i wanna replay all of hollow knight 112% again are there any fun mods that dont change the game too much?
No, check the first pinned messages in #archived-modding-help
You can try cosmetic things like Custom Knight
yeah was thinking of that one too
super cool
i had to re-stroke the black lines but i think this is pretty usable now
obviously looks better with default horn shape

okay this is super adorable
Is this using the website?
i mean rn i'm making the hair/ hat on a separate layer. then its just a matter of rendering it on the website
also maybe you missed this #archived-modding-help message
oh yeah had missed it, what you've written should work, it just would require the person to set execute permission as well
How would they do that?
i only know the chmod way
Would that be more effort than just finding the file and deleting it
i mean if you ask them to paste the command directly in terminal it would be less effort than finding the file
no worries
it is done.
Washing machine!!!!!
should they be washing machine after they start attacking too ?
oh i didnt mean animating them
just like replace all poses with the same image lol
except the rotating ones
oh lol
but the nail needs to stay
just have some washing machines attack you with a nail
pretty sure voidheart does this in general
Welp I'm sorry @nimble lichen but I had to add this to my notes on you
lol what?

its a bit rough but i don't think i can do better than this in the art department lol
Amazing
oh thats cool!!!
is there a way to see what your seed is when youre in game in item rando?
also i just tried this and its fucking amazing
It's in the save file in the either tracker or spoiler log I don't remember which
ah thank you i found it
Particles coming from the shade
Np
do you have to downpatch to use custom knight now?
Yes
I wonder if anyone likes the idea of troubleshoot page for modding
For common issues
Is this in 1.5?
no, it's 1432 for now
but i dont use hooks or savesettings so maybe it'll work in 1.5 too
if i just recompile it
Only 1 way to find out
@nimble lichen you are the one maintaining the 1.5 custom knight right? You might want to update the sprite sheet for the hollow knight. IDK why but it has been updated
I am, did ck support skinning thk ?
Oh. No. Nevermind
In my brain ck supported enemies
But that is Fyremoth
Time to add support for asset bundles and add all enemies
More fyremoth leaks
Lol I was thinking to add support for more enemies, but ck+ seems to be covering it so I think I'll keep ck simpler to use
Time to add enemy buffs and spell stat changes 
Is already a known fact
I though ck+ just has support for adding custom frame sizes
The real question is when dll/src is getting leaked
Nope, apparently it allows you to replace any GO's sprite in the current scene
That's super cool
When I get fed up with some stupid issue and decided to just release the mod definitely hasn’t almost happened several times
We are also considering making it open source on release
Nah that's when it's gonna get released
I wanna know when it's gonna get leaked
That would be nice !
Not making it open source doesn't make sense cuz dnspy/ilspy exist
Well, the test server does now consist of 38 people. They are probably just waiting for us to release a 1.5 build
Yeah
But ILspy can’t extract embedded resources. Although there are probably programs that can
Dnspy can
Cool. Didn’t know that
Sad mac noises
Wine
Open Source Software for running Windows applications on other operating systems.
Check if Wine works with it
Have some Wine 
I haven't tried wine on Mac so far but last I tried it on Ubuntu it was kindof a pain
don't mind me asking, but why is that, compared to the other sprites, so low res?
I just took the PNG from the emoji
i couldnt find the actual image
but with this I'll have to recolor it myself 
um just layer the colored one in another layer and select blend mode color ?
here're some more, fyremoth with involve fire
Omg yes
I like it
I need it as a custom knight
Yus
He made a masterpiece
if its so easy maybe you could do it for me 
sure, ping me your sprite
(just getting the colored one)
Thanks
v2
it looks a bit sharper
Thank you for making the second best mod of all time
(after the original transtrans)
fwiw it changes both tiktiks and tram pass
oh hell yeah
Is this 1.4 or 1.5?
1.5
How do I inv drop in 1.4.3.2 Cus I’m doing impossible mod and I need to do it and btw I’m on keyboard
Do I need to downpatch
use QoL
Umm is it a mod on modinstaller or do I need to manually download
Ok thx
what changed? did sprites just get moved around?
How chaotic is chaos mode?
has anyone made an owo knight custom skin because otherwise im making it
I can’t get the modinstaller to load properly
I have uninstalled and reinstalled everything even hk, but it keeps telling me something about an interruption
And custom knight never works
u on 1.5?
modinstaller not working on latest steam patch?
Go to modding help and check the pins
i want an update on the modinstaller
Me too
every one too
Is there a mod that adds boss health bars?
Enemy hp bar mod
Where can I find that?
Mod installer
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages. 
Thanks
I’m not at my computer right now, so I can’t take an image of the sprite sheet, but I’m working on a custom skin for the first time.
Nice
What is the mod that shows what items you've got at the bottom in this video :
We're trying out Hollow Knight's item randomizer, with its new Cursed settings: you now have to find directional nail slashes, dash directions, and wallcling directions! On top of that, we're playing using Hell Mod's double damage, and on Steel Soul. It's going to be fun! Can we beat the game with these settings??
Additional Rules:
(1) No using...
Player Data Tracker
It's mainly for streaming though - it doesn't show it in-game, usually used as an obs overlay.
this looks kinda demented ngl
i want this skin xD
yee i just started making it so itll be a while
how do i get the new version of modinstaller ?
1.5 modinstaller isnt public yet i think
we cant use mods then ;-;
nah i'll just wait
it might be a while because youll also have to wait for mod developers to update their mods individually
downpatch takes 2 seconds
i'll see
i love this
i only have one request, please make the expressions on another layer if you can
ill have to change up my process for how i make the sprites though aa
i could probably separate them from the main sprite sheet pretty easily at the end probably
or if u make them a sprite at a time use a distinct color to allow to select them by color after packing using sprite packer
hey guys im not sure if this helps but i went back to v1.4.3.2 and used the infinite notches mod. then i updated later with a character equipped with all the charms except like 3 i think and they stayed equipped.
PS thanks for all the hard working on modding
If you never unequipped them, then why would they change?
i mean i have them all and im not over loaded XD
Over charm is a state the game gives you at a specific point. You opened your save file with those charms and never triggered that event
I believe inf notches changes the save data to have 2000 notches, so if you dont start a new save you keep those
nice 😄
I’m starting all charms one notch, gun mod, room rando play through which is gong to be beautiful
Going
Gun mod?
hollow pint
Oo
^what happens to my booze
this face is gonna haunt me at night
are you making this cause i need it
I have to freak my friend out on my next stream
yeah im in the middle of making it
you are a godsend
ill try and remember to @ you when its done
hello everyone, someone hear about this creator? i looking for this skins
the creator is : LichOne#5951
It isn't a skin just an oc/concept art
I know, but he mentions that he plans to make the skins of this concept, but he does not mention anything else, he came with these advances
yeah, the new patch breaks mods
oh
i think a tutorial to downpatch is like.. in the pins of #archived-modding-help
Shit, I always forget about the pins
well, I guess I'll just wait till the api updates to 1.5, then re download it.
You can just opt into the 1.4.3.2 beta. It's right there on steam, no complicated manips required.
A customknight skin tease
Nice
What does test of teamwork do?
I believe it adds more to The white palace? More specifically a platforming section?
Yeah but the readme says that it starts by talking to "someone familiar in and around dirtmouth"
Start by going to the black egg after getting voidheart
When you're so smol, that you can just chill next to the spikes
Is that aksu?
Pretty sure it was later used in another skin, but a full aksu skin was never made
I think it's called aksu
Any of the pinned challenges, yes
There are currently two skins
hey can we use mods without steam?
you can use mods with steam or gog
@gritty storm return question: did you pirate the game?
I love how you can deduct if people pirated the game by what they ask
- no pirating
- only steam or GoG
Just buy it and show TC some love

sure WHEN I GROW UP AND GET A JOB
i still cant buy anything cuz my parents dont ever spend money on games
D:
Don't you have to be 16 to use Discord?
you dont need to be an adult to get a job though
pretty sure you can get a job at 14
Depends on the country
wait what
i thought it was 13
13 iirc
unless if they changed their TOS
Booo
Bloody kids
honestly i agree that internet should be restricted to 16 and up
im 13. 4 more months...
oh damn you arent even 13 yet 
As someone who has been programming and exploiting the internet since the age of 7: I don’t agree
You know they would have to ban you to valige with the TOS right?
same but also at the same time i dont think my life would have been this ruined if i joined internet later
Now you stated your age
True
i think kids of any age can be on the internet but 16+ to make an account
? why
the terms of service stated that you can only be 13 and up to join discord and every server must be compliant with this rule and ban kids under 13 otherwise discord has the right to take down a server
^
Ah. I’m sorry. I misunderstood
oh ok lol
oh
I figured you were 13 in 4 months


Not sure where to put this as there doesn't seem to ba a bug-report channel. I encountered a fun(?) little bug with the benchwarp mod. If you stand on a conveyor belt in crystal peak while benchwarping, the character will just gracefully slide sideways while sitting on the bench.
currently sliding through dirthmouth
nvm still sliding after standing up 
Apparently the bench animation can cause you to slide through solid walls and out of bounds
known issue
Is there a list of known issues where I can look up if a bug is already known or not?
afaik not
So, while ago I saw mod where it makes the Knight very small. Where I can download it?
Oh, didn't notice lol
oh thats cool!!
Thank you
I wasn't sure if anyone would be interested in seeing it haha
It's my first customknight skin that isn't just concept. I originally wanted to make a grub knight but I was having trouble animating the grub body within the knights sprite restrictions.
thanks! Yeah I know most people find flukes disgusting, I loooove the way
they are animated
It looks super cool
It looks like the skin is smaller then the original knight. This would be a perfect fit for CK+
smolknight - ck+ compatibility
@versed remnant I based the size off of the knights hitbox
@swift bison add this
It might just be me, but it looks smaller
the knights hitbox with default skin ranges in idle up to just above the eyes
ah
Oh I should have said that better. It is smaller, the hit box for the knight does not include his "horns"
haha definitely
is there a way to change knight's attack speed without using mods
quick slash
use wayward compass
of course wayward compass works for everything
its like the number 42 of hollow knight
no but seriously, is there a way?
probably
there aren't any known glitches that change base attack time
Hollow knight is a glitchy game and has so many glitches in it 😠👎
bug lol
So, haven't opened the game in a while and know the modinstaller is asking for the right version. Where to look at? Thanks!
its a buggy bug world (sic)
Not working with the current version. Do a downgrade to 1.4.3.2.
Thanks, will do.

I’ll do it if you rip the knight sprite collection in CustomKnight + format, then make the spritesheet smaller, then make the ripped data work for the size difference, then add all the animations in CustomKnight + format.
what is the customknight+ format
single elimination
yea, i got 3rd place
lmao
ootl
does anyone have a harder boss than any radiance?
any radiance 2.0?
absolute radiance, a new boss i made
i have another custom enemy, primal aspids
Is there a 1.5 modding api or do I need to downpatch to 1432
you need to downpatch
my custom enemy beats you all, tiktik
What if there's is a buffed tiktik?
Your are a genius.
I would be much better.
Even if my original idea is to make him big and ALOT stronger.
Exaltion mod
It upgrades quickslash and changes it so there's no cap on swing speed
dumb question
But is it possible to manually make a customknight skin by editing every single sprite in a copy of the default skin?
yes
but i take it there's easier ways to do it?
especially when it comes to editing the character's head or charms?
charms have to be edited by their files copied from the default skin, as those are already each in their own file, but for the knight, there is a great tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFIudBIWI1Y&t=2425s
My (arguably too) in-depth tutorial on how to create a Custom Knight skin. Includes: downloading and installing Hollow Knight's ModInstaller and Custom Knight mod, using SpritePacker, using FireAlpaca/art tips, and uploading and properly saving your sprite, plus a much simpler method. Please let me know in the comments if you have any questions!...
if u only want to mess with colors / mix and match effects you can check out the skin remixer. otherwise making the sprites from scratch is the only option rn
do you have a link to Skin Remixer?
what charms do they use in that vid tho
all
right they don't even show the build smh
anyone have have any tips about changing the eye image on the skin remixer?
i mean just put an image 34 x 44 or higher in the same ratio and you should be good to go
Can we get this pinned, btw?
It seems like a tool to help automate custom skins is worth pinning.
yep i'm cool with it
might help get interested contributors once the tagging tool is complete
does anyone have mods that change the sprites of various enemies?
i had no idea this even existed tbh
does anyone have the pure vessel skin
Pins
i would like this hypothetical list too if possible
@dry snow @dusk crescent
The pinned ReadMe doc in #archived-modding-help has some mods linked in it that aren't on the installer.
This is why I was asking for the hat on another layer, I haven't added it in yet tho
Hi guys... I can't install the mod installer, I got this message this installer requires the most recent stable version... (windows 10, steam installation of hollow knight)
- #archived-modding-help
- type
?pinsin chat there
Yoo that’s sick
Hey! I'm getting a failed to load error for this?
What dependencies does it require?
you have 1.5?
yeah 😔
this should be the 1.5 api btw https://github.com/HollowKnight-Modding/HollowKnight.Modding/suites/3038230745/artifacts/68976638
not 100% sure if it works, and there may be bugs
alot of them
actually i know for sure there will be bugs
If you want I can make it to work with 1.4
yes thatd be great!
1.4 Version
hell yeah thanks!!
tranpass
Is there a mod thay reduces the graphic on collesseum of fool
Im lagging so hard when doing the collesseum
download inferno king grimm then go in the settings in main menu
also download weavercore
ah thank
what do i do
oh wait
there should be a hard mode you enable
In what capacity? Technically any mods are cheating
well custom knight isnt...kinda and im using it on a steel soul run
i can't find it
It's entirely up to you, pal
aaa
It makes the game easier, but yaknow
i dont wanna cheat on this run
make sure u got weavercore on is all i can say ¯_(ツ)_/¯
found it
kk ill take it off
nvm
You can just click disable in the mod installer
But yes you need to do that with the game closed
what are the best ods that add content? and where can i find them

so there are no mods that add areas? i was just wondering
test of teamwork
i knew some were in devlopement but not that some were out
Like i knew the sanctuary (not sure what others
an old isma attack was giving problem to the programmers and needed overall balancing, so I decided to remake it
test of teamwork
total noob question but how do i enable the map to see where all the checks are in the randomizer>
?
Rando map mod?
The custom rooms or custom rooms and custom pantheon
Because I didn’t add the right version of frogcore to the installer and need to finish making a large update to uuwuu before I can upload a fixed ver
i don't have access to the link
and i realse that will lead to the abyss
How to install pantheon of Nightmares(p6):
Drive: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1kkCe-VquNkVc9AXl3P-7PkC3F8WSknQO?usp=sharing
- First install all the mod dlls, these go into your mod folder, these versions are specific to work in pantheons
- Download all the jsons in the decoration master folder and do the decoration master installation for them, fireb0rn hs a video on this already.
- Boot up the game with the custom pantheon mod(should be in the drive) and then close it. This is to make the json files in your save folder.
4.Copy the the stuff from the custom pantheon json in the drive and put it in the one in your saves folder
is that vector art
i've been reminded of pale court again
(i hope, at one point you can interact with them)
(like instead of combat)
(just like how you do that with Ogrim)
inferno king doesn't work
Probably need weaver core idk
i got weaver core
Did you install them all from that drive? IIRC some of the mods on their were slightly tweaked for that Pantheon, so the versions from the drive may be different than the ones from Mod Installer
yeah
i even reinstalled the mods
ah hold on
looks good!
thanks! I kinda just drew over stuff in Gimp but I feel like If I spend enough time on this I can make a skin that
well doesn't look awful
main sheet of owo knight done just gotta do extras now
amazing

what would u guys say is the most fun mod
The mod installer
why is glowing womb sans
so you guys know about infinite Grimm right? Is there one for infinite Soul Master or Soul Tyrant? Preferrably just the first phase? I love fighting against him and just dashing all over the place
this is too small an arena for traitor lord + sisters of battle
i cant get any mods, at all i cant get the mod installer
Could you provide more info about your problem in #archived-modding-help
is this an "on shrooms" skin or is fun, bright colors
no, but shouldnt be hard to make
you could probably make it yourself in a week or two if you take a couple looks at infinite grimm's code
Do we need to see the Knight wearing a cowboy hat
Because I think we need to see the knight make their way through hallownest
wearing a cowboy hat
I will use my weekend to give the people what they want
When you do this I would super appreciate it if the hat is on another layer
So that we can add it to the skin remixer and have the option to add the hat on any skins
Dandy do you have a wireframe-like layer of the cloak anywhere for me?
There's a gimp file in one of the channels pins that has the cloak preselected.
And I've got a png that's got black where the cloak should be.
I will always say this to anyone adding props to the knight 🤭
is there a multiplayer mod?
afaik no
fireborn plays multiplayer ?
then that answers your question ?
Do gimp files convert easily to png without gimp?
i mean you could use gimp to export the png
Yeah but without gimp?
idk
gimp is free though
Yeah ik
Im pretty sure I have it, too
I just remember that it's a headache to open
Do no other editors know how to use the file type?
krita might
does anyone have the GOdump for the death shade? its not generating the atlas folder for me for some reason
thanks!
terrible amazing mod idea : flappy knight - infinite monarch wings but all walls/floor damage the knight.
im likin' that one
Are there any working mods similar to the ''Traditional Mapping'' mod? It works but if you get hit you can't open any menus :/
what does it do
It basically makes the map system more like Symphony of the Night or Bloodstained, the map fills in automatically as you go there. No need to buy any maps or rest at a bench for it to update
Its my third attempt at getting into the game and I finally get why people like it, but the map system just frustrates me so much
@nimble lichen its messy but is that okay?
It should work I think, I'll check back once I get back to my laptop
just overlayed in krita it looks glorious
PFFT HELL YEAH
This is beautiful
It should fit any basic skin easily, right?
No remixer needed
Just grab and paste on the skin in an editor
yep, any skin that keeps head positions correctly
I'd think it's more important for horns first though
Yeah but I assumed that's just bad positioning
will be using a blend mode most likely
huh howd that happen
knight head positions might be slightly different in both the skins
You either moved something accidentally, or the skin has the sprite changed a bit
the knight just lifting up his owo glasses for a better look
Looks like a "wtf is this shit in front of me"
lol
blending mode allows to keep the collar
thank you @dusk crescent 
this weekend i'm going to implement this properly and add it in to the remixer
but the results look super adorable !
ohh that look cool!! and np!
does qol stop the shade from attacking?
i only just realised because i need to test how stuff looks in game
hows that?
amazing
yes
it may have been a bad idea to equip allmost every charm
Mostly just making stuff have bright, more vibrant colors. I wanna re-color grimmchild to look like a black dragon (see Toothless from the How to Train your Dragon seires) and make all the lifeblood charms into "infection" charms
Currently doing our own CustomKnight ^^ it might take a while but yeah :)
good luck!
Thank you !
Hey, i’m pretty new to hollow knight. Finishing first playthrough of 60 hours rn.
Anyways got interested about skins, so i was wondering is it really hard to make my own custom skin?
depends on what you want to do, if you want to just change the colour you can use skin remixer but if you want to draw things over the sprites youll need to learn how to use sprite packer, and making a skin like that can take a really long time
Oh dang, well probably don’t wanna do that then. Thanks for answering
idea for an overly detailed customknight skin
The Source Engine Knight
Gordon Freeman Knight, crowbar instead of a nail, Weavers are headcrabs and his shade is missing textures
Sounds cool haha
the knight's shade and shadespells look like this
I’ve also considered an option to like maybe pay someone to make a skin for me. Don’t really wanna use the public ones cause i’d prefer unique one
So idk if people are up for that, since im new to the community. But i’m guessing that’s an option probably?
Oh nicee
Mostly just changing everything to fun bright colors
Looks cool af tho, didn’t expect such small change to make such a big difference lol
good job
ye
Im surprised you didn't make the joke
What joke 😂
look at glowing womb
Ooh ye that’d be cool
ill be up for that!
Glad to hear that hahah
ive only got one skin made right now though so i dont have much of a portfolio
but uh it might be expensive because it does take a lot of work
depending on what you want of course
It’s fine, i’m still not 100% sure what i wanna do. But i’ll consider different options and will make sure to dm you then
And yee makes sense
What do u consider ”expensive” btw
not really my place to guess but
probably something like the rick knight skin by TWP team that has custom stuff for everything
Oh ye how much would a similar one (with custom everything) cost approximately? Like do u have any idea
about $100,,,
Well not too bad at least haha
Gotta say this seems to be a really awesome community, didn’t expect people to answer to a random beginner this thoroughly. Much appreciated!
np! ive only started talking here recently myself
The hollowknight community is always cool
That’s great!
Does anyone know if theres a mod that reskins bosses?
What’s the difference between room randomizer and connected-room randomizer?
im not sure if there is any. check the read more on the mod
My computer doesn’t let me open files, that’s why I’m asking
do you use the mod installer?
Yeah
yo, that's actually a really cool idea
In how long do you think you'll have it finished?
Eyy, cool
Good luck with them
Will you make a full skin or just a charm set and whatever comes with them? (minions, etc)
go to #archived-modding-help and type ?pins there
I installed a skin mod and noticed the intermediary phases until a full soul meter arent changed
and in the HUD file there is an image only for the full soul meter. Is that just something that cant be changed with mods?
There is only a full orb image, no half filled ones
I know, I just wondered if it can be changed at all, and if it can I would do this myself. But I dont see the file that determines the half filled stages
Actually, the shape of the eyes can be changed
But the half-filled orb can't be changed through customknight to have, lets say, the troupe mask lines
it can be done through mods in general, but no one bothered to do it yet
if you want you can do it yourself
I don't know how to mod 
ok where do i download that it look amazing
its not done yet, i should have it out by today or tomorrow
man i'll definitely get it when you'll have it done! it looks great
are you going to leave it as it is, or are you going to do more? (health bar and soul gauge for example?)
not saying you should because it already looks great
ive done the soul bar and i would do the health masks but the face would be so small and so squished that itd be hard to tell that its there and just wouldnt look good so i left them
plus that many owos on the screen might be overkill lmao
oh i see
ok so i was thinking
like
this
but
you're right it's way too small
yee
pffft
i was also gonna add an owo to grimmchild but his eyes are so damn big theres no space on his face
pins of #archived-modding-help
what's the name of the AK mod? Can't find it in mod installer

I am so happy
Time to combine it with the UWUspeak mod and utterly obliterate my friend
@weak plinth could you add this to the drive too?
hi, is there a mod that can change how many masks you have? if there is can you please send it?
sorry wrong channel
has anyone made a supreme drip skin, and if not, how hard is it to do so
Sorry to ask, but theoretically how would I replace those half-filled orb textures? Is there a guide somewhere?
the eyes for the half-filled orb are on the side of the spritesheet
What's the GlassSoul Mod?
over here
for some reason godump doesn't dump this (probably a fault of the game itself and not godump), so you'll have to manually edit it on the spritesheet
you die in one hit, i think mask shards upgrade nail damage
unless you meant to ask where's the glass soul mod, in which case i think it's pinned in #archived-modding-help
thx
could you send the sheet of it edited on if you have it?
oh
i meant like, you have to edit the spritesheet
since you can't use godump to grab the sprite, edit it, then pack it using spritepacker
PlayerDataDump = PlayerDataTracker ?
ohh i see i misunderstood, i thought the eyes werent on the godump spritesheet but they are
they just arent dumped individually
yep
aw man the border around is super tight so you dont get a lot of freedom to draw
Player data dump dumps the data that player data tracker uses, if that's what you're asking
is room rando cpu intensive? i want to use the mod but I don't want to kill my laptop
Rando in general can be
The more you randomise the worse it gets, and room Rando is randoing a lot
does anyone know of a mod that automatically unlocks all pantheons. I did pantheons 1-4 w/ all bindings (with hacks cuz i suck) and have voidheart thing on yet it still wont let me do it
you could download a 100% save file
true
him babby
:shdebob:
i need update on the modinstaller
Do you mean "my mod installer is saying I need to update my game"?
no i mean the modinstaller don't work whith new patch, and i don't wanna downpatch the game
"downpatch" is not really the case, if on windows and using steam
see the latest pin in #archived-modding-help
and if you ask "is it up-to-date yet?", no
we dont know when it will be
i alredy seen the pins, but i wanna wait for it to be updated instead of needing to do things, im lazy lol
@winter blade then… why did you send this here? It’s not like this will make it go faster
I more want to edit the face of the half filled orb to have the lines
And not the eyes
Hm, i wonder if I can add the lines around eyes? Would it show up on the main body of the half filled orb?
Also, would extending the borders of the image break the textures? Like if i just extend it to the right?
Depending on how you did it. If you did it in a separate PNG file then imported it, it would just cut it off. If you put it on the sheet it would cut off where the game tells it to, and part of your image might display on a different Sprite
@versed remnant idk, sorry
Custom Knight skins not working are often due to improper installations
- folder(s) inside /CustomKnight/<skin>/..
- a zip inside /CustomKnight (which might have folders inside it)
can anyone who frequents #archived-modding-help tell me if there are more such scenarios ?
?
you mean if there are many people with incorrect skin paths?
cus ye
mostly an extra folder that breaks it
not many people who forget to unzip it
what is the cheat sheet mod? want to replay some parts of the game without having to do all from zero (new pc, no saves)
yeah i meant if there's any more common scenarios that happen, i could try to fix them automatically.
for example, i was thinking to just give a "fix my skins" button in settings to just fix the directory structure for people automatically.
if someone uses winrar, you can extract it to a folder with the name of the zip, while it is already in a seperate folder
well there are also skins that have a seperate version for some png's in a seperate folder, so make sure that doesn't get broken
do you have an example of such a skin ?
you mean how it has https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/13NPJwG7qbihPMGAkEKnU4YVmnkKy6rf1
HUD.png & HUD2.png or 2 VoidSpells.png?
would that break ?
ye thats the one i meant
it would break as it could see an extra folder for incorrect path
i don't plan on looking in the directories inside, rather fix the structure by moving files around if no pngs are found in a directory so this case should be okay
thanks! just in case you come across a new case that we could automatically fix do let me know !
:+1:
you assume people will look for a "fix skin" when skins arent working
a button, is easy to be seen
you assumed people would look for an FAQ in a readme doc 
i hope it will at-least save the multiple "screenshot your folder" that people need to do
eh sometimes saying "like the default folder" works
and just saying "customknight>skinname>png's" also works most of the time
was going to just add it here
it's going to be in 1.5 CK
noice
1.5 tech 
probably want to leave a space between the horizontal option "mode" and the text below
you can do that probs by making a empty string content
also ck works in cutscenes too?
any plans to add the shade customization to ck?
or a AddStaticPanel i guess?
it's already supported in 1.2.4c
cutscenes is the wrong word i guess i meant like the "webbed" / hornet carrying the knight kind of events
ngl just dont mention cutscenes
oh 
recently added
in case you want to try it https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1n5fVgiDW1loMehrUO4PzEKRalV3os2f0?usp=sharing just add the Shade.png & ShadeOrb.png in your skin's folder
yeah gonna call them events lol
white mode users be like
oh sweet
1.5 ck release when
its finished like
style
I have an idea for what flukeknight's shade will look like
once the api releases basically
lol
Semi-works. Added little lines to the eyes:
But they are cut off in-game
Is there any way to extend the area that registers the eyes?
dang so close
It isn't intersecting with any other assets so it should be safe to extend the area that the eyes register
by waiting for ck+
whats that
whenever redfrog finishes it
you'll see...
eventually
hopefully
well you have little lines
a trick might be to reduce the eye size to increase the line to eye ratio not sure how it would look tho
It would probably look funky when it changes from half filled orb to fully filled
make the eyes on the filled orb the same?
Could always edit the full version too
yep
Or it could look like they're opening their eyes when the orb fills up
I think that could be cool
or you could just delete the eyes all together and then have a blank orb until it's full 
you could try editing them onto this? idk if ck allows you to edit this though
all the supported spritesheets are in the default folder
although, ig i dont rly knwo how ck works..
it would make sense to me that it just replaces the atlas with the same name but idk
that would make it really flexible
I've seen people edit the colours of these, I'm pretty sure
there's boundaries on each of the sprites
if you try to draw outside of the boundary it'll just cut it off
Yeah, sayo is asking if there's a way to extend that
i'm not sure if this would work
i think i remember seeing somewhere that it just moves up or down depending on how much soul you have, so the eyes would also move up or down
Oh yeah, that's a thing
heck
That just exists behind the top layer with the eyes on
Thats works, apparently
What exactly are you showing here?
top left
Oh, you made the eyes smaller
I thought you were saying you'd figured out some way to extend the lines
that still looks cool though
ah no, I don't know nearly enough about HK modding to come up with that in in 10 minutes 
I'd love to take a look at that, TBH
at someone coming up with a way to extend the lines?
At... Me coming up with a way to do it
Sorry, little slow today
I havent seen that, you remember where?
I do not but if I come across it again I'll post it here
what color would an undead fluke be 
green? though it might look too much like a grub
blue / purple
oooo yeah
like the blood has stopped flowing
it ended up looking very ghosty in game because of how the shade moves haha
🇨
I don't want to c

On a serious note you could add a var in global setting file that changes to true if an option is changed in the menu. If it's not true, show the text in pause menu that the menu location has changed
yep that's the plan, also an okay button here to manually acknowledge it and make it go away
Also there should be a horizontal option to set default skin
default skin as in ?
Like when you load the game
When you load the game, it uses your most recently used skin already
yep
For the half-filled, you'll need some more complex coding than normal customknight-type
You should ask in #archived-modding-development about it after reading the basic modding guides, they'll point you over to the types of things you'll wanna read and mess with
It should be UI stuff
I think
sorry about asking but any updates on mods?
Looks awesome, but wrong channel, I think
What kind of updates do you want?
i'm talking about when mods for the newest update will be ready,
Not yet
that happens to me too
first pin in #archived-modding-help
I just downloaded the randomizer tracker for randomizer 3, how to I put it in
can someone dm me good skin mods plz
any radiance is a good skin mod
hunt please
thanks
i got an idea to make a custom skin of the knight from the synthsong au if there already isnt one
i probably wont start on it for a while though cuz im kinda burnt out and will crack if i even look at sprite packer rn
are there any prerequisites to starting test of teamwork
because uh this is all i see
talk to hornet in front of the black egg
ohh right ok thanks
Why does the Windows version of ModInstaller 2 not have a Logo? While the Mac version has one!
It does
?
I don't have any icons :/ @versed remnant
Anyone know any good challenge mods?
What is decoration master and ToT?
decorationmaster is the one where everyone stuff gameplay elements into rooms to make them harder
Test of Teamwork is a platforming section
Do you know if any of these would work with multiplayer mod?
Please show me
I've also seen it with a logo but mine doesn't
not sure if this fits here but does anyone here play on macOS with a controller and if so what controller do you use? I have a standard Dualshock 4 controller and it doesn't work with the modding API 😞
I'm...fairly sure that the Mac modinstaller does not install the Windows modding api
As far as I am aware, it does install the windows version
why on earth
I think it just wasn't updated, but there's atleast a compiled binary you can just copy over
It works overall, but the controller bug seems to happen on Macs with windows mapi
I believe this is planned to be fixed with 1.5 mapi/installer
https://github.com/ricardosouzag/ModInstaller/issues/93
I can't find any of the mod files 
Where are you looking
In the Hollow Knight app bundle and also in ~/Library/Application Support
Inside your managed directory , one level above the Mods directory is where you need to copy the DLL file
Ah, it's the one inside Resources
~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/hollow_knight.app/Contents/Resources/Data/Managed/ should be it
there is a top level managed directory but it is empty
yep, for some reason mac has 2 managed directories 
It's a standalone install so I spent a lot of time looking in application support before I remembered that duh the app bundle is in my games folder
controller works now 
I'm pretty sure that the icon just doesn't work on Windows.
If it significantly bothers you, then you can make a shortcut to it, then give that shortcut an icon.
The icon it should have (which you can see in the title bar when it's open), is:

invasion
i know im probably the 625th person to ask this, but any progress on mod installer update?
When there is it will be in the pinned messages of modding help
alright, thanks
does anyone know how to use more saves mod?
just says page 1/2 and idk how to go to the second page
[ and ]
sfgrenade, I just got a report in the Fyremoth dev server. And wanted to know if this has been in the 1.5 version of SFCore. This guys has 2 simple keys. The title and text is for the keys, but the icon is the one of the flower https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/837040331194236979/858763407850340372/20210627193727_1.jpg?width=1202&height=676
wanted to know if this has been in the 1.5 version of SFCore
if you mean the bug, probably, as i've never had that happen myself, so i think it should still be in there
but i can try to recreate it tomorrow afternoon
ok
anyone know where fury nail arts are stored in customknight?
i can’t find them on the knight spritesheet
With custom knight and rando 3 my game crashes when entering Idelda's shop
I believe they're just on Knight.png
yeah its in knight.png
the normal fury nail slashes are on there but i dont think the fury nail arts are
my weaverlings are supposed to kill the ghosts while i heal in lost kin but they arent doing their jobbbbbbb
Equip dung cloud
i dont have it
dung defender gave me 1 geo
hell, watch lost kin give me 1 geo as well lmaoo
Cursed mode go brr
yeah, this
fury nail arts aren't on knight
that's just lost kin in general
angel knight 1.1 comiiing
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1hEARisKgdoburUz-rx0VRr4NSYunw0QT?usp=sharing Angel knight update is here
this version is much cooler and poggers
yooooo!!!!! this is cool!!!
modding for this game was easier than any other game I've tried in recent years
did some experimenting, i think the game just recolors the regular nail art
i removed the nail art from the knight spritesheet and the fury nail art didn't appear either
