well, hoo knows what was wrong lmao
thanks i hate you guys 
ok hunt 
Im serious, whats the catch
oh
Put it on your calendar
you're welcome ❤️
February go brrrrr
Honestly im more dissapointed in myself
I have a question about the bonfire mod, there a toggle button for it?
its kinda in the way of some other mod options
Afaik, no way to solve except disabling one of the mods or modifying their code
well that kinda sucks
it would be good to have a menu toggler, but I suppose that can be a future thing
mone
are you going to do a recolor for the knight or add more custom features?
ill try to add custom features but if i give up its gonna be another recolor lol
recolors are way easier so i don't blame you lol
i just thought of this and im wondering if it would even be possible to make a portal mod in hk, imagine how cool that would be
it would probably be harder than most mods
if any mod people want to do something with twitch channel points https://twitchchannelpoints.devpost.com/
I remember them saying they were going to try not doing a recolor, I suggested a robe for The Knight but idk if that’ll happen
Hey, are there any tweaks that make Grubberfly's Elegy quieter, or silent? Additionally, are there any that reduce particle nonsense & screenshake from stuff like Descending Dark/Abyss Shriek, or Radiance?
yo any news on the cyberknight mod?
Try searching for keywords in the top right
anyone knows the name of the mod that makes you equip every charm?
infinite notches
Is there a mod that lets you fight all three nailmasters at once?
akin to the Tribe of Battle mod?
If not... I might try to make it...
i want a custom knight sheet with this head, it always catches my eye when i pass it

i think there was a mod called "the nailmasters" that does that
buts it's not on the installer for whatever reason
this is that but I named it better 🙂
oh lol
Where are the mods posted that aren't on loader?
Is there some site or they just scattered on people's computers?
I think my friend was also making one based off of that as well!
ooooh hell yeah! lemme know if/when they finish it :3
Will do
can you guys recommend me some skins?
I just realised that in order to make a custom skin complete, i have to do 214 animations
well, that will take a while
Mhm
And that might be on only one file, I'm not sure
there's a total of 70 something files
Im still not sure what to do when i finish the animation
does it show in sprite picker automaticly or???
@restive bloom what mod are you making?
You pinged wrong Charles.
Hello hello
the right ones offline
What do you need?
not you
need the charles making a skin to find out what hes doing
and whether im gonna download it
Wait wh?
just realised i pinged you


Anyways
Which charles are you talking about
Aki?
Cuz that's the one who's making skins right now
Working on an angel skin at the moment
Did you know that you don't need a mod to equip every charm at once?
You can just go to https://bloodorca.github.io/hollow/ and change the value of charmslots to the value needed.
can you mod hollow knigt on switch
yeah, the mod that does that even overrides that data, so to uninstall it you not only disable it in the modinstaller, but also have to saveedit the notch value to a normal amount
no
Why?
because the switch doesn't allow people to just modify games on it
And if you connect it to a computer and modify it like that?
that would require jailbreaking your switch, which is in itself a risky process
and i'm not even sure if the switch will run modified assemblies
ah ok
But also i dont think the switch will notice that.
that the assembly is modified
Okay to be more specific
You would have to build it yourself
There are no resources on this discord explicitly for modding the switch version of the game
if your switch was manufactured after the fusee-gelee hardware patch was addressed, and you've updated your firmware past 4.1.0, then you won't be able to homebrew
you can read more on switch homebrew here: https://switch.homebrew.guide/gettingstarted/beforestarting.html
Also: the switch probably wouldnt be able to recognise its not even recognising anything
yes, it is called Glass Soul
nice

The only famous Charles here is you

I was interested in that Crossover boss fights mod thing
how many of them were added in?
pog
Just wanted to poke in and say thank you to the modding community. These have been a fresh breath of air on a game I love and have already drowned too many hours into. Thank you.
anybody got any tips for the fool challenge? seems so rng based rather than skill based and cant figure out how to do it
Use abyss shriek
There's a specific order you have to do so abyss shriek doesn't mess you up
I don't remember what it was
oh yeah just alternate
https://youtu.be/R9TmO1-EpZU?t=300 @high cipher
will give it a shot i guess usually when i shriek 1 of the minions hit him as hes comin down
You can practice in the eo
I love that
wait holy shit that's awesome

what mod is this?
hey, could i do the shade statue art by any chance?? (sorry for ping)
3
yes
yeah im making the angel knight mod
im making the Mantis Knight mod
Thinking about trying out one of the larger mods. Any recommendations? I might start with Lightbringer
yeah, that or hollow point
decoration master for community levels, but they tend to be very difficult
Isn’t hollow point just the meme gun mod?
I'm pretty sure it's meant to be balanced, at least early game.
but don't quote me on this
Ttaco is putting a lot of effort in for a "meme mod"
Multiple guns and stuff
I'm sure they are trying to make it balanced in some way
lots of charm synergies and effort
I see
Anyone have some good mod recommendations?
mine
mine
Latest version so far
Just put it in mod folder and then just open your game to load files then close it
Keep in mind, this mod is very early and is still being worked on
Yes
All broken enemies, there may be more as it was just updated(Colo varians are not broken on this version so you can use em)
Who made this?
probably sawyer
Saleh did but stopped
Saleh originally made it, and it looks like sawyer made it playable
Sawyer I assume just finished it up
The names in the hunters journal are indeed how you create enemies
https://hollowknight.fandom.com/wiki/Damage_Values_and_Enemy_Health_(Hollow_Knight)
all names are here if you want them
so there's no way to edit while in game?
fair enough
do added journal entries work
doubt it
3
might've installed too much moddage
idk. a lot
it's ok, I didn't really want to get into it today anyway, it was mostly curiosity
I was wondering if perhaps I could screenshot the arena with the preset platforms, and map out what coordinates refer to where
for easier use
Like grid it or something
That'd be cool
but that'll have to wait I guess
I did try creating a program that would read and write xml files but the tools I was using were being annoying
maybe I'll pick it back up
Also no eyes doesnt work, she goes off screen iirc
Some enemies work but they just dont follow colloseum behaviour
I'd bet on benchwarp killing it if it still doesn't work after changing the xml
Benchwarp is a bit heavy so id suggest uninstalling it ye
and you changed Grimm to Troupe Master Grimm?

are you using Windows?
you can press Windows+R to bring up a Run prompt, then enter %APPDATA% to find the location of Roaming
AppData should then be one directory up from there
what's gone
do you know where your users folder is
C:\Users\<YourUser>\
You don't have to use run prompt. You can just open file explorer and put that whole savespath in the address bar.
oh yeah lol
Google how to view hidden folders
Then find savepath
The folder is objectively there if you even just started the game
Spamming 
Google how to view hidden folders
Here's your solution
View hidden files and folders in Windows 10
can you screenshot your file explorer?
you don't have this?
is there a Hidden items checkbox to the right under View?
make sure that's checked then see if AppData appears under your user folder
you tried copying the url into the address bar?
hey guys do u kno how I would set up the manhunter mod that allows you to play with multiple ppl hunting down the :speedrunner"
i saw it on youtube
has anyone ever made a tas yet?
multiplayer mod https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSOqacQx4Ls skip the first two sections and get it from the modinstaller
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.

thank you so much!
I remember seeing a sprite sheet where someone added the cute "3" mouth to all of the Knight's sprites. Is that a custom skin I can download anywhere? I'd love to use that with the "Howwow Knyight" mod. I haven't been able to find it through googling
check pins
Oops. Thanks! I'll take a look
Welp I found it but only in jpg 
oof
Is the only difference that the white is filled in?
i don't think jpgs have transparency
seems so but that's a very big difference
Alright, but couldn't you just find the corresponding atlas, put it as a new layer on top, set your magic wand to all layers and then adjust to be larger by a few pixels, ctrl x on the bottom layer to delete the white, move the bottom layer on top of the top layer, fuse layers and save as png?
Since the only changes would be near the middle of the sprites?
oh shit yeah
put the atlas on the bottom, put this on top, turn on alpha
hold on
@iron valve it's not perfect since the original still has compression stuff, but at least you can use it
Holy crackers, I would have taken hours doing manual work to get this. But you did it in a minute :0
Tyty <3
Nah the quality woulda probably been bad considering laziness
It works! You're all amazing
UWU!
uwu
Uuwuu
no
Self promotion. Banned.
might be having fun with some mod i found recently
oh fuck!
well idk if official name lol
Right after decoration master
coming soon: multiplayer coolness update but it's more cooler than a bunch of other mods
not releasing details
if i could also somehow modify bosses i would make collector spawn only crystal hunters on ascended
because i like suffering to some degree
Well if you won't work on the small details it's gonna suck 
So obviously the details should be released along with the main bulk

You can it's called modding
well there is no real hollow knight modding tutorial from what i've seen lol
someone get the apidocs
Welcome the the wide world of modding, the people of #archived-modding-development have been expecting you
video tutorials is probably what you want
I'm too slow 
i never knew that existed wow
Actually you might want human guidance
yes let my pet Uuwuu guide you
Wouldn't you want to do as much as possible solo and then get guidance when you have issues?
oh wow it's almost 1 am
I gtg
If you have any questions, @crisp echo, you can ask in #archived-modding-development, they love all new modders
my code is like really bad tho
Modding sounds fun
It is
wanna try
Yes
You torture yourself as you playtest
After I'm done revising the big lore document
anyway who thinks it's a good idea to continue my "mod from json" mod
Knowing that others will be tortured further as they actually try to beat the boss instead of just test the attacks work
sort of a sequel to customknight+
Nah
I mean that just sounds like decomaster with extra steps

It is, don't worry
Only programming I've ever done is the first few chapters of python's "think like a comouter scientist"
From what i heard it doesn't translate over at all
tmk doesn't really
any programming will help in some way
only coded a bit in python and it was years ago
The concepts are universal
Syntax is terribly different though
And there's a lot of Unity and slightly-more-HK-specific things
well i guess i do have kinda extensive modding background but not sure if i can easily pick up on this game's modding
considering i've never messed with c# much lol
Is it poorly regarded to modify someone else's mod?
nah it's fine
personally I would get permission from the creator first
that's only if I'm planning changes for the version in the mod installer though
if I'm just making a fork of it to have some fun on, it's fine
anyway I'm gonna go sleep
bye!
Cya
alright so seems like that trial mod doesn't want to use fool enemies lol
at the very least shielded fool and winged fool doesn't work
unless its something else that is the issue
actually need to know where to post messages like that lol
One day I'll be a real modder. :']
does making custom knight skins count as a real modder
Aww, you already are
By the simple logic that you already did way more than I did, and I am a modder, therefore you are
i made a dumb falldamage mod does that count
oh and i have an unfinished customknight
yes to both
:'''] good old transitivity. ugh, i am failing spectacularly on trying to just make some enemies into TikTiks.
I like mod makin', it's a great way to learn the ins-and-outs of C# and Unity (for the coding-based mods) but I do feel really dumb asking simple questions that I can't figure out from google/stacks. It's v humbling.
I tried to mod, was completely fine. Until I tried to install multiplayer hollow knight. I broke my computer. 😔
Yes to both
but
really? I was certain you did more 
Hi. Might anyone know how many total rooms are there in Hollow Knight?
at least 7
uhh well. you're not wrong
no I mean unique room areas that are separated by transition screens. meaning: the area you come down to from dirtmouth is +1 room... the area with many platforms connected to the grubfather room is +1 room... so on and so forth.
mr slons was joking
/r/technicallythetruth
but seriously idk
yeah the folks over at #hk-discussion said as much 🙂
#randomizer could be a good place to ask
does anyone know how many knight sprites there are?
you might need to do a command to get perm though
like individual sprites
at least 3

~430 - ~480 rooms
ty
Nice, thanks! I count 394 🙂
are you still able to get the pale king skin?
You can get the public version from pinned
whats this
the shade mod?
Modboss
oh ok
Fight your shade
poggers
idk if its related but there are 498 level# files in the hollow knight data folder
a bunch of them are cutscenes, or levels with just a boss in them
GG moment
thanks
godhome scenes would technically all be a room, as there is a transition in and transition out
but they are not in room rando afaik
does anyone know if itd be possible to make a mod which replaces the godhome arenas in hall of gods with the original arenas? (this wouldnt translate to ascended most likely due to arena changes)
I have installed Custom Trial
However, no enemy appears ...
Other mods have been uninstalled ...
What should i do?
(This is a google translated text.)
Upload the xml located in the CustomTrial folder located under your Mods folder

Hmmm...what other mods do you have enabled?
Oh, it worked!!!!
Thank youuuuuuu!!!!!!
no problem, and by the way, the version you're using is old, here's an updated version
but if you want to use fireb0rn's xml and don't want to change it, then you'll have to use the one you have now
OK!
hello, does anyone know if i want to make skins, a software for spriting thats accessible for mac?
decoration master?
Ive messed with it so far, and theres some stuff that doesn't work but only enemies
it works fine
Try being more respectful when people give you things to play with for free.
These things are a work in progress and made by fans in their spare time.
It's not terrible, it's unoptimised.
lmao
Oh god, what pain am I about to put myself through...
welp let's do this
I'm scared
can anyone post updates on what it is lmao
dont have a pc and im a little curious
didnt actually realise that was fire lol yeah true
hello! Long time hk player and fan, but have never played around with mods. Can someone show me some good mods pls?

They're too entitled
Yes, if thers a syntax error in the xml file or one of the enemies is mispelt or is unrecognisable then it doesnt load any mods at all
I assume they mean that
So they have a spelling mistake and are blaming the mod? 
why would should a malformed xml break other mods from loading
Idk
is there a public repo for that updated version?
There is but it might be a bit safer to use the old one
The new one has broken soul twistrs and volt twisters
and where?
And also doesnt work with fireb0rns xml since the layout changed
i hate the shade boss, i got it to less than 100hp and it healed itself to 600 fucking health in 5 seconds
i thought of a public repository, where the source code can be looked at
Oh
everything's local for now
I think I could implement some sort of error checking to prevent the mod from breaking the entire modloader

You'd be happy to know that this kind of regeneration is part II of my current mod in progress 

Yeah, that heal was rough. I ended up using Sprintmaster/Dashmaster/Sharp Shadow to hopefully keep interrupting it.
Still wasn't always successful.
something that prevents the prevention of other mods loading sounds good
what did methyl post?
Hm? Is it meant to be a .json?
its a ip file
?
I'm... confused. How does it work?
How does what work
It's supposed to be a decoration master level, but it's not in the format those usually are. I don't know what an ip file is, I don't know how to properly install a .rar file.
i don't know what HuntHussle means with "ip file", but the contents of the .rar archive contain the json parts for each wp scene
Same about the ip file
Extract it then use the Json files inside
Oh, it's just another type of compressed file. Gotcha.
What is a ip file
He meant zip
oh yeah i meant ip
🤔
my key next to x doesnt work
?
And aliant is offline so i cant copy his key next to x
untHussle#5575 used confusion edFrog6002#8851 is confused
lmao
Now I am go play among us
cya
do they want it added to the custom levels drive?
Can we get Geralt of Rivia dress style for little ghost?

make it
ignore the ugly ass layout
can someone send a link to the updated custom skins drive thingy
Check the pins
ah thanks
does the Hollow Point mod no longer work with Item randomizer?
no update was made to either so i dont see why it wouldnt
I try to run an item randomizer with hollow point, and the gun never shows up
But if I run it without the randomizer the gun does show up
hollow point doesnt work on a new save, this may be the issue you're running into
But it did work when I did a new save without the randomizer mod
read hollow point's readme. it is a Known Issue
ok thanks, didn't think of that
yeah I should have tried that already
Thanks it works
is there a way into city without monarch wings, lantern, or crest? with no skips required
havent done a rando in a while.. feel like i need to get into RG from crystal peaks but i cant do that dark room
blue lake?
shade skip into it from salubra?
well, do you have cdash/claw?
i mean, with claw

Thinking about making a custom knight skin
does anyone know where i can find like
a guide for the spritesheet?
cuz honestly thats the only thing thats been keeping me from doing that so far
a guide?
yeah
because its really hard to tell whats what on the knights spritesheet
and where stuff starts and ends
If you use Godump, you'll get everything organised into animations
It's in the pins
I think
And spritepacker turns it back
ill look into all that stuff
thanks!
hi there!
um
im kinda nw here
but i wanna make a custom skin../
i don't reaallly know the process though?
oop sorry
oh goodness! and i use krita, thats awesome
I'll give it a shot
did you want feedback
@amber hull
@amber hull did you playtest it?
I don't mean this to sound mean
Also, is this meant to be played with QoL?
you need Vasi and ModCommon
gonna remove the ModCommon dependency if the mod gets to a releasable state
i have all the dependencies downloaded anyway
ezpz first try. Anyways, I like some of the ideas, but there are a lot of issues. Most aren't really your fault so I can't really blame you for them
a lot of glitches
Uhhh where do I start
bosses will go outside the arena and get semi-stuck
dung defender can just disappear and softlock you
alright
also, spirit bosses behave very differently, idk if you knew?
Galien doesn't spawn the first scythe, xero only attacks if you jump. Those are cool effects, but I don't know if it's intentional
I'm fine with those changes I was just curious.
definitely not
What
they have weird behaviors
f l a t
Oh, I know you didn't intend it, but as a level maker that's actually really cool for us.
Because that allows us to use them as assist bosses instead of very aggravating annoyances.
A xero that only attacks if you go too high is great with pure vessel
Now, for design issues
Grimm on his own is a bit... eh? It's just kind of attuned grimm but glitchier
I would have liked some extra enemy spawns perhaps?
Not necessarily a boss?
Yeah he gets stuck in the wall
And you get to hit him for free
And also his spikes aren't matched to the arena, there's a safe spot to the right
true
He also gets stuck to the left of the arena
When doing the bats attack
but yeah, just not on his own i guess
yeah the cape spikes are designed to only fit his small arena, not something as wide as the colo
Two collectors as one is a bit over the top, but I guess it's fine because this doesn't exist on radiant. I didn't have strength anyway, so that's probably on me.
yeah that's fine, just room for level makers to get more creative.
i meant at once
grimm's fireballs are also harder to dodge slightly, because they're higher off the ground
i don't know
hmm
the watcher knight and the husk
perhaps two watcher knights, like in the boss?
I thought it was a nice idea, since the husk is a free heal
but that means you can make the fight that comes with the husk harder
Hive knight also gets stuck a lot to the left of the arena
So it's just a fight against only marmu, then a fight against only collector, then a fight against only hive knight
but that's not really your fault, and when the collector does spawn jars it does improve the challenge
hive knight also gets unstuck on his own
just takes a while
galien as the last enemy doesn't make much sense, since he's a bit of a heal enemy? Maybe a final boss fight afterwards
Like a floor is lava... idk nkg or whatever
Or maybe there's a platform in the middle
Great job though! Looking forward to more maps
or, rather, trials
and i know that's a lot of comments
but you can ignore any of this, I might as well just be rambling
Yeah, but you can simply kill the collectors before galien
and then the trials ends on a very anticlimactic galien fight
feel free to disregard everything i say though
It was fine actually. He has very little health.
More of a complaint with the mod itself, could the death particles on bosses be removed?
oh wait was the reward changed?
guess not.
A thought: upon playing again, I noticed that traitor lord spawns far enough above the ground that you can stand under him and spam upslash
which can kill him before he actually goes to the ground
does it usually give 5k upon completion?
sure
follow up: do they want into the kaizo hollow knight server ( I don't know what language they speak, khk is in English)
Hello, would anyone be interested in helping Beta-test a new HK Mod? I'm currently working with a team and we're looking to have the beta setup by the end of Feb
Also, is it a parkour mod- I will readily admit I suck at HK platforming
Sure would be, that sounds interesting
The project is lore-based as well as NPC-fighting based
so the platforming will be the same, but the interactions and difficulty for the mod are being tested
which is the main focus
That sounds like a lot of fun
That’s awesome. I consider myself a pretty casual player so hopefully I’ll be a good difficulty gauge haha
feel free to dm me for the invite
What's that
sorry to ask again but, does anyone know if itd be possible to make a mod which replaces the godhome arenas in hall of gods with the original arenas? (this wouldnt translate to ascended most likely due to arena changes)
yeah
Hm
An interesting challenge
I don't know how easy it would be to make though
Seems kind of complex
damn 😔
Yeah, sadly
I think the Godhome scenes are kind-of-maybe-hardwired to work together with the Pantheons/Hall of Gods
thats a problem
That's wayyy beyond what I can do though, so that's up to the others to decide if they want to make
If anyone wants a mod where literally everything is a tiktik, hit me up. It's a nightmare.
It is both my dream and my nightmare.
If anyone says tiktiks arent the best: I will fite them. Yeah, it's rando, haha.
Can you, uh
Explain?
haha im trying this out now and: no, we cannot explain it.
haha.
They're everywhere!
literally anything with a health manager i think?
@neon sigil there's a two mask split in there
if thats the case, then that’s kinda funny that there are things with health in the credits lol
Oh I thought you were confused what I was talking about 
Thank you, Jen. Jen is always inspiring me to make "high-quality mods".
Good choice, good choice
But it seems even more generalised
Hm
Yeah, there's a LOT of these bois around, so I think something is afoot here.
But I'm not complainin'.
new idea
Haha, it breaks a LOT of the game tho. Gruzmom :'[
replace EVERY gameobject
YES
That
Anything at all
Let's see how fast we break the game
In milliseconds
omg pls. That sounds amazing.
All I want is the main menu theme to feature floating Tiktiks, is that too much to ask, Team Cherry?

Picture this, but tiktiks 😌
it's a sight to behold
Pls feel free to fork my code and destroy the game at your leisure.
Is that a trans tiktik-
Awwaiiwiwiwwwweeeeeee
So cuteeee
how did you do thattttt
Haha, that already is a mod, it's transtrans, it's a v cute mod.
Awesomeee
We made a server where people who make custom levels for Hollow Kmight can share ideas, playtest levels and compile useful info and tech
Also, in case they don't: did they have a name for the level? Like impossible white palace or palace of pain or something?
Something disappointing that I found out not too long ago is that you can’t complete the hunter’s journal in an item rando
Because you can’t kill bluggsacs
Hello everyone ^^
I have two questions concerning modding HK
- Is there a FAQ concerning creating a mod? (my idea is to rename the bosses names - and I have no clue where to start)
- Does the modding affects the achievement system?
🙂
for the 2nd one, not on steam
^
not sure about other platforms
thank you @restive bloom for answering question 2 🙂
If I mod. The first one I'm trying is G U N
It affects GOG, if your game has mods you cant get achievementts
if u verify it then you can get em after
What's GOG?
galaxy of games
What is that?
steam but not chad
If I'm buying it on PC it'll definitely be on Steam
good choice
I'm waiting for a sale
Good old games, steam but DRM-free
looks about right
that guide though
Thats one hell of a guide
@wet cloud is there a github page with the latest version of the custom trials, or somewhere you put the most recent version?
Hm. I was just wondering what to link to in the drive
just put the version along with the map in a ip file
#hk-discussion message
the one fireb0rn used
Fireb0rns xml does not work with the newst version cus layout changed
Ohhh
Once again for people wondering: zaliant stole hussle's Z key and ran away with it, so the "ip file" is a zip file
thank you grenade
It does have a name
Grossish white palace, I believe it's something like this
WOT
Yes in Randomiser you can get items placed randomly
my game has crashed twice now from using desolate dive with hollow point, the first time a mistake changed into a devout and i was inside it, the second time an enemy crashed into me and the game crashed. i think its on the spore pulse thing what should i change it to so the game doesnt crash
and enemy rando is on
also a description of what desolate dive does as a breacher skill, saboteur skill, and observer skill would be nice
Hey guys for the people who play with custom skins, the skin "Rick" from Rick & Morty is glitched. When you kill some bug, the geo is there on the floor but invisible
That's a common bug in the custom skins thing, it happens for a ton of skins. I think the gist was you can put in the geo png file into the custom folder and it'll help, but it still happens to me.
it took me over 10 hours to find this.
god
already had every single upgrade needed and then claw was hell
what would a unn boss fight look like
up to you, as long as you make the fight
Just fn spits on you
@amber hull did you want your trial added to the custom levels drive?
Have any of you ever tried using LB and CoL at the same time?
It actually works surprisingly well
Custom knight doesn’t seem to be working
When I go to the menu I see the skin names on the side but when I press on one the menu disappears and I’m still the default knight
do you have modcommon?
No
get it
np
huh
Some skins are just different colours
as in?
The Grimm skin should have different horns
But it just has the regular
And the infected skin just makes the knight orange
show your screenshot
Debug and enemy Hp
huh odd
Huh. Yeah, gott'a be something with the custom knight files.
open it
Which one
the infected one
it seems like your skins are just recolors
the photo is blurry though
try to download the skins again
The zote skin moves around a lot
thats usually the skin maker's fault, not the game
Yeah, you may want to take your screenshots on the PC, not from your phone, just for clarity. You can do this by (on windows) Start > Snipping Tool > New, then when you snip the thing you want, right-click to copy+paste it here. But agreed, it looks like the skin-maker didn't do much except recolor.
The zote skin moving around is probably something like the png got mis-aligned or something.
yes
shortcut for that is Win + Shift + S
mine is win + shift + s
and if you do that you can directy paste it you dont need to copy again
i think even mine is
Oh wow, I didn't know that! This saves me a lott'a effort! Thanks y'all, TIL.
its shift btw not control
but if your dealing with screenshots the snipping tool is annoying because you have to manually save it.
Yeah, you can also right-click and copy. But this shortcut is a lot easier, so I'm gonna use it now. Haha.
you can just paste the contents of the clipboard directly in discord, though you may want to make sure that no personal information is in the screenshot
yea but if you want to save it for later then you would have to go open the screenshot then press save and then give save location
Re: Cucumber's issue: it seems to just be the skins, though. Try some "standard" skins, available in pins, and see if those work better. If so, it's the skins you downloaded that were bad.
Yeah the main problem was the skins
Nothing wrong with the files or game
Thanks for the help
okay, hear me out....mod to make all rooms in the game connected. youd need to approach gameplay differently as an enemy can follow you for quite a long while, itd make it more challenging in a different way than many other mods
My old gpu started crying reading this.
the load would take fucking ages, but other than that itd be a ton of fun
the gates would shut on bosses tho, and they wouldnt be able to enter rooms like black egg temple and anestral mound, but everything else would be connected
that would take a complete game rewrite
enemies following you can be easily removed by dashing away
never mind then
not always. there are many places where it would hurt
In theory, if optimisation isn't an issue, couldn't you just jam every room into a single room, like the layouts and enemy spawns
you would have to completely change how enemies are loaded, how rooms are loaded, how rooms are oriented, enemy AI
etc etc etc
you would be writing a new game
hm
the only thing you'd get to keep would be the current assets
yeah, that makes sense, sorry
i mean you gotto be smart about it. the only enemies i can think of that chase you well are the flukemons
aspids, infected flys, enemies falling thru what would be portals to fuck u over, lance dudes,
so many
these arent fast enough. you can outrun them
Yes, but not forever
^
youd need to kill them else theyll chase u to where u do some platforming or something else
eventually they would lose their agro
the whole point is they wouldnt lose agro
If you're reprogramming ai anyway, they wouldn't need to
ahh
you could even program in a slingshot mechanic if it bothers you
i though normal ai thats already in the game
who wanna do hk multiplayer, accepting up to 4 others
This is my favorite custom skin by far
nice
Maybe one could just spawn in enemies that were following you into the next room?
Why not, every stressed enemy immediately at the entrance to the next room
Tried Mantis Gods mod
Very hard, but now i have two void idol entries 
Maybe i can get 3 once i am done with all bosses on radiant
its an idea, would pro bably be eaiser to code, but i have no idea
An idea for a mod I have is called “Sibling Revenge” where you have to fight Pure Vessel, Lost Kin, and Hornet Sentinel at the same time plus Sibling enemies occasionally spawn as well, Good Luck!
Are you going to make it
Eventually
sweet
Do you want this on the custom levels drive?
Also, you should probably post the version this was made with, since they're not always compatible @amber hull
uh
I mean, there are already custom trials on there
just along with your custom trial
fireb0rn's and hunthussle's are there
I'm new to this modding stuff where are safe downloads (Ik i sound dumb im just cautious)
on the modinstaller, in the pins
oh ok
The goal is just to have them all in one convenient place
For people to access community made content
pins
Oh, I guess I should tell ins0 we added trials
oh you extended it quite a bit
@amber hull are the oblobbles modified?
either way, pretty nice
I had a good time with it (:
is this different from the last one?
i guess it would have to be
alright I'll check it out
Welp time to get the mod and try to beat it whilst being a Hallow Knight noob
Hooray! : D
Oh wait...
Well I beat PoH on my third try after making it to AbsRad on my first so was it dumb luck and I am a noob? Or does it mean I am good?
skilled or not I think this might be a softlock
Vengefly king spawned far off to the right
Spells do not reach, dash slash does not reach
@amber hull was there a lot left after vengefly king?
Looking at the file, that's a no
Pretty fun also. I kind of like where this is going.
Can I get some help? I'm playing the randomizer and I'm stuck. I know I can trade rancid eggs with Jiji, but I don't know how to do it
What do you mean you're stuck
I don't got dive so I can't get into crystal peaks or several other places and I don't have for dash so I can't access a few place that need it
So you don't know where to go? The mod has a map for those situations.
I meant on this version, to know if it was worth replaying the whole thing to see what's after the softlock.
A map?
But it's fine, I looked at the .xml
Talking to elderbug a couple times gives you a map of item checks you haven't looked at yet
including where you need to go next
130 is out of bounds of the arena
I talked to elder bug a bunch and no go
Check the helper log
It's in \AppData\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight
RandomizerHelperLog.txt
It shows every check you have access to that you haven't checked, as well as things you have checked but didn't buy like stags or shops
Mind me asking how I find the seed as well?
The seed is in the tracker log (which shows what you've picked up) as well as the spoiler log (which has a full list of where everything is)
You're saying so much that I don't understand a single thing of
How so I get to app data?
In the readme for Randomizer 3 it says that you can trade rancid eggs for hints with Jiji
Press win +r and then paste this
%AppData%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight
Why can't I just trade rancid eggs with Jiji?!
Nvm I know the answer to that
Okay, tf is win +r
Are you on a windows computer?
Windows 10
win + r means hold the key with the windows icon on it and press r
Alternatively, click the search icon in the bottom left corner, and search for "run"
Jiji hints aren't that helpful anyway
It's either the seal by Willoh's meal (middle left room of Queen's station, requires wings) or the one in the top of the room right from Queen's station with all the sporgs
I'm not sure which
I never knew that was up there
yep, that's how learning rando is lol
You can also install RandoMapMod from the mod installer, it shows where checks are
I knew it was a lot of "shit I could do that?" But still
here's a slightly improved custom trial editor with a slightly updated custom trial mod
k
@wet cloud can i get a screenshot of the editor, work pc doesn't let me test it myself
I'm in bed rn but I can still get a screenshot for you a few hours if you're still at work then
maybe i'm home at that point, so don't worry, gn8 i guess lmao
other than the placement, which i don't know how i would have done it better, it looks very usable
thx btw
i just tried it and the sprites are like placing way above than where i placed em
oh wait the cursor isnt shown
well the cursor is on the floor
likely because of scrolling
I think it's because it's placing it where the (invisible) cursor is, and not where the image is centered.
probably yeah
yea, placed at cursor position inside the scroll thing, not accounted for the scrolled distance
Please be constructive in your criticism. This is the second time I've seen you insult people and their hard work, and I'm not even looking very hard. To help, it is better to explain what the issue is (without insulting it), give an example (like we have above), and, if you have an idea of a solution, explain that.
Did they get yoted on
Anyways yeah, I haven't quite figured out how to map the cursor along the strollers and, an offset exists if you don't maximize the window before you begin placing things
Not to mention that the resulting xml doesn't actually map precisely to the in game coords
Ah ic
Well the display imo is actually alright, imo there should be a button that should let you stop placing
A workaround would be to check the Selection Mode box
Which btw allows you to select enemies on the canvas and modify their hp
how can i revert hollow knight back to vanilla?
its also crashing often
i disabled all the mods but it still says Modding API in the corner
Do you have steam or GOG
angel knight sneakpeak
Hype
Why did i read "squeakpeak"?
I wanna ask, is there a mod that can make a charm spawn at any place?
I just want the 'pickup animation' at the starting place for a shitpost video I wanna make.
Afaik no
You can use a video editor
You mean change background? green screen?
Like go to any relic pickup and then put the charm pic on top of the bottom left part of the screen
Because the animation is the same of pick up
Only the text below is changed
i thought like putting a pickup directly where one lands after creating a new save
Yeah
Yeah, you can use itemchanger/plandoplando to put item pickups anywhere
oh damn, didn't know that
@wet cloud the next time you're online, try this version, the loading should be fixed (from my testing, saved+reloaded the same save 3 times consecutively)
