No

It's a standalone download with it's own launcher

[ebon jay]

And what is that launcher

[frozen grove]

An .exe file

?tag roms

[pearl magnet]

Infinite Fusion is NOT a rom, it is a fangame! Read below for more info on the differences.

Rom/ISO = A direct copy of a game taken from an official disc or cartridge. These require an emulator or official hardware to play.

Rom Hack = An edited version of a ROM/ISO. These usually require adding a patch to the original ROM/ISO. (ROM + Radical Red Patch = Radical Red Rom Hack) These require an emulator or official hardware to play.

Fan Game = A custom created game file with more freedom and variety than ROM Hacks. These use specific game engines, programs and files to build upon the official games base mechanics. [ex: Pokemon Infinite Fusion] These can not be played via an emulator or official hardware. Instead, it is a simple .exe (executable) file.

Remember! Resources to illegal content, including ROMs, is not allowed in the server as stated by Rule 6 of our #rules

Oh

You want to import a sprite

[tawdry mauve]

Yea

[kindred crystal]

?tag importsp

[pearl magnet]

To successfully import your own custom sprite, please follow these steps:

Sprite Requirements:

1. Format: The sprite must be in .png format.
2. Naming Convention: Name your sprite according to the game's dex numbering. For example, a fusion of Aegislash and Goodra should be named 329.446.png.

Importing Your Sprite:

1. Ensure your sprite meets the criteria above.
2. Open your game folder and navigate to Graphics/CustomBattlers/Sprites to import.
3. Paste your sprite into this folder.

In-Game Instructions:

1. Launch the game.
2. The game will automatically detect the new sprites.
3. If you have an existing sprite that you're replacing, select the option "Replace All the old sprites with the new ones" when prompted.

Once completed, you can view your custom sprite in-game from the Pokedex's Sprite tab.

The lightweight is going to be the fastest and best method of downloading

You deleted the old one from Pokecommunity right ?

Bruh 1h30m to add sprite

( I add all sprite )

[rigid silo]

and uuuhh, why?

[kindred crystal]

...

[kindred crystal]

The purpose of importing a sprite is to import 1 or 2 custom sprites. Not the whole library of them

[tawdry mauve]

That sprite means nothing, and I don't know why you keep posting it.

?tag olddata

[pearl magnet]

If your game is opening and immediately closing, you likely need to do a full reinstall in a new folder. You should be deleting all of your old game/launcher folders! DO NOT MIX OLD AND NEW FILES!

Reinstalling on Windows does not affect Save Files in any way. For all other platforms, refer to the installation guides for your device!

For windows only!

If you're using the Launcher:

1. Delete your old launcher folder.
2. Reinstall version 1.1.2 of the launcher from HERE (Yes, even if you're already on 1.1.2)
3. Open the settings tab
4. Click "Reset Config"
   NOTE: The original path that the launcher shows will be your old game folder. That folder should be deleted. The new game folder will be in PIFLauncher(#.#.#)/GameFiles/InfiniteFusion
5. Install/Update the game files.

If you're not using the Launcher:

1. Delete your old game folder.
2. Reinstall the Lightweight installer in a NEW folder from Here

If you are on a non-Windows device, follow the [guide](#tech-support message) for your device to reinstall.

[olive adder]

base sprites didnt show in my game, even ive been add it manually. only the base sprites, the fusion sprites show perfectly, idk why.. did anyone know how to fix it?

[verbal timber]

are you playing the game offline?

[olive adder]

uh.. i played online .. i enable the download sprites tho.. but still no different even i leave it for hours

[verbal timber]

1. the game can only download sprites if you are actively playing [during battles and fusion]
2. the download for sprites is not infinite, there's a limit to how many sprites and how often it downloads them before it needs to take a break

3. and this is important...you aren't meant to combine manual sprite download with the dynamic download

[olive adder]

ahh i see.. thats why maybe, i cant bear with loading since every battle i need to wait for a minute, so i leave it for hours and doin other things, but didnt make the difference, so im getting desperate and install the sprites manually, and here iam.. stuck with no display base sprites XD.
maybe.. i just play with more patient then..

[kindred pendant]

Hey y'all~ I'm having a spot of trouble with the radar. Because of course. I use the pokeradar, step on wiggly grass, knock out the mon, back to overworld and more grass shakes. All is well. Before even taking a step, just turning around towards the next patch; the HUD drops. So much for that chain.

• Is this an outcome of not using a repel? (Maybe I had an encounter in that single almost-step, which the radar's own repel "blocked"?)
• Could this be the oft-mentioned "moving too fast" issue? I'm in full screen, which can give lag spikes when walking in grass, so maybe that almost-step happened too soon after the battle ended? Hmm.

I'm open to suggestions, if anybody has some tips or rituals to work around the radar's quirks

[verbal timber]

1. would recommend not being on fullscreen for various reasons
2. the hud isn't meant to stay up, as long as the grass you step in that is shaking yields the chain, you should be fine

I would recommend using a repel though to be safe

before starting the radar

[kindred pendant]

Thank you, I'll try both. I assumed the HUD dropping meant the chain died. It seems to drop very arbitrarily

[verbal timber]

the chain does randomly derp, it is an unfortunate thing gamefreak never fixed [and the people behind essentials didn't fix it or couldn't fix it either]

[kindred pendant]

Given how PIF is a project built on a project built on a project, built on... Some jank is expected. Probably a nightmare to trace the code for specific mechanics that Essentials probably handle

[median sky]

Im playing randomised, and i know that completely randomised gym trainers is a current bug (as if the gym has no base set typing and its random between each individual pokemon) but it didnt used to be an issue for me, is it a current build problem? and is the only way for me to fix it for now to turn off randomisation completely? any help is appreciated ty ty

[verbal timber]

yes and yes

you can randomize trainers and mons just fine

[turbid terrace]

Hey @verbal timber! To unlock randomized mode: Create a new game, save in Pallet Town, and create a 2nd new game. More options will appear since the 1st save is locked to Classic Mode.

Our randomizer doesn't offer true randomization meaning each Pokemon or item you find is **not ** going to be random each time. Instead we offer the below for Pokemon:
Global:

• Makes it so that if Pidgey was randomized to Pikachu on route 1, all Pidgeys on all routes are Pikachu.

Area:

• Better randomization than Global. Makes it so that each route has their own randomized set of encounters.

For more questions on other randomizer settings, checkout the Randomized Mode Wiki Page

[verbal timber]

but leave gyms off the table since it'll be a hot minute before that gets fixed

low priority item since it is working, just not as intended [plus frog is busy with hoenn]

[median sky]

ahhh okay that makes sense, thankyou!

[junior oxide]

do i have to keep ththe photos of the sprites in my gallery or can i move them to cloud storage

[verbal timber]

keep em there, game needs it

that unfortunately also means your specific device dislikes the nomedia file

[junior oxide]

i have the Samsung a25

[verbal timber]

yeah nothing we can do to remedy that

some phones/tablets just ignore nomedia files

[kindred crystal]

What you can do that I've suggested in the past, is take all 250K or however many images the game downloads to your gallery this way, and put them in an "album". They'll still show up if you are viewing all pictures, but at least if you put them in an album then they'll be separated from the rest of your photos

What you can also do for Samsung specifically is move the date on the photos. Select all of them --> more --> Edit Date & Time then move them to like a month ago. Then it'll throw them behind everything else but they'll still be there

[junior oxide]

IIsn't a alternative to .nomediq

[kindred crystal]

We don't help with alternatives to .nomedia, that's outside our scope. We can't suggest downloading other programs or utilities because we don't want to be responsible if they mess something up

[junior oxide]

ah so is she just at her cap ? like is lvl 22 for that npc her max lvl and if yes then there probably are for all the others aswell ?

[kindred crystal]

If I remember correctly the cap is based off the gym. So for example if you are battling trainers around Cerulean, where Misty's highest Pokémon is 22, then no trainer will go higher than 22.

Its a built in balancing system to prevent players from accidentally overleveling and ruining their experience

Now of course, you could just whoop them over and over and you will still level up to 23, 24, 25, 26

If you reset the altdownload you'll mess it up by wiping everything you just downloaded

[haughty ruin]

D:

so juts turn on the download data and eventually it will stop being slow?

[kindred crystal]

If you downloaded the altdownload then you don't need to do anything. That's why it says in the message this comes 100% ready to go

You can turn off download data, turn off internet, whatever you want. It downloaded everything already

[haughty ruin]

i will try redownloding it then

[kindred crystal]

You just said you downloaded the altdownload?

If you already downloaded it, there's nothing to "re-download "

[haughty ruin]

then i dont know what i did lol

[kindred crystal]

Okay. What did you just download 10 minutes ago. Show me

Which link did you click

[haughty ruin]

ooooo i dowloaded the lighwieght, the site just looks the same lol got me confused, but i just cheked on the browsers history

[kindred crystal]

Okay that makes more sense. Yes you can reset the sprite cache and make sure to just keep Download Data on, and have an internet connection

The game will download sprites for you, you don't have to do anything but just play. There is a download cap, so if you eventually stop seeing new custom sprites, understand that is normal and it will continue once the cap is done.

[haughty ruin]

but will it become faster again?

[kindred crystal]

As you encounter Pokémon you've already seen, the battle intros will get quicker yes

It'll be slow when you first encounter a new Pokémon because it hangs up on that black screen to pull the sprite

Once it already has the sprite, it won't do that anymore

?tag performance if you experience lag outside of Pokémon interactions, like just walking or entering buildings, you can try these.

[chrome saddle]

ok helpppppp
What do I type next

[prime moat]

Any chance someone could show me a proper walk through on how to update my game? I haven't played since 6.1.2 and everytime I click the "INSTALL OR UPDATE" file and I let it run, it doesn't actually update my game.

[turbid terrace]

Hey @prime moat!

How to Update to the Latest Version (Windows)

• If you're on or above 6.6.0 double click INSTALL_OR_UPDATE.bat to update.
• If you're below 6.6.0 you must either reinstall in a NEW folder (since the updater won't work due to bugs) or use the New Launcher to update.
• Reinstalling doesn’t remove or require you to move any Save Files.
• If playing on a Randomized save, make sure to reshuffle after updating. Use ?tag reshuffle if you need help.

For Non-Windows devices (Android, Mac, Steamdeck, Linux, Chromebook): Check our extended guides post

[frozen grove]

What device?

[silk zodiac]

Deleted the game a while ago and redownloaded just now, noticed that some of my sprites from my previous save file are now back to the default

Is it because its redownloading all of the sprites onto my computer? Is there a way to tell how long it would take?

[verbal timber]

yes and no

in that order

[silk zodiac]

Ah ok, guess I'll just be patient

[frozen grove]

can anyone help me re-add an sprite that was recently removed from a fusion on the latest sprite pack update?

basecally: I'm trying to re-add an alt for Reshiram/Meloetta(Aria) that I was using earlier since it was the cleanest of the sprite group that the artist has added. i tried to follow the advice of adding it to the [Graphics/CustomBattlers/Sprites to import] folder with the sprite name correctly named (in this case it is 349.466) Yet it didnt work.

[verbal timber]

so when you launch the game, it doesn't import the sprite?

[wheat obsidian]

no, it doesn't

i entered the save that has the pokemon on the first slot of my party just to make sure

it didnt asked any update

[verbal timber]

hm

[wheat obsidian]

also, now that we're here talking about removed sprites, why having more than handfull amounts of alt sprites matter? is it due to the sprite sheet file size?

[verbal timber]

no

the sprite sheets were made to reduce size [since prior to that each sprite was an individual png]

as for trimming the fat of alts, there was a change made in regards to how alts work; i think they wanted to keep the numbers reasonable for the main files

some mons end up with a METRIC TON of alts

so it can be a little much to scroll through the alts in the dex

[wheat obsidian]

i see

yet, I can't like this change much since it would end up getting rid of some sprites that could fit more on the game or the player's team

but the decition is not mine so i can't argue

but if i can bring it back manualy, that's more duable

[little lodge]

Remove the c

[wheat obsidian]

i tried

[verbal timber]

try changing it to the letter e

[little lodge]

You shouldn't need to add a letter at all. I never add one and the game never overwrites anything just adds it to the alts

[verbal timber]

yeah but the game is spaghetti code

[lapis parrot]

when i updated my game my new stuff wasnt working at first either and after restarting it it just kinda worked

[lapis parrot]

yr spaghetti code

[wheat obsidian]

didnt work

[verbal timber]

then i have no idea

i don't understand why the game won't see it

[lapis parrot]

did ya try resetting ur sprite cache

[verbal timber]

it fits the criteria, so unless there is some backend stuff that runs a check to see if the sprite got removed entirely and if you try to add a sprite that fits that, it goes "no"

[frozen grove]

I asked if you have multiple installs of the game and if you’re using the launcher that’s sitting in #downloads

Because if you have multiple game folders and you’re in an old one, it’s not gonna work

[wheat obsidian]

no multiple installs and yes it is this one

[frozen grove]

Then I’d recommend doing a full reinstall using the alt download. If it’s still not working, then it’s something on your end

?tag altdownload

[pearl magnet]

Alt Download

Use our alt download that has the game already installed for you without needing to run the installer. These files 100% work and come preloaded with the most recent spritesheets. No need to transfer files/saves to this at all. If these files are still giving you issues, the issue is on your end, not the game files: ➡️ More Info

[wheat obsidian]

if i do this, will the save files be deleted?

[frozen grove]

Nope, saves aren’t stored in the game folder

[wheat obsidian]

they are in the roaming, ye i forgot

[wheat obsidian]

so i'll just delete the current infinite fusion game file in my download file and install that new one?

[verbal timber]

ye

you'd still need to import the sprite into that

since it is gone gone [i.e., only way to get it is via the gallery or the spritework post from the crator of it]

[wheat obsidian]

in case you're telling the sprite sitting in the "sprite to import" place, right?

the one there is a ctrl c ctrl v

i'll still have it in the downloads

cool... it's worse now, 2 whole sprite boxs empty

restarted it just to make sure if it just didn't recongnized the trigger for sprite update

[frozen grove]

Did you use the alt download? That comes preloaded with everything so this shouldn’t happen. (Unless frog broke the credit sheet again)

[wheat obsidian]

yup

downloaded from the link you sent here

[frozen grove]

You’ll have to give me about 20 minutes to look into it. I’m on the phone right now

Sorry it took so long, I did find the issue. rq though, are you playing with download data turned on or off?

[storm yoke]

Can i know how to clear all data and make this game look like I just downloaded it ?

[frozen grove]

Delete your game/launcher folders entirely. If you want to also nuke your saves, you'll need to go into appdata and find the infinitefusion folder there and delete it as well

?tag save

[pearl magnet]

Your save files and backups are in: C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Roaming\InfiniteFusion

• The game folder includes a shortcut to the location above named Savefile you can double click. Each save corresponds to a slot (e.g., Slot A saves as File A.rxdata).
• To transfer, copy the save file to the same location on the new device.
• For non-Windows devices, refer to the workaround guide for your device: [HERE](#tech-support message)
• If you need to revert to a backup save, go to #ask-a-bot and send ?tag backups for instructions on how to do that.

[frozen grove]

?tag olddata

[pearl magnet]

If your game is opening and immediately closing, you likely need to do a full reinstall in a new folder. You should be deleting all of your old game/launcher folders! DO NOT MIX OLD AND NEW FILES!

Reinstalling on Windows does not affect Save Files in any way. For all other platforms, refer to the installation guides for your device!

For windows only!

If you're using the Launcher:

1. Delete your old launcher folder.
2. Reinstall version 1.1.2 of the launcher from HERE (Yes, even if you're already on 1.1.2)
3. Open the settings tab
4. Click "Reset Config"
   NOTE: The original path that the launcher shows will be your old game folder. That folder should be deleted. The new game folder will be in PIFLauncher(#.#.#)/GameFiles/InfiniteFusion
5. Install/Update the game files.

If you're not using the Launcher:

1. Delete your old game folder.
2. Reinstall the Lightweight installer in a NEW folder from Here

If you are on a non-Windows device, follow the [guide](#tech-support message) for your device to reinstall.

Why does this pop up when I try to play

oi pressed the sprites to downlaod automatically and it isnt working properly

the sprites are missing for normal pokemon

should i just download the sprite manually

[tardy niche]

Ok but how do I fix my bug

[steep frost]

is there only a lightweight version to infinite fusion?

[half pine]

nope

there is a standard version

[steep frost]

where can I find that

[half pine]

on downloads

its there

[steep frost]

go for option one?

[half pine]

there should be a loghtwieght and then the standard

dwonload the standard if u want that one

[steep frost]

im reading through and I cant find ittt

[steep frost]

all I see is lightweight and launcher

[verbal timber]

double check to make sure your device isn't listed as incompatible on the android guide

[verbal timber]

no

the automatic sprite download isn't infinite; the game can only grab a set number of sprites at specific intervals before it has to take a break

[verbal timber]

the lightweight is recommended over the launcher

[steep frost]

thats the only launcher available rightt?

[verbal timber]

those are the only 2 for windows yes

[steep frost]

okok thanks

the launcher might get discontinued, so use it at your own risk

Examples: trainer uses sand spray on my 1st pokemon I swap to pokemon 2 but pokemon 2s accuracy is lowered having never been hit by sand spray, or things like leech seed working after I take out the pokemon who used it and healing a trainers 2nd pokemon. Any idea how to fix this on a brand new game download?

How to restore to a backup save

This only works if you had Auto Save turned on and using 6.4+

1. Open your game folder
2. Double click SaveFile
3. Double click the folder named backups
4. Double click the folder of the save slot you’re reverting. Ex: File A
5. Rename the most recent file to File A.rxdata (The letter will be different if you’re reverting a different save slot)
6. Copy the newly renamed file and paste it into the previous folder. (This will be the folder you had open after step 2) When asked to replace, click yes.

Note: If you don't feel comfortable overriding the save, you can rename it to a different letter on step 5. Ex: File B.rxdata instead of File A.rxdata

[verbal timber]

if none of those work, then yeah, a fresh start is the only option

it is rare for saves to corrupt, the biggest problem child for that happening is the game files being touched by onedrive/cloudsync

make sure in the path for the game folder, onedrive isn't shown, if it is then you have your culprit

• If you're below 6.6.0 you must either reinstall in a NEW folder (since the updater won't work due to bugs) or use the New Launcher to update.
• Reinstalling doesn’t remove or require you to move any Save Files.
• If playing on a Randomized save, make sure to reshuffle after updating. Use ?tag reshuffle if you need help.

Our Windows download links are in our installation guides in #downloads

For all non-Windows devices: [CLICK HERE FOR WORKAROUND GUIDES](#tech-support message)

[frozen grove]

Blue text are links to the guides. Make sure you read through the guide. All the download links are there

[stark basalt]

when i click that, and try lightweight installer, i dont see what to download there

where is it?

oh nvm

it says i need to change name but the name is what it wants, what should i do

[frozen grove]

Send a screenshot of the terminal telling you to rename it

[frozen grove]

You downloaded it 5 times so there’s a number at the end

[stark basalt]

but i removed number

thats why i showed file name in it

[topaz nest]

Hello, I’m having trouble with my game crashing

[frozen grove]

According to your screenshot it’s still there

If you still have 4 other downloads in the same folder though, it’s not gonna let you change it. Delete the other downloads.

When asking for help, please be as specific as possible! We cannot help you if you don't give us the information we need!

Info we need:

1. Explain the issue. When is the issue happening? What were you doing when the issue occurred? Do not just say "Game won't work"! This does not help us at all!
2. Where did you get the game files from? (Discord, links from discord, website, etc.?)
3. Are you using the Launcher?
4. Did you update from old files or install in a new folder?
5. What version are you on? (Open the game, title screen says. Do not just say latest version!)
6. What device are you playing on? (Windows Home/Pro, Android, Mac, etc.)
7. Send a screenshot if applicable. Often times, it is hard to describe your issue. Send a screenshot so we can see what you are seeing. Especially if you are getting an error.

[topaz nest]

I’m getting this

[frozen grove]

Where’d you download from?

I asked you 7 questions and you answered 1

[topaz nest]

From the install or update bat file

1. Game lists multiple script issues
   2 discord
   3 yes
   4 clean install after deleting previous folders

Windows 10 home or pro?

You can try and use the alt download but it very likely won’t work

?tag altdownload

Alt Download

Use our alt download that has the game already installed for you without needing to run the installer. These files 100% work and come preloaded with the most recent spritesheets.

REGARDING SPRITE ISSUES:

NOTE: If you are offline and cannot play the game online, you can either download the newest spritepack from #spritepack-releases (NOT APPLICABLE FOR ANDROID) or use the alt download (mentioned at the bottom of this message)

If you have seen even a single custom or base sprite for any pokemon:

Do this first: navigate to the help man in the Pokecenter and go to Sprite Options -> Clear Sprite Cache.

Otherwise, your game is fine and working properly! The game can only download a limited number of sprites while playing before going on cooldown, you have simply hit the download cap for now.
If you still feel like your sprites are not downloading, ensure that you have your "download data" option enabled and your device is connected to the internet.

If you have not seen even a single sprite for any pokemon:
Your game is not working properly!
Step 1. Ensure you're on the latest version (check your title screen and compare with #downloads)
Step 2. Ensure you have a good internet connection.
Step 3. Check your options in a save, turn on "download data" if it was turned off.
Step 4. If that did not fix it: head to a pokecenter > talk to the man in a black suit with sunglasses and navigate to Sprite Settings and select "Reset sprite cache" & "Reset displayed alt sprites".
Step 5. If that did not fix it, delete any game or launcher folders and do a full reinstall.
Step 6. After reinstalling, repeat step 4.

If for some reason none of this works, type ?tag altdownload in #ask-a-bot and reinstall using those files (NOT APPLICABLE FOR ANDROID)

[stark basalt]

So it worked, but the sprites I used to use are gone, is that permanent?

[kindred crystal]

No you just have to go into the Summary tab and switch them back

It reset your defaults, basically

[stark basalt]

Oh ok thank you so much

[verbal timber]

you weren't meant to merge files

[kindred crystal]

True. Best i can figure is they told their PC to keep files already in the destination with the same name, causing it to delete any duplicate files anyway... Hopefully lol

[unique nacelle]

why it write this

i cant launch pif

[solid bramble]

my game stuck in the opening

[kindred crystal]

?tag wifi

[pearl magnet]

For never ending loading screens, try turning off WiFi/internet on your device and try again. For some reason, even though your internet might be working just fine, something about this game clogs it up. Once you are in game, if issue persists, turn off Download Data as well. For Android users, you may also need to turn off your mobile data.

Note: When you are disconnected from the internet, sprites will not be automatically downloaded resulting in missing sprites. If the game will only work offline for you, go to #ask-a-bot and type in ?tag altdownload and reinstall with the guide that Deino replies with. This is only meant for Windows devices. If you’re on a non-windows device, you already have all spritesheets pre-installed which means you just need to turn off download data!

[lethal condor]

Can't go down the waterfall

[unique nacelle]

bro why i cant install the game

I cannot, but I have brought it up to get someone who can to you.

[frozen grove]

Send a screenshot of the bottom of the terminal. There should be more if you scroll down

?tag backups try checking for a backup save

[pearl magnet]

How to restore to a backup save

This only works if you had Auto Save turned on and using 6.4+

1. Open your game folder
2. Double click SaveFile
3. Double click the folder named backups
4. Double click the folder of the save slot you’re reverting. Ex: File A
5. Rename the most recent file to File A.rxdata (The letter will be different if you’re reverting a different save slot)
6. Copy the newly renamed file and paste it into the previous folder. (This will be the folder you had open after step 2) When asked to replace, click yes.

Note: If you don't feel comfortable overriding the save, you can rename it to a different letter on step 5. Ex: File B.rxdata instead of File A.rxdata

[little lodge]

(Or just check the recycle bin)

[kindred crystal]

True. If it was recent and you dont have that turned off then that's even easier cause you can just right click --> restore

[fair thorn]

IT WORKED

I did not want to replay up to that point

also the save is flagged as random but its a remix mode run

[placid thicket]

My game loses its sound after about 20-30 minutes of playing and only gets it back when i fully restart it. Anyone have any ideia on how to solve it? (I checked in-game configs, pc sound config, and headset config, also, i am playing on a dualsense - audio on pc directly - if it matters)

[little lodge]

If you even looked at the randomizer settings the save has a possibility of getting flagged. All you can do is new game + (Have to beat the E4 first)

[kindred crystal]

I think this is also a known bug where files just get randomly flagged.

[frozen grove]

I have yet to be able to recreate that “bug”

So I’d say no

[kindred crystal]

Ah, alright.

[mellow grail]

I quit and reloaded and that did fix it, there was no update

[frozen grove]

Tends to happen on long play sessions. It’s normal for this game

[unique nacelle]

i try to do randomizer but it block on "The wild pokémon have been shuffled

no sorry that good

[kindred crystal]

Yeah that's normal. It's loading (parsing) everything on that message, so it'll unfreeze once it is done shuffling

[wintry bone]

Everytime I try to load into the website hackmd.io using the macwine guide on the mac 2 it doesn’t load the website does the website not support the MacBook Air

[nova sorrel]

trying to play remix mode, but it isn't setting as remix

[kindred crystal]

Visual glitch. Sometimes it corrects itself and sometimes it doesn't

If you are encountering Pokemon that aren't from Gen 1, then you know you are playing Remix

[wintry bone]

Does it not support the MacBook Air because it’s a older device?

[kindred crystal]

Which processor does your Macbook have?

Intel, or Apple Silicon, you can see it in About This Mac or Settings --> About

[wintry bone]

1.8 GHz dual-Core intel core i5

[kindred crystal]

So intel. Just wanted to make sure since Silicon can't use Wine

[wintry bone]

It also won’t load discord so I’m having to use my phone for the discord

[kindred crystal]

AS for the guide not loading, that would be something more likely on your end, hackmd.io is supported by Apple otherwise our guides wouldn't work

[wintry bone]

If I send you a video could you help me?

[kindred crystal]

A video of the website not loading on your mac?

I guess

Put it in here

[wintry bone]

I have the website copied btw

[kindred crystal]

Yeah that's going to be something on your end, it's working for me

heya, I'm having a weird issue, my trainer shuffle just randomly broke. wild pokemon are still shuffled, as are items, but trainers got the teams according to the wiki. I tried reshuffling, even tried adjusting the BST range for trainers, but no matter how often I reshuffle, they still got their standard teams. any idea what could be causing this?

[little lodge]

Did you check your actual randomization settings and make sure it's flipped to on

[muted birch]

yes

multiple times

even turned it off, shuffled, turned it back on and shuffled again

[little lodge]

Did you start randomized or start in classic/remix and then randomize

[muted birch]

I started randomized

[little lodge]

No clue then

[kindred crystal]

Just to be clear, you are on the most recent game version, and did download the game from here, right?

[muted birch]

yes

the shuffle randomly stopped working right before mount moon

[kindred crystal]

Interesting.

[muted birch]

I started a new game rq and the shuffle works there, no idea what broke it, I certainly didn't touch any game files

the only noteworthy thing was that a new sprite pack was available

[kindred crystal]

I know when you downlaod new spritepacks it is recommended to reshuffle encounters, but you already tried that.

[muted birch]

I might as well just start over, I hadn't even gotten to the second gym, but I'm kinda worried it'll happen again and I have no idea what caused it

[kindred crystal]

If it does I'd definitely bring it up again.

[muted birch]

does the game write logfiles anywhere

[verbal timber]

no?

th only time you need to reshuffle is when you update the game

outside that, downloading a spritepack has no impact on randomization

[fading atlas]

yo in my case wath should i do?

[kindred crystal]

Send a screenshot of your game folder please

[frozen grove]

If you did custom sprites only I think it does

?tag olddata

[pearl magnet]

If your game is opening and immediately closing, you likely need to do a full reinstall in a new folder. You should be deleting all of your old game/launcher folders! DO NOT MIX OLD AND NEW FILES!

Reinstalling on Windows does not affect Save Files in any way. For all other platforms, refer to the installation guides for your device!

For windows only!

If you're using the Launcher:

1. Delete your old launcher folder.
2. Reinstall version 1.1.2 of the launcher from HERE (Yes, even if you're already on 1.1.2)
3. Open the settings tab
4. Click "Reset Config"
   NOTE: The original path that the launcher shows will be your old game folder. That folder should be deleted. The new game folder will be in PIFLauncher(#.#.#)/GameFiles/InfiniteFusion
5. Install/Update the game files.

If you're not using the Launcher:

1. Delete your old game folder.
2. Reinstall the Lightweight installer in a NEW folder from Here

If you are on a non-Windows device, follow the [guide](#tech-support message) for your device to reinstall.

[noble atlas]

will it kill my safe data too?

• Device: Android
• Game Version: 6.7.2
• Where did you get your game files from? Here :3
• Description of Issue:
  After I speak to the guy by the slowpoke well, he's supposed to give me dive/I'm supposed to find it after he leaves. This is not the case, and the speech bubble hovers where he used to be. I didn't do anything special- I just walked down the route from Goldenrod and spoke to him as per usual. (Although I didn't speak to anyone else in town.)

This has happened to me twice now actually, although the first time I chalked it up to an issue due to where I got the files (that website, yk the one), but I deleted all those files and re downloaded from discord, and this is a fresh save file

I know a way to get around it (wailmer/wailord learns dive naturally) but it's hella a drag getting one due to spawnrate

Otay

Although it's not just that

It's mainly not getting the dive tm

[frozen grove]

Well for specifically the text icons, that's where they go.

The dive thing, he should have already given it to you after you talk to him

[rancid snow]

Heee... Did not

Didn't get the popup + wasnt in my inventory

[frozen grove]

DM me your save and I'll see if I can figure out what happened

[rancid snow]

I'll see if I can recreate it since I exited out of the game before saving

[rancid snow]

Otay

[rancid snow]

Should I save after I recreate it and then send it? Or before?

[frozen grove]

Mmmm send it before so I can try and recreate it as well

[rancid snow]

Alright 👍

[tawdry prawn]

How do I turn off sprite auto-update? The game asked me if I wanted to automatically update the sprites and I accidentally clicked yes, now the game always redownloads sprites whenever I load my save files

[frozen grove]

Go into options and turn off download data

[tawdry prawn]

Tried it and every sprites are now missing

[frozen grove]

Probably because they're not downloading

?tag resetcache || You can try that otherwise if you want to play offline without missing sprites, use the altdownload

[pearl magnet]

For missing sprites after updating, talk to the help man in any Pokémon center and navigate to Sprite Options -> Clear Sprite Cache.

If your sprites are still missing, check the pinned message in #tech-support titled “REGARDING SPRITE ISSUES”.

Altdownload?

Alt Download

Use our alt download that has the game already installed for you without needing to run the installer. These files 100% work and come preloaded with the most recent spritesheets. No need to transfer files/saves to this at all. If these files are still giving you issues, the issue is on your end, not the game files: ➡️ More Info

oh

alright

thank you so much

?tag controller

[pearl magnet]

You can press F1 (FN + F1 on laptops) to change your keybindings!

Be aware, controllers will be auto mapped to buttons depending on which controller you plug in.

If you want to remap buttons on controller, you need to use Steam since this game doesn't support it. How to use Steam: [Guide](#tech-support message)

[dull hare]

so im a little stuck- i used the lightweight launcher and followed all the steps exactly, and everything that it said in the guide should happen, happened. but no matter what i do the game instantly crashes upon opening. it will show a frame of a random intro artwork and then just close. any help appreciated

[maiden epoch]

How to give suggestions??

[kindred crystal]

?tag olddata

[pearl magnet]

If your game is opening and immediately closing, you likely need to do a full reinstall in a new folder. You should be deleting all of your old game/launcher folders! DO NOT MIX OLD AND NEW FILES!

Reinstalling on Windows does not affect Save Files in any way. For all other platforms, refer to the installation guides for your device!

For windows only!

If you're using the Launcher:

1. Delete your old launcher folder.
2. Reinstall version 1.1.2 of the launcher from HERE (Yes, even if you're already on 1.1.2)
3. Open the settings tab
4. Click "Reset Config"
   NOTE: The original path that the launcher shows will be your old game folder. That folder should be deleted. The new game folder will be in PIFLauncher(#.#.#)/GameFiles/InfiniteFusion
5. Install/Update the game files.

If you're not using the Launcher:

1. Delete your old game folder.
2. Reinstall the Lightweight installer in a NEW folder from Here

If you are on a non-Windows device, follow the [guide](#tech-support message) for your device to reinstall.

i deleted everything already but i'll try to find more hidden files i guess?

[kindred crystal]

You already deleted the whole game folder, and did a fresh install of the game today?

[dull hare]

yes

[kindred crystal]

<@&306953740651462656>

[tall holly]

It's been a while since one of those popped up

[kindred crystal]

Indeed.

[frozen grove]

I forwarded it to mod chat for gastly too

[kindred crystal]

Can you help Kat above, please?

[dull hare]

if you have suggestions on how to find any hidden files that might need deleting, it would help!

[frozen grove]

You didn't format your suggestion correctly. Here's the copypasta so you don't have to retype it all:

Adding the DexNav feature to Pokémon Infinite Fusion would greatly improve the experience for many types of players while still keeping the game balanced and challenging.
For normal players, DexNav would reduce unnecessary grinding and frustration. Infinite Fusion already has a massive number of possible Pokémon combinations, and DexNav would help players search for specific Pokémon more efficiently instead of relying only on random encounters. This saves time and lets players focus more on exploring, battling, and experimenting with fusions.
For Nuzlocke players, DexNav would be extremely helpful without breaking the rules. It could simply show what Pokémon are available in an area before the first encounter, allowing better planning and safer team decisions. This does not guarantee a capture—it only gives information—so the risk and tension of Nuzlockes remain intact.
For Monotype runners, DexNav would be a huge quality-of-life improvement. Many monotype runs fail early because the required type is very rare or locked behind luck. DexNav would help players locate valid Pokémon for their run without excessive resets, making monotype challenges more accessible and enjoyable.
Overall, DexNav would respect player choice. Those who want full randomness can ignore it, while others can use it as a tool for planning. It does not make the game easier—it makes it fairer, smoother, and more player-friendly.
Adding DexNav would fit perfectly with Infinite Fusion’s goal of creativity, experimentation, and freedom, while helping all kinds of players enjoy the game more.

Send a screenshot of your game folder

[dull hare]

do you mean this?

[frozen grove]

You've got mixed files

[dull hare]

i'm not sure how :( there was only the two in there when i did the install

[frozen grove]

Where did you download from?

[dull hare]

lightweight installer here #downloads message

No. Just keep download data on

Please remember to delete everything, again, before downloading that altdownload

Bots need to give me five minutes without a scam message. I need a drink

[kindred crystal]

*Implements a "Buy me a Coffee" tip website but it's "Buy me a Beer"

[pale pine]

Sapph you can put us porygons in charge for 5 mins while you go have a drink I promise we'll leave at least some of the server intact

[frozen grove]

I barely trust you to be active in tech support

[dull hare]

i made sure to delete everything before doing this. still opening and instantly closing

are there any paths in my files i can check for folders or files that would be causing conflict?

like things i might need to delete

[kindred crystal]

Just to be clear. This game did work previously right?

Like you've played it before

[dull hare]

yeah, but it has definitely been more than a year

[kindred crystal]

Have you switched PC's or upgraded Windows since then?

[dull hare]

no

[kindred crystal]

Okay.

[dull hare]

finally got it to give me an error

[frozen grove]

Where is your game folder?

[dull hare]

in downloads

[frozen grove]

And this is with the altdownload?

[dull hare]

yes

[frozen grove]

Then this is something on your end messing with the game. This specific error is usually caused by a permission issue or onedrive messing with things

[dull hare]

i don't have onedrive installed :(

got another one

a bit different

[little lodge]

Make sure it isn't installed

Go to the bottom right of your computer

If there's a cloud, OneDrive is on the computer

[dull hare]

it's not there. i uninstalled it before even downloading the launcher

[little lodge]

Alr just wanted to like quadruple check

[tough hound]

what windows version do you have
(10, 11)(home, pro)

[dull hare]

11 home

[little lodge]

Do you have Antivirus?

Installed

[dull hare]

not sure, how do i check?

i mean i haven't gone out of my way to get one

[little lodge]

Alright then you probably don't. Antivirus, ...Norton specifically, can actually mess with game permissions

[dull hare]

okay i don't know how to tell you guys this but it seems to be working for no reason now

[kindred crystal]

Makes sense.

[dull hare]

friend suggested moving it to desktop and after crashing a few more times it works now i guess 😭

[kindred crystal]

🫠

[little lodge]

Yeah I was actually about to suggest waiting. I was hunting through the tech support channel and the like two people I found with the same error that just fixed itself

XD

[dull hare]

well.. thanks for the help anyway XD

[little lodge]

Btw if onedrive isn't installed you can put the game wherever you want

:P

[dull hare]

ahh

[little lodge]

As long as it's on the C Drive

[dull hare]

sigh. if anyone can help lol. im just not sure what to do. i can't get the game to open for more than a few minutes at a time. most of the time it doesn't open at all. i keep getting more errors like this. i even tried restarting my whole pc

[kindred crystal]

As Sapphire said earlier, if even the altdownload isn't working, there isn't more we can do to help.

There is something on your end that we aren't aware of that keep causing this

[reef harbor]

what is onedrives problem and how do i kill it

[kindred crystal]

OneDrive interrupts the game's ability to sync and communicate with the game files

You can just disable it or go to programs and uninstall it

[dull hare]

i thought they said someone else had a similar error before though :(

[reef harbor]

do i need it at all

idk puter

i just like my silly pokemon

[kindred crystal]

If you don't plan on accessing your photos/videos/media on multiple other devices, then no.

It's just a way of syncing media between multiple devices

[reef harbor]
