Installing CustomKnight

You can acquire a Custom Knight release either by using this lumafly magic link or by downloading a zip from the releases page and installing manually by following these instructions.

Note : if manually installing you must install Satchel yourself

  1. Extract the .zip file.
  2. Place the output folder under the Mods/CustomKnight directory: Typical installation directory for your OS :

Windows

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\Mods\CustomKnight\

Mac

~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/hollow_knight.app/hollow_knight_Data/Resources/Data/Managed/Mods/CustomKnight/

Linux

~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/hollow_knight_Data/Managed/Mods/CustomKnight/

  1. Open the game and load a save. (may take a while on first run as the mod is extracting the default skin)
  2. Pause the game and Use the menu on the right to select a skin.

Note : You can always go to Settings > Mods > CustomKnight & choose your desired skin / settings.
