[rigid silo]

Check our pins, there are some potential fixes

[shadow roost]

I just had to update my drivers

[rigid silo]

Coolcool

Should probably add that to the pin as a potential fix for the disconnect i guess

[heady plaza]

really nobody know which option to turn off randomizer

i just want to play classic with my current file that i accidentally turn randomizer on

[rigid silo]

Check the update man in pokecenters. Maybe he has the option

[rigid silo]

Or the options menu

Just suggesting some things for you to check out. Which you could also think of

[heady plaza]

nope i dont see it

the update man is for sure not

[rigid silo]

Not with the update man?

Ah cool

[heady plaza]

oh

[heady plaza]

this one?

yea no

[rigid silo]

Maybe. Like I said just throwing some stuff out there. Im not sure where the option is myself. But im fairly sure it is possible.

[heady plaza]

damn but still thx

[dense gulch]

#tech-support message

Is the updatedSprites zip file the latest? Cus I just met a pokemon with a question mark.

[rigid silo]

That should not be possible. The game crashes before showing a questionmark when playing preloaded i think

Are you sure you are playing preloaded? Amd didnt launch dynamic?

And to answer your question directly, no i do not think so. Comparing de release of the sprite-pack with the preloaded pack update stamp.

Your safest bet for updated preloaded sprites is megamans installer.

That one for sure installs all the latest sprites.

But like I said, first make sure you are actually launching preloaded. Otherwise you do not need any sprite packs

[dense gulch]

Yeah, I played it on preloaded

[rigid silo]

Weird. Then try megamans installer. That has everything updated

[woeful thicket]

hello when i use the install or update thing nothing happens it tells me its good and i can press any key to close it but there is nothing that has changed

[spark oracle]

Hello,

Do I need to install auto gen if I'm installing preload sprite ? What is the purpose of Auto gen ?

[dense gulch]

does that mean I have to redownload everything?

[fast bolt]

Post a screenshot of the black window

[turbid terrace]

Hey @fast bolt! 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

[fast bolt]

Dammit bot. Didn't realize window triggered it...

[fast bolt]

The preloaded sprites contain everything. Autogen and custom. The pack in downloads only contains customs. There is no way to get just autogens.

You don't need to do anything with sprites if you have decent internet. The game will download the sprites as you play automatically.

[gray cypress]

I tried both of them and now it's working ayyy thank you so much

[rigid silo]

No. There should be an option for just sprites. if I recall correctly its part 2 of the guide on the github.

https://github.com/x-megaman/InfiniteFusionPreloaded/releases/

[woeful thicket]

I can't rn i have classes i will later

[hollow vine]

any assistance on this error?:/

[spark oracle]

Thanks

[rigid silo]

Did you extract the file before running it?

[hollow vine]

yes

[rigid silo]

Is it on desktop, and if so; is your desktop linked to onedrive?

Couple of thing as a suggestion to check:

Does a redownload help? Maybe corrupted installer files.

Check out the new installer megaman made, see if that works.
https://github.com/x-megaman/InfiniteFusionPreloaded/releases/

[hollow vine]

it is on desktop and no it is not linked to one drive

i will attempt this and let you know

[rigid silo]

If it still doesnt work I might have something up my sleeve. But its a last resort.

[hollow vine]

id like to avoid resetting my pc so io will try anything

[rigid silo]

Yeah okay, give me 1 sec. I'll get you set up

[hollow vine]

thanks i appreciate it

[rigid silo]

There you go -> #tech-support message
That video has our tech support version of the game. It has everything already pre-installed and portable.
We have personally confirmed that it works 100%. Just extract and play, nothing else needed.

extracting might take a long time, since its over 350k files. But it should work eventually.

[hollow vine]

thank you so much, if it doesn't work i apologize haha

[sterile pivot]

Yes bro change your gpu driver or buy computer

[hollow vine]

hey so i tried to open both the preloaded and game.exe and i got this, any ideas?

[sterile pivot]

That's not in the connection bro, that's in the Gpu driver because we're the same, I'm the same on my computer.

[sterile pivot]

have you tried reinstalling?

[rigid silo]

I'll do some more digging, but as I said. its a confirmed working tech support version of the game, so it seems to be some weird interaction on your pc rather than the game.

[sterile pivot]

Android phone

[turbid terrace]

Hey @sterile pivot! This game is not made for mobile! The only workaround is to install JoiPlay, but any performance issues, bugs, or issues with Android are not fixable. No dedicated mobile version of IF will be developed in the future.

An installation guide for Android can be found HERE.

[rigid silo]

He has a non-installer portable version of the game, our tech support version.

[sterile pivot]

Watch tutorial @hollow vine

[hollow vine]

its pc

[rigid silo]

As I said, I gave him our tech support version. No installer, so none of those listed tutorials will be relevant.

[sterile pivot]

Click here to watch the tutorial.

[sterile pivot]

Ah copy

[hollow vine]

Thank you, it used to work but then it stopped for some reason, I have no idea why, if it is pc side I'm stumped

[rigid silo]

Megaman will maybe know once he gets on. will prob be a couple of hours.

[sterile pivot]

that means there is nothing there I understand thanks.

[hollow vine]

thats fine I have the dentist anyways now, any help would definitely be appreciated

[rigid silo]

Do you mind me pinging you when/if I have an update?

[sterile pivot]

but on Android it's not like this.

you'll have to wait for one of our tech people to be online

[stable cosmos]

It’s 9am and the games already showing night😭

[verbal timber]

game time and real time don't match up

[stable cosmos]

Darn

[verbal timber]

i think 1 min real time is 1 hour game time

[ivory fjord]

i cant encount raicune

[blazing python]

you have to update to 6.0.5. Then afterwards go to the pokemon center. Talk to update man and select Fix game

[ivory fjord]

i all ready did it

and it didnt work

[blazing python]

Then you have the fake version. This was fixed in 6.0.3. Only fake copies of the game don’t have it

[ivory fjord]

can i somehow keep my save

[blazing python]

Yeah follow our guide here to reinstall: [Guide](#tech-support message)

[sturdy ivy]

Hi guys, when I try to install the game it stops after around 2 minutes with the following dialogue box.

[ivory fjord]

dm me the url

[blazing python]

Everything is in the link I sent you. Click where it says guide

[blazing python]

This means you got a network error trying to install the game.

[rigid silo]

Yo @blazing python,
Any clue on what can cause this error?
Happened to someone on the pre-packed version.

[sturdy ivy]

I haven't had any other network interruptions, and I've had the same error while connected to my wifi and tethered.

[rigid silo]

Cant seem to reproduce it myself.

[blazing python]

We have tips you can follow here but you need to look at your network: [Info](#tech-support message)

People unplug and plugin their modem to fix or switch from using their WiFi to their other WiFi network to fix

[rigid silo]

I will say, they were having some funky path errors before. So good chance that it is caused by some weird pc config stuff

[blazing python]

Did they try opening multiple copies of the game at once or something?

[rigid silo]

Not to my knowledge

[blazing python]

Or they could have onedrive syncing to that folder so it is trying to load the title screen while syncing back somewhere

[rigid silo]

Yeah tried confirming that, they said the game wasnt on a onedrive location.
this shit had me stumped

[blazing python]

Yeah I would need more info but the files 100% work so it something on their end for sure

[rigid silo]

[blazing python]

Are they even on windows? When I look up the error, it is mostly Linux users with this error

[rigid silo]

Tried confirming that as well, win10

[sturdy ivy]

I'm going to presume there's no manual install, it has to be done through a github pull?

[rigid silo]

Correct. the installer does the pull for you though

[blazing python]

Try this: Link

[rigid silo]

(technically you can manual it by just downloading the files from the github yourself)

[sturdy ivy]

tyvm, will try

[blazing python]

The link I gave is to get the zip file directly from the repo, but people with this error usually can’t even get it still

[sturdy ivy]

Crossing all my fingers.

[ivory fjord]

what do i do now

[rigid silo]

follow a guide

[blazing python]

Yeah I sent you the guide. But Double click on that first file.

Also I’m working on an update to the installer that if you get that disconnect error, I’m just gonna have them get from my google drive or something. I’ve tried every fix I could to solve network issues but it is purely on the user’s end

[rigid silo]

I wonder if those connects to the drive will also get dropped, but time will tell.

[blazing python]

So far it is just connecting to the GitHub is the prob. When I send my google drive files it works. I even tried rewriting the installer to just clone the repo vs the git commands we use now and it didn’t fix their issue

[sturdy ivy]

The download seemed to work fine. 🤷‍♀️

[ivory fjord]

when i click "install_or_update" when its done its does nothing

[blazing python]

it doesn't open a black window?

[blazing python]

you are one of the small few, nice!

[ivory fjord]

it opens the cmd

[blazing python]

yeah so let that finish running, then send a screenshot here. there is an error there

it is probably the early disconnect error

[ivory fjord]

the first one

i think

[rigid silo]

"no space left on device"
you need more storage to install

[ivory fjord]

yea

how much do i need

[blazing python]

up to 4gb

that is extreme case where you have all the sprites

less than 2gb for the base game

[rigid silo]

My brother in christ, did you just post your cheats to discord?

Nevermind, its fps chess. just recognised the icon

[frigid mural]

question

it says Updating files: 100% (15008/15008), done.
HEAD is now at 9fa5620 Merge branch 'main' of https://github.com/infinitefusion/infinitefusion-e18 into releases\

but it's not showing completed

is it still downloading?

oh well

[blazing python]

do you have a screenshot we can look at?

[frigid mural]

yup

one second

[blazing python]

it seems like it should be towards the end of the installation

[frigid mural]

oh

ok

the only consistant thing was it saying "20:56:19.324867 http.c:870 == Info: schannel: failed to decrypt data, need more data"

[blazing python]

that is the installer trying to connect to the game repo and failing, but it is retrying a lot

but if you are seeing updating files, it already connected

[frigid mural]

ah ok

[blazing python]

it is probably done now though

[frigid mural]

i think it's done but not showing it

[blazing python]

when you open and close the text file, it updates the text file with the progress

it gets the current progress at that moment in time when you open it

[frigid mural]

i have the files like preloaded but the installer isn't realizing that

[blazing python]

I don't understand?

[frigid mural]

lemme screenshot

the files seem to be here

but it's saying installing on the installer still

[blazing python]

sounds like you paused it on accident

if you click on the black window, it will pause it

[vagrant parcel]

My map is loading as black only on my phone any solution?

[turbid terrace]

Hey @vagrant parcel! This game is not made for mobile! The only workaround is to install JoiPlay, but any performance issues, bugs, or issues with Android are not fixable. No dedicated mobile version of IF will be developed in the future.

An installation guide for Android can be found HERE.

[blazing python]

you might have to click and press enter for it to unpause

[frigid mural]

oh ok

[blazing python]

that usually means it is not compatible. Did you install using our google doc guide?

[frigid mural]

thx bro

the game looks cool, nice job :)

[tidal thorn]

bro

how to update

[blazing python]

what version are you currently on?

[tidal thorn]

5.3.1.2

[blazing python]

you should have a file in your game folder that is named INSTALL_OR_UPDATE.bat

if you rerun that, it will update your game

[blazing python]

Close the game first and double click on INSTALL_OR_UPDATE

[tidal thorn]

Ok

What the next step

[blazing python]

that is it

open the game again

[tidal thorn]

ok

my game is version 6.0.5 now

thx bro

[blazing python]

no prob!

[ivory fjord]

i still cant encounter raicune

[blazing python]

what are you trying in game?

[ivory fjord]

i think its the story

there are 3 games in the folders

[blazing python]

yeah that is normal

[ivory fjord]

could the save be the problem with encoutering raicune

[blazing python]

idk you aren't giving me more info lol

what are you doing in game to try and find him?

[ivory fjord]

yea

[ivory fjord]

yea

[blazing python]

how are you trying to find him?

[ivory fjord]

using the tracker

[blazing python]

did you talk to update man in the pokemon center again?

talk to him again and select fix game

[ivory fjord]

prob

brb

it just gets stuck in the black animation when u encounter a pokemon

[blazing python]

yeah that is a save file issue on that one

[ivory fjord]

how do i fix this

[blazing python]

You can't. One of us if we have time could try and fix it by editing your save file if you post it here. But depends if we have time

[ivory fjord]

ok

i dmed u the save

[severe topaz]

hey uhh. it´s not really about the save but i tried both options for the "finished" "finished (fusion request name)" and neither of those worked. may i ask how do i exactly mark the request as finished?? and what is it supposed to like do/show? because i´m confused

[ivory fjord]

me?

[severe topaz]

idk

[blazing python]

Are you talking about a sprite request?

[severe topaz]

yup. i´m talking about how to exactly mark it as finished

[blazing python]

I figure you would ask the sprite channel that. We don’t handle that

[severe topaz]

ah, my bad. i apologize

[odd wren]

I have a problem I downloaded the files and click on install or update and once I see press a button to continue nothing happens the game doesn’t appear

[blazing python]

This usually means you are having network issues. Send a screenshot of the window after you run the file again so we can look at it

[odd wren]

Thank you

So I just have this when it’s finished and once I press a button nothing happen

[blazing python]

yeah right there is says unexpected disconnect. This is a network issue on your end

You can try the tips here, but this is something you have to resolve on your end: [Tips](#tech-support message)

[odd wren]

Thanks I will try letter once I get better network

[brisk folio]

I have fixed the buttons in Steam for A being A and B being B but the game still reads as B=A and A=B

[blazing python]

in steam you would reverse it then

A would be B

B would be A

[brisk folio]

I don't want that

I want A as A and B as B

[rigid silo]

from what you are saying, you do want that

you are just confusing yourself

[brisk folio]

No I'm not

[rigid silo]

cool, then whats the problem?

[blazing python]

the game doesn't have controller support so you cant rebind controllers only keyboard

[brisk folio]

I'm using a Nintendo switch controller a is B and B is a I have edited the controls on the steam thing but it's still reading a = b and b = a

[rigid silo]

yeah so on steam you needs to set what megaman set

then the game will read a=a and b=b

a and b are reversed

[blazing python]

also there is a setting in steam for nintedo controller if you didnt see it

[brisk folio]

Where do I find it

[blazing python]

Steam -> Settings -> Controller

[brisk folio]

Ok I have it turned on

[blazing python]

but yeah either way, the game itself doesn't let you remap controllers only keyboard so you have to change controller settings

[brisk folio]

Let's see if that works

Still a no go

[rigid silo]

remap your A button to the C-key and B button to X-key

[brisk folio]

See I set it up and it doesn't do what I want

[rigid silo]

thats how I did it, so that works

[blazing python]

yeah cause you mapping it to how normal games are mapped

this game is different because it is based on RPG maker

[rigid silo]

remap your A button to the C-key and B button to X-key

[rigid silo]

make the buttons work as keyboard keys. that works 100% because im literally using that right now

[wide arrow]

hey why cant i dowload tapjoy

im maean joiplay

[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]

all our guides are there ^^

[wide arrow]

Wdym

[blazing python]

read the bot message I left above

it will take you to our android guide

[wide arrow]

ok thanks

in the video it says to install joiplay but im getting this error should i download?

[rigid silo]

why are you in the google play store....

the guide does not tell you to go there.

[brisk folio]

You need to download it directly from Google Internet from the Joiplay website

[blazing python]

no you dont

[brisk folio]

That's what I did

[wide arrow]

yeah i know when i click install it takes me there

so im not really sure

[blazing python]

the only link to google play store is for RAR the extraction tool

[wide arrow]

i know i mean from this one

[blazing python]

yeah don't use that

we are saying follow our guide

[wide arrow]

oh ok thanks im so dumb lol

[blazing python]

even the video description has this link

[rigid silo]

"MUST" "WON'T" and people question why their game isnt working

[hollow vine]

when i tried researching the answer to my issue it had to do with linux stuff, i have never touched linus in my life haha

(i am the guy with the errors in the pathing)

[blazing python]

yeah seems like your OS is installed incorrectly. Even your original issue with /dev/null is a linux path

[brisk folio]

I'll just get used to the buttons

[hollow vine]

do i have to reset then do you think?

[blazing python]

where did you put the files from the video we gave you?

[hollow vine]

desktop

[blazing python]

Those files 100% work so it is for sure something on your computer having an issue

[hollow vine]

i extracted to the desktop

[blazing python]

Can I see a screenshot of your game folder?

[wide arrow]

sorry for bothering you guys again but do you know where the tutorial to play the game offline is? from the youtube channel Megaman-exe

[blazing python]

the files are in the description of this video Video. just FYI, this will overloaded your android since it is 4 gb and over 300k sprites. So expect LONG download and extract time

[wide arrow]

Ok thank you so much

[blazing python]

have you tried opening Game-preloaded instead?

[wide arrow]

wait how badly will it lag my phone

is should be fine right?

[hollow vine]

ill try that and let you know

[blazing python]

the game won't lag, but the setup will

this game isn't made for Android to begin with. So this game isn't made to be preloaded on phone because of the high amount of sprites for this game

but if ppl want to try, we offer the files but it will take a long time to setup

[hollow vine]

got that after 3 minutes

[blazing python]

yeah unfortunately nothing we can do on our end since this is an issue with your machine

we can only offer advise based on our game files

[hollow vine]

thats alright, will try look into it on my end, cheers mate

do you know how many work items are needed for the game to run?

for the registry

[blazing python]

no, that isn't something we change or do or even look at lol

[teal grove]

This seems like the place to ask so i apologise if its not, but im on mac trying to use homebrew and wineskin to run but it doesnt look like homebrew is actually creating a "/opt/homebrew/bin/brew" path thing for itself. I'm a way out of my depth here so i realistically dont know. Wineskin installed once but Wine Stable didnt and i tried restating the process but i may have just made things worse. this is a cry for help, my brain hurts

[blazing python]

Mac is dumb and each model/OS installs homebrew in different locations, but the location doesn't really matter. Are you getting an error or something? I don't understand what your issue is

[sturdy ivy]

I'm having the same disconnect issues when trying to install sprites. Would someone be so kind as to link me to the github repo for them, please?

[blazing python]

what do you need the sprites for? The game auto installs sprites as you play the game and encounter pokemon

[sturdy ivy]

It certainly tries to 😛

[blazing python]

yeah you having many network issues lol

Read the top of this channel. Our guides are pinned including how to install the sprites manually

[sturdy ivy]

I'm looking at alternative ISPs already, don't worry

[sturdy ivy]

Fantastic, thanks.

[teal grove]

Okay so i installed hombrew, password yada, the next step says to run "eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"" after that it gives back "zsh: no such file or directory: /opt/homebrew/bin/brew"

wich dont seem right

[blazing python]

did you read the prompt you got after installing homebrew?

It says "Next Steps"

it gives you the proper commands to run for your specific OS on the screen

The guide has a lot of commands that hopefully cover the broad range of Mac OS and combinations, but seems like it is missing for where ever yours is being installed

I wish Mac would make up its mind on where things are installed

[rigid silo]

I was surprised I actually got service from my ISP today. Someone came that ACTUALLY knew what they were doing and they even went to a patching center personally.
AND they believed me that a simple restart wont fix it and the problem is nothing on my end.

https://tenor.com/view/the-universe-tim-and-eric-mind-blown-mind-blown-meme-mind-explosion-mind-explosion-meme-gif-18002878

[blazing python]

they always tell me my modem/router is too old and give me a new one after unplugging and plugging it back in 😆

of course after waiting like 3 weeks

[rigid silo]

So apparently some other maintenance dude in the patching center broke my patch panel cable...

but he recognized it immediately, got in his car, drove there himself and fixed it.
No; "let me talk to a supervisor", "we will schedule a fix" etc. etc.

I dont even think he restarted my router once.

Thx mega

[blazing python]

The script installs Homebrew to its default, supported, best prefix (/opt/homebrew for Apple Silicon, /usr/local for macOS Intel

so I guess you have macOS intel

[teal grove]

so should i change all the commads that use opt to /usr/local?

[blazing python]

I am reading your Mac is pretty old and doesn't sell those types of Macs anymore

but yes you would change that out to /user/local anywhere you see /opt/homebrew/

[teal grove]

dquote> export PATH=“/usr/local/bin:$PATH"
zsh: permission denied: /usr/local/bin/
zsh: command not found: “

its differnt now at least..

[blazing python]

if you type brew into your terminal and press enter, what does your terminal say

[teal grove]

my bad

[blazing python]

ok cool so go straight to step 4

the other commands for step 3 and 3.1 are for your computer to recognize homebrew, but it seems like it is fine

[brisk folio]

Is the Pokedex bugged, it won't let me read page 2 and I am using the fusion dex

[blazing python]

can you show an example if you have one?

[brisk folio]

Yeah sure

Hold on

[teal grove]

all the way to 7 now, this may be the consequence of my own action with trying this a few times but running 7 tells me that the latest version is already installed but i don't see it in my applications.

[brisk folio]

When I hit the a button it just goes back right back to the main game and not to the next page

[fast bolt]

There is no next page and there never was

Some dex entries are just too long

[blazing python]

Fused entries are also I believe the 1st half of the first pokemon and 2nd half of the 2nd pokemon

or something like that from what I read a while ago

[brisk folio]

Ah ok

Thanks

[blazing python]

yeah you would need to uninstall it first then try and reinstall

brew uninstall --cask --no-quarantine gcenx/wine/wineskin

That MIGHT work. I recall that can potentially leave left over files as well

[teal grove]

i apologize but

eh?

[blazing python]

brew uninstall --cask gcenx/wine/wineskin

it doesn't like the --no-quarantine. So try without it

[wide arrow]

im finding it really hard to instal; the 4 gb files can someone please help me thanks

it says i need to dowload the rpg maker so im kinda confused

[rigid silo]

only if you are on android, are you?

[wide arrow]

yeah i am

[teal grove]

we are now good up until putting the game in the wineskin app, its an error on my mac "Error while moving file: “InfiniteFusion” couldn’t be moved to “Program Files” because either the former doesn’t exist, or the folder containing the latter doesn’t exist."

[blazing python]

what step are you on in the guide?

[rigid silo]

then follow the guide EXACTLY, it includes links to everything

[wide arrow]

im on the step it tells me todowload the rpg maker

[rigid silo]

there should be a link to the files

[blazing python]

so step 3?

the first line under step 3, it says Plugin Link and then the hyperlink you click to get the files

[wide arrow]

wait lemme show you thanks for helping me btw

[wide arrow]

this one

[blazing python]

why do you keep not using our guide lol

[wide arrow]

im sorry XD

[blazing python]

every link is in our guide

[wide arrow]

yeah but isint that for online playing?

[rigid silo]

no

[wide arrow]

so it works without internet as well?

[rigid silo]

yes, but no

[blazing python]

it is a game exe for online/offline

nothing to do with installation

[wide arrow]

ok letme try

[rigid silo]

just follow the guide exactly, then worry about all the other things

[wide arrow]

on it thanks again!

[blazing python]

This usually means WineSkin is not supported on your machine, but you can use Wine Stable instead. I have instructions here on how to use. I think I might remake my tutorial to just use Wine also since it seems like WineSkin is a headache for a lot of ppl and kind of an extra layer ppl might not need: [Steps](#tech-support message)

[rigid silo]

Not me looking at the document to see if people are actually viewing it

[teal grove]

yes that works

[blazing python]

the only diff really between Wine Stable and WineSkin is that you are essentially creating a Mac app with the files using WineSkin. So you just double click an app and the game opens.

With Wine Stable, it will emulate more the experience on PC where you open the game folder and open Game.exe to open the game

[teal grove]

Thank you so much genuinely didnt think this would work, this is the most helpful i think anyone has ever been for me with like online stuff. did not know you guys were like that and its really cool to see

[blazing python]

Appreciate it! I hope you enjoy the game!

[wide arrow]

I hate myself for asking this and I'm sorry for bothering you again but i got this error. deepest apologies

[blazing python]

that isn't a good sign

[wide arrow]

oh

damn

so there any way i can fix it?

[blazing python]

it gives you steps there....

it is basically saying we know how to solve the error, but this usually means your game won't work

[wide arrow]

thats unfortunate

[blazing python]

In most cases, the game will open to black screen and you will hear music but the screen is still black

nothing on our end we can do to fix that

[wide arrow]

well i cant hear the music but i see

i really want o play this game so im going to try my computer

but thanks for the help you have been a massive help to me!

[raven meadow]

Check the sliders in audio

[blazing python]

they aren't having an audio issue

[raven meadow]

From desktop

Oh

They hear everything besides music?

[blazing python]

no different issue completely lol

[raven meadow]

Did they uninstall and reinstall?

[blazing python]

It is an android issue. They get compile error which tends to be a not compatible issue with their device

[raven meadow]

Oh. So it's not pc

Ofc. Lol

[blazing python]

yeah just scroll a tiny bit up to see we talking about JoiPlay 😆

[ember kestrel]

Hey I'm having an issue on mobile. I know the game isnt made for mobile but the beginning cutscene loads extremely slow (~2 to 6 frames a second) then the game plays as normal. is there a way to remove the intro cutscene or fix the framerate issue?

[turbid terrace]

Hey @ember kestrel! This game is not made for mobile! The only workaround is to install JoiPlay, but any performance issues, bugs, or issues with Android are not fixable. No dedicated mobile version of IF will be developed in the future.

An installation guide for Android can be found HERE.

[blazing python]

I don't suggest it, but you can go to Graphics/Pictures/ and delete the Intro folder. It will make it a black screen instead

[ember kestrel]

I also just had the prompt "RPG Maker isnt responding" with wait or close sooo that is a bit concerning

[blazing python]

yeah the game isn't optimized for android at all so just solely depends on your device

[tulip radish]

just did a clean reinstall using Megamans preload for steam deck. using preloaded exe, getting some stutters while walking like this message here -> #tech-support message

[fading igloo]

[ember kestrel]

I'll try deleting the intro as a last resort before completely removing/reinstalling everything. thanks!

[raven meadow]

My pixel 8 only has 8 gigs of ram. It's bad

It's maxed most of the time

[blazing python]

yeah that is normal on steam deck

[raven meadow]

Cause os is dumb

[tulip radish]

is it? game ran with no issues for me on v5

[blazing python]

v6 needs more power and processing

plus optimized only for windows

[verbal timber]

i've only ever seen 2 games that require more power than this

League

and Crysis

and one of those isn't playable

[tulip radish]

guessing changing vram won't help me will it?

[blazing python]

On steam deck you have a lot of different customizations you can try. I know some ppl perfer less cores for some games like this, others perfer more. Limit FPS also. Just have to play around with it if you really want to try and fix it, but this game has a lot of optimization improvements that can be made so you will see fps dips/drops going from one map to another or moving around in the PC boxes once you have a lot of pokemon

[rigid silo]

For some reason the auto-gen sprites MELT my performance on steam deck. must be something in the script with how they are called.

[tulip radish]

yeah pc I'm used to it being really rough from all the backend nans which is fine, the drops just while running down a hallway is what's gettin to me. you mention fewer cores, I thought the SMT bug was fixed with 3.5?

[weary glade]

Me, who beated the game in a Samsung J7:

[rigid silo]

Shit, old androids work better with PIF than new androids. Good call

[blazing python]

yeah but just tinkering with any setting could work. I know for emulators some games work with less cores over some others for no reason lol

[weary glade]

I mean, the only issue I had was the long ass loading screen, everything else worked perfectly

[blazing python]

also seems like no 2 steam decks are alike so settings vary person to person. Someone the other day opens preloaded with 311k sprites in 2 seconds somehow. Not even using OLED, just og steam deck

[rigid silo]

Yep, same for my s9+. game ran perfectly. Any of my newer android devices: complete ass.

[tulip radish]

presumably mine should be better than stock since I've replaced the backplate with a vented one and changed tim, but 4 pauses moving 3 tiles just hurts my soul

[wide arrow]

for mac is this supposed to happen?

[blazing python]

that is an Unarchiver message, not from us

you can ignore/close it

[wide arrow]

ok perfect

[chrome spoke]

Synchronization primitives. If you don't have hardware accelerated emulation, essentially for each core you add adds extra synchronization checks for any common data to prevent race conditions in the emulated code.
Sorry, nerdsniped, had to mess around with it a lot trying to figure out why a linux dev vm choked hard when I added more cores :')

[blazing python]

which EXE are you opening for the game?

[tulip radish]

preloaded as I saw your message about normal stutter could be from sprite issues and to run alt launcher instead. was getting the same stutters with game.exe after updating

[blazing python]

ah, so far it seems people have a better time opening Game.exe on Steam Deck. On PC it is the other way around

[tulip radish]

hm, I'll try that in a moment then. just grabbed powertools and disabled smt to see if it's the good ol' curse

[blazing python]

Since you still get the perf improvements from the files I provided having all the sprites in them

[rigid silo]

Hmmm interesting. I should add game.exe to my library as well and check if there is a noticable diff.

[tulip radish]

disabling smt resulted in the same number of pauses but significantly shorter, trying game.exe now

[blazing python]

Convo about using Game.exe over Preloaded on Steam Deck: [Link](#tech-support message)

[tulip radish]

yeah, exact same outcome

[blazing python]

yeah last time I suggested it, it worked for them as well

[tulip radish]

game.exe with smt disabled almost got rid of it, but it's still there

[blazing python]

well at least an improvement

you using the latest version of proton also?

[tulip radish]

GE 8-30, freshly grabbed

good point though, sometimes experimental works magic for no reason

[chrome spoke]

So, uh, I ported the new name generator code to C#, and I was wondering if there was someone I could poke regarding getting an OK to release that code? It is after all a straight up plagiarism, certainly derivative :').
Right now said code spits out a 14 megabyte large json file with information in it, and if I could skip redistributing the json file and redistribute my ported code instead that would be a 'bit' lighter. Rest of the program is open source under a MIT license.
It's fine if that's not alright, just figured I'd ask.

(tried checking the git blame on the name generator code, but the commit just says 'update to latest 6.0' by infinitefusion :))

[blazing python]

you'd have to ask the creator if you want permission to copy/paste his code in your app

[weary glade]

Hey quick question, I'm installing the android version for the first time in my device, but when extracting the zip file, it says some files already exist, is this normal?

[rigid silo]

Yeah thats probably something to go over with Frog when he is around

[blazing python]

No that doesn't sound normal, but since it is replacing files it should be ok. But it also suggests that it was there to begin with

[chrome spoke]

Frog, sweet. I'll do that. :)

Actually, uh.. which of the three frogs? :')

[weary glade]

I'm tapping on "Extract to infinitefusion..." wich should create it's own folder, right?

[blazing python]

yes correct, that is very odd

[chrome spoke]

Thanks <3

[weary glade]

And during that same extraction it says it found an already existing file, and its asking me to either skip it or overwrite it

[blazing python]

oo ok yes this is fine. There are like 2-4 files it complains about in git and that is one of them

the file name just triggered me into remembering

[weary glade]

Oh okay, sorry for not sending the screenshot earlier, my gallery got filled with sprites from the game

[blazing python]

It happens on PC as well with the latest version straight from Git

[weary glade]

So should I just replace?

[blazing python]

yes

[weary glade]

Alr, thanks megaman

[tulip radish]

so, seeing the same behavior with GE 8.30, 8.0-5, 7.0-6, Experimental. Stutter is better with SMT disabled but still present. Seems to be something load related, once I get thru the corner I can backtrack with no issue but if the map is unloaded/reloaded, I hit the stutter on the exact same tiles. There's 3 events when you take this corner in Silph Co while Rocket is there.

[blazing python]

Also because this game isn't made for android, the sprites will appear in your gallery. If you delete them from your gallery, it deletes from the game as well

We have some instructions on how to turn that off depending how your photos are setup on android

[rigid silo]

Yeah I get those too, some places are worse than others. One of the towns has 3 right in front of the pokecenter.
Im getting GE 8.30 now and checking if its worse than before. since ive never found them too intrusive.

[wintry ravine]

if im experiecning a lot of lag in level ups and loading zones is there aynthing i can do to fix it?

[blazing python]

Read the top of this channel. All our fixes and performance suggestions are pinned

[rigid silo]

Hes quick with it

https://tenor.com/view/check-the-pins-kowalski-penguin-gif-20219688

[tulip radish]

Forgot to mention, game is on the internal SSD and not on my sd card

[minor drum]

i've launched if through steam but my controllers won't connect at all

can if use joycons?

[rich hazel]

Hi I have an issue when I arrived in goldenrod, my text boxes seem to have vanished so I see the writing with no text box

[blazing python]

This game doesn’t have native controller support so you’d have to setup your joycons using instructions from the internet on how to do that through Bluetooth

[minor drum]

okay, i just read that i can use betterjoy for that, thanks!

[blazing python]

It is a known issue in just that spot. We have a bug for it

[rich hazel]

Ok no worries so once I leave the area should be fixed ?

[blazing python]

Yes it should but double check with us. That spot in goldenrod is the issue, but it will be fine everywhere else. Trying to find the bug

[rich hazel]

Im in ilex forest and still have no text box

[blazing python]

can you share a screenshot?

[blazing python]

oh Android. We can't fix android issues since the game is not developed for android and this is a different issue than I thought it was

[rich hazel]

Ahh ok thats unfortunate

[blazing python]

you can try going to the Pokemon Center -> Talking to Update Man -> Select Fix Game

see if that helps at all

[rich hazel]

Ill give that a try

That worked

[blazing python]

nice!

[rich hazel]

Thanks for the help

[rigid silo]

It does seem that disabling SMT does indeed slightly increase performance on the steam deck, but nothing game changing IMO

[blazing python]

You have OG steam deck also or OLED?

[rigid silo]

OLED

I get a fixed 40fps on general gameplay with 1x speed. with minor freezes on loading zones and huge fps drops on teaching moves to/moving around auto-gen fusions in particular.

the latter has me quite confused, but it is very consistent

[blazing python]

Oh interesting. I wonder why it is still lagging on auto gens. There was a sprite cache implemented too so when I go in my box and go over an auto gen it lags. But anytime after it is a lot better

[rigid silo]

1 Sec, that made me think of something

Nope, thought it was kurays big-icons not working with the cache, but even with it disabled it drops to 4 fps when moving around the auto-gen.

I dont mind though, dont see a reason to use auto gens anyway. only encounter them as coincidental fusions from evolutions anyway

[blazing python]

Oh you using Kuray? That actually has slower performance on Steam Deck than just regular game

[rigid silo]

Yeah im getting normal on here as we speak to test whether i can reproduce it there too.

[blazing python]

I loaded up KIF the other day and was lagging a lot more

[rigid silo]

Im working on a small merge where I just add the large icons and demice to base PIF. since that is all I want Kuray for.

[blazing python]

The box icons?

[rigid silo]

but im willing to take some shitty drops on autogens, no need to bother PIF with it

[rigid silo]

correct

full sprites for pokemon icons

[blazing python]

So far two of us couldn’t change out icons in the normal game. Just swapping out the files didn’t work, but maybe it works for you

I was trying to add missing icons to Pokemon missing them and someone else was adding custom icons, and neither worked for us

[rigid silo]

I think Kuray simply uses a script which overwrites the normal method for getting the icon and then pulls the right sprite from the index.
but it still requires a lot of digging and checking if it is even compatible in the current state

[blazing python]

Yeah I figured you needed to make a script change too since just swapping out the file wasn’t working. Same with music files

From yday [convo](#tech-support message)

[rigid silo]

ive found remnants of online wondertrading

Nevermind, its good old fake wondertrade named onlinewondertrade for some reason 🥸

[fading igloo]

the only "online" referances are if you get a custom spriute with the actual discord name of that spriter

[wide arrow]

for the mac download it did not ask for my password?

oh wait nvm i got it!

[blazing python]

Just a tip whenever you see that, that means you paste it in an extra space at the very end of the line so it is waiting for you to press, enter or type something on afterwards

[slate terrace]

Good evening, I have just brought the launcher under this unstable version, it will no longer receive any updates. BUT I'm going to completely rewrite it entirely in another framework (the project is half abandoned) and normally it will be available for MacOS, Linux and Windows if no problem

I just move to WPF to AvaloniaUI

[rigid silo]

And then we will do gladiatorial combat between your gui launcher and Megamans gui installer

all kidding aside, thats good to hear. Many less tech-knowledgeable people seemed to really be attracted to a launcher.

[wide arrow]

followed the guide got his please help

[blazing python]

You are trying to uninstall homebrew when you don’t have homebrew?

[wide arrow]

oh yeah maked sence knowthanks

[sterile pivot]

hello!!

so basically i can't put sprites into my game (ones that arent in the game already)

[blazing python]

Are you getting an error?

[fading igloo]

for info, ive taught him how to do that, in that case we found out ssunday has no indexed folders

but has played before

[sterile pivot]

yeah what warmaker said

[fast bolt]

If you've never seen the a head fusion of the mon, you won't have a folder for it

In that case, create one

[fading igloo]

the issue is, ssunday has NO indexed folders at all

[fast bolt]

If you've never seen a pikachu fusion, make a folder in indexed named 25

[fading igloo]

and he has played before

[rigid silo]

https://tenor.com/view/czubaszek-bunga-unga-confused-damcio-gif-25656503

[sterile pivot]

i've seen head fusions of lots of pokemon im like half-way through modern mode lol

also im pretty sure im on dynamic

[fast bolt]

Do you have 2 custombattlers folders or something?

[fading igloo]

ssunday has only the .gitkeep file in the indexed folder

[sterile pivot]

nope

[blazing python]

Can you take a screenshot and show us your graphics folder please

[rigid silo]

So, i've had something similar happen where it wasnt generating new indexed folders for species. but then the game would just always display a grey questionmark for those species fusions. After adding the indexed folder manually then it would correctly start showing sprites again for those species.

but it sounds like you are seeing fusions.

[blazing python]

We won’t be able to help unless we see your files rather than secondhand information

[sterile pivot]

one second the keyboard im using rn doesn't do screenshots for some reason

[rigid silo]

win+shift+s aint working either?

or just launching snipping tool like a caveman from the search bar

[weary glade]

I do it like that...

[rigid silo]

[sterile pivot]

here ya go

[blazing python]

Graphics folder please not this one

[sterile pivot]

alr

[blazing python]

Also, you don’t have OneDrive turned on in this folder, right?

Actually, it looks like you do one drive will mess up your files

[sterile pivot]

ohh

[blazing python]

It will override your files based on what you have in OneDrive

[rigid silo]

judging by the status symbol it is turned on

[sterile pivot]

so how would i turn it off

[fading igloo]

thats why we have the tech nerd geniuses here
i wouldnt have think about the onedrive shit 😄

[blazing python]

You would have to Google it because everyone’s OneDrive set up is very different.

[rigid silo]

onedrive doesnt play nicely with PIF

[blazing python]

I personally just uninstall OneDrive whenever I see it lol

[fading igloo]

same 😄

[rigid silo]

you can exclude folders with right click I think. but im not sure. google is your friend here

[fading igloo]

if i want to save something, ill use my usb flash, or external HDD

[blazing python]

Yeah, but that further proves that there’s like 10 different ways to use OneDrive so it’s hard to give instructions to someone for it 😂

[rigid silo]

We use it at my job for storage of sensitive documents, as microsoft is liable if they get leaked then 💰

[blazing python]

I like 💰

[sterile pivot]

if i just delete onedrive will that mess anything up with my computer?

[blazing python]

That is hard to say, depending how it was set up on your computer. Some computers won’t work without OneDrive if it is tied to your user account, for example

[rigid silo]

Easiest would probably be to reinstall it in a non-onedrive location

[blazing python]

This one instead: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/how-to-pause-and-resume-sync-in-onedrive-2152bfa4-a2a5-4d3a-ace8-92912fb4421e

We would still have to troubleshoot your files, but turning off OneDrive would be the first step

[sterile pivot]

ok unlinked it

[blazing python]

Ok now can you take a screenshot of InfiniteFusion/Graphics

I’m picking up my mom from the airport, so if I stop answering that is why lol

[sterile pivot]

dw! family is always more important

here ya go

[blazing python]

Ok great and another screenshot inside of CustomBattlers

[sterile pivot]

trashed the sprites in there i didn't just not do the steps to clarify

[blazing python]

Ok great, so then it looks like these folders are ok now and I don’t see onedrive in there anymore either

So whatever you were trying to do earlier should work and the sprites will start populating here without being overridden/removed

[sterile pivot]

alr! thanks megaman

[blazing python]

No prob! Let me know if you have further issues

[sterile pivot]

..so it kinda didn't work

should i talk to the update man or something to try im real sorry

[fading igloo]

note: onedrive fucks up the sprite adding ...

[astral geyser]

does installing spirte pack like this

work the same as getting the file from #announcements and dragging it into the folder place?

or do i have to do both of them?

[blazing python]

Yes it will do the same thing

[astral geyser]

Thank you.

[blazing python]

Just fyi, the launcher is discontinued now as well so if you have issues with it in the future, we won’t have fixes

It will break next game update

[astral geyser]

what kind of issues?

[blazing python]

I’m back now. So what isnt working?

[astral geyser]

like i wont be able to run the game?

[verbal timber]

possibly

[blazing python]

Correct. Play button won’t work

[astral geyser]

damn

[blazing python]

You can keep using if it is working for you currently but just fyi

[sterile pivot]

it just like
isn't working ngl
name is correct
file is a png
i put it in custombattlers
(the thing is the folders in indexed ain't showing up either)

[astral geyser]

is there going to be an alternative?

[verbal timber]

already is

the lite installer

it was the installer made during the 5.3 era by Hungry Pickle

right now that is the most stable way to play/update the game

[astral geyser]

how do i download it/find it?

[blazing python]

2nd most stable now

[astral geyser]

whats more stable?

[blazing python]

My installer is handling cases it can’t now

[verbal timber]

?tag downloads

[pearl magnet]

You can download the game from #downloads!

[verbal timber]

there are guides pinned in this channel for every device

[astral geyser]

oh perfect

thank you

[blazing python]

This is the one I was referring to. Adding more functionality this week so it can open your game as well so a launcher lite

***(GAME & SPRITE INSTALLER)- *** Installs the Game & Preloaded Sprites for you -> Guide

[astral geyser]

Never understood what preloaded sprites are, am i going to be missing some new sprites?

[blazing python]

They are just sprites if you wanna play the game offline or if you have performance issues

[astral geyser]

oh thats all?

[blazing python]

Yep

[astral geyser]

also last question, am i going to lose my saved data?

[blazing python]

Nope, that is stored in a separate folder completely

You can delete your game folder and your data will still be there

[astral geyser]

okay thank you.

[sterile pivot]

i did try this (it didn't work)

[blazing python]

so when you did this, when you reopened the game, did it say a custom sprite was found?

[sterile pivot]

nope

[blazing python]

and the sprite is still in your folder CustomBattlers?

[sterile pivot]

mhm

[blazing python]

Can I see a screenshot of your InfiniteFusion folder? Where Game.exe is

[sterile pivot]

got it! leme find it rq

;'

[blazing python]

interesting that your game and game-default file have no icons

Is this inside your Documents/infinite/InfiniteFusion folder?

[cerulean crane]

Anyone know why nothing happens when I click "install or update"?

[blazing python]

a cmd prompt isnt opening?"

[cerulean crane]

nope

[blazing python]

so no window opens? nothing?

[cerulean crane]

correct

[blazing python]

that is a computer issue

[cerulean crane]

wild

[blazing python]

you should check if your anti virus is blocking it first though

sounds like it is being blocked

If you need instructions, add the folder the files are in using this: Link

[sterile pivot]

yes it is :) sorry for late response

[blazing python]

Ok I would suggest deleting the Data folder completely and rerunning INSTALL_OR_UPDATE.bat so that your script files get repopulated and reinstalled

This would essentially reinstall the game without needing to delete your whole folder or sprites

[sterile pivot]

im not gonna lose progress or anything, correct?

[blazing python]

Correct. Your save is stored in a completely different folder so you can actually delete your game folder and your save will still be there

[sterile pivot]

alr deleted and reinstalled
now just add the sprites in?

[blazing python]

the sprite should still be there I believe you said?

[sterile pivot]

ah yea

[blazing python]

but either way yes, it should hopefully do its job 🙂

[sterile pivot]

hoping rn rghh

omg it didn't work.

[blazing python]

can I see the file?

[sterile pivot]

i think thats what ya meant

[blazing python]

correct

just wanted to make sure the sprite worked and it does

[sterile pivot]

so it is a problem on my end

[blazing python]

yeah it just doesn't make sense because you essentially reinstalled the game.

Can I see a screenshot of where you placed the sprite?

just to double check but I am pretty sure you put it in the right spot

[blazing python]

and if you right click the file and click properties, can I double check the file properties?

After this I have just one more place I can think of to check, but I am running out of ideas

[sterile pivot]

hm, could be the security part?

[blazing python]

oooo

that might be it!

unblock it, but I've never seen that security message on a sprite before

[sterile pivot]

it's not it

i hope your last idea works lmao

[blazing python]

i wonder if that is why we don't see icons on your files too, wonder if your computer/anti virus is blocking the files in the game

[sterile pivot]

hm, is it? i've never seen missing srites

sprite

sprites

[weary glade]

Shouldn't it go into indexed > 79 ?

[sterile pivot]

theres nothing in my indexed folder

[blazing python]

the game should index it itself

[weary glade]

Or is that just for mobile

[sterile pivot]

also random thing that prob doesn't apply but i found the index of sprites like it but in the battlers folder

[blazing python]

yeah they are in both.
CustomBattlers = Custom Sprites
Battlers = Auto Gen Sprites

[sterile pivot]

oh kk

[blazing python]

Sorry I was testing my last suggestion. But it doesn't work the way I thought it did.

I am wondering if running our sprite installer and resetting your Graphics folder with it would help?

I honestly have no idea what is going on, on your end.

[sterile pivot]

delete or reset?

also i have no idea what ya mean by sprite installer sorry

[blazing python]

We have a sprite installer: Link
It will basically clean out your Graphics/CustomBattlers folder and install the sprites for you

Assuming that your game is working and will index them for you after

[sterile pivot]

..i don't have to do the install game part right

this is probably obvious but

[blazing python]

Correct, you can click on the Sprite Menu and select the Install Custom Sprites option

[fading igloo]

anyone realized its still in onedrive...?

[sterile pivot]

..it is?

[fading igloo]

considering the file path, its still in an onedrive ...

[blazing python]

Yeah, but the synch stopped

[sterile pivot]

why did my indexed folder just disappear

uhhh

[blazing python]

Wait until the installer is done

[sterile pivot]

alr installer is currently doing its thing

[fading igloo]

i hope youre not in the onedrive path now .. directly run it on your desktop

onedrive just make things too complicated ...

[sterile pivot]

so the sprite installer works!
should i try to do the add sprite other stuff etc?

[blazing python]

It opened the game, right?

And it mentioned that sprites were imported?

[sterile pivot]

yeah

about like 120000 lol

this is ok to be here, right?

[blazing python]

Yeah, there is a Sprite in the repo that’s not formatted correctly left in there

That is for the sprite team to fix😀

But yeah try adding your sprite now

[sterile pivot]

IT WPORKER

YESS

[blazing python]

[fading igloo]

hours of work just to add 1 damn sprite ....... 😄

[sterile pivot]

weird thing is that i have two ifs now hehe

thank you warmaker and megaman!!

[blazing python]

Looks like my sprite installer feature of cleaning out your sprites worked 🙂

[fading igloo]

i just gave you the start, megaman did 98% 😄

if i ever meet something liuke that again ill tell the person to delete the game, uninstall onedrive and fresh install the game without onedrive xD

[blazing python]

well reinstalling the game didnt solve

using the sprite installer to clear out their sprites and reinstall the custom sprites did

[fading igloo]

okay ... then ill send them all over to you if i ever notice another onedrive user xD

[weary glade]

[fading igloo]

without onedrive its not a problem ... but onedrive makes everything 4 times more difficult 😄

[sterile oracle]

a windows sound appears when i click anything

any fix for that?

o

its fixed?

[blazing python]

From clicking in game?

[sterile oracle]

sorry nvm

it fixed

idk what happened

[fast bolt]

The game has no mouse controls, so there's no reason to click anything

[muted cape]

I downloaded infinite fusion and got the desktop shortcut done and all that but when i try to download the actual game from the desktop shortcut after opening it, it either closes before the download starts or the dowload is just stuck at 0%. Can anyone help me with that

[blazing python]

Can you show us what you mean?

[muted cape]

no i didn't, i can't really show it but when I downloaded the file from discord did the install and then opened it after the actual download inside of the game wouldn't work

[blazing python]

So you installed InfiniteFusion.zip right?

[muted cape]

yes

[blazing python]

You extracted it and now you are opening INSTALL_OR_UPDATE.bat

[muted cape]

yes

[brisk mortar]

Is there a specific version i need to download to get it working with joiplayer on android? Im getting a black map (void) when i launch

[turbid terrace]

Hey @brisk mortar! This game is not made for mobile! The only workaround is to install JoiPlay, but any performance issues, bugs, or issues with Android are not fixable. No dedicated mobile version of IF will be developed in the future.

An installation guide for Android can be found HERE.

[blazing python]

We would need a screenshot of the black window that opens when opening that file to troubleshoot the issue

if it gets stuck at 0%, that is a network issue

[muted cape]

no no no so here let me explain it differently

[blazing python]

The bot below your message answered your question. our guide is linked there. If you don't follow the steps, the game won't work

[blazing python]

a screenshot would be better honestly

[muted cape]

so i got al that done the install and got the .zip and when i open the actual icon for the game it won't load

and ok let me try to get it real quick

[blazing python]

So this is what you see right?

[muted cape]

yes

sorry for the wait

[fast bolt]

Are you opening Game or Game-preloaded?

Preloaded won't work without extra steps

[muted cape]

game game

[blazing python]

So double click game nothing opens?

[muted cape]

no it opens and then it says "install" and then i click on it, it either closes after a few mins or it just sits there stuck

[blazing python]

Can you show us what you are seeing? Opening the game doesn’t give you another button to install

[muted cape]

im saying from the launcher

[blazing python]

Don’t use the launcher. You are mixing up two different things.

The launcher is discontinued. Also it isn’t on our download list anymore.

[muted cape]

oh ok

thats makes sense thank you so much have a good day

[brisk mortar]

I keep getting the error with default bgm 76 issue ive seen mentioned a few times is there a known fix?

[pliant sedge]

i am having trouble dowloading the game had the download link changed

[blazing python]

Written guide: [Link](#tech-support message)

[blazing python]

Do you have a screenshot of the error?

[blazing python]

You have to optimize your maps in Joiplay

[brisk mortar]

Tried that. It crashes whenever it gets to no. 76

Appreciate the help though

[inland kettle]

Weird glitch, Ive been streaming the game for my friends. No lag, sprites start vanishing and the music just disappears randomly. So I restarted the game and that fixed that. But a new glitch has entered when the Party Menu hard lags when both opening it. Trying to use a healing item and switching my party. Re-Restarting the game did not fix it

[trim fox]

Get the preloaded sprite pack to play preloaded mode so there's less stress on your internet

[inland kettle]

Already done

Thats what I’ve been doing

There’s no lag on loading either

just the party menu

Which is why this is a weird glitch

[fast bolt]

Are you using something with an autogen sprite?

Autogens are known to lag the game

[inland kettle]

I am using a Noctowl + Eevee since I haven’t gotten a Shiny Stone yet

Assuming thats an “autogen” sprite

[fast bolt]

If it looks like it's just one mon's face and colors smashed into the other mon with pixely hands and/or feet, it's an autogen

[inland kettle]

Yeah

I swapped the sprite settings from "Combined" to "DNA" and it fixed itself

that's very weird

[serene epoch]

So the launcher is trying to download the game, but when it starts extracting, it closes and reopens the launcher and asks me to install it again

[blazing python]

Don’t use the launcher. It is discontinued and not part of the download list

[serene epoch]

oh okay

What should I download the game through?

[fast bolt]

?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

[fast bolt]

Follow the guide

[haughty stone]

whats this mean?

[blazing python]

You tried opening the preloaded game without setting it up. It doesn’t work out of the box. Open Game.exe instead it requires no setup

[haughty stone]

the game-default?

or just game

[blazing python]

Just game is fine

Both are the same thing

[haughty stone]

will it load the areas faster like preloaded?

[blazing python]

No, but if you want preloaded you have to use the Sprite installer to install the sprites

[haughty stone]

theres new sprites?

[blazing python]

You need ALL sprites to play preloaded. All 311,000 of them

[haughty stone]

ah ok

where is the download?

downloads?

[blazing python]

Pinned to this channel

[haughty stone]

i downoad the one for preloaded manuel yes?

[blazing python]

The Sprite installer will do it for you. Unless you want to do it manually.

[haughty stone]

which is faster for the game to load?

i dont mind the first loading time

[blazing python]

open game.exe and test the performance of the game. If it is slow for you, come back to download the sprites. If your computer/internet is good, you don’t need them

Preloaded is mostly only if you have performance issues

[haughty stone]

yeah

alright

[vivid matrix]

Was there a patch I missed that fixes the new launcher issue? It says install and the when it's done it says install again and never actually installs the new updates, I believe. Just checking to see if I missed something.

[vagrant burrow]

Hey there folks

I'm trying to start a new game, but when I press "enter" it isn't accepting my name, nor is it accepting "escape" for to cancel

[fast bolt]

The launcher isn't even available to download anymore and has been discontinued.

It will never work

[fast bolt]

Mobil? Go to options and change text input from keyboard to cursor

[vagrant burrow]

Ja, mobil

I will try this 🙂 thank you

Wait, what options? Like in joiplay?

[fast bolt]

In game

The normal options menu

[vagrant burrow]

Ah okay, thanks mate

[fast bolt]

You will be able to enter your name like a GBA game

Where you choose the letters

[vivid matrix]

So back to how I was originally updating the game. Correct?

[fast bolt]

With the INSTALL_OR_UPDATE.bat

[wooden wasp]

I click on it now what?

[vagrant burrow]

It's working perfectly so far! Thank you so much mate

[lone onyx]

Ahem, so, i might've done something dumb, and messed up my game. Is there anywhere recent saves are saved for the game?

[wooden wasp]

Why does does it not work

[fast bolt]

Because you didn't follow the mobile guide

[turbid terrace]

Hey @fast bolt! This game is not made for mobile! The only workaround is to install JoiPlay, but any performance issues, bugs, or issues with Android are not fixable. No dedicated mobile version of IF will be developed in the future.

An installation guide for Android can be found HERE.

[fast bolt]

Read^

[fast bolt]

There are no backups

If you saved over your file, that's it

[lone onyx]

nah 💀 i got nosey a bout the suspicious prisms in the tower in lavender town and cheated them in bc curious but i wiped to a trainer in the tower after that and my game saved after that automatically so i couldnt go back xd. I found the switches to disable it tho so I think i fixed my issue

[warm carbon]

Any solutions to the game crashing against trainers in randomised mode?

[verbal timber]

if you are on the modern mode patch, you can't randomize trainers

[turbid terrace]

Hey @verbal timber! 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!

[verbal timber]

[neat vault]

preloading the sprites or custom sprites doesn't work. How to fix this?

[rigid silo]

Try continue first.

[rigid silo]

But we recommend that you install everything, including the game, on your desktop first. And then move it afterwards. For this exact reason; file permission problems.

[neat vault]

i already run the game but even after i tried again this happens in the error log

[tender canyon]

i downloaded the game, but i don't find the folder with the game in it

where is it ?

[fading igloo]

most likely where you downloaded it ... in your fownload folder by default

[tender canyon]

it's not

i don't find it

[fading igloo]

its still there where you downloaded it .. i dont know where you saved it .. in case, you can download again and see where the default folder is

[tender canyon]

ok i'll try that

thank you

[rigid silo]

We never move the main folder. All the files are where you personally left them

Thats not something we can help with

If you mean; "i have the folder but don't know how to start the game?'

Check our pins for installation guides.

https://tenor.com/view/check-the-pins-kowalski-penguin-gif-20219688

[tender canyon]

no i mean that i don't have the file 'game'

i tried 3 time to download it and it says it was successful but i don't have the 'game' file

[fading igloo]

you have to install the game by running the install_or_update.bat first ......

[tender canyon]

yes i did that

[fading igloo]

but first, extract and drag it to the desktop

THEN run the installer

watch the cmd window and watch out for errors

[tender canyon]

okay i'll retry

thanks

[jade wind]

In some routes I've gotten bugs where certain tiles have the wrong texture, but it was never horrible so I didn't bother, but now it's happening in this city, so is there any way to fix this? I've already organized maps 3 times and nothing changed.

[rigid silo]

If you got your download from the discord, followed the guide exactly, and optimised maps. Then this is the best your device can do.

[jade wind]

Hmm I got the download from the website, would that be any different?

[clever tartan]

Hello, I need help because i can't install the game on windows 11

[rigid silo]

VERY DIFFERENT. we DO NOT have a website.

All websites are FAKE

[jade wind]

Yooo wtf

Well I'm glad I don't have a virus lmfao

Hmm well I hope I can transfer the save from this to the new download -_-

[rigid silo]

First thing in the downloads channel, posted by the creator of the game

[fading igloo]

the game launcher tells we dont have a website ... now im asking what version people are running ...

[vale minnow]

Hello, I downloaded the game today through Discord. But I have huge lags (several minutes) when opening the game, and just moving forward in the game (lag during the cutscene, when launching the game, when I look at my team, when I start a fight...). What can I do to improve the gaming experience?

[rigid silo]

I wonder if the website owner takes out that script.

[rigid silo]

https://tenor.com/view/check-the-pins-kowalski-penguin-gif-20219688

[fading igloo]

they do, they just copy it but dont play the game themselves (anymore) so they dont realize 6.0.5 has the implemented text

[jade wind]

Ahh I see, tbh I only joined the server about 10 minutes ago lol so I did not read that

[fading igloo]

and the installer just updates to the latest version at a fresh install

[jade wind]

Wow wtf, that's insane to me lol, I've never seen anything like that. I guess I do mostly just play steam games though

[fading igloo]

thats why im asking what version your game is

[jade wind]

Oh yeah lemme check real quick

[rigid silo]

Yeah there are 2 main offenders in redistributing our game (with or without malware)
There are talks among tech support to try and take them down, but that may or may not work.

[jade wind]

Game version 6.0.2 is what I have

[fading igloo]

that explains ... get a fresh install from #downloads as ymir said before .. delete the game folder you got from that fake site

[jade wind]

I'm assuming it's outdated then?

[fading igloo]

yea

[jade wind]

Also can I transfer the save from the website download to the official one?

[rigid silo]

And a security risk, and fullllll of bugs

[fading igloo]

latets version is 6.0.5

[jade wind]

Yeah for sure sketch asf

[fading igloo]

it might work, but it might be better to not use it, it might be corrupted already

the official game might not even notice it

[jade wind]

Hmm I see, unfortunate

I'll probably just restart lol

Yeah the website I downloaded it from had wayyy more effort put into it than the "typical" scam website. It looked well designed and everything, so I guess it just didn't trigger my sketchy website sensor lol

[fading igloo]

youre not the only one, many people fall for it

[jade wind]

This is the one I used btw. Funny enough looks like the version on the website was updated to 6.0.5 yesterday
https://pokemoninfinitefusion.net/

[fading igloo]

yeah, its a fake website

only trustable sources to download is the subreddit, the infinite fusion wiki, this discord and an outdated version at pokecommunity

everything else is fake

[jade wind]

Aight homies, I'm gonna dip, but I appreciate the help, thanks 🫡

[rigid silo]

That update thing is fake. It has said 1 day ago for a whileeee

[brisk folio]

How do I fix this it's stuck here

[blazing python]

Pressing enter or escape doesn’t do anything?

[brisk folio]

Nope

I had to force quit it

Luckily I saved during a wonder trade

[blazing python]

We don’t troubleshoot modded/altered files period. My recommendation would be to reinstall

[compact kayak]

Oh sorry for the inconvenience then I probably will reinstall if I can't get it to work
