I don't mean to intrude, but seeing all of you talking about bad optimazation has me wondering if there is something wrong with my machine.I am probably spoiled by playing most of my games at 100+ fps too. Its just that the problems HS2 currently has are absolutly not necessary. If they dedicated more people towards resource management/optimization and fixing their Global Illumination (because whats tanking the fps is not the big textures, its the lighting system) this game would be way more enjoyable.
But as someone mentioned, Illusion mainly hires college students who are looking for an entry into the development career, so i should probably cut them some slack.
Anyway. If i cannot snob about porn games anymore, life has no meaning.
To a certain degree yes, I spoke about it in my game-reviewPossibly dumb question but are graphics in this better than HS1? Wanna know if it can run at all on my craptop.
should work just fine in 1366*768 full screenWhat kind of reqiurements has got this game??? I have i5 4690k, 12GB RAM and RX460... There is slideshow.
No, I don't think so without officially owning the game and/or living in Japan, plus I think it's disabled by default in the repacks.uh, can you download cards from their site with the network option? im really suspicious of that feature.
If your repack version is R1, R1.1 or R1.2 then yes, unfortunately you have to download again.Anyway to just download the update instead of having to download the whole game again?
Thanks! Slightly yikes I have to join a Discord for that, but ohh well. I'll look into that one day.If your repack version is R1, R1.1 or R1.2 then yes, unfortunately you have to download again.
If you're on R2, and are looking for fixes, then goYou must be registered to see the linksand follow the install instructions - this only works on the R2 version.
It downloads fine for me.This torrent really needs more seed.
The monastary of Koikatsu Shoujo. (That's just a creative way of saying over time in the Koikatsu and AI Shoujo threads)But maybe it will be...

If one out of twenty people click it, it wasn't a total waste.
BTW, in which zen monastery did you train for the last 20 years? That is Buddha level replying!
Actually, first was HaremMate in 2014 and Honey Select in 2016, plus a few others before Koikatsu, THEN it was AI Shoujo. Every game since HaremMate has been in Unity and usually a completely different build from the previous game. This is the first game to use the exact same engine as its predecessor.illusion should stop using unity already, it's not a good engine to begin with and the more they make game with this the worse their game become. first is ai shoujou and now hs 2
i mean, i7 7700 and a bloody gtx 1660 with 16gb ram and both games cannot get to 60fps, i literally have to turn off all the efx, lightning and map to get to 60 fps.
It's actually way better than Daz since Daz is ONLY modeling software.just as rubbish as v1, better off with Daz
Oh, but it does. Any improvement is improvement overall even if it has no direct impact that is plainly visible.HS1 with LRE and IBL is still miles ahead of this. Having higher resolution texture maps and more polys doesnt make the overall graphics better my guy
They used Unity for HS1, it is one of the earliest Illusion games to use that engine and is seen by most as the starting point of the Unity era of Illusion games, which isn't exactly true due to the first being HaremMate two years prior. I can say, very happily so, that the optimization this time around is very well done. My game is running perfectly.Well sure, then lets discuss the base game. Their own engine they used for HS1 was nothing special but allowed LRE to be implemented. Now they switched to a unity based engine and managed to "optimize" it so badly it takes as much resources as modern triple a titles. Sure they upped the resolution of their texture maps and increased poly count, but since the vast majority wont be able to play the game higher than full hd (thanks to a hilariously bad resource managment) if they want more than 30-40 fps, i wouldnt call this game an overall improvement in any regard.
That was because they didn't optimize AI Shoujo well AT ALL.Some fair points there, AIS ran like absolute dogshit on my machine but the reasons for that game's issues have already been pretty well-covered elsewhere.
I get a solid 40 in HS2 in the most complex maps and H-scenes with every currently available graphical tweak turned on, I get that's problematic for some, but when there's dozens of current-gen "AAA" titles literally locked at 30fps, I'm not so fussed about losing frames in a porn simulator.
I certainly won't be streaming it, and having a higher framerate than the next guy isn't giving me any sort of advantage.
I don't know what Illusion are like for patches after release (if at all?), possibly there'll be fixes further down the road either from them, or a REALLY dedicated modder.
Yes, HS2 is a surprisingly heavy load, but so far, every reported performance issue that's actually impacted how the game runs for me (and a lot of people over the last few weeks) has come from mods in the previous repacks, not the game, and those issues have already been patched out.
And as for the "majority" of people not being able to run the game, I see plenty of people across a few forums and Discords I'm in asking whether their dust-filled, ten year-old potato can run this. They probably won't, but that's PC gaming, folks!
You either die a 640x480 potato peasant, or live long enough to become a 4k 60fps snob arguing over which game about dressing-up dollies looks prettier
Took me just a couple hours, but I had literally hundreds of seeds and damn good internet, at least when said internet decided to finally cooperate.Seeding for four days was more than enough thanks.
They don't have more people, they are tiny compared to AAA devs.I am probably spoiled by playing most of my games at 100+ fps too. Its just that the problems HS2 currently has are absolutly not necessary. If they dedicated more people towards resource management/optimization and fixing their Global Illumination (because whats tanking the fps is not the big textures, its the lighting system) this game would be way more enjoyable.

a LOT betterPossibly dumb question but are graphics in this better than HS1? Wanna know if it can run at all on my craptop.
You need a VPN to trick it into thinking you're Japanese.uh, can you download cards from their site with the network option? im really suspicious of that feature.
You've maxed her Hate, or broken her completely. If she complains during H and you have access to the Forced Missionary, then it's Hate, if she's all floppy and useless all of the time without making her cum, then she's broken.Now my turn for a question: I just roamed the halls for my girl and, when I selected her room, ominous music replaced the normal stuff and she sounds like she hates me. What does this mean? I already read the FAQ, no answer, and there is no wiki to be found, I searched.
This is right on encounter, before I get the option to ask for sex. I'll try starting it and seeing what that gets me. Broken is actually what I'm trying to get her to, but I only got pain to rise and nothing else by anything other than actual sex, like spanking. EDIT: There is one called forced position, so I'm guessing hate and I will have to start again if I want to break her. EDIT: I got it, using forced begins to break her. That could be useful to put in the FAQ.You've maxed her Hate, or broken her completely. If she complains during H and you have access to the Forced Missionary, then it's Hate, it's she's all floppy and useless all of the time without making her cum, then she's broken.
You aren't spanking hard enough, then! That should increase Pain, but not as much as horse-whipping does.This is right on encounter, before I get the option to ask for sex. I'll try starting it and seeing what that gets me. Broken is actually what I'm trying to get her to, but I only got pain to rise and nothing else by anything other than actual sex, like spanking.
It's 16Gb of game and 38Gb of optional mods. Every post and download link to the R2 pack explains this, as does the FAQ on the front page.wtf is this game 16GB or 38 dude
at the very top of the forum, there is a search box, click it and type VR into the box to search the thread, and the results will show you posts already answering this question, including one from last night which has info about exactly what you are asking.Any eta when VR support will be added? shows it on the launcher but missing files. First one looked amazing in vr.
I really appreciate how he didn't put this in the readme or anything but instead just threw it down into the comments of some random patreon post. This sort of coordination and organization is why I love the online modding scene.★You must be registered to see the links- 16 Mar 20 12:37
There is a VR mod, but I've had some problems with it so haven't included it in my pack... HS2 is arriving with VR it seems so that'll sort out that for the most part I believe
