By the way, in the launch options I disabled autosave. So why is my characters' emotional state/affinity still being saved?

(top left)



I mean, my character has the neutral emote, but after H-Scene, I close the game and re-open it, she now has the sad emote.

I mean, it saves my characters' emotional state even though I have autosave disabled.

I guess this affects the H-Scene gameplay somehow, and I can't make all my characters happy by default, right?

Plus I guess when I download a card, it comes up happy, sad, or neutral, depending on the creator's settings.

It's kind of annoying because I don't even know how to bring my characters back when they run away.
Again, I don't play the actual game but from what I know those states are just part of the game progression. The auto save only make a quick backup of sorts so there is no progress lost mid game. It's helpful for me because I always use the maker and if I change a card too much I can just load an auto save before I borked it.

You aren't locked to a creators settings for the girls at all. You can open them up in the maker and set them to whatever you want. Make a timid character into a nympho right from the start for example. Not sure if you can change their experience though. I want to say you can but don't quote me on that. It may be tied to actual gameplay.

By the way, out of curiosity, is it possible that the game's rendering is inferior to the "Character Studio" renderer? (I think that's what it's called)

Because it's true that I've seen that some cards use photoshop, and the model looks different when I open it in the game.

I just sometimes download a card that looks awesome, but when I open it in the game, it looks pretty poor (in this case it's not a problem with my resolution).

When you talk about screenshots ingame, keep in mind, that all maps have a buildin preset and lighting. You might have to adjust both for the map (or each you're using) for good quality.
Lights, presets and settings in screenshot manager (plugin) have to play together.

(and disable BetterAnti-Aliasing in the launcher)

Thanks so much for taking the time to check it out friend!

Ok... it's definitely not my imagination, my model doesn't look as good as yours. Your model looks “clean” and mine looks different, I can't explain it.

I'm using 1600 resolution, but in windowed mode it shouldn't look that bad.

I think it's because I'm on Arch Linux, or some problem with the resolution.

I can't raise the resolution any higher since I only have a 4gb 1050 ti and I'm at 30 fps with this resolution. But I think it's definitely resolution problem or something.

Also lots of sawtooths in rendering. is there any way to access all the video settings?


Well - meanwhile tried your cards as promised.

I´m using same resolution as you and GraphicsMode, but as Skeltom already noted I also can´t find significant quality loss ingame.
Indeed there is a difference between charamaker and game, I guess due to different lighting settings - see screenshots

The GraphicsMode settings you can open with F5 (after launching), but this isn´t as easy as DHH and more for experts - recommended to leave it as it is, otherwise you can mess up your game completely.

Your launcher settings are ok - you didn´t activate "Better Anti-Aliasing" (as Metaru warned you). It´s an outdated graphic enhancer mod and completely substituted by DHH or GraphicsMode.
Choose only 1 setting to avoid conflicts.

Btw the 2 cards are completely the same character, 1 card has an additional top.

Pls note that the used Squeeze Socks have a body preset without any physics (no breast jiggle, cock clipping with vagina).
Better use these (type "skindentation" into search area)

Is it possible to add the optional mods into the steam version? or do i have to download all 68 GB (which i do not have space for when extracting...)
If you´re talking about "Optional Sideloader Modpack Studio" (>200GB) this is a modpack ONLY for StudioNEO and NOT for the game.
So far I know Steam version doesn´t include StudioNEO.

What you can do with your Steam game look here https://f95zone.to/threads/honey-select-2-dx-r11-illusion.53457/post-9723614

Thank you very much for all the advice, I didn't know all this.

About the Squeeze Socks configuration window, do I have to press F5 to access it?

Because I press F5 during the gameplay but I get a bugged window:

EDIT:

I managed to get the F5 window to work, but I don't know where the Squeeze Socks are.

Open Outfit (left side) and there "Socks".
In the window right you can type into the search field below.

Can anyone tell me how to fix the floating clothes? :( I'm just trying to make a fatty. Also there's this weird animation error whenever I use my shota player to have sex with the babes where they give me blowjobs but their mouths are right above my dick and not in their mouths. Any help on that too? I can take a screenshot later if I'm not being clear enough.

Yep - the game sometimes is reacting weird in H-animations if there are characters with extremer slider settings.

You can correct each H-position - hitting "N" while acting will open the correction screen
H-scene-Adjust.jpg

You have to do this for each position, it will be saved exactly for this certain character combination.

The Hooh mods won't load for me, bepinex is logging thousands of errors from HS2_QuickAccessBox.

eg.
[Warning:HS2_QuickAccessBox] Failed to load information about item: name=Flag01 Prefab Entrance group=1095 category=129 slot=5 zipmod="[hooh] 2020_gymnasium.zipmod" - Invalid group number

Anyone know what caused the group number issue / how to fix?

According to log, these Hooh mods are loading fine. 12+ other zipmods in this pack are specifically NOT loading at all, because they are not compatible or corrupt...?

Also im getting heaps of this thing every frame

I'm not sure why it's even patching Sirenix Odin Inspector at all :unsure:



edit #4:
i have discovered that MANY OF THE ZIPMODS IN THE BASIC PACK FAIL TO LOAD WITHOUT ADDITIONAL ZIPMODS FROM THE OPTIONAL PACK.
Fixed my original issue, still getting error spam from other issues

Sry - those messages are for me as cryptical as for each other not being a well trained IT Operator :(

But if you have loading issues with this game my first question is: where is your game location?
Should be on top of a drive for shortest file pathes, and possibly not C:/ - like D:/HS2-R15.

Further: what we are talking about at all? BetterRepack? Version? Splitted packs or torrent? New install or did it already run well before?
And what´s about "Optional Pack" - if you´re talking about "Optional Sideloader Modpack Studio" (>200GB to download) this is a modpack ONLY for StudioNEO and NOT for the game.

Hi, I just downloaded the BR15 and copied all my mods from BR14's mod folder to the new one. However the VNGE part on studio NEO has gone missing, even when I redownloaded the brand new VNGE and copy it to the game's folder, it still doesn't work. Am I missing something here?

I just tied adding it to mine. The included VNGE works fine on my end.

Just to be sure, all I need to do is copy these 2 folders into my game folder right? Cause I did the thing but VNGE still didn't show up.
Yes. In the plugins folder it should add a Console folder and another called Unity.Console.BepInEx.dll
