grimmchild that would be a start
i have no idea how it could throw lasers and spikes but lightbringer did it
(with did it i mean it changed the primary weapon to a projectil that looks different)
so its possible to replace grimm fireball with a spear or a light ball

quick question: how exactly do these mods get started?
weak plinth
By the API
dry snow
the what?
rain lark
@dry snow basically the base game has some code that runs once on first load patched so that when this code is run it will scan a folder for dlls and load all of them. c# lets you run code from arbitrary dll files at runtime so long as you know what the code you are trying to run is. when people write mods they write a certain known function that gets automatically called by the api
that's the long answer
this is also how every code based modding api works
limber ingot
if you dont know what an api is then theres some stuff youd need to learn before you try

Is there a recommended set of flags/difficulty for doing randomiser 3 runs? Or should I just pick whatever I’m comfortable with? I randomised most items and my run took hours so was wondering if there was a standard list that people use (I’ve heard people do races, what flags do they set for a race?)
foggy ore
it depends on how comfortable you are with the game's mechanics
weak plinth
and "hours" isn't completely unexpected either
foggy ore
yeah
it also depends on how much completion you're going for
100% TE could take a very long time
glad parcel
what if just any%? im pretty comfortable with the mechanics, but I had all items randomised and finding the dreamers basically meant i did a 100% run lol
i think i had cursed on too, i dont know if that affects item rarity
weak plinth
it doesnt
glad parcel
does it just remove fragments eggs pale ore?
weak plinth
it turns all non-essential items to 1 geo
glad parcel
and do the varying levels of cursed do anything or just the "oh yeah" setting
cause there was no, nooo, nooooooo but I didnt know what that changed
weak plinth
they're all the same afaik
glad parcel
hah, alright
weak plinth
just meme labels
glad parcel
the logs were really helpful in the end
weak plinth
but even for just any%, the new randomizer shuffles so much more around
the older version with just charms, abilities, etc, still took an average of 90 minutes or so for top runners
glad parcel
i never played the old randomizer
weak plinth
a sub 60 minute run was rare
so on new one, with way more moved around, including dreamers, you need far more
so 3 hours avg for good runners makes sense
glad parcel
so do people still stick to just charms + ability runs then?
weak plinth
people do whatever they want
glad parcel
true, its all about how you want to play
weak plinth
if you're going junk pit rando, or whatever the maximum randomization is now, it takes a lot longer
3-5 hours
maybe less if you get favorable luck
glad parcel
yeah it took me like 5
lurien was at void heart
and kingsoul fragments were in crazy places
foggy ore
I assume you're comfortable with doing most skips then
glad parcel
yeah
although i might not know all of them
like all the locations you can use shade skip etc
foggy ore
go hard or go home
glad parcel
anyone know what a spicy skip is? lol
foggy ore
weak plinth
an arbitrary description for a "harder" misc skip
foggy ore
it doesn't include the old mag skips, does it?
weak plinth
not even as a meme option
glad parcel
i did some crazy skips last run because i didnt have claw until the end
i guess they'd be under spicy skips
i.e luring enemies in weird places
or is that just a mild skip
foggy ore
that's normal
glad parcel
ah ok
weak plinth
enemy pogos isn't considered a skip
in any capacity
that falls under "expected rando thinking"
glad parcel
not even getting to hallownest crown?
foggy ore
what
glad parcel
:d
foggy ore
no
weak plinth
the spike tunnel would have been a misc skip
weak plinth
tunnels yes, but this is like.... a gauntlet
glad parcel
haha, yea thats why im asking around
weak plinth
a different skip than spike tunnels
glad parcel
that was a fun skip
weak plinth
so if you were on easy, crystal peak would not have contained progression
foggy ore
I suck at spike tunnels, but I can climb to crown anyday
weak plinth
before claw
foggy ore
care to give us an example of a spicy skip mick?
I'm not even sure myself
never ran rando3
glad parcel
what other acid skips are there?
theres one in crossroads
and the stupid queens garden one
are there more?
weak plinth
I think that spike climb is probably a good example.
maybe that's a mild skip
I dunno how homothety differentiates
foggy ore
ok, I get the idea
foggy ore
don't count mags tho
glad parcel
ah ok
Ive only ran any% so i only know skips involved in that
and a couple of others im learning just from playing rando
weak plinth
there's a lot more to learn in rando than just any% skips
glad parcel
wtf
foggy ore
same
foggy ore
I mean, with puffers it's doable
glad parcel
oh rly?
foggy ore
oh really
glad parcel
thats neat
weak plinth
you don't remember Ush doing runs with this?? lol it was awful
glad parcel
did they make acid skip near the end of any% more consistent? i havent looked at it much in like 2 years
weak plinth
no
glad parcel
rip
weak plinth
people just got better at it
glad parcel
like dash setup?
weak plinth
I dunno what you mean by that
glad parcel
something like dashing into the wall and then pressing crystal heart rather than jumping down onto the wall
weak plinth
people prefer different things
glad parcel
it killed my runs a lot
but at least if you go in with full soul you get a few tries
can you kill runs if you upgrade your nail too much?
weak plinth
before claw.... possibly
glad parcel
yea thats waht I was thinking, considering how late i got claw
luckily i had cursed but yh
weak plinth
but you'd have to either upgrade to nail 4?, or nail 2 and wear fragile strength
steady elbow
read the readme 
weak plinth
nobody reads the manual
glad parcel
did you make it?
sweet
do the varying levels of cursed do anything?
or just having fun with the labels
No more than 1 nail upgrade before claw or wings
No more than 3 nail upgrades before claw```
i read the readme This seed has been cruel
Wings locked behind 18 grubs, mantis claw nowhere to be seen
But don’t worry, I have shade cloak
I’ve been grabbing every grub I can find
Slowly but surely
I even did an early dive into deepnest for a grub ;-;
I need another like 150 essence for CDash and I’m fairly certain that I’m going to have to grab it just to get grubs for wings, other uses of cdash aside
Oh yeah, and the kicker - isma’s is locked behind mantis claw and possibly also cdash according to quirrel
I’m determined to figure out how to progress but this seed is more of what I expected compared to the first seed I did where I was handed claw and cloak immediately

@hidden creek it's fixed
close the game, relaunch the installer

hidden creek
oooo awesome 
foggy ore
if it says version 2.0 in the top left, then it worked
oh,also
the readme is outdated
it's not sharp shadow that doubles your damage
it's having shade cloak
sharp shadow just allows you to phase through walls
as you can read in the item's description
hidden creek
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh
ok lmao
that makes much more sense
foggy ore
so maybe it was working before and you just didn't realise
because you were comparing against with/without sharp shadow
instead of with/without shade cloak
but anyway, the code is less of a mess now

hell yeah lol

hey
is there a way I can change what the frame rate limit is set to?
I want to see it to my monitor's refresh rate so that I can use that instead of v sync
weak plinth
that..... that's what vsync does
dry snow
@whole hamlet if you don't want vsync, having the highest framerate is best for smooth results, since you'll get the shortest input lag (which is the only reason you should not use vsync)
whole hamlet
this is what I have been looking for
I dont notice much input lag on this game tbh
I just dont want my game to be 400 fps cause my gpu is working 100% and getting hot
whole hamlet
the problem with vsync is that it will work and lock to 165 fps (my monitor's refresh rate) but after something like a few hours, it will start bugging and locking to 60 fps instead
I dont know why but it feels pretty bad
this works perfectly now, gpu at around 40% so its not a space heater, and my fps is above my 165hz
weak plinth
Turn off vsync then. And use a program like Rivatuner
Then you can cap fps externally

So I tried out Super Junk Pit and it's great, but at first I tried the random location and just got stuck in Queen's Garden -- what are you supposed to do there, I got to the stag station (obviously not open because sjp), could not make the jump to the beginning or the rancid egg, and the only option I saw was to go do the miniboss with broken nail and no spells. I re-rolled, but I was left wondering if I just missed something or was teh suck for not going for the miniboss.
Also, kudos for SJP, it was a lot of fun, it took steps to fixing the grub problem in rando 10/10

I've got a question on charm conflicts. If I had both Lightbringer (which edits/replaces several charms) and Exaltation installed will the glorified (original) charms replace the Lightbringer custom charms once I start beating pantheons in Godhome? That is how I would assume the logic would work, but I wanted to verify.

Where do I get hollow point
vestal cradle
cold talon
Ijm asking here since mods probably will know more. Does right has priorioty over left movement?
What I mean is:
If I hold both a and d and do dash, i will go to the right
regardless of which one I hold first, etc
weak plinth
you will go in the direction you were initially facing
cold talon
thats not happening to me for some reason
weak plinth
well I highly doubt you're pressing the two inputs on the exact same frame
so one is probably being pressed first
cold talon
i No no, I mean
Lets say I hold A, and after two seconds I hold D, my character will stop moving, right?, when I press dash, my character will go to the right (D)
But If I do the opposite. Hold D, and after two seconds I hold A and I press dash, my character still will go to the right
cold talon
whenever you can, can you test it?, its kinda weird lol

Hello 🙂 I guess that modding the Xbox beta for PC version of the game isn't possible, or does it require some "Windows doesn't let you do what you want with your PC unless you modify it in depth" tricks?

I'm doing a randomizer and I started at the crown but then I sat at the crystal guardian bench. I think my only check left that I could possibly get is above the bench but I can't get up there.
Does the randomizer assume I can warp back to the crown?
steady elbow
yes
queen locust
oof... guess I'll have to install the debug mod to get up there.
steady elbow
Why not benchwarp?
queen locust
I can't benchwarp to the crown, there's no bench.
queen locust
I did not know that was a thing! Thank you!
mystic moat
is there a mod that removes absrad's climbing phase
because that has way too much bs and rng and luck for me, I don't have the time for that

You could turn on invulnerability with debug mode I guess for that phase.

you could also git gud

how do you use the explosives in the hollow point mod, again?

Would it be possible to insert custom bosses into the Pantheons in Godhome?
No wait sorry I just remembered the time that I accidentally left Crystalbobbles on when attempting Pantheon of the Artist
So, making a really hard Galacta Knight would be cool while we’re waiting for Silksong to come out.

Damn. Thanks for the answer
hidden creek
i found a bug with the ak47 mod
the long nail/galvanized steel charm is supposed to extend the range and bullet velocity, but it makes the bullet speed 0 instead
hidden creek
actually, its the stabilized aim charm that does it
also i made a photoshop file for a cloak recolor, where could i post it?
brittle egret
oh yeah stabalized is busted, apparently the heat is making it go negative degree angles so thats why it disappears at low heat but starts showing up on high heat, ive pretty much fixed it already on my build
grim whale
Heyyyy. (hope im posting this in the right channel) so i have a friend thats playing hollow knight, right? problem is that he's not all that great at it. he's pretty poor at action games in general and despite me sitting there and trying to help him though advice he's still having a really hard time. im thinking i could just either find a mod or make one myself that eases the diffaculty up just a little bit.
what im thinking is:
A) the kingsoul's soul regeneration effect on him perminently.
B) keeping your geo when you die.
i honistly feel like these little tweaks would make the game more fun for him.
i guess what im asking for is if a mod like this already exist. if not, then how would i be able to make it myself? iv got a bit of experiance with C# (tho no experiance making mods)
grim whale
we're bouth useing the steam version btw
candid shell
What does the charm notch mod do?
random wraith
redwing was meant to be an easy mode
still kinda is
If you just want the stuff you mentioned it should be pretty easy
grim whale
yee?
this is his first time playing hollow knight, so im not looking to totaly overhaul the game or add in a bunch of new stuff
i also dont know the first thing about moding a game like hollow knight, so if anyone could point me to some tutorials or documentation, or just help walk me though the process, i would love that
steady elbow
You can edit the save to give him a 0 notch cost Kingsoul. Giving the effect without the charm is a little harder
In fact, the save file can set any charm's cost to 0 without any modding necessary
So that might be a good place to start as a beginner
You can make a more complex easy mode using the Modding API
There are details in #archived-modding-development, but it would involve adding hooks and probably editing several fsms
grim whale
nice
but what about the "not loosing geo on death" thing? that seems a little more complicated
steady elbow
That would require a mod
Again, a few easier options would be to give more health or nail damage
Though collecting additional mask shards after reaching max hp will lock the game
grim whale
we talked about the idea of just giving him a shitload of geo so he could clean out all of the shops
also, wont giving him the kingsoul break the story progression?
vestal cradle
you get so much geo later into the game
steady elbow
Yes, but you could also remove it by the same method before the late game
vestal cradle
it becomes as valuable as Venezuelan currency
grim whale
yeah but he's pretty early in the game, he just got to the city of teirs
Hmm
alright, so how do i edit a save file?
steady elbow
You can use this website: https://bloodorca.github.io/hollow/
You can also do it directly using the QoL mod
To give Kingsoul, you need to edit the values for charm 36, and also set royalCharmState to 3
grim whale
alright, thanks!
im thinking i might also give him the pale ore from the radience statue
tho idk if thats going too far
just in case tho, how would i do that?
steady elbow
You can add 1 to ore, or add 4 to nailDamage
However, removing that particular ore requires editing scenedata
grim whale
will adding ore like, break the game when and if he gets the final ore?
steady elbow
no
sceneName = "Mines_34",
id = "Shiny Item Stand",
activated = true,
semiPersistent = false
in the scenedata section, to remove the ore, but it isn't necessary
grim whale
so uhhh, where is the save file in the game files?
steady elbow
