Unity Completed Honey Select 2 [DX R16] [Illusion]

[slammingsalmon]

You aren´t the first one having troubles with only upgrading. It seems sometimes the old game is conflicting with new base mods.
I myself ALWAYS making a full clean download/install.

To add: after install first launch the game out of the box to see everything is loading correctly, afterthen transfer you personal stuff (following Sykosis´s guide) from your old game.

thank you. doing the install as i post this. one thing: in my "mods" folder, should i have any folders that say "sideloader"? i am aware of the sideloader download for Studio. i only play the main game. i downloaded on only the BR12 game by itself. these folders are in my previous install. can i delete them or are they just part of the main game mods?

edit: i double checked the "mod" folder in new install before copying over and those Sideloader folders where there. i suppose they are required.

Am I missing some step in the installation process? For the life of me I can't get Zipmods to load in-game. I keep getting the outdated zipmod error and a character that looks like an eldritch horror.

I unzipped the main file, unzipped the sideloader file, updated everything through the launcher (except one component that was not recommended to update) and ran the registry .bat. From what I understand I don't need to do anything else and it should work?

I even tried to manually install a zipmod through the manager but it just told me the zipmod was already installed.

This is BetterRepack R11. The non-steam version.

Some of the sideloaders are for the main game, it's not specific to studio. If I recall they are labeled differently. For example "Sideloader Modpack - Maps (HS2 Game)" and "Sideloader Modpack - Uncensor Selector" are used by the main game. While "Sideloader Modpack - Studio" is used by studio. Some mods also include a version of it for both and are just add by default.

Good, I have a problem, do you know how I can remove the dark skin? I tried editing the skin and changing the body style, it remains the same

 

[Powergenerator]

I'm reinstalling the game (the 54 gb version without th studio part), can i move the studio file from my old installation? If possible i don't want to redownload the over 100 gb part.

It could be that you need to have Graphics Mode on. Press F5 then select the SSS tab, ensure Enabled is ticked and Chara further down on that tab is selected (for Character).

To precise Skeltoms answer:
all the Sideloader Modpacks are for the game and have to stay exactly in "mods" as your screenshot shows. This is important cuz on this place the update function (in InitSetting or KK-Manager) is looking for (game) mods to be updated.
Only the Sideloader Modpack-Studio is for StudioNEO - if only a few files included you can leave it there, but it´s correct you don´t need the big 150GB [Optional] Sideloader Modpack Studio to download for the game. As the name says it´s ONLY for StudioNEO.

One word to MyMods: here you store all extra zipmods besides the BetterRepack you download from anywhere for yourself. In this place they won´t be touched by the update function from Sideloader, otherwise they may be deleted when running Sideloader update.

This Sideloader update you should run after your install and testing correct game starting, cuz meanwhile some mods may have been updated against the versions in downloaded BetterRepack.
This updating you should run from time to time to always have the latest versions of (game) mods. But don´t forget to deselect the Studio Modpack section before starting the update.

Also the Extra Maps are mostly for Studio and not usable for the game.

Yes you can - but makes only sense if you work also with StudioNEO.
And in this case you can update these studio mods via the Sideloader update function, if you want.

This looks like you have missing a special face zipmod needed for the character you´re loading.
Some creators are packing the face sculpting and makeup into a zipmod and you need this zipmod to download in addition to the card. These are the mods you can see in Face Types as a thumbnail picture or "use with card" and named with the character name.

Though there are several character zipmods included in BetterRepack you may have a card outside these zipmods.

Post a screenshot of the missing message or share the card here so we can test what is needed.

Nice! (I use mostly studio).
The folder i suppose is that named "mods".

The folder you want to transfer should be "Sideloader Modpack - Studio" and go into "mods", where the other Sideloader Modpack folders are.

Does "Sideloader Modpack - User Data" is for Studio ?

 

[wnnjwllj]

If I want to update my BetterRepack version where do I start the .exe from?

Do I need to put it in a certain folder first?

For the purpose of demonstrating I picked one that is shown to be in what I think is the correct place in the folder screenshot.
Some assets seem to load without textures as well, as shown here.

When the character is loaded in 5.png I loaded a card, but I don't think it's the same zipmod.

Thanks for the help.

 

[wnnjwllj]

Do I really need to update through every version of BetterRepack?

Or can I just get the newest one?

User Data is including cards and coordinates (clothes cards) for the game.

If you have an old version you can upgrade it from here

You must be registered to see the links

, but you have to do each single step til you´re at R12.
Each step increases the chance something get weird and your game doesn´t work.

Best way is always to download the last version from here

You must be registered to see the links

and make a clean new install.

Your Aerith.zipmod is in the right place.

As I see in pic 4 u try to use a special face type on standard head - this doesn´t work. The Aerith face (it´s a zipmod) is only for use for Aerith card and nothing else.
All these skin types are only waiting until you load this special character card (as I showed you above) and not usable to create a new character.
In pic 5 we see your character Aerith is loading well, but u apply another top for her. Search here for Aerith
