I unpacked it directly into the "mods" directory. I did not launch anything prior to installing the mod pack. What I did is pretty much:
Code:
mkdir hs2
cd hs2
7z x '~/Downloads/[ScrewThisNoise] HoneySelect 2 DX BetterRepack R13.7z'
cd mods
7z x -y '~/Downloads/[OPTIONAL][AI-HS2][20230611] Sideloader Modpack Studio.7z'
Then I just launch InitSetting.exe and click on "Start Studio". But same thing happens if I instead run "StudioNEOV2.exe" directly.
Edit:
This is on Linux obviously, but I don't think that would prevent the translation from working? How do I even verify that the English translation is there and correctly installed?
