What does the AIS-HS2 optional modpack for HS2 DX R3 add?
there are 80GB all in one pack include main game and an OPTIONAL 50GB , what will i do with these 50GB sideloader ? anyone tell me the exact root to use the OPTIONAL , sorry my english not really good
Extract it into the mods folder. I include a readme in the torrent as of R3.1 to explain that :)
It includes mods that are only useful for studio, you can disregard it if you don't use studio
Not sure if you are aware, but gdrive no longer allows downloading of large files (the old tricks no longer work). The gdrive links are basically unusable at this point.
That's the weird thing, it works for some people I get reports of... I am looking into alternatives though, but all services I check have their own problems, so just keep using google for the time being

Is there plugins for this game that adds more positions? (similar to kplug for koikatsu)
No, but the HS2 version of Kplug might once it gets out of the initial stages. It is slowly getting there. He's finally added some of the other unique features like invites. It's called HS2Plug, I know, not very original, but it works.

Hello friends.. Is there any software to create those .Png cards...? please tell me.
Yeah, the game, that's the file type it saves characters, scenes, and outfits as.

After upgrading from DX3.0 to DX3.1, I got into the game and it worked well. Then I changed some of the mod settings in the options menu, because after updating the game, they returned to their default values. Then, after exiting the game, I installed some plugins from the backup folder (push up, beaver, etc). Turning on the game again, I saw that the character sitting on the title screen turned into a huge scary aunt, then entering the character creation mode I found that the game does not see cards in the chara / female folder, and the worst thing is that I cannot turn on the settings menu to try to fix it. I removed all the mods and plugins I just installed, deleted the plugin config files (making a backup), but nothing changed. I really don't want to download the game again, can someone help me with my trouble?

You can use kkmanager to enable/disable any of the mods and plugins outside the game, and in the case of plugins with their own config files kkmanager will let you open the config file and edit it directly. Not as easy as tweaking settings with the UI in-game, but a great alternative when in-game is unavailable.

Can I please ask for some help? I downloaded the [ScrewThisNoise] HoneySelect 2 BetterRepack R3, the 70GB version, have installed it and it is working, version 1.1.3, I can't control the camera with the mouse, and I am not sure what I am doing wrong. In the char create screen the camera works, but I can only zoom in and out, and up and down, playing the game I can't move at all. Also my KK Manager is giving me and error saying "the update data is in a new format" can anyone please help me fix this

I think I see your problem. It appears you downloaded a very old version, with a name that's very similar to the current one. The pack you wanted would be [ScrewThisNoise] HoneySelect 2 DX BetterRepack R3. Note the "DX" in there - it means the DX expansion is included, and pack numbering started over at 1 for the DX packs. The DX 3.1 version just came out a few days ago, that's the one to get, you can find it here:

Select "HoneySelect 2 DX" in the left column as the page defaults to Koikatsu. Grab the torrent version if you can, as it uses single files rather than split archives. The base game is about 30GB, you don't need the whole 70GB+ unless you want all the optional stuff for use in studio (not used in the main game itself).

Thank you so much, I am getting the torrent now, I hope it solves my mouse problem, thanks.

One more question, I found this card on illusion game cards, but it comes with a bunch of mods I don't have, you say the mods are for Studio, which I really don't use that often. How could I find out which mods are associated with this card?

Once the torrent is done make sure you do a clean install in a new directory - don't install over your existing game. Copy (not move) your UserData folder from your old game to the new one. Run initsetting.exe to set up registry entries and such, from there run the updater.

The new install should have all the mods for the card you posted - it loaded for me without problems. BTW, there are lots of mods for the main game, but the 50GB (or however big it is these days) optional mod pack only contains mods for Studio. The part you're downloading has a ton of mods for the main game already included, and the updater can find newer ones as they're released.

I've got a modding question about overlays, hope someone can help!
I am planning to dabble in some texture editing. So far, all of my past attempts were not entirely satisfactory... I wondering whether it is possible to somehow show inside the UV map where certain body parts start. So for example, looking at this UV grid, I can definitely tell where the breasts will be roughly. However, I want to create overlays that start/end precisely at the border of the breasts.
So is there any way to show which triangles belong to which body part (waist, breasts, arms, etc.)? Many thanks in advance!
This isn't exactly what you're looking for, but it might help get the job done. I use the template below, adjusted to the same size as the file you're working with. In material editor load it as the main texture, and you can see where things map out, where your edges are, etc. In photoshop, load that same template as a layer, and you can use the grid to find where your edges should be. Note I didn't adjust the template for that example, so those lines are probably off.

And be sure to check out hun hunter's texture tutorial here: https://f95zone.to/threads/illusion-hs2-studio-neo-chara-maker-help-guides-thread.66252/post-4529656

Thanks again, fingers crossed. Very much appreciated.

Which version/repack is the newest?

I don't really like tinkering with the game but some time ago i played around with the cheats and changed fur model and since then the game started to work slower, i mean the animations were okay, but the white screen between the scenes started taking like 20-30 seconds (it was 5s max before) I got used to it and started downloading some models but idk if that's because i have too many of them, the game freezes (well the music still plays) at the end white screen of every sex scene so i have tio exit it and start again...

so idk if there's a newer version to download from what i have? my folder with the game is called "[ScrewThisNoise] HoneySelect 2 BetterRepack R4"

Yeah, there is, yours is actually VERY old. The newest is DX R3.1, anything without DX is older.

Is the updater stuck on the initial mod listing phase for anyone else?
screenshot_83.png
It's been stuck on this step for over 30 minutes now. Nevermind it works now, guess it was a temporary problem.

Also there are some typos on the dates in the readme and in the other post here. (Wrong year)s

The DL'ed cards are likely using old non-animated uncensors. Load card in maker, and change the uncensor to one of the animated ones with bp in the name, and save. Or set your default unsensor to one of the animated ones in the Uncensor Selector plugin, and you can just set those cards to use the default.
Hey just wanted to let you know that your advice helped. Thank you again :D
