That is why I like Koikatsu Sunshine just slightly more than Honey Select 2. KKS has a lot more positions, far more voices to choose from, better lighting, and sex feels a lot more intimate. HS2 has incredible realism, especially with the right mods, and more customization. If HS2 had as many positions and voices as KKS it would be absolutely perfect, imo.

Also, if you use the right shading and mess with the material editor you can almost HS2 quality:

My problem is I don´t like this anime look of the characters, by far not to compare with good HS2 characters.
But I guess the playgame itself is a lot more varied and interesting - so best of 2 worlds would be a Koikatsu with the chara system of HS2.

I didn't at first but KKS grew on me. I am not a fan of the huge head, flat chest (or ridiculously oversized tits), and pale skin that seem to be the majority of KKS cards. I tend to design characters that are more 3d cartoony with more realistic proportions.
...so best of 2 worlds would be a Koikatsu with the chara system of HS2.
Indeed!

Hi, I am sorry if this has been asked before.

I am having trouble starting the game. I downloaded the Honey Select 2 DX R15 Full Pack edition from the MEGA link.

This is my game folder path:

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

I started the game through InitSetting.exe, which shows me the window with the buttons where I can start HS2. I activated the console and there is a bunch of errors within the log (like a lot). The game window would appear and would show a white screen, followed by a black screen with the HS2 cursor (and it gets stuck). Here's some of the errors:

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

All the Sideloader Modpacks seemed to produce an error, so I used * in place of its names.

I felt that perhaps I needed to download the 192 GB Optional Sideloader Modpack, but its 192 GB and I don't have sufficient storage for that. And it's optional so I felt that it is not critical to running the game.

I am not sure why the error persists. I have tried going into the manager and disabling all mods, but the other two types of errors still exist. I tried vanilifying the game by removing all extras and the error still persists. I tried downloading from different links and tried running it in different external drives and even my local drive, and it still won't work.

For context, I am running the game using Parallels Windows 11 on my M1 MacBook Pro. I have successfully played this game about 2 years ago with the R7 repack version, and I can run it again now through my external drive just fine. I just wanted to start fresh on R15, so I decided to redownload the whole game instead of upgrading step by step (which now I am a bit scared to do since it may break the working version).

I am not sure if I need to download the Unity engine, but it seemed unlikely because the R7 version works just fine.

I am truly lost. Any help is appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

That looks quite like a permission on path problem...

Make sure the game is in a short path, like `C:\Illusion\HoneySelect2`, `D:\Illusion\HoneySelect2` etc (recommended install path), and if that fails, try to run the game as admin (right click on HoneySelect2.exe and select run as admin).

IMO STN is right with the game path.
I always recommend a short named main folder on top of a drive (for shortest file pathes) and possibly not C:/ (to avoid conflicts with the OP system).
In your case move your R15 folder (with the HS2.exe) directly to Y:/, and rename it to HS2-R15 --> new .exe location now Y:/HS2-R15.

The "update" lele63 recommended isn´t the reason for loading issues but should always be done if your new installation is running fine at least.

Is there a selective download available? What if I don't want all the additional mods?
Why you don´t want the mods?
For character creation or to load nice cards you found and downloaded yourself you mostly need the mods.

The smallest version except the original japanese game (censored and without any translation) is the Steam base game (also censored). You can uncensor this including a small amount of mods with the SB3 Patch Normal Edition (~ 13GB).
Look here

The SB3 Full Edition is about the mod level of BR R11.

Single mods of the BetterRepack you can download from here

Download one of the earlier repacks ( ) as it is the most vanilla out of all the repacks:


Or download a more recent version and use the "[BR] Vanillify the game.bat" included in the repack.

Not quite sure if this works because of the outdated main mod BepInEx and other essential mods and plugins.
With old BepInEx newer mods may not work.
