Others Completed Artificial Academy 2 [MiniPPX v8] [Illusion]

[JustAl]

MarcusOplan, I see that file is indeed missing though from the notes I made while proceeding through installing I did make an interpretation for what that line in the readme meant.

AA Unlimited version 1.8.0 or higher is required for v25 or later (Thank you for the difficult work)
And put the attached JMCP.lua in AA Unlimite[d] / mod

This is referring to older versions of the mod and install process, which are no longer reflected in the newest build -- there is no .lua file (script) to install. The newest AAU-AA2 uses .ppx format instead of .pp2 format, so I assume at some point a lua script was required.

What could resolve your issue is to reset JMCP in savedconfig.lua, which is a procedurally generated config that you can then make edits within to change content parameters. However when you add new mod content, it might not reflect in this config properly. I wrote the following note down:

NOTE: Every time mods change I should visit AAUnlimited/savedconfig.lua and delete the "mods" line to refresh the loaded mods. (Hold Shift and use the End button to select it all.)

The reason you need to do this is because savedconfig.lua will continue to hold outdated information about previously installed mods, options, and save files. You will select the entire line starting with the word "mods", down to the end of this line, then delete it. You should backspace until there's no gap between repl_history={[1]="",} and bUseShadowing=true. When you run AA2Play.exe that line will be completely remade. This could fix your issue.

Note that if you elect to use JapaneseMCP_male_ejaculation_SE_mod_ver4.4 included in JapaneseMCPv25.1v2, you'll need to use the merged futa and male ejaculation shadowsets from JapaneseMCPv25.1v2/sets/When using male_ejaculation_SE_mod and the voice patch in that last directory from the archive !male_ejaculation_SE_jmcp_patch_v25.1.7z.

I can't fault you for finding this hard to follow because going for this extra content is a maze.

Would anyone be interested in an actual guide/tutorial for this game? Since its almost the weekend, i have more time than i need, so i could sit down and write up the mechanics, functions and such that govern this game? Obviously, people more knowledgeable than me will be free to point out my mistakes, if any.

"Yay"? "Fuck off"?

That seems nice. Even if we learn how to run the game and know how to play, hardly anyone has actually experimented with NPC responses and conditions for events when NPCs approach the player. I do suggest you check the Discord server before you start and check the server pins, just to ensure someone else did not already do that.

Ok, I discovered that I'm so stupid that I spent a whole day trying to figure out what I was supposed to do and in the end I discovered that even by drawing I won't fully understand how to do it, I don't know whether to laugh, cry or go to the gym and cry because I don't have futa content in the game

Bah. Im too old for discord, and besides, i dont really care if the information will repeat itself with some other source (not word for word, of course, im not a fan of plagiarism). Im just trying to find some silly picture for a thumbnail and i will (lazily) get on it over the weekend. Should be ready by sunday evening. I will try to limit myself to actually describing what the interaction buttons do. some mechanical stuff revolving about LLDH and NPC reasons and responses. You know more about the insides of this game than i ever will - the whole reason im even bothering with this, is that the wiki is outdated and/or full of crap in many descriptions of interactions. This being the whole reason for me even wanting to cover this topic.

Will post the "guide" soon.

Let's say, hypothetically, someone disabled the launcher script in the launcher menu to see what would happen. How would this very hypothetical person re-enable the launcher? I assume there is a config file somewhere right? I can't... I mean this hypothetical person can't seem to find it.

 

[Tsugumi]

1337P373 That person could - hypothetically, of course - find "savedconfig.lua" in AAUnlimited folder, search for

, and change that part back from "["disabled"]=true" to "["disabled"]=false". Hypothetically, that might re-enable the launcher.

 

[Koma1105]

Olá pessoal, queria saber se alguém ainda joga Artificial Academy 2? pois queria saber como baixar mods nele, já tentei de tudo, mas não funciona, já vi vídeos e tal, mas os vídeos são de muito tempo atrás e não está ajudando em nada

Thank you! For some reason this guy saw that and assumed it was configuring the saves, not for saving the configuration, what an idiot right? Again totally not me but some other totally hypothetical, and still very dumb, idiot.

 

[Evizzy89]

so is link in OP the most up to date one the one I should download? I have massive lag playing it so I am currently downloading the torrent in the guide but its 8.7 suggesting its way behind? not entirely sure what to do

Ill also add that the link in the main post has none of the files that the 'guide' tells me to install

The download in this thread's OP uses PP2 archives instead of PPX archives. Since PP2 is no longer supported you won't get new mods or fixes, including the lag fix for Windows versions 10 and 11.

 

[tiikerihai]

That's not really true. Windows 10 fix is not part of mini, it's AAU which you can update. You also don't actually need AAU to use it. I use DXVK2 for AG3 for example, which uses same engine as AA2. That being said, you'll probably run out of memory on pp2 and crash if you enable the fix. It runs pretty close to the edge of RAM cap on default settings.

Not that any of this information really matters, but I might as well put it out there.

 

[Evizzy89]

Bear with me, what follows can be confusing since there's documentation to read and confusingly nested archives (particularly in JMCP). I don't use futa content but I'll try to assemble a reasonable path for you to get started.

1. Follow
   You must be registered to see the links
   to the PPeX files section. You'll find
   You must be registered to see the links
   .
   
   
2. Read and follow but do not yet add files to your game yet, that's step 5. Find and download JapaneseMCPv25.1v2.7z. It's a bit tricky to sort out the extra file content, so read the txt files carefully. Note that when you install shadowsets (folders with a leading "!"), they will conflict if any file within their folder directories is named exactly the same as another file within the same folder tree placement (directory) of another shadowset. In short, this means for mods like JMCP that come with multiple shadowset options, only have 1 enabled. You do that by only installing 1 !shadowset folder or adding all of them but having only 1 !shadowset and the rest as shadowset without a leading "!".
   
   
3. Now that we're past one tricky part, note the sets_Open_futa_in_all_positions.7z archive nested in the "sets" folder of the main JMCP archive. Note there is yet another nested option in a folder called When using male_ejaculation_SE_mod&futa.
   
   
4. You still haven't installed anything, you've just been following the file content. Next, download the Futa Starter Pack. There's a readme and a character template you can use. Its readme contains a link
   You must be registered to see the links
   , opening to the page about Archive Overrides which is crucial to how futa characters are made.
   
   
5. Now that you've read this all, pick your JMCP version. You'll go with the !shadowsets in the sets_Open_futa_in_all_positions.7z archive's root, unless you want submissive males / trap content, then a readme you found on the way to that will probably have told you to go with the male_ejaculation_SE_mod and its accompanying readme.
   
   
6. Check out and install the modules (think of them as super-traits) from
   You must be registered to see the links
   . There's a couple modules for futa here, one which adds more functionality and one which just makes characters prefer futas (characters with first mentioned module).

It's not very intuitive to follow AA2's content as it is spread across a variety of users. Hopefully this will help you get started with the futa content you seek. Somewhat relevant, check out somethingpersonal's recent post about homo content for a helpful relevant Mega link.

so on my 4th reinstallation and try I managed to actually not get the game to error when I enter a sex scene, now the issue is the futa character (I am supposed to be the female one) I tried to have sex with is also female, although in her character card (the one that came with the futa starter pack) shes a futa all the choices also seem to be for me to top as if I had the penis not entirely sure what I did wrong, my goal was to get her to work and then edit my own characters so did something I do with futa not work correctly or am I missing something?
the only sets I used was the open futa one which I placed

edit: ah it seems whatever character I am playing I assume the male role, so instead of futa mod I would need to mod a male characters to have a female looks?

 

[JustAl]

Evizzy89, without me reading too deeply, did you happen to install modules then apply the Futanari module to your character in the editor? Modules handle the in-game functionality to make characters unique. Good on you though for getting this far and having the game working and appearance functionally fine!

On the Mega repositories there's an edit of the Pillow Princess module (Pillow Princess Custom) that always forces its character to assume the submissive role. That might help you.

thanks that worked, the pillow princess + futanari module I jus assumed since the character came from the futa starter pack that it was automatically all set up

Most player-made character cards outright fail to utilize modules. They tend to use fewer than 5 modules if they're not using none as usual. Once you get a handle on how to edit the AI triggers yourself you'll find it easy to put over 2 dozen modules on a character and tweak the exact conditions yourself to make characters very unique and publish your own modules to reuse and distribute at your convenience.

I'm surprised more games / mod communities don't take advantage of making AI behavior so easy to fine-tune. It's one of the biggest value-adds a game can have.

Alguém sabe como colocar mods no AA2?

Alguém sabe como colocar mods no AA2?

Google Translate from Portuguese to English:

Does anyone know how to put mods on AA2?

I recommend you check out the Modern Install Guide, and install your AA2 from a link near the top of this guide through a torrent given from a page linked near the top of the guide. Certain other content requires additional work, but it's doable with effort and care. Read the guide carefully and be prepared that finishing the guide could take a few evenings worth of spare time.
Google Translating my reply back:
Eu recomendo que você verifique o Guia de instalação moderna e instale seu AA2 a partir de um link próximo ao topo deste guia por meio de um torrent fornecido em uma página com link próximo ao topo do guia. Alguns outros conteúdos requerem trabalho adicional, mas são possíveis com esforço e cuidado. Leia o guia com atenção e esteja preparado, pois terminar o guia pode levar algumas noites de tempo livre.

The guy would have more of a shot, if he at least knew english, which i believe is the "native" language everywhere on the internet...

As for the guide - its coming up nicely, and by that i mean - i havent even started!
Same problems ive had since i was a kid - have to write something, know what to write, hands dont move for half an hour - then out of the blue i start shooting out words like theyre bullets from a tommy gun in the 30s american bar! *siiiigh* Wish it was simpler to organize this mess.
