tech-support

[quaint imp]

yeah this laptop has less space than my phone so it's my only option unfortunately lol

i'll try that ty!

[blazing python]

When you opened the game, did it say thousands of sprites were imported?

I would assume no by your issue. This would mean you put the sprites in the wrong folder

[leaden robin]

This is what I'm talking about. I have the latest version. I downloaded the sprites pack from the download menu. It did say that but I'm still getting this.

[blazing python]

ah ok you used the app

[leaden robin]

It said 127770 sprites were downloaded

[blazing python]

Do you have the option Download Sprites turned on from your in game settings?

[leaden robin]

It is turned on

I've even tried turning it off and turning it back on

[blazing python]

? mark sprite would only occur if you cant connect to our sprite repo and download missing sprites

you have custom sprites downloaded, but not every pokemon has custom sprites

[fading igloo]

nincada/gible has a custom

[leaden robin]

Can I get it with the offline version?

[blazing python]

did you use the app to open the game also?

or did you open it from double clicking the .exe?

[leaden robin]

I've been using the .exe do I have to open it from the installer app

[blazing python]

I suspect you installed the sprites into a different game folder you have

[leaden robin]

I put the most recent sprite pack into the graphics folder like the instructions said.

[blazing python]

manually?

[leaden robin]

Yes

[blazing python]

the app does everything for you, if you did something manually afterwards, you messed it up

[leaden robin]

After opening the app?

Because I had the app closed when I moved the sprites into the graphics folder. And downloaded the sprite pack

[blazing python]

yeah but you didn't put them in there correctly. Plus if you used the app, it already gives you all the up to date sprites.

The sprite pack is older, so you basically tried overriding the current up to date sprites with older sprites

[leaden robin]

They were supposed to stay in the custom battles folder right? Because I moved that folder to the graphics folder

[blazing python]

can you share a screenshot?

but again you are moving older sprites into your game folder too

If you press Install Custom Sprites in the app, it will fix this btw. It cleans up your Custom Sprite folder before installing the sprites

[leaden robin]

Do I remove it and then try to download custom sprites

Or do I just try to download custom sprites

[blazing python]

If you delete the whole CustomBattlers folder, before using the app, it will be faster

It does this already, but it is slower than you deleting it yourself

[leaden robin]

Is that for the offline version, because I don't have a steady internet connection. I can try and get the custom sprites downloaded but I would end up using my phones wifi

[blazing python]

The offline version is named Preloaded. We were just talking about Custom Sprites

Preloaded has another 2 gb of sprites to download.. 😅

[leaden robin]

Whats the difference because I have been using the .exe

And it has worked without using the internet

[blazing python]

Preloaded is only if your computer can't handle the regular version or you want to play offline

Regular version is the way the game was intended to be played and installs sprites as you play as long as you have stable internet

If you have no internet, that is why you are getting the question marks. Well one reason, there are other reasons this can happen as well.

[leaden robin]

I've tried to download the custom sprite pack

[blazing python]

that is only a fraction of our sprites

[blazing python]

To save you the headache, and further hassle, you should use our files from here:

• Prepackaged Tech-Support Game Files: [More Info](#tech-support message)

It contains everything already setup for you. I don't really trust your internet 😅 so it could create further issues with the installer. But this has everything ready to go. You dont need to add anything additional

[somber grail]

megaman

after downlading the google drive folder

do i still need the app

cuz i deleted the previous folder whixh had it

yet i can still run the game

[leaden robin]

Does the preloaded have the custom sprites or is the something for only the .exe

[blazing python]

No not required, although it does notify you when sprites and new game updates are made

[blazing python]

Preloaded just means your game doesn’t use the internet. It takes the sprites from your local computer.

It requires all sprites custom and non custom to work. Preloaded is just the .exe name with the settings to get sprites locally.

The files I gave you in the video have everything in it so preloaded will work just fine.

[leaden robin]

Is that the one that needs the custombatteler folder for?

[blazing python]

I think you are overthinking it

[leaden robin]

This is what I'm talking about

[blazing python]

Yeah I’m saying you don’t need that anymore

The files from the video I linked have everything in them including that

[leaden robin]

I'm just confused

[blazing python]

Click the link below:

• Prepackaged Tech-Support Game Files: [More Info](#tech-support message)

Download the files from the video, extract, and you can play the game. Sprites and everything are already included.

You don’t need anything else

[leaden robin]

Those are the files that I downloaded

[blazing python]

Then you are good to play the game after you extract them

[leaden robin]

Then what is the sprite pack for?

[somber grail]

can u play on keyboard and mouse

[blazing python]

The game on its own installs custom sprites as you encounter pokemon.

Sprite packs let you download all custom sprites all at once vs 1 by 1

Preloaded requires custom sprites + non custom sprites to be installed. Non custom sprites are not included in the sprite pack. That is why we call them preloaded sprites because it contains both. Preloaded is just an option to get sprites from your computer and not the internet.

The game regardless which .exe you open use whatever sprites you have downloaded

All this info, players don't need to really worry about at all 😅

[verbal timber]

keyboard or controller

you don't need your mouse

[somber grail]

im clicking keys but nothing happens

[verbal timber]

^

[blazing python]

these are our keybinds. Press F1 if you want to change them

[verbal timber]

if the game lets you

sometimes, for some people

it just goes

https://tenor.com/view/no-i-dont-think-i-will-gif-23864982

[somber grail]

ok lol

[verbal timber]

i wish i was joking

[blazing python]

Yeah I've seen some people install the game for the first time and their keybinds are blank lol not sure how that worked

[dawn fossil]

is this a modified version of emerald ported to pc in some kind of way?

as the map data is Hoenn region

and all the sound effects are GEN 3

[fading igloo]

just leave this server ... fr ... several people told you in #general already that its NOT a rom

[dawn fossil]

i know its not a rom file

i enjoy this game

[fading igloo]

neither any other modded/hacked version of an existing game

[dawn fossil]

i am curious about the structure of this fangame

thats all

[fading igloo]

its a fanmade game made in RPG maker xp with pokemon essentials

[dawn fossil]

you however, are not, and are not in a position to tell me

[dawn fossil]

but is it a modified version of a PC port of pokemon emerald

the map data is Hoenn

[fast bolt]

No

It is a brand new game

There is no PC port of emerald

[dawn fossil]

there are, many

[fast bolt]

No there are not

[dawn fossil]

yes

[fast bolt]

There are rpgmaker games based on emerald

[dawn fossil]

this game has used some gen 3 game as a base.

that i know for a fact

this game has used some gen 3 game as a base.

[fading igloo]

the pokemon movesets are USUM
the BST are from B2/W2

[fast bolt]

That data is in pokemon essentials

The rpgmaker code

[dawn fossil]

oh is that some resource library

that explains it

[fast bolt]

You can use pokemon essentials to make fangames

[dawn fossil]

i was confused on how someone had ported emerald to pc then made a game from it

[fading igloo]

not like i said that before ...

[dawn fossil]

right, makes more sense now

[dawn fossil]

you didnt

you just said its not a rom. end of conversation

[fading igloo]

damn, i must be imagine things that dont exist then

[blazing python]

This is getting #off-topic . If you want to read more into Pokemon Essentials, you can go here: Link . Other than that, we don't have anything else we can provide you with.

[fallow rain]

sorry, I directed them to here for that question, thought it was on a more tech-related base.

[blazing python]

No worries, the question itself is fine, but seems to be escalating a little bit

[fallow rain]

fair fair :p

back to gen! o7

[royal delta]

yo I just dowels the Pokémon fusion zip and the sprite pack, what do I do now?

[fierce plover]

ok i have an issue with my character continuously running in 1 direction and i can't stop it

[fading igloo]

you wouldnt have needed the sprite pack, the game downloads spirtes as you encounter them

[royal delta]

oKay, but I'm still lost after that lol

[fading igloo]

i know that error but i cant say what it caused .. or how to fiux ..

[fading igloo]

extract the game zip folder and run the bat file inside

[blazing python]

Lightweight Installer:

• Written + Video Guide: [Guide](#tech-support message)

Use our guides

[blazing python]

This is usually because you have a controller connected to your computer

unplug it 🙂

[fierce plover]

all i have connectd to my laptop is my charger

[blazing python]

something outside the game is causing it. Could be key is stuck. Even someone's phone charging to the computer has caused this issue before

[fierce plover]

oh

[fading igloo]

disable bluetooth and everything that has a wireless connection to the pc 😄

[royal delta]

thank you for that video! Is there a way to play on mobile or same process?

[turbid terrace]

Hey @royal delta! 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.

[fading igloo]

[royal delta]

ahhh, thank you

[torpid iris]

im having trouble running the preloaded version of the game

[blazing python]

You need to set it up before you can use

[fading igloo]

dont run the preloaded, run game.exe

[torpid iris]

default works but the loading times are like 20x longer :[

[blazing python]

Guide: Link

[torpid iris]

thanks ill check that out rn

[oak wharf]

Is there somo wya I could download all the sprites tab are all in the game currently

[blazing python]

To save you the headache since you have been having issues for a while.
Click the link below:

• Prepackaged Tech-Support Game Files: [More Info](#tech-support message)

This contains the full game with full sprites. Download the files from the video, extract, and you can play the game without needing to download/touch anything else

[sterile pivot]

will preloaded always take a long time to load up?

[blazing python]

Yup, that is by design

you are preloading all sprites before playing the game. There are over 300k sprites in the game

[sterile pivot]

how long does it usually take to load up?

[blazing python]

for me 20-30 seconds, for others longer. Depends on your computer

[sterile pivot]

ok thx

[verbal timber]

also loading as much of the game in general as possible

[torpid iris]

so preloading is an offline version it seems

[blazing python]

Yeah a whole game cache

[verbal timber]

yes

[torpid iris]

is there anything im missing out with that version?

[verbal timber]

no

[blazing python]

preloaded only bugs

and you dont get sprite corrections

unless you are constantly installing sprites on your own

[torpid iris]

ic so basically each update i have to update the sprites myself

[blazing python]

Yup

[torpid iris]

mm thanks

[fading igloo]

you just need to doenload the latest sprite packs

[blazing python]

there is also a bug where you can't see any sprites in your party and PC so depends if you like that

[fading igloo]

and they release monthly

[torpid iris]

are they working on a fix rn?

[blazing python]

been happening for months, not sure

[torpid iris]

the game did say that there was an option that made all the fusion party sprites the same or something

[fading igloo]

DNA icons

[blazing python]

yeah you can turn the sprite icons into DNA icons instead, but most ppl like seeing the sprites

[torpid iris]

icic

[blazing python]

Preloaded is really only useful if your computer/internet is slow or want to play 100% offline.

The regular game is much more preferred.

[verbal timber]

instructions unclear, plays ancient version of the game that is 2-3 years old

[torpid iris]

are there any other changes to the regular game other than manual updates and the sprite bug?

[fading igloo]

no, its the same game, just a different launcher

[torpid iris]

alr i just finished all the steps in the doc

if any updates are made to the game / sprites i can do it all through here right

[blazing python]

Yeah you can always just uncheck the box

Also if it is unchecked, make sure to turn on download sprites from in game settings

[torpid iris]

is that a quicker way to get that done instead of doing it through the sprite menu?

[blazing python]

Like to uncheck the box?

[fading igloo]

no, but the game connects to the sprite source and check if there are any sprites you dont have yet

on every new encounter

[torpid iris]

alr so thats exclusively for running the regular version then

[blazing python]

yeah sprite menu is fastest way to download sprites.

The other option is download a huge zip, extract it, move it to a folder. Ppl mess this up all the time also. That is why I made the app in the first place.

[torpid iris]

gotcha ill do all the update stuff in that app from now on

[fading igloo]

as said, you only need to download the sprite packs which are released monthly

the app updating is more often 😄

[torpid iris]

so the regular version is constantly adding new sprites via the options while the preloaded one needs the app to pick up the big monthly packs after unchecking the box

[blazing python]

Regular version gets sprites installed in game by default as you encounter Pokemon.

Preloaded only gets sprites if you do them manually with the sprite menu.

Checkbox only determines if you want to open regular vs preloaded.

[sterile pivot]

haii

i need hewp

[blazing python]

What issues are you having?

[sterile pivot]

im confused about downloading the game

im on pc

what i have to do?

[sterile pivot]

i dont need an emulator?

[blazing python]

nope, this isn't a rom game

[sterile pivot]

oohh

okie

is it safe?

im still a lil scared

thanks btw 😊

[blazing python]

Yeah I developed the app myself

[sterile pivot]

ohh

nice

[blazing python]

I just don't pay microsoft $800 a year to verify the app 😅

if it was cheaper I would lol

[sterile pivot]

ohh xD

i downloaded the zip

[fading igloo]

best price 799.99 xD

[blazing python]

I did find some places quoting $400, but that is still $400 more I want to pay haha

[sterile pivot]

@blazing python can i ask another question? sorry if it is dumb and sorry for keeping asking

[blazing python]

yeah no worries

[sterile pivot]

i scanned the exe file and that appears, sorry for having still scanned

but i wanted to be sure

is false positive?

[blazing python]

Bkav Pro is notorious for having false positives if you google them and research the results

[sterile pivot]

yeah i saw

[fading igloo]

if it was true, around half a millions users would have a virus

[blazing python]

same with Secure Age, but the other big names below verify that it is undetected

[sterile pivot]

oh

right

thanksss

sorry i wanted to be sure

yeah also windows defender said nothing

i opened the app

what i have to do now?

[fading igloo]

install game on the left, choose the desktop

[sterile pivot]

okie im installing

can i play with a controller?

im scared i did a mess

[verbal timber]

you can

[sterile pivot]

is it normal that its locked here?

i clicked and pressed enter tho

[blazing python]

yeah

you want our guide?

[verbal timber]

xbox - works by default [barring nonsense]
ps - works by default [barring nonsense]

[sterile pivot]

idk maybe

xD

[blazing python]

Guide Link

You are on step 6

[sterile pivot]

so when the download is done the window close?

[blazing python]

Yup

[sterile pivot]

okie imma wait

thanks again, imma let you know if everything is okie

[blazing python]

Do you see a blinking line in your black window on the bottome left

[sterile pivot]

yes

[blazing python]

ok good. That means it is running. If you didn't that means you paused it

[sterile pivot]

okiee

btw congratulations for the game

i wanted to download it because i saw a stream

[blazing python]

Yeah Frog did a good job on it 🙂

[sterile pivot]

i hope nothing bad happens, because nintendo is dumb

[blazing python]

nah many fan made games out there

they usually take offense when you make money off of it

[sterile pivot]

but they closed fan games tho :c

[blazing python]

or they trying to use the same idea

[fading igloo]

as long as frogman doesnt make money out of it or use the copyrighted sprites, it shouldnt be easy to get it down

[sterile pivot]

i hope

its sad to see emulators getting closed tho

like citra, yuzu, drastic, pizzaboy etc...

[fading igloo]

yeah, this game doesnt use emulator

[sterile pivot]

yeah

[fading igloo]

unless youre on linux, then you have a windows emulator .. but thats a legit one 😄

[blazing python]

yuza was also costing them a lot of money since zelda hit like over 1 mil downloads. so that is 1 mil units less in their pocket

[sterile pivot]

i didnt paid for windows

lol

idk another person did it on my pc

btww

the game is installed

[fading igloo]

then youre free to play, have fun fusing 🙂

[sterile pivot]

thanksssss

[fading igloo]

if you run into anny errors in the game, you cn always come back for advice and solutions 🙂

[sterile pivot]

what release mean

[fading igloo]

supposed to be the release notes

[sterile pivot]

ohh

[blazing python]

your monitor is a little smaller so it didn't adjust size lol

[sterile pivot]

oh xD

[blazing python]

but if you click it, it lists the changes with each version of the game

[sterile pivot]

what i have to click for opening the game

[blazing python]

you can click the big play button on the app you closed

[fading igloo]

"game"

[blazing python]

and it will open it for you as well

[fading igloo]

or on the installer the big PLAY button 😄

[sterile pivot]

okay imma see

yayyyy

it worksssss

thanksss now imma playyy

[fading igloo]

@blazing python whats missing here? 😄

[fading igloo]

😄

[sterile pivot]

@blazing python is it normal that it laggs a lilttle little?

btw the game is super funnn

im loving it

[blazing python]

lag just depends on your computer and internet. If you install sprites, performance is a bit better

[sterile pivot]

ohh

how can i download them

[blazing python]

the app has a sprite menu where you can install custom sprites

[sterile pivot]

okie

i can also play without internet?

[blazing python]

not by default

youd have to install every single sprite and open the preloaded version of the game

[sterile pivot]

whats the preloaded version?

[blazing python]

just lets you play offline

same game, just different settings to not use the internet

[sterile pivot]

ohh

i think imma play the normal one

thanks again

@blazing python soo, i opened the pokedex and while i was watching sprites an error appeared and the game crashed

i think its because i dont have all sprites?

[fading igloo]

youre supposed to use left/right arrow keys t switch between sprites

up/down just crashes the game

[sterile pivot]

oh

why?

[fading igloo]

who knows ...

[blazing python]

bug in the code

[sterile pivot]

ohh

okie

[blazing python]

It has to do with the way it randomizes the alt sprites, but the info not needed here 😅

[sterile pivot]

idk why but the walking speed was faster before

now its normal

[fading igloo]

did you press Q?

or shift?

[sterile pivot]

maybe?

what does those buttons do?

[fading igloo]

q speeds up the game, shift lets you run

[sterile pivot]

oooohh

okiee thanks

im doing everything i can lol

How to update game version

[fading igloo]

run the install_or_update.bat file in your game folder
if you dont have that, you need a fresh install, the safe file would be unaffected

[unborn briar]

Just downloaded the rar, but it didn't have a secondary infinite fusion folder for the rar to extract into, is that normal?

[blazing python]

Show a screenshot of what you have

If you got it from my YouTube video, it is already the latest version so you don’t need to update.

If not, I have no idea what rar you are talking about

[unborn briar]

Is from the video yeh

[blazing python]

Yeah for Mac. Did you follow along with the video?

You need to install the unarchiver and use that to extract the rar

You need to follow the video step by step or it won’t work. Mac takes a lot more to install than any other device

[unborn briar]

Am trying to go through it step by step, that's why I paused once I realized my screen wasn't looking like the video

Just waitin' for the unarchiver to do its thing now

[quaint imp]

for applying the custom sprites: i know it opens the game at one point to finish updating
is it normal for this point to take over 5 hours? not sure if it is supposed to automatically close at some point during this process

nevermind my cat just stepped on the keyboard and it changed to a screen saying the sprites were added lol

[fading igloo]

usually not, but that also depends on the performance of your computer .. but everything over 10 minutes is not normal ... did you add the the custom sprites manually or with the app installer?

oh, typical error of not pressing enter 😄

[quaint imp]

i used the app installer i think it was done but i just didn't realize lol

yes hahaha

i was away from the computer for a while and just had it open while i was gone

They are on Mac, so the fix won’t work for them

[fading igloo]

well, internet should work the same way, doesnt it?

[blazing python]

But linking the guide to install the app installer doesn’t help

It has internet tips but the post is all about getting the app

But either way they don’t need to run the updater on Mac

[fading igloo]

the last 4 points arent about the app installe,r and theyre also some good tips 😄

[fading igloo]

any way .. i think that also needs your attention:

[odd dove]

So... Your gonna laugh

[blazing python]

What version of rpg maker and joiplay do you have on your phone?

[odd dove]

My brain wasn't braining

[blazing python]

You didn’t press a button?

[fading igloo]

pressing a key fixed it? 😄

[odd dove]

I accidentally didn't give rpg permission 😂

[fading igloo]

ah okay 😄

[blazing python]

You blocked yourself lol

[unborn briar]

Restarting the computer seemed to help, am on step 4 of the google doc atm https://docs.google.com/document/d/19p7WSql5LJQwKqEhwFJp868IMXaZFrLLx1UE9oqoVwI/edit

Edit: Step 4 worked, am now on step 5

[odd dove]

Working now thanks so much for your patience.

[fading igloo]

restart the pc does magic again 😄

[blazing python]

Step 1 gave you the prior issue?

[fading igloo]

have fun fusing 🙂

[unborn briar]

I think so, though 2, 3, and 4 seemed to go off without a hitch

[blazing python]

Step 1 of the Mac guide is also a git command that returns the unexpected disconnect error. So seems like 100% a network issue when ppl get the error

[quaint imp]

dumb question but how do i open the installer/launcher again?

[fading igloo]

the megaman icon? whereever you downloaded the tip folder

[blazing python]

You should have a folder named InfiniteFusionApp with an exe with the same name

[fading igloo]

(tho, little hint - right mouse button and add it to taskbar)

[blazing python]

I hope I can fix that error with the new setup for the app

[quaint imp]

ohh found it i forgot that i had originally had it in a different folder ty!

[fading igloo]

add it to the taskbar so you dont have to search for it 😄

[quaint imp]

it is done lol ty!

[unborn briar]

Got Warning: macOS's Gatekeeper has been disabled for this Cask Is this an issue? (Also noticed it in the video)

[blazing python]

No, wine and WineSkin are all trusted software. A lot of ppl don’t like what Gatekeeper chooses to block and not block

[fading igloo]

note: gatekeeper is windows defender on mac
totally random 😄

[unborn briar]

Ahhh ok, makes sense!

TBH I'm tech illiterate and wouldn't be surprised if I managed to wire all my money to a nigerian prince

[molten estuary]

Im not sure what happened but I downloaded from discord and my files are all messed up. I had to manually create the folders for indexed because it only had 1 and 42 in it. Also seem to be missing base sprites ams when I boot up the game the sprites wont index at all. Is there any way to fix this without having to completely redownload and reinstall the game?

[fading igloo]

more likely you wire all your money to microsoft ... just that mac is apple .. 😄

[fading igloo]

the folders are usually created when you encounter the pokemon in the game, the game connects to the game repo,m download the sprites for the encountered pokemon and creates all itself while you play

[molten estuary]

Im using predownloaded

[fading igloo]

this is the main issue:
Disable OneDrive, this breaks the game, saves, and much more. -> Guide

secondary issue is the internet cant connect to the repo
Unexpected disconnect? -> [Guide]( #tech-support message)

[fading igloo]

you cant play preloaded if you dont have any sprites at all, what version are you running?

[graceful silo]

So I installed the Sprites but they still dont work.....

[molten estuary]

Newest version, already downloaded the sprites and put thm into the custombattlers folder but they wont index

[graceful silo]

Same

They wont show up in my game

Wait

I think its cause Ive been running the Pre Load

💀

[fading igloo]

@molten estuary @graceful silo
did you extract the sprite pack and merged the custombattlers from the sprite pack with the custombattlers in your graphics folder?

[molten estuary]

No, im realizing I didnt merge I put the whole folder in

[fading igloo]

thats the issue, you only need the custombattlers folder form the sprite pack

everything else can be deleted

[molten estuary]

Thank you, clearly technology is still not a strong point of mine

[graceful silo]

Even bigger problem

Now my game keeps crashing

[fading igloo]

because you started the preloaded launcher without all the sprites

[graceful silo]

I had the sprites installed

Now I’m using the actual game.exe

[fading igloo]

you have the custom sprites installed

[graceful silo]

Yes

[fading igloo]

the preloaded launcher needs the custom AND the AI generated

[graceful silo]

It should’ve already had all that

I used the EXE to install the sprites

[fading igloo]

yeah, but just the custom sprites, and not the AI generated

[graceful silo]

Now that I’m using Game.EXE everything works but it keeps occasionally crashing

[molten estuary]

Im stuck on a black screen now, welp

[turbid terrace]

Hey @molten estuary! 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

[fading igloo]

it shouldnt crash usually

[graceful silo]

Weird

[molten estuary]

I think im missing the ai sprites

[fading igloo]

you installed 127k sprites, give the game a few minutes to load

[unborn briar]

Computer's overheating a bit so I miiiiight need to switch to the preloaded, but otherwise it seems to be working, thanks for the help!

Also is it normal for the resolution to look a lil crispy (Like even considering it is pixel art, it feels like there's some sorta compression shenanigans)?

[molten estuary]

Wow, my bad. I got impatient appearnetly it just started lol

[fading igloo]

you would also need the preloaded sprites to run the preloaded launcher, even on mac

[unborn briar]

I think I already do, like there's already all the fusion sprites in these files

[molten estuary]

And now I have an error screen, this is a roller coaster

[fading igloo]

did you also start the preloaded launcher?

[fading igloo]

interesting ... tho, im not familiar with mac and its install methods, so i cant say what megaman told you to download 😄

[molten estuary]

Yes

[fading igloo]

thats why it crashes .. as explained above, you dont have the preloaded sprites to run the preloaded launcher

just start the normal game.exe

[molten estuary]

It file it says is missing is in fact not missing as well

[unborn briar]

It took like 5-10 minutes per generation lol

[molten estuary]

That launched immediately thank you, the machamp on the start screen was invisible though

[fading igloo]

yeah, the game downloads the sprites as you encounter them

[unborn briar]

Should I play the game in full screen or nah?

[fading igloo]

thats personal preference

[molten estuary]

But I have it set to not download sprites

[fading igloo]

then turn it on in the options

otherwise you will see many question marks in white circles

[molten estuary]

Im trying to play offline, I dont have wifi

[fading igloo]

then you should download the preloaded sprites as well

[blazing python]

Then open game-preloaded and play with download sprites turned off

[blazing python]

Yes Mac download comes with all sprites already

[fading igloo]

that doesnt work without the preloaded sprites

[blazing python]

Of course

[molten estuary]

What exactly are the preloaded sprites, I have the base sprites and the full sprite pack

[blazing python]

There are more sprites than that. Not every Pokemon has a custom sprite

[fading igloo]

get the app installer and download the preloaded sprites with the app, its easier

Download the zip

[fading igloo]

the preloaded sprites are all base pokemon and their alts, all custom sprites and - the most important part, all the fusion sprites that doesnt have custom sprites yet

[molten estuary]

Thats what I used

Welp, ill have to try it tomorrow then. Thank you so much for your help, you are a legend

[blazing python]

You used the sprite pack, that zip is the app installer

Plus it is better to not use sprite packs anyways since if you want to play preloaded you have to redo them anyways

[fading igloo]

doesnt your launcher just install the sprites you dont have yet?

[blazing python]

customBaseSprites come from the sprite repo with the custom sorites

So it needs to redownload the custom sprites to get them so the sprite packs are a waste of time if you want preloaded

[fading igloo]

yeah, because theyre also custom 😄

[graceful mason]

Question, im playing and the game will randomly black screen. I can hear the game in the background but cant interact. I also play in fullscreen mode dunno if that matters.

[blazing python]

What version of windows do you have?

[fading igloo]

shouldnt matter at all ... unless your graphics card isnt strong enough to run fullscreen

[graceful mason]

11

[unborn briar]

Is there any way to change the controls to wasd?

[blazing python]

Press fn+f1

[fading igloo]

press F1
below the defaulöt bindings

[blazing python]

Or f1 depends how your Mac is set up

[fading igloo]

or FN F1 if youre on a laptop

[graceful mason]

And its a 4070 so it runs fine just random black screen while transitioning to a encounter or new area it seems.

[blazing python]

Where did you get the game files from?

This usually sounds like you got it from the website

[graceful mason]

#downloads message

[fading igloo]

upon encountering is makes sense, the game downloads the pokemon sprites while you play (shouldnt take longer than 5 seconds)

[blazing python]

Your computer shouldn’t be having graphics issues with a 4070

Do you have the game installed on your main drive?

[unborn briar]

Ahhh, makes sense! Also what are the l, r, c, and z thingies?

[graceful mason]

Yes

[fading igloo]

the screenshot says what those things do

[unborn briar]

Oh wait you're right I'm dumb lol

[blazing python]

If you try lowering it to not full screen do you have the same issues?

[graceful mason]

I will try that once im back at my pc its the only fix i can think of

[blazing python]

If not, you should use the app installer to install the custom sprites. It will install all custom sprites and customBaseSprites so it would improve performance a bit

[fading igloo]

in case we also have this
Performance issues? follow [this](#tech-support message)

[outer ore]

While downloading and starting for steam deck this never appears so i can't get past the intro screen

On preloaded version of steamdeck install

[tepid ibex]

When I pasted the custom battlers folder

It deleted

When I launched the game?

Why?

[blazing python]

Press A or start. It should be there either way

Also preloaded performs slower on steam deck

[blazing python]

CustomBattlers doesn’t delete itself. Do you have a screenshot?

[tepid ibex]

I don't have but I'm repasting the folder

[blazing python]

Are you talking about the images in CustomBattlers or the folder itself?

Because the images inside CustomBattlers get sorted into folders when you open the game. That is normal behavior

[tepid ibex]

Ohh they are setted as folders

That's ok

I thought they deleted it self

[blazing python]

Yeah they get placed into folders based on their dex number in the indexed folder. When you open the game it will say it imported thousands of sprites. If it says that, you did everything correct

Since you did it a second time, it was ask if you want to replace them. You can select yes

[tepid ibex]

I just saw folders they are sorted

In the indexed folders?

??

[blazing python]

Yup

You dont really need to worry about them. As long as the game says it imported sprites they are good

[tepid ibex]

Ok sir

[fair bane]

Can i still play using joiplay if i delete these asset folder from my phone because its kinda annoying since it's on my photo

[turbid terrace]

Hey @fair bane! 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.

[tepid ibex]

Cool bot

[fair bane]

Nu uh

[tepid ibex]

I'll say it's good

[blazing python]

No they delete them from your game folder

[fair bane]

Ah i see

[blazing python]

Our Android guide mentions an app you can get on google play to hide them from your gallery though

Called like NoMedia or something like that

[fair bane]

Oh

Thanks

This one right?

[blazing python]

Link

Yes that one

[fair bane]

Alright thanks

[hardy idol]

Are game save files transferable to andriod and pc and back?

[carmine junco]

anyone know how to use rpg maker

[verbal timber]

yes; but they are stored differently on phobile

[verbal timber]

that kind of goes outside the bounds on this channel, we can only really help with tech related problems that involve the game

[carmine junco]

oh ok

[hardy idol]

okies. ty Mordrid

i did see i got 6.0.2 mobile and .5 windows. which was likely my issue

[turbid terrace]

Hey @hardy idol! 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.

[verbal timber]

the guide has a way to upgrade to 6.0.5 for phobile

but the saves are compatible anyway

now if you had 6.0 mons and tried to go back to like a pre6.0 save, that would bork things

[hardy idol]

thankies

[verbal timber]

any save from 5.1 forward is compatible

barring aforementioned shenanigans

[fair bane]

What's with the sprite.

Do i need to set something up first?

[fair bane]

Nevermind

Oak cutscenes save my game

[glossy dove]

how do i download the 2.7 version?

[bright hill]

How can i fix this error code
[Infinite Fusion version 6.0.5]

This is in the preloaded launcher

[verbal timber]

you are using the preloaded application
either use game.exe
or if you need to use preloaded, you need an extra download the normal game files lack

[verbal timber]

android guide has a fix for that, it might not be the last you see tile errors

[turbid terrace]

[verbal timber]

#tech-support message

the aforementioned files you'd need

[verbal timber]

that is the app installer, not the game installer

?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

[verbal timber]

follow that message bubble, the app installer is linked

[bright hill]

ah okay

thx

[split lagoon]

hi can anyone help me with the onedrive issue?

[verbal timber]

#tech-support message check against the guide pinned here

[fair bane]

Oh, yeah i see the error

[arctic hinge]

Game app keeps failing to install both Custom sprites and Preloaded

[verbal timber]

your using megaman's installer right?

there's a fix for that and I am hard blanking on it

[arctic hinge]

Well it has a megaman icon

[arctic hinge]

I am i think

[verbal timber]

then yeah that's the megaman launcher

[arctic hinge]

Is there an alternative path so i can have sprites in the game

[verbal timber]

it isn't a pathing issue

that error shows that the installation failed either due to your internet [i.e., it isn't stable enough/disconnecteds] or due to permissions on your pc

the permissions part is something you'd have to figure out

[fading igloo]

that means you cant connect to the sprite repo .. have you done any attempts to fix that?

[verbal timber]

as for the internet thing; also something for you to figure out but there are some tips I can swing

• reboot your internet modem/router [unplug it for like 1-2 minutes, plug it back in]
• ensure you are using a hardwire connection between the router/modem and your pc [i.e., ethernet cable]
• close any other programs on your pc that might be drawing bandwitdh
• check if other people on your internet are drawing bandwitdh

[arctic hinge]

Not yet

I can give the latest errorlog tho

[fading igloo]

okay, lets troubleshoot a bit ... do you have windows 11 pro?

[arctic hinge]

Windows 10

[fading igloo]

i saw that error window

[fading igloo]

do you have the app folder added to the windows defender? or the game folder?

[arctic hinge]

It's in the game folder

[fading igloo]

the app installer is in the game folder? then wheres your app folder?

[arctic hinge]

It's just in a folder in a folder on a disc

[fading igloo]

so you didnt install the game yet?

[arctic hinge]

D:\Small Games\InfiniteFusion

[arctic hinge]

i did

[fading igloo]

thats bad .. you should have put the game folder (where the game launchers are) on the desktop ...

[arctic hinge]

What's the difference though

[fading igloo]

folder restrictions ... desktop is easier for the game to access the game files, like sprites, map and such

[arctic hinge]

uhuh

Aight i'll move it

[fading igloo]

good, next point ... do you have the app installer (the entire folder) added to windows defender so windows doesnt block the connection?

[arctic hinge]

not yet

[fading igloo]

okay, skip that ... are you on a onedrive folder?

[arctic hinge]

Nope

[fading igloo]

or - to be exact - this

[arctic hinge]

I can't find the exceptions button anywhere

It's just 360 Total security

[fading igloo]

erm ... i sent you the windows 11, did you change to windows 10 explanation? might be different

[arctic hinge]

It's windows 10

[fading igloo]

yeha, thats what i meant 😄

[arctic hinge]

I have windows 10 pro to be exact

[fading igloo]

okay ... meanwhile the game folder should be on the desktop now, right? have you tried downloading the sprites through the app again?

[arctic hinge]

wonder if it's any different

[arctic hinge]

i'll try

[fading igloo]

either its like windows 11 pro that the launcher cant handle ... or we're missing something .. ill talk to our tech genius later if windows 10 pro the same issue like windows 11 pro 😄

[arctic hinge]

Same thing

[tepid ibex]

How did you guys created the game with more then 400k sprites?

[fading igloo]

then, last option, manual download
Cant connect to the repo to get sprites Install Sprites manually

[tepid ibex]

Welp anybody answer my question

[fading igloo]

we didnt .. frogman did with pokemon essentials in rpg maker xp
the autogenerated sprites came from japeal, he has a site for pokemon fusions where you cna fuse everythign with everything

[arctic hinge]

1. Sprite autogenerator
2. Community teamwork

[fading igloo]

and the spriters here do good work to make custom sprites

[fair bane]

Wait, how do i uhh

Put the patch on the game

Because the error tile is still on the game

[fading igloo]

there is no patch anymore, go in your game folder and look for the "install_or_zpdate.bat" file

[tepid ibex]

Wow

I'm shocked 🤯

[fair bane]

Because i look at the android guide

[turbid terrace]

Hey @fair bane! 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.

[arctic hinge]

I actually know about the game quite a lot, it's just that i have to reinstall it

[fading igloo]

ah, android is something else ...

[verbal timber]

scroll down in the guide

[tepid ibex]

Bye guys 🫂

[verbal timber]

the map/tileset issue is listed on there and shows how to fix it

[arctic hinge]

https://tenor.com/view/goodbye-chat-hello-chat-roblox-falling-bottom-text-gif-21349658

[verbal timber]

someone answered you

and you ignored it

[arctic hinge]

sprites still downloading btw

[tepid ibex]

I read it already and I said this

[tepid ibex]

Sorry if I was rude or something I ask for apologies

[fading igloo]

yeah, that might take a while .. you literally download a bunch of sprites 😄

[tepid ibex]

Bye

[arctic hinge]

i started downloading like 10 minutes ago and it's like almost done downloading

[verbal timber]

scroll down

[arctic hinge]

Not almost, done

[fair bane]

Alright

[verbal timber]

it'll be under the common issues and fixes section

[fading igloo]

now you just need to add them to the game folder (graphics) and wait until that is done, then you start game.exe (not preloaded) and let the game sort the sprites, it tells you if its done
that might take a while also

[verbal timber]

there's 2 ways to fix the map/tileset issue'

[fair bane]

So i need to extract it to the game folder?

[verbal timber]

that is option 1, there is option 2 if you want to try that first

which is longtap the game icon on joiplay and choose "optimize maps" then wait for a popup that says "press enter to exit"

[fair bane]

I already done that but still not working

[verbal timber]

did it crash?

[fair bane]

Nope

[verbal timber]

then try option 1, but be warned

[fair bane]

?

[verbal timber]

there is a high chance your device just isn't compatible

[fair bane]

Oh

Um

Lemme just optimize one more time

[verbal timber]

if option 1 doesn't fix it and option 2 already failed i mean

[fair bane]

Just to make sure

[oblique bloom]

Help setting up the mobile version

[turbid terrace]

Hey @oblique bloom! 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.

[verbal timber]

^

follow the guide

exactly

[arctic hinge]

It worked, all the sprites are here now

I got a bunch of alternate sprites too

[fading igloo]

thats normal

[arctic hinge]

Ik

That was the preloaded sprites though

imma get the spritepacks now

[fading igloo]

you dont need to

the preloaded sprites should include the customs

[fading igloo]

did you start the normal game yet?

[arctic hinge]

i did

[arctic hinge]

wait for real

oops

imma cancel the download then

[fading igloo]

start the normal game ... in case i am right, the game will mention around 125k sprites

[arctic hinge]

For some reason it didn't mention but all the sprites are still there

[fading igloo]

after the starting screen, after the message that there is no website

hmm weird ... preloaded sprites are usually custom sprites and AI generated ...

[arctic hinge]

Is there a fix to Red's sprites? His jacket changes when he runs and it's ticking me off

[fading igloo]

i also noticed that ... idk if theres a fix for it .. but i try to ignore it 😄

[arctic hinge]

I would fix it myself but i can't be bothered right now

[weak osprey]

sorry if I'm interrupting anything, but how come every time I try to reinstall the game it just redownloads it with everything saved, even after I delete it and wipe it from my recycling bin

[fading igloo]

because the save file is not in your game folder, theyre somewhere else on your pc

[weak osprey]

ahhh, so i'd have to restart to fix my issue?

thank you btw

[fading igloo]

i dont even know what issue you have

[weak osprey]

game crashes when I try to hatch an egg, the fix was to reinstall

[fading igloo]

game shouldnt crash when you hatch an egg .. where did you get the game files from?

[weak osprey]

it popped up in bug reports, a website. I'll send link?

[fading igloo]

we dont have a website .......

[weak osprey]

oh

that makes sense

[fading igloo]

the only legit sources are this discord, reddit and pokecommunity

[weak osprey]

guess I'm starting fresh

[fading igloo]

(Megaman’s APP INSTALLER) - All-in-one installer and launcher for the game! Stay updated on game and sprite updates -> Guide with Pics + Video

• Download the zip
• right mouse button – extract all - extract
• open InfiniteFusionApp.exe (the file with megaman icon)

[weak osprey]

thank you

[fading igloo]

cant guarantee the save file still works, in case it doesnt, you might have to delete it

[weak osprey]

I'll give it a try

[halcyon ore]

Is there a way to change the music/themes ingame? I tried changing the Trainer and Spotted themes in the files with their respective file names and types but they dont seem to change ingame

[blazing python]

The music in game is tricky because the file names don’t always match up to what it actually is in game. Example, SSANNE.ogg is the bike music

What for?

[halcyon ore]

Huh...

Then what are the Trainer/Wild battle themes then?

[blazing python]

Not sure off the top of my head. Would need time to look for it

[halcyon ore]

I replaced all of these files with different music but they dont seem to be different ingame

[blazing python]

Because you didn’t change the name of the files to match

The naming matters

For example the bike song. You can put a Taylor switch song but needs to be named SSANNE.ogg

[halcyon ore]

Oh, I did, the files have different music but I changed them to be identical to the original files like you said
(Left is the ones that are different and are now placed in the game's actual files)
(Right is the original files that I stored in a separate folder just incase I want to revert them back)

[blazing python]

Oh you looking at the ME folder. BGM would be for background music

[halcyon ore]

Yeah all of the "spotted_[trainer]" files do originally come from the ME folder, I replaced them all (thats where they're supposed to be right?)

[blazing python]

If you trying to change the theme music it would be the wrong folder you are in

[halcyon ore]

Yeah I changed all of the spotted themes and the BattleTrainer/WildK themes which I did place in the BGM folder

Though I did notice the BattleTrainerK theme has both an .ogg and an .mp3 file, so I replaced both of those to be different but they're still their original audios ingame

[blazing python]

Then must be the wrong file. I recall it not being that one when I tried also

I just don’t know what it would actually be since the game uses weird audio names

[lilac ridge]

Hello, I cut all the trees in the garden several times but I only received the pruning shears whereas in a video on YouTube, the person just cut all the trees once and he got the pruning shears. I feel like this isn't normal.

[blazing python]

you can ask #gameplay-help for in-game related questions

[lilac ridge]

thanks

[verbal timber]

no that's def a tech issue

there was a version where an issue like that occured

but it was fixed ages ago

[blazing python]

Can you replace this file:
"Pokemon HeartGold and SoulSilver - Trainer Battle (Kanto)"

[halcyon ore]

Oh wait

You might be RIGHT

[verbal timber]

what version are you playing and did you get the game from here, the subreddit or the pokecommunity post

[lilac ridge]

6.0.5

[verbal timber]

the second part...did you get the game here, the subreddit or the pokecommunity post

[lilac ridge]

i gonna see

[verbal timber]

the files won't tell you

[lilac ridge]

in #downloads

[verbal timber]

mkay

when you were cutting the trees, did you interact with them directly, or walk up to each tree and go into your party to use cut

[lilac ridge]

i see the problem

i use D and cut

[verbal timber]

yeah, you have to manually interact with the trees

any other method yields a bug where the old man is like "you didn't cut the trees"

[lilac ridge]

really thanks

[halcyon ore]

Okay, so replacing those files did indeed work.
However, now I only need to replace the trainer spotted themes, and I dont know where those actually are yet

OH, NEVERMIND

THEY WORK

Thanks for the help man

[lament jetty]

I still takes a long time to load maps how can i fix it

[turbid terrace]

Hey @lament jetty! 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.

5. Performance Issues - Freezing? Lag? Bad Performance? [More Info](#tech-support message)

[quaint imp]

hi! quick question, if i made custom fusion sprites, where would i put them now? the custombattlers folder looks different from what i am used to

[lament jetty]

It's been a long time when i going to the next map

[fading igloo]

if you want to use your own sprite for a fusion, just name it correct and put it in custombattlers

[quaint imp]

thank you!

[lament jetty]

Oh Warmaker I has a question I still takes a long time to load maps how can i fix it

[fading igloo]

@blazing python btw, does windows 10 pro have the same issue as 11 pro?

[blazing python]

you asked 3 times, I gave you the link to our performance tips

[fading igloo]

@lament jetty

[lament jetty]

Oh ma bro iam sorry with it

[blazing python]

not sure, haven't seen anyone with 10 pro complain here

[fading igloo]

because of this
after some tries i was "forced" to give him the link to manual sprite download

[blazing python]

hard to tell since no one asked him to put the errorlog.txt into the chat

the error is printed into that log

[fading igloo]

yeah, i usually dont sk for the error logs .... since i wouldnt have any clue 😄

[blazing python]

The android guide comes with the maps optimized already. that is what the patch folder I provide in step 4 is

If your maps are still messed up, that is a device issue on your end with joiplay

[blazing python]

If their errorlog.txt looks like this when they install custom sprites, that means their anti virus blocked it. In this case, they had Avast and it blocked it

If it was a timeout, the app itself would say it timed out

If there was some kinda of download issue, you would see way more text here

If disconnect error, the app itself would say disconnect error

[fading igloo]

issue here wasm he couldnt add the folder to windows defender cause 360 total security ... and the game was installed on D drive

[blazing python]

So when it gives a generic message like this, I tell them to give us that errorlog, because I dont have a categorization of their issue yet to give a proper error message for

yeah so most likely in that case 360 total security is the issue

like the person with Avast

[quaint imp]

sorry another question: is there a way to uninstall the custom sprites other than manually deleting them all?

[blazing python]

why would you want to do that?

[fading igloo]

you can delete the entire custombattlers folder .. but that deletes all sprites

[quaint imp]

i have been going through them one by one to pick the ones i like best but it's p tedious and i would rather just go back to the defaults i think

[blazing python]

yeah i wouldn't type that in for ppl to do lol

[blazing python]

through the pokedex?

[quaint imp]

yeah

[blazing python]

yeah that is how the game works, and the game will reinstall sprites you are missing

so even if you delete them, they will come back

there isn't a way to batch change sprites at the moment

[quaint imp]

hmm so should i fully just uninstall and reinstall if i want to go back?

[fading igloo]

unless you turn download missing sprites off .. in that case you will just see question marks in white circles 😄

[quaint imp]

yeah not ideal lol

[blazing python]

yeah stop giving them advice on how to break the game 😆

[fading igloo]

the game will always download all sprites

[quaint imp]

it basically also just changed a lot of sprites i liked to other ones

and some of them i am struggling to change back like squirtsaur and a double azurill fusion aren't showing up in the pokedex for some reason

[blazing python]

usually restarting the game helps get their sprite again if they have one

not all pokemon have custom sprites

[quaint imp]

hmm it's just weird bc i had different sprites for them in my original game when i was running the old version

[blazing python]

yeah 2x azuril just has 1 sprite

sprites change over time

daily actually

could have been removed

[quaint imp]

man i wonder if i could find the old one it was cute lol

[livid island]

could some1 help me with this?

clicked ok nohting happent

[blazing python]

it should have 2 actually: https://if.daena.me/252.252/

[quaint imp]

my boy!

[blazing python]

this is a known bug, banana breaks: https://discord.com/channels/302153478556352513/1216570698542092288

[fading igloo]

well, banana works if you know how ... like .. from the actual party select a pokemon - item - use - banana ... iirc

[livid island]

it did work

so only banana bugs ?

[blazing python]

other items have bugs, but banana is one of them

[livid island]

haha isee

[fading igloo]

some other items also break the game for reason, but the banana is probably the most known

[livid island]

shall i noht use banana anymore?

[blazing python]

i wouldn't recommend

[fading igloo]

try the way i explained above, from the party

[livid island]

aye 🙂

[fading igloo]

worst case is that it still doesnt work and you get the error 😄

[verbal timber]

step 1) use banana
step 2) crash game
step 3) eat banana

[livid island]

when i did it out of combat nohting happent

[blazing python]

well worst case, someone wasn't able to catch a legend cause of it also cause of the error

[livid island]

oef

[blazing python]

I saw an issue before where something like this happened because they continued after using banana

that is why i said i dont recommend but you do you lol

[livid island]

got u

[quaint imp]

does changing the name of the files in the custom battlers folder to choose which pokemon you want to use still work? like removing the a or whatever from the file name

[fading igloo]

(thats why you sve before an encounter)

damn, my internet kinda doesnt like the image i wanted to use ... 😄

[blazing python]

removing the a would change the primary sprite

[quaint imp]

ok nice ty!

[frosty oriole]

I cannot get it to down load on my Google Pixel 6 smh

[blazing python]

you using our android guide?

Guide Link

[fading igloo]

yep, my laptop say its time to restart, be back in ... umm ... idk ... how long the update takes 😄

ah, now it works again

[hollow sluice]

How could i play randomizer mode on mobile?

[turbid terrace]

Hey @hollow sluice! 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!

Hey @hollow sluice! 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]

Save a game and start a new one

[fading igloo]

double bot trigger 😄

just start a new file

[hollow sluice]

tysm😘

[outer ore]

I got it working!! It's just that the buttons are reversed, so B is the confirm button rather than A. I assume I just change it in the steam controller settings?

Thank you

[blazing python]

Yeah from the steam menu itself, remap the buttons are you are good!

[quaint imp]

any idea what could be causing it? i checked for the file for the folder and it seems to be there

[blazing python]

Is there a reason why you are opening preloaded?

Preloaded only works if you set it up

[quaint imp]

it seems to run faster on my laptop

[blazing python]

If you didn’t use our preloaded set up guide, then it won’t work.

[quaint imp]

it was working until i renamed some files 🤔

[blazing python]

If you did set it up and then start making changes to your files, then that is on you lol

[quaint imp]

i just did what you had said earlier, removing the a to change the primary sprite

[blazing python]

Nothing in custom base sprites should be removed

So then going back to what I said, did you set up preloaded with our preloaded guide?

[quaint imp]

yeah was working fine before

[blazing python]

Because you wouldn’t be missing sprites if you did

[quaint imp]

is it just custom base sprites that can't be changed that way?

[blazing python]

CustomBattlers and CustomBattlers/indexed are the only sprites you should be changing if any

[quaint imp]

ah ok i didn't realize

[blazing python]

You can get the customBaseSprites from our preloaded zip though if you need to readd

The app installer would redo all your work

[turbid terrace]

Hey @glossy flax! 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!

Thanks I’ll try it

[hexed bloom]

Does anyone know if I can play this game on a retroid system?

[blazing python]

if you follow the android guide, it is possible, but not 100% success rate

[hexed bloom]

Okay, I’ll give it a shot when I get the console. Thanks!

[copper flint]

i haven't played this in a while, i'm still on version 5.1.1.1, how do i update to the latest version without losing my save files?

[blazing python]

By reinstalling new. You don't lose your save file reinstalling. You can even keep your existing folder, but you need to reinstall new in a new folder

[copper flint]

thanks m8

[oak wharf]

@blazing python Can I get that video link of about how to download all the sprites again pls

[blazing python]

To save you the headache since you have been having issues for a while.

[copper flint]

alr i got one problem, and that's transferring the old save files, i pressed yes on the pop-up message after i clicked InfiniteFusionApp, then i select the old save file folder and it declines

[blazing python]

click no

you don't transfer save files

[oak wharf]

I have the slowest dumbest biggest pc ever I’ll just wait it I can get a new one but still thx

[blazing python]

where your save file is now, is where the latest version uses also

[copper flint]

what's the function of the yes button, then?

[blazing python]

if you are updating from like version 6.0.4 to 6.0.5, you can upgrade the game vs reinstall fresh.

Your version is so old, that is why the pop up says 5.3 and above, that your version can't update. you just need to install straight to 6.0.5

but your save file is stored somewhere else on your computer, not in that game folder.

[copper flint]

alrighty, makes sense, i didn't read it correctly. Thank you!

this works so smoothly! great job on making this app, you changed this game forever!

do i have to reinstall all of the custom sprites or only install the ones after 5.1.1.1?

[blazing python]

The game automatically installs custom sprites as an encounter Pokémon. If you want to download them all at one time, you can use the sprite menu in the app installer, but it is optional

[serene kestrel]

Hey there, i swich computer and download my save file, but it doesn't load my save when i load the game, any explanation?

[blazing python]

You have to make sure it is named File A.rxdata

same capitalization, no underscore between letters, the exact same

[serene kestrel]

Actually it is, i don't change the name

[blazing python]

When you transfer the file, it always adds an _ between the name

make sure to remove it

[serene kestrel]

I'll try thx

[blazing python]

also it has to be placed in the same location

Open your game folder, double click SaveFile and it will take you to the save folder

[verbal timber]

if you have no save folder, make a save ont hegame so it can create one

then just plop the old save in there

[copper flint]

does it download them all?

[blazing python]

all the custom sprites, yes

[copper flint]

so there's no use in downloading the pack and transferring them?

[blazing python]

Correct, if you use the app, the sprite packs are not needed for anything

[copper flint]

wow, that's great!

thanks

[west gulch]

@blazing python hey m not to sure how to update the game is there a way to screen share and you give me a hand if not no worries

[blazing python]

What version are you currently on?

When you open the game, the title screen says the version number in case you don't know

[west gulch]

5.1.33

[blazing python]

Your version is too old to update, instead you need to reinstall. You don't lose your save file reinstalling. You can even keep your existing folder, but you need to reinstall new in a new folder
