it needs some cleanup but i think it is doable

#

it works pretty well with gk too

okay this is super adorable

random elk
#

Is this using the website?

nimble lichen
#

i mean rn i'm making the hair/ hat on a separate layer. then its just a matter of rendering it on the website

random elk
nimble lichen
#

oh yeah had missed it, what you've written should work, it just would require the person to set execute permission as well

random elk
#

How would they do that?

nimble lichen
#

i only know the chmod way

random elk
#

Would that be more effort than just finding the file and deleting it

nimble lichen
#

i mean if you ask them to paste the command directly in terminal it would be less effort than finding the file

random elk
#

Nice idea

#

Thanks

nimble lichen
#

no worries

nimble lichen
#

should they be washing machine after they start attacking too ?

late lodge
#

yes

#

but you dont have to as making alot of animations is pain ;-;

nimble lichen
#

oh i didnt mean animating them

#

just like replace all poses with the same image lol

#

except the rotating ones

late lodge
#

oh lol

#

but the nail needs to stay

#

just have some washing machines attack you with a nail

nimble lichen
#

yeah that's what i was thinking

#

lemme try it

#

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?

I wonder if anyone likes the idea of troubleshoot page for modding

For common issues

random elk
nimble lichen
#

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

random elk
#

Only 1 way to find out

versed remnant
#

@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

nimble lichen
versed remnant
#

Oh. No. Nevermind

#

In my brain ck supported enemies

#

But that is Fyremoth

#

Time to add support for asset bundles and add all enemies

random elk
nimble lichen
#

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

That's super cool

versed remnant
#

We are also considering making it open source on release

random elk
#

I wanna know when it's gonna get leaked

nimble lichen
random elk
#

Not making it open source doesn't make sense cuz dnspy/ilspy exist

versed remnant
#

Well, the test server does now consist of 38 people. They are probably just waiting for us to release a 1.5 build

versed remnant
#

But ILspy can’t extract embedded resources. Although there are probably programs that can

random elk
#

Dnspy can

versed remnant
#

Cool. Didn’t know that

Check if Wine works with it

I haven't tried wine on Mac so far but last I tried it on Ubuntu it was kindof a pain

random elk
hexed nimbus

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

but with this I'll have to recolor it myself zoteanger

nimble lichen

um just layer the colored one in another layer and select blend mode color ?

I wanna look at the code

how do i get the new version of modinstaller ?

dusk crescent
#

1.5 modinstaller isnt public yet i think

modern flint
#

we cant use mods then ;-;

dusk crescent
#

you can downpatch

modern flint
#

nah i'll just wait

dusk crescent
#

it might be a while because youll also have to wait for mod developers to update their mods individually

#

downpatch takes 2 seconds

modern flint
#

i'll see

nimble lichen
#

i only have one request, please make the expressions on another layer if you can

dusk crescent
#

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

nimble lichen
#

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

thin wagon
#

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

vagrant orbit
#

If you never unequipped them, then why would they change?

thin wagon
#

i mean i have them all and im not over loaded XD

silver garden
#

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

late lodge
#

I believe inf notches changes the save data to have 2000 notches, so if you dont start a new save you keep those

@gritty storm return question: did you pirate the game?

then guess its not possible

I love how you can deduct if people pirated the game by what they ask

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

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 quirrelmonocle

#

Apparently the bench animation can cause you to slide through solid walls and out of bounds

Is there a list of known issues where I can look up if a bug is already known or not?

Thank you grubomg 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.

flukeknight is disgusting in concept but kinda cute in practice flukehug

versed remnant
# brazen river

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

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.

how about make it breathe infection + buff HP

Your are a genius.

I would be much better.

lyric fox
#

dumb question

But is it possible to manually make a customknight skin by editing every single sprite in a copy of the default skin?

hexed nimbus
#

yes

lyric fox
#

but i take it there's easier ways to do it?

#

especially when it comes to editing the character's head or charms?

hexed nimbus
#

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!...

How to install pantheon of Nightmares(p6):
Drive: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1kkCe-VquNkVc9AXl3P-7PkC3F8WSknQO?usp=sharing

  1. First install all the mod dlls, these go into your mod folder, these versions are specific to work in pantheons
  2. Download all the jsons in the decoration master folder and do the decoration master installation for them, fireb0rn hs a video on this already.
  3. 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

#

Are there any working mods similar to the ''Traditional Mapping'' mod? It works but if you get hit you can't open any menus :/

late lodge
#

what does it do

manic ether
#

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

dusk crescent
#

@nimble lichen its messy but is that okay?

nimble lichen
#

It should work I think, I'll check back once I get back to my laptop

nimble lichen
#

just overlayed in krita it looks glorious

dusk crescent
#

PFFT HELL YEAH

nocturne sky
#

This is beautiful

#

It should fit any basic skin easily, right?

#

No remixer needed

#

Just grab and paste on the skin in an editor

nimble lichen
#

yep, any skin that keeps head positions correctly

nocturne sky
#

Fantastic

#

A shame this happens

#

You gonna add a fix for that at some point?

thank you @dusk crescent grublove

#

this weekend i'm going to implement this properly and add it in to the remixer

#

but the results look super adorable !

dusk crescent
#

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

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?

dusk crescent
#

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

safe oasis
#

Oh dang, well probably don’t wanna do that then. Thanks for answering

lyric fox
#

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

safe oasis
#

Sounds cool haha

lyric fox
#

the knight's shade and shadespells look like this

safe oasis
#

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?

lyric fox
#

I mean maybe

#

I've been (trying to) manually edit skins in Gimp, staring with charms

safe oasis
#

Oh nicee

lyric fox
#

Mostly just changing everything to fun bright colors

safe oasis
#

Looks cool af tho, didn’t expect such small change to make such a big difference lol

#

good job

lyric fox
#

ye

Im surprised you didn't make the joke

safe oasis
#

What joke 😂

lyric fox
#

look at glowing womb

safe oasis
#

Oh lmao

#

Anyways my favorite one of those is definitely the void heart

lyric fox
#

ye

#

I have some kinda plan to make the lifeblood charms into Infection charms

safe oasis
#

Ooh ye that’d be cool

safe oasis
#

Glad to hear that hahah

dusk crescent
#

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

safe oasis
#

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

lyric fox
safe oasis
#

Oh ye how much would a similar one (with custom everything) cost approximately? Like do u have any idea

dusk crescent
#

about $100,,,

safe oasis
#

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!

dusk crescent
#

np! ive only started talking here recently myself

lyric fox
#

The hollowknight community is always cool

Good luck with them

Will you make a full skin or just a charm set and whatever comes with them? (minions, etc)

late lodge
boreal dawn
#

ah

#

thank you

ionic crystal
#

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?

late lodge
#

look in hud.png

#

it doesn't have to be changed

ionic crystal
#

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

nocturne sky
#

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

ionic crystal
#

I don't know how to mod hmmmm

normal ether
dusk crescent
#

its not done yet, i should have it out by today or tomorrow

normal ether
#

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

dusk crescent
#

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

normal ether
#

oh i see

#

ok so i was thinking

#

like

#

this

#

but

#

you're right it's way too small

ionic crystal
minor tinsel
#

the eyes for the half-filled orb are on the side of the spritesheet

marsh wind
#

What's the GlassSoul Mod?

minor tinsel
#

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

minor tinsel
dusk crescent
minor tinsel
#

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

marsh wind
#

PlayerDataDump = PlayerDataTracker ?

dusk crescent
#

they just arent dumped individually

minor tinsel
#

yep

dusk crescent
#

aw man the border around is super tight so you dont get a lot of freedom to draw

is room rando cpu intensive? i want to use the mod but I don't want to kill my laptop

i need update on the modinstaller

silver garden
#

Do you mean "my mod installer is saying I need to update my game"?

winter blade
#

no i mean the modinstaller don't work whith new patch, and i don't wanna downpatch the game

late lodge
#

"downpatch" is not really the case, if on windows and using steam

#

and if you ask "is it up-to-date yet?", no

#

we dont know when it will be

winter blade
#

i alredy seen the pins, but i wanna wait for it to be updated instead of needing to do things, im lazy lol

versed remnant
#

@winter blade then… why did you send this here? It’s not like this will make it go faster

ionic crystal
#

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?

silver garden
#

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

winter blade
#

@versed remnant idk, sorry

nimble lichen
#

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 ?

late lodge
#

?

#

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

charred oasis
#

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)

#

invincibility, no-clip and increased nail damage

#

and much more

nimble lichen
# late lodge mostly an extra folder that breaks it

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.

late lodge
#

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

late lodge
nimble lichen
late lodge
#

ehm

#

grimm knight

#

i believe

nimble lichen
late lodge
#

ye

#

wait

#

no and yes?

nimble lichen
#

would that break ?

late lodge
#

ye thats the one i meant

#

it would break as it could see an extra folder for incorrect path

nimble lichen
#

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

late lodge
#

hmm

#

i guess it works..?

nimble lichen
#

thanks! just in case you come across a new case that we could automatically fix do let me know !

late lodge
#

:+1:

you assume people will look for a "fix skin" when skins arent workingvesselsip

just pre release it on github

and then dont share with anyone else

ionic crystal
#

But they are cut off in-game

#

Is there any way to extend the area that registers the eyes?

brazen river
#

dang so close

ionic crystal
#

It isn't intersecting with any other assets so it should be safe to extend the area that the eyes register

late lodge
ionic crystal
#

whats that

late lodge
#

whenever redfrog finishes it

late lodge
ionic crystal
#

I just want some cool little lines on my orbs pensob

late lodge
#

well you have little lines

nimble lichen
ionic crystal
#

It would probably look funky when it changes from half filled orb to fully filled

late lodge
#

make the eyes on the filled orb the same?

stiff wolf
#

Could always edit the full version too

nimble lichen
#

yep

stiff wolf
#

Or it could look like they're opening their eyes when the orb fills up

#

I think that could be cool

brazen river
#

or you could just delete the eyes all together and then have a blank orb until it's full grubthink

dusk crescent
#

you could try editing them onto this? idk if ck allows you to edit this though

late lodge
#

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

silver garden
#

I've seen people edit the colours of these, I'm pretty sure

minor tinsel
silver garden
#

Yeah, sayo is asking if there's a way to extend that

minor tinsel
silver garden
#

Oh yeah, that's a thing

That just exists behind the top layer with the eyes on

silver garden
#

What exactly are you showing here?

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

ionic crystal

#

I'd love to take a look at that, TBH

#

at someone coming up with a way to extend the lines?

# nimble lichen

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

nimble lichen
#

yep that's the plan, also an okay button here to manually acknowledge it and make it go away

random elk
#

Also there should be a horizontal option to set default skin

nimble lichen
#

default skin as in ?

random elk

Like when you load the game

When you load the game, it uses your most recently used skin already

Then it works

I'm...fairly sure that the Mac modinstaller does not install the Windows modding api

nimble lichen
pure stream
#

why on earth

I can't find any of the mod files catprithink

Where are you looking

In the Hollow Knight app bundle and also in ~/Library/Application Support

nimble lichen

Inside your managed directory , one level above the Mods directory is where you need to copy the DLL file

pure stream
#

Ah, it's the one inside Resources

nimble lichen
#

~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/hollow_knight.app/Contents/Resources/Data/Managed/ should be it

pure stream
#

there is a top level managed directory but it is empty

nimble lichen

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
