Maybe there will be something on the 29th, but no Kissing Sex position?

Game overall seems kind of rushed because there's various annoyances and signs they cut corners, such as:

  1. Fade transition of most of the actions. Can tolerate for sex scenes, but damn does it get annoying while collecting and the girls' actions in the map.
  2. Weak / slow animations in exploration.
  3. Lack of automatic functions for map-building, making it an extreme chore to create.

They could at least play some good games for petes sake, just so I don't have to criticize the game part while I enjoy their sex content. Furthermore, I hope they don't stick with the VN design of interacting with the girls and instead put effort in animation transition just like in AG3. Would like to have a lot of foreplay actions (hugging, kissing, molesting) without it being locked to sex mode (or heck, just keep the Climax state constantly active).

And thanks EroShane for the mod. It's improved the FPS on my machine (GTX 1080, Ryzen 7 2700X)

Very insightful links giving light to a morbid reality. Deception, coercion, blackmailing, under-age..."They are used and disposed of like products, with long-lasting consequences on their schooling, careers and marriages."

Also I did not know this: "For decades the yakuza have offered services that even the national government approved, albeit not publicly. Japan places a cap on the number of lawyers allowed to practice in the country and the government is known for its reluctance to litigate. In Japan, there is approximately one lawyer per 8,500 people, in the UK there is one lawyer per 900 people, and in the U.S. there is one lawyer per 400 people."

Makes you wonder about some things. Is it safe to assume Illusion is connected with this? For instance, does buying the game entail supporting the industry/Yakuza as a whole or just Illusion?
The situation isn't that binary, and I have no clue if Illusion is connected or not. Probably not as the only utilization would be the actors, and the same actors have been used for the last five Illusion games; that stated the Yakuza stranglehold on the adult industry cannot be overstated, they literally control every aspect of it to a very high degree.

Well, the number of voice actors one can find on Fiver willing to do some short dialogue recordings then a bunch of "Oooo's," "Aaaah's," and other general orgasmic noises is rather low as most will assume you are just a pervert and reject your request when you don't turn over some Emmy award winning scripting...

Because your system is newer and equal, maybe slightly better than mine, ergo you should see all the improvements I made vs the few that some others may actually get to see. So far the number of complaints I have received have been hardware limitations, not my, or even Illusion's janky code. Glad I could be helpful for some... I spent many hours on that across a few weeks...

dudes is the translation good enought to clear the story and UNDERSTAND all what the girls are saying¿
Yes has been for weeks... Is it good enough to develop a lot of meaningful observations of the game content? No... But essentially you are playing an Illusion game and the primary content is having sex with fantasy girls you create... I think the story is left intentionally open ended so you can build and draw your own origin and conclusions.

Basically, you are a survivor of a cataclysmic event and are marooned on a desert island. You encounter a mysterious woman and then some other chick that is a trader of sorts. The first girl is messed up in the head and has trace memories of times before but cannot recollect everything. Through time (as she levels up through your interactions) she recalls more and more. They attribute the island's creation and their own to Shan, but it seems that Shan is not Shan but Shan's robot assistant from before now. Shan seems to hold some key to the knowledge of what happened. Then you find these other girls who also hold bits and pieces of the history at play, BUT ultimately no real lines are ever drawn for you to say, "Aha! So that is what happened." Nope... It just leads you on more and more until eventually you get to the "Housing Island," and leave the "Ruined Island" behind where you build a vast hotel to indulge your perversions on the girls you created in the first place...

The story in a nutshell... Now you have it all... LOL!

As with all Japanese to English translations you need to look at the sentence and ask, who is talking to who and what is being said? Words like I, you, he, she, me, my, mine, yours, etc., are often poorly translated and used incorrectly. This is very common though.

Understandish. I'll just say what the girls are saying and its CONTEXT and what's being translated isn't even kind of 1:1, but you are getting the meat of the conversations most of the time. There's a rather large issue with possessive pronouns and tenses and one of the voices is pretty... sarcastic/sardonic with some of the replies and none of that is really coming across but you are getting the girls' general feeling and intent most of the time.

Anyway to save the character from studio when the scene is loaded?

EroShane gave your mod a try but it looks like it would not load according to bepinex logfile. complaining about a missing manifest: "[Warning:Sideloader] Cannot load BetterGraphicsOptimization_v2_0_1.zipmod - Manifest.xml is missing, make sure this is a zipmod."
Can you share your debug output log, so I can look into that. There is no manifest.xml as it is not needed, although it is a sideloader mod, but I am not adding a new script/dll location to the native load nor editing the native load, I am updating the info on late update as the world loads. Ergo, no idea why this would say this at all as it is all hardcoded into the files in the mod.

Okay so, I haven't tested this yet, buuuut... at:


Someone by the handle "2155X" upoaded this mod (see attached file) "AI_ExtraGirls" that increases the added girl cap to 99, but in turn makes the save dependent on the mod (so zip up them user data folders first).

One less thing I have to do if it works. LOL! Besides, for every 1 thanks you get 10 complaints for every mod you make anymore which makes it a depressing task at times lol. Most here are cool, or at least in the main forums anyway. Ironically there is little you can do most of the time since it's system specific or someone simply didn't follow instructions, but won't be told that by anyone else. LOL!

Stop by and offer a word of encouragement!

Also on Discord is this mod posted by NekoChan that I've been playing with that makes my mod obsolete:

" " graphics enhancer... (password: zodgame)

It's setup is a little bit more but it enables you to control the graphics via sliders and augments the sliders in the BR2 menu as well. This enhances everything I did, but allows you to play with all of it yourself (I'd note the original values on a piece of paper so you don't end up with wonky effects)... And the better part is you can turn off ALL the settings in the vanilla options menu then play with the settings in the DHH graphics options and you will get WAY better FPS. I am drawing about +20FPS compared to my mod and the overall graphics are way better. Shadows look better and are more crisp, AO is adjusted way better, night looks very dark, fire looks more real, etc. It works so good I honestly uninstalled my own mod. (Go figure)

I'm not to proud to admit that someone did it better, so, give this one a try and be sure to give NekoChan some props.

Welp its for good reason why vanilla only 4 girls because its really tiresome? to take care even single girl in this game (and your machine too) .... which is fun maybe?

Some Maids will be greatly appreciated for this reason.

Anyway (y)

You mean for the voice work? I thought I heard some familiar voices in there.

Well, the number of voice actors one can find on Fiver willing to do some short dialogue recordings then a bunch of "Oooo's," "Aaaah's," and other general orgasmic noises is rather low as most will assume you are just a pervert and reject your request when you don't turn over some Emmy award winning scripting...
That is true, this is why the voices you get in most indie games that have them are unknown actors or even YouTubers.

It's not quite there yet, but it is improving drastically with every release. So much so that I may be able to contribute some quality control myself if the dev behind that aspect, probably Marco, will let me.

Hey, you did a fantastic job and should still be proud of the work you put into yours. It really does look amazing. I'm not kidding when I say my mouth literally dropped open on that last preview pic you posted. In fact, I am applying to actually try now. I've had it for a few hours, but haven't had a chance to sit down and play with it until now. EDIT: Just loaded it in, noticeable FPS drop, but only in the numbers. I only knew it dropped because I had the FPS counter on. It wasn't that noticeable in the actual graphics to me even though it was about a 50% drop. I'm running it on an Asus GL502VM gaming notebook with a GTX 1060 laptop variant, probably really about the equivalent of a GTX 1050 desktop variant, 24GB of DDR4 RAM, and an I7 6700HQ processor with all settings on and maxed and I'm getting 20-30 FPS with the mod and 40-60 FPS without. All in all, you did an amazing job. The difference between native game graphics and modded graphics is like night and day in some cases. I'm definitely keeping this applied. I'm considering capturing an image for use as a desktop background, obviously nothing I wouldn't want to let slip since this is not just a home use computer. Probably just a pic of my house after the update coming in a week.

I wouldn't call it a clean sweep, his transparency and specular settings are blown to hell and your fog and indirect light settings are lot better.

Also you still can't turn off AA, because apparently Deus Vult. The tonemapping and actual HDR is godlike, though.

Hello everybody,
after some tries to install the Br2 update, with crashes- and then rebuild to Br1.3 bebisfolder and simmilar,
Today i tried a tottaly "new" Strathegy and have now +only+ two files deleted >bepinex/patchers: culturefix.dll
And> Bepinex/config: CultureFix.cfg

Now it starts and loads normal with Br2 as before on the BR1.3.
after an hour ingame I thought to tell you something .
Hopefully someone needet this Info.


*EDIT 24.Nov.: After many crashes in this Night , Blackscreen afterloading(Game or Charamaker), total invisible Player+npc,
complete outerrange zoom by H-Scene without any Control left... and so on.
I deletet the BepinexFolder(the Folder) from BR2 and put the Br1.3 BepinexFolder back now it works normal.
There are no Problems with any of the mods in mods Folder/SideloaderBR2.
Something other(Distroying things) was in this Update pack(1.3>2.0) since it first run stable on the 17. for an Hour.
I dont need to new investigate for this issues, and download after Ilusion get the new Patch released.
BY the time i spendet to find a Solution of the problems I could have downloaded the full packet .
I do not know if that would work for me immediately . Next time hopefully .
It would be quite good if the settings in the Br were all as small as possible, that you can still put up what you need. VSync has to go! otherwise he will kill himself by loading on small Pc.
I´m not pissed , i´m happy to handle these .
Schönes Wochende an alle.

I really thought I had it but I can't get the Girls to eat at any table that I've built. I've tried all tables with separat chairs in all possible positions as well as the dining tables and none of them does work. Any ideas ?

Anyone else still having a blank, white screen freeze on startup? I have the BetterRepack V2, and I can't seem to get the game up and running.

However, upon "vanillifying" the game, as in removing every extra (translations, mods, etc.), I had it working. But I can't play the game properly since I can't read Japanese.

Having issues with the skirts, specifically they appear as if made of some netting material or some sort of mesh material. They're basically see through. I can still see the skirt, but also everything in the next layer down on that part of the girl. I've been having this since I started in Better Repack 1.3. It isn't constant, it just switches from totally solid to this on occasion.
