Sadly, I can't. It never occurred to me to upload the mods to a cloud service, and some time after that post my hdd got bricked.
Maintenace edit: As of August 2025 everything still works on Win 10, the Mega link is online, the latest DX-Vulkan is 2.7

I got it to work with the guide from this reddit user:

Hey thank you man, it worked like a charm. Now I gotta to try it other old Illusion games.
Hey man, if you find something that works with Sexy Beach Zero please do share it with me. I did try almost everything (I did not try a VM because that's not worth the hassle, for sure)
Could you make a link to download it? Currently this is a diamond in the rough that is not found anywhere
Never found this answer anywhere, and would love it if someone could help me.
If the HF patch is applied (as is the case with the Platinum pack), body mods won't change the girls' bodies at all. Wizzard will show that they've been successfully applied, but when the game loads up, the girls' bodies are still their default bodies.
If the mods are applied first and then the HF patch is installed, the patch changes their bodies back to defaults.
Does anyone know how to fix this?

First time it ran perfectly. Now I keep getting the error 'Original Sexy Beach 3 is not installed' error...
What I do?

THIS. This isn't stressed enough. I went through every trick in the book and no matter what, the game just wouldn't launch. Until this. Now it works like a charm.

Unzip, go to the x32 folder and copy-paste the file "d3d9.dll" where the executable of the game is.
Sorry the wait btw
I don't mind the wait, I am going to test this soon, even if it does not work, you're an absolute legend.
how can I get the game to run? it opens up once fine but after the 2nd time it doesn't open can someone help me?
same issue for me, it works just fine for me for the first time then when quit and restart, launcher doesn't open unless I remove and change install path, it open once then repeats the issue
