Further to Whiney's reply, as an example, this post in the Scene thread runs MMD Dircetor
https://f95zone.to/threads/illusion...o-neo-scene-sharing-thread.85125/post-9672281

It contains a VMD file for the dance motion of the character.
One scene can have multiple characters using different VMD files, so doing different movement.
Also there is often a VMD file for the camera motion as well (not in this scene though as I ran out of time to get it sorted).
You can then add a music file as well and MMD Director or older MMD wraps all the different elements up.

It's fun if you like music and can find a suitable dance routine and song.
Thanks for the enlightenment :D
StudioNEO is still an area 51 for me, never found time to deepen myself into this tool :rolleyes:

How can I place an image inside Neo studio v2 as it is in the image... View attachment 2272384
HI!
I guess, you sellect the item, in this case, TV set, Now go to "Material editor" and find the texture. Select "Import new", and upload the picture you want. I think it has to be te accurate measure so you don't have issues like crop picture, upscaled or downscaled, etc.
Sorry my bad english xD

Ok - once again to write down: you have two options to get HoneySelect 2

1 - you download the BetterRepack (now version R15) ~ 68GB for free, that is the original japanese game with the english translation from Steam, a big modpack (only for game.......clothes, hairpacks, skins, makeups etc) and the StudioNEO base version to create scenes for pictures, animations, even hentai stories.
ONLY usable for StudioNEO is the Optional Sideloader Modpack Studio ~ 190GB - you can skip this first if you only want the game for the beginning.

2 - if you buy the game on Steam you only get a (censored!) base version. To bring it to the mod level of BetterRepack you need the SB3 Patch (same author as BetterRepack: ScrewThisNoise): normal edition with uncensor + few mods, full edition same amount of mods as BetterRepack at level R11. As I know StudioNEO is not included.

The first download address for all is here , you have to choose your game pack on the left side and get several links to download.

Alternatively you find download links here on page 1 - the Steam version is only the "normal edition" with less mods, the All-In-One (DX R14 Base Game Repack) is the same as the BetterRepack from ScrewThisNoise.

You can use most AI cards in HS2 - no matter if BetterRepack or Steam - , but sometimes need a little tweaking, cuz newer mods don´t work in both games any more.

It is strongly recommended to download via torrent, the install (only extracting) of 1 big .7z file is easy. The extracting splitted packs (actually 15 parts) is a little tricky and there is more chance getting corrupted files.
Little install guide here https://f95zone.to/threads/honey-select-2-dx-r14-illusion.53457/post-7591731

Edit: updated to newest versions

If you have the Steam version + the full SB3 patch you have the same as the original japanese game with BetterRepack, so most AI cards should work.

The StudioNEO is an own thing to create scenes and pictures, have nothing to do with the game (excepting you can load your game cards into it).

You can either start the game or the Studio

You can find 2 plugins in [optional mods] in the game main folder that could be helpful. One is GifPlane and the other mp4plane. The name is from placing a media file in a "plane", for example the screen on a smartphone etc.
And to add to your and Kaseijin's comments:

There is an "image board" object - included with the install. It renders any *.png file that's saved in your HS2/UserData/BG folder.

You slap an image file on it, then position it over any screen and you are pretty much done:

About what Kaseijin said about using material editor, you may or may not be able to do that because some items in this game don't have the model regions set properly.
As in you may not have access to editing the screen's texture, but you SHOULD be able to. Just know that if there is no option to change the texture, that's just bad luck

Was hoping studio R11 would somehow fix a general issue since R9 to R10.
But for whatever reason, scenes are fine (+30 FPS) for 5 characters.
However, if you try to add one more (+6 characters) FPS tanks to 5-6.
With LShift+U shortcut for FPS i see that it is a vsync/render problem.
Any clues here?
hey So I just added 7 characters very close to eachother in a scene and I'm not getting an FPS tank like you on a BR11 install without any other graphics mods besides DHH. This may only be an issue caused by some of your plugins.

I mean, my FPS DOES drop a lot with so many characters in view, but not nearly to 6-7 FPS just because of the last added, 7th character. It depends on the clothing and hairstyles, but generally, one character drops my fps by about 3 or 4 viewed from a few meters away.

Sometimes they hidden in Scenes, so you can download some from Kenzato Booru, Bepis DB and Yuki Portal.
For isolated VMD files the best option I could find was searching on DeviantArt. Some contain only links to YouTube to see the end product, but some contain VMD files you can download.
Best of luck
Thanks, guess this is the best we got. But hot damn what a painful process. I wish it was about as easy as sharing and downloading cards.
Thanks for the enlightenment :D

I haven't done anything with StudioNEO either, but so far I know this is the only way to get new sex animations for your characters.

As I know you can make them for scenes, but not import into the game.
Anyway in Repack R11 I found new H-Scenes, not only renamed by new translation.

I haven't looked at it yet but noticed this post on Yuki Portal
It may be a scene with everything packaged up
