How to add skins

Download the mod installer. (If you want to know how to do this, I have another guide. Go to my profile and find it.)
Download the custom knight mod.
Go to this link: https://drive.google.com/drive/mobile/folders/1VlXmvI6KT2vzsGItY2w3rHjeCFx8DN0n?usp=drive_open
and download the ZIP files of the skins you want.
Extract the files that you download.
Open the hollow knight game files and go to the mods folder. (My PC > Whatever drive you downloaded hollow knight on > Steam library > Steam apps > common > Hollow knight > Managed > Mods > Custom Knight > Skins.)
Move the folder with the skin in it (Make sure it's extracted!) over to inside the skins folder.
Launch the game and enter any of your save files.
Pause the game.
Press mods.
Click Custom Knight.
Press the arrows on the side of the bar at the top to change the skin file until you find the one you want to use. (The name of the folder is what name will appear in game.)
Click apply.
Enjoy your new hollow knight skin!

Thank you

Hope this helped you, if anything is unclear, please tell me!.

If you could give me a lot of steam points from awards, that would be great too!
Thanks bye

Im just wondering, the Mods folder doesnt exist for me so I probably need to create that manually right?

If it does not work you can try going to [escape menu] > options > mods > custom knight options > advanced > fix skins. It worked for me

There is quick-change bar on the right side of the screen. How do I disable that?

Op missed a folder, it's [Steam apps > common > Hollow knight > hollow_knight_data > Managed > Mods > Custom Knight > Skins.
