Ok - so it seems your game has a problem with the UI.
In my experience for HS2 you don´t need a classic "Install" under Windows. The game is running well beside Windows directly via InitSetting.exe.
Just extract the torrent 7z into a game folder nearest top of a drive, e.g. D:/HONEYSELECT, and skip unneccessary subfolders like "[ScrewThisNoise.....".
It is recommended to avoid C:/, this can cause conflicts with restrictions of your OS.
Then make a shortcut of InitSetting.exe to your desktop and start it. Choose your solution and graphic setting and launch the game.
Yes, you missed the newest version of BetterRepack, but this is NOT the cause of your troubles. Anyway your R10 (released in July) should also work well out of the box, but it´s a good idea to start with the newest version.
Torrent is the most failsafe way, the torrent file you get direct from here
You must be registered to see the links
.
Other download links from all Illusion games are always here
You must be registered to see the links
to find.
Don´t forget to deactivate "Sideloader Modpack Studio" before starting the torrent download, if you only want the game.
You can download this later, if you get familiar with StudioNEO.
