You only install preloaded if your computer cannot handle the regular game

All the info for preloaded is here: #tech-support message

[worldly geode]

it can it just runs slow when i screen share to my friend so

i was gonna do preloaded

[crude sonnet]

I'm trying to download the game, do I need to run install or update.bat to get all the files?

[vestal root]

Does anyone know a fix to the fusions being invisible until I restart the game? For example, I just fused 2 Pokemon and their icon in the party is invisible. I have it set to shared and not the DNA icon so it should be half/half. If I restart the game it fixes it. I'm playing on preloaded, is that the cause?

[blazing python]

Yup or use our new app installer

[blazing python]

This is a known bug using preloaded. No fix for it at the moment, but yes this is a preloaded only issue

[crude sonnet]

Thank you!

[vestal root]

Alright, thank you

[velvet field]

My game isnt starting up when I hit play

it was just working an hour ago

[blazing python]

Using the new app installer?

[velvet field]

yes

[blazing python]

Can you go to settings and click Open game folder. Your files are still there right?

You should see Game.exe and Game-preloaded.exe?

[velvet field]

yes theyre there, but it now says there no folder for the game install, but I was just playing?

yes i see both

[blazing python]

In settings click Change Game Folder and reselect your game folder

I’m not really sure what happened there. I’d have to try and take a look, but that will relink everything back together

[velvet field]

still says no installation folder

[blazing python]

Is it an error message?

[blazing python]

A screenshot would help

If you click details, can you screenshot the additional info it shows

[blazing python]

Did you try installing the game?

[velvet field]

yes

[blazing python]

It says your computer can’t open it. I think you need to restart your computer honestly

[velvet field]

ok

[blazing python]

That should help. But you shouldn’t need to reinstall. You can click Change Game Folder in settings and select your folder and it will link.

[velvet field]

still not working, same message

maybe my system cleaned out certain files

but idk

[blazing python]

The message you showed to install?

[velvet field]

yes

[blazing python]

Well what happens when you do the steps I mentioned about relinking instead of installing?

[velvet field]

still not loading up

[blazing python]

Does just opening the game without the installer open?

[velvet field]

only through the file folder

[blazing python]

Yeah that is really odd. Somehow your installer exploded 😅

[velvet field]

welp

do i delete and reinstall

[blazing python]

Yes, here is the link:

Download the zip: Download Link

[velvet field]

just reinstalled and same error

idk what it could be

do i have delete all game folders?

because i would like to keep my saves

[blazing python]

No this is something with the installer itself and your computer. Your game folder is completely unaffected

[velvet field]

well idk what it is lol

[blazing python]

Yeah me neither. Because even the error itself from installing doesn’t make sense. It just says you computer couldn’t run the script to install and it returned an error saying Unknown Error. The installer doesn’t even know why it isn’t working

[velvet field]

hmmmm

welp ig no more infinte fusions for me

[blazing python]

You can play opening the game folder instead. The installer is just a UI to open the game and manage updates. But you can still double click game.exe or whichever you were playing with no issues

[velvet field]

yeah true, it still works

the installer just imploded when i updated my computer

[blazing python]

When you downloaded the zip again and extracted it, you used the new folder to open it correct?

Just to double check.

[velvet field]

i believe so

[blazing python]

Microsoft says this error is from either
1: the files of the installer are not complete/corrupted. If you reinstalled, shouldn’t be a problem

2. A 3rd party app that syncs like onedrive broke it or anti virus is blocking it

Windows updates are usually security updates. Wonder if it is blocking it

Add the entire PokemonInfiniteFusionInstaller folder to Windows Defender's exclusions: Link

[sterile pivot]

i downloaded the sprites, but the pokemon still show up as a question mark

[blazing python]

That usually means you put them in the wrong folder but these steps fix the question marks: [Steps](#tech-support message)

[velvet field]

ohhhhhh its my virus protection

it just ran a deep virus cleaning

[blazing python]

Ooo that explains it!

I wish I could get my app certified but it costs almost $800 a year

[chilly cedar]

I was going to ask you about that awhile ago when you mentioned looking into and the finances were making you hesitant.

Understandable, holy shit.

[blazing python]

Yeah it makes no sense to me why their quote is sooo high AND for it to be yearly is insane. I’m hoping to find alternatives but if it is a yearly cost, no way I can do it

[chilly cedar]

Yeah that's insanely high. I was expecting maybe $100 or something

yeah on top of it being a lump sum annual payment, thats rough.

[blazing python]

I think I might have found a different place I can get it cheaper but it is still something that needs to be renewed yearly unfortunately for 400 a year

[chilly cedar]

A different place than Microsoft? I'm not savvy on certifying programs, just be careful not to fall for some dressed up website.

I'd honestly just give you $400 to do it but I am currently saving up to get a car since the last one went with my ex and son.

[blazing python]

no don't worry about it! i think i need to make the app have a setup process as well for it to work as well

[mossy sentinel]

trying to do a randomizer run an this occurs basically everytime I confirm the settings? Also have to try to start the game multiple times after using game.exe/game-default.exe cause it pulls up the green opening screen then just crashes with no error I've been kinda skipping around this thread some an haven't seen it occur at the same point?

i have like a 1/10 chance for the game to continue to launch after it hits the green screen lol

have reinstalled 3 times now w/ one of those times being the other launcher thing

[blazing python]

where did you get the game files from? this discord or a website?

[mossy sentinel]

discord

also I forgot to say thank you for any help lol mb

[blazing python]

Are you on 6.0.5?

and did you select Randomized mode from the start or modern mode?

need more info on what you were trying to select and do

[mossy sentinel]

randomized from the start and I'm on whatever the installer_or_update bat gives me

didn't even make it to the point where I could play the game

it's a fresh game every time

[blazing python]

when you open the game, check the title screen

it shows the version

[mossy sentinel]

i would

but it keeps crashing before that point so gimme a sec

it works sometimes lol

[blazing python]

if you click and press buttons when the game is loading, the game crashes

[fading igloo]

well, it should be 6.0.5 .. its a fresh install with the installer

[blazing python]

the poke community doesnt but it isn't using the installer i think

[mossy sentinel]

yeah I'm not pressing any buttons

[chilly cedar]

Poke community also had a data breach earlier this month. Feb 9th iirc.

[mossy sentinel]

neat a new error this is different

[blazing python]

you need to reinstall completely using our app installer

[mossy sentinel]

I di

did

[fading igloo]

(NEW APP INSTALLER) - All-in-one installer and launcher for the game! Stay updated on game and sprite updates -> [Guide](#tech-support message)

[blazing python]

also you should try installing the game on the desktop

new installer

not the one you using

[mossy sentinel]

Its on desktop and using that installer

[blazing python]

you said you used the bat file

im not talking about that

[fading igloo]

follow the link i gave, megamans installer is easier to handle than the one in #downloads

[mossy sentinel]

that's how I did it the first two times

[blazing python]

can you provide clean info?

[mossy sentinel]

This correct?

it is indeed 6.0.6

[blazing python]

yeah so we on the same page. You on 6.0.5

[fading igloo]

6.0.6? did an update happen?

[blazing python]

no

[mossy sentinel]

sorry mistyped 6.0.5

[blazing python]

weird it doesn't say the game version at the top of the app

something seems off about that

if you install using the app or link your game folder, it would pull that from your game files

[mossy sentinel]

i got it from the pinned

[fading igloo]

damn .. windows doesnt like megamans launcher 😦

[mossy sentinel]

yeah I added an exclusion for it lol

[blazing python]

yeah could be a security thing not letting you connect to the game repo properly.

[mossy sentinel]

it finally launched and it for some reason detected a keybind from a long time ago?

[blazing python]

you getting game errors that are not common

[mossy sentinel]

Is there an appdata folder that hold old stuff? I deleted the saves folder when reinstalling

[blazing python]

yeah keybinds are in there too

if you open settings on the app installer it has a button to open the save folder to take you there

[mossy sentinel]

indeed they are but when it launched it said it detected old keybinds please relaunch and readdedd those to the save folder

[blazing python]

it is because of the crashes. it creates it on load, but your game keeps crashing

[mossy sentinel]

ah neat

[fading igloo]

norton when i started megamans launcher to check the latest game version:
(dont worry, i just clicked to allow it permanent) 😄

So I have been trying and watched all the videos I could find so I tried to not have to bother but I cannot get the game to download properly can I get some assistance?

[mossy sentinel]

I'm a man of culture I just let windows defender go and pray

yeah it doesn't like that it is connecting to github

but I use that to get the latest version of the tool to break the one uploaded on the fake website

Alrighty I really appreciate your time and the download is going now thank you.

[fading igloo]

youre welcome 🙂

[velvet latch]

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I started for the first time and can't seem to get the A button to work with Z. X as B works just fine, but if I want to select something I have to enter, when I'd rather only use that side for movement. Nothing and binded to enter either Z just isn't selecting anything.

[velvet latch]

Oooh it's C

I do have one more question btw, after every cut scene or scene change my game lags

[blazing python]

That depends on your PC and your internet. Our pinned messages have performance tips

[velvet latch]

It runs fine normally, but when I have to leave or enter a room there's around a 6 second delay, with cutscenes it's more

Alr cool!! Tysm and sorry for the hassle

[blazing python]

[TIPS](#tech-support message)

[fading igloo]

run game.exe
not default
not preloaded

[shrewd cairn]

It has that weird 10 second pause

the black screen?

[turbid terrace]

Hey @shrewd cairn! 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.

if nothing of that help, install the preloaded sprites from the pins, then you can run preloaded launcher

Oh alright

yea was kinda annoying but nvm

[muted acorn]

what

[fading igloo]

dont start the preloaded launcher, start "game"

[dry tundra]

it says that graphics from egg hatching are missing but a friend of mine installed the same version and it works on his pc

[fading igloo]

just making sure, where did you get the game from?

[dry tundra]

from the alternative download link of the new launcher

[fading igloo]

hmm, if you relaunch the game, does that error still appears?

[dry tundra]

yes

[fading igloo]

what egg did you pick up to make that error happen?

or better, what should hatch from the egg?

[dry tundra]

It’s the egg in the secret place on route 1

[fading igloo]

rockruff, i see

[dry tundra]

Idk it’s randomized

[fading igloo]

did you start in randomizer? or modern mode and midgame enable randomiser?

[dry tundra]

Start in randomizer

[fading igloo]

hmm, eggs shouldnt be randomized at all

okay .. you are on game version 6.0.5?

[dry tundra]

Idk but my friend who also plays on randomised has rockruff from that egg

[dry tundra]

Yes

[fading igloo]

yeah, the secret garden egg is a rockruff

[fast bolt]

Eggs don't get randomized

So they're always the same

[fading igloo]

hmm ... problem is now im unable to solve that issue ... you might have to wait for megaman

@blazing python we have an issue [here](#tech-support message)
(issue solved, reinstalled worked)

[fast bolt]

I say just reinstall the game. That will get any missing files.

Something probably messed up with the download

[fading igloo]

reinstall might also help, dont worry about your file, its somewhere else stored on your pc

[dry tundra]

I can try to update the game

[tranquil cipher]

Is your game not on 6.0.5?

[fading igloo]

there is no update yet .. but you can also try talking to the update man in the pokecenters to fix your game

[dry tundra]

yes it is

[tranquil cipher]

Then yeah, I'd probably just reinstall

[dry tundra]

ok thanks for the advice

ok i reinstalled the game and now it works thank you

[rough garnet]

Hi, I tried following the steps in Megaman's TECH SUPPORT DIRECTORY post but at Step 6, I can't find the file "Game" I don't think there was any errors in Step 5 tho, can anyone help? 😦

[fading igloo]

thats the main error in this prompt

you might also consider installing it on your desktop .. after the installing process you can drag it somewhere else

[pliant fulcrum]

Can i ask here, how do I get a custom sprite and input it into the games, I have dynamic version tho but I want to double check if the fusion of certain pokemon does exist in gallery or nah (for now it doesnt)

[turbid terrace]

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

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

[pliant fulcrum]

Oh wow got answered by bot

[fading igloo]

if the sprites is on daena as alternate sprite, the game downloads itself when you fuse or encounter that fusion

[pliant fulcrum]

Wait what is this daena thing

[fading igloo]

?tag daena

[pearl magnet]

https://if.daena.me/

[fading igloo]

Hello, my game just crashed, and now, when I start it again, It shows me a menu with "New game" "Options" "Quit Game", whereas I was fighting Morty... I think I'll delete the game, redownload it and reinstall it, but first I need to know where is the save file, to keep my game. Please help ^^'

[turbid terrace]

Hey @tame canyon! 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!

[fading igloo]

you find your save file if you open the folder called "savefiles" inside the game folder

[tame canyon]

Ah yes, thank you, Does the keybindings.mkxp1 is to keep with ?

[fading igloo]

not sure if its save to delete it .. best case (if you delete that) it just reset the controls to default

[tame canyon]

Ok, I'll keep a copy in case. Thanks a lot !

[fading igloo]

tho, deleting and reinstalling the game doesnt touch your savefiles

[nimble abyss]

I have a question i wanted to download and install the jjk sprites but how do you do it im confused on how to get to the sprite ment on the document. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1h_ET_XjxWU3jJ29duUVwYGKHpfdxKyb6R9l-FruzTLw/edit

[fading igloo]

just grab megamans launcher and you can install the preloaded sprites with 1 click ...

[blazing python]

What does jjk mean?

[fading igloo]

jujutsu kaisen

its an anime 😄

[blazing python]

Ooo haven’t seen it abbreviated 😅 but you would use the Sprite Menu and click Install Custom Sprites right? You don’t need preloaded sprites for that

[fading igloo]

btw megaman .. do you have a solution for this error that doesnt include reinstalling?

[blazing python]

This is usually from installing from Draps launcher. They are missing the egg hatching animation that is only installed from installing the game. If they have the install or update batch file, or use my app to update the game, it should install it

[fading igloo]

if you wanna read back, they said they got the game from YOUR alternative download link

which is why i am confused that egg hatch animation was missing

[blazing python]

Yeah shouldn’t be missing but also the reason why they got that link to begin with is internet issues not connecting to our game repo. I can double check the alt download in a second

[limpid basin]

can i get some help downloading it

[fading igloo]

(NEW APP INSTALLER) - All-in-one installer and launcher for the game! Stay updated on game and sprite updates -> [Guide](#tech-support message)

pretty self explaining, the launcher tells you what it needs .. if it needs something

[limpid basin]

is there a way i can download it without oppening the discord

[blazing python]

all the links are in discord so it would be hard to do

[fading igloo]

you download the game just once .. after that you dont need discord to play

[blazing python]

i think they dont have discord installed on their pc like a person yday

[fading igloo]

in case, just save the link somewhere

[blazing python]

I made a tinyurl link for you to be nice:
http://tinyurl.com/pifappinstallation

[blazing python]

I looked at it and the file is there. It is looking for Graphics/Battlers/Eggs/000_cracks.png

[fading igloo]

megaman does everything to make everyone happy, thats why hes the GOAT 😄

[fading igloo]

so your download is correct .. might be the bad internet didnt download everything correct?

[blazing python]

it is weird cause reinstalling usually fixes this. I can "reinstall" and reupload the alt link

[fading igloo]

yeah, reinstalling fixed it

[limpid basin]

so im trying to get it on a computer that has discord blocked on the internet and i cant use a hotspot becuase it uses ethernet, I have never downloaded it before

[blazing python]

http://tinyurl.com/pifappinstallation

use this link to get to the google doc with all the links

[fading igloo]

save that link on your phone and type it in your internet browser @limpid basin

[limpid basin]

ok

thank you

@fading igloo it does not give me the extract all option i only have open and show in folder

[fading igloo]

did you download the zip folder?

[limpid basin]

yes

[blazing python]

after downloading, you have to go to the folder where it was downloaded to. Not right click it from your browser

[fading igloo]

then right mouse button on the folder "extract"

[limpid basin]

ohh ok

that worked

[fading igloo]

in best case the unzipped folder is on your desktop now, open the folder and run the launcher

[limpid basin]

it says that windows protected my pc

[fading igloo]

click "more info" then "run anyway"

windows doesnt like such files, thats why it gives warnings

[limpid basin]

it workes thank you both so muh

much

What happens when I get here

[fading igloo]

?

[blazing python]

when you open the app? Click No on the pop up since you don't have the game installed

Then there is a giant INSTALL button on the page

[tame canyon]

hello back, So, the game works now but... My saved game doesn't appear on the start menu... Fear that the last crashes have corrupted the File A file

[blazing python]

can you send your save here so I can verify?

[fading igloo]

if you didnt change the location of the save file, it should pull it from there

[blazing python]

kk got it. deleted it from here

[tame canyon]

No I didn't change the location...

[autumn ridge]

Okay question. What risk am I at if I downloaded the game from the sketchy website we all hate first? What can I do to protect myself or fix my safety. I didn’t notice the discord until the first in game message that said I’m dumb for downloading it from a site.

[weary glade]

Delete every file you downloaded from the website and run a virus scan

[blazing python]

it contains malware

[autumn ridge]

Nobody shares proper links in their YouTube videos. Gotcha.

[weary glade]

Yeah, sadly

[blazing python]

Nope, that is why I created Official guides for the game

but I am not as big as those youtubers lol

[autumn ridge]

Sketchy website lands at the top of google searches which sucks.

[blazing python]

and they also use our files and inject them with malware. So when you do download the real one, it looks the same

they are scum

[sly burrow]

Ok c pas grave 😢😭😭

[autumn ridge]

Yeah. It’s identical. They even leave in the warning message about getting it from not discord lol.

[blazing python]

they updated their website to steal my installer yesterday and left the messages about we don't have an official website in them 😆 they aren't that smart

[autumn ridge]

Ha! Very nice! Well done. Could name professor Oak “this game has no official site” if they circumvent this one lol.

[blazing python]

well when you open the game, the first 2 messages are saying we don't have a website. But people don't read either 🙂

[autumn ridge]

I read but figured it was fine and continued on my way. I think I did one gym on their sketchy shit lol. But then I thought I was missing debug because I didn’t get the proper one so I came here to check. But now I’ve learned debug is behind Pokédex.

[late bane]

the funnier thing is when you try to click the contact us part of the site it just links to the privacy policy

[autumn ridge]

All these YouTubers showing like. Pre fused starters and debug menus with no explanation are making shit mad difficult.

[onyx forge]

can confirm I did not notice this

I got it from reddit though so I technicaly followed the instructions

[late bane]

only way you can get prefused starters is already having a save then making a new game and debug mode has to be unlocked

[blazing python]

yeah from our pinned posts or side menu on reddit is fine

[autumn ridge]

Yeah I’ve learned this now that I came here and busted myself saying I recoded the debug menu back in lmao.

[weary glade]

Also apparently Megaman is the developer now

[blazing python]

you don't need debug to create a fused starter. Or you talking have 3 options being starters?

[late bane]

im just talking about how that option does not show up unless you have a save file already

[autumn ridge]

My starters weren’t fused and I never saw a choice to have them fused or not. I’ve not done a second file yet though.

[blazing python]

ah cause you said debug mode has to be unlocked at the end of your statement

[autumn ridge]

It’s behind Pokédex I meant isn’t it?

[late bane]

ah when i said the debug thing i was talking how you have to unlock debug not that you need debug for fused starters my bad

[blazing python]

I don't understand what you mean by behind pokedex

[autumn ridge]

I haven’t done the second save file yet if that choice for fused or not is there.

Like you gotta complete Pokédex to get debug.

[late bane]

you need to complete the base unfused dex without thinking about randomizers at all to get debug

[blazing python]

yeah but not to unlock the option I showed

[late bane]

to unlock the option megaman showed you need to have at least one other save file when you make a new game

[blazing python]

yup you can create a save in pallet town and start a new game right away

[autumn ridge]

Right right. Does the option you showed only show on second and later save files? Cause I’ve still only done my one.

So I’ll see it on my second and do it right then.

[blazing python]

duh what pokemon do you want me to add in next? haha jk

[late bane]

it only shows on files 2 and up as the dev wants you to play the way it was intended to be played first without the custom stuff

[flat lava]

hey what command do i need to use to request sprites, i wnat to request an bellossom/dhelmise fusion

[weary glade]

zigzagoon 😭🙏

[late bane]

check the pins of the suggestion channel

[autumn ridge]

But I’m here for the custom stuff haha.

[flat lava]

alr

[autumn ridge]

I’ve played every gen of Pokémon. I don’t need an intended play through anymore lol.

[weary glade]

I love how you added "jk" at the end

[late bane]

its not intended as in like you have to play this way its more like this is how the dev wants you to experiance the game on your first playthrough to kinda understand how things work before turning it up to 11

[autumn ridge]

I’d like a Rom that enforces nuzlocke gameplay elements.

[blazing python]

I do like how they put down "Mage Man" in another page. They can't even get that right

[late bane]

at this point make like brock the dev of the game

[weary glade]

Wait I forgot megaman is staff

[late bane]

i know of 3 fan games that have a nuzlocke option if you wanna talk about them in either #other-pokemon-games or my dms

[autumn ridge]

You could make the developer named “ThisSiteIsBullshit” lmao

[weary glade]

HAHA

[weary glade]

That is so funny

[autumn ridge]

Oh that’s neat!

[blazing python]

So is this subtle enough for my next update?

[weary glade]

Oohh

Directly mentioning the name of the website will definitely help

[blazing python]

Yeah I was being subtle about it, but I'm just calling them out now

[autumn ridge]

Is there an uninstaller anywhere or is binning and deleting them good enough?

[blazing python]

From our knowledge, deleting the folder is good enough.

but we aren't an antivirus 🙂

[autumn ridge]

Fair enough haha.

[blazing python]

no telling if they evolved their scam

especially since they create a save file in your app data folder

[autumn ridge]

So I should kill that file also? And I should not keep my save from there? Cause I’m at the second gym on their sketchy bullshit lol.

[warm stream]

Im trying to Install the game and it wont allow me to.

[blazing python]

up to you, but I don't trust anything created by them

[blazing python]

Did you check our pinned messages

[late bane]

idk but the way i look at downloading fan games is try to find a discord first before downloading in case i 1) need help with a part of the story or a puzzle and or 2) go to see if the cord has a more updated download version than the site i found

[autumn ridge]

Fair. I’ll probably kill it all.

Is there anything you’d like me to investigate in their files since I’ve already got it installed and the risk is taken?

[blazing python]

What sucks is if you even go to articles, Best Fan Made Pokemon Games, we are on the list. But the article links to the fake site

[autumn ridge]

Gotta start getting Megaman in some interviews to publically explain this and that site is sketchy shits.

[late bane]

its because these articles dont do research to see if they are linking official stuff they just want to link people to a download of the game and thats the first pne they can find lol

[blazing python]

Yeah I sent an email to them, but of course no response

[blazing python]

that is interesting. Sucks I have a meeting in 15 min or I would poke around

[weary glade]

he's a business man

[blazing python]

I need to push a new update to the installer to invalidate theirs

so today people are going to ask how to update

just to give you a heads up @weary glade lol

[warm stream]

I figured it out, thank you for pointing those out.

[autumn ridge]

No problem at all I totally understand! I wouldn’t be against leaving the files until later tonight if you’d find use in them.

[weary glade]

WHAT DO I TELL EM

[blazing python]

I rather you be safe, but thank you for the offer!

[blazing python]

redownload and use the new folder. Simple 🙂

[autumn ridge]

Sure thing! Will assassinate their files asap!

[weary glade]

👌

[autumn ridge]

Always willing to help out your project here. Holler any time.

[weary glade]

I'm sure people will not have any further issues, that never happens right?

[verbal timber]

60% of the time they have issues 100% of the time

[autumn ridge]

So an update is coming later today so should I wait to set things up properly?

I can kill the sketchy files whenever.

[blazing python]

yeah let me try making the update before my meeting really quick

just adding dynamic notices so I can give people a heads up without needing an app update

[autumn ridge]

No rush at all brotha! Don’t be late for me. I’m not worth it hahaha.

[tender sierra]

I have a question regarding tripple fusions. I can do them, but I was wondering if you can change the sprites of them. According to the internet there are alt sprites, but I cant change them in the pokedex (dont see anysprites when I try to change the sprites) nor found any in the files (might have overlooked them)
I also dont wanna mess with the files, cause I dont wanna break the game by acident. If anyone has any information that would be amazing.

[blazing python]

there is a bug right now where alt sprites are not working on triple fusions. you can change the default sprite, but not give it alt sprites

[tender sierra]

Ahhh. Thank you. Any knowledge on when this will be fixed?

[autumn ridge]

@blazing python Do you know where in appdata is their sketchy savefile?

[unkempt gale]

Quick question, I just installed infinite on my Mac, but don’t know the controls, as they are different from my OpenEmu launcher. Is there a place to create custom keybinds?

[blazing python]

Nope, but if you need more info you can find it here: #1195043740855832586 message

[autumn ridge]

Nevermind, I found it.

It wasn't even hidden, im just dumb.

[blazing python]

Press FN+F1

[unkempt gale]

Perfect, thank you sir. You had a great video explaining the download process. Appreciate you

[weary glade]

nice

[autumn ridge]

So when theres an update do you have to grab something new from discord orjust rerun the batch file?

[weary glade]

rerun the batch file

[autumn ridge]

Also, love the changes to the keybinding screen. Makes much more sense with the red notation now.

[blazing python]

The update I am making is for the app installer only

so not the batch file way of installing the game

[autumn ridge]

So I need to change my install method?

[blazing python]

Yeah I am updating this: [New App Installer](#tech-support message)

When I create the update, I will update the zip file to download

[tender sierra]

Thank you so much. That helps a LOT

[autumn ridge]

Ahh balls. I started doing it already, did I jump the gun?

[waxen venture]

What is the link for me to download and play this game please? I've tried reading to understand which my small brain has once again failed me on doing :>

[autumn ridge]

#tech-support message This takes you to the installer in this channel being updated today

https://discord.com/channels/302153478556352513/926866111948001341 This channel also has an install method and explanation

@blazing python For some reason I cant bind the A button on my controller to anything in infinitefusion. I'm not sure if its a me problem or a program problem. Wired xbox 360 and wired switch gamecube controller both had this problem.

[blazing python]

the game doesn't support controller rebinding

you have to use a third party app like JoyToKey or Steam to remap controller buttons

[autumn ridge]

That would explain it. I thought it did work because the analog sticks bind fine.

[blazing python]

v2.6 is now out

5 min before my meeting starts 🙂

[autumn ridge]

Literally just finished installing lmao. What do I do now to update is there just an update button in thelauncher I just got?

[blazing python]

Just redownload the zip and use the new installer folder. You don't need the old folder anymore.

[autumn ridge]

Ahhh okay.

[blazing python]

it will keep all your settings/game/saves intact. This is just an installer update

[autumn ridge]

Ahh so we dont get the red letters in keybindings yet? Darn

[novel quartz]

Sorry i had to record on phone

[turbid terrace]

Hey @novel quartz! 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.

[novel quartz]

Its not working at all ive tried reinstalling and all

[autumn ridge]

You can ignore the bot and wait for real help, it just triggers on keywords.

[novel quartz]

ty

[weary glade]

How long did you let it load?

[novel quartz]

a minute

[weary glade]

It can take minutes

[novel quartz]

but when the like screen of the pokemon fusing appears it also just freezes on that

[weary glade]

Then it might be your pc

[novel quartz]

i'll try letting it load for a while thanks for the help!

[weary glade]

Yeah if your PC doesn't have the resources necessary it will lag

[vivid eagle]

Where does the game's EXE or launcher install? I just used the installer and can't find it.

[weary glade]

In that same folder where you ran it

If you didn't get any files you probably got a disconnection error

You can check the pins in this message to check the fixes for installation issues

[vivid eagle]

Thanks! And is Preloaded the dynamic version?

[late bane]

no.

[weary glade]

No, dynamic is the one that's just named "game"

well i linked you an up to date process on intalling if you cared to read what i sent you

[sonic zenith]

I'm taking a look now, I'm just not very good with all this tech stuff so i'm a little slow.

[autumn ridge]

You can do it! Dont give up! I'm a stroke victim and I figured it out.

After entirely messing up first and installing malware lmao

[late bane]

that fake site is relentless

[autumn ridge]

It being the top google result doesn't help lmao.

[late bane]

its the top result because 1 there is no official website and 2 the game is so popular some person just wanted to profit on a games popularity lol. but we've found ways to combat it by having a new update that will actually call out the website when you launch the game no matter where you download from,

[autumn ridge]

Maybe we do need an official website.

I'm of course worried about the inevitable take down by nintendo if it gets much bigger than it is already.

[late bane]

maybe but that costs lots of money and it would have to be mannaged to insure the fake site would not claim the real official site to be a fake and the dev said we will just stick to this the reddit and pokecommunity

[autumn ridge]

Fair, I can see the value in that approach.

[late bane]

at this point i dont see a need for an offical site as all but the 1 have been taken down

[autumn ridge]

these youtubers that are the biggest advertisement of theproject need to link to the discord in their descriptions, or atleast the subreddit.

[late bane]

true.

[dark sand]

what folder has the entire list of all the custombattler fusions? the only folders i see are "indexed" which doesnt have all of them, and "CustomBaseSprites". i played a long time ago before they added 421+, so did they move them to a different location since then?

when i start a new game, it says that it has 100,000+ custom sprites and that seems to be the case, because the fusions i run into in the game aren't showing up in the "indexed" folder. however, when i add one to the "custombattlers" folder and start the game up, it moves it to the "indexed" folder. so where are all the others located at?

can send a vid of what im seeing for reference

[blazing python]

Graphics/CustomBattlers/indexed are where custom sprites are sorted

when you randomize a playthrough and select custom sprites only, that message doesn't actually download the sprites into your folder. Not really sure what it does, but doesn't download them locally

[fast bolt]

It just makes it so you won't run into autogens during your playthrough

[blazing python]

just the messaging makes it seem like it downloads them all for you 😅

[fast bolt]

The randomizer will only give you fusions that have customs

[fast bolt]

The game will download sprites automatically whenever you see a new mon as long as you have internet while playing. If you want ALL of the sprites with the newest version of the game, use the new installer located here.

?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

[dark sand]

I've been in the "graphics" folder digging around trying to find them, so I've done that.

I have been doing randomized only, so i will create a save without it and see what happens. if it doesnt download them locally, where does it pull them from? Would i be able to access that?

[dark sand]

I will try reinstalling it and I'll confirm if they show up in the "custombattlers" folder

[blazing python]

I tested this yesterday. Setting up the randomizer, doesn't download the sprites to your game folder.

As mentioned the game by default only downloads sprites as you encounter pokemon. If you want to download them ALL up front, you have to use our tool for that

It pulls sprites over the internet from our Sprite repo and puts them into your CustomBattlers folder in the appropriate index folder when you encounter a pokemon

[errant ridge]

[plush yacht]

Hey I have an issue regarding pokemon sprites, I started with squirtle and the picture of it won't show up on the pkmn menu any ideas?

[blazing python]

did you use our official guide to install the game?

[plush yacht]

The official guide I tried didn't work as it came up with line error 70

[blazing python]

that means you didn't uninstall your plugins before proceeding

[plush yacht]

A bit confused sorry

Wdym

[blazing python]

line error 70. It is a plugin error from not uninstalling joiplay and rpg maker before installing the plugins we provide

if you don't use the files we provide in our official guide you will get a lot of bugs like the one you see in your screenshot

and by official guide, I mean This one

[plush yacht]

Ok so I download everything officially and download joiplay and the plug in off the website?

[blazing python]

delete those asap

we do not have a website. The "website" has malware on it.

[plush yacht]

Joiplay.org?

[blazing python]

thought you meant infinite fusion website

[plush yacht]

Nah that was gotten legit

[blazing python]

joiplay also, the latest version does not work

[plush yacht]

Ok so everything I need is in the guide then?

[blazing python]

correct. It has links to everything you need

[plush yacht]

Brill thank you

[blazing python]

I made a video also in case you need a video example

[plush yacht]

So which version of joiplay am I downloading

[blazing python]

Look at step 3

[plush yacht]

And do I install the elite 4 fix or the regular

[blazing python]

eliite 4 fix is only when you get to the elite 4 because it breaks. For some reason only version 1.20.28 of RPG Maker work to beat the elite 4

[gritty wing]

Can someone help me download the game

[turbid terrace]

Hey @gritty wing! 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!

Any help?

[subtle barn]

Any tips for issues with RGSS script freezing?

[turbid terrace]

Hey @subtle barn! 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.

[subtle barn]

well guess the goes for v6

[blazing python]

Optimize your maps in joiplay. Long tap the game -> optimize maps

[blazing python]

yeah be patient. dont click on the screen or press buttons as the game is opening

[abstract bramble]

its been a while, how do i update the game?

[chilly cedar]

Depends on how old your game version is. If you start it up what does the title screen say for version?

[abstract bramble]

5.2.0

[chilly cedar]

I'm fairly certain you'd need to reinstall the game at that old of a version, I think your save file is okay however iirc.

on the steam deck*

[blazing python]

1. the box/party sprites for newly fused mons are invisible - This is a known issue. No fix atm other than restarting your game: Bug
2. the poison status effect does no end of turn damage - Was this against a clefairy/clefable?
3. the status indicator poison is cut off slightly on the top - Known issue: Bug

nvm just tried again and poison is working

I don't think it was magic guard but it may have been a weird sprite and I didn't recognize it

where did you get the game files from?

[valid timber]

@blazing python I downloaded it from "download" the one @chilly kayak sent. He wrote "IF lightweight Installer download"........is this the wrong one?

[blazing python]

Nope, this one is fine. Just validating

If you look at our pinned messages in this channel, we have performance tips
Performance Issues - Freezing? Lag? Bad Performance? [More Info](#tech-support message)

[valid timber]

So it could be the fact its on my secondary drive? I have 2 of the same NVMe sticks installed. One for main and secondary, would that still be an issue?

Also I looked at 5) which states something along the lines that try the preloaded and it gave me an error box.......

[late bane]

you need the sprites from the pins of this channel to use preloaded

[valid timber]

So I should be just using the "game" file?

So I should move them to my C drive and try it first?

[verbal timber]

either use the game application, or download the preloaded sprites

moving the files and trying to use game-preloaded again without the preloaded sprites won't change anything

[blazing python]

I like how you reference the instructions but you didn’t really try doing step 4 or 5. You went to straight opening preloaded 😅

Step 4 tells you to install sprites with the app installer
Step 5 says how to open preloaded and install the missing sprites

[true pagoda]

This may be an odd question but is it possible to get this running on an Ambernic handheld running either ArkOS or AmberElec?

[blazing python]

Only if it can open windows executables or run joiplay

[valid timber]

My apologies! I think I had gotten the wrong Sprite and that was also my fault for skipping steps. I am trying to get the full pack installed now. Sorry for the inconvenience

[craggy kite]

is there an update log for the launcher? like not for the game's updates, but the launcher updates

[random pine]

Hey, so in the Mac video you say it extracts to the folder with all the game files... Where do I get the game files?

[blazing python]

Yes there was one this afternoon

The read me in the installer folder provides a log of the changes

[craggy kite]

alr ty

[blazing python]

The description of the video has the link to the game files

[random pine]

When I click the mediafire, and google drive links it's just the .rar

[blazing python]

Yeah those are the game files. Are you looking for something different?

You download the files, extract them and then move them into WineSkin

[random pine]

No never mind, it was my unarchiver that was having issues sorry.

[fading portal]

@blazing python how can i fix the RGSS script from getting stuck? it making evolving pokemon a pain

[blazing python]

Where did you get the game files from? That never happens outside of when the game loads on startup unless there are other issues on your computer

[fading portal]

I got it from the downloads tab in the discord

[blazing python]

Then this is leaning towards your PC not being able to handle the game. You can look at our guides to setup the preloaded game but that is the only optimizations we can provide for the game from our end

You can install the app installer and install custom sprites and see if your performance gets any better as a first step

[tropic stratus]

how do i down load

[fading portal]

ill see what i can do the installer is also saying its disconnecting from internet when downloading sprites

[tropic stratus]

how do i down load

? is any one here

[blazing python]

Read the top of the channel

[blazing python]

Then that is pointing to the issue. This game requires a stable internet connection

[rigid rune]

how do i open the game using wine for chromebook linux i unzipped it and everything just need the wine command to open it

[blazing python]

It is just: wine Game.exe
assuming you downloaded the game from the zip in our Linux guide and you are in that folder already in your terminal

[rigid rune]

i did but all i get isApplication could not be started, or no application associated with the specified file.
ShellExecuteEx failed: File not found

all the data is there every pokemon sprite and all

im supposed to unzip it using linux whille its in my linux folder?

because the file is in my linux folder

[abstract zodiac]

thank you!

[blazing python]

Then you are not opening your terminal from the location your game is in. It is saying file not found for a reason.

When you open a terminal it opens from a specific location. Idk what it is on your computer. But you need to type in: cd <path of your game folder>

[rigid rune]

I have it in my linux file and my download file

[blazing python]

Idk what that means to be honest

[rigid rune]

I have it unzipped in both Linux and downloads

[blazing python]

This is Chromebook specific, no idea what that is

Chromebook doesn’t have a large player base so we don’t have instructions/guides for it. This ui or folder structure isn’t common with other OS

If you have Steam installed, I’d do it that way instead. Open the game through Steam

I’ll have to use the guide to download steam I’ll come back if I run into issues

[blazing python]

Yeah make steam do all the work 🙂 hopefully it is compatible with your computer. Steam is in beta on Chromebook

[muted zealot]

I'm not sure whats happening. The game was working 2 days ago. Anybody know whats happening?

It freezes to I press exit and this happens

I can open adjust keybinds but that's it

[blazing python]

Have you tried restarting your computer? Not shut down, since that just puts your computer to sleep/hibernate. Restarting should benefit your computer

[indigo oracle]

i asked in the wrong chat befor so im just puttin an sc of what i asked here

sorry wrong sc the second time

this is it

[blazing python]

What did you do to try and update?

[indigo oracle]

i was told to use that install or update thing

this

at least i think i was

[blazing python]

Correct. That is what is used to update the game. If you rerun that, can you send a screenshot of the black window when it finishes? Just to make sure there was no error

No harm in rerunning it

[indigo oracle]

the sc i sent was the second time running it

still want me to do it again

[blazing python]

Yeah I’m talking about the black window that opens when you run it

[indigo oracle]

ah

[blazing python]

It is basically saying you are missing this file, but it should populate if you missing it with that INSTALL_OR_UPDATE

[blazing python]

yeah so looks like it failed

[royal anchor]

I have a problem every time I encounter a battle it takes a long time to load when I defeat the Pokémon and when I run from the Pokémon.

[blazing python]

In your infinitefusion folder, do you see a folder named .git?

[blazing python]

Please read the top of our channel. Peformance tips are pinned to this channel

[royal anchor]

k

[indigo oracle]

no i see a mingit tho

[blazing python]

Should be here. If you don't see it, it is because it is a hidden file

[indigo oracle]

no idea what that means

[blazing python]

You can view hidden folders on your computer enabling this option here

[indigo oracle]

got it

[blazing python]

Now that you see the .git folder, delete the folder entirely and rerun INSTALL_OR_UPDATE

the git folder is locked for some reason, but deleting the folder to reset will solve that

[indigo oracle]

gotcha

agterwards i asume i launch the game and make sure its running smoothly

or is there more

[fading igloo]

the folder is read only, you cant change whats inside, you can just read it, you cant add things (same goes for the installer)

[blazing python]

Nope that should solve it, but you can double check by sending another screenshot of the black window to double check

[indigo oracle]

ngl i just closed it

[blazing python]

no worries, you can reopen the game and check it out

[indigo oracle]

fixed it

many thanks mr.megaman

[blazing python]

what error you getting?

[fading igloo]

can you send a screenshot of what the promopt writes?

you need to extract the zip folder

[waxen venture]

I feel like I'm being stupid I can't find the link to download the dynamic game could someone link it for me please?

[turbid terrace]

Hey @waxen venture! 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!

[fading igloo]

there is no link to a specific version, you download the game, you install the game and then you have the choice of a dynamic launcher or the preloaded launcher (which doesnt run by default, need some extra steps)

[blazing python]

If you read the first post in #downloads it explains this

[waxen venture]

Ahhh okay! thankyou

[fading igloo]

bruuh 😦 you cant expect that people get the idea to read something ... if you spend time in #gameplay-help you will know what i mean, people dont even read npc dialogues but want to speedrun the game 😄

[blazing python]

That is why you guide them in the right direction. If I were to have listened to the ppl that told me the same when I first joined the server I would have never made any of the guides here 😅

[fading igloo]

talking about cheat mode from #gameplay-help
make a button for cheat codes and if you click on it the launcher crashes intentionally with an error message: "enable cheat mode legit" xD

[native juniper]

i updated my custom sprites and now i cant start the game, can anyone help?

[turbid terrace]

Hey @native juniper! 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.

ok time to wait haha

[blazing python]

You have to install the game before you can link a folder…

[woeful bear]

from where though? i have not found it, it is very possible i am blind

[blazing python]

When the installer opens, select no.

Then you will have a big install button available to you

[woeful bear]

i download this?

[blazing python]

You said you kept getting game.exe not found. What was giving you that message?

[woeful bear]

not the one for android sry

copied wrong link

[woeful bear]

the installer that is found somewhere in this channel

[blazing python]

It asked you if you wanted to link a folder right?

[woeful bear]

no, it said "found your game folder"

but that was the right one when i looked at the one it chose

[blazing python]

Send a screenshot. This would solve your issue so much faster.

[woeful bear]

okay i will download it again really quick

[blazing python]

Because you are just trying to install the game right?

[woeful bear]

yes

before it tells something about the newest version

maybe i am using a older download link, i was wondering about that

[blazing python]

Yeah why are you selecting yes?

If you trying to install the game, select no

[woeful bear]

there is only ok i am pretty sure

[blazing python]

Yeah click OK

Then then where it asks Yes or No, select No

[blazing python]

Wait did you download this from a website or this discord?

[woeful bear]

from a google drive link from this discord

[blazing python]

Ok good

But you messed with it a lot so it is confused what version your game is 😅 but the messages go away now?

[woeful bear]

yea i clicked ok

now i have this:

[blazing python]

Ok so do this instead:

[woeful bear]

ohhh

now i think i got it lol

[blazing python]

1. Click installation menu
2. Click install game
3. Click Browse folder
4. Select your desktop. Not that installer folder. Just desktop
   5, click install game

You installed the game inside the installer folder for some reason. You can delete that after but following the instructions you will have the game on your desktop

[woeful bear]

okay thanks

i was just missing that i had to reselect a folder after i pressed "Install game"

[blazing python]

Yeah because you installed it once before, it was auto selecting the last place you installed

[woeful bear]

yeah probably

okay i got it working on PC now, thanks

on mobile i can't open apk from my files, i don't think there is an easy fix for that though 😅

[twilit heath]

so I installed the game via the file in the downloads chat and ran the install or upd file and downloaded it, but I can't find where it did anything from there?

[fading igloo]

probably the launcher had an error, run it again and screenshot when its done

[fading igloo]

all good, now run "game"

The popup if you click Download will take you to the website where to download it from. Download the RPG Maker XP file but don't extract. Just download.

Reopen the game on JoiPlay and select the "Choose" button this time. Select the RPG Maker XP file and it should work.

(message by @blazing python (i was too lazy to screenshot))

[weary glade]

Check the android guide, it has a fix for that at the end. You need to downgrade your RPGMPlugin version

[proven compass]

hi i qanted to ask a question because i was trying to play the game saince i istalled it but everytime i started after making my trainer and was going to do the intro i got kicked with this showing up?

[fading igloo]

your last save is from a too old version, open the savefile location and delete everything inside (do NOT delete the folder), then strt a new game

you have in your game folder a folder called "savefiles", open it, and delete everything you find inside
as said above, do NOT delete the folder

[proven compass]

okay thank you

I optimized the maps, but now this Is the only map I can see

i cant help with that, you have to wait for a person with the porygon icon next to its name

[cinder axle]

no problemo, It's already very nice to have helped me;)

[verbal timber]

question, where did you get the game from

mainly asking this to narrow down possibilities

[cinder axle]

The classic installer? like this one

[verbal timber]

yes but did you get it here or somewhere else?

Megaman [our tech lead] has noted that fake websites have started using their new installer without permission, so if you got it from anywhere other than this discord

if you got it here, then great; otherwise, you likely have something infested with malware/viruses or jank code

assuming the former, try visiting the top floor of a pokemon center, talking to the man in black, and having him fix the game

[cinder axle]

I'm going to look, I don't remember.

[sage goblet]

Lol, but i have the one from this guide to run the game in the first place :v

Why does the "fake game" from the fake website works better in quite any way?

[cinder axle]

So this site is a fraud ? "https://pokemoninfinitefusion.net/pokemon-infinite-fusion-download/"

[verbal timber]

yes

that is a fake website

[cinder axle]

damnit

[verbal timber]

you downloaded malware/viruses and or jank code

[cinder axle]

im kinda dumb

[verbal timber]

delete what you downloaded, birus scrub your pc, get a fresh install from this discord

note: your save may not be compatible

[sage goblet]

Yes, but it works better on my android and is visually more appealing unfortunately

we can not help you with game files that don't come from here

any issues you have will be yours to solve

[cinder axle]

it doesnt matter

[verbal timber]

ok, just giving that heads up as a note

we've had a few people get mad that they had to start fresh after getting so far in a fake save

[sage goblet]

It was 95% compatible with my old save. Only one or two Pokemons went missing, lel

(On pc)

[verbal timber]

you'd have to have the man in black fix the game if the save does work with the files from here

I saw it^^

[fading igloo]

then idk whats the problem . i dont even play on mobile and have found your issue already

[stray acorn]

So idk what I did or what but the game froze when I went to enter the Pokemon center in Cerulean city and even after closing and restarting the game the sound is completely gone and the guy to fix the game up by the wonder trade didn't fix it and I tried seeing if I needed to update the game but the updater is having an error cause it says I'm missing the 7z.dll file to access the archive even though it's there and I never deleted it or moved it.

[fading igloo]

just making sure, where did you get the game from? from a website or this discord?

[stray acorn]

This discord

[fading igloo]

what game version are you running?

[tranquil cipher]

Was the sound gone, or just the music?

[stray acorn]

Version 6.0.5

All the sound both music and sound effects.

[tranquil cipher]

Hm, maybe try reinstalling? Could've had an unstable connection when downloading and a file got missed

Check the pins here for the installer

[stray acorn]

Maybe, idk why it only just had this problem though when it was working perfectly till now.

we dont have a website .....

infinitefusion.net does NOT belong to us

[bronze ibex]

oh ...

ima uninstall then...

[fading igloo]

be happy the game doesnt work .. delete everything you got from there, run a virus scan

Delete everything from it and run your anti malware scan

then use this:

Ayyy

[burnt igloo]

Okay perfect so do i drag my save file out of folder then delete it and reinstall btw holy fast staff

[fading igloo]

NOOOOOO

broooo

dont delete the save file

[burnt igloo]

yeah i said drag it out of the folder

[fading igloo]

just the game folder
your save file is somewhere else storen on your pc

[tranquil cipher]

Don't touch your save files

There's no need to lol

[fading igloo]

the savefile folder is just a shortcut

[burnt igloo]

ohhh sorry my dumbass thought a shortcut was the folder lmaooo

shots tysm

[fading igloo]

you can easily delete it, dont worry, your save file is on your C drive in a hidden folder (appdata)

[burnt igloo]

yeah easy i just check thanks

[tranquil cipher]

Ahhh, yeah now I see the misunderstanding

[burnt igloo]

holy to delete it its at 250k items lmao this gonna be a while huh

[fading igloo]

most are the images from the sprites 😄

[burnt igloo]

WTFF IT FINISHED IN A MINUTE THANK UU

[fading igloo]

😄

[burnt igloo]

the download says virus deteted do i have to turn off firewall?

[fading igloo]

wait, the download says you have a virus?

[fading igloo]

or did the windows firewall come up with possibly malicious download?

[burnt igloo]

this

[blazing python]

My app doesn’t have a certificate that cost 600 usd every year so it gets flagged by windows 😅

[fading igloo]

#tech-support message << this

windows doesnt like uncertified downloads 😄

[blazing python]

I believe if you click on it, it will give the option to download anyway from your browser

[blazing python]

What is funny is even if I buy it, it says it then has to earn reputation like a video game to become trusted

[fading igloo]

(and then you can buy fake reputation from suspicious organisations)

[fading igloo]

however .. the installer is fully trustable as long as its from this discord

[burnt igloo]

whats the file location of my save folder?

[fading igloo]

somewhere hidden on your C drive .. you shouldnt care about, the game pulls the files always from the same place

[burnt igloo]

uploading it to the launcher now

[fading igloo]

means if you start the game launcher you can continue your old file

[burnt igloo]

it is asking me to find it though

[fading igloo]

no, it asks for your game folder

[burnt igloo]

in the youtube tutorial though it says to locate my save file?

[fading igloo]

it shouldnt ... the launcher just asks for your game folder if you have one

[burnt igloo]

Ok ima trust the process

[turbid patio]

There is an error, Pokémon does not appear

[fading igloo]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/758159434433560638.gif?v=1

[fading igloo]

just checking back .. the video you watch is from "megaman exe"?

[burnt igloo]

yep

[fading igloo]

megaman is sus ... 😄

[blazing python]

I dont even click yes in my tutorial

I rewatched and I say click yes if you have the game installed already if you want to link your game folder together to pull in your information. But I don’t say anything about looking for your save

[fading igloo]

thats what im saying, it asks for the game folder location, not the savefile

[burnt igloo]

bro ngl im dumb asf pretty ass when it comes to this shit so shots i've done everything now i did download the new sprites should i upload them into the launcher or with downloading it comes with them?

[blazing python]

The game automatically installs sprites as you encounter Pokemon

[fading igloo]

the launcher has - after installing - an option to download the sprites

[blazing python]

If you want to download them all up front click Sprite Menu and click install custom sprites

[fading igloo]

but as megaman said, you dont need them, the game download sprites as you play and encounter them

[burnt igloo]

yeah okok i just super ass internet and would rather have it offline as im going to uk next week so plane trip etc should i download preload sprites?

install*

[fading igloo]

in that case yes

preloaded works completely offline

[burnt igloo]

Okay Perfect

[fading igloo]

once the game is installed, the launcher gives you option to install all sprites, the custom sprites or the preloaded sprites .. in your case all sprites

[devout idol]

Can i change the controls? I dont like using arrow keys>

[fading igloo]

F1

[devout idol]

thank you

[burnt igloo]

so once preloaded sprites are finish installing do custom sprites too?

[fading igloo]

just all at once

[blazing python]

Yeah preloaded is ALL sprites

[burnt igloo]

okok easy

[fading igloo]

it might take a while since its around 2gb sprites only

[blazing python]

If it fails due to your internet, I suggest doing it one option at a time

Like install custom sprites first then auto gen second to break it up into smaller parts

[burnt igloo]

okay perfect thank you! im so keen use were mad helpful

Is it allowed to send fusion bot bug report in #1142871804269052004 ? (Sorry couldn't find better channel to ask)

[tranquil cipher]

Fusion bot bug?

[robust moat]

It's telling that registeel, regirock,regice, necrozma and more pokemons are not existing

[tranquil cipher]

The bot is outdated, doesn't have the 6.0 mons

Check the wiki:

?tag locations

[pearl magnet]

Here are the different locations of Pokemon (Classic and Modern), TM's, Legendaries and others! https://infinitefusion.fandom.com/wiki/Locations

[robust moat]

I meant showsprite command

Like showsprite mon1/mon2

Showsprite necrozma

[sweet skiff]

what is going on with my game, i just deleted it and redownload it from here and everytime i try do a new game and get to the starters it get me to this error

[robust moat]

It will not work

[tranquil cipher]

Yanmega doesn't have the 6.0 mons, if the command involves 6.0 mons, it's not gonna work

[tranquil cipher]

What game version? 6.0.5?

[robust moat]

So is it allowed to report?

[tranquil cipher]

It's not a bug

[sweet skiff]

yes

[robust moat]

What about #game-suggestions

[fading igloo]

go in your game folder, open the savefile folder and delete everything inside that (do NOT delete the folder)
you have an incompatible save file (from before 5.1) thats why the game pulls out the error

[tranquil cipher]

Someone has to manually update the bot. It used to be just one person, but they're working on it

[tranquil cipher]

It is not an unknown issue, so no

[sweet skiff]

ok

[robust moat]

Eh

[fading igloo]

i have no idea what concerns you, but the showsprite command works as intended

[sweet skiff]

i see how that could be the fix bec a file was croupted before i played today and it went back to a file last save before all of this happend

[robust moat]

Necrozma,3 Regis, other 6.0 mons

[fading igloo]

yeah, those 4 doesnt have a dex number (in yanmega) but most others work

[sweet skiff]

Okay I can't I randomize now

[fading igloo]

just start a 2nd file

[blazing python]

you have to create a save file in pallet and create a second save

[verbal timber]

me and someone else have kind of taken over mini updating things; but its a slog of work

[sweet skiff]

Oh ok

[verbal timber]

we're just making a google doc list, figuring out what bot stuff is fine as is and what needs updating to match the wiki

since i know the wiki is updated

[indigo osprey]

my game was running fine the last few days but when I got on last night the sprites were taking forever to download and exiting and entering buildings was taking forever.
