#Rando breaking when I quit to menu

I can start a rando just fine and everything seems to work normally, but whenever I quit to the main menu and reload my save file, the game just reverts back to vanilla gameplay. Other mods like benchwarp and debug mod still work, but anything rando related completely disappears. I'm playing current patch on windows through gamepass, and my mods are installed through scarab. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling both mods and HK itself.

ModLog

"ModLog.txt" can be found in the same folder as your save files (you can drag and drop the file into discord)

  • Open Modlog with Lumafly (you should be able to copy and paste it into Discord)
  • Windows: %APPDATA%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\
  • MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/unity.Team Cherry.Hollow Knight/
  • Linux: ~/.config/unity3d/Team Cherry/Hollow Knight/
    Note: some mod installers such as Lumafly have an "Open Saves Folder 📁" button which allows you to find the ModLog easily. Otherwise, follow the steps below:

To get the ModLog on Windows

  1. Press + R
  • Note: is the Windows button, in between Ctrl and Alt on your keyboard
  1. Copy and paste this into it %appdata%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight and hit "OK".
  2. ModLog.txt is in this folder.

To get the ModLog on MacOS

  1. From the Finder, click "Go" in the menu at the top of the screen and select "Go to folder".
  2. Copy and paste this into it ~/Library/Application Support/unity.Team Cherry.Hollow Knight/ and press enter.
  3. ModLog.txt is in this folder.

After you encounter the issue, you'll need to grab your modlog and post it (not the installer log)

#

As a side note though: I'm not sure why you're quitting to the menu? You generally shouldn't need to ever go back to the main menu when playing Rando

#

I think this is what you need, apologies for posting the wrong one first. As for the side note, this problem basically means that if I want to do a rando, I have to do it in one sitting which I would rather avoid

dreamy willow
#

Is it broken when you re-open the game?

#

You just said that it was broken if you go to the menu and then back in

obtuse hinge
#

If I close and reopen the game, it breaks and if I go back to the main menu and reload the save, it also breaks

dreamy willow
#

My first suggestion would be to remove Rope Rando

#

Iirc it has some known bugs, because it was made as someone's test in making a Rando mod

obtuse hinge
#

That hasn't changed anything

#

If it helps this is what it looks like if I reload the save before having left kings pass. When this happens I can't move at all, and none of the controls do anything. All I can do is alt+f4 to close the game

dreamy willow
#

And that was from starting a new file, then quitting to menu and resuming?

#

Can you get the new modlog

#

-# note that your current log isn't in the old modlogs folder

last time i saw something like this happen was flower rando and nerthul just updated alot of their modspalehmm

dreamy willow
#

I can't easily check mod versions right now

obtuse hinge
#

All of my mods should be up to date

dreamy willow
#

Although it could be a bad mod version since it's Scarab

#

?tag lumafly

Lumafly lumaflyicon (formerly Scarab+)

This is a new version of Scarab, that fixes many of the problems with the commonly used version, as well as adds additional community-requested features (filtering by tags, showing new releases, offline mode, shareable mods/mod lists, and modpacks).

Lumafly Reset Commands

These should work on all platforms, as long as you've downloaded Lumafly and run it at least once. (Note: On windows you may need to have run it as Administrator at least once). If you're looking for generic .bat files, use ?tag bats.

🔹Reset Memory
-# Use this if you previously tried a different installer, or Lumafly didn't link to your game correctly.

🔹Force Mods to Update
-# Use this if it seems like you may have out of date mods, such as if you were previously using Scarab.

I've done the reset memory and force update links, and I've deleted scarab and replaced it with lumafly, but nothing's changed. I recently had to reset my computer's OS, is there any chance that's causing the problem somehow?

dreamy willow
#

It shouldn't be.
In the same folder as the modlogs, do you have user#.modded.json files?

obtuse hinge
#

Yes

#

I have a json file and a bak file

dreamy willow
#

And to confirm, they say modded in their name? (Not to be confused with the files that don't say modded)

obtuse hinge
#

They do

(fwiw, Rope Rando is fine now)

my best guess is RandomizerCore.Json is missing or one of RandomizerCore.Json, RandomizerCore and Randomizer 4 has a version mismatch, maybe try uninstalling then reinstalling those 3?

I did some tests and it seems to be caused by Grass Rando, as Neko said it looks really similar to an issue that Flower Rando had a few weeks ago so Nerthul might be able to help with identifying the issue

proud hinge
#

zote only thing I can think of is maybe install HKMirror? there shouldn't be any runtime dependency but I am known for stupidity

lyric sentinel
#

It's already installed cuz I also have MoreSaves

#

(Don't hesitate to ask if you need more logs/save files)

proud hinge
#

GrassRando should have only had logic & sprite changes, is this failing when grass Rando is disabled? since that's probably the only scenario I didn't test 🥴

lyric sentinel
#

I haven't tested with Grass Rando disabled either zote

proud hinge
#

unfortunately I'm at my family's house for Christmas so can't look into it, I'll page @visual girder if you have any idea what this issue is from flowerrando

lyric sentinel
#

I'll try with the previous version of the mod just in case

rich hullBOT
#

It didn't break with the previous version, so tamershrug

proud hinge
#

oh I think I see the problem, damn me for thinking code I wrote in March was good zote

proud hinge
lyric sentinel
#

I should be able to in ~30 min-1h

obtuse hinge
#

Can confirm that uninstalling grass rando and grass core fixed the issue

visual girder
#

Can confirm as well that I had the issue occur with the latest Grass patch

#

From my end I did get a report of Access Rando's latest patch having issues but I haven't really looked into it yet

lyric sentinel
proud hinge
#

alright I will set up the most scuffed build environment alive and release a proper hotfix 🥴

lyric sentinel

Take your time, there's no rush
Also I zipped it on mac so it might contain a file named .DS_Store, a hidden file that macos likes to put a bit everywhere, if you want a zip without it I should be able to generate one
