@dry snow if you go to #archived-modding-help there should be a pinned message that will walk you through the process.
lapis is also nice imo
What mods to people recommend outside of the ones in the installer?
does anyone have mods for the beta version of hollow knight?
yesn't
in what way does mantis gods alter them? im fighting them just as easily as before (i am in godhome, so is that the issue?)
Honestly something I think would be a fun mod would be randomizing the spots where the items, (Mantis claw, mothwing cloak, etc), mask shards, and soul vessel fragments spawn. For example, you defeat Hornet, and instead of Mothwing cloak, you find the monarch wings.
I thought randomizer was just bosses and enemies
I think it would be cool if someone made a mod that added like, a Path of Pain 2, and they added new game mechanics to it, while keeping a "vanilla" feel instead of a Kaizo feel
Randomizer 3 on mod installer is an item and optionally room Randomizer. Read the pins of #randomizer for more info
Thanks.
has anyone made a mod where sisters of battle has a shared healthpool?
or that skips the first mantis fight?
Why would someone?
mantis gods doesn't work on a godseeker save for whatever reason
damn, thanks
cause the current sisters of battle is very annoying as half of it is the fun new fight and half is with one or two of them
iirc the mantis gods modded fight adds traitor lord and has them all share one health pool, so it has what you want but it also bonus.
i assume they arent 1 entity, you can just kill the TL with debug
just got monarch wings from chest in kings pass in randomiser room and item mod lol
and then i got mantis claw next item
and then moathwing cloak... how am i so lucky
modinstaller randomly stopped working
says i need to update but my game is fully updated
nevermind read modding help
is there any Enemy Health Bar mod that puts the HP number in view?
Debug
can it display while the menu is down?
does the mod manager have something akin to an invulnerability mod?
Debug mod
hey wheres the download for sapphire knight could someone send it to me
thanks

what does the hkmote mod do
it plays animations on pressing 0-9 above alphabets, when on a HKMP server other players can see those as emotes
ok
somebody pls make a new version of the cut content mod ples
for 1.5
like the 2 testing rooms, the golden trophy in colosseum and such
somebody
funny way to spell SFGrenade but ok
how do u find the custom skins?
in the pins there are 2 drives
customknight
and modcommon]
double click the modinstaller.exe you downloaded
yes
why not
the skins are in pins
?pins
Check the pinned messages for more information - https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/187137504393035776/823796522751623168/unknown.png
What else would you click? That is the "mod manager" lol
What else would you click?
Delete button
Of course. Mod installer should have windows bind the Delete Button to a system action of Opening ModInstaller.exe
I just recently downloaded the mod installer, and specifically the custom knight mod, and while changing textures seems simple, looking at the folders of all the image files, and all the the modding required to get it into the game really gives me a new appreciation for the people that do this. I have no clue if anyone involved will see this, but for anyone who makes the mods, textures, or mod installers thank you for all the effort to bring new depth to this game!
i have a question
how do i make that all enemies are randomised, not that it chooses what 1 kind becomes in the room?
cuz i got a impossible thing
10 NO EYES IN THE ROOM
don't even have Dash yet
although i have not made any mods that are on the installer, thank you anyways, most of the work is done by the people that make the modding-api. 
go to options> enemy randomizer and enable chaos mode (in-game)
TYSM, otherwise i would have died to those
would be kinda impossible
wtf
Very specific fps
krita rounds it to 17 
As a big fun of GrubTown.dll, I'm curious:
Any chance you'd want to revisit the mod, and add some "grub houses" in the background? Like, just copy the assets for the grubs in Grub Father room, and put them around in Dirtmouth?
what would an hd ghost skin be
Idk how to mess with unity stuff yet
Yes
Overly detailed to the point of where it makes a person uncomfortable just looking at it
make it
bruh i did an item rando and idk what to do because it is my first one ever and i found no items to get out of forgotten cross roads
Check your randomizerhelperlog.txt
It's in your folder with your saves

Can anyone help me with modding hollow knight? I looked it up on reddit and told me to have the radiance mod application installed and revert back down to 1.4.3.2 then I opened the mod installer and only showed a blank screen.
Here is a pic for confirmation.
Ping me when someone has responded please.
so been reading through search bar about the enemy hp bar mod
apparently it causes lag?
would explain why it feels like controls are less responsive
but it's just a literal rectangle, shouldn't be that graphics intensive, right?
which mod allows me invincibility and enemy noclip?
i already beat the game steel nail btw just doing some test
debug mod
I believe it’s actually like 3 or 4 per enemy. Also it might have a laggy detection system for detecting newly spawned enemies
Guys, I'm trying the No-hit run, there is any mod that could help me?
Mul made a mod which adds any number of mask damage you specify to every hit you take
I see, thanks for info
Mul? sorry, I'm new in modding.
a modder
i think they want to fine tune it before "releasing" it though, although they have shared it earlier
i just dont want to infringe by sharing for them
Well, thank you.
just find that, set it to 6, and normal enemies will do 7 damage, strong enemies will do 8 damage. then set it to 7. then Glass Soul.
There's a glass soul mod pinned in #archived-modding-help
thank you, but glass soul is outdated
Outdated?
its not outdated?
its the most recent one that can be found
it can't be outdated if there are no newer versions
does anyone know how to install mods the safest way?
?i
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages. 
ah, thanks dino bot lol
Guys what are ur's favourite skins? I personally like one called "Scion"
pale king
yeah whatever 3.0 is a good one
Fyremoth
Don’t say that it is still in development. The skin is public.
but fyremoth is still not released yet 
how do i open the mod menu again after closing it?
i been trying but its not working how do i fix?
it opens a program called au
but it has no gui
ty
BuT tHe SkIn Is
bUt YoU sAiD fYrEmOtH
is the firemoth skin going to be updated to include shade / particle effects when the mod releases?
well, the knight is still made of void. I think the lore is that the knight can convert soul into fire. So the shade would still be void
wow leaking the mod
oh i also meant particles like particles for the spells / double jump feathers etc
Let me just put this one with the others….
wow leaking the comments 😔
wow not sharing enough 😔
where is this from?
- #archived-modding-help
- modinstaller 1 or 2?
oh sry i thought i can talk about it here
I dont know exactly but i downloaded it from this link https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe
wow leaking the discord messages 😔
cringo momento
that's why my modinstaller stopped working 😡
easy fix tho
#modding-lore when 
once i'm done with tot it can start
actually meant to create a mod that took whatever the police is and if a player is moving too fast through the game they try to catch you GTA style
make a heavy sentry husk chase you forever starting from king's pass 
every % faster than the expected time adds to the wanted meter
but husk sentry too slow for police
Idea
Doomslayer knight
i now have the mental image of a great husk sentry running at mach speed
watcher knight
there is also the idea of going the NFS MW way and having different types of "cops" and "strategies" that cops employ.
for example:
- using a big boi sentry to block the door while others attack you.
- adding unexpected "spikes" to trip you when dashing
- literally ramming into you at full speed
imagine watcher knights fight but all 6 at once
Easy. Just use invincibility
done that
hey if anyone would be interested in collaborated to make a Customknight, dm me and we can figure it out
anyone want to play multiplayer, i want to try it out
@stray tide
At the very least, you'd probably want to edit knight.png and sprint.png for just the basic stuff with the Knight. There's a little over 1000 sprites between those two sheets.
There's some other sheets for spells if you want to customize those.
If you have Custom Knight installed, then you can look through the Default folder to see what sprites you can edit.
I'm aware of the sprite files that I specifically want to edit, my question is moreso, how long would it usually take to resprite almost the entirety of, say, knight.png?
A thousand sprites seems pretty intimidating
But considering that the sprite changes themselves are quick it feels doable at the same time
I feel like that is completely dependant on the person, tbh
what exactly are you looking to do ?
it depends what you want to do
I would say, the changes I'm looking to make to the original skin are extremely simple, and not that time consuming. I don't have an exact reference of the design yet, but the Demon Slayer Tanjiro mod is similar to what I want to do. Minus the nail changes, and I also want to leave out a few "unimportant"(to me) sprites. Like Shape of Unn sprites, cutscene sprites etc
I'm specifically looking to redo most of the Knight sprites here
Demon Slayer Tanjiro is an overall redraw of all the sprites iirc
Yeah, it seems to be
i dont know what that one is but if its a redraw of most of the sprite itll probably take about a month or more
ive had someone say that they were gonna make a custom knight skin but then they saw all the sprites lmao
actually less because you arent doing extras
i dont blame them at all XD
Literally my reaction too
it me
it just makes you appareciate the amount of work that went into hk even more
I personally don't mind working several hours a day for this project. I'd probably even have a friend to help me out with some sprites. Would you guys estimate that it'd take longer than two months to achieve? That's basically the ""deadline"" for me
it shouldnt take longer that 2 months i think
Here's what i would suggest : take a basic animation like idle or something and try making it and see how much work / time it actually is for you to get the kind of result you want and that should put you in a better position than us estimating imo
good idea
That is a good suggestion, thank you
is there any way to bind mouse buttons to controls in the 1.4 version of the game so i can use mods?
cant live without my weird keybinding descisions
and 1.4 just doesnt allow me to
i play on 1.4.3.2 with mods and i can use lmb and rmb
hmm
maybe ill give it another shot
cause normally when i try to do that it treats it like i just deselected that control and clears the binding
maybe i can copy whatever file saves the controls?
hmm
seems although i can bind them, it just lists my 4th and 5th mouse buttons as unmapped but it works fine
guess i can mod now
Hey, can anyone tell me what's the process for sharing a custom knight skin?
The one I'm making is almost done, but I don't know what to do with it afterwards
@stray tide how long a skin will take depends heavily on how motivated you are, how much time you have per day, and how much you really want to make the skin a reality
if you're going for a typical skin (knight, sprint, hud, and spells), i'd say maybe anywhere from 1-3 months
if you're going for the bare minimum (knight and sprint, or just knight), i'd say a month is enough
however, the time will vary a lot depending on the three factors i listed. i've heard of skins taking 4 days to skins taking many months
if you work fast and are pretty motivated, you can definitely finish within 2 months
however, if you aren't the fastest worker and just work on it whenever you feel like it, it will take a lot longer (i can speak from experience)
i know there's a couple other skin makers who are most definitely better and more experienced at this than i am (thinking of akivaq and chaktis), so you might wanna try talking to them too, considering i'm not really...the model skin maker
anyway sorry for rambling, hope this helps you
actually, my perspective is most likely skewed because of how slow of a skin maker i am lmfao
i mean i finished an entire hud in 2 days and 2 days to finish the rest although its not really the greatest skin and a lot of it are recolors
for my latest skin it did took 4 months but also i took so many breaks
hey
Hello
is there any mods that make crystal/enraged guardian more difficult?
Technically hell mod does that
Not sure if it’s what you’re looking for though. To my knowledge there are no crystal/enraged guardian mods
darn
my ability to take "breaks" is beyond your understanding
I was able to get radiant on him in godhome pretty easily so I wanted him to be harder
what about the decoration mod tho that adds buzzsaws to EG
there's probably a lot of deco mod variants of the arena yeah
apparently hunt's working on a set of buffs for all the bosses too
i'm not sure if that's just deco mod or actual code stuff
honestly i really want more original modded bosses instead of buffed versions of existing bosses
i really love the cagney carnation mod for example
why the fuck did i just imagine sans fight in godhome
who wouldn't?
I’ve actually been working on it on and off for a while now
gimme
gimme
gimme
Where did you get that I was finished or had it in a playable state
My on and off working so far is recreating it in unity so I can port it to hk, no mod code actually exists yet
(Sorry this came off a little more rude than intended)
so tried deleting TC registry editor to get rid of input lag when downpatching to 1.4
but still didn't work, rip
guess I'll be waiting for updated moddingAPI
sucks cuz only "mods" I have just delete certain game objects that cause fps to crap out on toaster pc
like sly's candles, soul warrior's lamps, colosseum lanterns, etc
@random ginkgo you finished that personal void knight skin of yours? Or made progress
I’m interested by it
i think this fits here but does anyone have a mod they like to do full playthroughs with and not like some random insanely unbeatable boss?
I'm making one
I stopped in the middle cuz low motivation and moved to colosseum but I plan (haha sure) to go back to it when I'm done
lightbringer or something?
i tried to use it but it just didnt let me attack and i had the like modinstaller thing already used and did it through that thing so idk
Come again?
Does the RandoMapMod work with Rando 3 or just Rando 2?
sorry i phrased that so weird one second
I have modinstaller.exe and i used that and activated lightbringer but i loaded into a new save and it wouldnt let me attack at all
Figured it out through the readme
Nice work 
Nice to see Aki's Angel Knight and lime's Pale King so popular
Mod installer isn't working for me, whenever I open it it closes immediately. can someone help me?
fun fact we playtested each other's skins
Nice
I still have the beta pk skin I think
like, when lime released an early version of only the main sheet and some few others
i kept delaying the sans skin
sand undertable skin
when are you done with ngs
perfect timing
kinda? ive done as much as im capable of which is the bare minimun lol ive been busy and am going to be too busy to work on it for the forseable future so i might just release it how it is
gimme like an hour im not at my laptop rn
do you have an idea of when it will be released/has it already been released?
Aka sus
@nocturne sky heres the whole thing
tbh i havent even fully started on it
oh okay
i know thisis months old but good lord this is life saving to me. now i can make my custom skin for myself!!
now if i only knew which filder to put it in...
^^^ FIGURED IT OUT SORRY
im e so excited to do this for llike 10 hours
oh boy making a custom skin is gonna take longer than 10 hours dude
no like, per session probably. i am shaking BAHAHA
ohh fair XD
try to pace yourself so that you dont run out of steam too quick!
will do!! running into another problem though
where do i put the GODump file 🤭
i am fiddling around with it currently hoohoo
is this for the krita plugin? i dont really know how that works
yep! im placing it anywhere logical
will see if it works eventually bahaha
i used to do it in sai
and i COULD follow the vidoes that use firealpaca
but i like krita and being efficient with a time line so this is the curse i bring unto myself
yeah the timeline in krita would be helpful
i just used sai, the previews in spritepacker are enough for me
its probably best i dont tamper krita files too much
i DO have sai so i should just stick to it
What does "cursed nail" do in randomizer
oh
I don't have focus but I found nailsmith and MoP
and now I'm in deepnest
and city of tears, no escape
theres always a escape
And up, fwiw
ah ok
Not having Up Slash makes a lot of fights (re: dream warriors, mostly) very annoying lol
god debug is annoying
i have Log level 0 because i tested something, and my modlog grows 1 mb ever 5 sec
I found Zote in deepnest and now it makes sense that he doesn't know me because I've never seen him in this file before
Rando is clearly the true Canon
yup
Why 0
1 is best
Someone
Someone must make the doomslayer knight
too powerful, hollownest would cease to exist
why dont you
I'm not super great at making skins
well, have you tried?
how much $$$ you offering
No I’m bad at art too
really depends on how much money it would cost to make something like that
for high quality.... probably around $300-$400 USD
damn
it do be making ~1500 sprites
The knight spritesheet alone is huge
$10 per hour for ~30 hours
that might be too low of an estimate tbh
and too cheap of an hourly rate
project and all?
Thanks
I'll probably forget about this but I'll see what I can do
Good luck with your own stuff
Help I did something weird with the mod installer
I specified the wrong location and now I can't redirect it
reset installer instructions in the 
oh ty
Help please
@ Mickely, can you put this on the skin drive?
Who is responsible for the skin drive?
the message above might give a hint
Sorry, just wanted to make sure
Hey guys! I have some questions: is there a way to play randomizer in multi-player? Is it smooth?
Also, what's the best way to install skins while already having the Modinstaller set up?
1st, You just both use the same randomizer mod and use the same seed, 2nd, same as any other was of installing skins, put the folders containing png files in the CustomKnight folder after installing the CustomKnight mod
actual ping for visibility: @weak plinth
Thank you!
can you DM it to me. I'll forget otherwise

@hushed wasp WOOOOOOOOO LET'S GOOOOO 
WOOOO
It was so much fun XD
Yes
I love this game so much
Multiplayer is super fun
yes 
The best experience I've ever had in this game

Hey I just beat HK 113% any good mods I should do?
THIS IS AMAZING
In addition to doing Randomizer "races" and such like Someone 𓌬 mentioned, you can do:
- MultiWorld Randomizer, where everyone you want to play with has their items shuffled among one-another's worlds (you can find your friend's Mantis Claw, for example).
Info about it: https://github.com/Shadudev/HollowKnight.MultiWorld
Direct link to the bundle of mods https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/836256114659033098/863229962298851368/MultiWorldModBundle.zip
You can also decide to all play using a "multiplayer" mod as well, which would make you all show up in each other's worlds if you want.
Here's more info about that:
https://github.com/Extremelyd1/HKMP, and there's a server linked on that page if you have more questions about it.
As soon as this becomes available for Download, it is instantly becoming the default skin for "Team Hive" for the skins I use with HKMP 
This is amazing!
someone should create a mod to make the game look like limbo
with the knight being black with white eyes
void knight should do the trick
I mean like the background too
what background
like the walls and floor
Basically, inverted?
I have a question regarding hiveblood sprite
I wonder how much frames per second in the game?
I mean for animations
I am assuming 24 fps
Hey guys, could someone make a skin that replaces the Knight with the Lost Kin(not infected) or with the greenpath vessel? I would do it myself but i'm terrible at making skins
most of the animations in the game are 12 fps
there are some exceptions, like nail slashes are 40 i think
i'm not sure what hiveblood is, but if you use the modified godump in the pins, it'll also dump a .json file that lists the fps of the animation, even if you don't use the krita plugin that comes with it
hive blood is 12, 15 and 16 i believe, definetly 12, 50% 16, low% sure 15
I started a new rando with the option to have some starting items and started in Ancestral mound, I'm now in kings pass(it just brought me here, I chose item and area randomizer) with two arcane eggs, two grubs, wings, claw, hwraiths, and the love key. This is so neat
Good lord, lime, I need this
Abees Shriek
the entirety of Greenpath is now canonically contained in the temple of the black egg
and now I'm fighting Soul Master
How are mods for hollow knight usually made?
Go to pins, you'll find documentation and stuff, and how to get started
if you have any questions just ask there
Ah i see, thanks!
I slam my keyboard for some time and it just appears
visual studio and the modding api
oki
What mods work with 1.5 (i had to reinstall hk, it was constantly crushing when i put the debug mod on)
none, i think
you need to downpatch to 1.4.3.2 for mods (there's a guide in #archived-modding-help pins)
Ight ty
mulhima has a list of some mods he updated, but you'd have to scour through this discord to find the link / the mods
whose this idiot you talk about?
the one with the 2012 pfp
I swear the randomizer groups benches, I just found a greenpath bench next to Mato's hut
And another greenpath bench in mato's hut
I found steel soul jinn although I'm not in steel soul, is that normal
I think so. It’s a different scene I think.
they just chillin together
where do i find the challenges needed for some of the hollowknight skins?
thank you
Could anyone here help me implement an alternate skin for a boss?
I already have the spritesheets done but I don't have any experience with coding at all, and as far as I know there isn't a customknight sort of think for reskinning enemies
Actually, there is something for that. I don't know if there's a stand-alone one, but @nimble lichen would know
swapster moment
enemychanger moment
there is a dev build of swapster for 1.4.3.2 but it's going to be a part of custom knight for 1.5
time to never get anywhere near customknight again 
what why ?
bloat
Thanks!
it's like behind a toggle
tbf its hidden away in a menu
It would be bloat if it ran whenever you changed skins or w/e, but definitely seems fine the way it currently works, which is by essentially not existing unless you enable it.
memememeeee
pick meeee
oh you're using the Dandy-brand Swapster™️ already 
im pretty sure they are still gonna nead help
its possible they dont know the correct scene name and gameobject name
Yeah I've got no clue what I'm doing lol
who're you changing?
Dung defender
Someone dropped the individual sprites in here a while ago so I decided to try and edit them with Spritepacker
Yooo, nice
reminds me of Pa0's works
I actually have a prototype grimm troupe watcher knights from them
You mind if I use this?
Go ahead
I'm thinking of making a single mod showcasing a lot of reskins like this
oh wait do you want me to send you the code i have? i replaced the sprites for dung defender too
I'm not sure I would know how to use it
What's the name of the original creator?
I made it
btw merm can I use your beautiful NKS in the reskin showcase
yeeee go ahead
oh you said someone made the individual sprites tho?
also can you send me the beans sheet-
i can set it up for you, you wont have to do anything except for saving the sprite sheet in the folder
Oh, I just meant that someone sent the sprites for the original DD, and I edited them from there
for DD it'd be much simpler using MTmerm's code
Waterways_05_boss and Dung Defender
what do you want it to be called
if you wanna use swapster
ohh I see
Just Grimm Defender
why is elderbug currently called "elderbug-chan"
what mods are you using
I have the NPC spritesheet as well
ah i dont know how to replace that
Ah rip
i can get you started though with the boss
"praise the f*cking sun"
PFFT
do you want the boss title to be changed too? i have the code for that as well
"am I doing the 'dab' correctly?"
If you could, then that would be great
btw how should I credit you two
just grimm defender?
like, what should I call you
Ye
MTmerm
if possible a link to my tumblr lol its in my about
ohh okay nvm
_ _ MTmerm's
Nightmare King
SANS
Like that
or whatever it'll be for nkg's big title card
but yeah
I can add it in the statue description maybe?
when is this used?
in the room below or like after the fight?
when he's in the ground
after the fight
like, aboveground
poking out when you come back after picking up the charm
and apologises for assuming you're a mindless combat-oriented zombie
its fine! i feel like that would be obnoxious
yep
Welp
tomorrow im gonna be adding three skins to Absolute Soul Wielder, it seems
Thanks, you two
np
let me check
looks great
Nice
I just add it to the mods folder, right?
Thanks so much!
np!
how is the zip 4 times the size of the mod
it might also contain the mod itself for one
and also game files 🥴
finally got dash after getting almost everything else
When will 1.5 modding be added???
At some point. Check the pins in modding help regularly to see if it has been updated
does the benchwarp mod still work with current patch?
If by current patch you mean any 1.5 build, no mods work. You need to revert to 1.4.3.2
so I know it's been said before moddingAPI doesn't work with 1.5
but I've heard it does exist in some capacity?
cuz I want to use a simple mod made by mulhima that deletes game objects
only like 30 lines long
and if I revert, I assume I need to start with a fresh save?
or does it transfer over somehow
1.4 and 1.5 use the same saves
i wish lightbringer and child of light could work together
What does duplicate major items do?
it duplicates major items 
it just makes the game have multiple copies of stuff like mantis claw
Would that make other items inaccessible?
no
I see a lot of cool sprite sheets, but can't seem to find an original looking one, is that found somewhere else?
just download custom knight and the default one will be in the mods/customknight folder
Is it possible to get the same of 1 item then?
yes
Or is the point of the mod to make the items more easily accessible
this, makes your chances easier of finding major progression like movement
you get money for duplicates, i think 300 geo
all non major items and duplicates are 1 geo
does anybody know when modinstaller will work for 1.5
In 18 days
How do i uninstall a mod? I want to uninstall the benchwarp mod before putting a new one, how do I do that?
you can create a folder called "disabled" and put the mods into that
I don't just wanna disable, I want to totally get rid of the mod
But even if that's my only option, where do I find the mod?
I used an installer but idk how to get back to the installer
Sorry I'm really bad at modding games
it's at the same path as your game is installed, in the managed folder of the data folder
thx
otherwise opening the installer would also help
I forgot what the installer is called lol, or how to open it
I'll try to just go to the managed folder tho
Ty <:
sorry if this is the wrong place to ask but which mod randomizes the charm notch cost? i want to have them randomized too but i'm not sure which one adds it
bruuuhhhhh
does the ModInstaller have the latest version
or are there any mods similar to it
It's a feature in RandomizerMod3.0
Modding is currently for 1.4.3.2
Modding stuff for 1.5 is still in development
it does?
Yes, as long as you're using a recent version
Note: by recent, I mean a beta version
Not on mod installer
ah ok
thank you! i have 3.0 installed and enabled, but the restrictions and randomized charm notches don't appear when making a new game for some reason, so i was a little bit confused
I can't remember if the one pinned in #randomizer is up to date, but here's the current Rando:
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/836256114659033098/851555030417801216/RandomizerMod3.0.dll
If you play a lot of Rando, you may want to join the Rando server Speedrun server, pinned in #randomizer
oo alrighty! thank you again :)
nashe 😏🍔
I noticed sprite packer missing original sprites like hiveblood recovering
How do I implement?
Is the modinstaller updated yet
No
Pretty sure it was in there when I did mine. Have you double checked every folder?
Checked, it is there
Also it is not only hiveblood
There are few animations missing especially Knight alta
If your game crash while you're dumping it will stop in the middle
If that's not it, idk maybe in a different folder
currently looking at a level editor
Hollow Knight Editor (discontinued, see https://github.com/nesrak1/HKWorldEdit2 instead) - nesrak1/HKWorldEdit
would downloading unity personal suffice
aight thanks
the mod installer says i need the latest version for it to work
and idk how to update it ig
-> #archived-modding-help somebody can probably help you there
I want to know if there is any fan expansions for the game that adds new areas, Bosses etc.
Test of Teamwork adds more Path of Pain style areas
Currently all new bosses are essentially just replacements afaik
I think there's a mod that adds some more (indie something), but not new areas afaik
Check out the "collection of ReadMes" in #archived-modding-help
for good descriptions
Thanks
Is there a sprite packer for the enemy changer mod?
the spritepacker does work for those as well, it's just that the location of the spritesheets and naming scheme are different
your version must be 1.4.3.2 or earlier, the current 1.5 patches is unstable for mods
read the pinned message in #archived-modding-help
"Or earlier" is not correct here, fwiw
It must be 1432
hello
ah whoops forgot that thanks for the reminder
are there any good skin mods
"Yeah Whatever 3.0" is a good one
Fyremoth
oki i haev the custom knight mod how do i get the skins? @versed remnant
bUt It Is NoT oUt YeT
@fervent bough you might want to move this to #archived-modding-help
oki
The skin is. As you know
You said fyremoth
The skin is called Fyremoth
Damn. I have said Fyremoth so often even auto correct capitalises it.
what mods should i be using for a randomizer?
I like these ones : The daughter of hallownest, sapphire, pale king and one that is in a languange I cant understand
if you want any one of these I can link you then
im doing a item rando and the fountain in basin said it was for claw but i didnt get claw after
glitch or did i get baited
cause from what ive seen from other randos you usually get an item from the fountain
Did you pay the full amount?
Fountain is still 3k
You're not locked out of it, you just need to pay the full amount to get it
okay
So you paid however much you had, but still owe the remainder
okay ty
Also:
Claw at Fountain?

ive basically only gotten around bc of stag stations
currently only have dash
and im new to HN modding/speedrun stuff so my ability to do skips is very limited
its a rough first item rando
that would be nice
This rando hates me. Had to get right dash to get wings (yes I split dash, nail and claw). 
I am still pogo only so whee
does anyone know anything about using the nintendo switch pro controller on steam for hollowknight?
you can try joy2key
I had to get right claw and right dash to get focus, with cursed masks
@dry snow i updated my mod
the update will be in modinstaller soon enough (maybe tomorrow i hope)
or download from here if you want to https://github.com/KaanGaming/HollowKnightDRPC/releases/tag/1.1.3Beta
(actually nvm it's updated in modinstaller now)
I never did modding or anything
But if you guys are skilled at redesigning
I suggest someone to make an snes version redesign thing
Where everything is all pixelated
Anyone here?
i mean, you could just run the whole game through a pixelate filter, but i doubt it'd look good
people have done that with customknight skins
I think I saw something like that a long time ago
i dumped shade sprites for sprite packer
Does this mean that Lime skins are getting custom shades soon 👀
shoot that's out already?
its been like ~~ a few months~~ 1+ month anyway
that brings me to a question, what'd be the best way to update people about new sprites and stuff added in customknight.
i don't want to add changelog popups because they're annoying
and no one reads the readme (not that it's updated atm)
if MI had an option for change log with an update that'd be a way to handle it such that the curious could see it
hmmm maybe i'll just add a change log button in the menu that shows up a bit differently if there is something actually new
and let people who want to see it see it and it be invisible for people who dont want to see it
LMK if anyone has any suggestions
Tbh, if you can do a "changelog" button that goes away after clicked, that might be good
Also, I should post the shades I made here I suppose
Static Shade:
Actually, maybe I'll put them in a folder with a Gdrive link, instead of spamming a bunch of images 
i have an issue
tbh i knew about it for a while since i check this channel once in a while i just didnt bother updating before now, id guess anyone who makes skins would be looking for new things after an update as well
but yeah a change log with an update would be good
So is there a place i can get boss sprites for sprite packer?
yeah that makes sense a change log button will come up in 1.5 then
use godump to dump them, probably
How do i get godump?
I don't want to get the sprite sheets though, i wanna get the individual sprites
yeah, i got individual sprites for shade with it
Is there a video on how to use it, to do that?
if there is one i did not find it but it has instructions in the readme
Aren't all of the enemy sprites pre-dumped in the pins of one of the art channels?
They might just be atlases there, but it would save a step
those are just sprite sheets i think
also potentially not valid for 1.5
like THK's sheet was changed
True
I'm so confused on what its telling me to do. I DONT WANT A GRUBFLY SPRITE GODUMP!, I WANT FALSE KNIGHTS SPRITES!
so theres a godump settings file in AppData\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight
and with f3 (i think?) it makes a list of animations in your scene to dump, you can erase the ones you dont want in that settings file
Ok, thanks!
have you tested it or are we going to be having a 1.1.2beta again 👀
Why you gotto be mean to them
cus i'm interested how the dependency auto install is going to work
last time it broke some stuff lol
downloads are hard
is there by any chance a rat skin for the custom knight mod
Sprite packer won't work for the collector ):
@fervent bough debug mod
Nvm got it working (:
gunmod isn't working, the gun is just flashing, like it's firing a blank
Read the Readme
I've tried reloading, that just makes my soul go down for a second then go back up(I tried reloading both with the gun in hand and nail in hand), I tried casting, quick cast, I've uninstalled randomizer and charm overhaul, and disabled death counter because the ui collided, nothing seems to work
reading the readme does help
maybe the readme of pale court can help with that
probably
of what?
its a joke
oh
pale court is a joke and it's an illusion just like silksong 
just a coverup to make modders seem busy
and taking a single hit of damage kills me
have you read the readme
of Hollow Point? Yes.
Apparently I'm the blind man
what about steel soul 
¯_(ツ)_/¯
does it count as a regular save?
it does
still receiving all the damage ever
like, steel soul and normal are game saves. while godhome is a dlc save
hold on ima ask something in #archived-modding-development
are there any good hk mods for post game
like ive done every thing
not path of pain th
o
and i dont want it too be like "unbeatable"
@fervent bough if u know
what mods do you guys reccomend me getting
Test of teamwork
In both cases, I recommend looking at the "Collection of Readmes" doc in #archived-modding-help pins 
It has descriptions of mods, and online readme files for them, so you can have an idea of what interests you.
Other than that, the real answer is RandomizerMod3.0, which essentially makes hollowknight infinitely replayable, in any way that you're in the mood to play it
guys what does mod console do
Nothing don't use it

debug
F1
thanks
If I knew how to code I would make a mod that increased the power of parrys.
Something that takes skill dosen't get as much reward as spamming D Dark. D Dark gives so much more damage and basically double the I Frames of parries.
I'd make the mod able to give parries double or triple your nail damage as a reward.
can someone send me some skins for hollow knight
?pins
Check the pinned messages for more information - https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/187137504393035776/823796522751623168/unknown.png
what skins are there and which pin
4th pin from bottom
thanks
8th pin from top
Why is the first pin still a pin
k how do i put it in the game
nvm i found out
is there a playable grub mod or any mod that can turn you into an enemy
ask hunthussie
he made a mod where you can kill grubs
No?
i didnt make a mod htat lets you kill grubs
italy did
the only grub mod i made was one that changes their spots
oh
Heyo! Im having some issues regarding the Custom Knight mod, I think ive done everything correctly but when I change skins nothing happens
Oh shit yeah sorry
Is there a quirrel custom knight?
Anyone have some first time mods that would be good for someone who got all the achievements? I'm looking for some more fun as I love the game but there's a large mod list and I'm not sure which to look at
modded bosses are a good way to just like, keep upping the difficulty
if you're looking for mods for new playthroughs, lightbringer and randomizer are good ones
If you've never tried Randomizer I highly recommend it
benchwarp, customknight, and qol don't add any content per se, but they're just really nice to have
test of teamwork is good once i finish this garbage
I'll check these out, thanks!
i'm just trying out mods. can mods destroy existing, unmodded, save files?
do i have to get another copy of the game to be safe?
another copy won't save your saves, but backing saves up is a good thing to do, just in case
?saves
Saves
Windows File Paths: (Assumes Default Steam Install Path, Adjust accordingly for DRM Free or Non-Standard Steam Path)
Game Files: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\``` ** ** Mac File Paths: ```Save Files: ~/Library/Application Support/unity.Team Cherry.Hollow Knight/ Game Files: ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/hollow_knight.app/``` ** ** Linux File Paths: ```Save Files: ~/.config/unity3d/Team Cherry/Hollow Knight/ Game Files: ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/```
the save files paths
so i can run a mod on my existing copy with normal unmodded saves?
yes
got it
what if i change the version? sorry for so many questions, i'm new to the game
if i go to 1.4, what will happen to my updated save files?
will they corrupt?
changing versions doesn't affect save files (unless you load into them and save in game)
and the difference between latest patch (something 1.5, idk) and the 1.4.3.2 patch is for the saves exactly nothing, no need to worry there
probably not
When will the mods be updated to 1.5?
Hey, is anyone else having an issue with the sleepers scenes skipping itself? It didnt happen on my playstation when I played through, but for some reason its skipping itself on pc. I got custom knight, benchwarp, and qol
That's a QoL feature
You can find your QoL settings in your save folder and turn them back on if you want.
Stag scenes should also be missing
Okay cool 🙂 Thanks!
Ive only gotten trash from fotf
yo anybody know what the mod "ASCll camera" does?
Makes the screen look like ASCII characters iirc
oh ok
what are some good mods for multiplayer
- HKMP as the mod itself for playing Multiplayer
- HKMotes, for emoting to eachother
- Multiworld Randomizer (and it's dependencies), because it's the best way to play HK

And, do you know how to get the multiworld randomizer? I don't see it in the mod installer.

Thank you!
Anyone know if theere is a grass% or grassy knight mod anywhere?
Reminder: The mod installer (https://radiance.host/mods/ModInstaller.exe) and other modding resources can be found from the pinned messages. 
Will using mods block the steam achivments?
No
I was messing with some mods and now my heal is instant and I don't know the reason why can someone assist me?
Ultimatum Radiance's orb attack is such bullshit man
everything she does is fair except that
It's literally just RNG
Ikr?
It's literal aimbot
Not even aimbot but it's like if you're gonna spam me with 10 projectiles, yeah one of them is gonna hit
I only have 1 shade cloak
so when i try to install the mod installer then it says my game isnt the most recent stable release but it is does anyone know hoe to fix that?
i dont think so how can i get it?
#archived-modding-help 2nd pin
can i mod with the gog version of hollow knight?
ty
i also don't seem to have a custom knight folder, do i have to create one myself?
start the game once after installing modcommon and customknight
it worked, thanks!
Same lol and the heal also takes like no soul
Do you want to fix it?
Maybe cause my main save is fine it's just one save i made to save zote so I'll just keep that save
Go to modding help and go to pinned messages
There should be a file you can download called hollow point fix or something like that
Just follow the instructions in the file
Ye ik how to fix it but it only effects a side game not my main so I'll just keep it
I hate auto correct
Alrighty then if you need to fix it you know where to go
im really excited for pale court and the sanctuary
I agree
um, how do i download the mod installer?
i mean i downloaded it from a link- most videos on yt that talk about hollow knight mods have the mod installer in the description
it should also be pinned in the mods channel
i think
are the challenges for the skins still active?
pins
yeah i saw that, but maybe they're outdated? i guess not
doing an item rando, is there any way to create a key or something of that sort
ive essentially given up on this run, i have searched everywhere i can think besides abyss, and i cannot find kings brand
check the spoiler log, its in the same place your saves are located
ah ty
help log is a bit better
since it gives spots to look and not where exact things are
hi um can someone send me the new version of the rando mod? the one with randomized charm notch costs?
is there currently a mod that makes it so you dont lose control of your character during a bosses little intro?
No
that sucks
If you get damaged by flying around with debug’s noclip (doesn’t freeze) you can do something like that
Is there a void custom knight that looks like void. because the one i have its just a black hk
shade knight looks like void to me
idk what else you want
lemme see
do you need to restart your game for the debug to work
cuz im stuck
and i want to noclip
but i dont want to have to restart cuz my bench in a whole nother dimension im so far
xd
You can't edit the game files while it's running, so yes you need to have HK off while you download mods
Head to #randomizer
can some send me a link to the shade knight skin? cause i cant find any skin named like that
thanks
is there a mod or save file for repeating path of pain?
Is it possible to run 2 instances of hollow knight at ocne?
I want to play multiplayer with my brother on the same pc
he doesnt have hollow knight
QOL(quality of life)
dandy had smth like that i think
for the same PC there's a nucleus co-op and a guide to make it work with HKMP (the new multiplayer mod)
just checked , it might work with jngo's multiplayer as well
Awesome!
aaaa looks so cool, are you planning on adding eyes ?
probably not since shadow dash and such dont have eyes either
doesnt make much sense for him to have visible eyes if hes supposed to be glowing
that makes sense, i only asked because (at least in this video) it looks like the shade is very flat white & the orbs destroy the cool outline as well
oh yeah i could try making it less flat
i'm bad at art so wouldnt know how but some definition in the outline would make it cooler
thats a good point
i did both, apparently my internet was having troubles
it works fine now
that's so mcfrikin beautiful, lime
I forgot - did dandy do this for 1.4 or only the 1.5 CK?
im on 1.4 so i guess yes
idk a week or few i only made idle
does installing mods lags the game or am i the only one
what specifically lags
Head to #archived-modding-help and check the pinned messages there. There are three mod installers in there to download. Choose the one which matches your operating system.
Some mods take a lot of RAM, so that's not unusual, no. Things like Custom Knight especially.
so people of hallownest, what are the cutest skins, so far i've seen the bunny mod, i've looking for something with pink-ish accent
i can hue shift the mods to pink, so cuteness is the main factor
ooh thanks
found a nekomata one its quite cute too
Three axolotl one is pretty cute
honestly a lot of customknights are very cute
yo imagine gun mod but instead of shooting soul it shoots geo
there's one I know of that allows you to do it backwards but I forget the one to re-do it entirely
I think qol just does that?
yea, qol opens path of pain entrance
what hollow knight skins would you guys say are the best
Pale king
"yeah whatever 3.0"
