because if you have fresh downloads of files in new folders, this issue shouldn't persist
delete it one more time

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
I'd like some help on what are the controls in controller terms if possible??
_ What does F1 though F7 do?_
Also what does the magic wand-like button do?
the android guide has a section for controls
but controller stuff may not be shown, you'd need to hit up the joiplay discord server for that
Thank you!!! ^^
When I click play in the launcher, the game window immediately closes as soon as it appears
?tag olddata
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:
- Delete your old launcher folder.
- Reinstall version 1.1.2 of the launcher from HERE (Yes, even if you're already on 1.1.2)
- Open the settings tab
- 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 inPIFLauncher(#.#.#)/GameFiles/InfiniteFusion - Install/Update the game files.
If you're not using the Launcher:
- Delete your old game folder.
- Reinstall the Lightweight installer in a NEW folder from Here

I think i know now, it's just lagging so much i have to wait abit more just to play it using wifi. Thanks, did you know how to improve the performace? it feels like forever just to wait till the sprites can rendered?
It lagging on WiFi is normal, and here's some performance stuff

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.

You're not dumb, just drew a blank
I can't use my save file. It happened after I got an error and my game closed. I tried redownloading the game and replacing my save data with a backup, but for some reason my game still isn't showing up in the starting menu.
Hey @zealous willow! You can download the game from: [#downloads](#downloads message)

?tag corrupted
The error you are having is due to a corrupted save in your save folder conflicting with your current save.
Note: Ensure you know which save file is corrupted before continuing. You can see the save slot on the save selection screen.
- Open your game folder
- Double click SaveFile
- Delete the save file causing issues.
- If you don't know which it is, you can remove the save 1 by 1 from this folder until you find it
If you want to revert your save to a backup, use ?tag backups for more info.
Your saves aren't showing up in the game at all, even the backups?
And you've checked all backups?
Did you verify your savefiles are showing up in the game files folder, in that savefile shortcut? And didn't move the game files
I haven't checked all the backups
Verify you've left the game in your Downloads in your C: Drive, and that the savefiles are in that savefile folder in the game folder.
Do you have the savefile folder in your game files? Sometimes it doesn't actually make that folder until you start a save for the first time, then it finds all the rest
Send a screenshot of your game files
One of my backups work
Thank you for the help
Sorry, probably should have checked all of them before i asked, thank you
No problem, I'm glad you didn't lose everything
i try to open this but every time i do it says something along the lines of ''Smart app control stopped a file, which might be dangerous'' with my rough translating skills.

You're not dumb, it's fine
so is there an official AUR package for infinite fusion?
What is that
the Arch User Repo
Idk what that is
We have a Sprite Repo, where we store our sprites, if that's hwat you mean
a repository for packages for arch linux
Anything outside of what's in the linux guide, no
Our Ubuntu Linux guide is the only Linux one

Hey y'all, i think i found a bug while doing the Pinkan Island and Diamond Necklace quests
Windows 11
Game version 6.7.2
Game files downloaded from the official Discord
I completed Pinkan Island quest, and obtained the Diamond. I flew back to Knot Island and fished up the last Pearl i needed, and sold a nugget to get the rest of the money. Upon asking the lady to make the necklace, she says I do not have all the materials. I looked in every pocket of the bag, and the Diamond is gone. I can't go back to Pinkan Island to check either. I looked in the bug report channel and there was no mention of this.
im tryna put my name in a new save it won't register but all the other options still work wth is hapening
what device are you on also dont double post
Hey everyone
I downloaded pokemon infinite fusion from this discord server but

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)
Uhh why does my honreon look different?
Do I have to download another pack?
just chose a different alt or add it manually if the sprite hasent been added into the game yet
Ok thanks
mb on laptop
figured it out already
not a bug, you left pinkan island
until you finish the quest you aren't meant to leave that island
items and pokemon you obtain on pinkan are "locked" to that area until you finish
i.e., they are considered separate
when I lunch my game it 's twinkling and flashing and I dont know what do to (sorry if you don't understand Im french )
do you have the game fullscreened?
yes
Using the in-game option for Full Screen can strain your graphics card and lead to Graphics issues, flashing, green lines, and more.
We recommend setting the Screen Size option to a lower setting and dragging the corners of the window to make the screen larger instead for computers having issues.
You can also try updating your Graphics Drivers and seeing if that helps with certain graphical issues.
thanks it worked
What’s the difference between the game.exe and InfiniteFusion.exe?
nothing

My girlfriend wants to download it but has windows 8 is it still possible or is it specifically windows 10+
How to fix?
specifically 10 or 11 home
windows 8 would either barely work or not work at all
Thank you mordrid

this basically is saying it either can't read the files or isn't able to access them properly

Do I have to download seperate for base?

hey i tried to open and update the game after a long time and this is what happens when i open it
is it normal that the mobile version of the game takes a long time to load
Hey @shrewd rose! Black screen in this game is the loading screen. The duration of the black screen depends on YOUR computer and YOUR internet.
- If you get the message below while opening the game, this means to stop clicking/pressing buttons on the screen as it is loading.
- If you get the message while in game, this means your computer is struggling.

the game was never designed for anything outside windows pcs
follow the guide for your device
i only use the mobile cus my pc one cant load base sprites
load as in invisible or white circles with ?

so would i want to do light weight? i dont really understand this
given the launcher may get discontinued, yes, follow the lightweight guide
use the guide for the altdownload on your pc
why would that happen?
ok ty
because the launcher isn't being maintained anymore
the creator of it left the discord for personal reasons
thats not good, so i wont have a main screen? i am confused
sorry, okay thanks.
why does the download keep stoping😭
no idea
hey i made it to the waiting part with the download code and it says press anything to continue but when i do it closes
it is supposed to do that
check the folder where you ran the installer
it should have a bunch of new stuff
found out the problem, since I have an old file that got named to fusions (10 and not just fusions. sso i had to delete my old folder
@verbal timber Hello, thank you for replying to me in the other channel but it didn't work for some reason. I renamed the file into .png, put it in the right folder, and when i ran the game, a pop up does appear to say that a new sprite was added, but it doesn't appear when I try to switch into it for my pokemon
this is the sprite I'm trying to import by the way
to clarify
did you put .png into the name of the file?
yes
because that is why
yeah, it just needs to be the numbers and saved as a png file
its the one in local_sprites -> indexed
right?
yes
i now have a game!!!
👍
is a randomizer built in or is that a client thing i need to download
built in, you will need to have a save started [even if it is just you in your bedroom]
?tag randomizer
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
do i hit randomized mode i guess lol

the bst scale is how much addition/subtraction the game does on the original pokemon that would have been in that spot
at 1; you'd pretty much not see any real difference
at 500; you get full chaos
so do i want like maybe 350 so i see random stuff but not crazy
yep
Where can I get original spirits for normal pokemons?
by playing the game
long as you are connected to the internet and have download data turned on in the options, you will get sprites as the game is able to grab them
For some reason
My normal spirits don't show when I downloaded the game
Is there a way I can download it and transfer it to the files ?

Hey @teal imp! You cannot install this game on iPhone or iPad. This game is not a ROM Hack so Delta won't work and we are not planning to release an iOS version.
Yeah but Apple's a lot harder to try and optimize a game for than Android since it's not designed for play and Joiplay, the only reason it works on Android, isn't on iOS
i think there is a very jank work around but you'd need a pc to do it, and at that point, you might as well just play on pc
outside that, if you want it on the go, get a steamdeck; far more stable than android is

many of my base sprites are showing as question marks and most of the custom fusion ones. I'm running the newest version of the game, I've updated it multiple times now, and I've tried resetting the sprites using the Help Man in the Pokemon Center, none of which have gotten me anywhere.

Hey @rotund blade!
How to Update to the Latest Version (Windows)
- If you're on or above 6.6.0 double click
INSTALL_OR_UPDATE.batto 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 reshuffleif you need help.
For Non-Windows devices (Android, Mac, Steamdeck, Linux, Chromebook): Check our extended guides post
because you dont get it there
that means you hit the download cap

it is supposed to say that, however it is not meant to warp you there
key items, debugger
i used that but if i over use it will it bug my game out
ok thx
but for now i have to use it allways when i play rip
have the help man fix the game
but honestly if it keeps happening, something might be borked with the save
to the point not even the help man can fix it
i.e., you'd need to start a new save
Reinstall everything from the beginning.
I redownloaded and ran install or update, but I’m still seeing this, what do?
I’m gonna try deleting everything then redoing it real quick

How long roughly will this take😭
Whatever your internet speed is
All I’m wondering is how to do a clean uninstall so I can reinstall the game without the old version being called back to-
Old as in… like 2 years ago 😂
Just now returned back to it now that I’m back on a pokemon kick again-
Just delete all the game files before doing a fresh install
Right click the whole game folder and delete
When I did that last, it managed to keep all my original save files so I was just concerned that it was still half old half new that wouldn’t work-
Depends on what version you had last
I did do a small test run and it seems to work alright, except for a bunch of missing sprites.
My last version was… really old. Like 2 years ago old.
The randomizer doesnt randomize the gyms with the same typing for everyone in the gym including the gym leader. it has different typing for each pokemon
Known bug
what to do about it? it has happened to 2 saves now
recent saves
Is what it is. No fix to it as of right now, I believe?
Save files are independent of the game version, it won't affect whether or not the new version is new or old
Oh okay!
Well I made sure to just remove the old saves in case
But the new save I made works decently fine.
Imma make a new save for an actual run and lower the randomizer to like 200 instead of 250, bc it was including a bit too many pseudo-legendaries for my taste
i just downloaded the game 6.7.2, and I got the full sprite pack and the base sprites in there too. My basesprite folder has sprites in there, but my game does not show any base srpites. what did I do wrong?
You downloaded the sprite packs manually ?
yes
Well you weren't supposed to do that
Youre playing on Windows with an internet connection, right ?
well after I downloaded the sprite pack for just the indexed fusions, I had no sprites for base pokemon
you are only supposed to use the packs if you plan to play offline
the game runs off of wifi so it can auto-update the sprite folders as needed when they’re made, so what you did wasn’t really needed
yes, but I would prefer to play with preloaded everything
then you need the altdownload

oh, was that even listed in the download links?
The version that downloads for you as you play
Not everything all at once
If you download the lightweight and then download the spritepacks all you did is just doubled up your files
which can cause issues
oh, ok ill try the alt download then
usually windows will try to overlap the files with matching files but that can basically shuffle up old stuff into the stuff that needs to work-
kinda makes the work much harder… but was added for ease of use when copying over folders.
the preloaded one already has the sprites you said? so I dont need to get the sprite pack with the 210k custom sprites?
Correct.
There is almost 0 reasons to ever download the spritepacks
well, I used to play on version 4 and early 5, so the whole process was different
That's fine, im not mad about it. Just want to make sure you get set up right
I know it's gonna be a banger

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:
- Delete your old launcher folder.
- Reinstall version 1.1.2 of the launcher from HERE (Yes, even if you're already on 1.1.2)
- Open the settings tab
- 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 inPIFLauncher(#.#.#)/GameFiles/InfiniteFusion - Install/Update the game files.

Yeah, becuase as Sapphire mentioned the first time, everything should be in the infinitefusion folder
That's why we always say to leave the folder alone and in downloads. If you want you can make a shortcut to the .exe for your desktop or add it to Steam

Hey @upbeat tundra! Black screen in this game is the loading screen. The duration of the black screen depends on YOUR computer and YOUR internet.
- If you get the message below while opening the game, this means to stop clicking/pressing buttons on the screen as it is loading.
- If you get the message while in game, this means your computer is struggling.

my game just crashed on startup and now the launcher doesnt have a play button
what do i do
Did you recently update it?
Yeah sorry I dont think I've ever encountered this before with the launcher. Honestly though, you should just switch to the lightweight installer
The launcher is going to get discontinued
i just restarted my laptop and it worked
Looking for some help. I’ve got PIF on android using joiplay, but I’m having trouble mapping out the controls with my controller buttons. Is there a format I can reference or info on what keys do what in game?
So I'm using Redmi Note 9 which is incompatible device does this mean the game is completely unplayable or I can still make do? ;-;
So this stoped but on victory road my screen was like corrupted do u know why
Hey! So I’m playing on a mac M1 and using wine, but loading into battles takes a VERY long time… I’m talking like 3-5 mins per battle, is there a fix for this?
Controllers dont map properly on Joiplay
It means either doesn't work at all or doesn't work enough to play the game properly
Dang, any recommendations in that case?
If you've got an Apple Silicon Mac then you should be using the Whisky guide
I see... Then I will just stick with PC version then
Don't use a controller

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:
- 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!
- Where did you get the game files from? (Discord, links from discord, website, etc.?)
- Are you using the Launcher?
- Did you update from old files or install in a new folder?
- What version are you on? (Open the game, title screen says. Do not just say latest version!)
- What device are you playing on? (Windows Home/Pro, Android, Mac, etc.)
- 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.
Just the onscreen controls then? Is there any other emulator for android that can run pif?
Nope
For the on screen controls, map them using these references
?tag controller
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)

Beware of Unofficial Websites That Claim To Be Official.
The only official sources to download the game are here, the game's subreddit or the pokecommunity thread.
To clean out your computer:
- Delete all the save files from the fake files. It's not recommended to keep these, as they have bugs and fake data that the normal game doesn't have.
🔵 Your game folder has a shortcut that you double click namedSavefileto take you to the location to delete all save files. They are namedFile A.rxdata. - Delete any zipped/unzipped folders from there
- Run a virus scan

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)
hello i am on win 11 have the problem if i want install it i click on install update.batch smart app control wont open it if i start it as administrator the cmd say failed to download update and it closed . pls help
you'd need to tweak stuff on your end to let it through
unfortunately, that is something we can't assist with as it is outside the means of this channel
tweak stuff ?
yeah, tweak stuff, i.e., the smart app control and whatever else may be blocking the install
ah okay thanks

Omg, I'm stupid sorry I was on another save file IM SO SORRYYYY
I wasn't on my main file sorry

Its still pretty laggy. I also have issues with fine movements I'm assuming because of the lag

Any way to fix the movement issues at least?
Nothing outside of everything listed in the performance tips. Are you on version 6.7.2?
I assume I'm on the latest version, would downloading all the sprites help instead of downloading in the options?
If you want to download all the sprites then delete your current game and use the altdownload
You can't download spritepacks on the lightweight / launcher
?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. 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
That will only solve lag for encountering new Pokemon, though, it won't do anything for lag just running around
Hmm, alright thank you. One more thing and then I'm done, staryu I believe is invisible, I'm not sure which one of the random sprites it is though.
That would be a sprite issue then, which the altdownload would fix
If you want to stay on your current one, then you can use the missingsp tag to reset sprites to get Staryu fixed

How to transfer save files on Android
I updated the game and now infinite fusion closes itself a few seconds after I try to start is
the android guide goes over where to find you save.
then simply move it to the new install
?tag olddata
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:
- Delete your old launcher folder.
- Reinstall version 1.1.2 of the launcher from HERE (Yes, even if you're already on 1.1.2)
- Open the settings tab
- 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 inPIFLauncher(#.#.#)/GameFiles/InfiniteFusion - Install/Update the game files.
If you're not using the Launcher:
- Delete your old game folder.
- 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.

So…I’m garbage at understanding downloading directions even with pictures. I need verbal instructions. So I’ve not updated infinite fusion in a while. I think I’m on version 6.2.3
Is anyone willing to walk me through updating it? Like via screen share in dms?
too old. delete game files and reinstall from #downloads
I have followed the instructions downloading and installing the game. I chose the lite launcher. After everything is done, the game goes through the beginning scene with Gengar, but then goes black and nothing happens. Any suggestions? Ive tried redoing the process several times to no avail
How to update game on Android?
(Current version: 6.6.2)
Hey @trim isle!
How to Update to the Latest Version (Windows)
- If you're on or above 6.6.0 double click
INSTALL_OR_UPDATE.batto 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 reshuffleif you need help.
For Non-Windows devices (Android, Mac, Steamdeck, Linux, Chromebook): Check our extended guides post
because your install isnt the problem. your connection is
?tag wifi
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!

how can i play multiplayer?
Ok thanks
Ah so I’ll loose my save file?
there is no multiplayer.
no, on windows it will transfer automatically.
Sorry for this late reply, ended up in the hospital 💀
I left once i completed everything, I was talking to the officer once i beat Archer and it let me keep the pokemon i caught including the Diancie after I left the cave. It prompted me from that to end the quest, and it counted as completed.
Won't let me add media to the message already but here is my Ongoing quest list. Pinkan isn't there anymore. Rip diamond
how do I put it in the randomizer?
Hey @manic shadow! 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

Hey @paper junco! You cannot install this game on iPhone or iPad. This game is not a ROM Hack so Delta won't work and we are not planning to release an iOS version.
The battle thing
Ok both folders are completely deleted.
I’ll go ahead and redownload the game and hopefully itle be all good

Like fusion battles
if you mean the showdown stuff, that is separate and you can ask over in #showdown-general
Mild but I wanna do this right: Am I good to put the extracted folder elsewhere from the downloads folder?
I read somewhere that i can only play up to a certain version of the game on joiplay, I was wondering if that's true and if so what version and where can i download it?
Leave it in downloads
False. Joiplay is 100% compatible with our current version and backwards versions
?tag guides
All of our Official Guides to install the game are located here: [CLICK HERE FOR GUIDES](#tech-support message)
less an issue with joiplay, more an issue with android itself
every time the game updates, compatibility tends to go haywire; so a device that might be compatible with an older version of the game won't be with a newer version of the game
or it could remain just as compatible
it is a dice throw
in the dark
i just downloaded but if i use the install or update bat it just says failed to download, i left it in download
did the command prompt spit out any other error?
at the top it says couldn't find path twice, but as i said all i did was leave it in download and extract the zip
ok, when you extracted it, did you only extract the installer?
no everything
maybe the launcher will work, let me try that
don't
that isn't being properly maintained anymore and may get discontinued
@frozen grove hate to poke you when you may be out and about or busy, but any ideas on what is going on? we keep getting people pop in here with, as far as I can tell, properly followed guide instructions for the lightweight only for the command prompt to yell and say it can't find the specified path
I know I can just yeet the altdownload at their face, but if there's some shenanigans going on with the lightweight it feels important to get that figured out
same here, just in german lol
Yea, normally this is caused by the entire zip not being extracted.
that isn't the case for Bryan here; unless something borked with their extraction
in which case it is something missing in the REQUIRED_BY_INSTALLER or .git folder
i tried once with just right clicking the zip to extract all, get this problem, if i copy the whole zip and move it into a folder still get the same problem, i am sure verything is being extracted that can't be my issue
i say that to narrow it down
the more we can tick off in terms of "Ok, what broke" list, the easier it is to nail a fix
Lemme reinstall rq and make sure it’s not a global issue
Just to triple check, you downloaded from the guide in #downloads right? Using the first link and not the Google Drive backup?
-# the files should be the exact same but just wanna cover all bases
It hasn’t been touched in almost a year so 
i did not use the google drive one, i used this
Can you show me how you’re extracting?
windows key+shift+s gets you a snip tool for screenshots
then windows key+v to paste from clipboard
ah i didn't know i can only attach 3
Ye, and the logs didn’t save the images so I can’t actually see them
as i said i tried both i tried once with just right clicking the zip to extract all, get this problem, if i copy the whole zip and move it into a folder still get the same problem
Try extracting with WinRAR instead. On the WinRAR section, select “extract to InfiniteFusion/“
still the same issue, i honestly have no clue why
11, and i do have smart app control on, it blocks the bat if i just launch it so i launch it as admin, could this be the issue?
11 home or 11 pro?
i asked for specifics because this game and pro versions of windows don't get along
Launching via admin could also be the issue.
I remember megaman back in the day mentioning that the .bat file can shit itself when you do that
its home
but this stupid smart app control doesn't let me launch it without admin, there is no option to just "ignore"
that turns it off permanently
you can't do that temporarily
I personally never use windows smart app control because it uses their AI model to detect it and it comes up with a ton of false positives because of that
Windows defender is usually sufficient in my experience 
@modest blaze how did you fix this? did launching as admin work for you?
this guy also has it on and still got the game to work
so i saw a post, no idea how accurate this is, but it looks like windows made it so you can turn it off and on at will, it no longer requires a clean install of windows to turn it back on
I clicked the Link in discord to download it extract it update it and it says this
Do you have additional gamefiles in your folder?
Launch the game
I don’t I figured out what I did wrong
Now I’m trying to figure out how to play it without task bar at the bottom of my screen lol
You dont, you can only drag the game screen larger
You can hide the taskbar if you want
?tag fullscreen
Using the in-game option for Full Screen can strain your graphics card and lead to Graphics issues, flashing, green lines, and more.
We recommend setting the Screen Size option to a lower setting and dragging the corners of the window to make the screen larger instead for computers having issues.
You can also try updating your Graphics Drivers and seeing if that helps with certain graphical issues.
thanks for the guide link, i got up to the part where it says to put the commands into terminal and i'm not sure what exactly to do after that
i did that part, i just don't understand how to actually open or run the game
What system? Mac or Linux?
i did it through linux files
Hold on
the last command i put was wine infinitefusion.exe and it says /usr/bin/wine: 40: exec: /usr/lib/wine/wine: Exec format error
So I asked you if you used the Mac or Linux guide, and you said you used Linux
yeah, i was using linux
Not Linux the program, Linux the guide
sorry, one second
If you're using a Linux PC, then use the Linux guide in #downloads
i clicked the link under the chromebook guides and that's where it lead me
So your computer is a Chromebook then
yeah
Alright, now that makes sense
So you get an error when entering that last line of code
Did you check the video guide posted under "If you get an error with Wine"?
No, let me check it out real quick
You may not be able to fullscreen (Fullwindowed is fine but not Fullscreen!) but if you want you can hide the taskbar through the taskbar settings
No I got it full screened Ty

how do i move a save file from my phone to my pc?
Just grab the save file and send it to yourself
i did but it wont show up
Or connect your phone to your PC and drag and drop it
What was the name of the save file you moved, and where exactly did you put it?
from my phone i took File A and File H from backups and moved them to my pc in savefile/backups
You don't move backups, you move the current

Hey, I'm getting missing sprites for base 'mons after the update. What can I do to fix that?
It asked me if I wanted to live update my sprites, and when I go into the summary to change them all the alternate sprites are blank.
I think I solved it myself. Thanks for all you guys do!
currently trying to download the android version and its taking forever and i was wondering if anyone knows if its possible to download it on my pc,and transfer the whole downloaded file onto the tablet through cable to get it done faster,or has someone tried that and its about same or something? or messes stuff up somehow
Nope, have to use the android files
thats what i mean,download the android files on my pc,and just transfer the files directly to the tablet
sorry if it sounded like i was talking about the pc version
I suppose you could try downloading the android files and then moving them over, but we wouldn't be able to assist with that
Don't forget to extract them
when i start the game it stops working here any help?

Using the in-game option for Full Screen can strain your graphics card and lead to Graphics issues, flashing, green lines, and more.
We recommend setting the Screen Size option to a lower setting and dragging the corners of the window to make the screen larger instead for computers having issues.
You can also try updating your Graphics Drivers and seeing if that helps with certain graphical issues.

Bumping this in case it's a bug that's not documented yet (didn't wanna get in the way of other folks issues). I got a diamond from another quest so I'm not locked out of the necklace anymore.
I've got a question regarding the randomized mode. Whenever I play randomized mode with the gym typings randomized, the actual trainers and gym leader don't use only mon of that typing and seemingly have completely random mon. Is this intentional?
after i open and press play the launcher runs then instantly closes, real time protection is off and it doesnt say anything about it in the protection history i have unintalled and reinstalled it and it doesnt seem to be helping, any clues?
?tag olddata
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:
- Delete your old launcher folder.
- Reinstall version 1.1.2 of the launcher from HERE (Yes, even if you're already on 1.1.2)
- Open the settings tab
- 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 inPIFLauncher(#.#.#)/GameFiles/InfiniteFusion - Install/Update the game files.
If you're not using the Launcher:
- Delete your old game folder.
- 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.
it is a bug with the current version

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)
I tried another 7-8 Times It Always Said Its damaged what do i do i need Help.
did you try using the mobile alt link?
also, as a separate note, did you check to make sure your device wasn't listed as incompatible
I Had an old Version that worked but i deleted It cause i wasnt playing and that one did Work perfectly
just because an older version of the game worked on your device doesn't mean the current one will, unfortunately
android is well known for breaking compatibility every time the game gets an update

@candid anvil thx
One more question how do I get all of those cool fusions that I see on YouTube, I've downloaded the full sprite pack and when I try to fuse 2 pokemons together I doesn't give the one is saw
and you downloaded that because you plan to play entirely offline?
if not, then you shouldn't have downloaded that
if yes, you would have been better off with the altdownload
also, depending on how old those videos are, some sprites may have been removed
@verbal timber I didn't know before that you had to online but thx letting me know
if you need to play offline that is fine
there are people that live in areas with shitty internet
or are on the go frequently
assuming you are on pc, would just recommend deleting what you downloaded/installed [your saves will be fine] and using the altdownload files
?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. 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

i have cleared the cache, it enables some and disables others
so nothing i can do?
you could read the entire message
i did and it seems there's nothing i can do
If i have hit the cap that's that
it also says what to do if you think its not working 
oh yea the download custom sprites options in my game are turned on yes, its just that today i hopped onto the game and a message appeared saying there was a new update and download new sprites, i obviously clicked yes and then all went to shit.
that option was probably already turned on, as it is the default.
it just gives the heads up and option with a new pack.
so u're saying it wasn't the message then? bcuz i remember i had the carvanha sandshrew sprite and a few others working they dont simply show today for some reason
yeah the message does nothing on its own.
it doesnt start anything.
sprites are downloaded as you play on an individual basis, not in bulk due to the message
if you ran the updater for some reason, sprites will have been reset. and you would need to reset the cache.
if you did, they will repopulate over time as you play.
yea that's unfortunently what i did, alright gotcha, i'll see what will happen
just downloaded the game and when i am playing i do not see the pokemon in battle
any idea how to fix it
i dont even see my pokemon when battling

Hey y’all, this is obviously low priority cause I can roll with it but I frequently do randomized runs and I always randomize the gym types too, but in the most recent version it seems like the gym trainers/leader aren’t actually following the gym typing. For example, I just beat misty (who this run was a poison gym), but some Pokémon examples I faced in the gym were Pidgeot/paras, Persian/Trevanant, Swampert/Mewtwo, and Togekiss/Magneton. Not a poison Pokémon in sight near as I can tell lol
Hey @median urchin! 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
known bug, no fix
Alrighty, just figured I’d make sure it was on the radar if it wasn’t something I messed up lol
it is well on the radar, but frog is knee deep in hoenn
Coolio, thanks!
Hi, do any of you play on android? I got it working no problem but I'm struggling to make it "stretch" to fullscreen. There is no native way to do this is it? Do you know if I could achieve this with a plugin or something?
don't
fullscreen tends to stress gpus
i can't imagine it would do well on android
Thanks for the answer!
Why though? It's just aspect ratio, not resolution
The default resolution was 640x480 and I increased it to 720p and my phone had no trouble keeping the max fps
Didn't do anything for the screen size tho
?tag fullscreen
Using the in-game option for Full Screen can strain your graphics card and lead to Graphics issues, flashing, green lines, and more.
We recommend setting the Screen Size option to a lower setting and dragging the corners of the window to make the screen larger instead for computers having issues.
You can also try updating your Graphics Drivers and seeing if that helps with certain graphical issues.
Ah but dragging the corners of the window to make the screen wider would be fine for me
I don't know how to do it though
Thanks for the info anyway!
I got a question. I just updated my game havent touched it in a good 3-5 months because Victory road pissed me off. It doesnt launch, what can I do without wiping my progress?
Just tried to update and now im getting a Carmine speech bubble already exists error on start up. Tried reinstalling join joiplay & the plugins but still same error any ideas?
by it doesn't launch do you mean it outright refuses to open or?
It opens a window for like a split second then nothing happens

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:

- Reinstall version 1.1.2 of the launcher from HERE (Yes, even if you're already on 1.1.2)
- Open the settings tab
- 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 inPIFLauncher(#.#.#)/GameFiles/InfiniteFusion - Install/Update the game files.

So i just gotta stick with an old version? It worked 20 minutes ago?
each time the game updates, android compatibility breaks in some capacity
devices that might have worked on older versions may no longer work with newer versions
there is nothing we can do to remedy this
that specific error is an oddity as the only "fix" is to reinstall
if it persists, it means incompatible
Yeah the fresh install worked perfectly lol
Probably should've tried that first lmao
So I just picked up the game again after probably over a year and my old saves have the issue of my character being invisible aside from the hair and shadow. Is there a way to fix this or am I just gonna have to start fresh. Also what is the button to speed up the game?
Hey @latent sinew! To Speed Up your game, hold Q (or Spacebar if you are using Game-performance).
You can change the settings in game to be hold or toggle, see the image below!
- When set to Hold, the speed multiplier can be set up to x10
- When set to Toggle, the speed will cycle through x1, x2, and x3
Hold shift and run
thank you
Is there a way to see previous encounters in your save file - files
Playing a randomized run and dont remember where i battled the abra
not besides the dexnav
did you check your pokemon's summary screen?
when i enter certein areas the terrian goes black why is that and how do i fix that?
or if you mean by what encounters are on a route then you HAVE to use Radar
To fix:
- Delete the file
DownloadedSettings.rblocated in\InfiniteFusion\Data\Scripts - Rerun
INSTALL_OR_UPDATE.batinside your game folder or if using the app installer Installation Menu -> Update Game.
Do you have Pro?
pro what
Windows Pro
how do i check
Somewhere in your system settings will be a "PC Info" or "PC Specs"
Or ABout this PC, something like that
Yeah. Not 10 or 11, that's different
where would it say if its pro
It'll be either Home, Student, or Pro
its home
Okay good.
so how do i fix the random black terrian
What version of the game are you on? (will say in the upper right corner of the start menu)
Didnt catch it so
Get out of fullscreen if in it. Update your graphics driver, if it has any (can check online), and then restart your PC and launch the game after
is the driver the same as the card
unfortunately then you have to use radar to find it, which if you're trying to do the radar quest, you can get an abra in the reward corner for 200 coins iirc
that is if you haven't randomized gift pokemon
Yes. Sof or example if you have a Nvidia Geforce graphics card, you can use their Game Ready Driver updater
If you have an Intel then Idk if they have a program but you can always just Google your card and the most recent driver update will be on their official site
Its all good i found it
I accidentally mixed up some files and now I don't seem to have a list of the individual sprites for pokemon and a lot of them seem to be missing. any way to fix that?

i don't know what that means. but to clarify the sprite art in both the Battler folders are not showing
should I do another fresh install?
You're missing sprites from the folders because it hasn't downloaded them off the sprite sheets
Which if you read the whole message, you would know.
Have you seen ANY custom sprites at all, or have you seen 0 when playing the game for a period of time?
how do I get those files to download?
Again, you would know if you read the message.
They download as you play.
THese files come loaded with spritesheets. While playing, the game pulls these sprites in the sheets from the sprite repo as you encounter them in the game.
You keep Download Data turned on, make sure you an internet connection, the game does the rest.
?tag reading
You should try to read NPC dialogue! They give very good hints on how to continue the game. Sometimes they also give you items! Don't forget to talk to NPC's and read what they say.
though in this case, anything the Bot tells you
If you don't want to wait, or think your internet connection may not be available, you can use the altdownload, which has everything all ready to go, no waiting for it to pull from the sprite repo
The only reason this isn't the default option, is because most people don't (or cant) want to download over 252,000 images all at once (approx 2.5GB download)
if your connection is bad, that is like 4-6 hours of download/extraction
the only file in the battler folders are a .gitkeep file
i cant update mine
Hey @strong belfry!
How to Update to the Latest Version (Windows)
- If you're on or above 6.6.0 double click
INSTALL_OR_UPDATE.batto 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 reshuffleif you need help.
For Non-Windows devices (Android, Mac, Steamdeck, Linux, Chromebook): Check our extended guides post
Have you literally played the game, at all, since this duscussion
Why'sthat?
yes I currently have the game running and after noticing some of the sprites i had used previously were missing I tried to manually re-add them and accidentally duped every file from the odl version and then tried a fresh install to clean the duped files. then i noticed that even more custom sprites were missing from the pokedex
i got driver updater and it didnt say it could be updated
Send a picture of your game folders contents
i apologize for the issues I'm just not very good with tech like this and it's been a very long time
Did you get it from the official site of the company? like from Nvidia or from Ryzen, not just a generic updater? If you did it should say its fully up to date
If it is
before I tried a fresh install I had gone through these files to try and find the missing sprites and despite the sprites existing in the file I could not see them in the game. so I tried a fresh install and then the folders where just empty
It's fine i just want to check something in your folders
the game has changed so that you don't download the fusion sprites when you download the game, if you have connection to internet then the game will grab sprites as you see them, so that the NEXT time you see them, they will be there
i have a intel and i downloaded one called outbyte driver updater
this is largely to save peopel time and hassle from waiting 4-6 hours to play a game
I can also screenshot some of the missing sprites I currently have
or rather lackthereof
if its question marks
because I noticed these were issues with the pokemon in my party
no the sprites are just not present at all
that is due to the game cacheing them to download,
it only gives me the option for the autogenerated sprites and a handful of custom ones
that is normal once you hit the download cap
You can't just download any old updater, it has to come straight from the site. Use this OFFICIAL one
I feel absolutely stupid....
I am so sorry for wasting all of your time but I think i found the fix
the game can download up to X amount of sprites per Y time, (im using letters here because only the Dev knows the exact sprites that you can download per minute
what is it?
I just looked at the pinned messages and it had the fix right there. I went talked to the suited man in the pokecenter and manually downloaded all the sprites
he.... he doesn't do that
again i deeply apologize I just got worried since a clean install seemed to have removed the files entirley
Which one?
