Question just for understanding:


I can't just updating R5 to DX R1/R2 ?
I have to download DX as a full pack again?

Yeah, you'll need to download DX R2 - either the base game or the full release with the extras for StudioNeo if you want them.

Well, ok.

But the problem is, Google Drive says "Download limit reached" and Mega has just 4 GB traffic volume for free users.
I can't use a torrent, bc i'm using a Shadow PC.

Are there some other hosters with the full pack?



EDIT:

Nevermind, just found a way to dl with Google Drive.

is there a plugin that changes the character's characteristics?
If you're playing a Repack, press F12 while in an H-scene. This'll bring up the cheat menu. You can adjust the parameters of the girl in the scene from the box that pops up in the bottom-left of the screen. Not played with it all that much myself , but I believe there's an advanced menu you can access from there too, that let's you change every characteristic of the girl.

It looks great (y). I'll add it to my preset. Edit >> I just took a look at it in game, love what you did with the shadows. I set it to my default graphics (y).
I only tweaked it a few notches with the character light and the backlight, couldn't have done it without all of your work! Looks like we both have a new default! :)

So I've now found out that chromatic aberration causes blur. Aside from using DHH, is there a plug-in to disable it?

11/21/2020 >> Graphics Enhancement updated. Slight Bloom reduction
11/21/2020 >> DHH_Settings rar updated with ASLPro3D tweaks. Much appreciated (y).

11/21/202 >> added everything to my HS2 card link. See signature. Kept the original thread post.
11/22/2020 >> Graphics Enhancement rar updated. A minor color fix.

11/21/2020 >> Tweaks to Zecon's new graphics settings. DHH_Settings_2 rar added to pack. See signature or graphics mod post.

Is there any way to convert cards from HS1 via a batch file, standalone .exe or website to Koikatsu/AI-Shouju/Honey Select 2 R5 / Honey Select 2 DX?
Important Frequently Asked Questions (and Answer):

Short Answer: No, Also Koikatsu & Character creator are Anime style not 3D model.

Longer Answer: Nooooo. Because it's a different game with a different engine... And engine from Unity 5 to Unity 2018/2019 are huge changes in implementation.

Longest Answer (that is probably wrong): The algorithms in character generation and geometry are completely different between Unity 5 and Unity 2018-2019.

We suppose you "could" load a HS 1 card with ALL the required mod dependencies in HS1 in plain neutral scene in HS Studio (without HUNDREDS of Mods used for make-up, clothing, accessories (there are a LOT of dependencies) and let's not forget the lighting... it's all about the lighting). Save the scene.
Then export the scene into Blender with all the correct mod and co-ordinate locations,
Make sure the geometry is correct,
Match up the face and body bones from HS1 to HS2 (hopefully with a script and not by hand) save the new scene in blender.
In Blender (or Unity 2018/Unity 2019) change the format of the scene AND Model to be correctly rigged for AI or HS2.
probably some other steps not listed here,
Generate the correct meshes
Export the scene from Blender/Unity 2018/2019 into a scene for Studio Neo V2 hoping that you have all the required mapped accessories, hair (facial hair if a dude), pupils, eyelashes, eyebrows, and somehow match all the required clothing/mods it use to have. Save the new scene.
Load up Studio Neo V2 and open the scene you created to check if correct.
Attempt to Ctrl-E export (for the Character) geometry.
Finally drop the card into the correct /userdata directory and generate the Giant [?] character card that now appears in the character creation screen,
Assign personality and all the other things.
Now you can do a Save and regenerate the picture for the card. That was for 1 card.

So no. it's impractical.

Did I mention learning Unity 2018-2019? Unity Personal is 100% free (just don't talk about reverse engineering OR porn, It IS a professional site so act like it's church/wedding/funeral) with a paid asset store and hundreds of hours of video tutorials and hands on courses that you can sign up for if it's a tricky problem. It would really help development efforts of making Honey Select 2 and Ai-Shoujo more modular and expandable. Your first game could be something like an using the assets for "FPS, Unity-chan, Rolling Magnets Stuck together, Traveling through Holes and Rubber Bands, Stretchy Fabric, While holding a bucket of water to put out a fire with a piston driven steam pump" for an idea.

You could even develop tools like the Sim 4, Wicked Whim has Hundreds of HOURS of H-Scene Animations already made in Blender... and run through a The Sims 4 community animation tools.

I already tried to download it from there, but there is a problem, the file manager has denied the pass to open the honey select 64x because when I start it only the black screen remains, there will be no other source to download it from?
ok google honey select better repack 3.5 get the version with all the mods etc already with it , should be around 21 gig and 90ish unzipped , id link it but since its offsite dumb ppl would prolly report my post to the mods and try getting me in trouble because half of em cant maneuver around ads on a site

When selecting create characters, screen goes white and displays 136.5 cm and the game will not load after that is shown. The game will not got to play after a restart either.
I have no idea of which mod is causing this issue.

Any solutions will be appreciated.
did you happen to install a plugin that require you to place an associated .dll file outside of the "BepInEx" folder? such as the "HSLipsync" plugin that has a file called "OVRLipSync.dll" that need to be replaced in the "game root" directly other than the ones that go to "BepInEx/plugins". get back to all plugins that u installed manually and make sure none of these are missing or misplaced. they will cause this kind of crash.

Canade and anyone else interested...

Here is a tweak that I performed on the DHH Graphic Mod setting that was originally done by Canade, this wouldn't have been possible without the hard work and effort that they put in to get the color balance right for the Graphical Mod...

I tweaked it a bit, because I think my own graphic settings are a little darker with my Duel Nivida Geforce 1080 TI Founders and monitor (which is really just a 42 inch smart tv)... but with my graphics, the character's were a little dark, so I only adjusted the main front light and the character's back lighting just a few degrees...

Canade's Original Settings:

My Tweak for Skin Tones/Characters:

View attachment 909670

Hope that helps anyone else, but again, wouldn't have been possible without Canade's attention and hard work!

Edit: Would help to add the download link... duh... Mega
looking good, cant wait to try those settings on a hard lit scenes. thanks for both of you and Canade . by the way, did you use reshade or sweetfx along with your edit to create the second screenshot?

The penis mods in DX R1 don't work in the studio; it just shows a sphere.

Can someone link me the old mods in R4 or R3 or give me the name of the mod so I can install it manually.

I did for both. It's always on as long as it's in the HS2 folder (I never remove it from the folder) >> Doesn't hurt the game or even cards.

Nope, that was just done with DHH 1.01 with SMAA anti-aliasing... it can still be just a tad dark in certain areas (like the public restroom), or when characters have a darker skin tone than normal, so might need to tweak it a touch more when I have some time again (been working on my own game trying to get that ready for release)... and will certainly post an update when I have the areas a little more balanced out, but certainly have a good base to work with thanks to Canade doing a lot of the work!
