[fast bolt]

It shouldn't do that. It opens with command prompt. Which is a default feature of windows.

[fathom sedge]

Hey how do you fix this

[fast bolt]

That file isn't used anymore. Ignore it.

[fathom sedge]

Thanks!

[fresh sky]

I tried again, it did the popup again asking if I want to download something that isn't on the Microsoft Store.

[trim fox]

I think there's just some weird permissions on your machine discouraging it from downloading from unknown sources

[loud bay]

Thank you

Anything else i should download

[fast bolt]

Nope

That's all you need

[loud bay]

No sprite pack?

[fast bolt]

It'll download sprites on its own as you play as long as you're connected to internet

[true bison]

cinnabar and mt ember is like that

i cant progress anymore

[fast bolt]

Reinstall

Looks like files got messed up

Your save will not be touched. It is not in the game folder.

[true bison]

it didnt work

damn :/

[blazing python]

what version of Windows do you have?

Also have you tried going to Pokemon Center and talking to Updateman? Guy in a black suit usually on 2F and selecting the Fix Game option?

[true bison]

fixed using debug mode

[blazing python]

what do you mean by debug mode?

[true bison]

i used tp to cinnabar and worked

[knotty field]

Every time I try to install the game I get this error toward about the 75-80% mark

[blazing python]

this is an internet issue. The launcher tends to timeout if your internet speed isn't that stable

we recommend installing the game without the launcher since the launcher is reallly buggy right now

Instructions if you need -> #tech-support message

[knotty field]

I'll give that a go then. I usually get 50-60 MB/s down speed though, so not sure how that works

Launcher downloads slow, so maybe just throttling issues

[blazing python]

The game pulls from the game repo and I find that throttles your speed a bit also

yeah

[knotty field]

@blazing python Do I still need to download sprites with this other download/install method? The link for the Sprites says it won't be needed for versions 6.0+

[blazing python]

Each of the methods to install the game will install the latest version of the game with the game files below:

    "Game" and "game-default" are the dynamic versions of the game.
    "Game-preloaded" is the preloaded version of the game.


Dynamic downloads the custom sprites as you play and requires a stable internet connection. This includes the monthly sprite packs so installing any sprites yourself is not needed.

Preloaded takes the sprites you downloaded manually to play the game. This results in better performance, but this is optimized to not take any files from the internet. This requires you to install the sprites from the tech-support channel to launch correctly.

[knotty field]

Waiting for it to receive objects, so just curious so I can download them while I wait if needed

[blazing python]

yeah they are zip files so you can download them separately. If you want ALL of them, they are in this channel. If you just want custom sprites it is in #downloads

[knotty field]

Ah fair enough. thanks

Think I'll just give up for now.

[blazing python]

that error message is a bug in the installer. It is referencing a file it doesn't use anymore so ignore this

if you have an error it would be above that

[knotty field]

Yea, but it never actually added anything to the folder

[blazing python]

yeah so there was an error above it

if you rerun it and take a screenshot of the window I can tell you what happened

[knotty field]

It says Error: remote origin already exists, but I am assuming that's because it's detecting the files on my one drive, since that's the directory it is referencing

[blazing python]

that isnt the error either

[knotty field]

And it's receiving files, so guessing that's a non-issue

[blazing python]

yeah if it is receiving files it is fine. It probably failed last time cause it timed out again or disconnected

similar to when you installed using the launcher

[hardy dome]

when i try to open the game after installing it this pops up and then the game crashes

[blazing python]

• Open game or game-default instead
• If you want to play game-preloaded, you need to install all of the sprites. This is mentioned in the first post in #downloads message
• The guides to do this are mentioned in that post as well

[hardy dome]

ty

[fast bolt]

Unexpected disconnect. Your internet cut out.

[blazing python]

Yup you keep getting disconnect errors. This is your 3rd time trying. Might need to reset modem or something

[bright pebble]

Can you help me pls

[fast bolt]

Open your save file folder and delete everything in there.

[knotty field]

I'll give that a go later I guess. Gotta leave right now anyway.

Appreciate the help, I'll try and sort this out when I get back

[indigo garnet]

Hi team, anyone knows how to fix audio issue with this game?

Never had an audio even during version 5. I had the latest version 6 now and audio still does not work for me

already tried reinstalling and same issue

[bright pebble]

I just did it and it good

Thank you i love you omggggg

Waouh

[blazing python]

usually audio issues stop happening after close and reopening the game a couple times for people that have reported an issue with audio

or double check your volume is actually on. Someone reported this and they turned their volume to 0 lol

[indigo garnet]

The problem is I never had an audio everytime I play it

I have audio on my pc. I did notice that both SE and BGM is at 0 so just trying that now with a new save

[blazing python]

yeah if it is at 0 that means no audio

[indigo garnet]

yup it was the audio settings on the game itself

odd that this was the first time Noticed this

Thank you for yurtime dark megaman

oh does anyone know if ps4 controllers work on this? If so how does it work?

[late bane]

it does work you just cant remap buttons

[dire stratus]

How do you like mess with the settings on randomizing and such like that

[fast bolt]

Save once and start a new game

[long siren]

Why do I get no exp on some fused mons?

[fast bolt]

Did you turn on level caps?

[long siren]

Oh ofc. lmao

Thnx

I needed to lvl up to beat my rival in Silph co which is 40+ but havent beaten Erika

[fast bolt]

Koga is also before silph

[trim fox]

Unfortunately no

[torn onyx]

Anytime I enter a new area or exits a battle it always take a while to load is their any time to speed it up

[fast bolt]

Click the thing that says PRELOADED

[real kiln]

Hello! getting an error when trying to open the game. Reinstalled it and was still getting an error. It says "Error downloading the Game: Response status code does not indicate success: 403 (rate limit exceeded)."

[blazing python]

Dont download using the launcher, it is buggy for most people

Use the instructions here -> #tech-support message

[real kiln]

Thanks!

[proven gyro]

Whenever I try installing the infinite fusion game it always says the response ended prematurely and quits the game, how do I get it to work?

[blazing python]

this is network related. Means your internet is not stable and disconnecting

as mentioned above your comment, you can use the instructions I linked to install without the launcher since it is really buggy anyways

[proven gyro]

Ohh alr should I delete the wineskin application with the infinite fusion launcher and make a new one without it

[blazing python]

correct, our MAC installation guide still uses WineSkin, but uses a different set of files you would use. It is here: https://youtu.be/eN4-4f6SZ0M?si=fERv4ZtkbAmg457o

[proven gyro]

Okayy thank u smm

[knotty field]

I think I'm finally good to go

[fast bolt]

Yes. That looks good.

That error at the bottom is for a file that's not used anymore. You can ignore it.

[knotty field]

Yea, that's what Megaman was saying. It was still giving me trouble, so I disabled Firewall and Windows Defender for the duration, and it went through no issue.

[astral geyser]

Does anyone know how to change the controls on mac?

Nevermind found out

[sharp sand]

I am having difficulty finding the update for 5.3.1? I am currently on 5.0.

[fast bolt]

5.0 is not compatible with anything after it

[fast bolt]

Current version is 6.04

[twin prism]

How fix that on mobile ?

[turbid terrace]

Hey @twin prism! 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 and glitchy.

The pinned message in https://discord.com/channels/302153478556352513/308392115338084360 has the updated Android Guide. If you need a shortcut use this -> #tech-support message

Nothing can likely be done about issues experienced on mobile, unfortunately, but you must use the plugin versions listed in the guide or else it won't work at all.

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

[fast bolt]

I said read the FAQ in the pins

[nimble urchin]

Hey, I just downloaded and installed the launcher setup - I click the icon/app, the loading wheel pops up for a sec on my cursor, and then nothing. No process is started. Is there something I'm doing wrong? I'm on Windows 11.

[fast bolt]

Don't use the launcher. Delete it and do this instead.

[nimble urchin]

Seems to be erroring out

[sharp sand]

So then where do I find the download for 6.04?

[fast bolt]

Look right above your post where I just told someone else how to download

[fast bolt]

Your problem is you're trying to put it on D drive. Move it to C. Preferably desktop. You can move it after it installs.

[obsidian tangle]

how do i update the game

[nimble urchin]

I moved it over to C:/ - I'm still seeing this error on run

[fast bolt]

Program files

Computers don't like messing with files there

I said put it on the desktop

The folder, not the install file

[knotty field]

Desktop or Downloads folder

Also you need to extract the files from the .zip before running, if you haven't done that already.

[nimble urchin]

Ah, I think I got it now

[knotty field]

But yea, move the whole thing to your C:/users/(profilename)/Downloads folder, or to Desktop

[nimble urchin]

I had git already installed on C

I deleted it and now its doing its business

[dire schooner]

Im also having this issue, does anybody know how to fix this yet?

[blazing python]

android?

[dire schooner]

No, Pc (Windows)

Still playing on Version 5.0 of the game since I want to finish my current game before adding all the new pokemons

[blazing python]

That is why, sprites cannot be pulled into that version of the game so the game is throwing an error trying to connect to the old repo

[dire schooner]

Ah thats why, is there a way around this or do I just have to update the game?

[blazing python]

if you are able to, probably turning off the download sprite option from in game settings. This will result in sprites not loading, but at least it won't crash

[nimble urchin]

Install successful, thanks!

[blazing python]

also 5.0 is too old to update to 6.x so you would lose your save

[fast bolt]

5.0 didn't have a download sprites setting

At least, I'm pretty sure it's from before that was a thing

[dire schooner]

Oh thats sad, I have like 90 hours in that save

[blazing python]

yeah that is why it is important to update regularly

[dire schooner]

Yeah good to know for future reference. Do you know if I can update to an earlier version (V5.1 for example) and then update to V6.0?

[blazing python]

never tried that since the installer by default installs to the latest version. If you post your Save file here, I can give it a try to see if it works

[dire schooner]

Is this the file you need?

[blazing python]

yeah

[blazing python]

did you get the error anywhere specific?

[dire schooner]

When starting up the game

Right after the opening cutscene

[blazing python]

it opens for me on 5.3.1.2

opens fine on 6.0.4 latest version. You will notice your screen like this

it is cause it triggered the new legend quest

[dire schooner]

Allright, then i'll just update. So I should just be able to update to 6.0.4 then?

[blazing python]

yeah from this test your save is fine updating from 5.0 to 6.0.4

[dire schooner]

Great! Thanks for your help!

[blazing python]

Fly to lavendar town then go up I believe to continue the quest line for the black circle once you get back in game

[dire schooner]

Good to know, thanks

[blazing python]

I know you usually say 5.1 and older can't upgrade to 6.0.4. In this case he is fine, but is there some story that breaks it somewhere early on in the game? It could be it worked for him cause he is in end game already

[dire schooner]

Just updated and started it up, and everything seems to be working. Thanks again for your help!

[fast bolt]

Story changed in 5.1. The save location and name changed from 4.9 to 5.0. Yeah, if he already did everything in the game then it would likely work fine.

[blazing python]

Got it that makes sense

[fast bolt]

You can load a 5.0 save. But you won't be able to progress the story if you didn't already finish it.

[obtuse crag]

I can't install the game lol, when i click install, nothing happens

[blazing python]

can you share a screenshot of the black window that opens when you run INSTALL_OR_UPDATE

[obtuse crag]

nothing happens actually, is just the same screen but i can't click or anything

Wait

it was my old pc lol

it's installing now

thanks

[pulsar trout]

Hello im having an issue a while ago that makes my game outdoors map go black, someone know why? or any solution or recomendation?

[blazing python]

what version of windows are you on?

[pulsar trout]

10

[blazing python]

what version of the game are you on?

[pulsar trout]

6.0.4

[paper wind]

Save and exit for a temporary fix.

[blazing python]

Yeah that is odd, this is purely a loading issue with your game. The only thing I recommend is reinstalling in a fresh folder and then talk to Update Man in the pokemon center, usually 2F with the black suite, and selecting Fix Game

[pulsar trout]

thanks, im going to try that, ill let you know if it worked or not

[dire stratus]

should the version i have downloaded already have everything thats current

[dire stratus]

thanks

ever since i saw my favorite poketubers get this ive been dying to play it

got a pc for christmas

[blazing python]

Nice! It is definately fun and you get a lot of crazy fusions. Especially the Mr Mime ones... lol

[jagged lichen]

Hi again, i have been playing the game and unlocked the teleport device. I have been using it constantly but now it doesn't work, when i use it the town map comes up but there is no cursor and i can only move right or down, i cannot move up or left nor select anything

[blazing python]

the cursor is at the bottom right of the map, you have to move Up Left to see it again and then it will work again

it is basically off screen and you have to move it back on screen to see it. It is a known bug

[jagged lichen]

I've done what you said but neither i see the cursor nor it apperas aain

again

and i can't move up or left still

[blazing python]

yeah just keep moving it around until you see it. This is a known issue and has been the workaround for a while.

[jagged lichen]

ok, it didn't work, but after teleporting to a random place by using the debug mode it suddenly appeared again

[rustic oar]

Hey all, I'm completely new to Pokémon IF and noticed that almost all of the normal pokemon sprites (non-fusion sprites) are missing in game. I'm sure this is a mistake of my own but I'm not sure what I've done wrong?

[blazing python]

You need to reset your sprite pull (you have to be connected to the internet):

1. Turn off Download Sprites option in setting inside the game. Like where your game volume is. This is the 4th option
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.

I would recommend after doing this save your game, completely close the game and reopen and try again.

[rustic oar]

I'm currently using preloaded I believe

[blazing python]

if you are using preloaded, have Download Sprites option turned Off.

did you use the zip UpdatesSprites.zip to install the sprites?

[rustic oar]

No, I downloaded the sprite pack for all sprites up to October

[verbal timber]

that would be why

[blazing python]

yeah then you set it up incorrectly

[rustic oar]

Oh alrighty

[blazing python]

Use these instructions -> #tech-support message

All of this info is provided to you in the 1st post of #downloads message

[rustic oar]

Okay tysm, I clearly must have missed something. Appreciate the help!

[valid copper]

I am using the preloaded version and the UpdatesSprites.zip, I don't know if I did something wrong(sorry if any gramar errors I am using google translator to write this)

But every where i go there is no background

[blazing python]

Open JoiPlay and long tap on the Game icon and then tap optimize maps. Joiplay will optimize the maps

[pulsar trout]

tysm, it worked, great solution

[wheat apex]

so, I've downloaded everything for the game files that was recommended to me and now it is saying this. The only way its letting me use the game is if I extract everything in winRAR but that just isn't efficient enough

[blazing python]

you dont have all of the game files in there

how did you install this?

[wheat apex]

oh? What's missing

[blazing python]

it is incomplete

a lot

[wheat apex]

btw, those are all the fiels that came from the MediaFire link on your own YouTube video unless something has gone wrong during extraction of files

[blazing python]

yeah you probably stopped the extraction early or thought it was done and trying to open the game when it didn't fully extract

it is supposed to have all of this

[wheat apex]

I found the missing files, some of the files were extracted properly but some just sat there in winRAR without extracting properly. It did seem weird how quick the extraction

Sorry for bothering you and thx for the help

[blazing python]

you shouldn't open the rar file anyways

just right click the rar and go to the Winrar option and click Extract to "Folder name"

[wheat apex]

That's what I did, I dunno what happened

[blazing python]

yeah i would recommend deleting the folder it extracted and try again

[wheat apex]

yeah, ok, ty anyway though

[jade pelican]

Hey all, hope you are well

I'm currently struggling to add a sprite

I was able to do it in the past

Where do I add it to?

I've followed instructions someone gave

then just added them to other folders

I got it

[blazing python]

When you place sprites in Graphics/CustomBattlers, it should ask you when you reopen the game that it found new custom sprites and if you want to replace the current ones you have.

[jade pelican]

after restarting many times

Thankfully I got it! that's exactly what happened

Thank you megaman

[worldly urchin]

I would like to use the normal default base sprites instead of custom ones, is there an easy way to go about doing that? What I've currently done is deleted the Graphics\CustomBattlers\customBaseSprites folder, and when the sprite comes up in game, it will be blank for a minute or two while the game figures out there's no file, and then it will display the normal one.
I see that this mapping is in my save file, and I tried adjusting all the paths there manually but this corrupted my save (luckily I made a backup just in case that happened, so all is well).
Am I perhaps overthinking all of this and there's a config or one line I can adjust somewhere?

[blazing python]

if you want to do this for the pokemon you are using in your party, you can just change this from their pokedex entry

[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

[worldly urchin]

Oh, that's a cool feature. But no, I'd like to do this for all the base sprites blanketly.

Not any of the fusions, to be clear, just the base ones like Bulbasaur, Sandshrew, etc.

[jade pelican]

you probably need to change the files then

at least that's how i'd think of doing it

There's a file called "battlers" that has all the sprites in it

if that's what you're talking about

you can get rid of all of them except the ones you want

[worldly urchin]

The folder structure is different though, so I'd have to write a script to do it instead of copy-pasting. Which is an option, but I'm hoping there's an easier way.

[verbal timber]

there isn't a way to do that sadly, at least not without exaustive work of either manually removing sprites from the files...or changing sprites one by one

[jade pelican]

You can install KIF which i believe changes it to just be one folder

let me double check that

[worldly urchin]

What is KIF?

[jade pelican]

ah it's not i dont think

bare with me

[verbal timber]

a mod for the game

#general message

[jade pelican]

no im sorry it doesnt do that

so yea, it's pretty awkward to deal with

There's a folder called "basesprites"

did you say you deleted the "battlers" folder?

[blazing python]

BaseSprites from the Other folder is already what is inside of customBaseSprites if you are using UpdatesSprites.zip from the preloaded instructions

[worldly urchin]

I am doing that, yes. Thanks for that guide btw, was having trouble getting preloaded to work.

[blazing python]

then it should technically be done unless for example 1.png isn't the "base" sprite you are looking for?

[graceful valve]

this happen in a lot of places, until i enter a fight (against wild or trainer pokemon) i can´t clearly see the map. As you can see, i am even on the Safari, so it isn´t a BIIIIIG problem, but i encountered it REALLY annoying against the safari because i constantly need to find grass, so i can fight a pokemon and then see the map, there is a way to solve it?
version is 6.0.4 if im correct

[jade pelican]

mr Pie, you could try backing up your game, then deleting the battlers folder

[worldly urchin]

No, they were still using the custom sprites from custombasesprites until I deleted it, now they're slowly updating as I encounter them.

[jade pelican]

i just tried it with a backup

and it seemed to get rid of the other sprites

if that's what you want to do

and just have the defaults

[blazing python]

can you show me what is the sprite you are expecting for one of them?

[jade pelican]

anyway good luck

ill leave megaman to help because this isn't my forté

[blazing python]

did you update your game from an old version to the newest? or installed brand new?

[graceful valve]

i install it everything from here the other day

but even doing it appear a message that said that i needed to update the version

[blazing python]

yeah you need to reinstall in a new folder and try again

Use these instructions -> #tech-support message

[graceful valve]

i imagine i can copypaste my save right?

[blazing python]

it will keep your save file, you dont need to move anything

[graceful valve]

ogey

💖

[blazing python]

yeah just make sure you install in a new folder like on your desktop. The launcher you are using has been really buggy and not downloading/updating properly

[worldly urchin]

Using Drowzee for example, if I do nothing it uses a custom sprite (left), located at Graphics\CustomBattlers\customBaseSprites\96j.png, instead of the default sprite (right), located at Graphics\Battlers\96\96.png.
What I want to do is have it use the default sprite for all base (unfused) pokemon.

[blazing python]

So what was wrong with the removing the customBaseSprites? Just that it took a little bit to readjust? Seems like that is the "easiest" option to do that right now. You would need a script or move them manually from Battlers to customBaseSprites

[worldly urchin]

Yeah, that about sums it up. Takes a while (seconds or minutes) for each individual sprite to stop showing up as a blank.

[buoyant star]

how do i fix this?

[blazing python]

yeah this game by default works the reverse way. If there are custom sprites it will prioritize that over the base sprite

[blazing python]

read our android guide, it has a fix for this

[buoyant star]

where can i find this guide?

[worldly urchin]

I suppose that makes sense given the nature of the game. Alright, thanks for the help. And for showing me the pokedex sprite switcher, I've already swapped a few of my party over to some sprites I like better.

[blazing python]

Type Android or Mobile in this chat

[buoyant star]

is it this one?

[blazing python]

that one works as well. First page it says Android: Click Here. That will take you to it

[buoyant star]

okay thankss

[blazing python]

On Joiplay you long tap on the game icon and then tap optimize maps.

[buoyant star]

if i do this it wont allow me to optimize it

[blazing python]

it doesn't give you the option?

[buoyant star]

wait i just restarted the app now it can convert it

does ths take long?

[blazing python]

I think it just depends on your device

but no one has mentioned it takes a long time

I don't have an android so I never done it

[buoyant star]

it changed but its still broken

[blazing python]

are you using the exact versions of the plug ins in the guide?

if you use different versions of it, it doesn't work correctly

[jaunty root]

for reference: Windows, Laptop, Using launcher "application" from #downloads

Issue: everytime i press "Play" it just closes the Launcher and re-opens it to the same page, im literally unable to launch the game using the launcher.

[buoyant star]

let me check

[blazing python]

Launcher is really buggy and broken for a lot of ppl. we recommend people to install the game without the launcher. Instructions here if you need -> #tech-support message

[buoyant star]

im using the 1.20.52 rpgm version should i change it?

to version 1.20.41?

[jaunty root]

i think i experienced an error

on step 4/step 5

can i DM you it?

ill explain in DMs why

@blazing python

[red arch]

Does anyone know how to solve this error? It appears only when I try to enter/exit Pallet Town. I already tried to optimize maps but it crashes halfway through

[sand frost]

Hello I have a question how do I fix this

[hearty adder]

Hey, I have the latest version installed on my PC and followed the steps to fully install the joiplay version on my phone, but it seems to be an older version? No oricori or the quest attached and no mysterious stone in mt moon? Any idea where I went wrong? I'm on Android.

[turbid terrace]

Hey @hearty adder! 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 and glitchy.

[hushed laurel]

Hi I was trying to download this game on windows and when I double clicked the Install or update file it brought me to this

[hearty adder]

do you have winrar or 7zip installed on your comp?

Only downloads as a compressed file that you need to extract.

[hushed laurel]

I have 7zip and it’s still giving me the error

[hearty adder]

try downloading winrar and giving it another go x

[maiden holly]

when i install the game this happens??

[hearty adder]

download winrar and try again x

[maiden holly]

is there supposed to be more in here?

[hushed laurel]

how do you do it in winrar?

[maiden holly]

wait i didnt even have the installer

omg

[sterile pivot]

yo fellas i need some backup. i downloaded infinite fusion with the thing in downloads and i dont know what to do now any help apreciated

do i need to install winrar?

nevermind fella

[maiden holly]

im really bad with github where do i download the file

instead of doing all 4 indivisually

[wheat plume]

Today I updated to version 6 from version 5. Now whenever I open the game, some pokemon have random alt sprites, and the sprites load much slower than before. It takes like 5 seconds to switch my PC boxes. I am not downloading sprites live, I have all the sprites already downloaded in the folders. How do I fix the slow loading times and the random alternate sprite switching?

[blazing python]

i finally got it working! but yeah, its pretty bad

1. The performance of the Game **largely **depend on your pc and internet. Most Laptops are **struggling **because of the 6.x update. Old computers struggle too.
2. If your game is in a OneDrive folder, turn it off. This game lags hard with OneDrive.
3. Best way to reduce lag is downloading sprites yourself. The more sprites you have, the less it needs to connect to the internet to download them.

• The optimized version of the game is "game-preloaded" but this requires you to download **ALL **the sprites from the pinned instructions on the top right of the tech support channel. Click the Shortcut -> #tech-support message

4. If the game is still slow after using game-preloaded, you need to make computer upgrades.

[wheat plume]

I have already downloaded all the sprites, and I actually have a pretty good desktop computer. It's not in a onedrive. All the sprties were loading with no lag before the update.

[blazing python]

6.x requires more processing power. If you have all the sprites use game-preloaded since that is the optimized version

[hearty adder]

If you updated but didn't recopy paste the sprites they would have gone back to default

simply copy paste the full spritess pack into your main game folder and it should work fine again

[blazing python]

The new game update changed the logic with default sprites, so that’s why he is seeing different default sprites compared to the prior version

[hearty adder]

More of a manually select each sprite from the pokedex in game thing then?

@blazing python any recomendations for Joiplay settings btw? Reinstalling all now

[blazing python]

Yeah 6.x also reset whatever default sprite you selected for a Pokemon. So you’d have to change them back from the Pokédex

[blazing python]

I linked the android guide a couple of messages up. The plug-ins we selected are the ones that work for this game.

[hearty adder]

yeah no issue with it working, was just wondering if you had any personal preferences settings wise for JOIPLAY app

[blazing python]

No, I don’t actually have an android but I worked with the people that got the android guide working. They didn’t change any other settings on JoiPlay

[frosty jungle]

Black screen just after intro and before the new game tab...😭😭

[turbid terrace]

Hey @frosty jungle! 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.

As the bot says, just wait it out. Depends on your device

Also if you didn’t follow our Android guide, you should make sure you are using the correct versions of the plugins

@jaunty root small amount of users get that error. Can you try this version of the installer with a certificate fix : #tech-support message

[lean nebula]

Please help.

[blazing python]

Type Android in chat

[lean nebula]

Android.

[turbid terrace]

Hey @lean nebula! 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 and glitchy.

[blazing python]

Use the shortcut above to follow our android guide. You HAVE to use the exact plugin versions for the game or it won't work

[lean nebula]

Uhhh ok.

[wheat plume]

Did that just now, the lag is still there.

[hearty adder]

After going through and changing them back from the Pokédex?

Did a full pre-loaded start etc?

[wheat plume]

I changed some of the sprites from the Pokedex to a preferred alt sprite and it stays on that sprite instead of switching to others, but the game still lags when trying to load sprites. I merged the sprite pack Custombattlers folder with the one in the game files and booted up the game to overwrite existing like I would if I were installing a new sprite pack. Unless that's not what you meant?

[blazing python]

I linked the instructions to you earlier. You sound like you are using the custom sprite pack, not the preloaded sprites

you also need to open up game-preloaded not game.exe to play the game if you are having performance issues

[maiden holly]

:,<

what do

[blazing python]

I gave you the intructions for what to do earlier and you chose to still use the launcher lol

[maiden holly]

i thought i figured it out lol

[blazing python]

as I mentioned prior, don't use the launcher. It is broken

[maiden holly]

no data for me

[blazing python]

ignore the bottom. If you have an error it would be above this

[maiden holly]

it gave me an error tho-

[blazing python]

it is a bug in the installer referncing an old file not used anymore

[maiden holly]

sooo what do i do about it

[blazing python]

nothing as I said

[maiden holly]

but

how do i install the game if it wont let me

i never got the files

[blazing python]

The first message I replied with I said if you have an error, it would be above what you showed in the picture

show the whole black window for me to help

[maiden holly]

oh

[blazing python]

unexpected disconnect

It means your internet is not stable and disconnected while downloading

keep trying until it works

[maiden holly]

oh dang

lemme retry

my internet is terrible

but i connected to by phone's hotspot and its a lot quicker so lets hope it downloads

[turbid terrace]

[blazing python]

performance for the game will be bad too if that is the case. the game requires internet connection to play

[maiden holly]

i have internet

its just

bad

[blazing python]

yeah while playing you will be using the internet to download sprites as you encounter pokemon

[tender marsh]

When I try to update the game it says that access to the install path is denied. I'm running it as admin and that still doesnt help

[blazing python]

so just letting you know it will affect performance

[maiden holly]

okey

[blazing python]

it is best to show the error so I can troubleshoot it

if it is an install path issue, we recommend installing on the C drive on your desktop

[tender marsh]

okay

[blazing python]

the batch file has issues installing on paths with less permissions. The game might experience the same as well since it needs to create folders for the sprites it downloads

[tender marsh]

How do I change the install folder? It's trying to install to the appdata\roaming folder rather than a program files one

but anyway this is my error message

[maiden holly]

okey this shouldnt happen

but I GOT IT TO WORK YAYA

[tender marsh]

(also after it fails it wont let me launch the launcher again without a reinstall)

[maiden holly]

how do i fix this

[blazing python]

Launcher is really buggy and broken for a lot of ppl. we recommend people to install the game without the launcher. Instructions here if you need -> #tech-support message

[blazing python]

You need to reset your sprite pull (you have to be connected to the internet):

1. Turn off Download Sprites option in setting inside the game. Like where your game volume is. This is the 4th option
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.

I would recommend after doing this save your game, completely close the game and reopen and try again.

this is an issue of slow internet as well. Timing out to download sprites

[maiden holly]

thanks! there is like a 2 second buffer for every new sprite but its better than last time

is there a way to turn off the annoying noise it makes when you run into a wall

nvm i found it in the files im gonna make it silent

didnt work

[blazing python]

Yup music files arent something you can change easily in this game

[maiden holly]

i cant interact with anything without that stupid noise

[gusty radish]

hello, I dont know if this issue has been discussed before, but my launcher is not working

is there any other way to open the game?

[blazing python]

Launcher is really buggy and broken for a lot of ppl. we recommend people to install the game without the launcher. Instructions here if you need -> #tech-support message

[gusty radish]

ok thank you

re-install it from scratch basically?

[blazing python]

Yes using the alt installer and not the launcher.

If you have a save file it doesn’t touch or reset that

[gusty radish]

ok alright thank you for your time

one more thing sorry

do I have to do this every time? I dont mind Im just asking

or can I just copy paste the sprites or something next time like directly into the folder

[late bane]

once you manually added the sprites they are added. they dont delete themselves when the game is closed

[blazing python]

Whenever there is a new update to the game just rerun the install or update batch file and it will update the game for you

[exotic vale]

um why does my game take 5 mins to load every time i unfuse a pokemon?

[blazing python]

You can leave a comment on the bug to mention it is still happening but seems like no workaround/fix yet

[mint fjord]

hello just wondering if theres any benefits to preloaded sprites over dynamic other than performance boost on some set ups

are their like sprites in the packs you cant find on dynamic or are they all the same

[trim fox]

All the same, only way to get different sprites would be looking at the recent ones in #sprite-gallery

[mint fjord]

for sure, ty guess ill just jump in and see if my pc can hang

[sturdy arrow]

heyy, sorry if i'm missing something but is there a reason i can't see a lot of the important stuff sections' channels on laptop? fusion-faq & spriter's agreement etc. are all there on phone but i only see announcement, downloads, + become a staff helper on comp

@blazing python Good evening, Megaman. About that bug I was dealing with where the game crashes in the hall of fame after beating elite four... Issue is resolved. I ended up just deleting the Graphics>Animations;Characters;Animations;Transitions;Windowskins folders and redownloaded them, after trying to manually replace jotaro with the original trainer icons didn't work. I saw that immediately after that screenshot I sent you, there is indeed a fuller graphic of the trainer that pops up, and i'm thinking there either isn't a Jotaro version, or the Jotaro version isn't named correctly. Just a guess though, but just an FYI if anyone else has this issue, this is how I fixed it. Jotaro character seems to not work for elite four

[blazing python]

Ok got it, that makes sense! Thank you for the update and info!

[fallow rain]

question.. I tried my best so far as I could

friend has this warning when trying to install the game

I added the .bat to the inbound rules of windows fire wall, and made sure the permission on the file is allowed. run as admin didnt work either

same warning

folder is on C: drive

[cyan cave]

Hello, I just started my second run on this game and I was having such a good time! But saddly yesterday when I tried to play it, I couldn´t find my new save file and got the message "a save file is corrupt or incompatible with this game". When I played the first time I played the preloaded version and now i was playing the dynamic one. Can someone help me?

[frosty jungle]

My screen is all black
...

....anyone..??

[verbal timber]

you are sad outta luck until an update for phobile comes out, that issue was fixed in v6.0.3 and phobile is stuck on v6.0.4 [mega don't say you have a link to update it, as the link in the pins only leads to v6.0.2]

[verbal timber]

your save is lost sadly

there's nothing we can do about that

unless it is still there in the preloaded application

your best bet is to stick with just one application when playing to avoid any possible issues, but there shouldn't have been any

since the only difference between the 2 is that preloaded just loads as much of the game as it can

[verbal timber]

they may want to delete any folders for IF and try a fresh install

have them follow that and hopefully there will be less issues

once it is installed they can move it somewhere else

if the issue persists, then your friend has some permission things they need to check

[cyan cave]

oh 😦 thank you for responding so quickly! I

[verbal timber]

check game-preloaded and see if your save is there, if it isn't; then yeah somehow when you swapped to the dynamic applicaiton, it borked your save

which shouldn't have happened

[near trail]

My fusion of breloom and drifloon attacked Giovanny's Kecgon with force palm and this attack doesn't worked. I want to know why. There were no reasons for it. Nor passive abilities, nor items, nor type immunitet. And it can't be miss cause forse palm has 100% accuracy and my pokemon hasn't debuffs. WTF?

Freaking normal dragon type pokemon has no damage from fighting attack

[verbal timber]

do you have some screenshots of this happening in game by any chance?

[near trail]

no 😦

[verbal timber]

then your best bet is if that wasn't the list fight against him [in his gym], try to grab screenshot the next time you fight and do the same thing to see if it happens again

[near trail]

I just underhanded what happened!

His ability is protean, Not color change

And it used ghost move

[verbal timber]

that'd do it

[sand frost]

Guys I have a question why can't I get in the secret garden

[exotic lake]

um how do i install on mac also is this the offcial site https://pokemoninfinitefusion.net/

[verbal timber]

no it is not

there is no "official" site

the place to get the game from is this discord

[verbal timber]

did you beat your rival on route 22 before fighting brock?
if no, that would be why

you have an issue with your internet

the first error is basically code gibberish for "the connection/download between your pc/internet and where the data is stored/hosted was interupted"

try a more stable connection first if possible

if you can't do anything about your connection, no vpn will help with that

that's something you'd need to bring up with your internet service provider

[verbal timber]

as for installing on mac...check the pinned comments, there should be a guide for mac somewhere in that mess

and there is...#tech-support message

just follow the mac video and you should be guchi

yeah it works now

there's no m in the naming screen but i'll live

[remote solstice]

I just installed the game and appears this

[lament oriole]

. Btw I'm running the 6.0.4 update

[verbal timber]

that error is unique, it only happens if you interact with the game window before the game has a chance to properly load up

run the game application and let it sit

once you see the intro cutscene, you can interact with the game window just fine

[verbal timber]

delete any files/folders for the game, and do a fresh clean install

[zinc nimbus]

Did something happen to the game? It's running slow any time it needs to render a fusion sprite, and my double Hypno sprite was reverted to the regular one, not the reference one I had set it as.

[mellow topaz]

how do i get the newest version and keep my savefile

[verbal timber]

known issue, no fix atm

[blazing python]

Are you using preloaded?

[blazing python]

Did you recently update to 6.x? The update reset what your default sprite was so you’d have to set them back using the Pokédex. Also 6.x needs more processing power so if you having performance issues you might need to run preloaded instead

[fallow rain]

we sadly did try a fresh install, or well.. fresh download, since we cant get the install.bat to run 😛 .. maybe I can try to lower their pc security for a short bit, but turning off the firewall itself did nothing

[blazing python]

Use the pinned instructions to install. Any installation method doesn’t touch your save file but if you are on version 5.1 or lower, your save is not compatible

[blazing python]

If you share the black window we can troubleshoot the error

[verbal timber]

#tech-support message

[fallow rain]

thats the thing, it wont even open the cmd prompt, we instantly get that one image I sent 😄

[whole quail]

yes because if i use the game.exe the game lag

[blazing palm]

I can't play the game. I got the .zip file, unpacked it and ran INSTALL_OR_UPDATE but where is the game now

[verbal timber]

run the install or update batch file

[blazing palm]

thats watch i did

*what

[verbal timber]

if it spits out an error, screenshot the error

[blazing palm]

ok lemme check

[verbal timber]

without that we can only guess as to what went wrong

[blazing python]

Only way to fix is having download sprites turned off from in game settings and restarting the game. It is a known bug but restarting the game always fixes it

[verbal timber]

there is one last stop gap, though I don't enjoy recommending it

[fallow rain]

which is? o:

[verbal timber]

#downloads message
follow this and click the mediafire link, then download the 6.0.2 phobile variant

that is the game files sans installer

[whole quail]

i do it but it does nothing

[fallow rain]

we can update through there to 6.0.4 and future ones?

[blazing python]

I rather they get the files from my tutorial that is 6.0.4 if you recommending that

[verbal timber]

mega i checked that guide, there is no 6.0.4

it only shows 6.0.2

someone was trying to update with that and they only got 6.0.2

[blazing python]

https://youtu.be/hOMllHDMb5A?si=O0QYVNYRikVcrI-f

This one has the google and mediafore for 6.0.4 with all the sprites

[verbal timber]

if that's the same one from the first pin, then yes, someone else tried that and it gave them 6.0.2

[blazing python]

No it isn’t in the video guides

Frogman said he doesn’t like sharing zips cause they can’t be trusted so I don’t provide my tutorials with all the files in them other than Mac and Steam Deck cause you need them all for them

[verbal timber]

you may want to edit your android guide to include that

[turbid terrace]

[verbal timber]

hm

[fallow rain]

we will give the link a try !

will keep you both updated once they reply 😄

[verbal timber]

then i dunno

[blazing python]

Then you might be missing sprites. What zip did you use to setup preloaded? Also which 2 Pokemon did you fuse for that one you are showing?

[blazing python]

Btw this error means your computer can’t handle the dynamic version of the game. You can only play using preloaded so you have to download all of the sprites to play

[carmine ravine]

i cant launch the game

[turbid terrace]

Hey @carmine ravine! Are you having trouble starting the game? Here are a few common errors you might be experiencing:

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.

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.

[verbal timber]

new lancher i take it

that is broken

delete any files pertaining to it

[carmine ravine]

?

ok

how?

[verbal timber]

same way you would any other files, since it isn't actually installed

drag the folder to your recycle bin and then empty it

but the new launcher has been broken for awhile

that's the only one with a play button

follow that instead after you delete the other stuff

[carmine ravine]

ok

when i go to extract here the 7zip thing doesnt show up

can i have help with that pls?

Is it possible to get this game to run natively on handheld emulator devices like the analog pocket? I'm really hoping to get this running on my RG nano, but I have no idea if that's possible

Everytime I put in my rivals name I keep getting this image if you know how to help PLEASE

In your game folder open SaveFile shortcut. This takes you to your save folder. Delete everything inside and try again.

[sterile pivot]

I’ll try and let you k ow what happens

Nope same thing

I think it’s only doing this for random

Nope it’s both everytime I skip intro

[blazing python]

The error is specifically complaining about your save. Marshal error is always related to bad data. Did you update your game from an old version or installed fresh in a new folder ?

[sterile pivot]

It’s not letting a me update that was my first thought to update it but it shows this

[blazing python]

You downloaded the game from the fake website. That is also probably why it is t working. Please delete those files and run a virus scan

This game does NOT have an official website it is fake

If you get the same pop up, click More Info and there will be an allow button. But make sure the files are from this discord

[sterile pivot]

k

thank you

Still getting the first issue

[blazing python]

And the SaveFile folder is blank? No files in it at all?

[sterile pivot]

Yes

I’m checking one more time

[raven meadow]

You should just have to make a file

It should be in C:

[sterile pivot]

K

[blazing python]

No the shortcut created by the game takes you to the save folder with or without a save file

[sterile pivot]

It works it just wanted me to reset it 500 times

[blazing python]

Yeah there is always complications from downloading the fake game

Fixes for the game won’t fix the issues from the fake version

[verbal timber]

mega, that can sometimes happen even if you download it from this discord

windows doesn't often like command prompts running on their own without your direction

[blazing python]

? His issue was the marshal save file issue. What command prompt are you referring to?

[verbal timber]

this pop up

it can crop up even if you download it from here

[blazing python]

Yeah that is what popped up after he tried reinstalling. His original issue is different which what I was referring to

[verbal timber]

fair

but its why i included it in the detailed picture explanation of the download

i'll have to redo it once frogman updates the zip file to account for the data/species.zip error being gone

[blazing python]

This info is also in our pinned messages. No harm in using your image but it is the same info

I am hoping he updates the link. The installer is already fixed, he just needs to update his message

[verbal timber]

likely waiting for the playtest of modern mode to be done, and the last few new mons to get added in

that way he can push it all out at once

rather than do a segmented release

[blazing python]

Oh it doesn’t require a release

It is just the zip file he has in #downloads message

HungryPickle already removed the line causing the issue. So it is just replacing the zip in the message, but it doesn’t require a new release

[verbal timber]

you know what I mean; he might be waiting to replace the message once the other stuff is done

[blazing python]

Yeah that could be the case. Just release everything at once like you said. Modern mode release is going to be big since a lot ppl waiting on that

[sullen night]

is the video posted on Nov 22, the most up to date way to download the game on mac?

[blazing python]

These are our recommend video guides: #tech-support message

All this info is in our pinned messages

[sullen night]

okay thank you

[blazing python]

?tag install

[pearl magnet]

If you have trouble downloading/installing the game on windows/mac/steamdeck/mobile, you can use the guides in this message to guide you through the process #tech-support message

[blazing python]

Nice this works now

[sullen night]

the homebrew download in the tutorial looks nothing like what is on my screen, what should i do

[blazing python]

Can you show what you are seeing? I would need more info to help

[blazing python]

Oh because your Mac never had Xcode and the command line tools installed so it is installing it for you

[sullen night]

so i should just continue waiting?

[blazing python]

Yeah Xcode and the tools are pretty big from what I remember but they are required so yes you should wait

[sullen night]

okay now it looks like its working

[blazing python]

When I google it, Xcode is about 12 gbs so yeah it will go through it after, but Xcode is standard on Macs if you using anything dev/command line related

[sullen night]

now its saying that the command brew cannot be found

[blazing python]

Did you input the line under next steps in your terminal?

[sullen night]

yes

[blazing python]

And you restarted your terminal by fully closing it and reopening?

[sullen night]

yeah

[blazing python]

Not clicking the X button to close it right?

[sullen night]

should i redo the process again

[blazing python]

You might need to restart your Mac. It installed homebrew and it might take a restart for your computer to recognize it was installed

[sullen night]

okay

[coarse tapir]

i need help i got the physFS : no error

when i try to launch the game

[blazing python]

That means your computer can’t handle the dynamic version of the game. You can only play preloaded

Use these instructions to setup preloaded -> #tech-support message

[sullen night]

still saying the same thing sadly even after i restarted my mac

should i just redo the homebrew steps again?

[blazing python]

Macs are pretty bad with environment changes. You downloaded homebrew but it doesn’t recognize it.

Run this to uninstall homebrew

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/uninstall.sh)"

[karmic willow]

can i get help

i dont understand what to do to fix this

[blazing python]

• Open game or game-default instead
• If you want to play game-preloaded, you need to install all of the sprites. This is mentioned in the first post in #downloads message
• The guides to do this are mentioned in that post as well

[blazing python]

After running the uninstall, reinstall again

[sullen night]

when i close the terminal do i click the red x or no?

[twilit beacon]

How do I fix this

[blazing python]

No close it the way I do in the video. Clicking the word Terminal from the top left and clicking close/exit

[blazing python]

Is this your first time opening the game?

[twilit beacon]

No I downloaded it yesterday and played it with no problems

[blazing python]

Did you download the game from a website or the zip file here?

[sullen night]

oh in the video it looks like you just closed it by clicking the x in the top left

[twilit beacon]

GitHub

[blazing python]

Interesting cause this error message is saying your SaveFile folder had a file there that is not compatible

Can you show the files in your save folder?

[blazing python]

Ah I normally don’t do it that way but did it work?

[sullen night]

it didnt work. but this time instead of closing the terminal and trying to install wineskin, i left the terminal open and it is downloading

[blazing python]

Ok great, at least it is working now. There is a way to make brew findable throughout your computer I was going to suggest after but if it is working you don’t need it

[blazing python]

I was asking where your save file is. You are using the launcher right? Open the launcher and click the settings button on the top right. There is a button to open save folder

[compact fractal]

Would it be possible to have someone assist in the vc to install the game?

[twilit beacon]

Ok this is what it looks like

[blazing python]

Did you try using our video guides yet?

?tag install

[pearl magnet]

If you have trouble downloading/installing the game on windows/mac/steamdeck/mobile, you can use the guides in this message to guide you through the process #tech-support message

[compact fractal]

Video guides?

Huh I’ll try that now thank you

[blazing python]

Yup the bot above your message has the bubble you can press to take you to them

[compact fractal]

I had an older version so I deleted it off my laptop when I tried installing again it keeps giving me error

[blazing python]

Yeah if you get an error on the black window that opens to install you can post that here for us to help solve the error

[sullen night]

instead of choosing a specific file to put into the pokemon infinite fusion wineskin launcher, i put them all and now it wont run, how do i take those files out

[twilit beacon]

I’m just gonna redownload it

[sullen night]

wait nevermind it might be loading

it loaded i lied

[blazing python]

Usually deleting those 2 files will solve the error. For some reason it says your save is not compatible

[twilit beacon]

👍

[sullen night]

im stuck on a loading screen

[twilit beacon]

Worked

[blazing python]

Press Enter

[karmic willow]

hello

i need more help

i installed the entire thing with all the sprites yet

[blazing python]

Open it again 1 more time. You had the issue where dynamic can't open on your machine

[karmic willow]

may you ellaborate on how i open it again

[blazing python]

because of that, you need to open preloaded 2 times. 1 time to sort the sprites and fix the error, and 2nd time will open

[karmic willow]

please

o

ok

thank you

[blazing python]

assuming you added the sprites correctly

[karmic willow]

copy paste the graphics folder right?

[blazing python]

On top of the InfiniteFusion folder

[karmic willow]

ye

[blazing python]

yeah

[karmic willow]

ok

lets see

i reopened

it

and thank you for the vid helped alot

IT WORKED

[blazing python]

Nice! there you go!

[karmic willow]

thank you so much

[blazing python]

No prob, have fun!

[karmic willow]

thank you

have a great day and thanks again

:))

[blazing python]

Oh 1 more thing, make sure when you start a new game to select No when it asks if you want to Download Sprites over the internet. Since you on preloaded, that option should be turned off

[karmic willow]

k

[main prairie]

Help been trying for hours too fix this😭

[waxen rock]

hi not sure if i did something wrong, but i just downloaded the game. im currently on the home screen, and i can open the keybindings, but no matter what i do i cant get the game to start. im on windows

[verbal timber]

close the keybinds screen, and try pressing enter

[dawn slate]

i downloaded and the sprite pack and added the custom battlers to the the place it needed but what do i do with the other folder. do i just place it in there.

[waxen rock]

nothin

[main prairie]

Probably wanna specify I can't get past the start cutscenes before this pops up

[verbal timber]

uh

[verbal timber]

hm

[verbal timber]

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-nothing-magic-conch-magic-concha-gif-5340147

[verbal timber]

i think you need the andr0id fix from the first pinned comment

follow that guide and that "should" fix it

no guarantees

[blazing python]

this is because you are not using the plugins we specify in our android guide

[verbal timber]

im not super familiar with phobile stuff

[main prairie]

Honestly could not find the guide 😅

[blazing python]

?tag install

[pearl magnet]

If you have trouble downloading/installing the game on windows/mac/steamdeck/mobile, you can use the guides in this message to guide you through the process #tech-support message

[blazing python]

Bot has a shortcut to it ^^ also the 1st post in #downloads message has the link to the installation guides

[blazing python]

if your Keybinding got messed up, Press F1 and see what is under the C button.

Whatever is next to the Confirm key is what you can type on the screen to let you through. Ex: Space, Return, C

[cerulean lantern]

I had the same error. Using a earlier Version of Joiplay and rpgmakerplugin fixed it for me

[blazing python]

Yeah we specify in our guide which versions to use. We had 5 people test different versions and provided the ones that work for the game

[waxen rock]

i was able to hit enter guess i cant have it full screen 😅

[blazing python]

options menu has the different screen sizes you can set it to

[main prairie]

So it's working but new error the keyboard is inverted only when doing my name🤣🤣

[waxen rock]

guess cant make it full screen until you do that lol. makes sense guess it bugged out making it full screen before changing the setting in game

[blazing python]

that is a joiplay issue. Not sure about that since this game isn't developed for Android, so I don't have more info on how to do stuff for Joiplay.

[waxen rock]

thanks for the help! glad to be finally playing this

[blazing python]

In an old thread, I found someone that said, if you change the text entry to cursor instead of keyboard , it will fix your problem. This is inside the game options in the game. The thread is one year old, so not sure if it still applies.

[hearty frost]

I brought up the launcher, but whenever I click Play, the launcher reopens. Help?

[blazing python]

Launcher is really buggy and broken for a lot of ppl. we recommend people to install the game without the launcher. Instructions here if you need -> #tech-support message

[cerulean lantern]

Where to put the others folder into?

Custombattlers too?

[blazing python]

You only move custom battlers into your graphics folder where your game is

[fair sage]

i downloaded the launcher but the game is still version 5.3.0.7
how do i download the patch to update to version 6?

[blazing python]

Those other folders and files you see there in your screenshot don’t matter

[cerulean lantern]

Ok ty

[blazing python]

That means the installation failed

If you look up a couple messages, I recommend not to use the launcher also

[winged radish]

i'm trying to download wineskin on my mac rn and it says "command not found: brew", could someone help plz?

[main prairie]

Got a new problem on joiplay🤣🤣🤣

[fair sage]

all im seeing is files for the launcher

[blazing python]

The android guide addresses this also

[fair sage]

where do i find the file for the game

[blazing python]

Run this in terminal

export PATH="/opt/homebrew/bin:$PATH"

[winged radish]

in a new terminal right?

[blazing python]

Any is fine

[winged radish]

alright

[blazing python]

Yeah, the installation failed That’s why lol

[winged radish]

nothing happened

[blazing python]

Running that command, just lets you use homebrew through your Mac. Nothing else will happen when you enter that and press enter. Reopen terminal and run the command you couldn’t run.

[winged radish]

oh alr

[hollow totem]

What can i do with the error 403 in the launcher???

[blazing python]

Launcher is really buggy and broken for a lot of ppl. we recommend people to install the game without the launcher. Instructions here if you need -> #tech-support message

[hollow totem]

ok

[paper tulip]

I would just like to say the bot instruuctions for changing player sprites is wrong... it took me hours to find the proper directory to change things

[blazing python]

What is wrong with it?

[fast bolt]

It works for other people. I direct them to ask the bot all the time and nobody has ever said they had a problem with it.

[paper tulip]

it states "for the overworld: in the Graphics/Character folder" when I requuired to change things in "Graphics/Characters/players"

idk I apparantly had a stroke trying to figure this out

took longer than i would have liked

[blazing python]

Oh ok, so just 1 folder difference.

[paper tulip]

yeah, it was weird cuz i had to replace files in the characters folder as well and it wasnt working so i spent a bunch of time reinstalling and stuff just to stumble around and find that out. oh well lol

[blazing python]

<@&306953740651462656> Looks like the Trainer Sprites bot message is a little off. Can you update it or where do I go to ask for bot updates?

Link to Message for Reference -> #ask-a-bot message

It currently says

for the boy sprites:
for the overworld: in the Graphics/Character folder;

for the girl sprites:
for the overworld: in the Graphics/Character folder;

The folder should actually be Graphics/Character/players

[blazing python]

I am glad at least you told us about it! I do see this bot get referenced all the time and assumed it was correct cause no one ever brought up an issue

[paper tulip]

glad i could help!

[fast bolt]

It's only Milian and Kiwi that can change the bot

[blazing python]

Ah ok got it, I will leave it up for a bit then ask again later

[little current]

hello, there you go, I have a problem with my "game preloaded" when I launch it, it starts normally, the cutscene, and when I arrive at the main menu, my game displays an error message and closes how I Rules, worries?

[fast bolt]

Preloaded needs the sprites in the pinned message here in order to work

NOT the pack in #downloads

[little current]

Ah ?

Where ?

[blazing python]

the 1st post in #downloads message explains this as well at the pins in this channel

[little current]

Okay thank's

[raw orbit]

as I've said before

we are not the ones who deal with the bots

bother kiwi

[blazing python]

@pearl fern Would you mind making a small change to the Trainer Sprite bot?

[pearl fern]

yis i can update it, make a #discord-suggestions !

[trim fox]

I thought the players folder was just where the original sprites were kept?

[winged radish]

its working now, i am just wondering, how can i change the controls? (mac)

[blazing python]

Press option + F1

[winged radish]

alr

all good

thanks so much

[blazing python]

In case you need cause it is kinda confusing

we have it labeled what each represent

[winged radish]

ah alr

[blazing python]

I just tested it and it only worked when I put the file in Graphics/Characters/players

when I overrode the one in Graphics/Characters it didn't change it

[trim fox]

When I did it back in 5.2 it was the opposite :0 I'm glad it was changed though

[blazing python]

yeah im actually seeing all instructions even in the sprite channels mentioning to change the one in Graphics/Characters. I wonder if it is a 6.x change or maybe even a bug? not sure

I tried a couple more bike sprites and it is only taking the change in Graphics/Characters/players

[trim fox]

So weird

[tacit dew]

How to get pre load sprites?

[weak blaze]

I need help, my launcher just updated to the last version. (it says 1.6.4) and when I want to open the game, the screen slightly flash and nothing happen. I tried the "repair game" option, but it doesn't work.
Can someone help before I try to uninstall/install? It kinda take time to download
thanks!

[fast bolt]

The launcher is broken and "repair game" breaks it more

[late bane]

use the launcher not installer

[fast bolt]

Wrong way around

The good one is called "Alternate Installer" in #downloads

[weak blaze]

Oh, good to know

thanks

[late bane]

my bad its kinda hard to remember which is wich anymore

[narrow viper]

Hey, I'm trying to update the game to 6.0 on my Mac, but using Wineskin Winery, the dropdown menu doesn't display WS11WineX64Bit3.6.0_D3DMetal as an option. These are the only ones that show up.

[blazing python]

You can try the top one since that is the best option your Mac can run

[rigid pawn]

Anyone around to help with an uncommon iussue?

[blazing python]

Sure

[rigid pawn]

Do you know how to access debug mode?

[blazing python]

I do

[rigid pawn]

I am trying to do something called Soullink with friends.

[blazing python]

I know what it is but I don’t think it is an option we provide in game

Same as nuzlocke. You can play it with your own rules, but the game doesn’t provide it

[rigid pawn]

What do you mean?

[blazing python]

The game doesn’t have those mods coded in. It is just people making their rules on their own and playing that way

[rigid pawn]

Okay, so I was able to get it pulled up and get New Game + you have to get o the first pokemon center and talk to the man in black

[austere knot]

Hey I was downloading the game for the first time using a video i saw
https://youtu.be/H1mcxGIgEb8?si=QcHxdJb1xMZhFZOP

The version i have from the link in his description, well game looks all fine but i just wanna check if its the dynamic version that downloads sprites as they're made? Or if its one i need to download the sprite pack for
https://www.mediafire.com/folder/tpubi4vri32ha/Infinite_Fusion_download_links

[zinc mural]

i need help

what does this mean???

[blazing python]

By default the game is dynamic

[austere knot]

ah thank you 🙌

[blazing python]

I think this is your anti virus blocking it

[zinc mural]

where do i check my anti virus???

[blazing python]

Depends which you have but you’d have to research it. something on your machine is blocking it

[zinc mural]

ill look it up

@blazing python do you have "Pc Matic Super Shield" on?

[blazing python]

I don’t have whatever that is

[zinc mural]

oof

[blazing python]

Looks like that is some sort of anti virus

[zinc mural]

yea i'll try to enable it

disable*

[blazing python]

That is probably blocking it

Yeah

[zinc mural]

alrigt thank you!!!

WE GOT IT BOYSSSS

[graceful valve]

hellouu! 2 errors yeayy xD

[graceful valve]

full story: im trying to solve this problem

[blazing python]

Ignore the species.zip but seems like something interrupted the download for that file. Have you tried rerunning it?

[graceful valve]

yeah

[blazing python]

Delete the audio folder and the .git folder and try again

[graceful valve]

.gitignore?

[blazing python]

No it should be .git

If you don’t see it, it is a hidden folder you need to enable

im trying again

just one error left aparently

[blazing python]

Nope you are good

All the files are installed successfully

[graceful valve]

then i must be doing something wrong

[errant root]

Hello, good evening, I have a problem trying to open the game from my Android in Joyplay. First I got the streets with bad sprits, then I go to the game icon press it and go to the part that says "optimize maps" but when I am in the part 257 the app closes, then I'm going to open the game again but I get the message below, I go again and optimize the maps but when I go to part 257 the app closes again and everything repeats

[turbid terrace]

Hey @errant root! 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 and glitchy.

The pinned message in https://discord.com/channels/302153478556352513/308392115338084360 has the updated Android Guide. If you need a shortcut use this -> #tech-support message

Nothing can likely be done about issues experienced on mobile, unfortunately, but you must use the plugin versions listed in the guide or else it won't work at all.

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

[blazing python]

Hopefully your anti virus not blocking the game too.

[graceful valve]

HAHAHA oh shit, that bad? XD

My god

[blazing python]

Read the bot message to take you to the Android guide. This error happens when you don’t install the specific version of the plugins

[graceful valve]

Windows defender allowing partially the game

That's the last thing i needed

[blazing python]

You have like 10 anti virus running lol

[graceful valve]

Maybe i should just search pok. Inf. Fusion maps and don't bother any more with this

[blazing python]

Allow the InfiniteFusion folder in general

[zealous turtle]

How can I fix this issue?

[spiral spruce]

that is a very old version

download the newest

[blazing python]

?tag install

[pearl magnet]

If you have trouble downloading/installing the game on windows/mac/steamdeck/mobile, you can use the guides in this message to guide you through the process #tech-support message

My gamepad works in-game but is unresponsive on the key bindings screen

[trim fox]

In that case you'll have to use a mapping program like JoyToKey

[vague quarry]

This error pops up when trying to play on joiplay, does anyone know how to fix it?

[blazing python]

Seems like incomplete files. You should use our Android guide especially if you aren’t using the plugin versions we specify

[vague quarry]

I'll go back and check, but I swear I used the exact versions

[blazing python]

This has to do more with the game files

[vague quarry]

Ohh

Ok

[snow ruin]

can someone help me

[blazing python]

Try again. Says unexpected disconnect. Means your internet isn’t stable and stopped the download

[blazing python]

In case you need http://tinyurl.com/pifandroid

[snow ruin]

i am on a laptop

[blazing python]

I wasn’t talking to you about Android, I was replying to Zabi

[trim perch]

I know this might be a silly thing to ask but why does windows say Pokemon infinite fusions might not be safe?

[snow ruin]

sorry

[blazing python]

Because the devs aren’t verified publishers for windows

And the software is using batch files

[trim perch]

Oh

Thanks wanted to know for awhile

.

[blazing python]

Yeah even my sprite importer tool says it is suspicious when I developed it for the sprites

[trim perch]

So windows just says stuff is "not safe" or "cant be safe" if its not a windows verfied publisher

[blazing python]

And because the files are batch files

[snow ruin]

what if they write error; remote origin already exists

[blazing python]

Ignore that, that doesn’t mean anything

Also ignore anything about species.zip missing

[trim perch]

yeah

[vague quarry]

I think I may have fixed it

[snow ruin]

it says system cannot find specified data

[blazing python]

Yup I mentioned above, ignore that

[snow ruin]

what about

system can not find file specified

[blazing python]

Ignore that

This is what you will see when it is done. The squared bracket is when you know it is done and good. Ignore everything in the X

[lethal raven]

Custom sprites are not showing up in game for some pokemon even though the sprite exists in the index folders. Specifically Chansey/Lucario in this case,

[blazing python]

What is the path you are specifically looking at?

[molten shadow]

can someone help me download game?

[turbid terrace]

Hey @molten shadow! Are you 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 .bat file. Be mindful that the game takes a few minutes to load, don't touch the black window before it does!

[blazing python]

?tag install

[pearl magnet]

If you have trouble downloading/installing the game on windows/mac/steamdeck/mobile, you can use the guides in this message to guide you through the process #tech-support message

[lethal raven]

I was looking in "Graphics/CustomBattlers/indexed/113/" specifically.

[blazing python]

And the png name?

[molten shadow]

?tag install

[pearl magnet]

If you have trouble downloading/installing the game on windows/mac/steamdeck/mobile, you can use the guides in this message to guide you through the process #tech-support message

[molten shadow]

the only 2 options in the folder are INSTALL_OR_UPDATE and REQUIRED_BY_INSTALLER_UPDATER

[lethal raven]

The filename is "113.296.png" that it should be using.

[blazing python]

Yup

[wicked gyro]

Cant play with randomizer mode, any solution ?

[turbid terrace]

Hey @wicked gyro! Do you have questions about Randomized mode? Find more info about it and its various settings on the Wiki: https://infinitefusion.fandom.com/wiki/Randomized_Mode
Note: You need to have an existing save file before the game lets you restart in Randomized mode!

[lethal raven]

So "Graphics/CustomBattlers/indexed/113/113.296.png"

[molten shadow]

so what should i click

[blazing python]

Follow our guides -> #tech-support message

[lethal raven]

It exists, it is the correct size, and extension (lowercase), but it is not showing up in game for that particular pokemon fusion. This is just the default sprite from the update pack, not something I made.

[molten shadow]

k thanks

[blazing python]

Can I see in your Pokédex what you see?

[blazing python]

You have to turn off random trainers if you are in modern mode

[wicked gyro]

Alright thankss

[lethal raven]

Standby.

[molten shadow]

oh i had it i just didnt see on the black screen that it was downloading something, sorry 😅

[turbid terrace]

Hey @molten shadow! 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.
