Rest well soldier, you did good.

[ClosetOfDoom]

Okay, big vent here.

 

So, you know how Hollow Knight OG has like no NSFW mods whatsoever?

 

Well, the only one that could exist doesn't yet because of the sheer scope and scale of the project. Like, they don't just want to make little mods here and there for each character, or even a group of characters. Instead, they wanna lewdify literally every character possible (including many of the feral bugs), also change up the dialogue a bit, and release it all at once. And because of that scale, it will literally take probably 10 years to finish, and that's if they don't lose interest by then.

 

This is a team, mind you, but a very small team, like 3 or 4 people working on it.

 

It's crazy, because they could be working on smaller-scale goals like one little character per mod, or even a group of characters per mod, slowly expanding as they go, but no, they wanna do all or nothing.

 

Anyway, my greatest fear for this project is that it will likely never get finished due to loss of interest from developers, as they will have likely moved onto other projects and such.

I suggested they could do some little mods here and there to ease the burden of doing the whole thing at once, but they consider that "low quality".

 

Which is crazy.

 

Small scale =/= low quality.

 

Thing is, unless they stick it out for 10 years, it is highly unlikely to be finished unless they lower the scope for now, but if they heed my suggestion and just put out character mods one at a time, they would at least have something to show for all the work they put into it, even if the whole thing went south eventually.

 

So, is it just me, or is this project legit just doomed to fail?

To be honest, I am impressed there's even a WIP porn mod of Hollow Knight 1, its amazing how horny people are about this series ngl. though the way they are tackling it sounds like pure insanity i wish them the best of luck since i personalky like ghost/whatever elese they call it more than hornet

 

i don't think "doomed to fail" but more "why the whole game just pour effort into the protag first and slowly go from there" but that's just me imo

 

so thankful Miclbero worked so hard and gave us all a half done sexy hornet mod for free i hope theres any progress we can see on that mod

Okay, I just tried this one, and so far the fluidity for the finished ones is incredible. There are still so many sprites missing, but this is definitely the model to follow, for those up to the task of finishing it.

Could you tell which steps to follow in order to try it? ;_; Pretty please?

Download another finished mod. Replace the correct files with these two. Delete the rest in that mod.

[Anthur]

It work'd, thank you.

 

It's unfinished but it already looks incredible indeed!

I placed the BepInEx folder in the game root, installed the Customizer mod, and replaced the 2 original images with the updated ones. The window that pops up on other games that use BepInEx doesn't show up and Hornet's sprites haven't changed. I followed the instructions exactly as they are listed on the troubleshooting page. What am I doing wrong?

[Anthur]

For the sprite replacement part, I downloaded Purple Knight mod, then used that mod as base. So I changed the atlast 0 and atlas1 to the sexy Hornet. 

 

 

Do notice that after installing Customizer, the mods for customizer themselves go in Hollow Knight Silksong Data, inside a Mods folder you have to create.

[Anthur]

Try floating for example, since that's a sprite that is changed. Normal standby animation for example is not changed yet.

There's no window to customize, it's not that advanced yet.

 

What you need to do now is go to Hollow Knight Silksong_Data>Mods>Customizer, then insert the placeholder mod there and extract it (I used Hornet Ruby Coat).

 

Next, put the two sprite sheets from here in the correct folder within the mod's folders (Hornet Ruby Coat>Knight), delete literally everything else in there, folders and files alike, so you should only have the two .png files in the "Knight" folder.

 

Lastly, make sure there is a .txt file entitled "active" inside the Hornet Ruby Coat folder.

 

No one has really given this kind of detailed instruction yet, but the game was only released a month ago, so be patient with folks.

Where can I get the original Hornet sprites?

The instructions I was given was to place the Customizer in the BepInEx plugins folder, this must be why it wasn't working. I'll give that a try, thank you.

[Anthur]

Installation:

1. Install BepInEx 5 with Configuration Manager.

2. Install the Silksong Customizer mod. (Put the Customizer.dll in "Hollow Knight Silksong\BepInEx\plugins\...")

3. Take a customizer mod such as Ruby Coat or Purple Knight. I'll use Purple Knight as a example.

At the Customizer mod, there are extra files. Download the Sample Pack. It says there "To use place the "PurpleKnight" folder inside the Mods/Customizer folder of your game data." 

 

So as you can see, you put the Customizer dll at bepinex plugins folder, but the mods that use customizer go inside Hollow Knight Silksong\Hollow Knight Silksong_Data\Mods\Customizer\

In this case:

 

Hollow Knight Silksong\Hollow Knight Silksong_Data\Mods\Customizer\PurpleKnight\

 

At PurpleKnight you'll find lots of folders. Remove everyfolder except Knight folder. 

 

Inside Knight Folder, there are many files. You need to place there the sexy hornet files you download from here, and rename them to atlas0 and atlas1. So for example instead of "atlas1.png.3f425b4ebf9c9afc62014dc2f8d2cb24.png" it should be called "atlas1.png"

 

Lastly, as ClosetOfDoom said, make sure there is a .txt file called "active" inside the PurpeKnight folder.

I found a mod on nexus named Default Sprites and I believe it has all the in-game sprites, including cloakless hornet. Search up "Default", just to be safe

I'm using that mod as well to mod both cloaked Hornet and her cloakless variant in my game. I haven't done the slab event yet, but I believe it should work out while using the default sprites mod as a placeholder to install both the the sexy hornet files from here and the Curvy Hornet mod from Nexus Mods,

Yeah, I did that as well. Got the awesome files from here and added nipples and vagina to the edited sprites. If I was better at drawing, I'd finish all the sprites that haven't been touched yet.

Here is another new mod that seems very useful for creating new things.

[cyberFUCKer]

Dont understand any of that really but seems like it will be an essential utility

Wait... where can I find this WIP?

There's no WIP, not even a smaller mod yet. That's the whole reason I started the vent, lol.

 

If you wanna find the Discord server, search "NSFW Hollow Knight Mod", and there should be a reddit post with a link to it.
