Due to the need to patch BepInEx 5.3 plugins to BepInEx 5.4 format, as well as initial caching of zipmods, initial/first launch will take longer than usual. This is a one time thing, until plugins are updated for the new format and zipmods are cached.

From this release onward, the optional modpack for Studio is no longer bundled with the main repack. If you want that, you may find it on my download site treated as its own repack.

If you have trouble starting the game, start the game once through the launcher (InitSetting.exe), this will check for errors and fix them as well before starting the game.

You can update the sideloader modpack (clothing mods etc) from the launcher. Just press the icon in the lower left corner of the launcher with the arrow to check for updates. I'm updating that more often than the main pack, so should get some updates there every so often ;)


This is the readme for the pack, detailing the contents:​

Code:
Release 13
<--------------------->

No donations // no ad-maze // no upfront payment
If you paid for this, you were scammed!
If you like the game, please buy it!
If you enjoy the mods, please consider donating to the modders on patreon where possible.

This pack is made with a up2date base game as of 17.01.2019, along with the components listed in credits, all up2date as of the release date of this pack. Some extras have been included, but are either easily removable or are sorted into folders marked [OPTIONAL]. Enjoy!

To add shortcuts to your desktop of the launcher and the most important folders for the game, feel free to run '[BR] Create Desktop Icons.bat'.

If you have trouble starting the game, start the game once through the launcher (InitSetting.exe), this will check for errors and fix them as well before starting the game.

[B]IF YOU'RE MOVING FROM ANOTHER REPACK:[/B]
I don't recommend just extracting this over another repack, due to potential conflicts. Please extract this to its own folder and move over your chara, cap, studio and save folders.

[B]WANT A VANILLA PACK?[/B]
If you wish to convert this pack into a vanilla pack, there is a included script named '[BR] Vanillify the game.bat' that gives you the following options:
1. Remove only translation, leaving the rest of the mods intact
2. Remove all BetterRapack Extras
4. Remove all BetterRepack Extras, mods and translation
Feel free to use this script to customize your install, but keep in mind that using this may make the game incompatible with future repack updates, requiring you to download the next repack in full!

[B]WANT YOUR CARD OR SCENE INCLUDED IN THE NEXT REPACK?[/B]
Feel free to DM me on discord (ScrewThisNoise#3544) with the card(s) and/or scene(s), and I'll see what I can do for the next release. (See community links for server link)

[B]What is included in the base game?[/B]
- Base release game
- All preorder extras
- Newest official update as of 30.10
- Premium Miko DLC
- Premium Succubus DLC2
- Premium Sister DLC
- Premium Bondage DLC
- DX Expansion

(*) = Optional mod
(**) = Utility

There are two download options, Full for newcomers, Update for people that already have my previous packs (So they don't have to download all of it over again). If you experience ANY problem after using the update pack, please use the full pack before reporting any problems.



Share this pack as you want, re-host it or whatever.. All credit goes to the modders actually making this possible
Feel free to tell me if you reupload the pack anywhere else! :)

I'd very much appreciate it if you would all think about supporting me on patreon, but keep in mind that I won't paywall my packs, this is just for supporting me making my packs better :)
Man, I've got some problems. When I turned on screen space reflections(turned on by default) in DHH or graphics mod, there would be a circle of light around the body, if you turn reflection off and the light will be gone. And in some scenes like the gent's club lobby, those reflections on the ground look pretty weird. Is there a way to fix the "body light aura" without turning off reflection?

It's in the studio, of course.

Hey guys.
I couldnt find anything, so im asking here.
when i start the game i dont have any main menu ingame. no writings, no nothing. ive got the R13 BetterRepack and updated everything. thx for your help :)
New install?
Seems the game doesn´t load correct.
Most often reason for this is a bad game folder location.
Should be on top of a drive and possibly not C:\, give a short main folder name without unnecessary subfolders --> e.g D:\HS2-R13.

Man could you make a guide of updating the vanilla version(using your .bat file) to R13? I tried to install VNGE and MMD Director on vanilla version, but it didn't work. I definitely missed some pre-required mods.
And the clothes parts are ton, maybe you can list the characters mods and clothes mods and some other mods you packed. Then I can remove some unwanted parts to reduce the size.
Also, is there a way to arrange the windows in studio? I made some change and the next time I lunch the studio, some remained there but some didn't.

the current update has killed my game. o_Oo_Oo_O
May I ask from which "update" are you guys talking about???

RougeComet: "vanilla" version??? I don´t know what this should be, I only know the BetterRepack from ScrewThisNoise (the base game + the whole Sideloader modpack for the game) and that since version R4.1
If you have an older version the better way is to download the newest version (R13) and make a clean new install.

Soulworker: you mean BR R13 (so you had an older version so far) or the Sideloader update function?
Anyway both should work without any troubles, my install since release https://f95zone.to/threads/honey-select-2-dx-r13-illusion.53457/post-11003329, running update yesterday.

so

I had already updated to 13 today and installed the shader - everything ran without problems.
then I let the updater still run through, because I had not yet pulled down everything on it.
when it was done, my game did not find the initsetting.
after a backup the game ran, but all shaders of hanmem were no longer recognized correctly and it comes this message.
think the game has some eien allocation not properly executed and it therefore comes to this double allocation.
will make the days also times a reinstallation and if everything runs my mod archive again drauf pack...
ps.. ScrewThisNoise has yes in his version as a result of BepinEx geupdatet.
had also already meant that it could be the problem, since hanmen 3.0 should run from 5.4.21 ...
have it therefore meanwhile also times with the new on 6.0 tried ... no chance. Error is still

R13 today? What did you since June 14? ;)

Joking aside - how did you "upgrade"? With update files from here
This is a well known error prone way.
I´m always make a clean new install (since R4.1 this game found me) and never had any issues after running updater.

The new Hanmen shader haven´t tested yet - I will report the result if executed.
EDIT: working fine :D

Btw as I´ve seen in your screenshot you should shorten your file pathes and skip your first main folder, for example D:\HS2-R13 (and nothing else).

Maybe you can use mine View attachment [VIRUS] InitSetting.zip

There is a "[BR] Vanillify the game.bat" file in the game folder. ScrewThisNoise said that running it can give you the vanilla version. If you don't know, check his R13 post.

Ah - ok - but what is this for? I´m confused o_O
If I want BR R13 I download this from here , make a new install and that´s it.

Btw reducing the size of BetterRepack is absolutely senseless, if you want to use character cards created in BR R13 to avoid missing mod messages.

So I got all the .7z files from the repack all-in-one on google drive, and when I try extracting them as a group it doesn't work. I get the same ol error message of "Cannot open file as archive". I've tried getting the files from the actual repack website, those didn't work either (since they send me to the same google drive anyways). Tried reinstalling it, still don't work. Anyone know what might be wrong?
