Keep it short and simple, I recommend c:\illusion\ but it should work on any partition.Ġ1.
IF YOU DO, you will have to edit the registry: ĭON'T install the game, mod tools, or patch files to a deep folder structure. If it shows Japanese anywhere, or you know it is of Japanese origin, use Applocale.ĭON'T move the game after installing it.
Run almost everything with Applocale - installer, update files, maker and game executables, translated maker loader, etc. This goes for utilities like Wizzard as well. If for some reason you're on Windows 8/8.1 and applocale doesn't work, then you should try Locale Emulator.ĭON'T install anything to the default Japanese-named folders, edit every install directory to something readable.ĭON'T install to Program Files or other system-default directories, or you may not have write access to save characters and games unless you run as admin. ONLY USE EITHER APPLOCALE OR JAPANESE SYSTEM LOCALE, NOT BOTH. If you opt instead to set your system locale to Japanese, REMEMBER TO CHANGE FORMATS (Formats tab in Region settings) to Japanese as well, or text WILL be screwed up, in addition to some things not working/displaying. This guide will serve to counsel new users on installation of the essential components needed to run AA2 in English.īEFORE YOU START: You will need MS Applocale or HF pApplocale if you're on Windows 7 or 8/8.1, if you're on Windows 10 It's highly recommended that you use Locale Emulator as applocale simply doesn't work. Likewise, I don't recommend installing via this method then going to harass Hongfire for support.Ĭomplete Idiot's Guide to Installing Artificial Academy 2, patches, DLC, and mods If you already installed HF patch and want to use this guide, uninstall and wipe your game installation folder, then reinstall from scratch using the directions below. This is for installing manually, in the event that you don't want to wait for HF patch to get updated, or you want finer control over mods you install. ** IF YOU ARE USING THE HF PATCH FOR AA2 ** Just be careful when installing a bunch of mods at the same time.RAW Paste Data Manual Installation Īll Updates : It might cause your game to crash on certain occasion or due to conflict between two mods. Anyway, please note that Mod is not officially supported by KISS. But not all of them provide download link. You can find a lot of mod of CM3D2 on twitter just by using #CM3D2 hash tag on twitter. After that, you just need to pick the right hair, ears, clothes, striker, and even the gun. You need to find specific hair color, faces, body, and every other parts not included in the mod. Making the character looks like Eila takes a bit effort however.
So, all I need to do is extract エイラ folder from the zip file to GameData folder like this.Īfter that, run the game and the option to choose the ears, hair, clothes, and strikers will appear in you game. I am going to use Eila chara mod from Strike Witches from below. Just copy the mod you want to install to GameData directory inside Sybaris directory. Now that you already have Sybaris in your CM3D2 directory. And you should found GameData, Loader, Plugins, Poses, and Preset directories inside Sybaris directory. Sybaris directory must be one level below CM3D2 directory. So how do you install Sybaris? Just extract the files to CM3D2 root directory. Sybaris can be downloaded from this link : So what the hell? It turns out you need to download Sybaris first and extract it to CM3D2 root directory.
Before that, I realize there is no Sybaris folder in CM3D2 directory. You just need to copy the mod files to \Sybaris\GameData in your CM3D2 directory or folder.
