people didn't like the last thing zaliant did
so idk if zaliants court is that much in spirit of the community
I thought it was funny
what was the last thing zal did
Wait the thing over a year ago
Wasn't that this last April?
don't remember
So like.. 8 months ago?
But hey I'd love to see more zaliant content
it was so fucking funny
i don't mod so i need to find another coder to do my bidding for cursed stuff
i love cursed stuff
AIKG first attempt of the day...
it's interesting how he just didn't do the attack that gets faster and faster
also my game crashes whenever i die to that
I agree
is there a mod that lets you equip all the charms?
how to do that?
Download infinite notches?
From modinstaller
ok ok ok, thanks!
what multiplayer mods are there?
hi chat, is there a way to install Exaltation mod though scarab?
Because im not sure what chat to put this in: does anyone know if there has been made a Celeste Knight Skin before i spend a bunch of time trying to make one?
Depends on your definition?
For seeing other players: HKMP (on Scarab for 1.5; for 1432 you need to get the pre-1.0 version from GitHub)
Otherwise, there's also MultiWorld and ItemSync (both for 1432).
MultiWorld: Randomizer where your items can be in other people's game.
ItemSync: Randomizer where wherever anyone playing gets an item, all players get it.
thanks
This is one of my favorite moments of playing room Rando
I haven't seen one, so I don't think so.
thanks
You should read the HKMP setup guide
That's why I was mentioning the pin
To actually answer your question though:
It's just any valid, non-reserved, port that is being hosted on.
If you're hosting, then you just pick it. If you're joining, then you need to put in the port that the host is hosting on.
i cant find the ip adress it isnt showing up
A. This again seems more like #archived-modding-help
B. You're gonna need to be more specific. Who's hosting? How're they doing so? Have you read the guide yet?
Anyone wanna join me and a friend in a Hollow Knight Multiworld Rando?
i would if i can figure out how to get the mod to work
idk how to get multiworld to work, if he can help me out that would be great
he asks for your age for some reason
tal you rat
yes im asking the age mostly because its nice to know what to expect
anyways yeah i can help out with setting it up
aight cool
i've been trying to install multiworld but i can't get it to work. i figured out itemsync tho
i sent you a message
ok
does anyone have the link to the onikiri skin? i cant find it in the white palace google drive link
it was only available for a challenge
correct
is it possible for gruz mother to spawn a wingmould in enemy rando
this is my skin concept, Styled Knight, i have no skills to make the skin but i like it
does a mod to disable screen shake exists?
that's cool as heck
nope, just in 1.5 versions u can change it in the Config files in hollow knight data
thanks man, i wanna make this skin but i have no skills drawing
and im noob with sprites
no problem
btw if you pratice a lot you can probably make it
if you finish it tell me
i want to play with this skin now
lol
np
i really want to make it, maybe i´ll give it a try in another moment
ok
i need to put a zero at the camera shake multiplier?
i need to put a zero at the camera shake multiplier to disable it?
OH
i lagged so much right now
my bad for the spam
Awesome
is there a mod i can use to add zote back into my game
On 1.5 (using scarab) you can use More Saves to edit your save to put him back. You'll need to run through all of the different options and set various flags to true. There isn't a quick and easy way to do it.
If you do use MoreSaves you can use the search bar and type zote to show all the flags with zote
got it, thanks
finally got spritepacker working, so now i can start working on making la creatura into a HK skin
how is called the mod where the enemy's HP is visible i don't know which it is
enemy hp bar
okk thanks
has anyone done a scorpion based mod yet?
how does the custom knight mod work?
do i just put my custom stuff into the swap folder?
Create a folder inside mods/Custom Knight with the name of the skin, then put the atlas files in that folder.
atlas files?
And atlas file is a single image that has lots of images placed in specific positions.
Look in the default folder for an example
so put the folder of all my skins in the the Custom Knight Folder or the Skins folder?
Sorry, if you're on 1.5 it will be custom Knight/skins/[name of your skin]/[image files]
ah thanks
i'm naming my Skin after myself
cause i can
so put any skins i make in there>
Each skin will need to have its own name
And its own folder inside the skins folder
ok
wait what ? did someone ever tried ?
I think Italy did
Showcase of a mod that lets you play Hollow Knight in virtual reality using SteamVR.
Install the mod from the Scarab mod installer:
https://github.com/fifty-six/Scarab/releases/tag/v1.4.0.0
or install manually from the link here:
https://github.com/jngo102/HKVR/releases/download/Releases/HKVR.zip
cant believe this bob fred guy didnt credit the mod author
ooooooh I want to try that !
there should be an application that facilitate the creation of skins for hollow knight
which mods are the best. just did a gun playthrough
vasi
||almost as if they’re taking credit for making the mod||
recently im working on this skin lol
so, I'm playing on hollow knight 1.5.78.x using scarab for the api, I was wondering if there is a mod that can bring back some old game mechanics, like the easier inventory drop trick or somethings like that, anyone has one mod that can do that?
QoL
I really don't know what it means... can you explain please?
It's the name of a mod
I didn't know now I know
It can be found on the scarab app or I need to download from online?
It is on scarab
ok, thanks you very much!
does anyone know what is the best mod(s) within scarab or modinstaller?
That depends on what kind of mods you like, plus most people think different mods are the best. Some people like boss mods, some people like customization mods, some people like meme mods, some people like difficulty changing mods that rework stuff to be harder. And even with those categories, there’s no “best” mod. Some people may think lost lord is the best boss mod while others will think it’s inferno king Grimm
Aight.
ikr smh 
AFAIK it's online. What IP are you using?
18.189.16.129
That's the right IP.
Are you using the right Multiworld version?
it was working and then all of a sudden me and three friends couldnt connect to each other
Alright, so I had a confusing thing happen to me recently, I have a slightly old laptop with an i3 7020U, Geforce MX150 and 8gb ram. When I played Hollow Knight v1.5 on 720p with low settings my laptop would reach internal temperatures of 60-65C but now after downpatching and modding(i did not play the vanilla v1.4), when I play on the same setting and in the same environment, it only reaches 50C max.
is something funky going on with v1.5 or does the modding api help in some way?
I have no words to express how beautiful this is
is there any mod that can spawn in items? like charms etc
What do you mean by "spawn in"?
Debug mod has a "give all charms" button
As well as allowing you to toggle on/off most abilities/pickups.
If you want a specific one you can edit your save.
like pale ore or smth, thx for the charms part
or anyway to get myself a Sharpened Nail
You can increase your nail damage to the appropriate value, but you can't actually change your nail.
You could give yourself the Ore then fly to nailsmith
thx
if the creator of the randomizer mod is looking for more ideas for things to randomize they could have an option to split the vengeful spirit/shade soul and the crystal heart between left and right like they did the mothwing/shade cloak and mantis claw
what does that mean>
Splitting their direction
So you would find left vengeful spirit and right vengeful spirit separately, for example
It's something that has been thought of before FWIW
hollow knight is on sale on the GOG store
Trans Knight
how do i access skins?
?
bruh which mod makes you pure vessel.
w h e n ' s p a l e c o u r t ?
How many times have you asked?
Wdym? Do you mean a skin? If you actually mean pure vessel, iirc there was a mod a long time ago made as a test for a playable pure vessel, not sure if it was every released.
Nvm it was child of light i think
Child of light doesn’t do that, it makes you’re spells “radiance spells” or something iirc
hi people, how are you?
i can installed mod manager in hollow knight from steam but i can the 1.5 version, is possible install mods in this version?
where would I find the hollow point mod?
?i

sorry
Thanks:D
Are the mods in the pinned messages still up to date?
That depends on your definition of "up to date" 
They are probably the most up to date version of that mod-- but they are also probably for 1432, not current patch
Most 1.5 ported mods are on Scarab
Anyone knows what this Item Check is for MIllibelle?
If you're talking about Rando, Millibelle doesn't have a check
Ohh, this is probably just the vanilla Merchant Pin for her then I guess?
Yes, that's a vendor pin
can any mod tp u to dirthmouth or other areas
benchwarp can warp you to any bench
k thx
any way to unlock all benches?
Does anyone know if randomiser will be added to the 1.5 mods
The right-hand side
It will
K thnx
Can you give yourself charm notches with the debug mod?
Ah
thx, donno why they got it on the settings xd
Because it's a setting
;-;
Is it normal that you can sometimes clip through the floor if you open the map on the frame you enter a new screen?
so i downloaded custom knight a bit earlier and played with it a bit and magically~ it dissapears from the in-game mod options, ik for sure is running tho as it is written on top-left, im playing on a version of 1.5
If it definitely isn't there, head to your saves and delete customknight.globalsettings.json
You might have just pressed to delete it twice
Explorer search won't remove the result if it disappears from your computer, it would just give this error
You don't need to
You didn't delete it
You just deleted the settings file for it
Just open your game
yey, it work noe
can i talk about concepts for my mod here?
Sure
so the main idea is a temple of scorpions
it's supposed to be entered at around the time you beat nosk
there are 5 bosses plus 2 Dream Bosses (final boss is similar to radiance and is fought in the dream realm thus making it a dream boss)
can you remove and turn on mods whilst in the game?
no
the Temple is split into 3 Areas (1 main area 2 Sub-Areas) the entire area is called the Temple of Arachna and the sub-areas are:
The Dungeon (Boss is the Heretic Leader) and the Altar Room (has 2 Boss Fights (these are: Scorpio 2 (AKA Scorpio Destroyer) and Arachna)
Arachna is the final boss of the mod
Scorpio 1 (AKA Scorpio Watcher) is fought in a large room near the entrance to the Dungeon, a boss called the Brute Guard is found at the entrance of the Temple and drops the key that you need to enter the Temple
any fun boss mods?
i'm making an Infected Knight Skin
Is Hollow Knight Multiworld Randomizer with multiplayer possible?
yes
Update: Randomizer 4, Item Sync, and HKMP are all on current patch / Scarab now. Currently the only reason to follow these instructions is to play MultiWorld.
To play Multiplayer Randomizer:
🔹 Change to patch 1.4.3.2
Instructions on that here:
<#archived-modding-help message>
🔹 Use Mod Installer
or Mod Installer 2
to install RandomizerMod3.0 (which should auto-install the other mods you need: Benchwarp, QoL, ModCommon, Serecore, and Vasi). You may also want MapModS if you want maps of what you can get to.
Note: ModInstallers can be found in #archived-modding-help pins, or by using ?i in chat
🔹 Decide what kind of Multiplayer Randomizer you want to do:
Pick ONLY ONE, you cannot use both.
- MultiWorld (You both are playing "separately", but items are shuffled between your two worlds. In this mode, you could find your friend's Mantis Claw, for example)
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/836256114659033098/879108972995543060/MultiWorldModBundle.zip - ItemSync (You both play the same run, and if one of you picks up something, it goes to all people playing.).
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/836256114659033098/888156183595204608/ItemSync.zip
Take the mods from the zipped folder, and put it into your Mods directory.
Note: Those .zips come with a copy of randomizermod3.0. Don't use that one, it's slightly older. The one on Mod Installer is the most up-to-date right now.
🔹 When you're setting up the run, it'll ask for a URL. Use 18.189.16.129 for that. Then you both join the same room name (keep the name lowercase).
🔸 You can additionally use HKMP (Hollow Knight Multiplayer) if you want to see each other / interact with each other while playing.

Hey are there any more Custom Knight skins out other than like the google doc folder Fireborn shared?
no
do you need a offical version of hollow knight to play multiplayer
i downloaded from gog unlocked
yes
Yes. There's two Google drives of them (I think fire linked both), and a lot of creators independently link then from their own YouTube videos
I checked every single item shown here, but none of them had any items in them
Does anyone know why this is the case?
Are you playing Randomizer?
Yep
Did you accidentally open the save in vanilla?
Nope, every other drop on that side of Waterways was normally randomized
Just every drop on the map RN is not able to be collected
For RW

Unless you did something to the save in-between getting the other items, or were missing a dependency, there's no reason that they shouldn't be there.
is it possible to have multiple boss modification mods for the same boss installed at once? Like Inferno King Grimm and Nightmare God Grimm or would i run into problems?
What are some good mods to make the game tougher in general?
What is the mod called that show you all of the items on the map, i would like it for my randomizer
randomizer map S
thank you
Does anyone have the damage values for Hollow Point for each gun at each nail level?
does the 1.5 have any randomizer mod? cause if it does icant seem to find it
no
Hey, for using the item sync mod, how should the other players connect? Do they need to build out the same rules/seed as the first?
can somebody help me understand how to use spells in hollow point?
im stuck at soul sanctum right now..
is there any mod that removes markoth from the game entirely leaving no trace of its existence 
You know the random pantheons mod right?
well, I found two bosses of the same type.
and just called it "two brothers fighting"
hey i need help trouble shooting for a multiplayer randomizer im gonna be doing with a friend
anyone willing to help me make sure the mods work lmao
ping me if u are lol
cant really make sure the multiplayer works without a second player lol
When you both connect to the room, whoever clicks start forces those settings onto big players.
what are the limits of skin modding? cause I wanna make an Invincible Fearless Sensual Mysterious Enchanting Vigorous Diligent Overwhelming Gorgeous Passionate Terrifying Beautiful Powerful Grey Prince Zote skin in but he's a lot bigger than the knight
You must adhere to the same size as the original.
Hey! I've recently completed a run through of hollow point, toss me a PM when you're back to being awake and I'll go over it with you.
ive been playing hollow knight for awhile on playstation and i think i wanna get it on pc now because some of the mods look so intresting does anyone have some ideas on fun mods i can use (plz dont suggest randomizers cause i already know about those)
ah too bad
Hollow Point is really fun to me. It's actually surprisingly well balanced and isn't an instant i win button 95% of the time (though radiance does not enjoy 7.62mm) and the changes to spell casting are sometimes frustrating but ultimately really fun 90% of the time.
whats hollow point :?
Give Ghost an AK47
Mod name: Hollow Point

I'm trying to produce more videos in 2020 as well as bring back Sig and Tessa. All money from Patreon will go towards hiring editors, voice actors and animators to help make this a reality! If you enjoy my work and want to ...
woa
note that the video uses an old version of the mod
new version adds classes and a retooling of the spell system (adding the Adrenaline system)
I got 100% completion in about 20 hours of gameplay with the mod, but didn't clear all the pantheons or beat NKG so I still have plenty of content to go.
I also... kind of know hallownest pretty well though.
if i cant make the knight zote can i make zote the knight?
Hi guys! Does anyone know where to find that list of checks that you haven’t gotten yet? I know it exists but idk how to find it
?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/```
@young shale go to the save files directory and open the RandomizeHelperLog.txt
(That shows the list of checks you haven’t gotten but the Randomizer thinks you can get to)
Thanks
What do I do if my file path is in storage (D:)
The same thing
Appdata is a “hidden folder,” iirc
That doesn’t mean I know how to access it myself, I just know that it’s hard to access 
Tami, we both now how dumb I am, any chance you could give me an in depth guide to the location of the file
(seriously tho where tf is this thing lol)
nvm, just use windows + R and paste this %APPDATA%..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\ then u get it
where can i find customknight skin challenges?
They aren't done anymore
oh ok :(
I guess if you wanted you could make your own
but that'd involve making a skin that's good enough for people to want to do the challenge for ofc
man I wish I could make skins
what about a godtamer skin and the weavers are the beast
everytime they move they role
roll*
mini godtamer would be fun.
that would be fun yeah
with the weavers as baby versions of the beasts
with customknight2 you might be able to just use the actual godtamer sprites
custom knight 2?
plus some custom sprites for the animations ofc
yeah, I don't know if it's out yet or not but it exists in some capacity
cool
or maybe I'm wrong and it doesn't exist idk 
i tried renameing the sprites of a charecter into bf in fnf
but it was compleatly offcreen lol
offscreen*

can i get a skin mod for console?
no
Can you get mods on xbox
No
Oh
Steam and GoG only
is downpatching to 1.4 still required?
is there a difficulty mod thats not as shit as the Hell mod
is the onikiri skin still aviable?
Most likely not since the skin challenges message was unpinned
tears
I will pay someone to replace the P5 music with the Jojo's openings
Specifically the Part 3 openings + Overdrive
It is not
I can't seem to find the impossible any% mod on the 1.4 modloader
what does glorious combo do
is it cheating to use benchwarp for qol
hm
yeah acc i dont care what counts as cheating
ill just use benchwarp cus its annoying to get from place to place
and im at endgame so its not like im skipping any challenge so i wouldnt count it cheating
\ cheating is good and righteous actually when the rules of the game as originally designed aren't enjoyable for you
cheating is subverting rules to gain an unfair advantage and even tho im technically subverting rules i am not getting any unfair advantages so i dont count it as cheating
either way its a video game it dosent matter lmao ill just do what i wanna
Are there any mods I should implement for a first play through of the game or would it dilute the first time experience of the game?
Can anyone tell me where the Geo Chest inside Weavers den is?
If you’re standing where weaversong is, cdash to the left and there’s a breakable wall
(You can also make it across the gap with dash and wings)
Hot damn, why is that chest so heavily hidden
Both the wall being breakable isn't shown, and the platforming is kinda fucked too
Thanks Flib 
I would recommend playing with no mods
There's another hidden area behind that was, too.
A hidden, hidden area.
Ok, thank you very much for the insight!
have anybody experienced not being able to do three heals from full soul?
Check your focus_MP amount using either QoL mod on 1.4 or More Saves on 1.5
Is there a mod that turns the lumafly lantern into a companion that floats around you? Or a mod that adds pets that stay near you?
I was working on an ai that can be reused for pets a while back, I’ll see if I can implement it in a CustomKnight like way that lets you make your own pets
I have QoL, how do I check it?
Open save file with problem, make the game save, close game, navigate to save files location in file explorer or whatever it’s equivalent is for your operating system, open user#.json in a text editor such as notepad (# is the save slot number, 1-4 from top to bottom)
Was working on a Shade Knight-like skin a few months back
I don't have Photoshop anymore, so it's unlikely to continue... (´ ~ ` ")
not sure where to ask this, but do mods have any effect on steam achievements and or negative effects on pre-existing save files?
if you use a mod on a pre existing file it can sometimes screw with some of the settings and make stuff like ur focus take longer or stuff, as long as you dont use the mod on a save that you wanna keep safe, it will be fine. IDK about achievements though
And from my knowledge HKMP doesnt have any bad effects so you could always start with HKMP
thanks
i think i just soft locked my game
i am doing a randomiser, with randomise focus on
i have yet to find focus, but to beet the game i need to focus.....
mostly i'm finding this funny, and dont have many other places to share my funny moment......
On steam it shouldn’t affect anything, on gog they’re disabled
\ you've probably just missed a door or a check somewhere. You could check the spoiler log
\ that would tell you where Focus is and then you could work out routing from there
Ya, I know I have whole swaths of the map unexplored, but I couldn't exactly get out of the fight, nor would it let me bring up the menu to bench warp
I had to exit out of the game entirely to get out
Now I'm seeing if I can find anything in hive
Mostly just laughing that focus is required to beat the game
doing a randomizer run and this is was my first item. I'm scared to end up in the crossroads now
and now things are even more cursed
aint no way i have gotten all mask shards in an item randomizer!
there weren't any cursed settings actually on

I like Randomiser mainly
Doing my first randomizer for the game (also I guess my first randomizer ever) and it's a blast
What exactly does the "World Sense" do, though?
shows game completion percentage
Cool
Yo I’ve been having issues after a reinstall with getting mods to work again if anyone would be able to help me out with some troubleshooting my girlfriend probably won’t kill me lol
Some background. Basically was setting up a Bluetooth controller since the other one was crapping out and somehow managed to pooch the mods and it’s gone back to vanilla. I’ve tried reinstalling and installing mods and skins again but to no avail.
You need to reopen the mod installer and that's all
See if anything is listed as out of date and click the orange box to update it if it is
Still nothing. If it makes a difference I’m trying to use the 1.4.3.2 version. Is there a newer one that might help? Sorry I’m pretty new at modding lol
are you using both a 1432 game patch and installer?
Yes
and the api is enabled on the installer?
does the mods option show up in the game in options
It installs the mod folder in the steam folder but nothing in the game
where is 1.5 patch installer
does anyone know if Jingle's fast travel mod works with custom maps? the ones for WP and godhome
It doesn't afaik
Is there any cool map art mods out there?
I'm really new to modding and I haven't finished my first playthough and didn't want to go too far with mods and I wanted a cool map art mod
map art? 
found this image from google
was wondering if there was a mod that makes it look like that
or changes the look of the normal map \
Anyone know how to mess with safari source code a bit?
I know this is for modding but I need a lil help for something
\ the problem is that map is definitely not closely proportional enough to actually put pins and stuff on for in-game use, and to custom-draw a map that would be detailed enough for that purpose would be a huge endeavor because of the size of the game world
is this from a mod? i just found this title screen and thought it was funny
is there a mod to play as nosk?
what qol mods should i install
|| it’s an Easter egg in debug mod ||
QoL and benchwarp
quick question, at what date does custom knight gets released to the public?
I mean its first release
The moment I think "hmmm I wanna play the randomizer" hollow knight gets an update incredible
You can still play it
can any fellow mac users report how well/poorly mods run on m1 macbooks? I've been playing vanilla hk on my friend's pc but want to start playing around with rando once I buy a new laptop, but idk how feasible that is realistically
ty lol
its already in mod installer 👍
can anyone identify this skin?
ive noticed fireborn using legacy quickslash to beat anyrad, so would it be considered cheating if i just gave myself a charm notch to account for not having legacy quick slash?
you do you tbh
I mean I'm asking the earliest first release of custom knight
Fyremoth
thanks!
Lqs is cheating anyways so
so I am trying to download the mod installer and it keeps telling me I need the most recent stable version of hollow knight to use it, but there is no update on steam, what do I do?
check pins in #archived-modding-help
any ideas on what mods i should use for a randomizer run
i wasnt planning on randomizing rooms mostly items but should i do charm notch cost/enemies
did they add rando mod to scarab yet?
no, youll have to downpatch to 1.4 
you can manually add HKMP to 1.4 installer with the 1.4 version which is pinned in #archived-modding-help
I cant get Custom Knight to work, it just loads the default.. Installed it via Scarab and I also have the files in the right folder
Is it compatible with the latest version?
A. #archived-modding-help
B. Scarab mods are all Latest version, yes
C. Did you go to the Custom Knight menu in the Pause Menu > Options > Mods > CK
I fixed it somehow with resetting the global settings, but thanks for the help 
Does anyone know what this check inside the black egg temple is for rando?
It's the last thing on the map for me to gather
its the check inside the black egg at the bench i think
It's World Sense (which is part of Major Items and/or Lore Tablets, iirc)||If you have both, it'll only count once, but it''ll be a check for either option)||
oh didnt know world sense was a major item, guess its true that you learn something new everday 
Guess Im unable to get all grubs this randomizer save then
Only check remaining for me ingame rn
if that's the only check left you should be able to get it right? (this is assuming you have 3 dreamers)
Nope, next to bench there is no sparkle item. I picked up the shiny next to it a little while ago
have you also done white palace? there could be checks there depending on what settings you're using
Only check inside white palace should have been the Kingsoul check, I disabled the lore and soul totems
Unless Path of pain has a check which isn't shown on my mapmod
if i'm correct path of pain doesn't have a check, that would be brutal 
how i'm reading it you already have the kingsoul check then?
Yep
then i'm afraid i can't help you any further, sorry 
Not like it matters that much, I got 100% completion even without the last grub
ah, that's good then
but damn 100% in a randomizer
doubt i'll ever be able to do that
You can check RandomizerHelperLog to see what you have in-logic to get.
It's in your saves folder
On windows, you can also run this script to see any of your Rando logs:
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/835442768008183838/864188710522191963/Log_Finder.bat
According to the helper log, I got all Reachable item locations
Which is weird, considering I only ever found 45 Grubs
It's possible that your seed had a broken grub
There is at least one broken grub location
possible two?
That aside, you don't need max grubs for all reachable items-- you only need enough to get all Grub Father rewards

Yeah, I have all grub rewards
Same with every other vendor/collectible
I mostly wanted the steam achievo for 46 Grubs
Then why not play a vanilla Elegy% run 
Or augmented vanilla, because going back to vanilla after playing modded 
SmolKnight Elegy% 
Save editing also exists
Hi, my spritepacker doesn´t open, i restarted pc but nothin happend, why it can be?
hum quick question what is the mod to play multiplayer
hkmp
kk ty
is it in the modinstaller2 ?
okok ty
That looks quite cool ngl
beautiful !!
I am giving up hope with one last question
is there gonna be a randomizer on the latest patch
what skin is that?
yes, randomizer 4 is just not out yet
hope ungiven up
i wish i could just ungive my love to my father who left me like that lol
My skin that i´m making, Styled Knight
I'm trying a bow
really fucking cool knight
could I get a download link for the revek mod?
I thought it was on a mod installer? If not it’s probably in the description of a YouTube vid on it
hmm, I can't seem to find it in the modinstaller
and the only person I know uses it is crankytemplar and they haven't linked it
Is there a list on what all the mods do?
thanks, i improved it, look
What do u think?
randomiser moment
(finally)
Hi. Is there maybe a modding tutorial series you guys would recommend?
Just go to modding help and read the pinned comment, most videos are really outdated
I need to recolor the red to make it more dark and less intense bc it´s too much brilliant, but i´m improving it
I think some shading would maybe do it instead of a full recolour
(Which I know is more work)
The brilliant red stands out against the rest of the world and makes the character feel like a stranger.
OMG!!!this is sooooo cute!!!! love it!
my new skin
recolored
This looks really good
Been thinking about making my own skin, so I thought I'd ask some of the questions I have here
Am I able to change to textures of the soul orb as it fills up or am I limited to just when it is full?
Just when full at the moment
Thanks
hey when I’m playing with mods it seems that shade soul often glitches where I can’t use it anc abyss shriek has it where it doesn’t stall in air. Is this cuz of custom knight I feel like it may be?
unlikely
it seems that it only occurs with skins so that was my thought
did you have multiplayer mods?
Do you have a preview anywhere? I'm on mobile and want to see 
Randomiser seed gave all 3 dreamers in Dirtmouth lmao
Is there any 1.5 mod that lets you slow down the timescale of the game?
Debug
Hello, my custom knight isn't working but all other mods are does anyone have a fix? I have tried reinstalling
yeah that looks great
and this is also an amazing skin
how do you fix the "this sprite has modified differently" thing
sprite packer isn't letting me pack things
Is there a pale king skin?
yep
can someone link me the skin file for the christmas skin by magegi please
thats insane
help me sprite paker not working
A. This is a very nice skin 
B. FYI, there's a Red Square left behind in the "pickup" animation
previews here! only got old pics here so the gg hud is actually lifeblood-themed
looks amazing
heres my skin in progress
i am still working on the modified differently error
can anyone help me fix the error?
\ is there a directory of skins people have made that can be browsed anywhere?
Are you unable to get the Betrayal achievement with the randomizer mod?
Which is betrayal?
Getting Zote killed by the Vengefly king
Normally he dies after you pick up the claws, but he was at both deepnest and vengefly king during my randomizer run just now
Yeah, you cannot
\ I don't know for sure but I'd guess it's to prevent you from getting locked out of checks
It's called Neglect, FWIW
Not betrayal
You could pick up claw early and then never be able to get the church VK holds
Or the one zote has later
\ talking about this makes me want the Precepts of Zote randomizable
\ defeat one of the dream bosses and pick up the check only to get
\ "Precept Fifty-Six: 'Do Not Dream'. Dreams are dangerous things. Strange ideas, not your own, can worm their way into your mind. But if you resist those ideas, sickness will wrack your body! Best not to dream at all, like me."
I just completed ""Hell" Mode" Mod
Hey, I have heard that a boss health bar mod exists but I cant see it on the ModManager list
I found one that is for all enemies
but I want only for boss fights
so... does a mod for boss health bars exist
Download normal enemy hp bar and in the global settings make the non boss health bar scale 0
global settings?
After you download mod and open the game with mod installed, a global settings file will be generated which you can edit settings in
It can be found in saves folder

I want to get a mod for making some bosses harder in god home (specifically absrad but really any boss) so does anyone know a good mod to make certain bosses harder
Hello, would anyone be able to help make a mod that involves playing as different bugs?

These are the current things I have made
I think it'd be cool to have a custom bug Mod
It’d be way too tedious to get all 57 checks from zote tho 

Will this skin be available for download once it’s finished?
Hey, yes, and im thinking to make diferent color versions
and i will to make a trailer too
Ooh, neat!
i need time to make it but i wanna make a great skin
maybe not the best, but a nice skin
and original
i think that i got it
\ I would think that would be one of the more exciting moments of a run to get to
\ so many checks one after another, like standing at a slot machine. You might get nothing. Or your patience might be rewarded if you stick with it for just one more
uh how do you fix the other person in hkmp not moving for you.. and you arent moving for them
Follow the procedure properly
for the itemSync mod, if im running my own server, do I have to set-up a itemSync server, and a multiplayer server for hkmp if I want to use that?
and where can I find the files for those?
because I have successfully set up a simple hkmp server
but wanted to use itemsync as well
\ I think you have to find the "Dirtmouth Stag" item, although I'm ready for someone to correct me there. But unless you're on room randomizer it shouldn't matter since you can Benchwarp across the door
ah ok thanks
and also let me know if this belongs in another channel
how do i see what I have access to?
cuz I'm missing something right now but I don't know what

mild ones
News about my skin, here is
Stuff that's slightly less obvious, but not too hard, and does not fit into the other categories.
i was playing rando when i found this
makes you drop geo whenever you get hit
also has a setting to kill you if you get hit without any geo
yup
Alright
Make a pr with edits to the ModLinks.xml file. Instructions on editing it are in the file iirc, otherwise ping me
I got news again about my skin, walking in towns animation completed, i´ll show u
Nice. The head, bow and body look a bit static but I like it
looks really nice
maybe, i´ll take a look tomorrow
check hood laces
Oh. Yeah. Those move. Still, feel like a bit more movement would add a lot.
It’s worth nothing that I have only made ugly drawings in my life though
me too, i´m bad drawing, this design its thanks to redesign and fix that designs again and again and again
i think im improving my draw skills doing this, bc i was like a 8yo child at drawing
PD: im making the skin with a mouse, not in a graphic tablet
but i think i will not change this animation bc it´s the animation to walking in secure zones, it´s not the same movement as running through the map, its more relaxed and slow
so i´ll make move movement in the running animation
under the hood is the bug knight's head just that shape or is the little point at the top a fabric tenting effect? bc a little bit of wiggle or bend to the hood in some place where it's not tight against the exoskeleton would help break up the static-ness of the top half of the sprite
you don't have to do that
but yeah just a pixel or two of wiggle/flop on places with tenting fabric will do a lot to communicate motion
oh fuck me
so it's just flat between the "ears"
I mean it doesn't matter that much. The fabric won't move enough to reveal the shape under it. It just matters that there's room for it to move at all
i mean its like a hare`s head
im watching it has a visual bug in the top of the horns too
ill try to fix it all tomorrow
hearing u analizing the skin means to me you like it xD
yeah I don't think it's broken. It looks really good. This isn't a "fix" thing, it's just a little tweak to make it slightly better
his forehead is curved up
like a hare bone head or smething like that type
i think i`ve wrote that bad
ye something like that but with horns instead ears
do u wanna see the first sprite i made?
sure
in-game was thrash, literally had no sense, but i redesigned again and again
and it has changed
yeah it has, the newer one is definitely better, but that doesn't mean where it started was bad
the different mask cracks/markings you tried are interesting
but I guess the ones that aren't symmetrical wouldn't work with flipping the sprite
u see the first hare insipiration there
mhm
when i finished this, i wanted to change the weapon, maybe a scythe bc of the agresive appareance, but in that moment i have seen the archer of the forest style in my mind, and i thought,: yo an skin like that doesn´t exist, its original...ill give him a bow, now ill change the top lane of the hood to give him more forest appareance..
and more changes
the color was a problem till i resolved, bv color was always out of tune of hk
till i found the perfect red
are you planning to use the bow in any animations?
maybe the Crystal Dash charge-up could be like drawing back a crystal arrow
maybe, i don´t know, i mean, basic attacks animation has no emphasis on the weapon, just in the visual curve, it has just 1 frame with the weapon, the last frame, with the weapon at the final of the cut, so it´s ok if i make him hit with the bow
i thought about the crystal dash charge, instead that white smoke, an arrow rain
were are you from, mate?
US, east coast
oh okay
spain
so, i got an amazing idea for descending dark but it´s hard to draw
Grubberfly's Elegy could be your big chance to actually let the player shoot arrows at enemies, lol. That's the only ranged attack I can think of in the game
lol true
I guess maybe some of the Nail Arts
ye, i will to see, i need to make the "easy" animations first
yep, i can´t draw all what i want without order because later there is no connection between the styles and visuals
i need to connect all, that´s my style
yeah, the basic animations is what everything needs to blend back into when the animations are over
makes sense
ofc, i got an idea to descending dark, drawing a deer head of green light above the knight, but i´ll wait first
to decide
like so forest
style
but the suit it´s red
so i need to see
before nothing, the easy animations
Alex, the other person on this account who's talked here about randomizers a lot, uses a " \ " on its messages, has been thinking about trying to make a skin inspired by Celeste
that´s interesting and hard bc of the pixel
yeah, it's talked about that
but we got a Dead cells skin and its a bit pixelated
whether to lean into artistic dissonance with the surroundings or try to make it fit in
hk
either way what's it's talking about isn't just making Maddie but making kind of a bug version of Maddie
makes sense, could be posible
or
an astronaut skin, with the white suit
and galactic visuals
I thought there might have already been a Celeste skin? Might be imagining things though
well if there is and you find it again definitely send it our way
hey i got a question about archer knight
do you think attack hits could be the same color as the bow?
or maybe another
like a white/red
I think it's worth trying
it´s not an amazing visual color but makes sense
you could think about all the areas of the game and the background colors it needs to contrast with
ye, i can use the same brown, and maybe
a little darker in the same visual
both
be like
ç
or maybe just using a diferent color to make it more estetic
and not brown
well i
I'll try in due time
could do a brownscale with some brighter orange and deep red highlights running through it
ye i thought it too
im scared about how to make the spells visuals, it´s the most visual changes and it will need time to make it nice
but well, no pressure
every day more ppl want to know about the skin, that`s feels good
its like ppl rly like archer knight
im looking to change the name to something related to the bow and the forest, some spiritual, like kindred of LOL, you know
i will read some forest creature´s mythology to find another name maybe xd
yeah, just be conscious of how you use any words from historically marginalized cultures
look into terms related to archery
there are a lot of cool words related to bows and arrows, fadeout, fletching, bowyer, nib, F.O.C., overdraw...
one of my partners is into archery so I hear about it sometimes
and there's always new cool words I don't understand, lol
okay mate
Cause it's cool
someone should make a hiveblood themed skin
it exist
whats it called?
thanks
alrighty
Archer Knight..Arrow Knight
Bowslinger
But Archer Knight attracts attention and encourages download and try it
thats maybe i will not change the name in case I can't find anything
Archer it´s simple but so effective
mhm
well i will go to sleep, im tired, i will fix the little bugs of the walking animation and start another
gn guys
goobye
i still think someone should make a skin like this
and
the grub has physics and that stuff
What I really hate about this installer is the fact I now have the ABILITY to cheat is getting tempting, I don’t wanna cheat but these fucking ghosts are getting on my nerves
Has anyone made a knight - hornet mod , but the attacks are actually based off the silksong trailer?
Daughter of Hollownest. I think you can look it up and there should be YT videos linking the download for the mod
You can play the "Silksong: But not really" mod + the Daughter of Hollownest Custom Knight skin
The mod is on Scarab
Thing with HollowPoint
why when i try to shoot downward in the air, it goes diagonal?
it's annoying when i try to like half-hover over a pit and it goes diagonal and i fall in
Toggle your shooting directions (tap quick cast iirc)
Pause and look at controls
god this not really silksong mod is fucking cursed
I love it so much
I take my words back, it synergises with the golden godhome mod making the player hornet cloak also golden
which is really cool in my opinion
Doesn’t that mod not work with skins or am I thinking of another mod
I think they mean the spell reskins
Oh yeah
actually now that I think about ut
they got it so the game plays a track on certain actions which should be easy to hook into
meaning it could in the future be possible to have custom knight skins also have custom sound effects

how do i fix choosing the wrong file in CustomKnight.Creator
it says that the directory is wrong but doesn't let me fix it

hey im looking for a celeste skin
is that like
possible to get
or what
ive been looking for a very long time
also my sapphire skin doesnt work
Hi, I just downloaded the multi-player mod. Does anyone know the server so I can join?
I heard something about randomizer being added to scarab is this true?
It's not yet on scarab, but there is a version made for 1.5.
#randomizer pins
If you get a bug where you start the game and it's just a black screen with just your UI, use Benchwarp and just click warp and it will fix it.
cuteee
I have precisely 0 experience making mods. I don't know where to start, but I have a specific quality-of-life mod idea that I would like to be able to design. Would anyone be able to point me in a direction to start learning? I just want to make all the collectables for 112% show up on my map until I collect them, like how collectors map works for grubs.
#archived-modding-development would be a good start, or the modding server
apparently benchwarpfix is fucked
There's actually an existing mod that's supposed to do something like that (VanillaMapMod on Scarab) - if it doesn't work for what you want it to do, I'm sure if you ping the creator of the mod he might consider adding it
oh?
randomizer 3.5?
no way
I couldn't see a randomizer in scarab before at all
oh fuck yeah
it works for 1.5
@lean jolt ohhhhhh neat! Thank you!
looks really nice so far
@tiny oxide #archived-modding-development is strictly for development
nevermind it fucking doesn't
oh oge
thank
but
how do i change my gun in hollowpoint?
charms
do u have flukenest on?
what is that?
angry
What version of hollow kinght is the modinstaller for?
Mod installer 1: 1.4.3.2
Mod installer 2: 1.4.3.2
Scarab: 1.5
hey does anyone want to do an online randomizer ?
Hey are there /any/ 1.2.2.1 skins out there?
I remember hearing about one but having some trouble finding it
idk
All I know of is white cloak/lightbringer
Why do you need it?
Do you know where I can find that? I’m an all skills runner and for practice runs I wanna have a diff skin for a few reasons some aesthetic some legitimate
Alright
Either 1. You can see if there’s a version of lightbringer for the ModdingApi in 1.2.2.1 or 2. You can explore the edited asset files that come with the non ModdingApi lightbringer for 1.2.2.1
Alright I’ll look around thanks
Oh also you can find the non ModdingApi version on nexus, an ModdingApi one would probably be in old GitHub comments
is there an item rando for the latest patch
The scarab closes, how do I solve it?
Randomizer 3 should be on scarab now
okkeee thanks you
can confirm rando 3.5 is on it
Finally
perfect time to finally start modding for me lmao
Guess it took a bit to update
This is my first time modding hk so im glad its around
64
We only need to speak in one channel, plus that wasn’t aimed at you
I was so excited to do a rando run but I just remembered I have so much homework
depresso expresso
I was talking about like ,
Playing actually as hornet with a full model of hornet (not short)
And making vengeful spirit be the pins she uses in the trailer for silksong , make (the aspid [glowing womb or something ]charm)
Be the red bug tool that she uses in the trailer , stuff like that
SS:BNR does make you the hornet model
Wats that
