[noble hound]

i downloaded it straight from the link in discord

[stoic sigil]

Yes, but there are three version in the mega: full, lite and patch. Which one did you get?

[noble hound]

oh sorry no i got the full version

[robust mantle]

I just went to the 341 folder and it says it is corrupt or unreadable

[stoic sigil]

Okay, then that error's more strange... Can you go to your game's files' location and check Graphics\CustomBattlers\indexed\7\ for me and see if you have a file called 7.4.png in there (.png may be omitted depending on your file explorer settings)?

[stoic sigil]

The folder or the specific file?

[robust mantle]

The folder

Same for 342

[stoic sigil]

Something has gone wrong when extracting the game then. Don't worry, your save files should be fine, but you're gonna have to delete all the game files (save data is stored elsewhere) and re-extract the game. What program are you using for extraction?

[noble hound]

give me one second ill do this in a minute

[robust mantle]

I have previously had an issue with the game, I had extracted and played it for a few hours, came back the next day and the game wouldn't load so I re-extracted it and it's been fine since until now so I do have a second set of the files in a different folder, can I not take them from the other set and paste them in? Or will that not work?

[stoic sigil]

I don't recommend it, but you can try. In my experience, the game doesn't like being moved around too much

[robust mantle]

Ok that's fine I'll just re-extract the files

[stoic sigil]

But what program are you using for extracting the .zip? Since this issue isn't your first time

If you're using Windows' built-in extractor, it's notorious for corrupting stuff

[robust mantle]

I'm using winrar free

[stoic sigil]

Okay that shouldn't be the cause then

[robust mantle]

Still not sure what caused the first issue either, the launcher would just launch as a background process on the task manager and the alternate launcher would launcher a small black window and then that would be as far as it would get

[turbid terrace]

Hey @robust mantle! Are you having trouble starting the game? If you are launching v5, and your screen is stuck on black at startup, don't worry, it's normal. Leave the game running for a few minutes and it will work eventually.

Do not click on the window during this, otherwise you'll get the error below and the game will close.
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/308392115338084360/994274889055875142/Capture.PNG

[stoic sigil]

The initial launch always takes a while as it loads the assets. The alt launcher takes even longer cause it loads everything (for people who get long transitions during gameplay)

[robust mantle]

Since re extracting and using the new set of files though it would launch up in a few seconds so was very strange

[stoic sigil]

You could try extracting the game to a relatively stable location, like [username]\Documents\infinitefusion, if you haven't

[robust mantle]

Ok if I get any issues with this set I'll try that next time

[stoic sigil]

One more thing to try is checking you WinRAR version and updating it if necessary. You can also try redownloading the game .zip altogether (note that the current version is 5.1.2.4)

[turbid terrace]

Hey @stoic sigil! Are yo having trouble downloading the game? You can find the download of the game in #downloads! To run it, simple unzip all of the files into a folder, then click the .exe file. Be mindful that the game takes a few minutes to load, don't touch the black window before it does!

[robust mantle]

Ok I'll also bare that in mind, I have 5.1.2.3 at the moment

[stoic sigil]

My understanding is that 5.1.2.4 fixes some crucial bugs in 5.1.2.3, so I recommend downloading that (or the patch version just on top if you're already extracting)

[noble hound]

i went into indexed, then found 7.4 everything seems normal?

[stoic sigil]

Can you open it?

[robust mantle]

I've just ran back over to test the crash I was having and it seems fine now, thanks for the help, I'll get the patch soon

[noble hound]

yeah i can open all 4 of them

[stoic sigil]

Looking at your screenshots, are you on Mac?

[noble hound]

yes i thought maybe that had something to do with it ?

[stoic sigil]

Mac is out of my expertise, but the game isn't built for Mac, but there has been some discussion on it if you search for it on this Discord. Here's the latest:
#tech-support message

[noble hound]

all good thank you for the help though

strange i just deleted and redownloaded the game and now it seems to be working fine with no crashes

[stoic sigil]

Hope that luck continues!

[pallid vigil]

do we keep this folder when adding updated sprites?

other folder

[chilly kayak]

You don't need to. The game won't read from it

[pallid vigil]

okay thanks

if its my first time putting in these custom sprites

do i need to follow the corrections folder or nah

also where should i put the eggs

[stoic sigil]

If this is your first time putting in custom sprites you should've downloaded the 1-87 sprite pack, not just 87

Unless of course you don't want most of the other customs for some reason

But to answer your question: No, you don't need the corrections if you don't have previous sprite packs, and naturally corrections aren't included in the full pack containing all sprite packs (1-87) because the corrections are already applied

[pallid vigil]

thanks

[stoic sigil]

Eggs are optional alts (with a few new ones in there) that you can put in Graphics\Battlers\Eggs\

[pallid vigil]

so ill download the 1-87 one and replace the thing i already pasted right

[pallid vigil]

thanks

[stoic sigil]

Yes. I recommend clearing CustomBattlers first as well (NOT the indexed folder, the game uses that!)

[pallid vigil]

hooo boy

this is a big file lol

[pallid vigil]

gotcha

i wont touch indexed

[stoic sigil]

87 packs of sprites totalling nearly 50k images (including alts, but not including optional extras) 😄

[pallid vigil]

yeah thats crazy

super impressive lol

does the fusion calculator have those pics in it or not

cause it really should to show off the sprites

9 minutes of unzipping!!!

haha

[stoic sigil]

It does. They share the same database

[stoic sigil]

That's not even bad based on what I've seen on this channel 😄

[pallid vigil]

i was under the assumption it didnt have it but i guess im mistaken

[pallid vigil]

i cant imagine HDDs

how long have u seen

[stoic sigil]

At least this one does:
https://aegide.github.io/

[stoic sigil]

I may be getting times mixed up with the actual game zips, but even several hours

[pallid vigil]

ayo wtf

several hours is a bit crazy

also my approx time has been upped to 13min

nice

lemme clear up RAM from random stuff

or idk what else to do to smooth the process

[stoic sigil]

But considering that the full game zip does contain the latest sprite pack out of the box it has to be around the same time anyway, maybe minus 1 or 2 hours for the slowest

[pallid vigil]

nvmd RAM doesnt do much

[stoic sigil]

Getting a new CPU lol

[pallid vigil]

lol

turned on turbo mode+turned on GPU

[stoic sigil]

Just gotta be patient and watch pchal's infinite fusion vids in the meantime

[pallid vigil]

it should quicken this process much more

[pallid vigil]

lol

[teal pelican]

So, does anybody know what the problem with this is?

[pallid vigil]

whats the context

[fresh ferry]

what's the minimum system requirement for this game? Because I have leave it running for 20 mins and still black screen after the intro

[turbid terrace]

Hey @fresh ferry! Are you having trouble starting the game? If you are launching v5, and your screen is stuck on black at startup, don't worry, it's normal. Leave the game running for a few minutes and it will work eventually.

Do not click on the window during this, otherwise you'll get the error below and the game will close.

tech support on auto play

[vernal sluice]

I was Trying to Get the racing bicycle and I was doing the quest then i was Fighting a Trainer,and after the battle,I couldnt talk to Any of the Bike trainers and the Npc who gave me the quest,also My auto save Had it where if i defeated him,It would Auto save,What do i do?

[teal pelican]

I just run around and it keeps crashing after sometime, when ecountering a pokemon, It also happened once outside of the grass

[vernal sluice]

What can i do?

[vernal sluice]

And the timer is in my Other save

[timid bridge]

It seems my save file somehow got reset, or something like that. I played for the first time yesterday, started it up again today, and my save file is just at the start of the game. I used the alternate launcher, since the main one didn't let me run modern mode, if that makes any difference.

[hot flicker]

That's because your files are either messed up after extraction, you didn't extract it, or you only extracted the patch

[hot flicker]

Did you ever figure out the bike quest problem?

[hot flicker]

You don't think you accidentally forgot to save?

[timid bridge]

Nah, I had the autosave thing going, and made sure to save twice

[hot flicker]

Have you looked into the folder that has your save files?

[timid bridge]

Yea, last save it shows yesterday 7pm (I was up to like 2am, lmao)

And it's just the creation date of what seems to be when I launched the main launcher

Rather than the alternate one

[hot flicker]

Yeah that is really odd. I don't think there would be any difference between the two launchers. Are you still having the same problem? Have you tried saving it now and try launching it again?

[timid bridge]

I have not, it's fully reset, so got kinda demotivated from playing any further

[hot flicker]

I see :[ Are you on the newest version? I know 5.1 wasn't able to auto save

[fresh ferry]

wait a min where do I extract the patch?

I was extracting the full version and the patch in the same folder

[teal pelican]

does anybody know now? please

[vernal sluice]

Not yet it seen,But the timer is In my Other save which is Weird

But i managed to Break out of the route using the Debugger but entering it again puts me in the same Situation again which made me Use the debugger again

[vernal sluice]

Also forgot to mention,my game is Version: 5.1.1

[pallid sable]

@sterile pivot

[swift sluice]

@sterile pivot

[hot flicker]

I know after failing you need to still finish it. If you leave with out stopping the mini games bugs can occur

[hot flicker]

Yeah you don't extract the patch. They are the same version. Just extract -full

[honest scroll]

does anyone know what the current hex code for magic boots is?

[junior yew]

I am experiencing very long load times between battles and entering a new area like a town or house. I am the most current version. I've read and can confirm that the alt launcher fixes this problem. But that also comes with it own problems. For one the alt launcher takes ages to open. Also the keybinds are different on the alt launcher and pressing f1 to rebind doesn't work. I clear an input and try to record a new one and it doesn't register the input on the controller despite recognizing it and using it for the game. I also have the February sprite pack downloaded. I haven't tested if that is causing the issue or not but either way I'd prefer to have custom sprites. Any fix?

[hot flicker]

Your computer is just struggling. There isn't much you can do. You can always download 3rd party software that emulates keyboard inputs with your controller. The alt launcher taking forever to boot up is normal. That's how the game originally booted up. The custom sprites has no impact on what is causing you problems

[turbid terrace]

Hey @hot flicker! Are yo having trouble downloading the game? You can find the download of the game in #downloads! To run it, simple unzip all of the files into a folder, then click the .exe file. Be mindful that the game takes a few minutes to load, don't touch the black window before it does!

Hey @hot flicker! Are you trying to add more custom sprites to your game? You can find the most up to date sprite pack containing all custom sprites in #downloads! To add them to your game, simply copy all the files into your game's CustomBattlers folder. The pack also contains alts and things such as joke sprites and regional variants, which you can also add to your game if you wish.

You can swap between alts of a given fusion in-game, using the Pokédex!

[junior yew]

I really doubt my computer is struggling on a game like this... it runs other games with much better graphics and require much more processing than this tiny game. So that's definitely not the issue.

[rough idol]

This game is much much more intensive than you would think

[hot flicker]

Its not that your computer is bad, its just this game demands A LOT. Is your game on an SSD?

[junior yew]

Yep

[hot flicker]

Great. What are your specs?

[junior yew]

My specs shouldn't matter and I don't have that on the top of my head I'm away from my laptop at the moment. I play games that demand a lot more than what this game requests and if that was the case than the alt launcher would have long load times too.

[hot flicker]

No no.. the way the alt launcher loads the game is different than the other. It's okay if you don't understand and sort of deny what's happening. I am only trying to help. Its your computer. If you refuse to understand well, we will be here once you upgrade your computer

[junior yew]

Nah I'm just not gonna play it cuz there absolutely 0 reason why this game should be causing my laptop any problems... it's a pokemon game... idk why your acting like it's Crisis or something.

[stoic sigil]

I'm just gonna chime in a bit here... There are a lot more factors than just graphical load. This game doesn't demand much GPU-wise, where it gets difficult is CPU load. The game is made in RPG Maker, which is based on Ruby. Ruby is an interpreted language. That means that instead of programs written with it getting "translated" into a binary format that your computer reads directly, the program is essentially interpreted line-by-line as they are needed. This is inherently a performance challenge when the program grows more complex, but it has its benefits as well, which is why they're still used at all. Combine that with how the assets are mostly just raw files (like .png images and .mp3 audio files) and it gets heavy to process. This is not to critique the game's design, just stating facts; it's a fangame started by a single person and it's very impressive at that.

[terse jacinth]

So quick question, my game doesnt have any sound whatsoever, first time this has happened actually, all of the volume sliders are up, my laptops sound is up, but nothing is happening

[stoic sigil]

And other programs still play sounds normally?

[terse jacinth]

Yep, i even tried plugging it into an hdmi to see if it will play sounds through my tv but its just this game

Is there perhaps a keybind for the game that mutes it that i may have pressed on accident?

[stoic sigil]

This issue is certainly a new one for me... Haven't come across such a keybinding myself. Let's rule out one more thing first: Launch the game, then right click on the sound icon to the bottom right and select the mixer. Check that the game's volume slider hasn't somehow ended up at 0

[terse jacinth]

Nope its completely silent still volume is up

Think i might try shutting off my laptop fully, not sure how that might help, but who knows, my laptop likes to be a pain in the rear

[stoic sigil]

You can try that, then if it doesn't help send a screenshot of the game's folder (the one with the .exe's) and check if you can play some of the .mp3 files found in the Audio folder

[terse jacinth]

Oki dokie, it may take a bit because now my laptop is forcing an update

[slow torrent]

(dont know if this is the right channel to ask this)
from what i understood , to play with the fan made sprites. do i need to just put the sprite folder in the custombattlers folder( like pic rel)?
or do i need to put the actual sprites individually in the custombattlers folder? if so what do i do with the rest of the stuff in the sprite pack?

[terse jacinth]

Ah yep, it was my laptop just bein a pain in the keister

[stoic sigil]

You need to move the image files directly to CustomBattlers, it doesn't look into subfolders. You can Ctrl+A to select all. The rest of the stuff is optional and/or alternative sprites. If the alt sprites have a letter at the end, you can just drop the in with the rest, the others will overwrite existing ones. You could, for example, move all the alts to CustomBattlers first and then move the main sprites on top and let them overwrite any dupe alts. Most of the other stuff is jokes and things that don't actually affect the game

[stoic sigil]

Glad that was that simple!

[vernal sluice]

alr

[placid ledge]

Why swapping the alternative sprites doesn't work? It often defaults to the original sprite or its other altsprite.

[slow torrent]

whats the deal with the alts with letters at the end? they dont replace the original so when do they appear in game ?

[stoic sigil]

They go into the pokedex's sprites section, where you can choose which one you want to see in game

[sterile parrot]

Am I allowed to self promo

[covert remnant]

So I’m having a problem where I can’t download the full sprite pack from the drive because my “connection isn’t secure”
Has anybody else run into this problem, and possibly know how to fix it?

[turbid terrace]

Hey @covert remnant! Are you trying to add more custom sprites to your game? You can find the most up to date sprite pack containing all custom sprites in #downloads! To add them to your game, simply copy all the files into your game's CustomBattlers folder. The pack also contains alts and things such as joke sprites and regional variants, which you can also add to your game if you wish.

[split mortar]

anyone able to help with this?

[nocturne spire]

I need help. I downloaded the game but when i start it, it just says ¨Code execution cannot continue because x64-msvcrt-ruby310.dll cannot be found. Try reinstalling the program¨. Does anybody know how to fix it?

Update: Now it says ¨error opening OpenAL device¨

[stoic sigil]

Delete all the game files and re-extract them into a folder that's located somewhere sensible, like your Documents folder. Also make sure you have either the full or the light version, not the patch

[tawdry moth]

i cant load up the game and this is what pops up. Im not techy so i dont understand any of this.

idk if this is the right place to post this

[hot flicker]

go to that file path. Graphics --> Battlers ---> 139

[split mortar]

gonna repeat this, what do I do with this error?

[hot flicker]

are you on modern mode?

[split mortar]

yup

[hot flicker]

try extracting the game again and play the save from that extraction but don't delete your original extraction

[split mortar]

aight

im doing that rn in a new folder

[nocturne spire]

it still says ¨error opening OpenAL device¨

[hot flicker]

Thats because your game can't output its sound.

[random stirrup]

I need help finding my save file on steam deck

[hot flicker]

plug in headphones or mess with your settings

[split mortar]

happened again guv

[nocturne spire]

i feel so dumb

[random stirrup]

I can wait for this other stuff to be handled, I’ll just keep going through my index

(Not for the save, for other reasons)

[hot flicker]

Not sure what you are talking about but this is where my save is kept. It goes, Home > .local > share > Steam > steamapps > compatdata > 2690327766 > pfx > drive_c > users > steamuser > AppData

[hot flicker]

there is a fix but I am trying to find it here. You have to remove the modern mode settings basically and force the game to play the giovanni fight a different way

[split mortar]

ah alright

[nocturne spire]

Thanks for the help ( i followed you tutorial for downloading the game)

[split mortar]

ill boot up the old version, cuz i've got an old save

see if that works

[random stirrup]

Oh, i was just making sure you didn’t think I thought my save would potentially be in the custom battlers index 😅 I’ll see if my save is in that location

[hot flicker]

Hey no worries. Glad to have helped. Hope the tutorial went smooth

[nocturne spire]

it did

[random stirrup]

Darn, seems i have a different number folder. I’ll have to check a few of these

[tawdry moth]

I can’t find it :/

[mint lance]

Guys, I'm trying to play this game on JoiPlay, but I keep getting "Script 'Main'line 35: ScriptError ocurred". Any help?

[true plover]

Every time I use double team this happens

Sorry for pinging u guys 3-4 times I’m just a lil impatient 😕

[tawdry moth]

Nvm found it

What next?

[stoic sigil]

Can you take a screenshot so that the error's actually readable

[true plover]

Yes lol

Better or no?

[stoic sigil]

Just about readable (tip: open the start menu and search for Snipping Tool to take proper screenshots)

[true plover]

You want me to type what it says

I can read it

[random stirrup]

Ok i cant find it (not even sure which folder in compatdata is infinite fusion, figured out what a few of them were tho, hopefully the games are ok with me leaving a text file in pfx that says what they are because idk coding)
However I realized I’m pretty tired so I’m gonna come back to this after a nap

[true plover]

Script `009_PokeBattle_Clauses.rb ‘ Line 110 SystemStackErorr Occurred. Stack level too deep

Is that good enough or are you gonna need a readable screenshot? Because I can try that too, no promises though since I’m very new to computers

Using my phone rn

[turbid terrace]

Hey @true plover! The game isn't made to be played on mobile! You can try to use Joiplay to run it, but the game will likely be very slow, glitchy, or downright unplayable.

You can try following this guide: https://youtu.be/jADyChlJbF0

Nothing can likely be done about issues experienced on mobile, unfortunately. You can ask for help in the video's comments section if you'd like.

No dedicated mobile version of IF will be developed in the future.

[stoic sigil]

That's good, thanks, but I'm afraid this is too obscure for me to trace like this. Stack level too deep might mean a memory issue in this case

[true plover]

So like a save file missing?

Because I took my original save file and stuck it on my desktop when I deleted everything and redownload the latest version

Because I couldn’t figure out how to patch the game

[stoic sigil]

No, just something likely out of your hands

[true plover]

Ah fair enough

Hmm soooo what happens now?

[stoic sigil]

I recommend just avoiding double team in that scenario for now, see if you can get around it. But if you can describe how to reproduce the error reliably, that could be useful

[true plover]

Ya every time I use the move no matter where, this happens

I’ll do it again one sec

[stoic sigil]

So just use double team in any battle?

Seems like something we'd see here more often if it was a code bug...

[true plover]

Yes wild or trainer

It may just be a me problem tbh

[stoic sigil]

Does it happen right on the first use every time?

[true plover]

Ye

Ohhh now it works 🤦

It suddenly started working

Ima go for two in a row just in case

Ya idk what was wrong but it works now

[stoic sigil]

Okay so it might be some really specific scenario, like the enemy using a certain move while you use double team or something

Bugs are fun like that

[true plover]

I was shiny hunting Ray but now I’m not so maybe it was ray

I hate technology sometimes 🙃

Sorry about all this lol

[stoic sigil]

The error points to a double team -specific function so maybe there's something there

[stoic sigil]

No no, it's always valuable to identify potential bugs

[stoic sigil]

Imagine this is gonna be my future job

[true plover]

Ya true but I feel bad for wasting your time

I feel as though I should pray for you lol

If this is gonna be your future job

It seems stressful to help people like me out all the time

[stoic sigil]

It's like that sometimes, hunting down an obscure error that suddenly goes away and you're not sure if you fixed it but feel like you did nothing and now you're just gonna be paranoid

[true plover]

Yes exactly

I’m scared that I’m gonna be in the middle of something important and use double team and that’s gonna happen again

But fingers crossed, thank you btw

[stoic sigil]

Save often (in this game in general)

[true plover]

Yes

Thanks again 😊

[stoic sigil]

No problem!

[keen terrace]

anyone able to help when it comes to getting the unzip, its saying itll take about 45 min atm. and where to i copy the new sprites at by chance?

[stoic sigil]

Unzipping the file will take a while depending on your machine unfortunately, there's a lot of stuff and especially the sprites are heavy to extract. You can get the light version to speed it up but then you gotta remember to let it enable the sprite downloading option when it asks to do it.
The new sprites go to Graphics\CustomBattlers\ directly, it won't detect any subfolders.

Hey i just started and got some sprite problems, some just dont seem right, attacks are way to high up and status effects like burn are cut of and i can only see the top half, just want to make sure my game dosnt break or that i corrupt my savefile

I'd been playing for awhile, but now this error keeps appearing whenever I try to start the game

[frigid sun]

Getting a NoMethodError when I try to start the new version

[keen terrace]

Apparent after the download I'm "missing Game.ini?"

[turbid terrace]

Hey @keen terrace! Are you having trouble starting the game? If you're getting the "missing Game.ini" error, your game is not finding its necessary folders for some reason. Here's a list of things that may fix the issue:

1. Make sure that you have extracted the files from the ZIP, and aren't running the game straight from the zipped folder.
2. Make sure the game.exe file is in the folder with everything else. You might've moved it while trying to make a shortcut or something.
3. Rename the folder with the extracted files to a name without numbers or special characters, e.g. "PokemonInfiniteFusion".
4. Move the entire folder somewhere else on your computer. Moving it to the desktop seems to work for most people.
5. Redownload and re-extract the game in full.

[keen terrace]

i havent moved anything i just went from the extract to here now

[stoic sigil]

Where did you extract to?

[keen terrace]

from the folder itself or do i need to localize it into a new folder?

sorry i dont really do roms often this is kinda new to me

[stoic sigil]

I meant where to, where are the game files

[keen terrace]

its just in my files

[stoic sigil]

But like where as in downloads, documents? Are the game files in a folder of their own?

[turbid terrace]

Hey @stoic sigil! Are yo having trouble downloading the game? You can find the download of the game in #downloads! To run it, simple unzip all of the files into a folder, then click the .exe file. Be mindful that the game takes a few minutes to load, don't touch the black window before it does!

[keen terrace]

sorry smol brain moment atm

[sweet crow]

Need help

[keen terrace]

that all i get atm

from both alt and orig launcher

[stoic sigil]

That's odd. Try moving the game folder somewhere other than downloads, like C:\Users\[your username]\Documents\

[stoic sigil]

hey um i have a bit of an issue. i went to download the sprites and i kinda skipped over a few steps and now the sprites wont work. can i fix it??

[stoic sigil]

See the other messages in #downloads

[stoic sigil]

Custom sprites won't work or the game crashes?

[proper dragon]

they just wont work

i tired fixing it the best way i knew how but still nothing

tried*

[stoic sigil]

You need to place the image files directly to Graphics\CustomBattlers\

[proper dragon]

all of them?

[proper dragon]

lol okay thanks. ill see if that fixes it

[chilly mango]

my game keeps crashing and I don't know why

[keen terrace]

Thank you so much, i had to pull from main SSD, and swapped it to a sata ssd for my pc but that worked for some reason, when i downloaded it half of the files with to my sata sd and the other half with to the evo ssd

but both the alt and main laucher are running for now and hopefully stay that way

[proper dragon]

I tried to fix it and then it did this

[stoic sigil]

Okay maybe you did some damage initially after all... I recommend deleting the game files and re-extracting, start from a clean slate and move the sprites correctly into CustomBattlers this time. Your saves will be fine, they're located elsewhere

[proper dragon]

Okay what all do I need to download again- just so I know what to delete

Omg it's not letting me delete it

[stoic sigil]

If you still have the original game zip you don't need to re-download, just delete the game files

[stoic sigil]

What does it say?

[stoic sigil]

I didn't mean the sprite pack, I meant the game

[proper dragon]

omg im stupid

im sorry im not tech savvy at all

um how do i do that?

[stoic sigil]

You navigate to where you have the game files (where the .exe files are that you use to run the game) and delete everything there, from Audio folder to zlib1.dll

You can press Ctrl+A to select everything

[torpid yarrow]

is it common for the game to crash when mons evolve? my screen keeps going black when im trying to evolve something

then if i click the game i get an rgss error

[turbid terrace]

Hey @torpid yarrow! Are you having trouble starting the game? If you are launching v5, and your screen is stuck on black at startup, don't worry, it's normal. Leave the game running for a few minutes and it will work eventually.

Do not click on the window during this, otherwise you'll get the error below and the game will close.
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/308392115338084360/994274889055875142/Capture.PNG

[torpid yarrow]

i tried the light version and the normal version and it worked neither way

the light version i couldn't even send out my mons

[stoic sigil]

Sounds like you're missing sprites. In the light version you need to have the option to download sprites enabled, the full version should have them right off the gate however. Would be helpful to see the crash message

[torpid yarrow]

ok - next time it comes up ill send

[astral rover]

is it normal for my screen to freeze on the black screen that says "version 5.1.2" if i just patched it? im worried i did it wrong.... i took all of the content within the patch folder and moved it to the existing folder and hit replace all. i wasn't supposed to drag the entire folder in right? just the contents of it

[turbid terrace]

[stoic sigil]

If it prompted you to replace all and the game folder's contents didn't visually change drastically, you probably did it right

[proper dragon]

It's not letting me delete

[stoic sigil]

Try restarting your PC and then trying again

[proper dragon]

ok

[astral rover]

I’m on a Mac it prompted me to replace each individually

Visually didn’t drastically change no

[sonic carbon]

How do you fix the slow load times?

[proper dragon]

Okay okay I restarted and all the files are gone. So I just need to redownload everything?

[stoic sigil]

Should be good then. But note that the game isn't built for Mac, you can search the discord for more mac info, some seem to have gotten it to work, some haven't

[stoic sigil]

Try the alternate launcher

[stoic sigil]

That's a bit strange behaviour, but sure, if you don't have the original game zip anymore

[proper dragon]

Let's hope this works

If not I'm gonna scream

[astral rover]

Ok so I’ll just take the black screen as a normal thing. I’ve been playing 5.1.1 fine, but this is the first time I’m patching so trying to make sure I’m doing it right

[turbid terrace]

[astral rover]

Thanks for your help I’ll check to see if it’s working later tonight

[stoic sigil]

Good luck

There have been talks about similar issues on this channel before that you can search for, FerrousLupus has dealt with them more than me

[hasty lantern]

Hello folks, I hate to be a bother, but I've swapped sprites in the pokedex for a fused mon, but it remains stubbornly on the original sprite.

As in, after I confirm the sprite I want, the pokedex flips back to the default sprite. Have I done something wrong?

The only one that seems to be doing this is Hoothoot/NidoranF.

[sonic carbon]

Thanks it worked

[lucid wolf]

i just noticed that some of my tilesets are in ".PNG" and not ".png", does this matter?

holy i just noticed that the one with capitals are the places that have black tiles when i enter

[timid bridge]

Sorry, was busy; should be, yea, but I still manually saved twice (the good ol' "wait, did I save properly")

[random stirrup]

Ok, nap taken, still cant find the save file. I use lutris to run infinite fusion if that makes any difference.
I looked in this string of stuff but none of the folders in compatdata have that number and none of the 9 folders that have some connection to wine (a folder that mentions it) have any save data at the end of the string. I checked every folder within each of their App data folders. I also checked the save file folder. None of thosw have anything

[hot flicker]

Yeah mine will be a bit different since I am using steam to play the game. But in a way it should be similar. Did you try doing a search for just app data?

[stoic sigil]

Considering how the game can't recognize sprites with a capitalized extension, it's probably the same thing

[lucid wolf]

i just tested and i still get the black tiles

[stoic sigil]

You should be able to safely rename them to be lowercase

[lucid wolf]

maybe i should follow a tutorial above?

[turbid yoke]

version5.1.2.4(last version also happened) Do you know what may be causing this issue?

[hot flicker]

thats just the game

It's loading assets as you walk around. It is normal

[turbid yoke]

all the time?

[hot flicker]

yes'm

[stoic sigil]

Just had a look at the tilesets and I know for a fact I haven't had any issues with these tiles despite the extension

[lucid wolf]

this is all very weird

[torpid yarrow]

does anyone else have to wait a very long time for fusions and such to form?

feels unreasonable like the game is trying to process

idk if thats standard or what

[hot flicker]

Sometimes. Do you speed up the game with Q?

[torpid yarrow]

yes

is that part of the problem?

[hot flicker]

No. It just makes it faster. But are there any other times your game appears to be slow?

[torpid yarrow]

its whenever i fuse, evolve

right now its happening in the box

it took 5 min to fuse pinco and paris

not sure if its better to run the game locally or online

[stoic sigil]

Jeez, you on the light version?

[hot flicker]

O.O

[torpid yarrow]

wasnt before trying that now

[stable tusk]

Game will freeze for a minute or two if I scroll through more than 3 pokemon at any given time. This last time it froze for only 30 seconds before giving me this error.

[torpid yarrow]

might just restart my pc and see if that helps

already tried uninstalling and reinstalling

[stoic sigil]

The light version is definitely not gonna be faster since it has to download each sprite on-demand

[torpid yarrow]

damn

[hot flicker]

are you on the lite version?

[stoic sigil]

If you're using the light version, it's probably getting overwhelmed by the sprite download requests, and you can try to amend that by switching to full and turning off sprite downloading. Otherwise it's most likely something that can't be helped without a pc hardware upgrade

[lucid wolf]

i wonder if my problem is a hardware problem

huh

[stoic sigil]

Did you try actually opening the tileset image files that contain those missing tiles? Maybe they're just corrupted or something

[stable tusk]

I'm pretty sure I am on the full version, but is there a way to check? I've manually downloaded the whole spritepack again just in case, and it's still doing this. And I'm running a 5600x with 3060ti, so I would hope it not a hardware problem.

[lucid wolf]

maybe they are? some of them looked like it has missing spaces

other than that i can open them

[stoic sigil]

You can check the original game zip you downloaded to see if it says light (both light and full have full at the end, but light has light before the version number if I remember correctly. You could also very tediously go through Graphics\Battlers\ to see if you find a missing sprite, the full version has them all.
Is the game on an SSD?

[stoic sigil]

You could try extracting just the tilesets from the game zip and replace those, maybe even redownload the zip first

But you had already tried reinstalling no?

[lucid wolf]

i dont remember about redownloading tho

but yea i tried reinstalling

[stable tusk]

Original zip is Full, but I've patched the game twice since then so I am going to try reinstalling the newest version fully now. It's on an SSD too.

[torpid yarrow]

does this run better on an SSD?

[stoic sigil]

Sounds like a good plan

[stoic sigil]

SSD is way faster at reading and writing so definitely, when dealing with this many image files etc.

[torpid yarrow]

alright ill try moving it there after this reboot

[stoic sigil]

I'd compare this file to my own but I'm already away from my pc

[frigid sun]

is there anything that can be done about this?

[hot flicker]

what does your folder look like?

[frigid sun]

it's on an external hard drive if it matters

[hot flicker]

That might be the problem. I have heard external devices arent the best for the game

[frigid sun]

It was working for the 4.9. I'll move it over and see what happens.

[turbid yoke]

would playing in the alternate version fix this?, life is miserable playing like this

[stable tusk]

Installed latest 5.1.2.4-Full, manually added the complete sprite pack, still freezing after 3 pokemon in the dex. This wasn't happening before the new sprite pack, so I wonder if there's something in the new pack causing issues :/

[torpid yarrow]

yea ok i mean its still not working

even after moving to ssd

guess ill have to wait for a patch or something

[oblique monolith]

So i accidentally killed moltres, and after the fact saved he wont respawn even after redefeating the e4

[hot flicker]

Like I said, that's normal. Everyone gets that stutter

[hot flicker]

what about Mt. Silver?

[turbid yoke]

im watching PointCrow's game and it goes fine. And that the game stops every 3seconds of walking doesnt seem very normal, idk

[oblique monolith]

havent tried that yet

was trying to get arceus before that

[hot flicker]

He might have the game going really quickly and you may not notice it? IDK. I have put over 100 hours into the game and it happens A LOT. Does he have footage of walking around near Koga's gym or the Safari zone entrance? It lags a lot there

[stoic sigil]

Did you try turning off sprite downloading in the options?

[random stirrup]

Oh, I think i found it! Is the save file called File A.rxdata?

[hot flicker]

Thats it

[random stirrup]

For reference for future people with the problem. It was in Home > .wine > drive_c > users > deck > AppData > Roaming > infinitefusion

[stable tusk]

Thank you! I didn't check that till now, and it's fixed. Weird that downloading sprites was taking 1-2 minutes per 3 sprites it downloaded. Guess the host server is under heavy load or something

[turbid yoke]

hey, after launching the alternate version it doesnt flicker anymore, so problem solved(i hope).

[hot flicker]

Okay good. The alternate launcher does make the game load things better. Hope it lasts

[stoic sigil]

Glad that worked. I haven't dug deep enough into the downloading logic yet but my understanding was that it shouldn't be running checks if the sprites exist, have to have a look at some point with this in mind

[frigid sun]

still happening, tried both launchers

[frigid sun]

tried running in admin, it doesn't want to behave for the warden

[fading flicker]

Hey I'm on a mac just downloaded the latest full version, the latest sprite pack, wine and winebottler, but whenever I try and open the .exe with wine nothing happens. Anyone have a similar problem?

[gilded pond]

hey question, i just replaced and downloaded a new sprite for unown/unown and it isnt showing

[ebon fjord]

hello, bot couldn't help me, where am I supposed to extract ".git", "other" and "unfused icons" files?

[drifting swallow]

I'm trying to migrate an old save file from a 4.9 to 5.1, I've tested the file in 4.9 and its working perfectly, but when I launch the 5.1 version of the game after both using the migrate.bat and manually copy/pasting the save I get this message:

[frigid sun]

hey, also getting that problem and waiting to see what's going on with that

[quiet vortex]

How do I install the February Sprite pack

[turbid terrace]

Hey @quiet vortex! Are you trying to add more custom sprites to your game? You can find the most up to date sprite pack containing all custom sprites in #downloads! To add them to your game, simply copy all the files into your game's CustomBattlers folder. The pack also contains alts and things such as joke sprites and regional variants, which you can also add to your game if you wish.

You can swap between alts of a given fusion in-game, using the Pokédex!

[quiet vortex]

automated tech support is pretty cool

[drifting swallow]

I tried this but it didn't work for me

[sterile pivot]

My request is broken

Whats happrning?

Help ASAP

[quiet vortex]

do I replace the already there custombattlers folder

not asking the bot but like continuing my thing

[frigid sun]

getting into a pokecenter didn't help me either

[drifting swallow]

gonna try downloading 5.0 -> migrate the save -> patch the game to 5.1 to see if that works, wish me luck

[sterile pivot]

If someone can help let me know

[polar moon]

i fixed it by deleting all my saves except for the keybind n try again

i didnt even start the game yet so

[drifting swallow]

👀

that

that kinda makes sense

didn't work for me :(

@frigid sun oh damn, my save file works when i downloaded version 5.0 and migrated to that instead of 5.1

[slender totem]

Mine is. I wanted to delete everything and have a "pokedex" of pictures when i finished the game, but custom sprites would download and remember they were downloaded, where as base sprites would redownload every few sprites. Finally just turned the option off.

[frigid sun]

I'll see if that does anything for me

[drifting swallow]

a bit annoying having to download the whole other version though

[drifting sinew]

I am new here and I also have a script-error message upon trying to start the game

(sorry it's so big)

any way around these?

I don't even have a save file yet

[sterile pivot]

I just downloaded the latest version and the game does not open and shows this message instead. What do I do?

[drifting swallow]

did you migrate an older save?

[sterile pivot]

I tried that at first but then thought that that was the issue so I moved the save file out.

[drifting swallow]

try downloading version 5.0 -> migrate to that -> save the game in 5.0 -> reopen 5.1 -> profit

[sterile pivot]

thing is, my old version was a really old version 4.5.8. What do I do from there?

[hoary moth]

An elekid is following me, calling himself an eevee. and I cant enter sewers because I have an pokemon following me

[frigid sun]

no dice. I can open it in 5.0, but 5.1 still gives me the same error message

[drifting swallow]

did you save the game again once in 5.0?

[frigid sun]

yep

[drifting swallow]

sorry :/ no idea then

at least 5.0 works i guess?

[fallow depot]

I'm having problems getting the game started on my laptop I can't figure it out

[sterile pivot]

And I tried looking everywhere to find version 5.0 and could not find it. Only could find 4.9.2. Does that work as well?

[frigid sun]

you find 5.0 in the older downloads folder when you download 5.1

[frigid sun]

what do you mean by deleting all saves?

[cedar fiber]

Hey so I recently updated my game to the latest version, everything went fine except I am unable to use the pokeradar and I’m unable to encounter wild Pokémon in grass, water, or caves. What I do remember is that I use a max repel right before I saved so I’m suspecting that somehow messed up the game. What do I do

[vale timber]

Im getting game freezes everywhere randomly and I dont know why

[lime sand]

Does this guide still work? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvqXltkYIao I dont have or atleast see custom battlers in the sprite pack

Nvm i figured out my issue

[honest tulip]

Hey @tall holly how do people get those threads? Or like undo a suggestion?

I can't find it in the pin

My image there is wrong right now

[tall holly]

You want a thread under your suggestion?

[honest tulip]

Just to show the updated image

Thread not necessary I guess

[deft drift]

it does, just put your sprites in the custombattlers folder

[lime sand]

Thanks for the reply I figured it out now : )

[deft drift]

the story has changed a lot at this point, so a lot of the original 4.x saves aren't really compatible with 5.x saves anymore - you can try it but it's not guaranteed to work (and mostly not supported)

[rugged acorn]

do they just need to be loose in that folder or can they be in a folder in that folder? having issues myself.

[deft drift]

loose, inside another folder won't work

once you restart the game they'll be imported into Custombattlers/Indexed

[rugged acorn]

ah, that'll probably be it then. was that always the case? i might not have even been getting the last couple sprite packs lol

it also just might not like me trying to switch to the Light version of the game with a pre-existing save.

is everything else fine to just stay in folders in the CustomBattlers folder?

[astral rover]

having trouble launching my game after installing the patch. could use a little help figuring out why. perhaps this screenshot of the folder contents will help? i dont know much about tech stuff, but does any of this look weird or wrong?

it was working fine before i installed the patch

[safe quail]

What are u running on

This doesn't look like windows file explorer

Which is the only system the game is made for

[astral rover]

it's a mac, but it was working fine before i replaced stuff with the patch stuff. just wondering if there's anything that looks weird here that could be the problem other than it running on a different system

[safe quail]

Depending on what ur running the game thru, performance issues are known for mac

Earlier versions are more compatible so it makes sense that an update would be running worse

[astral rover]

ah, i c ic. thank you

[rugged acorn]

so did the auto update for sprites not work because i'm getting the Light version after the new sprites were out? or because i was using a save from the non-Light version?

i feel like it should have at least generated bad sprites for the pokemon i had though.

[safe quail]

The download sprites feature is

Strange

Atm

[bronze swan]

I can't download Joiplay on my phone as it says it was made for an older version of Androids. Is there another App that I can use?

[turbid terrace]

Hey @bronze swan! The game isn't made to be played on mobile! You can try to use Joiplay to run it, but the game will likely be very slow, glitchy, or downright unplayable.

You can try following this guide: https://youtu.be/jADyChlJbF0

Nothing can likely be done about issues experienced on mobile, unfortunately. You can ask for help in the video's comments section if you'd like.

No dedicated mobile version of IF will be developed in the future.

[safe quail]

Save should transfer seamlessly between light and non-light but there are many known issues with the download sprites feature

[bronze swan]

Ok, nevermind then

[gilded pond]

Hey so I thought I put a new custom sprite for unown/unown and it said that one was imported but when I checked my unown combo it didn't use the new sprite

Is that user error

[safe quail]

Most likely

Have u checked the sprite section of ur pokedex to see if u can swap them

Or did u overwrite the base sprite

[gilded pond]

i just downloaded directly from #sprite-gallery and put it in my custom battlers

was i not supposed to do that

[safe quail]

That's fine but depending on the exact filename used there may be issues

If the game recognized it and didn't ask u to replace, it should've been added fine

So check ur pokedex for that entry

[gilded pond]

I'll check rn and let u know

But it did ask me to replace

[safe quail]

If it did then it should've replaced fine, is it using the default custom sprite or an autogenerated sprite

[gilded pond]

So apparently, in the custom battles, rheres like 4 different sprites for unown, unown

[safe quail]

Yea

The game should be able to swap between them using the pokedex

[gilded pond]

How do I get it to be the one I want

O ok

thank you so much

[safe quail]

U probably ended up replacing one of the other alt sprites

May've even been the same one lol

[gilded pond]

Probs but I got it

I can now throw a biblically accurate angel at children

My dream come true

[plush mantle]

i am unsure what i did wrong? I have the game.ini file in the folder as well </3

[safe quail]

There could be a few reasons why

In what folder do u have the game rn

[plush mantle]

Well i extracted it into the same folder it was in after i extracted it so it'd be Pokemon Infinite Fusions Download links

[safe quail]

I meant

What folder do u have the game folder in

If it's in downloads

U should move it out of there

[plush mantle]

Oh hey moving the folder to my deskop let it boot up!

thanks :)

[safe quail]

yup

[fallow depot]

I'm having problems getting the game started on my laptop I can't figure it out

[astral rover]

New patch works!! Just downloaded the full instead of patch. Also got the new sprites loaded in tho, it’s turned one of my pokemon’s sprites blank. Anyone know a fix for this ?

[safe quail]

If u are on the non-light version of the game, and/or u have installed the 1-87 sprite pack, try turning off the download sprites setting in options

A typo in its function has been causing issues with fetching sprites

If it's only 1 of ur pokemon's sprites, u can try to locate that sprite in the files and see if it's been sorted correctly

[astral rover]

Once I turn off download sprites, should I restart the game and it’ll work?

[fallow depot]

I have tried reinstalling like 5 times any other suggestions?

[safe quail]

It might, I don't know the exact cause of ur issue in this case

[safe quail]

If u don't have this .dll I can pass it to u and hope that's the only thing ur missing but it's probs not

If u do have that .dll and the game's not recognizing it, I don't know of a fix

[fallow depot]

Okay I have it I tried the other versions and it is basically the same thing

The oldest one doesn't even give me a error message just doesn't launch

[safe quail]

Out of curiosity why are u trying to run 5.0.36 in particular

[fallow depot]

No reason I have tried them all I swear

[safe quail]

That's fine I just don't have experience troubleshooting versions earlier than 5.1.1.1

[safe quail]

It's worth noting that this folder is titled patch.zip so I wouldn't expect it to have complete files

However this doesn't explain why the 5.0.36 version is missing its .dll

[plucky sorrel]

can someone help with this

[plucky sorrel]

@safe quail

[safe quail]

Sec I'm dealing with like 4 people rn lol

[fallow depot]

You are fine with me

[plucky sorrel]

oh ok

[safe quail]

I actually can't send the file in DMs bc of file size @fallow depot so if ur missing this .dll add it to ur main game folder

[plucky sorrel]

@safe quail pls ping me and help me when you have time

[safe quail]

So ur safe to break that operation, but both errors confuse me

If u open the archive, are the files there

[plucky sorrel]

they arent there

[safe quail]

Did u notice any issues downloading

[plucky sorrel]

No

[safe quail]

And u downloaded from the mega?

[proud orchid]

Hi there! I've been enjoying the game on its normal unrandomized mode since the day before. Today I've been trying to enter the game in randomized mode but ive been getting this error. May i ask for some help 🙂 Script 003 interpreter.rb line 189

[plucky sorrel]

yeah

[safe quail]

Rando has been having issues lately

I would not recommend using rando on the current version

If u are experiencing these issues

[proud orchid]

alright thank you, so i should download a previous version and enter rando?

[safe quail]

I believe that should work

5.1.1.1 is the latest stable version

[safe quail]

If u check the Mega, does it tell u how much uve downloaded?

[plucky sorrel]

Well the thing is i dont have a account

[proud orchid]

thanks man!

[safe quail]

That's fine

If ur .zip is empty then the only thing I can recommend is downloading it again

If u open the new archive and that's empty as well, try the mediafire link in xillo's bio

[plucky sorrel]

The thing is the game worked before but thats when i could download the would thing

Now i have to download it step by step because you would have to pay to download all together

[safe quail]

That may be ur issue

If u were being rate limited by mega

I would suggest skipping straight to downloading from the mediafire link

That being said

the typical mega limit is 5GB

And the biggest version available is 1.41GB

So unless uve been downloading other things off mega u shouldn't be hitting the limit

[plucky sorrel]

When the thing is i been downloading it multiple times because the game would not work

[safe quail]

That's fair

[fair oyster]

hi guys, quick question, where do all these files go if I want to use all the new sprites?

[safe quail]

If u want to use the new battle sprites, only the files in the custombattlers folder are needed

Open that folder and copy all contents into the custombattlers folder in ur game files

[fair oyster]

the other files are used for?

[safe quail]

Various things

They require more manual handling in order to utilize

[fair oyster]

ahh

guess i'll not mess with tem just yet

[plucky sorrel]

@safe quail Is there a way to remove space or get more space without paying

[solid crypt]

Installing that same pack now raxeus, curious how I cycle between the new sprites?

[safe quail]

From the Mega download? No, it's not space that's being limited, it's data. U already downloaded that data, there is no un-downloading it to make room

[safe quail]

U should be able to cycle sprites using the pokedex

[solid crypt]

Awesome, thanks

[plucky sorrel]

wait so why cant i download everything at once without mega making me pay?

[safe quail]

U are not supposed to be downloading the entire mega folder, which is 5.1GB. U are supposed to be downloading only 1 of those .zips within the folder

According to ur needs

In ur current situation u would have to wait until u are no longer rate limited to download

[plucky sorrel]

I have waited but either the time would reset or it would not let me download it

[safe quail]

Then I suggest using the mediafire link located in Xillo's bio, as I mentioned before

[plucky sorrel]

Are these links in download?

[safe quail]

No they are in Xillo's bio

[plucky sorrel]

Oh ok sorry

[frozen galleon]

I got that error just from starting up the game, and I'm not doing a randomized mode at all. :/

[safe quail]

U may be getting an error that look similar

May I see a screenshot?

[solid crypt]

so updating from 4.9.2 to 5.1.2 seems to have broken my game, going to just do a fresh install and pray my save still works

[frozen galleon]

One sec, let me try to start it up again

[safe quail]

Generally speaking

4.0 saves seem to be incompatible with 5.1

[solid crypt]

Darn 😦

[safe quail]

Are u on windows and what version .zip did u download from the mega?

[frozen galleon]

Windows 10 I believe? And I'm using the latest version, 5.1.2.4

[safe quail]

Can I see the main game folder, as well as its filepath if it does not reveal any personal information?

[solid crypt]

Oh there is a .bat file to migrate save files over 😄

[safe quail]

There is

I don't think I've seen it work once

U can try tho

[frozen galleon]

I'm not sure what you mean by file path. :x

[safe quail]

the location the folder is stored in

[frozen galleon]

Ok

[lime brook]

Is there a way to see if my tilesets are corrupted?

[vale timber]

Im the only one who is getting freezes in the game?

[solid crypt]

looks like you are launching directly from OneDrive

[safe quail]

Try moving the folder to ur desktop

[frozen galleon]

It is there

[safe quail]

Is the folder on ur desktop or is a shortcut linking to the folder in the onedrive on ur desktop? The desktop should be a unique location to store ur file, and I agree with oddkward that it looks like the file is currently stored on onedrive

[frozen galleon]

That's odd. I'll see what I can do about adjusting it

[solid crypt]

You most likely linked your OneDrive and your Mega at one point, so it may have downloaded to OneDrive instead of your computer

[safe quail]

If it is not stored on onedrive can u back out to the previous folder and screenshot that?

[safe quail]

U can try launching the game from the alternate launcher, and if u are on the non-light version of the game or have installed the 1-87 sprite pack u can turn off the download sprites setting in ur options

These should help reduce load times

[proud orchid]

you can try dragging the zip folder from your downloads onto your desktop then extracting the file from there

[proud orchid]

@frozen galleon

[frozen galleon]

Moving the folder from OneDrive straight to desktop

[safe quail]

Nice

[frozen galleon]

I wonder if that's why OBS would occasionally slow down after a while too

[solid crypt]

Yea, Windows 10 can run some programs from within a .zip, but it is always faster to unpack to a unique folder

[safe quail]

If u run the game for a few hours, it will begin to slow down

U can fix this by restarting the game

[frozen galleon]

Thing is though I thought I did unpack it to my desktop. 🤔

Oh well

[solid crypt]

Ok, fresh install still not working 😦

https://i.gyazo.com/5677b216c198bada2d89c850a6c26c4e.png

Is this my save file causing this?

[safe quail]

No

This is an issue with the experimental No Levels Mode included in 5.1.2

The program is attempting to check for it and receiving an invalid response

[solid crypt]

Oh, should I google the mode?

[safe quail]

If u are receiving this error, I do not know of a fix, but version 5.1.1.1 does not include No Levels Mode, which should resolve this issue

[proud orchid]

is it possible to download 5.1.1.1 light version

[safe quail]

Light version was introduced in 5.1.2.0

[proud orchid]

i see, thank you!

[solid crypt]

Can I still install the most recent sprite pack into 5.1.1.1?

[safe quail]

Yes

[solid crypt]

Awesome, thanks for your continuous help

[safe quail]

Anytime

[true tinsel]

this might be a dumb question but does the download from mega take hours ?

its only a few gbs so i thoght it would be shorter

[safe quail]

U may be downloading the entire mega folder, which is unnecessary

The largest single download available is 1.41GB

[true tinsel]

hm yea i might be downloading the entire folder

do i just need the bottom 3 ?

[lime brook]

So if my zip is 1.33gb does that mean I'm missing stuff?

[safe quail]

U only need 1 of the .zips

depending on ur needs

[solid crypt]

You only need any that say full if you are DLing for first time

[safe quail]

I would recommend the 1.41GB version if u do not have another install

[safe quail]

Maybe, depending on ur version

[true tinsel]

yea im downloading it for first time

[solid crypt]

the most recent didn't work for me, so I am DLing 5.1.1.1

[lime brook]

It was 5.1.1.1

[safe quail]

5.1.1.1 is roughly that size

ur fine

[true tinsel]

so just to make sure just this one i should download and ill be fine ?

[safe quail]

yes

[true tinsel]

okay thank you so much

[lime brook]

Ok, been trying for a week to figure out why some parts wont load in until I get into a battle

[safe quail]

wdym

[lime brook]

Like it shows all the characters sprites but nothing else then wen I get into a fight it loads all the grass and stuff after

[safe quail]

I believe it's been diagnosed as an error with RPGmaker

I'm not sure

[lime brook]

I got no idea what that is to be honest, I even put the latest patch to see if that would help and it did not

[safe quail]

RPGmaker is the engine used to make the game

Essentially it is out of the devs' control

[lime brook]

Ah so its hardware issue then?

[safe quail]

Perhaps

[lime brook]

Great haha well thanks for the clarification

[solid crypt]

Whoo! my save works!

[safe quail]

Congrats

[solid crypt]

Sorry to keep asking questions, but is this version missing options? Could set custom controls before, no?

[safe quail]

If u are referring to keybinds

They should be on F1

However, mapping to controller has been known to be non-functional using the main launcher

The alt launcher generally appears to have better compatibility with controller

[solid crypt]

Hmm, didn't even think about trying out a controller

[safe quail]

As far as I know, the only options that were added between 5.1.1 and 5.1.2 are download sprites and no levels mode

I do not have experience with versions before 5.1.1.1

[solid crypt]

I made a mistake when I DL'd the game the other day, only today realized I was using the legacy version

[safe quail]

The recency of ur save is likely what allowed u to migrate successfully

[proud orchid]

may i ask how do i install the latest sprite packs into my newly downloaded 5.1.1 folder 🙂

[turbid terrace]

Hey @proud orchid! Are you trying to add more custom sprites to your game? You can find the most up to date sprite pack containing all custom sprites in #downloads! To add them to your game, simply copy all the files into your game's CustomBattlers folder. The pack also contains alts and things such as joke sprites and regional variants, which you can also add to your game if you wish.

You can swap between alts of a given fusion in-game, using the Pokédex!

[astral rover]

Hi Ferrous, could you explain to me what exactly turning off auto sprite download feature does?

[safe quail]

The auto sprite download will check for new sprites each time a sprite is requested, even if there are no new sprites

Disabling this option will skip this check and reduce load times

[trail shell]

It feels like my game has like a .5 second lag spike every time the game makes a decision like choosing a move, entering and exiting places, and loading new parts of the map. I tried closing the game and opening it again but it's still happening. Any idea how to fix this?

[safe quail]

There are also some programming issues with the sprite download feature that have caused the game to crash or miss sprites while looking for new sprites, even though the most current sprites are already downloaded

[safe quail]

U can try running the game from the alt launcher, and if ur on the non-light version of the game, or have installed the 1-87 sprite pack, u can turn off the download sprites setting in options

[solid crypt]

Hopefully my last question for the night. Which "button" dictates boost mode?

[safe quail]

On keyboard it will be Q by default

[solid crypt]

What's the game call that though? C, Z, R? I've been pushing them all and it's not turning off

[safe quail]

I can boot the game and check keybinds rq

[solid crypt]

Afraid I'll have to reset all defaults

Oh thanks

[safe quail]

According to the keybinds, it is L

[solid crypt]

Oh thank you, not sure when I hit that, but def not gonna keep it as space lol

[willow moth]

after i moved the infinitefusion folder unto a hard drive i got this error message when trying to open the game, is there any way to fix it?

[safe quail]

Where onto the hard drive was it moved?

[willow moth]

just on the harddrive, wasnt placed in an extra folder

[safe quail]

I don't especially think it will matter, reading the rest of this error

This issue is with the download sprites setting

Assuming ur folders are completely intact and u have a complete sprite library, u can try turning off this setting in options

[willow moth]

how can i get into options?

[safe quail]

When is this error occurring?

[willow moth]

when i start the game, the screen is black but the music plays, then this error message appears

[safe quail]

Are u able to mash past the title screen?

[willow moth]

i'll try now

nope, when i press ok on the message, the game closes itself

[safe quail]

So the issue is that the game is requesting a sprite that the downloader can't find the directory for

[frozen galleon]

DId a fresh unpack of the full 5.1.2.4 into my actual desktop rather than OneDrive and it didn't crash

[safe quail]

However, the sprite is for a fusion, and it takes a bit for a fusion to show up on the title screen

So in theory u should be able to boot the game and mash past before the error occurs

If that isn't the case then I don't know of a fix and we may have to assume there is a different error given the circumstances

[willow moth]

okay, thanks

[proper yarrow]

quick question about files. What are the "CustomBattlers" and are those the sprites being used in game? Just updated the sprites from the #downloads

[safe quail]

The custombattlers folder is the repository of custom-made spritework for each fusion in the game

They are used each time a compatible pokemon is sent out

[proper yarrow]

are they being used automatically or do we drag them into where they need to be to used them?

or is it an option in game?

[safe quail]

After the game has sorted the sprites into the indexed folder, they will be used automatically

There is a download sprites feature to ensure that the most recent sprites are used for every pokemon

However this feature has been buggy

And I do not recommend turning it on

[frozen galleon]

Working just fine now, ty ^^

[safe quail]

Glad to hear

[proper yarrow]

so basically they cant be used for now until "fixed"?

[safe quail]

Some people have used the feature without issue, but others have reported being unable to open the game (see above) or missing sprites

[proper yarrow]

ok, thanks for the help!

[trail shell]

I tried the alt launcher, it seems a bit better but the lag's still there. Is turning off downloaded sprites the only option to try and fix the game? They're like half the fun

[young mulch]

hey guys i am getting this error that crashes my game every time i try to fight this gym trainer in pewter city, is there a problem with my randomizer settings?

[safe quail]

Custom Sprites will still be present in the game even if Downloaded Sprites are turned off, as long as you have the full version of the game or have installed the sprite pack manually

[young mulch]

oh i get the error for any gym trainer it seems

[safe quail]

The randomizer in 5.1.2.0+ has been experiencing issues, I do not recommend playing a randomizer on this version of the game

I have heard that turning off the trainer rando helps, but that person was able to use the gym rando just fine

[young mulch]

ohh ok

im thinking it might be from setting custom sprites only for gym trainers? because other trainers work fine

if not i will just download an earlier version tyty

[safe quail]

Whatever the case, the main fix appears to be to disable whatever randomizer is causing issues

[trail shell]

where in the options menu is the Downloaded Sprites setting?

[safe quail]

If u cannot find it u may not be on the most recent version of the game

In that instance there is nothing more u can do to smooth the game's load times beyond playing from the alt launcher

[trail shell]

Will updating help?

[safe quail]

5.1.2.0 was known to perform worse overall. I believe that 5.1.2.4 performs about as well with downloaded sprites turned off as 5.1.1.1 did

So, probably not

[trail shell]

okay, thanks

[zinc lion]

Hi guys, I'm playing a randomized run rn with only customized sprites and it's mostly working correctly. However, some sprites are showing their default Japeal sprites instead of the custom ones in both the pokedex and battles. Is this a known bug and if so, any fixes?

[safe quail]

So the issue is that the custom sprites are selected in the pokedex but aren't showing?

[zinc lion]

Yeah, it's selected but not showing in the pokedex after ensuring that the custom sprite is selected and in battle

[turbid terrace]

Hey @zinc lion! Are you trying to add more custom sprites to your game? You can find the most up to date sprite pack containing all custom sprites in #downloads! To add them to your game, simply copy all the files into your game's CustomBattlers folder. The pack also contains alts and things such as joke sprites and regional variants, which you can also add to your game if you wish.

You can swap between alts of a given fusion in-game, using the Pokédex!

[safe quail]

What version are u on

[zinc lion]

Its only this one and one other so far, but I'm not far into the game. And I'm on whatever the most recent patch in the MEGA was, so 5.1.2?

[safe quail]

Try turning off download sprites in ur options

[zinc lion]

Where do I find that? Is it in randomizer settings?

[safe quail]

It is in the pause menu options

[zinc lion]

Alright I'll give that a try and get back to you

Didn't fix the pokedex when i turned it on so i'm restarting the game

[safe quail]

When u turned it on? Was it turned off?

[zinc lion]

*off sorry

[safe quail]

Gotcha

[zinc lion]

Alright, game has been restarted and that did not work unfortunately

[stoic sigil]

Thanks for the info, I guess autogens get checked every time...

[safe quail]

What folder did u download/extract the game to

Keep download sprites off if u have the full version or have installed the 1-87 sprite pack btw, it's been causing issues for people

[zinc lion]

Like the newest patch? I was playing on 5.1.1.1 before and extracted the patch to my general game folder. Seemed to work as well since I have battle tower and the new loading screen

[safe quail]

Not the newest patch

In what folder is the game folder located

[zinc lion]

This is my game folder. My Pokemon Infinite Fusion file (which has everything) is just in my downloads tab

[safe quail]

Ok, move the game folder out of ur downloads

Move it to ur desktop

The downloads folder and the onedrive folder have both been known to cause the game to lose track of its graphics files (among other, more important files) on occasion

Also delete this image if u don't want more people to know ur name

[zinc lion]

Good to know, I've cut and pasted it to the desktop, gonna take a while tho haha, also thank you good point, didnt even see that

[lucid wolf]

aight so here's a list of what i've tried :
run as admin
alternate launcher
reinstalling
using both 7zip and winrar
redownloading
renaming tilesets from .PNG to .png

im stuck on how to fix this atm, any ideas?

[safe quail]

That's quite a comprehensive list

[lucid wolf]

also this is not the only place where it happens

it happens when i enter the fossil room in museum from the inside
when i enter the first gym
and viridian forest

also bike shop

[zinc lion]

so I tried again, still didn't work which is too bad. Starting to think it might be an issue with the specific sprites or the randomizer

[safe quail]

I would be a little surprised. I'm going to be away for a few minutes but I'll be thinking of a few options to try

It's not looking great tho

[zinc lion]

sounds good! appreciate your help. Not game breaking at least, just a bit annoying

[safe quail]

For sure

[safe quail]

Is this the only sprite uve noticed with this issue?

[zinc lion]

nope, one other. Other one was a breloom/infernape fusion

[safe quail]

So I have one or two other things u can try that don't feel like throwing spaghetti at the wall

Do u know how to locate this sprite in ur game files?

[zinc lion]

i do yeah

[safe quail]

I want u to pull it out of its index and back into the custombattlers folder

When u boot the game it should resort it back into its index

Hopefully this helps the game find it

[zinc lion]

oh that might work, ill get back to you in a minute

[safe quail]

This isn't super feasible to do with every sprite u notice isn't working, but the problem right now is that the game can find the sprite half of the time but can't find it the other half of the time, which I don't really know what to do about on a wide scale that we haven't already tried

Aside from re-extracting the entire graphics folder

[zinc lion]

alright I have taken them out and pasted them in the custombattlers folder, game is loading now. I will note, both the sprites for whatever reason had the "a" suffix despite being the only of its kind, not sure if that has anything to do with it

[safe quail]

That almost certainly has smth to do with it

[zinc lion]

for the record, i removed the a

[safe quail]

Good

Out of curiosity, are these sprites from the sprite pack?

[zinc lion]

both sprites also still haven't shown up on aegide calculator, so my guess is maybe they were incorrectly named and are from the newest pack?

Not sure, thats what i presume tho

[safe quail]

Which sprite pack did u download

[zinc lion]

I downloaded the 1-86 last month and the 87 pack a few days ago

[safe quail]

Interesting

And both of these are installed correctly?

To ur knowledge

[zinc lion]

seem to be, Ive seen some of the new sprites in the game and it said that it added like numerous thousands of new sprites when i started the game

[safe quail]

My best guess is that pack 87 was collected in tandem with 1-87, which may have been reorganized slightly from 1-86

[zinc lion]

you might be right, going to check if it worked now

alright, it just said 2 new custom sprites were added

new problem lmao not entirely sure why its doing this, its doing it for both of the dysfunctional sprites

[safe quail]

So u removed only the suffix from them, there were no other main sprites in their indices, and download sprites is still turned off?

[zinc lion]

correct for all of those yeah

[safe quail]

Are these sprites back in their indices?

[zinc lion]

they seem to be

[safe quail]

Well, I am out of good ideas. I could throw some experimental things ur way and see what happens, but I truly do not understand what's happening here

[zinc lion]

sure we can give a few ideas a try if you dont mind!

[safe quail]

Well, here's one

I found this sprite from last month's spritework, I want u to add this to ur custombattlers, make sure it's titled properly so that it adds to this mon's index, and give it an "a" to make it an alt sprite

[zinc lion]

alright ill do that

[stoic sigil]

Little side note since you said you had 1-86 + 87 separately (just like me), did you do the corrections in the corrections folder of the 87 pack?

[safe quail]

O I didn't see that at all

I hadn't checked the others folder, thought it was the usual miscellaneous spritework

[stoic sigil]

Probably won't solve this issue since the sprite is literally not showing up rn but something to note

[zinc lion]

alright ive saved it as 213.80a.pngin custombattlers

[zinc lion]

not sure, what is that?

[safe quail]

I think 213.80 may be the inverse of this fusion

Isn't ur fusion 80.213?

[zinc lion]

on aegide calc it says that the one that hasnt been working is 80.213 and the one you just sent me is 213.80. is that an issue?

[frozen galleon]

Well, THIS happened now :S

[safe quail]

If u want to send it to the index of the mon we're working with, it should have the same name as that other sprite

This is the spritework for the inverse fusion, but we're trying to put it in this index

Just to make smth happen

[zinc lion]

ah gotcha, i understand. ill name it 80.213a.png

[simple mortar]

my charmeleon isnt evolving...any solution?

[safe quail]

Is it level 36 and are u sure it's not holding an everstone

[stoic sigil]

In the sprite pack 87 folder, see others\corrections\. There will be stuff only in the RENAME THESE folder and you'll need to manually fix the sprite names mentioned in the files as "was x" (usually they're sprites where the naming has gone the wrong way around, you'll clearly see e.g. the colour difference when you go the indexed)

[wind cedar]

I was told by the game to sort out my indexed custom sprites so i manually merged them all into the Battlers folder.
However now I'm getting an error on trying to load the game where it's looking for those 'missing' custom sprites. Is that directory not optional?

[turbid terrace]

Hey @wind cedar! Are you trying to add more custom sprites to your game? You can find the most up to date sprite pack containing all custom sprites in #downloads! To add them to your game, simply copy all the files into your game's CustomBattlers folder. The pack also contains alts and things such as joke sprites and regional variants, which you can also add to your game if you wish.

You can swap between alts of a given fusion in-game, using the Pokédex!

[zinc lion]

let me take a look, im not sure i totally understand what youre talking about but ill look

[safe quail]

Oh no

So there are a lot of things wrong with what u said

When u say u merged ur custom sprites into ur battlers folder

[simple mortar]

yes its actully lvl 39

[safe quail]

Are u sure u mean ur battlers folder

And not ur custombattlers folder

[ancient parcel]

and not holding everstone

[simple mortar]

correct

ik everstones

hate em unless breeding region forms

[safe quail]

Can I see a pic of the summary screen of ur charizard?

[stoic sigil]

This is a permission issue. The OS is stopping the game from accessing its files. This means that you probably have the game files located in some special location like C:\Program Files\ etc. Try moving the game folder to [username]\Documents\ or the desktop for example

[simple mortar]

yes

[ancient parcel]

Its still a charmeleon TBF

[wind cedar]

1. I took the community custom sprites pack and unzipped the images to my custom battlers folder.

2. I ran the game and the custom sprites became indexed

3. I moved those indexed sprites from custombattlers and placed them in battlers and overwrote any conflicts.

[safe quail]

We had them move it from onedrive to desktop when they were last in here

[stoic sigil]

Ah, maybe try Documents then (the non-cloud one)

[stoic sigil]

Uh oh

[wind cedar]

haha, should I start over?

[safe quail]

U don't need to start over

But I would re-extract ur graphics folder

Bc this is very fucked

[zinc lion]

i understand what you were talking about now, didnt see the problem sprites anywhere in there

[safe quail]

Yea they weren't in there

That was just a suggestion for later

[ancient parcel]

#tech-support message

[safe quail]

How did u get this charmeleon? Was it just ur starter?

[simple mortar]

starter

[safe quail]

And it evolved to charmeleon

[simple mortar]

yes

[zinc lion]

ah i see, im going to start the game and see what happens with the sprite you sent me @safe quail

[simple mortar]

and hasnt further evolved

[safe quail]

Ok, sounds good

[safe quail]

What are ur game mode settings

[stoic sigil]

Lemme give a short explanation of how the sprites work: autogen (non-custom) sprites are located in Battlers while custom sprites are located in CustomBattlers\indexed\. The game reads both of these locations separately in order to prioritize a custom sprite and only use autogens when customs are not found

[turbid terrace]

Hey @stoic sigil! Are you trying to add more custom sprites to your game? You can find the most up to date sprite pack containing all custom sprites in #downloads! To add them to your game, simply copy all the files into your game's CustomBattlers folder. The pack also contains alts and things such as joke sprites and regional variants, which you can also add to your game if you wish.

You can swap between alts of a given fusion in-game, using the Pokédex!

[stoic sigil]

What you did could technically still function but will cause issues with sprite downloads and new sprite packs

[wind cedar]

yeah based on your explanantion that makes sense but then why is the game crashing when it can't find the custom sprites?

[safe quail]

I was more asking if ur on classic, modern, rando, etc

single species mode

[simple mortar]

oh first time..i never was given the option

[safe quail]

Okay so ur probs on classic

[simple mortar]

i picked easy

but thats was all i could choose

[stoic sigil]

Because it has already imported them so it expects those imported files to be there. This is why we use the importing system rather than move things to indexed right away ourselves

[safe quail]

I have no reasonable idea what could be causing this, sorry

[wind cedar]

Perfect, thanks. Ok i'll do it right this time.

[simple mortar]

5.30am n im suffering

[safe quail]

Feel that

[stoic sigil]

Oh the bot ignored me

[simple mortar]

sigh

[safe quail]

Bot doesn't like this channel ig

[simple mortar]

https://tenor.com/view/sponge-bob-nah-tired-i-dont-feel-like-it-gif-14008945

bot there lol

[ancient parcel]

U tried leveling up Char a last time

it

[safe quail]

As far as my unreasonable ideas what could be causing this

[simple mortar]

ill try....again,but no fusion this time just incase

[safe quail]

Oh

Was it fused before

[ancient parcel]

u think its a glitch?

cuz I do

[simple mortar]

uh...4 different times

[safe quail]

Have u leveled it up while unfused

[stoic sigil]

Oooh was it fused with something that also evolves at 36 and then unfused before 37?

[simple mortar]

uh idk honestly seems to be slow at lvls

[safe quail]

If the other half of the fusion was always evolving first then charmeleon would never have been given a chance to evolve

[stoic sigil]

And then unfusing before the next level could be a reasonable scenario for s bug

[zinc lion]

welp youre not gonna believe this. CORRECT sprite is working now and the alt sprite you asked me to add is gone now lmao. However, the other sprite that was having issues is working now

[simple mortar]

i mean one was butterfree ithink,then gyrados and the sword thing,then idk

[safe quail]

????

[simple mortar]

yo those are cool

[safe quail]

It may have been fused to smth that lowered its level below 36

When it unfuses, it doesn't immediately evolve

It has to level up again

[simple mortar]

damn it

ok,well right now its 39...if it doesnt evolve at 40..ill fetal position

[safe quail]

Woo, no bugs here!

[safe quail]

Except right here...

[zinc lion]

I think maybe either cause my computer is running slow as a mf rn or because of the randomizer or something slowing my game down (ill admit i dont have the greatest hardware) is making the new imported sprites not show until i restart the fame

[safe quail]

So u think if u restart the game again the other one might show?

[zinc lion]

ill restart again and see, fingers crossed

if it shows, that means the only issues here were bad nomenclature on the sprites and my shitty laptop lmao

[safe quail]

I can only pray life be so simple

[zinc lion]

looool

[simple mortar]

ok its charizard..i guess im being stupid

i apologize

[safe quail]

Ur good

[simple mortar]

its lvl40

[safe quail]

It is not intuitive

[zinc lion]

IT WORKED, the sprites not showing up was just because my game wasnt loading them when they were just added

[safe quail]

Well

It has been an honor working with u on this escapade

[stoic sigil]

What a strange case this was, glad it works

[zinc lion]

o7 lmao i appreciate all your guys' help. i definitely wouldnt have figured this out on my own so thanks for all your genius ideas

[wind cedar]

Where do we put the eggs folder from the community pack?

[safe quail]

Probably just put the contents in the eggs folder in graphics > Pokemon

Altho I'm not sure if the game has any way to recognize them

The eggs folder in Battlers is actually probably the one the game actually uses and can recognize

[lime valley]

im trying to download the zip file on mega but it says i have to pay what can i do?

[safe quail]

U can use the mediafire link in xillo's bio instead

[lime valley]

ill give that a shot thanks

[coarse orchid]

If u download light version, do you need to install the custom sprite in the #downloads ? or no since light version download latest custom sprite as we play

also another question, is there will be no patches for light version?

[wind cedar]

@safe quail @stoic sigil

hi, i have a question if anyone can help. when extracting the custom sprites, can i just put the custom battlers folder inside of the other custom battlers folder? or do i need to go copy and paste all the sprites from that folder?

Both full and light version have the download feature, but no, you don't need to install the sprite pack if you enable it, but you will notice some hitching as it downloads on the go. There is also a pathing bug that may cause some crashes when downloading autogen sprites

[stoic sigil]

There will be, it's simply a version without sprites included to reduce download size

[stoic sigil]

The sprites' image files need to be directly in CustomBattlers, the game won't search subfolders

[sterile pivot]

thank you

what about this .git folder? where does that go?

[stoic sigil]

Ignore that, it's for dev stuff, idk how it got included

[sterile pivot]

thank you

hold on, let me speak in my understanding. both is the same, normal version needs sprite packs manually meanwhile light version is auto but can crash the game when downloading the sprite on the go. there will be patches for light version such as for bugs but both have the same updates based on #announcements ?

is that correct?

[stoic sigil]

Almost. Neither need sprite packs. Light version needs to have the download feature enabled in the game options. The only difference between the versions is that light does not have any sprites in the game files because it relies on the download feature, while full still has the option to enable the download feature but it doesn't need it. Hence patches will apply to both in the same way

I have a question about adding the custom sprites from the pack. I know you need to copy and paste them into the custombattlers section, but is there a specific way I should do it? I just wanna know so I don't break anything.

[stoic sigil]

As long as the images end up in CustomBattlers directly, you're good

[coarse orchid]

1. I can have both normal and light version at the same time right?
2. I just need to download latest patch and copy+replace into both file correct?

[vast forge]

Okay, thank you! And I just need to copy/paste the whole file, right? Not just one thing?

[stoic sigil]

1. There's no reason to have both. Pick the one you prefer based on your download speed, but I recommend the full version.
2. Yes, to patch, you just extract the patch zip and copy its contents directly in top of the game files.

[coarse orchid]

both normal and light version is full... so which full

[stoic sigil]

Yes, if the CustomBattlers folder gets filled with image (png) files, then you pasted correctly

im having issues with my game crashing and i need help

[stoic sigil]

Yeah the naming convention is a bit confusing. Light is infinitefusion_light_5.1.2.4_full.zip, full is infinitefusion_5.1.2.4-full.zip and the patch is infinitefusion_5.1.2.4-patch.zip

There is a new file called _WHICH VERSION SHOULD YOU GET.txt that you can read right away by just double clicking for more info

[stoic sigil]

You have a corrupted sprite. Delete the file 396.9.png located in Graphics\CustomBattlers\indexed\396\

[deft musk]

The one without the pic?

[stoic sigil]

Exactly, you can tell by that that it's corrupted

[vast forge]

Do I copy/paste all the pngs from the sprite pack's "custombattlers" to the game's, or do I copy/paste the entire pack folder into the game's "custombattlers"?

[deft musk]

thank you! i much appreaciate it!!

I also noticed the sync markings. If your game is stored in a cloud location like OneDrive, this can cause issues. I recommend moving the game to a local location like your local Documents folder
