[fast bolt]

Try it and see

[rough swift]

still invisble, i'll save and restart the game

Guess i'll close it and open it..

[rough swift]

Restarting the entire game seems to have fixed it. i can at least see it on the "load game"

[cobalt crater]

Nice

[azure wasp]

still have the giovanni bug. even after going to the fixer-guy and launching the install_or_update programm

i am running on a full randomizer, maybe that is the problem?

[past vector]

Hello, I asked before on the issues my game has had and tried using the preloaded, but it made the game ever worse.

I'm not sure if i should uninstall then reinstall the game after i extracted the files or if its just permanently bugged.

[hot flicker]

You need to randomize your game again or just turn it off completely

And if those don't work I have one other solution

[azure wasp]

will try in a bit

[north sequoia]

hey so i every time i do some especific actions the game has a delay like opening party, switching pkmn order, etc the thing is that it wasnt happenind before

[pulsar sedge]

I installed the launcher, but when I launch it nothing appears and I checked the task manager and I see it popping during 1 sec and disappear

Nevermind I find out that I haven't installed the .NET runtime 6.0

[azure wasp]

did not work

[pulsar sedge]

Now the launcher crash when I try to install the game

[hot flicker]

Make a new folder and install a fresh copy of the game into that one and play your game

[pulsar sedge]

I got this error on the console

[lethal remnant]

why is there a system error??

[cold dust]

trying to use the new launcher but everytime i press instal it says its 'preparing' and then closes.

unsure what the issue with that is.

[lethal remnant]

why cant it find the hidden files

like .git files

becuase it cant find them for the system error

[jade sedge]

It says updating files: 100%. Maybe it's fine now. Try it?

I think species.zip isn't in use anymore

[mighty kestrel]

How come I still see question marks on some Pokémon fusions even tho I downloaded the September sprite pack?

[turbid terrace]

Hey @mighty kestrel! 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!

[mighty kestrel]

I tried that

It didn’t work

[jade sedge]

Good news: there may be a fix for you if you can read the pinned messages in this channel

[jolly granite]

Can someone help me download the new update onto joiplay on android?

[turbid terrace]

Hey @jolly granite! 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 #tech-support message

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.

[sterile pivot]

i try to click install it makes a sound and it just crashes after 5 mins

[jolly granite]

That's the same problem with me when I try to install the game through the launcher on my laptop how do you fix it?

[keen lodge]

same

[jolly granite]

Anyone know how to fix it?

[spiral spruce]

launcher is broken.

[blazing python]

Yeah launcher is broken. Use 1st pinned message for installation instructions

[blazing python]

Same as above

[lethal remnant]

yo uh my sprites wont load

like the shadows on the ground show but the actual sprite apart from my starter wont lod

idk wht i did but i picked gibble as my starter if that has something to do with it

but i didnt change anything els

[north sequoia]

hey so my fused pokemon just wont show its iconm i got no dowload sprites, and is on pre loaded

[tawny dragon]

How do I fix this?

[north sequoia]

just close and re open, worked 4 me

[tawny dragon]

i did that like 4 times

[north sequoia]

oh then i cant help u

[quartz inlet]

Hey there, I'm having this issue when trying to run the Preloaded launcher version:

the thing is I downloaded the sprite pack and the file it asks for is at exactly the location it tells me it isn't in, I checked... so, kind of at a loss on what to do here...

[fast bolt]

Did you get the sprites from the pinned message here?

NOT the pack from #downloads

[quartz inlet]

you mean the "UpdatesSprites.zip" pinned up there? pretty sure I did so, I did download and install both of them, should I only use the one here?

[wild moat]

Having this issue again.. I've tried online and preloaded with downloading sprites manually. I've completely deleted the game and reinstalled it as well and still no fix

[lethal remnant]

can anyone help me with the sprites?

[fast bolt]

That's the only one you need

[lethal remnant]

becuase they wont show

[fast bolt]

Did you follow the video guide to install them properly?

[lethal remnant]

like the shadows will but they wont load

[wild moat]

yes

[lethal remnant]

well there was my first save where they loaded and then i made a second one and they wont load on the second save

[fast bolt]

Do you have download sprites turned on in options? If you're on preloaded, turn it off and restart your game.

[lethal remnant]

which options?

[quartz inlet]

ah k, just to clarify, I can still use the custom ones from #sprite-gallery too if I want right?

[lethal remnant]

the game options?

[fast bolt]

Yes

[lethal remnant]

im on game.default

[fast bolt]

Yes

[lethal remnant]

and theyre om

[fast bolt]

Use game.exe

[lethal remnant]

but ill go on preloaded and turn it off

[blazing python]

this is a different error than sprites. Are you playing randomized and modern mode?

[wild moat]

yes

[lethal remnant]

na default mode

[blazing python]

that is the problem. right now there is a bug where you cant do that combo. If you do, you have to turn off randomized settings for trainers

[wild moat]

ohhh ok

[lethal remnant]

ok so which one should i use

[blazing python]

yeah if you playing preloaded, sprite optin has to be turned off. Specifcally if you are opening game-preloaded

[fast bolt]

Game

[lethal remnant]

ok then turn the sprite thing in options off?

[fast bolt]

No. It has to be on for that one

[lethal remnant]

okok

wait

the first game

or the second one

[fast bolt]

The application

First one

[lethal remnant]

ok works now

thanks man

[blazing python]

this is a bug with your save file. how did you install the game? did you recently update?

[lethal remnant]

yo i have a gibble and a pyukumuku should i fuse them?

and whenever i use the calculator online is shows two different fuses but the same pokemon, whats the difference and how do i change which one they are?

[tawny dragon]

how do i update it? and i had the game shortcut version and the folder version

[blazing python]

Do you have the file INSTALL_OR_UPDATE in your folder?

[lethal remnant]

??

[blazing python]

we dont manage that website so not sure

[lethal remnant]

yh but wait ill show u

like this

[fast bolt]

This is not a tech issue, so it doesn't go here.

[lethal remnant]

ah sorry

[fast bolt]

The difference is how you fuse them though. The stats are below them.

You can choose which one you want

[tawny dragon]

no

[lethal remnant]

ah okok thanks

[blazing python]

Do you happen to know what version you currently on?

Also do you care about your save file?

[tawny dragon]

6.0 and im not very far in so not really

[blazing python]

where did you download the game from? Weird that you are 6.0 and missing the file to install/update the game

[tawny dragon]

the shortcut version was in the downloads i think, but the folder i think i got fromeither a mediafire or github. i dont remember exactly

[blazing python]

when I click your name it says you have the launcher open for the game

so looks like the Launcher

you use this thing?

[tawny dragon]

thats the shortcut ver yea. but i wasnt on it

[blazing python]

Ok to start lets clean out the save file

Go here: C:\Users\YOUR NAME\AppData\Roaming\infinitefusion (replace YOUR NAME with the name of your computer)

that should have your save file

If you want move them out or if you dont mind, delete everything in this folder

after you can try opening the game again

[tawny dragon]

done

not done. lol

[blazing python]

Do you get a different error now?

[tawny dragon]

no. all i did was move my files out

its installing again.

[blazing python]

Oh ok. Not sure how you installing it lol

[tawny dragon]

this popped up but said install instead of play

[atomic kelp]

So I was able to get the game running but there was no background, only a black screen. I could see 'Red' and could move around, but there was no background. Even the Pidgeot in the opening wa flying over a black screen

[turbid terrace]

Hey @atomic kelp! 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

[blazing python]

Yeah the launcher you can play through there

[night forge]

I'm struggling getting this game installed on my new phone. Had it done on my old one but with this new one I think I'm just fully struggling on it.

[turbid terrace]

Hey @night forge! 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 #tech-support message

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

[blazing python]

are you playing on PC?

[atomic kelp]

Yes I am.

[blazing python]

how did you install the game? A website or InfiniteFusion.zip?

[atomic kelp]

Unrelated: Mega Man is the greatest ever and you are awesome

[blazing python]

Here are the only instructions I have for mobile:

Actually there this update 6.0.4 I hope this is helpful for you too..

Thanks to @blazing python He recommend me this and I managed to successfully get IF 6.0.4 running on Android (Pixel 5A 5G, Android 14) using the following: JoiPlay 1.20.410-patreon and RPG Maker Plugin 1.20.41-patreon-release (don't use 1.20.52, the text rendering is glitchy), and IF itself downloaded from https://github.com/infinitefusion/infinitefusion-e18/archive/refs/heads/releases.zip

Happy fusing!

[atomic kelp]

I used the zip file found here

[blazing python]

So when you play the game, the title screen says you are on version 6.0.4?

[atomic kelp]

yes indeed

[blazing python]

that doesn't make sense lol

[atomic kelp]

I mean....I agree haha

[blazing python]

can you show a screenshot of your game folder really quick?

[blazing python]

yeah the files look good as well. This usually happens on older versions or when installing the wrong way, but your files seem good

especially because the latest version has the fix for that issue

Are you able to manage to go to a pokemon center from the game with this issue?

[atomic kelp]

I mean....I cant see anything.. All I see is Red, so I'd have to get there blind

[blazing python]

oh thought you mentioned Red as the trainer

can you send a screenshot? like the whole game is red?

[atomic kelp]

no no I meant Red the trainer haha. Sorry. Lemme screen shot

Unrelated: but I have also had an isue of text boxes overlapping, like when I go through the menus

[blazing python]

did you update from an old version or brand new folder and install?

[atomic kelp]

brand new folder

[blazing python]

that is weird. Ok in game even though it is all black you can go to your bag

there is a Key Item named Debugger that will teleport you to a pokemon center

Then find Update Man, he has a black suit on and usually 2f, but he gives you the option to "Fix Game". Select that option

[blazing python]

oh wait can you even go to a pokemon center if you have no save file either? lol

[atomic kelp]

I have a save file, it' the initial save

[blazing python]

ok cool try the steps I mentioned with an existing save

[atomic kelp]

oh....wait no. When I used the debugger it just took me downtairs to Red's Mom

[bleak hedge]

No idea if this will work, but maybe try running the exe in Win 7 compatibility mode?

[blazing python]

Close the game and open your game folder

Delete the Graphics folder

then rerun INSTALL_OR_UPDATE.bat

[blazing python]

Yeah launcher is broken. Use 1st pinned message for installation instructions

[hardy latch]

I'm trying to install this and when i start the installation it just closes after a while and doesn't do anything

oh

[atomic kelp]

Running the install or update now. Thanks for your help

okay, ran it and it redownloaded the graphics folder. trying again

[vestal depot]

Is there a known issue with picking up HMs but then they are not in the bag?

[blazing python]

yeah is it strength or surf?

[vestal depot]

both

[atomic kelp]

same thing

[blazing python]

i dont remember the workaround, but I usually see it in #gameplay-help

[candid drift]

when i am trying to install infinite fuison, it closes itself

[fast bolt]

For surf, there is no workaround

[vestal depot]

thanks

[fast bolt]

Only debug mode can fix it

[blazing python]

Yeah launcher is broken. Use 1st pinned message for installation instructions

[fast bolt]

For strength, you can just get a machamp

[candid drift]

thanks

[candid drift]

where exactly

[blazing python]

1st pinned message in discord. Pins are at the top right of discord. if you on mobile swipe right to left

[candid drift]

thanks

[blazing python]

maybe try deleting everything and rerunning install or update. So only keep these 2

[atomic kelp]

I see game-default and game-preloaded too.Should I be uing one of thoe?

those*

[atomic kelp]

Dang...still the same. All I can see are the sprites

[blazing python]

Yeah, that is really weird especially for it being a new save

[sterile pivot]

says this everytime i record a tinytask to afk daycare

[blazing python]

Yeah, I mean it’s not a bug if you were trying to use a mod to record clicks for you.

Something in that program is causing the game to break, so not something that can be fixed here

[sterile pivot]

Is tinytask considered a mod?

[sterile pivot]

Well it's not a big issue

I might aswell just farm it manually

[blazing python]

Not in the traditional sense but it is a third-party app that you are using to play the game for you

[sterile pivot]

Its fine

Ty

[atomic kelp]

So....I guess Im just boned?

[blazing python]

I can provide you the files to play off what I use in my tutorials if you want to do that. It is a big download though like 3gb but it has all the sprites in the game too

[sterile pivot]

Why not fully delete the infinite fusions and extract it again

[blazing python]

he did

[atomic kelp]

Sure! I mean I really wanna play the game, so if you think it'll help, let's try it

[sterile pivot]

Did he alter the graphics folder in any way?

[blazing python]

nope

he reinstalled fresh already as well

[sterile pivot]

Damm

[blazing python]

Use this: https://youtu.be/hOMllHDMb5A

[bleak hedge]

Try rebooting your pc then launching it before opening anything else. It might be an issue with lack of memory causing things to not load.

[atomic kelp]

So which part do I need to download?

[blazing python]

the video guides you through it

[atomic kelp]

Just wanna make sure: So delete what I have and use the Winrar thing?

[blazing python]

yes

[atomic kelp]

Yo! I just noticed your Youtube icon is X from X3, THE BEST ONE. You're more awesome than you were jut a moment ago

[tender glen]

I have no idea how I got it to happen, but my game is at at double the speed? In the middle of battle every animation speed just became twice as fast. After the battle ended, it retained. I alt-tabbed during the battle but I don't know if that triggered it

[fast bolt]

You pressed Q

[tender glen]

Gnarly, thank you

[fast bolt]

Press it again to go faster. Press it one more time to go back to normal

[tender glen]

I'm not slowing down

[fast bolt]

Try space instead then

[tender glen]

That one did it, thank you

[blazing python]

https://tenor.com/view/getting-out-of-leaving-gotta-go-cars-fast-cars-gif-17957775

[atomic kelp]

sigh. still didn't work

[blazing python]

then it is your computer tbh

those files work on Windows, Mac, and Steam Deck

[atomic kelp]

Why does my computer hate Pokemon?

So just nothing I can do?

[blazing python]

Yeah you literally have a copy of the game files that works everywhere, the only diff is your computer lol

could be a computer restart and graphics update you need

[atomic kelp]

oh....

wellp...sorry to waste your time

[blazing python]

maybe try deleting your save files completly and try opening the game from the file game-preloaded

[atomic kelp]

sure, I'll give it a shot

[blazing python]

inside the folder you will see:

That takes you to the location of your save. Delete everything inside of there

[north sequoia]

Hey, for some reason when i have combined party icons the game lags in there and overworld that wasnt rlly happening yesterday and when i fuse pkmn their icon just dont show up until i restart the game

[white cloak]

windows says the installer from the github is unsafe ? is that normal?

[blazing python]

You could try resetting your sprite pull:

1. Turn off Download Sprites option in setting inside the game.
2. Leave the menu by pressing Enter on Confirm or pressing B (if you don't, this won't work).
3. Go back to Settings.
4. Turn option back on.

[blazing python]

yeah because the dev isn't part of the "verified publishers" list for Windows, but it is ok

Launcher is very buggy at the moment btw. Try it out, but if it doesn't work there aren't fixes for it yet

[atomic kelp]

preloaded game doent even run haha. This sucks I really wanted to play this

[blazing python]

what happens?

[atomic kelp]

Nothing.Window opens and it's just black screen

[turbid terrace]

Hey @atomic kelp! 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

[blazing python]

yeah that is normal

[atomic kelp]

oh

[blazing python]

wait for it to load. takes like a minute depending on your computer

preloaded has slow speed for opening the game, but better in game performance

[atomic kelp]

Sigh.........

nope

[blazing python]

yeah man, not sure at all. Complete ? mark lol

very puzzling

[atomic kelp]

Real bummer...

Thankss for trying

Is there a 'backgrounds' folder or something I don't have? I'm looking throught he graphics, just to see

[blazing python]

the files I gave you has the complete game and sprites

nothing missing from it

[atomic kelp]

I figured...dang

[blazing python]

you opened the game from those files I gave you right?

[uneven kindle]

Would trying not preloaded help?

[atomic kelp]

yes

[blazing python]

already went through it with him and gave him my game files and still dont work

[atomic kelp]

Tried the normal game first. Preload was plan C

[uneven kindle]

Ah

[atomic kelp]

or would that be like...Plan Q? haha

[north sequoia]

did it arld

didnt worki

[atomic kelp]

last ditch effort, Ima try rebooting my computer. Wish me luck, Gamers

[blazing python]

you playing game or game-preloaded?

[blissful beacon]

as soon as the game loaded i got a error screen talking about missing scripts

[blazing python]

can you show a screenshot?

[blazing python]

the game doesn't install sprites

if you want to play the preloaded game, you need to install the preloaded sprites

You can play the game without them as well. But if you want to play preloaded the instructions are in the 1st pinned message of this channel

[sterile pivot]

@blazing python Sorry for ping, do you know if you got me on the dynamic or preloaded version?

[blazing python]

the game installs both

if you open the file named "game" it is dynamic. If you open the file "game-preloaded" you are playing preloaded

so it depends what you are opening

[sterile pivot]

Okay, so dynamic

How do I get sprites that aren't there into the game then?

Specifically this one

[blazing python]

it does it automatically through the internet

[blazing python]

you are looking at the wrong folder for sprites used in the game for a pokemon

Graphics/CustomBattlers/indexed

[sterile pivot]

Oh

[blazing python]

if you want to change it out for something, replace it with the name of the file.

[sterile pivot]

It's named the "5.351"

But it won't appear in game

[blazing python]

so that means the fusion is the head of charmelon and body of kyrem

so you need to reverse the fusion I believe in your game

[sterile pivot]

Inverse🤦‍♂️

Sorry that I'm slow 🤣

Thank you

[boreal light]

what am i supposed to do after i got it into winrar

[blazing python]

Need some more info. What file are you trying to use with Winrar?

[boreal light]

I downloaded the file into winrar

what do i do from here?

[blazing python]

are you doing this to add custom sprites into the game or are you doing this for the purpose of playing the preloaded game?

[boreal light]

idk just got into this. what is best?

just trying to play the game

[blazing python]

Well if you playing the regular game already, these are already downloaded when you encounter pokemon

so you dont need to download this

these are only needed if you want to play preloaded and offline

[boreal light]

not playing anything currently just trying to play the game

[blazing python]

then you dont need

[boreal light]

where is the download i need

[blazing python]

the 1st pinned message in this channel on discord has step by step instructions

@fallen summit @raw orbit Can you ban spammer above please?

thank you!

[fallen summit]

[boreal light]

ty

[lusty field]

what happend?¿

[blazing python]

did you try replacing a sprite?

[lusty field]

no

[blazing python]

says it doesn't like one

[blazing python]

You can go to Graphics folders and delete Pictures folder.
Then go back to your game folder and run install_or_update.bat to reinstall that folder

[lusty field]

it worked

thx man

i love u ❤️

[blissful beacon]

thank you

[royal nova]

Not too important, but anyone know how to do this? I have the developer mode enabled, just isn’t working

[pure bay]

Aloha. Where is the faq immed message? Propably just overlooked it but i cant find it ^^“

[shy pulsar]

can i ask questions about installing here?

[blazing python]

The 1st pinned message in discord on this channel. Top right of discord or if you on mobile swipe right to left

[blazing python]

Sure

[pure bay]

Thank you!

[shy pulsar]

I've already installed the launcher, but when it tries to install the game it just says preparing and then closes

tried with older versions, same

[blazing python]

Launcher is broken. Use the pinned messages on instructions on how to install without launcher

[shy pulsar]

oh ok thanks a lot, i was going crazy ^^

[charred prawn]

yo is it normal windows defender didn't let me execute the install or update thing

[blazing python]

Yeah, but it depends on how high your security settings are that it actually blocks it. If you get a message about it and on the screen, there is a more info button you can click, and then it will give you the option to allow

[charred prawn]

ight thx

[faint surge]

So I'm having issues with running this on my Retroid Pocket 3+.
It keeps pulling up as

Script 'HttpCalls.rb' line 70: NameError occured.
uninitialized constant HTTPLite

idk if you guys know or if I should take this to the RP discord

Or the joiplay discord

lmao

[blazing python]

That device is definitely not one that we are familiar with. If it is running joi play then it is similar with the android instructions.

Actually there this update 6.0.4 I hope this is helpful for you too..

Thanks to @blazing python He recommend me this and I managed to successfully get IF 6.0.4 running on Android (Pixel 5A 5G, Android 14) using the following: JoiPlay 1.20.410-patreon and RPG Maker Plugin 1.20.41-patreon-release (don't use 1.20.52, the text rendering is glitchy), and IF itself downloaded from https://github.com/infinitefusion/infinitefusion-e18/archive/refs/heads/releases.zip

Happy fusing!

So you have to use the information above to make it work

[faint surge]

I'll see if updating to 6.0.4 will help as I'm on 6.0.3

ty c:

[blazing python]

That isn’t really the part of the instructions that would fix your issue. It would be those particular versions of the plug-in and joi play

If you are not using those versions, this will not work

[faint surge]

Oh I have all of those up to date

Literally set it up like yesterday

[blazing python]

That is what I’m saying it is not the most up-to-date version you need. you need those prior versions

[faint surge]

Ohhh, I see now.

Where would I be able to find older versions of the game?

[blazing python]

Not the game… the plugin lol

The plugins are the issue. You need those specific versions of the plugins.

You can find them here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/81829260

The Android guide in the FAQ of the 1st pinned message might help as well but I don’t have an android, and that is all that android information I have

[twin acorn]

Can't fuse still :( On 6.0.4 and did talk to the man in the pokemon center

[blazing python]

Are you using the infinite fuser item or the super slicer?

[twin acorn]

Regular dna splicers, just recently restarted my save file

[blazing python]

How did you install the game? Was it a website?

The bug you are running into is just a normal function of the game and it isn’t broken

[twin acorn]

I've had the game installed for years, but came back from 5.3 to update to v6.0.2 using the link from downloads

[blazing python]

Did you install this in a new folder or from your existing files?

And you used infinitefusion.zip?

[twin acorn]

The installer?

[blazing python]

The zip file when you extract you get a folder and install_or_update.bat

[twin acorn]

When I came back to update to 6.0.2 I just did an overwrite of everything, then a moment ago I used that batch file from your youtube vid to update to 6.0.4

But the only reason I went from .2 to .4 was cause I couldn't fuse, and hoped it would resolve :p

[blazing python]

That is probably the issue, trying to overwrite files. You should do this process in a brand new folder fresh

Your save file isn’t touched by updating or deleting your old folder

But you should get InfiniteFusion.zip. Extract to a brand new folder and open the game from that new folder and try again

[twin acorn]

I'll try that then, thank yous

Yeah, fresh install worked. Cheers, matey

[blazing python]

nice!

[twin acorn]

Yep! Now I can play the game again :p

[toxic marlin]

I know this probably silly to ask, is it possible to download the ROM and play on a rom sim on phone?

[turbid terrace]

Hey @toxic marlin! 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 #tech-support message

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.

[blazing python]

this game isnt a rom so no

if you have an android there is an Android guide in the FAQ in the 1st pinned message of this channel

[toxic marlin]

Gotcha thought I'd ask but I did figure that to begin with 😅

[toxic marlin]

I do, I shall check that out now

[lean obsidian]

anyone knows how i can fix the 5 second delay after beating a pokemon/running away from mons or just when the screen goes black? i followed megaman's mac tutorial

[blazing python]

have you tried using the game-preloaded.exe instead of game.exe?

[lean obsidian]

oh do i have to restart my progress?

[blazing python]

game-preloaded has better performance

[lean obsidian]

i turned off online downloads

[blazing python]

game-preloaded is the optimized version that uses the sprites from the files I provided

[lean obsidian]

oh ok

[blazing python]

that is the only thing to increase performance

[lean obsidian]

when you update the sprite, how do i update my thing? do i have to restart the game

[blazing python]

what do you mean by update the sprite?

[lean obsidian]

when you update the file on the video my bad

do i hve to restart my progress

[blazing python]

you shouldnt if you just change the .exe you are using.

[lean obsidian]

oh ok

[blazing python]

you can right click the app you created and click Show Contents

Show packaged contents

then click on WineSkin

Then Click on Advanced Options I believe it is

In the middle it is the path of the .exe you are opening. Click browse to change it to game-preloaded.exe instead of game.exe

I am doing this by memory in case the terminology is a little off

[lean obsidian]

oh ok

[blazing python]

when you click browse it has to be from that drive_c folder

since you copied the folder into WineSkin

[austere plume]

can some one walk me through how to add the custom battlers?

[blazing python]

so just follow the path it is currently in to where game.exe is to find the other .exe

[lean obsidian]

do i go to program files x86 or just program files

[blazing python]

follow the same exact path that it has there now

[blazing python]

just drag that folder directly on top of the Graphics folder

[austere plume]

the newest one?

like the september custome battlers one

[lean obsidian]

its just a blank screen when i start the preloadded one

[blazing python]

yeah wait

preloaded is preloading sprites in the beginning to make it faster in game

[blazing python]

yeah when you download that and extract it you have CustomBattlers folder right?

[lean obsidian]

does preloaded have alt sprites?

[blazing python]

just drag that on top of your graphics folder where your game is

[lean obsidian]

like for example charizard/nidoking

[blazing python]

in my video I explain what preloaded is. It means you have ALL the sprites downloaded locally on your computer

which I provided

[lean obsidian]

ohh

how long does the black screen usually take? and do i have to wait for the black screen every time i launch?

[turbid terrace]

Hey @lean obsidian! 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

[blazing python]

yes it is everytime. Usually like 45 seconds, but depends on your device

if your mac is old, then will take longer

[lean obsidian]

oh alr

[austere plume]

every time i try to extract it it says the folder wont respond

[blazing python]

you might be trying to extract it multiple times at once idk

[blazing python]

quick question, why are you installing this?

are you playing the regular game? Like using the file game to open the game?

[austere plume]

what do you mean?\

yeah but i dont have the newest custome battlers i dont think

[blazing python]

The regular game downloads this over the internet as you encounter the pokemon

you change the sprites from the pokedex entries

[austere plume]

?

[blazing python]

that is how the game is designed

[austere plume]

so if i go to the pokedex entry i can scrol thru the different sprites?

[blazing python]

if you encountered that pokemon yeah

?tag alt

[pearl magnet]

To change a Pokemon's sprite to an alternative one, go to their Pokedex entry (this can be done from their summary screen) and go to the "Sprites" tab. Here you can scroll through the different available sprites.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOY_mxJ-Bx8

[blazing python]

The video above shows you

[shy pulsar]

When you capture them they let u select which sprite you want!

[austere plume]

oh i didnt know that ty

[blazing python]

you only need to download custom sprites if you playing the preloaded or offline mode

but the game by default downloads these

[austere plume]

ok so it automatically adds them?

[blazing python]

as you play

yeah

[austere plume]

awesome thanls

thanks*

ill admit i forget you can just edit it sometimes

so in the pokedex it says theres a fusion named fraxo, but on the fusions dex it says theres a fusion named fraxieno, both being fraxure and deino

[blazing python]

this game has 2 fusions per pokemon

example: bulbasaur + charmander and charmander + bulbasaur.

[austere plume]

they are the same one tho

on the website it says that fraxure head and deino body gives fraxeino

but on my game its frano

[blazing python]

not everything in the website matches the game

[austere plume]

so there might just not be a fraxeino?

[blazing python]

potentially or it is a bug in game. I've seen 6.x having bugs for some fusion names

[austere plume]

yeah it has the same dex entry but not the right name and when i go to loko at other spirtes there arent any

[blazing python]

it depends if you own the pokemon or not

you cant change sprites for pokemon you dont own

[royal nova]

What’s the latest version that the playstore joiplay can run?

I’m still throwing hands with 1s and 0s

[austere plume]

i have the fusion in my team

[blazing python]

JoiPlay 1.20.410-patreon and RPG Maker Plugin 1.20.41-patreon-release

[blazing python]

You could try resetting your sprite pull:

1. Turn off Download Sprites option in setting inside the game.
2. Leave the menu by pressing Enter on Confirm or pressing B (if you don't, this won't work).
3. Go back to Settings.
4. Turn option back on.

[royal nova]

I mean version of the game, that the joiplay 1.01.701 can run

[blazing python]

the version of the game doesn't matter

the plugins are the ones that need to be specific. if you arent using the versions I listed it wont work

[austere plume]

how do i get to the settings

[blazing python]

the ones I listed above are the newer versions. The versions in this link are the other combo that works: https://www.patreon.com/posts/81829260

[blazing python]

open your bag and go to settings

[royal nova]

I’ve gotten IF to work on this version of joiplay a couple times, I can’t download anything not from the playstore, cause my things stupid

[austere plume]

where in the bag is it

[lean obsidian]

im still lagging quite a bit on the preloaded version

[blazing python]

open your menu is what I meant to say lol like settings

where the game music settings are

[blazing python]

then it is your computer

[austere plume]

under options?

[blazing python]

yeah

[austere plume]

cause if its the options menu i dont see it there

yeah i dont see it there

[lean obsidian]

im having about the same performances using the online ver and the preloaded ver

[blazing python]

scroll to the bottom

[blazing python]

yeah preloaded is the optimized version. if it is still slow with that then that is unfortunately the fastest you can get it

[austere plume]

i dont see the Download Sprites option tho

[blazing python]

it is the 4th option

[austere plume]

my 4th option is autosave i dont have it

[blazing python]

how did you install the game?

from a website?

[austere plume]

from here i believe

[blazing python]

i think you might have fake files

that option for download sprites is there by default with this game

it is never not there

[austere plume]

so do i use the if github download

that could be why

that its not the normal one

[blazing python]

2nd post in #downloads

InfiniteFusion.zip, use these instructions if you need -> #tech-support message

[hearty crown]

Hi I need help with the Linux download for 6.0.

[blazing python]

Linux is a small player base so the only Linux guides we have is from Steam Deck: https://docs.google.com/document/d/108xa23SpLuTrUVpQAJbmhNhLJ3hrsgZXPE3fnPL7tAY/edit

[hearty crown]

ok

[blazing python]

the game is designed for windows, other devices is a workaround so just community guides for them

[hearty crown]

Thank you

[austere plume]

do i need to extract InfniteFusion.Zip

[frail dune]

Trying to check the discord for this problem but cant seem to find it...anyone know whats up? I've hda this happen whenever i catch my first mon in a save file lately

[blazing python]

yes

[blazing python]

1. you are 3 versions behind
2. you need to go to the pokemon center. Go to update man, guy with a black suit usually on 2F, and select Randomized Options. Select Reshuffle Wild Encounters/Pokemon

[frail dune]

oh i did not realize I was 3 versions behind lmfao

[blazing python]

yeah a lot of bug fixes

anytime there is a new update, and you update your game, you need to reshuffle pokemon

or else you get that error

[royal nova]

Looking for the 5.2 download, I think I can get that one to work

[frail dune]

got it ty!

[austere plume]

@blazing python it says find the thing that says game but idk where to find that

like where does the file named game show up

[blazing python]

if you dont see files in the folder that means there was an error when you opened Install_or_update.batch

[shell patio]

anyone got green lines on the screen??

[blazing python]

take a screenshot of the prompt when you open the batch

[blazing python]

that is a graphics card issue with old laptops

[austere plume]

whats the batch

[shell patio]

so no solution?

[austere plume]

nvm i see it now

[blazing python]

you should look at the video guide in the instructions if you need more instructions

hard to do every step at a time

[blazing python]

only solution ive seen is this if you click here -> #tech-support message

[shell patio]

ok i will see

thanks

[rich spindle]

So I keep getting this error for some reason on any exe that isn't the game-default.exe

[blazing python]

yeah if you want to play game-preloaded you need to download the preloaded sprites. the installer doesn't install the sprites you have to do that

[rich spindle]

Ah thanks for the help. Also is there a fix for having lag on the party screen. I know it was an issue in the past but I don't know if there is a fix.

[blazing python]

only optimized version of the game is preloaded. if you want faster performance that is the only way atm

the 1st pinned message has instructions on how to set that up if you need

[rich spindle]

Thx

[misty warren]

Hi, I'm trying to download the game and this appear, I tried 2 times already and it's the same, What can I do?

[austere plume]

@blazing python so ive done thing thing where i double clicked and the other file stuff hasnt showed up and in the video u said to contact you guys so i dont know what to do

it says
fatal: write error: No space left on device
error: remote origin already exists.
ERROR: The system cannot find the file specified.
Data
System ERROR:
The system cannot find the file specified.
so does it mean i have no space left?

[blazing python]

Says no space left

You need 3gb of file space on your machine

[austere plume]

ok

i have 7gb remaining im confused

[blazing python]

This looks good. Ignore the errors you should be good

[blazing python]

Hm that is odd yeah it specifically says no space left on device

[austere plume]

yeagh

can i send a screenshot of my file space?

[blazing python]

Sure

[austere plume]

@blazing python i cant find the screenshot

[tribal horizon]

hello i have a question: i have a problem with game installation, i have launcher but game cant be installed idk why

[blazing python]

launcher is broken. use instructions in the pinned message to install

[tribal horizon]

i download zip, now works thanks

[minor rock]

I check by everyday, and I'm always sad when I see you saying this.

[river escarp]

It can't be helped

There's a lot of kids and people who generally don't have tech literacy skills joining

[minor rock]

the launcher is so pretty tho. I can't wait to use it 😄

[light swift]

So idk why but whenever I activate surf the movement on it just lags to all hell.
Any ideas what might be causing it?

Furthermore the same issue happens with certain fusions that have no custom sprites and are just those generator ones

[blazing python]

https://tenor.com/view/fix-futurama-help-fry-fixit-gif-4525230

ive been waiting too haha i cant wait until the launcher is ready to go

[blazing python]

the performance of the Game depends on your pc and internet. Most Laptops and some PCs struggle. if slow, only way around it is using "game-preloaded" but this requires you to download all the sprites yourself from this channel.

[light swift]

I do use the preloaded version but it still slows down like that

[blazing python]

then that is the best it can run at the moment on your machine

preloaded is the most optimized version we have

[light swift]

Would speeding up the game via space bar maybe cause it?

[blazing python]

yeah it could be. Trying to load more of the game at a quick speed

youd have to play around with it

[light swift]

so it's likely that it's lagging just due to me speeding it up with the space bar?

[blazing python]

it is a total guess. You'd have to test it, but just assuming it is like other games because you are loading more assets faster it could lag the game for you, but I still think it is based on your computer overall

[coarse remnant]

So a friend of mine, when he tries to install the game through the launcher, the launcher crashes before it finishes installing

[rigid tinsel]

its me

it wont let me install after downloading the launcher

[grave flower]

@weary scroll he just went over that same problem

[rigid tinsel]

ty

ill update ya

[blazing python]

launcher is broken. use instructions in the pinned message to install

[coarse remnant]

Crazy. I wonder why it works for me but not @rigid tinsel

[weary scroll]

what

[blazing python]

It is a very low success rate if it works right now. Plus the launcher has five critical bugs right now, so it is not recommended to use.

[sterile pivot]

helpme please, i talking in spanish xd

[blazing python]

You need a better graphics card

[sterile pivot]

fuck xd i have a laptop xd

[blazing python]

Or update the driver

[sterile pivot]

how?

[blazing python]

You have to Google that. on laptops, they have their own graphics card drivers

[grave flower]

i basically answer their question by direct it to the previous answer to that same question lol

[sterile pivot]

Is this here or in bugs?

[blazing python]

I think you have to reinstall the game from scratch. this was fixed in the prior version but it looks like it had an issue updating because this version has the fix on it

[sterile pivot]

bruh

i just downloaded the game like 5 days ago

;-;

[sterile pivot]

thanks

[blazing python]

Yeah, that is very weird because that is a 6.0.3 error and this was directly fixed in 6.0.4

[coarse remnant]

It doesnt even give an error for him, just crashes and insta closes

[blazing python]

For who?

[coarse remnant]

@rigid tinsel

[blazing python]

Yeah, his problem is with the launcher. I already replied to him about that.

[rigid tinsel]

Me

[weary scroll]

ohhhh I see, you pinged the wrong person, similar name starts n' stuff (I think)

[blazing python]

The launcher has a very low success rate of working. There are no workaround right now to fix it. No ETA is on bug fixes for it

[weary scroll]

I got really confused of what the hell I'm doing here in tech supp

[rigid tinsel]

no error just hard crash im just not using the launcher n downloading other thing and using sprites to move it in instead

me asf reading all this

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/786322449863540767/1018522443964502106/BURNDANCE-21.gif

[blazing python]

Yeah if you wanna play the game, you have to use the instructions in the first pin message of this channel

[rigid tinsel]

the launcher isnt working, im just going to use the other zip and update the sprites as instructed in the downloads since my previous issue

[blazing python]

Yup exactly what I am referring to Lol

[grave flower]

thats .... what he have been telling you to do

[rigid tinsel]

yeah i figured since i read it lol

frendo was confused still lol

i apologize

[mint warren]

I have the game installed but i am trying to play using the launcher. i can not put the game onto the launcher

[blazing python]

launcher is broken. use instructions in the 1st pinned message to install

[mint warren]

ok thanks

[lost chasm]

How do I fix this

[blazing python]

Update your game to the latest version 6.0.4 and go to the Pokémon center. Talk to update man and select fix game

[lost chasm]

Ok ty

[obtuse rivet]

I cant get into the game im just on start menu

[foggy venture]

How do I properly update my game without losing my save files?

[blazing python]

press Enter

[blazing python]

Click Here to get back to (Preloaded Sprite Instructions) -> [Back to Instructions](#tech-support message)

Drag Graphics folder ontop of your InfiniteFusion folder

[lost chasm]

Ok I updated to 6.04 and talked to update man but I still have a vision issue

[blazing python]

How did you install the game?

If this fix did not work, then either your game didn't update (you can check the number on the title screen) or you have fake files

[uneven marsh]

Is there any reason why I'm not able to use the debug menu in new game+?

[foggy venture]

I have it installed on my Steam Deck. I don't know if it helps, but looks like this:

[blazing python]

you need the magic boots item

[blazing python]

you should use my tutorial on the FAQ for Steam Deck to save you a lot of time. Link -> https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mxcg61k6XoWjkKJdwcMW5Ql6YUsJZ9RpkFffTmWev_Q/edit#heading=h.15pi7ce8hpt4

[foggy venture]

Ahh excellent, ty

[lost chasm]

I just downloaded from first infinitefusion when I googled. It was 6.02 before I updated now 6.04

[blazing python]

this game doesn't have an official website so those are fake files. you should delete and run a virus scan

only way to install the game is from the instructions in the 1st pinned message in this channel or our guides we provide

[uneven marsh]

@blazing python i thought in new game+ you were supposed to automatically have them

[spiral spruce]

no

you need to catch all base mons

[blazing python]

someone in game help said if you have achieved magic boots and start a new game, you can use Update Man to fix game and populate pokedex for you. but idk if that is true or not

[proven verge]

whats the best wway to update? i dont wanna download a bunch of stuff if i can avoid it

[blazing python]

it depends how you installed the game

how did you install?

[proven verge]

i dont remember lol

[blazing python]

do you have install_or_update.bat in your game folder right now?

[spiral spruce]

use that

[blazing python]

yup double click that and it will update

[proven verge]

i tried that

ill try one more time

[blazing python]

then you got an error

after it stops take a screenshot and post here

[proven verge]

ok

wait earlier it said it was done but now it says it failed

[blazing python]

When it completes, IGNORE THIS TEXT: ERROR: The system cannot find the file specified. Data\species.zip. System ERROR: The system cannot find the file specified.

all that stuff doesn't matter

but share a screenshot of it so I can take a look

[proven verge]

i tried again

[blazing python]

ignore that

i need a screenshot of the whole thing

[blazing python]

you still cutting it off... lol but the top part is the error

[blazing python]

yeah so that Fatal error there is the main issue. You need to delete the .git folder in your game folder

this one

It is a hidden folder, if you don't see it you need to enable hidden files on your computer

[proven verge]

this?

[blazing python]

no

[proven verge]

oh i found it

now what

[blazing python]

delete the .git folder

then try again

[proven verge]

ok

[blazing python]

if it worked, you will see that in the square brackets

ignore everything in the X

[proven verge]

it worked thanks so much

[jolly hill]

herro

so, tldr, can't get controller support working

tried opening the installer thru steam, tried a ps5 controller and a switch pro controller

ps5 being wired in, switch pro not

[blazing python]

what system are you playing on?

[jolly hill]

pccccc

[blazing python]

Yeah unfortunately controller support does not work for this game. You can play with controller, but you can't control the button mapping and the remap option from in game only affects keyboard

[jolly hill]

wait but

why is there default options for gamepad mappings then?

like in the bindings section, there's spots default set to like "gamepad X"

[blazing python]

As I mentioned, on controller the mapping is whatever the game decides to map it to. Not sure why it maps it the way it does tbh

[jolly hill]

huh...

[blazing python]

this has been an issue for years

[jolly hill]

I looked on reddit before coming here

and some people had apparently launched the game through steam and it worked?

but

with it being an launcher

it didn't work for me

idk if there was an old version that wasn't an launcher

launcher

[blazing python]

launcher is new, only 16 days old

so they might have been adding the game.exe directly from steam and not the launcher

[jolly hill]

so

is there a present way to run the exe as opposed to the launcher?

[blazing python]

yeah the original way never went away

[jolly hill]

point me in the direction, friend

[blazing python]

but the launcher installs it the same way, it just has a UI to it

So try this

[jolly hill]

take your time no rush

[blazing python]

Go to steam and press + Game and select Add a Non Steam Game

[jolly hill]

I'm chilling. been wanting to play this for a couple days haha

[blazing python]

Click Browse

[jolly hill]

okie

that's what I did for the launcher

so far

[blazing python]

Go to this path: C:\Users\YOUR NAME\AppData\Roaming\InfiniteFusionLauncher\InfiniteFusion\Game.exe

[jolly hill]

ooo

okie

uno momento por favor

[blazing python]

so when you launch the game, it is the game directly and not the launcher

[jolly hill]

right right

so

running into some issues

A: I don't know if this is relevant, but the game is installed on the root

B: for some reason, when browsing for the path you mentioned, it's not showing me the App Data folder...

wtf

[spiral spruce]

did you search for "your name" or your name?

[jolly hill]

even looking through my file explorer I don't see that path

yeah I'm actually in my own file explorer going there manually

wtf

am I being a doofus or

[blazing python]

no you dont have hidden folders enabled on your computer to see them

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/view-hidden-files-and-folders-in-windows-97fbc472-c603-9d90-91d0-1166d1d9f4b5

[jolly hill]

yep. new laptop

thank you

[blazing python]

you can also just click on the trail at the top to paste in the path

[jolly hill]

uno momento once again, por favor 🤣

[blazing python]

if you click on that bar, you can type in a path as well

either works

[jolly hill]

needed to view hidden stuff anyway, ty

now gonna try that

[blazing python]

you paste it on the one of the left not the right

[jolly hill]

the path looked fine, I went back from the beginning manually, but when you get to the InfiniteFusionLauncher part of the path, that's the last good part of the path

that was just me looking for the path

hang on I'll show you what I mean

[blazing python]

click there

not on the right

[jolly hill]

I also looked manually

hang on

[blazing python]

lets make it easier

open the launcher

click settings on the top right

that opens your game folder

you can get the path from my first screenshot

[jolly hill]

so

this is literally everything in that InfiniteFusionLauncher folder

and InfiniteFusion isn't something in there

[blazing python]

then you might have chosen a different path when you installed the game

use the launcher pictures I sent above to find where you put it... lol

[jolly hill]

it should be on the root of the device because that was the only way I could get it to even install the launcher

but lemme go do that thing

[blazing python]

not sure that is something you would need to find. i only know where it is if you didnt change the path 🤷‍♂️

[jolly hill]

sigh yep

but hey

it's weirdly seperated from the app data

no idea why

but it's there

straight up just on my C lol

nowwwww let's try to solve the original problem haha

wait

do I want game or game default

[blazing python]

doesnt matter both the same

[jolly hill]

okie dokie

[blazing python]

dev just made a copy

[jolly hill]

LOL

[frigid axle]

Hello, whenever someone gets a moment, I’d like to play IF on my IPad and I just downloaded the files. I need a bit of assistance to get into the game and start playing.

[blazing python]

it doesnt work on ipad

only mobile device it works on is android and steam deck

[frigid axle]

Aww, alright then. Thanks

[jolly hill]

holy guacamole

I think it might work

tried to go into the mappings to make sure everything was working but the menu still does stuff while you're rebinding <.< lol

but so far this is way more than ever worked before

[blazing python]

yeah rebinding wont work regardless

[jolly hill]

ohhh

[blazing python]

but steam has better controller support so buttons will work better

[jolly hill]

well, it seems like X is A and circle is B which is great

I'm going to see what's up, get into the game, if I have any more questions I'll come ask! ty!

[sturdy dirge]

Sorry to ask but, I got this error when I tried starting a new save file, what should I do?

[opal wing]

I've asked this yesterday and had no luck finding an answer so I'm asking this again, does anyone know how to solve this download problem? I've checked the how to download video but all I've got is this. (I've also tried redownloading the zip file over and over again jic there's a corrupted download but nothing worked)

[spiral spruce]

did you unzip the file?

[opal wing]

yup, it's in a folder in desktop

[spiral spruce]

that doesnt look like it was unzipped

[opal wing]

it's unzipped

[spiral spruce]

there should be other files if it was

[blazing python]

No only that folder and batch file

[opal wing]

then what should it look like when you download it?

cuz this is what it looks like right after you unzip

before you run the batch file

[spiral spruce]

when i unzipped it it had a bunch of different ones

[opal wing]

whenever I try to download I got the error message mentioned above

[blazing python]

Then you probably downloaded the preloaded. This is InfiniteFusion.zip

[opal wing]

could you download and send me a pic? I want to compare what's different between ours

[blazing python]

What you have is expected

The error is weird though

[sturdy dirge]

Nevermind I fixed it

[opal wing]

yeah which is why I'm confused

[blazing python]

You can do this instead

[opal wing]

I've done exactly as the download video explained but that's what I got

only difference I can find is they use 7zip while I use winrar

[blazing python]

Wait

[opal wing]

apparently it doesn't exist anymore?

[blazing python]

Not that one

Yeah old link

[opal wing]

ah alr

no wonder it's 6.0.3

[blazing python]

Go here -> #tech-support message

[opal wing]

I'm assuming that's just a giant file with all the sprite in and everything right? like the regular way fangame was downloaded before the installer exist?

cuz that a giant ass file

3 hours to download XD

[blazing python]

Yeah complete game and sprites setup

[opal wing]

well alr this should be a fine alternative

[blazing python]

1.2gb is just sprites

[opal wing]

yeah it's large af... I'll be back in 3 hours to report if it works or not

tbh I'm confused why they removed this style of download, it's a good alternative if the installer isn't working fsr (like mine).

[blazing python]

Cause of the large download

Takes a long time to extract as well

Depending on your computer and internet this is impossible for some ppl

[opal wing]

that's fair but, it's still and alternative download

not the main one

[blazing python]

Yeah that is why I provide it as a last resort

[opal wing]

but ig from the video the installer is just so much better

[blazing python]

Yeah

The sprites are still downloaded separately though

[opal wing]

too bad it doesn't work for me

[blazing python]

The launcher whenever it gets fixed will be better

Just 1 button install

[opal wing]

yeah, hopefully it gets better

I'm going back into IF cuz I wanna play with meloetta and see the fusion sprite in the game

[blazing python]

Oh not out yet

[opal wing]

didn't know I have this much trouble trying to download the game XD

yeah ik

but I can replace other sprite as placeholder and see how it looks

I'm excited cuz I love idol looking pokemon so meloetta that's going to be in is exciting :3

[blazing python]

Yeah I just wouldn’t expect it anytime soon. Probably months out unfortunately

[opal wing]

that's fair

doing all the fusion gotta be annoying

I wonder how relic song going to work, if it'll work at all

anything this is getting off-topic, thx for the help, here's hoping I can play the game :)

[sterile pivot]

Is there a way to make a game run faster (there's certain areas where the game just pauses for at minimum of 8-12 seconds

[blazing python]

the performance of the Game depends on your pc and internet. Most Laptops and some PCs struggle. if slow, only way around it is using "game-preloaded" but this requires you to download all the sprites yourself from this channel.

If you using game-preloaded already and still slowness, then you would need to look at your computer

[sterile pivot]

Do you think it's worth the swap?

From dynamic to preload

[blazing python]

I regardless download the full sprites from this channel so it is less load and connections to the internet

But I have no issues with either

[sterile pivot]

So if you download the sprites (even on dynamic) it might speed up some?

[blazing python]

Correct, but you might as well just use preloaded if you have all the sprites cause it is optimized for that

[sterile pivot]

Yeah

[blazing python]

As long as you turn off Download Sprite option from in game settings as well

[sterile pivot]

Alright, time for me to figure out how to download and plug sprites into the game

[blazing python]

The instructions and video are in the 1st pinned message in this channel

[sterile pivot]

Alright, thanks

I'm assuming I'm SOL until further notice?

[mellow dawn]

Hiii I just downed the zip on my android and extracted it how do I run it

[turbid terrace]

Hey @mellow dawn! 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 #tech-support message

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.

[blazing python]

If you click back to the message in discord, there is a YouTube link. The description has a mediafire link also

[blazing python]

Read the FAQ in the 1st pinned message of this channel

[mellow dawn]

Asking for heellp pls😭🥹

[sharp vapor]

I've tried installing the game a few times, futzing around with different settings, but every time I hit the install button, no matter what place I choose to install it, it stalls on this for about a minute and then crashes. any suggestions on how to fix this?

[blazing python]

Launcher is broken. Use the 1st pinned message in this channel for instructions to install the game

[mellow dawn]

@blazing python It only shows a tutorial for windows though mine is an android phone

[blazing python]

No it doesn’t. It says Android on the first page of the faq. Please read

[sharp vapor]

the first being the most recent?

[blazing python]

The one at the top with the directory on it

#1 Windows: Installing with the Alt Installer

[sterile pivot]

Thank you

[sharp vapor]

roight, workin on it now

[mellow dawn]

Lol thanks found it it was in a google doc

[blazing python]

Yeah that is the FAQ 😅

[mellow dawn]

💀bruv just tell me to click on the doc yknow most of this generation is dumb rite

Anyways thanks i downloaded it now

😘

[sharp vapor]

and if I understand correctly, once I got everything, the "Game" version will just download sprites as they're needed, so I don't need to download the spritepacks myself?

[blazing python]

Yes correct!

[sharp vapor]

coolio, tyty

[sterile pivot]

Do I do the same thing as installing the game? "extract all"

[blazing python]

The files I gave you already have the sprites. You don’t need to do this

[sterile pivot]

Oh

[blazing python]

That is why the download was like 3gb

[sterile pivot]

So I already have the sprite packs?

[blazing python]

Yeah

[sterile pivot]

Oh

My bad 🤣

[blazing python]

I mentioned that a while back lol

But yeah just play the game now

[sterile pivot]

Alright, thank you again

[pulsar ore]

Hi all, i have been trying to read it up but i cant find the answer, is there anyway to remove or bring down the loading time? the long loading happen after all battles and when i enter and exits buildings
the time is around 1min each time

[blazing python]

the performance of the Game depends on your pc and internet. Most Laptops and some PCs struggle. if slow, only way around it is using "game-preloaded" but this requires you to download all the sprites yourself from this channel.

[sterile pivot]

Sounds familiar :/

[blazing python]

Yeah the way this game is developed slow internet and old computers don’t do well

[pulsar ore]

my pc is 4 years old an i have okey ++ internett speed

it runs bg3 with max ress no prob, but is this game harder?

[blazing python]

This game needs more optimization

The 1st pinned message in this channel has instructions if you want to give it a try

[pulsar ore]

ait

tnx

[blazing python]

My steam deck runs this fine with no lag

But I downloaded all of the sprites

[dense spindle]

Megaman I just followed that video in the docs you linked earlier for adding this to steam deck and it worked like a charm

[sterile pivot]

I get this starting up preloaded

[blazing python]

I’m glad it worked!

I thought you used my files from my video?

The file name is InfiniteFusion6.0.4.0SepSprites right?

You are opening the game from there?

[sterile pivot]

That?

[blazing python]

Oh sorry I think I got you confused with someone else

[sterile pivot]

Oh

[blazing python]

They had a purple picture so I got you confused

[sterile pivot]

Fair enough

[blazing python]

So I told you not to install the sprites, but I thought you were the other person

So you do have to install sprites for you to play preloaded

[sterile pivot]

I have the sprites downlaoded just not extracted cause that's where I stopped

So click "extract all"?

[blazing python]

UpdatesSprites.zip?

[sterile pivot]

Yes

[blazing python]

I suggest you use 7zip or winrar to extract

It has 300k sprites

[sterile pivot]

Alright

[blazing python]

Using windows extract is very slow

[sterile pivot]

How does one go through that process?

[blazing python]

https://www.win-rar.com/fileadmin/winrar-versions/winrar/winrar-x64-624.exe

Download winrar from there

Install it

When you right click a zip file now, you will see a WinRar option to extract

[sterile pivot]

Alright, thank you (again)

Extracted

I think

[blazing python]

I don’t see a folder for it

[sterile pivot]

My bad

Which extract?

[blazing python]

Extract to “UpdatesSprites\”

[sterile pivot]

Alright

[sterile pivot]

Need help, when I run the game on my tablet using Joiplay, the animation plays then goes black and some errors shows up about the rpg maker plugin, what do I do?

[blazing python]

The 1st pinned message in this channel has a FAQ. The Google Doc has an Android section at the bottom

[sterile pivot]

Tysm!

[dusty plover]

Yeah that was me well still have the same issue, even installed it with your YT guide. Now even the fused sprites are missing. Any other ideas?

[potent yew]

what should i do

[potent yew]

its preloaded one btw

[blazing python]

You turn off download sprites when playing preloaded? I’m using the same files and everything loads for me

[blazing python]

You need to install the preloaded sprites if you want to play preloaded. The 1st pinned messages in this channel has the instructions

[potent yew]

bro its taking so long

[drowsy needle]

help how do i change the sprites

[potent yew]

it worked! thanks megaman

[blazing python]

From inside the game?

[drowsy needle]

yes, the sprite of a pokemon

[blazing python]

?tag alt

[pearl magnet]

To change a Pokemon's sprite to an alternative one, go to their Pokedex entry (this can be done from their summary screen) and go to the "Sprites" tab. Here you can scroll through the different available sprites.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOY_mxJ-Bx8

[blazing python]

Video ^^

[drowsy needle]

ohhhh I see what my problem was

thank you

[dusty plover]

@blazing python Yeah i turned off automatic download, reinstalled everything fresh, started a new savefile. 😅

[jovial moss]

Is the sprite request bot bugged? Because I keep trying to request for no specific artist, yet it keeps requesting it to ohok3441

[sterile pivot]

Extraction is done

I just drag UpdatedSprites into InfiniteFusion and I'm done?

Clarifying so I don't mess up :/

[grim marlin]

Help me

[sterile pivot]

That's an issue for the joiplay server I believe

[grim marlin]

So I can't play?

[sterile pivot]

I sent you an invite to their discord

Check requests

They might be able to help

[opal wing]

heya megaman, just wanna update that the game is working fine now thx for that download link :)

[frosty basalt]

yo, I get stuck on a preparation loading crash when I try to install the dynamic game from most recent launcher off the repository. Can anyone help out?

[river escarp]

Launcher has issues use the alt launcher

Check the first pinned message in this channel

[sacred copper]

Game is just black screening on launch, and I cant uninstall via the launcher.

[turbid terrace]

Hey @sacred copper! 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

[sacred copper]

Alright, game works but it is incredibly laggy

Like taking 20-30 seconds for any encounter

[jolly granite]

I've done everything correctly with joiplay and thats all that shows up. Anyone know how to fix it?

[hot flicker]

You downloaded the app and plugin from joiplays patreon?
