How to modify save file to get Grimm Troupe back

[chibivale]

Hi guys! So.. I chose by mistake the banishment route for the Grimm Troupe DLC, and I'm feeling too bummed out. I'd like to meddle with the save files in order to reverse it but I honestly don't know how. I have a macbook. Does anyone know how to help? Please ; _ ;

- nevermind, I think I have solved the problem -

I want Marissa back, accidently dream nailed her when I had hit Millibelle there.

Aw no :( is it more cruel to leave the ghosts there, or to get their essence? I feel you though. It's easy to make a mistake. I feel like a cheater but I want my dream boss and my child back lol

You shouldn't feel sorry. From the Dream Warrior dialog, they seem to pass on to the next life when you dream nail them.

nah dude, they just get sucked into your dream nail. cloth is the proof. she says "Well now that was something! A true battle of mighty warriors. So intense. So climactic. It's really everything I could have ever hoped for. Thanks for all your help, my friend. For a tiny bug you set a valiant example. We'll meet again, I'm sure of it. Be on my way soon. Nola is waiting and I'm done down here. Just savouring the moment a little longer." if you come back to the room without dreamnailing her, cloth is gone.

Create backups first before any editing.
Try using bloodorca's save editor[bloodorca.github.io], find these lines (Ctrl + F) and try changing them to like this:

"destroyedNightmareLantern": false,
"nymmInTown": false,
"troupeInTown": true,
"divineInTown": true,

You'll probably also need to restore the Grimmchild charm:

"gotCharm_40": true,
"charmCost_40": 2,
"grimmChildLevel": 3,

Let us know if this did the trick. I may have forgotten about something, so tell me if something doesn't work.

Don't forget that in the save file folder there is also a backup save file, which may be before the banishment.

Which file do we use?

You'll naturally want to backup and edit the save file, that you are currently playing on.

Save File locations:

Windows

%USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\

Pro Tip: Copy and paste this code into the folder path bar of the Windows File Explorer window and press Enter to go there instantly (Windows 10). You can also paste it inside the Run window (Windows key + R).
Example path: C:\Users\your-username\AppData\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight

Linux

~/.config/unity3d/Team Cherry/Hollow Knight/

macOS

~/Library/Application Support/unity.Team Cherry.Hollow Knight/

Filenames:

user*.dat — main save file. Where * is a number between 1 and 4, and it is the appropriate save slot inside the game.
user*.dat.bak1 — auto-backup save file.
user*_[game-version-numbers].dat — duplicate save file of the main save file. Serves as a backup after any game update.

If the Nightmare Lantern room is exited after talking to Brumm and before breaking the brazier, Brumm disappears and Banishment becomes unavailable forever.
To make banishment available again, edit "brummBrokeBrazier": false
