@granite sierra ok thats odd its never been wrong before but thanks
Its since
mods arent something common to windows
it just does that just in case
but no need to worry, mods dont have virus on hollow knight
nah, that's because the executable isn't digitally signed
yeah, that
@granite sierra @hexed nimbus so its like 100% not a virus
yes
ok
Uploading a virus and pinning it in a partnered server 
it would be funny tho
So there's a question I've been wondering about for a while and I haven't been able to find anything on it - why did the modding community for HK decide to use a custom mod loader via a modified Assembly-CSharp instead of something such as BepInEx? Was there some sort of limitation or oddity - or something that was simply trickier to do without using a custom loader - or was BepInEx not 'up to snuff' as it were?
easy enough to run from a primal aspid though. try running from a grub mimic in place of the first tiktik 
I only recently learned stuff about bepinex from among us modding, but it appears that doing it this way is easier and requires creating less files. Also the installer is purely a file manager that downloads and moves files, not at all related to how the assembly works
I’m probably getting something wrong about bepinex, but idk
When I say 'loader' I'm referring to the integrated Assembly-CSharp functionality that loads from the '/Managed/Mods' folder, not the mod installer
Ah
and I only have experience doing things via BepInEx for Risk of Rain 2 - Among Us is a bit different as that game uses IL2CPP which changes quite a bit
but from Risk of Rain 2, you drop a few files in the main game folder and then it functions much the same, without the grey legal area of the current Assembly-CSharp set-up (at least, from what I've heard)
doesn't bepinex do the same thing
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Pretty sure it does
Functionally, pretty much - but it patches the game files in real-time, without distributing any game code at all
I say real-time, but I should actually say before the game loads I think
maybe it would have worked fine for this application, but that's also not have development timelines work
mods were originally written as exclusive, standalone replacements for the assembly file, then evolved to a central API so all could be run simultaneously
it's easy from the future to look back on it and say, "well why didn't you use this"
at this point, changing how we code all mods would be a huge undertaking
especially since TC has rubber stamped them
Would preloading have worked with bepinex?
Fair enough - it was more of a "why was it done this way when this other, seemingly easier way existed" anyway, not really a "you should change it to this instead" as I know how much work that would be

as far as I'm aware, most things possible with this system would also work with BepInEx - it has differentiations between patchers and plugins
point being.... if this is a more recent thing, of course we didn't start with it
that's a really good point actually - for some reason I had thought BepInEx started in 2017 - it was actually Feb of 2018, so that makes a lot more sense to me now
Didn't know how good I had it when I started with BepInEx I guess, hah, you guys had to build it all up mostly from scratch
Wow
Good to have my curiosity sated though, didn't realize that BepInEx was that new
I’ve only been here for like the last year
Same
I've been here for --- less. Haha. BepInEx looks interesting tho. Maybe this could be someone's project when Silksong comes out in a few years.
Silksong 2077
stop spoiling the release year
Speaking on what Unordinal said, about using something like BepinEx, isn't MelonLoader universal for Unity games?
Couldn't that be used as well?
From what I've seen, which might just be circumstantial evidence. It seems more powerful than BepinEx.
In what way? From what I've heard it's just a different BepInEx with less support
Well first off I believe it supports both Mono and Il2Cpp
I'm no modder or even programmer. So this is a bit out my league.
BepInEx does as well - IL2Cpp support is only useful in games which use that as well
I have found a differences list, though it is by the BepInEx devs so keep that in mind https://bepis.io/unity.html
Hmm, I wonder why so many modding communities were waiting on MelonLoader then...
I can think of many that had to use Melonloader, even when I suggest BepinEx
Also, looking at that list. I am in no way trying to defend either side. It looks like Melonloader does nearly everything that BepinEx except for the stuff in "Unity Hotfixes"
Yeah, that's why I said it's a 'different' loader, not a 'worse' one - I personally have no experience with it
It does seem like BepInEx's IL2CPP support is newer and based on MelonLoader's
I guess we will bury that shovel now then, unless someone else wants to comment on it, This is way far out of my comfort zone.
The current implementation seems fine anyways.
My curiosity has also been sated.
Yeah, I couldn't see the community adopting one of these loaders simply because we have one and it works completely fine for everyone's purposes - using another loader would involve ripping up pretty much everything mod-related and reimplementing it to work with one of the loaders, which is simply not worth it
I was kinda curious as to why HK didn't start on something like BepInEx but that was before I realized BepInEx came after
Melonloader came out even later, so it's really a moot point.
I assume something like that will be used for Silksong
I got the answer, apparently BepinEX's Il2cpp implementation is actually very recent.
Like a few months recent
Is there a hotkey list somewhere for Debug Mode?
F1
Thats to open the ui for it, yes. Does it not have any hotkeys for the various options?
It does cus if u open that then a list of them should come up
U press the page button to go on the next page
oic the bind thing has pages. Thanks, I didn't notice
I pray for the day someone makes a full on Grimm playable character mod 
just wondering is there a "hard mode" mod thats more than just every enemy deals 2 masks of dammage?
You could just use Debug mod, to give your self half masks.
He's too tall, the game would be extremely difficult.
Just wondering if there's a mod that displays the name of enemies above their heads
Like the hp bar kind of, but like "mosscreep" or "mantis warrior" above the heads of the enemy
Asking for a friend
Nope
Thanks
Any interesting mods being made?
Pale Court
but it's being made
psssh. Whats next? Silksong is being made??
is there a place to find people to play co-op mod with?
I have an innate desire to have lore friendly boss health bars so I know how much I need to scream when I fight a boss and die
surely such a mod exists, right?
Is this good for my first try?
can someone make something that changes the backgrounds of some areas? More specifically, areas where a bosses projectiles blend in too much with the background? I'm legally blind and the spike balls Hornet pulls up are really hard to see because they blend in so much with the background
you might be looking for PaletteSwapper, though it's original use was to make areas harder to see, you can change the config to whatever you want. This is on a per-area basis though, so might not be what you're looking for
I can but I won’t
I'd assume so 
is this normal mode
it's infifnite grimm, the more damage dealt, the faster he gets
really

tHank
so
a few days ago
i asked about a trans rights skin
um
someone said they would make it but i forgot who that was?
i dont think redfrog said
oh shit
hold on ill send screenshot of it
its good but a bit darker would look a bit more natural
if its not too much ksjfldlkjsdfkjlsfd
is this better?
im gonna test it out myself gimme a sec
ill also add the hud and maybe the spells later, but all are gonna be recolored cuz i dont want to overwork myself
and maybe submit it to the driver
doesnt look bad now i think
np
do you guys know if invisible THK is linked to the savefile or its just a game bug? i had 2 THK invisible in a row on 2 different randos, i "restored" game files, reloaded the game and THK was still invisible
if you're using customknight on a pc with a not-great graphics card then thk will just do that
disabling it when restarting is usually a good idea just to make sure
weird because everything was fine, and i have to admit that since i ve installed StarBunny and Vod Knight, its seems like THK is derping
i have a 1080
ok, i i ll try to disable it, thank you 
a 1080 should be fine, but who even knows this game anymore 
ok, i disabled it, reloaded the game and THK is there, thanks a lot, i ll try to enable it and if its bugging again, maybe i have an issue with one those said skins i downloaded last
From what I've heard in the past it's just that hk doesn't handle graphics at all, so artificial vram caps get hit and you get infinite loads and invis npcs a lot depending on hardware + mods
hey i don't use customknight and i still get invis thk, checkmate modders 
Benchwarp increases the risk as well, bc it buffers all the bench prefabs or something
ticking "reduce preload" in the benchwarp deploy settings menu will make it only load one bench prefab
well i might have an issue with the latest skins i downloaded. in a way, it solved the issue, thank you people, i ll find out wich skin is memeing me
But it’s a original hollow knight bug
cleaned up latests skins and it still bugging, i ll just disable customknight, no big deal but its kinda weird since it was working fine , also sorry, i noticed that i should have post this in modding-help 
hello, does anyone have a working QOL mod?
I tried downloading the one through mod installer but it always shows an error when I open the game
This is what happens
You need vasi
Yes, that's it! Thanks @weak plinth
what do i do to host for multiplayer?
i have the server mod installed, not sure where to go from there
Connect with people in hamachi.
host: has server and client mods. connects first to their own IP
guest: has only client mod. connects second to the host's IP
IP being the IP listed in hamachi
that looks nice
So i recently got a new laptop, and i was wondering how well OBS would record footage on it, since my old laptop had a very shitty framerate for the recordings (like when i did most of the TWP custom knight skin challenges). I also wanted an excuse to record myself doing something with the Chara skin, because i really love how it looks, so i decided to record myself beating Radiant PV as a test for how well OBS can record it https://youtu.be/2JYddGUEIqU
Just wanted to make this video as a way of testing how well i can record stuff on my new laptop, since i recently got an upgrade. Also, i really liked this custom knight skin, so i wanted to have an excuse to use it too
I'm really happy with how it did
The framerate is actually smooth now ^^
Wheres the chara skin
O
chara kills radabsrad 10 times in a row?
Yeesh, got a couple good runs and have done some experimenting with builds
Ima take out strength for soul water so im good
yeah, was going to do that too
Eater*
tried it yesterday and i'd been experimenting with mop over strength
For some reason i just die to something random with abs rad
same.
recently it's been mostly not being able to release the jump button because I'm too tense. I end up unable to double jump and die
that and somehow I just can't figure out the swords
I die because i accidentally mantis claw in climbing phase, somehow fall in platforming phase, annoying early ceiling spikes or just bad at predicting orbs
hm. Haven't died in climbing in a while
My climbing deaths are just stupid but happening less
Unless i go speedy and start wall jumping to hell
yeah speedy is death
I still don't understand how you play so risky and get 6 in a row
Ddark
I got like 2 5s today lmao and bs got the better of me
Ive done abs rad so much to the point i know how orbs work
Like sometimes i stand still intentionally and dont get hit off em
Also ive tried to stop playing risky,ive taken off steady body and quickslash and im going for nail combos
oh?
that's interesting
i'd love to see some vids of it
wait we're in modding disc
questionably worded
What do you mean by that?
Is it what I said?
uh... yeah 🤔
Sorry about it then :/
Quick question concerning CustomKnight: I checked the pinned messages for the skin's folder and I couldn't find any, so, is there any sort of "Godseeker" Knight skin :o?
not that i know of, i hope it gets made though!!
Dang :c. I'll have to be patient for more then, I guess, ty.
Somebody is making it! The creator of the Lifeblood Knight skin
Oh dayum.
oh hell yeah
That is how it will look
That's insane :o. My life for aiu-.. I mean, this guy doing it.
Is there a mod that adds visible boss health bars to the game's HUD?
enemyhpbar mod
is bot down?
dyno is just down
that's the command
oh
why did i get a ping
This?

how can you tell

new discoveries being made today
holy shit i never even knew about that
Most mind blowing thing of 2021

I found seanpcore and weavercore when i searched core

do you have edit perms to the doc
it appears like that

Where are all the mods? They're sure as shit aren't on Steam.
I just re-installed Hollow Knight, why isn't it here?
because you didn't install it there
I've checked damn near everywhere else, where is it?
ah yes, let me just look through your computer here real quick....
tell you where you put your own files
🤔
Somehow I figured Uriel may not be so appreciated here
Can't you open the game (and file location) directly from Steam?
I got it open
according to the pins (<#modding-discussion message>), no
It was never running afaik
Howdy, has there been multiple challenge events for the TWP The Hollow Knight skin or there is only one, sorry
2 from the looks of it
Pale king skin and halloween skin have stopped, but i think one of those went public? not sure
thanks, I will try to research more about them
Both of them tmk
The spells are not available on fhe public ver. of PK skin afaik
But methyl is still giving proper ver. if you hand proof of the completed challenge
bro delet that message, no snitching
The people deserve the truth
Found a bug that may or may not be part of having downloaded mods? I was practicing against the pure vessel and after I died, my knight was invisible
I had an idea for a content mod (possibly workable with the Decoration master plus some art stuff and a few other alterations)
did you hit backspace
Nessie, I have typed long messages before.... but are you sure you aren’t going over the discord limits?
@swift bison yeah, he's been typing for almost a hour
I'm going to break it up, but I'm typing it out as one message initially so that it's all together as a single thought

crap, I cut the text so I could send that reply and Discord won't let me send it now

it won't let me paste it

What is this?
a mod idea
basically you infect the White Palace and have some more challenge stuff
I haven't really thought of any rewards for completing it
Real pain in the ass: Enemy Randomizer. Basically some enemies get replaced by bosses, for example, Enraged Guardian, who is an harder version of Crystal Guardian.
They also have an giant thing which it appears if you are gonna use the Simple Key in Dirtmouth.
Does any1 want to play multiplayer?
how does one install the impossible mod. I downloaded the mod manager
Impossible any% is not a mod, it is a map
watch fireb0rn's tutorial video to install decoration master, then download the map from the custom maps drive in the pinned messages @dry snow
make sure QoL is downloaded as well
thank you good sir
don't download from fireb0rn's description, I don't think it's updated
the drive has the most recent (final) version
Hello friends.
I'm looking to do a Hollow Knight Randomizer where enemies and items are completely randomized, but I don't have to do bench warp.
Is there a good list of mods, or mods someone can recommend, to get started doing casual randomizers?
?i
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages.
I believe Randomiser 2 has a mode where you don't need Benchwarp, but it is generally not being maintained. You will need Benchwarp for Randomiser 3
general warning: Rando 2 is much harder than rando 3, and unintuitive in places (eg doesn't let you bench in places where you could get locked), i personally would just recommend rando 3 just for the additional features and the reduced backtracking benchwarp provides but 
I appreciate the feedback, at least! Just wanting to get into casually randomizing the game.
Rando 3 is the main one that everybody plays and is being updated. I would highly suggest that. You could also try some plandos? They sometimes have "warp only" Benchwarp, which means you can only Benchwarp to the last bench you sat on, making routing important.
Did rando 2 allow you to have progression at e.g. abyss shriek with no vertical to get out? (So you have to s&q)
I’m wondering if rando 3 with non-Randomized stags and you’re forced to be vigilant about not benching where you could softlock yourself could work
rando 3 assumes you always have benchwarp
so it could easily place your first vertical as wings in basin with no way back 
that's why rando 2 disabled basin bench
this is the code that actually still exists in rando 3, but ofc unused:
Yes, but it’s ok if you’re vigilant and just don’t bench in basin etc
i mean untested, but if you really want this will reenable the bench safety 
Is there a link to all the rando skips?
Question, am I allowed to use sharp shadow for the onigiri complete challenge?
there is a rando wiki under construction, but your best bet is probably just asking in #randomizer
https://hollow-knight-randomizer.fandom.com/wiki/Hollow_Knight_Randomizer_Wiki
(you can get access by doing ?rank Randomizer Racer)
Alright thanks
what is the best mod
Pale Court
you
thanks
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQdrh7Jo2JU Never mind, i didn't end up needing sharp shadow anyway
This was much easier compared to actually having to actively try and speedrun it tbh, I was expecting this to be way harder.
There is no definitive best mod as everyone’s definition is different. Some people want something easy, some people want a challenge, some people like customization, some people don’t like customization and want it to be kept simple, ect
Pale champion @latent void
so i was playing some item rando, in the first room i got kings brand and claw, second room i got cloak and dreamnail
id say thats pretty lucky
I tried it and in the first 5 minutes i got wings ddive and ismas 🥴
part of the reason I considered starting pale court was that all modded bosses were from "extremely fast, insane difficulty" to "insane difficulty, randomness high fuck you"
Yeah thats true
even funnier was that cloak was on a dream root thing (idr what theyre called) and i saw another pickup and said 'this better be dreamnail'
I cant remember what saleh said the difficulty on pale court would be but i do remember him saying itd be hard but not too hard
yes, PV/NKG kind of hard, not pale champion/daughter of hallownest hard
how would i go about getting custom knight skins in an older version of the game? is that possible? i'm on 1.2.2.1 and i tried copying the folders from where they were into the new game directory but it didn't work.
You would have to rewrite the mod
I beat Nightmare King Grimm in Item Randomizer (It's Randomizer v3 if you're wondering), my god. He is still pain in the ass.
Damn
Dedication
There is no mod that adds completion
what's the mod called when you can change the ui and clothing of knight
wait nvm i think its customknight
yep
There is
It hasn't been updated in a while, but you could just try it and see what happens
What is it

Oh you mean the actual 110% mod?
It’s a assembly C sharp mod
Is there a reason it no longer works?
That’s why I said no
Oh
Can’t be hard to remake but I have other stuff to make
I might look into it
I'm pretty good at picking stuff up by taking an existing project and using that to learn.
I mentioned it on my stream recently so it could be cool to mess around with
I’d guess make a int or float variable that you can easily change, code the stuff to add to the percent on geo rock break, and set the added percent to the variable
I say make a variable for it because it’s easy to change. Even easier to change if you add more stuff to add to the percent(everything in the same place)
Randomizer changes how % is calculated; should be createable
verify integrity fo game files
right click on your game in your steam library, and i think you find it in a tab under properties
if its gog there's an option for it there too
thanks
something is wrong
there are no mods yet my focus is super fast
OHHH WAIT
i think its because i played with hollow point on my main save
that was dumb of me
you can save edit to fix that
i can?
you can use QOL or online save editors... i don't know the specifics but other conversations have been had in this channel about doing it
or in help
This is the second or third time I've seen someone mention to hook things into geo rock breaks --- is there something about these breaks that make hooking into them especially nice, or is it just a weird coincidence I keep seein' it?
Ohh, I see you asked about geo rocks above, my bad. Sometimes I see a bunch of things and think, "Am I missing something cool here?" In this case, it looks like a sheer coincidence.
as a rando runner who has done geo rock rando - you haven't. there are always more geo rocks to smack
first item rando and i got mantis and wings before leaving crossroads
that is such a cute design
And maybe one of the hardest things I’ve done in the game
Also yes we need more moth knight
They look so cozy
can someone give me a link to the customknight skins
Pins
i feel like making a portal based custom knight
Would you make it a Chel Vessel or something else?
Mod to turn Flukemarm into Glados
wheatley with legs 
cursed
but srsly i wanna replace grimmchild with wheatley and they shoot lasers
i just dont know how to change what they look like
You have any editing software?
When you install the customknight mod, you'll get a default folder that contains all reskinnable sprites
Copy it and edit the copied folder
@misty onyx
ok
You can also use GO Dump to generate individual PNG files, which I find much easier to work with
anyone got a grimmchild sprite sheet?
You can get a feel for the flow of the animations.
folder i mean
I would recommend you get Go Dump and Sprite Packer and do it with that
It's really easy to use.
Just grab Go Dump, put it in the same place your other mods go, then follow the instructions on the Go Dump Page.
They're both in the pins of Modding Development
There's a releases tab on the right
Well, not a tab
A thing that says releases and then has a link for the release
You open the game then follow the instructioms.
That's how it generates the files so you can get the exact files you want
If you just want Grimmchild it will be pretty quick.
i dont even have grimmchild on any of my saves
I don't think that matters.
But you could just Debug Mod yourself a Grimmchild on a new file.
i dont have the api installed on my game rn because i removed it for a speedrun
am i able to use this
honestly i cant be bothered this is too confusing for my small hamster brain
You can
My friend made an "uwu" Grimm and I have no idea how to put that in-game. He got the sprites' file from internet
Here, have a look!
To change a boss's spritesheet you'll want to talk to the people in #archived-modding-development
This is a feels bad
ha imagine not playing an early version where grubs were rescuable
i think i broke it
i dont have anything that should give me infinite soul yet i have infinite soul
and hollow point is currently disabled
hollow point focus glitch is longlasting
oh
save edit to get rid of it
save and "edit"?
i just closed the game and reopened it and it fixed it
When silksong comes out people can mod milk hornet as a skin
Help I’ve been thinking about this for hours
well, your problem(?) i guess
Cant wait for gorbmilk mod
if you're asking for tips you're not ready
Just wondering if anything useful to know
And I know I'm not ready but I'm still doing it and bbn I've gotten fairly far
benchwarp is mandatory, debug mod is recommended
one of the randos has a noclip option and so does debug
In case of softlock
How do I get rid of the debug mods ui
It doesnt say how to toggle it just said its toggleable
Whats that for @viscid aspen ?
A skin probably
My group chat name is "Silksong is a myth" oof😭
What does this have to do with modding?
a skin
I meant the message above mine...
i was answering to mr slons
Is there a "Impossible 100%" map?
This makes me angy
i think someone was working on a impossible 100% or an 112%, but there isnt a finished one
I kinda expected some spikes here
I may have gained slight masochistic tendencies thanks to this mod.
what is this electric soul master and why havent i ever seen him till enemy rando? ive played this game (unmodded) for forever
trial 3
oooohhh ive only trial of fool or godhome 3 trial?
cuz ive never beaten trial of fool and ive only gotten past godhome trial 1 once and cant beat trial 2
it only ever appears in trial of the fool
yea ive never gotten to its wave then cuz ive never seen it
and ive never beaten the trial of fool
Is there a mod that disables achievement getting? I want to mod Hollow Knight, but I don't want to get the achievements.
There is not for steam, no
just use SAM
No I wasnt
🙄
🤔
Badum tsh
is it possible for a room rando room to lead to itself
cuz
waterways_02 led to waterways_02
yeah, rooms are randomized less by the structure of the room, but instead by how the transitions are linked (and the direction of those transitions)
in ruins1_18 how is there 3 transitions
The watchers spire bench is part of that room, even though you can't get between that and the corridor above the bench
ah
does anyone know what worldsense from randomizer 3 does?
worldsense is from the base game, it shows you completion percentage
you get it from reading the lore tablet in the black egg
I was streaming room rando enemy rando and item rando all at once for 12 hours and 10 minutes straight and made tons of progress
Uh any mods that will make the game easier without making me op
I have not played hollow knight in a while so my skill has yeeted out the window
There's always the best mod --- practice :'''] 
Theres an easy mode mod
I need an easy mode for Markoth :(
Theres an easy mode mod
Easy mode is removing all your nail upgrades
i despise how your name is someone
It's very not funny when they respond to anybody saying "Can someone do [this]"
This might be hard to explain but is there a mod where it removes the staggered/stunned phase from all bosses?
afaik no
Ye it's annoying
i went back to kings pass then to the right exit which took me to a mines room then went up and wound in path of pain
U cant escape the white palace
Its inside itself
🤔
Yea I can exit the white palace only to a few transitions away be right back inside the white palace
(idk how room rando works) white palace could have 3 exits, one in front, one in the hub and one at the end of PoP
wait nvm, room rando is way more rando than that
Hub
thought of area rando
I just noticed that we have a "someone" and an "anyone" lol
And everyone
oh lol
what is the room name of Colosseum of fools?
Room_Colosseum_01 is where you enter the colosseum to fight and Room_Colosseum_02 is the bench
Thx
Is there a mod that makes primal aspids automatically explode
how do i make grimms tent apear in a room, item, and enemy rando run
light the lantern or get grimmchild
related, if I have grimmkin flames randomized, do I need to be wearing grimmchild to get whatever's at the flames?
huh, thought that was it
Never did find the lantern to light it tho
in item rando, that's how you do it; maybe it's different in room. or it's a bug
Ok
in item you just need one of the 2
I have all 3
Randos active
Yes I know I'm insane
If u want to watch me do all 3 randos at once go to #livestreams
The grimm and divine tents don't appear in dirtmouth in room rando. There'll be another two transitions leading to them, but you won't be able to get into grimm tent (there's a gate there) unless you have grimmchild or have lit the lantern.
(If you lit the lantern you get access to the grimmchild check only, if you have the grimmchild item you can get the check and also fight grimm for the charm notch check much like in non-room item rando)
Hey, so im kind of at a loss on what to do, I tried using modinstaller for some QOL stuff, but i moved my install folder for HK, and now the modinstaller wont open because it cant find the game, for obvious reasons, but it wont give me the option to choose a file path.
I just kept trying and it eventually worked
ah so just keep abusing the launcher, got it coach haha
Yes
@tropic tusk go into ur local files for hollow knight and delete modinstaller file
That should reset it
The path for it should be in #archived-modding-help pins
Hey fellas, anybody know some good videos talking about how to make custom bosses (not remakes)? I'd love to get into it at some point
completely new as in custom drawn sprites or custom as in e.g. from another game?
i'd say completley new
i'm mostly concerned about how the attacks would work, i'm decently good at animation
if you've got the animation chops I can help implement it in game
obviously it requires modding
oh certainly, i haven't started any of that haha
i was just wondering if there were any good videos / resources i could look into before i get started
cause i don't know anything about this kinda stuff
probably just look up boss design on Google and YouTube
fair nuff haha
Can enemy rando randomize my shade?
The map's probably just saying it's in the wrong spot.
There's a bug with some map stuff and the modding API
Found it
What's SAM?
steam achievement manager
How do I use it? Never heard of it before?
I believe so
lET ME LOOK THAT UP, i'LL GIVE YOU THE link

Here's my long awaited tutorial on how to use Hollow Knight's multiplayer mod. Keep in mind it is still unfinished! Shoutouts to Bob Fred for making the mod and RedFrog6002 for hosting the Discord server.

like pve or pvp?
@solemn island you can play PVE and PVP
thx
you can use debug mod to give urself cheats like bigger nail dmg
Ooookie...
there is an infinite charm notch mod
thx
with debug mod is there a button to quickly turn noclip on/off
you can bind it to a button, theres a thing on the f1 menu with a lot of pages with commands you can assign keys to and noclip is in the cheats page
thx
What does turning on mild skips in rando actually do?
what enemy/boss has the most health
wikia has those answers
fellas, i'm having a bit of a dilemma
I want to make a mod where you can fight characters and monsters i've been making for a story un-related to HK
Because i honestly just thought (these would be cool as bosses)
But now, i'm thinking about what if you could glimpse into locations from said story
If i were to do that though, would that be crossing a line into "hey check out this story" and just end up being a promotion? Cause that's not really what I want at all
Should i leave that kind of stuff out and just stick with making some fun boss fights?
We ain't all fellas
idk what that's supposed to mean but okay lol
We ain't all men is what it means and you shouldn't use gendered language to refer to a group
thats... not what i was referring to at all
but okay
You could just like apologize and edit your post but instead this
Instead you choose to exclude people
do you have to make such a big deal out of this
Yes
its literally like saying hi guys
how am i excluding people? i've never used "fella" to refer to a man once in my life
i say that when talking to people in general
nobody gives a fuck
you just say hi
Just because you don't
you're the only one saying something about it though...
Ah, so the person telling you there's a problem is the one who creates the problem
i've seen plenty of mods not really "advertised" but "promoted" here it's usually fine since the modding place is usually pretty underrated. Though honestly you're gonna have to have a big task on your hands because youre going to have to draw new atlases and code new behavior and do new art which is a metric fuck ton of work
if other people cared then they'd be ripping me to shreds
true, true
@silver garden a lot of people say hey guys or hello guys a bunch though, And I dont see too many people getting angry. I'm not trying to continue the argument in any way
Or maybe they:
Don't want to deal with this shit.
Aren't here right now.
#736153283508436993 for issues
i think i might hold off on the area thing
but providing little bits of lore might be fun. gets people to be more well acquainted with that they're encountering
That got server feedback, not mod issues
You're literally a mod so do you want me to @ you?
He's trying to nicely tell you to stop arguing in a channel
I'd stick with bosses, a story is prob too big an undertaking for a single person
i've seen a lot of people be the "idea guy" dropping ideas of monsters and stuff but like 99% of those ideas get ignored unless you are wiling to either code, do art, or make areas in unity. And even then, we had someone litearlly make sprites for a boss, and no one wanted to code it, so, you might have to do it all yourself unless you have a team
true yeah
that would be alot of work haha
if you do however perfectly fine to drop some updates and whatnot here
@ saleh chop chop get to work
right, makes sense
and yeah, i'm surprised not many original bosses are really seen from what i know of
How should I deal with this in future? Last time I did it this way and the person responded by saying "I'll do better next time" and then did better next time. Should I at a mod?
unless i haven't looked hard enough haha
there's a mod in development atm but after being on that team i can tell you it's a metric fuck ton of work even with an engine and tools to do stuff for you (e.g. nes's stuff)
im sure somebody's made something but i havent found much
oh yeah it looks like a TON of work
if anything this is just brainfarting fun haha
i doubt i'll be able to do anything with it
it's just fun to think about
https://github.com/SalehAce1/Shade
https://github.com/SalehAce1/Propeller-Knight
https://github.com/SalehAce1/Fennel
Propeller knight and fennel are in the Indie Crossover mod afaik
ohhhhh that's right
i don't know how far shade is developped
He made tutorials on shade iirc
like he did the dive, wraiths and healing and nail hits
i forgot about those bosses haha
and fireball
yeah i think if anything i'll just stick to bosses and an area to fight them in
if i find a group then maybe more but i doubt it
afaik shade was just a concept project
i honestly just thought "man these would be cool in hollow knight" and here i am
a lot of things start as concept projects
the thing i've been working on for four years is still a concept project xD
fate is cruel
should make a maggotprime boss
oh god haha
i wouldn't mind fighting a giant maggot
that's, yknow
not in armor
just a big floppy dude
hmm
has anybody made like, snail bosses? I feel like they'd be very strong with their soul mastery and whatnot
make a bossfight with unn
unn is a slug
too bad
lol
that would be very interesting
send me all variations of maggotprime pl0x
i dont know any snails
If unn was a boss fight they would probably just slam their body into you
only the shamans maybe
same could be said with the rest of the higher beings
imagine fighting PK 👀
tbh sometimes it’s just fun to just come up with ideas
even if you know you’ll never actually make them a reality
aaaaamen
ideas are so much fun
Pale king boss fight 👀
wasnt there some pale court mod or something?
were they planning that, or just the knights?
huh
makes me think about how isma would fight
she doesnt seem like a fighter, then again she was one of the 5 so honestly i'm not sure
i'd tell you but then saleh would have to kill me, then you
worth it
haha
i'm kinda interested now in how the mushrooms might have gone about combat
how long has pale court been developed for?
oh i have no clue
i've only heard the name and some talk about it
idk if there's a trailer or anything or what lol
nice pfp btw
Heed the Champion's Call in this new and unofficial expansion to Hollow Knight. Gather all new charms and make battle with Hallownest's greatest heroes; prove yourself worthy of the Pale Court.
Credit to the folks who made the trailer: https://twitter.com/MolaMolasses/status/1282830809393577984
For more info (and credit to the folks working on...
theres a trailer but it shows very little
I haven't really heard or tried to learn about pale court yet
I'll check out the trailer
So basically the 5 great knights
i'd tell you but then saleh would have to kill me, then you
mebi leaks the most things tho
how do i change my nail scale
there is no mod that does that other than like twitch mod, if that's what youre asking
ok
wow 2.31 kb of assets
damnation
i can't believe that you actially leaked things
it's just very well compressed
ayyyyyy
open it in notepad
I cant believe you gave away the solution 
just look at <#modding-discussion message>
I’d also tell but then everyone else would kill me first
Hey everyone, if I were to try to do a co-op playthrough with a friend, what is the best way to go about doing that? I saw some discussion of "multi world" and wasn't sure if that was the same thing as the multiplayer mod in the modinstaller
Okay, so you would go with the multiplayer mod in the modinstaller?
I would not because I coded more features to my fork of multiplayer
Oh yeah? What are the extra features?
World/save downloading/syncing and now showing other players on the map
Also in game chat
oh okay, i thought thats what you meant by syncing
Gotcha, well that still sounds like it will be alot of fun
how do I go about setting it up?
is there a read me or something so I don't need to waste your time?
Fireb0rn has a tutorial
okay perfect, thanks man
for the charm glorifying mod why cant i get glowing womb to turn to primal womb?
Might be bugged
ok
is there a limit to the stats of grimmchild with grimmchild upgrades and infinite grimm
Read the readme
ive read it like 5 times
Does it say there is a limit
it doesnt specify wether or not there is or isnt
i did 685539 damage to grimm just now i havent seen yet
if it can 1 shot abs rad then i dout there will be a limit
I’d say any rad 2 would be a better comparison
It’s hard to find tmk
ultimatum radiance?
does anyone know if there is a mod that can make the background in a specific fight with a very bright background easier to look at?
are you talking about absrad
blind radiance mod?
gonna try to find it
forgot where it was
oh it was you i thought it was by 753 🥴
thank you!! Ive only got ||Absrad|| and ||Markoth|| left to beat in the hall of gods
this will make it much easier
but is ultimatum radiance mod rad 2?
is it a good idea to install and enable all the mods that are on the mod installer?
no
dont indirectly advertise in other channels
makes the game look like it's rendered in letters
which one tho
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhPhExQvCew all of them
Here's my showcase of the ASCII Mod, a mod which renders Hollow Knight's graphics into ASCII text! YouTube encoding was rather unkind to this video. The mod was created by Katie and 56. I chose to showcase some different areas of the game, and paused a lot along the way so that the ASCII could be appreciated.
If you'd like to download the mod, ...
I am curious about something regarding mods...at least in terms of where you get them
I notice Nexus Mods has a few mods, are they also part of the pile of mods on the google drive or those are separate things?
No. They are separate and not maintained or written by anyone here, so if something happens to your game by using them, we can't help you
All official mods are distributed from this discord only
Anyone has the Pale Court promo art?
search on the subreddit by top of the month i think
weird request but can anyone try and make a sekiro in hollow knight mod or something?
with deflects and the grappling hook and stuff
just wait for silksong, it has both of those
silksong is not actually exists
What are these?
A series of skins (and more)
The creators are planning to add a boss in Newborn-Autumn
Yea
Cool, cool
Who's the creator?
Also, wdym add a boss-
Just like, a boss that comes with the skin?
Seems I uploaded once, and not many noticed
I believe he means a new boss fight in the mod in the works
Ask away
When i Download Spritepicker, where do i put it?
It defaults to opening the images in the default file path
So you should just be able to open it and it find them
Also there's a language drop down at the bottom.
There's a YouTube video linked in the pins on this channel or modding Development
Im really sorry for bragging for all of this@silver garden
I just Spammed questions
im such a Dum -Dum
Also I was overhearing that Charm Overhaul and Exaltation have clashing issues with one another, is that still apparent or was it fixed?
Not sure if this is the right channel. When using the item randomizer mod, what does it mean when I take "The Dreamers"? It's just all the dreamers?
can someone give me the hamachi link
You have "duplicate major items" on, which adds a Generic Dreamer to the randomization pool, and it says "Taken the Dreamer" when you pick it up
what mod makes the focus description tell you how many grubs and dreamers you have
what mod makes this description change to tell you how many grubs and dreamers you have
what does the redwing mod and redwing assets mod do
nvm
anyone got links for good custom skins
What skin will that be?
thanks
Your Welcome
i saw aspid child and thought it was a skin for ghost and i was scared
best mod
babie
i love it
definitely one of the better made skins out there
but my skins are always the best /s
can i see some
what if in the hornet mod hornet was ghost
tall knight
GUESS WHO MIGHT BE THE FIRST PERSON IN THE WORLD TO GET TO 10000 DAMAGE IN INFINITE GRIMM WITH LITERALLY JUST THE OLD NAIL
No spells, no charms, just me and my nail.
Correction
11000 now
sike
good luck taking my record
Is that normal mode
I believe it's Randomiser 3
You can get Bingo UI instead if you don't want to use Rando, which gives you some stats on the start menu like grubs
you'd need to mod that seperately
Hi with the multiplayer mod is there a way to both hurt the same boss at the same time?
[4:06 PM]
it's like we're fighting separate ones
not sure if i should have posted that here or help
Hello, all!
Just wanted to share and update, that my Hollow Knight Save File Analyzer Web Tool (for checking what is left to do in Hollow Knight) has a massive Major New Release v1.0 and is finally out of Beta 🙂
Be sure to check all the changes, there is a lot of new things (including directly choosing a save file from disk):
https://steamcommunity.com/app/367520/discussions/0/2915472677711090083/#c3105763714515820190
The tool should be much easier and more convenient to use now (I hope 😅 ).
BTW. You can also use it completely offline or even on your phone (both offline and online, doesn't matter). Just save the page where you want.
Know someone who is stuck in Hollow Knight? My tool can help you.
Hi, fellow Hollow Knight fans! 🙂 I wrote a simple Tool which analyzes your save file and shows you exactly everything you have done (✅) and not yet done (❌) in the game world. Also I designed a hint system (more info below). ✅ Shows all individual Mask Shards and Vessel Fragments + their locations/costs (optional, hidden by default) ✅ Shows all ...
Really nice work! Looks really good! Do you have your code on github or somewhere?
I tested it with a few "weird" files and it works great for those.
just give yourself dreamnail and go wake grimm
hall of gods? 🤔
Hall of Gods is a place in the game
it's in the bottom of godhome

r/whoosh
can i disable only the art mods half-mod with the wingshade font but keep the other things it adds or no?
nvm
is exaltation still being updated?
Is it? I don't know
All I know is that I heard charm overhaul and exaltation are still potentially unstable together
im in enemy room and item rando and why cant i open confesor jijis door it says this when i try
i have a simple key
but why cant i open the door tho?
yea if I recall, a simple key is needed in order to progress the story me thinks
Could you please add Newborn-Spring in the pinned sheets?
a skin
A skin
oh ok
that does remind me, I do have custom knight mods so I might as well look at what skin I'd like
...I only found 1 and that is the white cloak
which may or may not be where they got the lightbringer skin from
white cloak came after.
I guess it was extracted from the mod
mhm
so I suppose by that means I can play lightbringer with the original skin
now to remember how to properly add the skins
is there any particular reason the readme and the charm discriptions for blackmoth are just straight up wrong half the time?
guess someone didn't update the readme files
well darn
ooo
lightbringer is weird
the upstrike and downstrike should have more damage than 1 tbh
I think i will make a Mantis Skin for the Knight
any upcoming fun mods?
Pale Court
other than that
sanctuary
also pale court and sanctuary will be free on the mod manager right?[and will there be new abilities or something?]
can only really say things for pale court, which i won't do because saleh would kill me
free on the mod manager
yea for pale court, highly likely for sanctuary
new abilities
idk for sanctuary
feb 30th
^
The sanctuary: no date yet
What is the sanctuary?
The 2nd mod to feature a new area
wait what
think about it
🤔

...should we tell em?
nah
ok
what
🤔


🤔
i don't think he/she/they figured it out yet
