As noelle answered it´s not quite clear what you want to compare o_O
If you mean the latest version R10 against earlier versions there are no significant changes in graphics, the main development happens on the mod side.
If you want to use newest character cards it´s always a good idea to have the latest version.
Maybe a R10.1 is coming soon.

Anyway the HS2 game alone (with a bunch of mods as "BetterRepack") is about 50 GB to download.
The "Sideloader Modpack Studio" (~80 GB) is ONLY for StudioNEO and NOT for the game.

hello guys, is there a way to download only the vanilla game without any mods ? i got low disk space
That´s an interesting question o_O
I don´t think you have much fun with this game without all the amazing mods. Also you get troubles with most character cards created with less or more mods. And the base game is censored.

Where to get the base game I don´t know, I always used BetterRepack (since R4) - you have to google for "Honey Select 2 Libido DX".

For your space problem I only have the idea to use the Steam version, this needs only 15GB disc space.

So i unzipped/reinstalled it to another drive at the top level, still same error.... yea, i downloaded from the same torrent.

So, there's no installation for this version, right? Just extract? I noticed that the previous versions of games I had to install and they registered in the windows system. Not sure if this could be the prob.

Hmmmm.....this is weird.

Anyway you´re right, the BetterRepack is only to be extracted as I showed you above https://f95zone.to/threads/honey-select-2-libido-dx-r7-illusion.53457/post-8976109
If you want a recording in the windows registry you can run the RegistryFixer - I myself never did and run the game beside windows without issues.

Did you compare the size of your downloaded zipfile with my screenshot?

Yea, i did, same size. I ran the registry bat, didn't make a difference. I'm giving up now, too much time wasted already. Thanks for your help.

If you mention "50gigs mods" and "bonemod" I guess you have the Steam version to play.
Sry to tell you that if you want to play most of the shared character cards without troubles you will NEED the usual modpacks.
For Steam it´s the SB3 pack from ScrewThisNoise (the full version)

Can someone please explain to be what the "Sideloader Modpack - Exclusive HS2" folder is for? Is there is a LiaraME3.zipmod file in there in the McM82 folder. Is there any way to get the character card from this file or do I go about getting this character in the game another way?

TurboJoe has answered about disk space for the game.
One option would be to run it off an external disk drive.
I have mine on a separate SSD card and it runs perfectly well and means I don't eat up the main hard drive space with all the mods and cards. I'd hate to have to pick & choose what to keep and delete.
It also means when I upgrade I can do a clean load which is a lot less hassle (in my view).
Best of luck.

Anyone know of any up-to-date tutorials on getting started making a mod for HS2? I want to make some tattoos (ones that will show up in the 'Paint' list) but I haven't been able to find a good example

Making tattoos is a thing of Overlays - ad hoc I can offer a little guide a friend pnd me for making clothing overlays.
You have to make you familiar with a photo editor program like Photoshop or Gimp (Freeware).

If the WordPad file doesn´t work I can try to insert the pn copy direct in a post.

Btw. you can find tattoo overlays on Illusion Discord

Sorry yeah I meant to ask if the jump from HS1 and 2 is a noticeable difference.
Read here

When I started with HoneySelect 1 year ago ist was still said there are more mods existing for HS1, but I`m thinking this is history now. ;)

NOTE: character cards from HS1 and HS2 are NOT compatible - you can´t use your HS1 cards in HS2.
