[upbeat sage]

Probably just download cap

[quick plaza]

but how does that exactly work? do I just wait, close the game and reopen...?

[upbeat sage]

Just play more

[quick plaza]

okay

[verbal timber]

you play the game; battling and fusing
game pokes repo [assuming you have download data turned on and an internet connection]
X number of sprites are downloaded every Y interval
Z cap is reached
game is unable to poke repo until second Y interval it triggered
game resumes poking repo
rinse and repeat

[warm slate]

thank you

[fervent skiff]

How do I fix this ?

[dusty basin]

just a question about the updating. So I updated my launcher from 6.6 and it changed to 6.7.2, and i was wondering if that includes the latest sprites from the spritepack from 4/30/2026, or if i need to add that manually. I've never too sure, but just wanted to ask

[fervent skiff]

Panda, you're stupid, just talk to update man > fix game

[fervent skiff]

ಠ⁠︵⁠ಠ

[verbal timber]

ok so there's a few things in that

1. the launcher [which i assume you mean megaman's launcher] was discontinued
2. unless you need to entirely play offline, you should not be importing sprite packs into your game files

[manic shadow]

bhelp what is happening :((

[real fog]

This option is missing in my game

Please help

[dusty basin]

oh oof, yeah its labeled the PIFLauncher, ive had it on my computer for a long time and i dont play offline really, so that helps too.

[verbal timber]

because we removed it since it was cheating

[verbal timber]

would honestly recommend a full reinstall with fresh files

if you want one with all current sprite packs, use the preloaded download

[real fog]

How

[verbal timber]

that wand is joiplay exclusive cheat stuff

if you want cheats, earn them

[real fog]

I am using joyplay

[verbal timber]

yes

and see again

we removed that option

[real fog]

Why

[verbal timber]

becuase it was cheating

[dusty basin]

yeah, i'll do that, i was gonna do that but i couldnt find the uninstall launcher option on my computer at first, but i figured out how, thank you too

[verbal timber]

see rules 23 and 24

i'd poke the bot but he's ded jim

so i do this instead

if you want to cheat, you can earn it

[real fog]

How

[verbal timber]

^this

[real fog]

What?

[verbal timber]

click that message and read

[real fog]

I have to catch 501 pokemon for that

That's insane

[verbal timber]

[night tiger]

My saved data isn’t showing up-

[verbal timber]

check the folder where saves are stored

[fervent skiff]

"I have to play the game to unlock new features, that's insane"

(Pokeradar makes completing the Pokédex so much easier btw)

[verbal timber]

if it is there but not showing in game, it means it got corrupted

[verbal timber]

people don't want to play the game in order to play the game

they want to do stuff their way

[night tiger]

Where would that be-? I’m new to all this

[opal nymph]

question, i'm on 6.7 and the downloads page says it's on 6.7.2, but the way it's showing me to update (through something that should already be in the game files) isn't there in my game files. what should I do?

[turbid terrace]

Hey @opal nymph!

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).
• 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

[opal nymph]

yeah, that thing - the "install or update" doesn't exist

[fervent skiff]

Yeah, but what about respecting the work of developers ?
What's the point of playing a game and wanting to cheat ?

[night tiger]

This?

[verbal timber]

if windows, roaming app data

if not windows, check your guide

[verbal timber]

double click the folder named savefile

that is the shortcut

[fervent skiff]

You unlock "cheats" by completing the Pokédex, so you might as well enjoy the game. You'll also have time to take advantage of the cheats in Endgame

[night tiger]

So this

[opal nymph]

that's actually a helpful screenshot for my issue too lol, under "infinitefusion-performance" there is not "INSTALL_OR_UPDATE"

[verbal timber]

ye

that means that File A save is dead

[night tiger]

Why?

Is there a way I can get my run back? It was my first one

[verbal timber]

do a flavor, can you grab a screenshot of the entire folder all the game files are in from here [including the file path at the top]

[night tiger]

Or like it’s gone gone

[verbal timber]

there are backups, but unless we fix the problem it will happen again

[night tiger]

ok so bad timing I have to go irl now, so I’ll be back:/

[opal nymph]

alright, i'll see if it goes differently this time (i could've sworn i did it the official way using current links to start with, i literally downloaded it yesterday lol but we'll see)

[verbal timber]

this just covers bases

make sure to follow the guide from here [in the pins] exactly

assuming nothing borks

[opal nymph]

👍 was about to ask another question that i'm sure the pins will answer, i'll go use my resources now thank you!

[verbal timber]

after all is said and done, your game folder should look something like

if not, then we go a different route

[opal nymph]

i think we're good 👍 i was gonna ask how to move/keep the save files but honestly i barely made any headway in the saves i had so it's easier just to start over thank you!

[fervent skiff]

Oh... That doesn't sound good

[opal nymph]

oh somehow it kept them anyway

[fervent skiff]

I can hear the game music now even when I'm not in the app, and the game is frozen

[turbid terrace]

Hey @fervent skiff! 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 after the intro animation, turn off your internet and try again. If the issue persists, turn off download data as well. (This will cause missing sprites if you used the lightweight installer!)
• If you get the message while in game, this means your computer is struggling.

I currently see the .png in the indicated file, it's the first shiny I've encountered so far

[warm slate]

I get this notification when trying to start a game, then it crashes.

[verbal timber]

corrupted save file

[warm slate]

This popped up when starting a new game.

[verbal timber]

and yet according to that error, you already have a save that is corrupted

[little lodge]

You have a corrupt file fucking with autosave

[warm slate]

awsome thank you

[little lodge]

Np

[peak dune]

what are some cool sprites, i just started playing

[verbal timber]

not a tech support question

[peak dune]

oops sorry

[fluid agate]

hey, i got an issue with pif, i updated it using the install/update batcher, now none of the .exe's work

[kindred crystal]

Delete all game files and do a fresh install

[fluid agate]

are my save files inside the main file path

[kindred crystal]

No

[fluid agate]

ah alr

[hardy sandal]

hiya, anyone around for some support on the install?

Been stuck here for 20 mins or so after...

[kindred crystal]

What guide is this?

[hardy sandal]

Win

Wine for Mac

is hter a way to track progress?

[kindred crystal]

Not that I'm aware of, I don't remember this happening when installing though.

What step did this happen on?

[hardy sandal]

step 2 lol xD

I pasted /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

hit my password, and hit enter

reckon its a case of terminate and start again?

[kindred crystal]

I would just let it do its thing

It's likely installing smoething it needs to run this. If it persists, you can always try going to the next command and see if it works. It'll tell you if it didn't take once you go on, usually

THen if there is an error from there, you can start back at the beginning.

[hardy sandal]

thanks man

[fluid agate]

is the error i just got one i can ignore or did somethin get borked?

the game seems to be working despite the error so i assume so?

[verbal timber]

you're all guchi, the error has been around for a bit, but the installer forced theitem through

[fluid agate]

ah, dope

that was a weird ahh typo lmao

[muted path]

I was playing the game earlier today I stopped for a bit and then tried to start it up and now it just shows a black screen after the intro with gengar and nidran but it still plays the music like normal how do i fix it.

[gritty dock]

Hey I’m live and I can’t see my chat when I click on the game . How do I make it borderless windowed

[kindred crystal]

You don't

Just change the size of the game manually by grabbing the edges

[gritty dock]

I can’t

[gritty dock]

It makes it fullscreen like a normal game bro.

[kindred crystal]

Get out of fullscreen, then drag

Go to your options and set screen size to medium

I don't even see the intro animation can only hear the music

can anyone help?

[kindred crystal]

DO what the bot is saying above.

You can try running in performance mode if it persists

[short estuary]

so borderless fullscreen is making my game flickoer and freak out. i want to change the settings but the game isnt reacting to my key presses

[mental galleon]

Please only post your issue in one channel.

[kindred crystal]

Don't double post

[short estuary]

my bad, i put it in gameplay on accident and was gonna move it here but then someone replied

[wispy tree]

my sprites are like all missing how do i fix it

[tough hound]

?tag missingsp

[wispy tree]

sorry?

[tough hound]

Damn it bot

One sec

Read this

[wispy tree]

thanks

ive just unistalled and im gonna do a freash re insrtall

[golden bridge]

How do i remap buttons on an xbox controller? when i go to the f1 menu and press the buttons while trying to remap nothing happens\

[tough hound]

you need to set the game up in steam

[golden bridge]

dang now my friends will know im ignoring them to play infinite fusion

[hardy idol]

pretty sure you can turn off your online status there

[golden bridge]

oh true youre right who knew the infinite fusion tech support would also help me be anti social

[tough hound]

thats what we are here for

you only need to play the game and nothing else

[sinful tangle]

hi! i just installed the game and started a new randomized file. for some reason my milotic/minior fusion is listed as two separate pokemon and the custom sprite is only available for the second one, number 250334. the one in my party is the first one, number 249833. it displayed the custom sprite for my first battle with my rival, but now it's just the default sprite. i tried clearing the sprite cache and resetting displayed alt sprite as suggested in the sprite issues message. any additional suggestions?

[tough hound]

minior has 2 forms

[hardy idol]

both of those 2 dex numbers returned fully different pokes adonis

[tough hound]

the bot has been updated with the hoenn mons

[hardy idol]

should all the kanto ones keep their normal dex numbers?

[tough hound]

thats a great question
also something for a bot manager or the admins to figure out

[hardy idol]

okies

[mental galleon]

Pokedex numbers in the game differ from the sprite png names

[sinful tangle]

ahhh so would one be for minior's shielded version and the other be for minor's broken shield version?

[tough hound]

yes

[hardy idol]

had i done the check correctly in the bot channel?

[tough hound]

right, we are talking bout the bot command for the dex numbers and in the game
but the bot has already been updated for hoenn, for whatever reason

[sinful tangle]

that makes sense, thanks for helping!

[fluid agate]

in the full sprite back theres a file called .ds_store, wut exactly is it?

[tough hound]

dont use the packs

[fluid agate]

im not rly fond of the online download ngl, i dont have problems with it itself, when i have online downloads i notice more and more invisible sprites, which was why i downloaded the pack

also is there a reason as to why im not supposed to use the packs

[tough hound]

use the preloaded in #downloads

[river silo]

whats the best way of getting pif running on macos rn without paying for crossover?

[tough hound]

we have a wine guide

wine is free

[river silo]

that guide just looks so much scarier....

[tough hound]

im not sure what answer you want then

[hardy sandal]

🙁

opt folder is empty

[tough hound]

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.

[hardy sandal]

Yes, sorry you’re right

It 7am before work and I’m beat

I’m attempting to install but my opt folder is empty, that’s the last line of code and response from my Mac terminal

[tough hound]

you didnt answer any of the questions

[fluid agate]

is updating the sprites automatically online download? (im on preloaded)

[neat crag]

umm, none of the download links are working for me, ive tried other browsers and they arent loading the links

[hardy sandal]

I thought that answered most of them…

1. I’m attempting to install but my opt folder is empty, that’s the last line of code and response from my Mac terminal
2. Link from discord
3. No.
4. New.
5. I can’t open the title screen yet.
6. Mac.
7. Screenshot attached.

[neat crag]

nvm i got it to download

[tough hound]

which link from discord
cause you should be using the wine guide
which tells you how to fix this

[tough hound]

yes, and if youre playing offline you dont need to have it on

[hardy sandal]

I am using the wine guide

[fluid agate]

alr

[hardy sandal]

The fixes do not solve the issue

[night tiger]

Ok I’m back

[hardy sandal]

I just keep getting no such file or directory: /opt/homebrew/bin/brew

[night tiger]

So

I lost my save data is there a way to get that back

this is my first time playing the game and I really would like to know if it’s possible

I was up to 14 hours

[hardy idol]

lost how?

[tough hound]

[night tiger]

It says new game

Like the save is not there anymore

Is there anything I can do ?

[tough hound]

try a back up save

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 transferring a save from Android to PC (or vice-versa), you will need to reload the map either by leaving and re-entering or using the debugger in the key items pocket of your bag.
• 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.

[night tiger]

How does that work

Oh

Is this automatic?

[agile cradle]

is it a error or buf?

bug*

[tough hound]

Performance Issues - Freezing? Lag? Long Black/Loading Screens? First try restarting the game. If the issue persists, [Click Here!](#tech-support message)

[night tiger]

This?

How do I transfer a copy of the save?

Can anyone explain that

[tough hound]

read what i sent

[night tiger]

I did. But how does the file transfer work? I’m not a computer person this is my first time doing any of this

[night tiger]

So I copy this I get that right?

is anyone able to help currently-?

🥲

[fallow wyvern]

Everything is explained on what the bot said

If I explain, I'll just repeat what the bot says

[night tiger]

I tried following it but I’m confused about files in general-

Ok

I have the backup I believe

So where do I put it at?

[night tiger]

I copy this and put it somewhere I know

[fallow wyvern]

Take the latest file
Copy it
Paste it on the saves file
Delete your current File_A in saves
And rename the one you got "File_A.rxdata"

[fallow wyvern]

Is it understandable for you ?

[night tiger]

Ok so rename it here, then delete file A correct?

(And sorry for being slow/dumb)

[fallow wyvern]

No, don't delete the File A in your backup file (if so you lose all your backup), delete the one in your saves file

[night tiger]

When I go to saves it shows this

So I don’t have a save file then in general?

It only shows backups

[fallow wyvern]

Ok so just throw the File_A you've just rename here

[hardy idol]

well. perhaps you did

[night tiger]

what happened to it-

[night tiger]

Okay

[night tiger]

Okay

Did that

[night tiger]

Now what

Or is that it

[fallow wyvern]

Done

I'm not available anymore, so if you have any problems, wait for someone else

[night tiger]

Thanks for your help either way!

It didn’t seem to work still showing no saved

Does anyone know what I did wrong or if there is anything else I can do to fix it?

[hardy idol]

oh!

Rename the file and Remove the _ and just have a space in there

[night tiger]

Okay+

[hardy sandal]

gosh this is unfortunate

there is no option to open with wine stable

[night tiger]

Doesn’t seem to work either-

Man I’m sorry guys

[hardy idol]

Does the file say. File A.rxdata?

[night tiger]

I believe so

Exactly like this correct?

[hardy idol]

yes

[night tiger]

Yes it does say that

But it still shows new game

I really don’t wanna restart since this was my first run and i already put 14 hours into it, but should I give up?

I don’t wanna but I know you can only try so hard

I just wish I knew why my save was gone

[hardy sandal]

Hi guys, I'm a little confused with the instal proceedure. I've been able to instal Wine and homebrew, however my /opt/ folder is empty. Atempting to open the game with Wine leads to this. Any help?

Is that this "If you get an error that Wine is not compatible with your OS, you need to upgrade the OS or install WineSkin without Wine."?

SOrry for the badgering guys 😉

[night tiger]

Is the blue swirl a problem?

[hardy sandal]

any help 🙂

[lethal crypt]

my game crashes as it opens and normally says it failed to load a script, any way to fix this?

[verbal timber]

your mac needs to be on 14.5 or higher for its OS

[verbal timber]

is your save still in the savefile folder location?

if yes, then it got corrupted

[verbal timber]

?tag screenshot

and the bot is still dead

windows key+shift+s = built in snip tool for windows
windows key+shift+v = clipboard to post snips

[verbal timber]

we aren't psychic, what is your issue

[lethal crypt]

Its always this or something similar

[verbal timber]

ok, not a usual error we see

where did you download from?

just covering bases because weird errors often mean fake files

[lethal crypt]

from here, and ive redownloaded twice now to try to fix the files and that didnt work

[verbal timber]

ok, is this happening right when you open the game, or when you try to load into your save?

[lethal crypt]

sometimes it just crashes when i open it, but if it gives me that error its always a random time. im trying to start a new game

[verbal timber]

ok, what i want you to do, is this

but, instead; use the preloaded download link

that comes pre-setup

so no need to "install" stuff

just follow the guide and you should be good to go

if that happens again

then something on your end is causing the problem

and unfortunately, we can't help fix that

[lethal crypt]

lol fair enough, ill try that real quick

[lethal crypt]

that still didnt work, is there a way to install an older game version?

[verbal timber]

not in the normal sense no

the "newest" old version we have for download, via the wiki

is 3 years old

and is not compatible with the current game in any capacity

[lethal crypt]

ah okay

[verbal timber]

yeah

but with the preloaded version failing, something on your pc is the problem

plus i doubt an older version would solve the issue, you'd likely hit a completely different error that has since been fixed

[lethal crypt]

i just know when i used to play the icon for the exe looked different so i thought it was older, it ran fine until i updated it earlier

[hardy sandal]

my mac is 15.7

[hardy sandal]

@verbal timber was this...

[hardy sandal]

assumed this could be a fix?

[hardy sandal]

Just not sure how to proceed

[verbal timber]

yeah since that is more of a your end thing, we can't help with that

[kindred crystal]

Turn off your security settings preventing you from downloading / running unverified programs

[quiet yacht]

so there's there exes which do i use game.exe or infinite fusion.exe or performence.exe

[little lodge]

game and infinitefusion do the exact same thing

Performance should only be used if you cannot run the game through any other means

[crude pulsar]

How difficult is it to run Infinite Fusion on Android based devices? I got an Odin 2 Portal Pro and i'd be very curious if I could run this on the go with an offline installer or something.

[little lodge]

We have a guide specific to Android devices. I'd say follow the android guide (and hope it's compatible)

[tall pendant]

im having some issues installing the game, would anyone mind helping me with my issue?

[crude pulsar]

Yeah I ended up finding the guide, now hoping it works cause it would be great to have this on the go

[little lodge]

Let us know how it goes

[verbal timber]

depends on the issue

we aren't psychic so without info, we can't help

[little lodge]

Whoops I didn't even see that message

[tall pendant]

the links arnt opening the install

at least through the download section on the discord

[little lodge]

The links should open the guides

And the installs are in the guides

[crude pulsar]

Yes, is there a place I can report my device as confirmation it works, to help people out in the future?

[little lodge]

Here's fine!

[tall pendant]

i tried on a different browser too but i got the same thing

[crude pulsar]

Alright, currently unpacking, it took about 6-8 minutes to unpack the game files as opposed to the 45 minutes stated

[verbal timber]

try a vpn then

some countries coughUKcough have been fighting against links they think are "unsafe"

if both fail, then there is literally nothing we can do

[tall pendant]

know any free vpns?

plus im in america so idk if that would be the issue lol

[verbal timber]

what browsers have you tried?

i know operagx hates our stuff

[crude pulsar]

Opera GX has an included VPN

[tall pendant]

i use opera

[verbal timber]

and it hates us

[crude pulsar]

Othnerwise try Proton VPN, it has a free version

[little lodge]

I might be able to try something

[tall pendant]

but i also tried microsoft edge

[crude pulsar]

Strange, I only use Opera GX and it works fine o.o

[verbal timber]

the links work fine for me, so might be something on your end

could just be a simple handshake issue between your device and the sites

that we can't fix

[crude pulsar]

Couldn't they use let's say their phones to try and download the files then transfer them to their pc?

[little lodge]

The guides themselves won't load as well

[tall pendant]

so what should i do about this?

[little lodge]

Did you miss Crimson's message about Proton

[little lodge]

.

[crude pulsar]

Oh...

[tall pendant]

it worked

the vpn

[little lodge]

[tall pendant]

thank you guys

[crude pulsar]

@little lodge Okay so. I have news. It does run. However, I cannot interact with the escape button. It does nothing. All the others do work.

[crude pulsar]

Glad it helped ya! I used Proton to access a game I paid for a bit early once, and I remembered it being free so I figured it'd help ya

[little lodge]

Are you able to go to your options and do what it's saying in the guide?

Without Escape

[crude pulsar]

Okay so I was folowwing the guide, it was asking me to press escape, but it wasn't working. However I managed to navigate still through the normal on screen buttons to change the two options

However now I do have one issue

I cannot figure out how to map those gamepad buttons because none of the things written there make any sense

Okay I think I am managing it lol

This part help?

[harsh cradle]

my game is displaying the incorrect sprites, there's default sprites over the top of what's meant to be custom sprites, ive tried:

• restarting the game
• restarting my pc
• updating the files
• clearing the sprite cache
• redownloading the sprites

im not really sure what else to do

there's also quite a lot of missing or glitched sprites

[crude pulsar]

know what? Yes. I was basically going through each buttons in menus to map them out, this will be faster

[harsh cradle]

the game is installed on a portable drive if that affects anything?

[little lodge]

That affects a lot actually. It doesn't like external drives

[harsh cradle]

i see

[verbal timber]

it should be on your main drive in the downloads folder

[harsh cradle]

would drag and dropping the game folder be fine or would it be better to fresh install onto the main drive?

[verbal timber]

you can drag/drop the game folder

[harsh cradle]

awesome

[verbal timber]

not sure if the saves are in the portable drive or not

so you may need to move those as well

[harsh cradle]

we'll find out

[crude pulsar]

@little lodge Alright so I confirm that for Ayn devices such as Odin, Odin 2 series and Thor series, it is perfectly playable and ultra easy to install. It took me about a total of 10 minutes to extract/verify the files. The whole process took like.. 15 minutes to install, with an extra 2-3 minutes due to me being funni and trying to figure out buttons

[little lodge]

What is your specific device? Cause they can be different depending

[crude pulsar]

Mine is the Ayn Odin 2 Portal Pro.

I can confirm that the Odin 2 and the Ayn Thor both run on the exact same infrastructure and internal components, as well as the same android version.

[little lodge]

Thanks

[crude pulsar]

Not a problem, I am enjoying this fan game so much and I figured hey, if I can carry this with me everywhere on an OLED display, it will be peak

I figured other people with such devices might be interested too

[verbal timber]

the only real crux issue; if something updoots [the game or the device]

high chance it will just decide to no longer work

such is the downside of android

[crude pulsar]

updoots??

[little lodge]

Prolly updates

[verbal timber]

yes, updoots

[little lodge]

trumpet

[turbid terrace]

DOOTDOOT

[little lodge]

idles

[verbal timber]

but yeah, the game updating or the os of the device getting an update tend to break compatibility for android

[crude pulsar]

Ahh, well the odin isn't a phone device, it cannot force me to update anything.

[turbid terrace]

Hey @crude pulsar!

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).
• 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

[crude pulsar]

Just wanted to say thanks to the entire team here. All the sprite makers, all the programers, all the helpers. Thanks a LOT for making this amazing thing 🥰

Hi everyone , i came back again , like 2 month past ago i had some crashes , now the probleme still here , i download the game like in the tuto , i tkink the problem is Win11 , but i don't want and can't retrun on Win10 , does anyone can help me , ↓ here a screen of one crash (btw some time it don't show any messages , just crash and nothing)

[verbal timber]

that is not an issue of windows 11

that issue is something related to permissions/lack of access

[verbal timber]

where do you have your game folder stashed

[stiff igloo]

Where it's download ? On D disc

[verbal timber]

is D your main drive?

and then further afield, is it in your download folder

[stiff igloo]

Nop , my main is an SSD C:Disc , and when i was on win10 it was on D:Disc also

[verbal timber]

generally, the game being on any drive other than your main one can throw a fit concerning permission problems

basically the game is trying to do something but isn't able to due to either the location of the files, or improper permission access

in that instance it looks like it is trying to access/change something concering sprite credits

[stiff igloo]

So i need to take my PkmnIF out of D:Disc for like Dowload folders ?

[verbal timber]

yes, you should keep it on your main drive in the downloads folder

that spot has the most permissions/access on your entire pc

[stiff igloo]

Okay , i will try it thx , i came back if it crash again (Btw sry for my english i'm only b1~2)

[verbal timber]

you can just drag/drop or cut/paste the entire InfiniteFusion folder from where you have it to that new location

no worries

[stiff igloo]

Question , does Run at an admin the game should can help ?

And i again have a crash messages

[verbal timber]

hm, different error

not sure what that one means tbh

[stiff igloo]

Yup , the game was on Download folders

[verbal timber]

the shorter the error the harder it is for me to figure out the cause of it

you might have to wait for a Porygon to be available to assist

[stiff igloo]

I think it's an issue for textures basicly , i think , i'm not an expert

[stiff igloo]

Okay i will wait , who is Porygon ?

[tough hound]

Tech support

Send a screenshot of your game folder

[stiff igloo]

Here it is (sry it's in french if u need some details)

You're not inconveniencing us, this is lit our job :>

you get paid for this /j

[stiff igloo]

LMAO

[short estuary]

How do i reload an old save? I killed moltres!

[stiff igloo]

No i say that cause i always say it , it's like in frensh an respect issue

[little lodge]

If anyone wants a translation

[little lodge]

Where's your game located on your PC

[stiff igloo]

Now on download files

[short estuary]

Ty

Ha the tag is not working 😅

Bot is taking a nap

[little lodge]

Dyno's down for maintence

[short estuary]

😢

[little lodge]

Here I'll get you the tag

[little lodge]

Did the error occur after anything specific?

[short estuary]

Thanks friend

[stiff igloo]

Here it was when i try to open the outfit settings , but sometime when it down , i just walk (run in the game)

[little lodge]

And where did you get your game files from?

[stiff igloo]

From the site itself from https://discord.com/channels/302153478556352513/926866111948001341 by Ymirbot the March 28 2026

[little lodge]

Alright so here's all I can think of right now

Reinstall. It looks like there may have been movement between drives so just delete and reinstall

[stiff igloo]

by Lightweight Installer Link or Preloaded Installer Link ?

[little lodge]

Try lightweight first. If Lightweight still gives the error use Preloaded

That's fine

[stiff igloo]

ok

[little lodge]

It does that with scripts

[stiff igloo]

Okay , now it's reinstall at the good place

[little lodge]

Alr so let's make sure it works

[stiff igloo]

I lunch the game , and pouf* no game lunch

With no error messages or issue explain

[little lodge]

Interesting. Go ahead and use preloaded in that case

[cerulean roost]

WHy does my game close when it opens the discord invite?

[verbal timber]

where did you get the game files from?

the game is asking that question

the answer you are choosing is making the game think you got it from an unsafe place

[cerulean roost]

Ohhhhh

so i should say discord?

[verbal timber]

if that is where you got the game files from, then yes

[cerulean roost]

sweet thank you

[stiff igloo]

Same crash issuie , now it's when i open the menu

[verbal timber]

then yeah, something on your end is causing some jank if it is still happening even with the preloaded files

[stiff igloo]

Yup ...

[verbal timber]

you know, never thought to ask

do you have home or pro

[stiff igloo]

Family , i think

[verbal timber]

ah

that'd do it

the game is only really properly compatible with home

other versions of windows have extra stuff the game doesn't like

[stiff igloo]

Awsome

[verbal timber]

time to google if you can swap off family to home

[stiff igloo]

I hope so

[verbal timber]

if you can, that might fix it

[stiff igloo]

I take family cause it was the only who work for switch to win11

Others don't want to work when i wanna take them , i try again and again like 13 hours for it

I do some research and "Family" is home , just in french we say Familly and not Maison (Home)

[upbeat sage]

?tag altdownload

Ah. Right

Half sec

[stiff igloo]

np

[upbeat sage]

Try this

[little lodge]

That's the preloaded I already had them use

[upbeat sage]

Gah

[upbeat sage]

Could you describe your device

[stiff igloo]

Thx Cheeto i was looking fot it and don't understand

[upbeat sage]

Is it like. Good

[little lodge]

If preloaded did not work for you, the issue is 100% something with your computer

[stiff igloo]

Asus Prime Z790-A Wifi
Intel core i9 13900KF 13th Gen
Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080
Dominator Platinium 32gb (2x16) DDR5

[stiff igloo]

Yeah maybe , but on win10 like 1-2 years maybe it works

[upbeat sage]

And I assume other games have been working fine

[stiff igloo]

All , not , Subnautica 2 had some little issue i fix but it's an Early Accès (And vanguard do some poop by the pase but i stop play valorant)

-# We know vanguard is .... bad

[little lodge]

Windows 10 Pro or Home?

[stiff igloo]

I don't remember sry

[little lodge]

Check please

[stiff igloo]

How ?

[little lodge]

Actually

[stiff igloo]

Wait

I'm not on Home win11 , mybad , i'm on Pro...

[little lodge]

Use this

[upbeat sage]

Well, that’ll do it

[little lodge]

So you aren't on win 10

[limber pelican]

ah that would do it

[stiff igloo]

no Win11 pro

[little lodge]

Pro is a 50/50 whether it'll work. Win 11 Pro works on my PC but not for everyone

[little lodge]

Sorry I meant aren't lol

[hexed saffron]

I have a shiny entei but it breaks the game everytime i select it from my party, what do i do?

Do i have to make a new save?

[hearty thorn]

Hey so I followed the Android guide for the AYN Thor and have tried looking through the Discord on how to set up the buttons but nothing makes sense to me. Does anyone have a list of buttons they used to set up the device?
I keep seeing the Keybinds image but it's not how it looks on my game. Trying to understand what to map where.

[steep moss]

I play using a controller and i have a couple issues. 1: I can't run for some reason? the animation changes, but goes the same speed as alking before shooting off across the screen. 2: hen I select asn option it seems to hit that button tice? like I'll get stuck in menu loops bc it keeps double tapping, basically. That one may be my controller though. I have tried using keyboard controls instead but they do not ork.

and neither does the key beteen q and e apparently

[little lodge]

1: Try toggling autorun in the options
2: Probably your controller

Make sure to check your keybinds as well

[steep moss]

thank you

[slim temple]

Hello, does anyone know how to solve this problem in my game? It appeared out of nowhere when I tried to enter the game.

[hearty thorn]

Seems no matter how I remap my buttons nothing changes when I close and open the games. I've saved, tried Joey's Retro Handhelds guide. Key mapping is so confusing here and the defaults are unplayable.
Anyone with an AYN Thor get this working?

[wise nova]

Anyone knows how to fix this? Or is it my phone

[verbal timber]

you'll need to redo everything, that error means either something borked with the initial download or extraction

[wise nova]

Thanks

[thin badger]

is there a fix for the pc boxes lagging? my friend & I both struggles with that on powerful computers

[hexed saffron]

Guys, i have a shiny entei but no matter what i try, selecting it crashes the game, i cant release it either

[limber pelican]

turn off fusion icons aka change them to the dna symbols

[hexed saffron]

Does this mean my shiny entei is cursed?

[hearty thorn]

I got it working and easily mappable but I had to download the most recent releases of joiPlay and it's RPG Maker plugins from the patreon.
AYN Thor controller mapping works fairly well this way.

[verbal timber]

try changing the sprite in the dex

[mental galleon]

Alright, so you downloaded from the discord like you said earlier, but what is the name of the device your playing on and what version are you on?

[verbal timber]

someone else reported a similar issue and fix

[hexed saffron]

I did but even then selecting it from the pc still crashes the game

[mental galleon]

You can change the sprite that shows in the Pokedex, just select entei and move to sprites

[hexed saffron]

Im using a samsung galaxy a55

[hexed saffron]

I just said that i tried changing its sprite but that still crashes the game when i select it on the pc storage

[mental galleon]

You're trying to do it from the pc. We're asking you to try from the Pokedex in your quick menu

get out of the pc, open your menu and select your Pokedex, find Entei and change its sprite

[hexed saffron]

I JUST SAID, I CHANGED ITS SPRITE FROM THE POKEDEX, THEN I GO TO MY PC AND SELECTED IT AND THATS WHAT HAPPENS

Let me show you rq

[mental galleon]

OH

<- Reading moment

[hexed saffron]

🤦‍♂️

[mental galleon]

My bad

Anyway

Checked off that A55 is on the compatible list, you're good there

[hexed saffron]

I knew that, bc its working for me

[mental galleon]

Doesn't hurt to double check lol

[limber pelican]

might just need a fresh install since i think the shiny script is not there

[hexed saffron]

Wait, what if i made the file itself?

Would that do anything?

[mental galleon]

I'm thinking either that or asking the Help Man to reset the sprite cache,

but I'm not a techy person

[hexed saffron]

I tried that too but that didnt work either

[mental galleon]

Alright, then you may have to wait for one of the actual tech support peeps to come by and assist. I'm sorry that I didn't understand what you were saying before and that I wasn't really much help

[mental galleon]

Would you be willing to try a fresh reinstall?

[hexed saffron]

But my progress 🥲

Im on 6 badges and i wanna make a meloetta based team

[mental galleon]

hold on

there's a portion of the android guide that goes over updating the game, which involves moving your save data so it isn't touched

[hexed saffron]

Ok

[little lodge]

What's the issue

[mental galleon]

Shiny entei crashes the game even after selecting a different sprite from the pokedex

Downloaded from here, is using a listed compatible device, but unknown version rn

[little lodge]

Interesiting.

[mental galleon]

Feels like the actual doctor walked in on nursing students

[little lodge]

Also Tainted I know I'm late to the party but let's not text-yell please. You could have politely said "That's what I just said"

[hexed saffron]

Sorry

[little lodge]

It's fine

[hexed saffron]

Also, whats the latest version of infinite fusion? Im gonna update the game on my end bc of this issue i have with my shiny entei

[little lodge]

6.7.2

[hexed saffron]

You just HAD to include THAT number didnt you? Jk jk

[little lodge]

[velvet snow]

Does anyone have any idea why this fusion doesn't have any graphics? I tried uploading the image directly, but it still isn't showing up – any ideas on how to fix this? (Rockruff/Ralts)

[wanton yarrow]

just clarifying when hitting start new game it doesnt overide the previous save file/game correct?

[little lodge]

Correct

You have 8 save slots :>

[wanton yarrow]

alright just making sure thanks!

[little lodge]

Np

[gilded mountain]

I just got back into the game after like a year or so, and I was able to update the game fine, but some of my fused Pokemon's sprites are no longer present, I tried changing it in the pokedex, but the one with the artist name under it was the same as the default one. It gave me the option to update the sprite list after I restarted, but it didn't change anything. Is there something else I could try?

Is it just the school dress?

[crude pulsar]

seems like it so far

i also have these

[little lodge]

Alr.. I don't want you to have to do a full reinstall for a dress.

[crude pulsar]

ah it fixed itself, but sometimes there's lines popping up on textures but it ain't that bad

[crude pulsar]

I mean, i expect some issues due to this being emulation of a Windows App

[rocky pollen]

Anyone else have latios/latias load forever upon trying to encounter?

[little lodge]

Sounds like it may be a performance issue on your end. Try turning off Download Data and encounter again

[crude pulsar]

@little lodge i do have another thing but idk if it is normal.
seems like a lot of dex entries don't exist

[little lodge]

Don't exist? Like the option is blank?

[crude pulsar]

for example

[rocky pollen]

I think in the settings if you set it as only custom entries it’ll show you that. Most entries are just two entries split in half and mooshed together

[little lodge]

[crude pulsar]

It's not a big issue, but i almost never see this on PC, which is why I was wondering

[little lodge]

You can turn on autogen dex entries in the options tho

[crude pulsar]

maybe that is enabled by default on pc and that's why.

yeah that fixed it

[little lodge]

I dunno. Pokemon with user written dex entries will show that dex entry even with the autogen ones off

[rocky pollen]

Also my playthrough is marked randomized but I never turned on random and all settings are set to off

[crude pulsar]

Mine on android shows classic but it's all randomized. and in game it is random so it might still be okay for you

[rocky pollen]

Data download worked thanks :)

[little lodge]

Np

[crude pulsar]

@little lodge the lines I was talking about. Is that just a quirk of playing on Android or is there a setting in the app I have to change?

[little lodge]

Not sure honestly I've never seen that before

[crude pulsar]

Ahhh, i mean not thr end of the world, was just curious.

[opal estuary]

How do I evolve a Pokémon that evolved through trading?]

[mental galleon]

Ask how to evolve the specific Pokemon in #ask-a-bot

[hexed saffron]

Even updating to the latest version of pif still doesnt fix the shiny entei issue, so ive resorted to starting a fresh save

And boy lemme tell ya, my starters were a doozy, fletchling, arbok or klingklang

[mental galleon]

Did you delete the save and start over?

bc I'm wondering if Cheeto or another pory might be able to look into the issue if you give them the file. They've done similar things in regards to some issues in the past

[hexed saffron]

I just made a fresh save and kept my old save in case i can fix it in someway

[dawn forum]

Hello when I was trying to download the game I got an error that said can only open with a graphic card of 2.0.0 or higher

When trying to open

[verbal timber]

1. your gpu is running outdated drivers; update them
2. your gpu in of itself is outdated and can't support OpenGL 2.0+
3. you have a CPU with an integrated graphics card, the game, for reasons unknown, is trying to use that instead of your dedicated GPU

^one of the above is true

I think someone was. I remember someone getting mad we couldn't help then saying "F ya'll I paid $5 and it worked" or something along those lines so you can try if you want

If so I'll gladly pay the 5 to just play the came in comfort

Damn that's wild man yea I just came to see if it was possibly I watch a bunch of videos on it just wanna play it comfortably lol

[crude pulsar]

The biggets issue that I see with this, is that Apple phones don't have the same flexibility in terms of internal control as an Android. You cannot manipulate your storage like an Android, it's probably technically doable, but certainly a MASSIVE pain to make it work.

[glossy steeple]

[chilly cedar]

Don't even ask you'll get shunned apparently

[verbal timber]

steamdeck has its own guide, and the rog ally is just a windows pc essentially so that guide would work

[chilly cedar]

Obviously but like I said I want somthing that's not a hassle to set up or get out to play

[little lodge]

I forgot commands in terminal could just be like "Okay next" with no indication tbh I had to see it to be like "Oh yeah"

XD

[glossy steeple]

alr i got no such file and pasted in the thing do i just move on now

[cosmic onyx]

I got shutdown immediately by a bot so ig it’s wtv just annoyed always wished I could play it

[little lodge]

iOS shunning kinda became a server meme at some point

[little lodge]

Because it's a commonly asked question.

[chilly cedar]

I mean there's nothing wrong with wanting to play on ur phone I got it running on my ipad an im getting shit on so 🤷‍♂️ idk man

[turbid terrace]

Hey @chilly cedar! 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.

[glossy steeple]

lol

[glossy steeple]

??

[chilly cedar]

Like I've got an iPad with the same processor as a MacBook so idk why it wouldn't be able to play the game it downloaded it launched fine so I don't see the issue with it but apparently it's unforgivable sin

[turbid terrace]

Hey @chilly cedar! 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.

[cosmic onyx]

Yeah I don’t got the money for any of that maybe in a year or two I can get the money to try it on something else

[chilly cedar]

U can dm me an I could help u if u want but like they said there's no further help apparently if u have issues which idc about personally i got this far alone ill figure it out

[cosmic onyx]

It’s fine have a good one Ill just stick to regular Pokémon ig

[chilly cedar]

Like I said I got it running on my iPad and am currently playing so it's deff possible but might encounter issues

[turbid terrace]

[cosmic onyx]

Nah it’s fine no worries

[glossy steeple]

yo i did all the steps got wine and homebrew downloaded and i also double clicked the download

confused on what i do now tho

[little lodge]

What's the next step in the guide

[glossy steeple]

Open the game folder in finder and Right click InfiniteFusion.exe and Open With Wine Stable

[little lodge]

Then do that

[glossy steeple]

all i see is just infinite fusion and infinite fusion.zip

[little lodge]

The .exe is a file extension

So idk how to unhide those on mac but Infinitefusion is the one you want

As long as this is the icon

[glossy steeple]

is all im seeing so far

[little lodge]

Oh maybe it doesn't have that icon on mac

But like there's InfiniteFusion.exe right there

[glossy steeple]

do i do open with wine now

[little lodge]

" Right click InfiniteFusion.exe and Open With Wine Stable"

(For context I'm simply following the guide with you, I don't have a mac)

[glossy steeple]

should i just try the other way of opening

[crude pulsar]

I mean, it works great on my Odin 2

[little lodge]

One moment lemme see if someone more knowledable with macs is available, I forwarded your error to the Porygon chat

[mystic forum]

Hello, I need help Uninstalling and Reinstalling my game for an Update. Is this the right place to be asking?

[little lodge]

Why do you need to reinstall for an update? There hasn't been an update in about a year or so

[mystic forum]

I assumed that it may have been my problem as my previous attempts have been unsuccessful to update.

but I tried on my own and that didn't work either

[little lodge]

What's your device?

[mystic forum]

Computer/Desktop. Windows 11 I think

[little lodge]

Oh then it's easier than ya think :) Just locate the Infinite Fusions folder and delete it

Then download a fresh .zip from the guide

[mystic forum]

I tried that

[little lodge]

What exactly is the issue

[mystic forum]

I am unsure where I went wrong

It just won't install the updated version. When I open the game it keeps telling me to update.

[little lodge]

Are you using the old Launcher?

The thing where it comes up with a little hub of options like save locations and such

[mystic forum]

This is the prompt I am met with

[mystic forum]

I am unsure?

[little lodge]

Make sure you completely deleted your game files (not saves, just the game). Launchers included. Then install with the preloaded

[mystic forum]

Is there a way I can check to see if I got it?

Cause I thought I did before

[little lodge]

You are deleting them from your files in the file explorer right

[mystic forum]

yep the folder and ZIP as well

[little lodge]

If you can verify they're both 100% gone, then reinstall with preloaded in #downloads

[mystic forum]

How am I able to verify?

[little lodge]

If they're not there then they're gone

Like if you deleted them they gone

empty recycle bin for good measure

[mystic forum]

okey, I shall try again then.

[mystic forum]

good call

Yayyyyy!

It worked

No more prompt

Thank you for the help

Not sure what was going wrong previously but alls good now XD

[little lodge]

[craggy tusk]

REGARDING SPRITE ISSUES:

NOTE: If you are offline and cannot play the game online, use the preloaded version in #downloads (Windows Only)!

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 using the preloaded files in #downloads .
Step 6. After reinstalling, repeat step 4.

[little lodge]

Guys I have a problem, I'm trying to play on Joiplay with an Xbox controller, there's no way I've found to map the motion controls, all the other buttons work, I don't know what to do anymore, I've been here for more than 2 hours

Someone that play in android with controller can help me?

[wicked rock]

So I’m having an issue where none of my saves are showing up

[mental galleon]

?tag moreinfo

[pearl magnet]

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.

[wicked rock]

So I tried booting up the game on version 6.7.2 and got it on the discord

I’m playing on windows as well

[little lodge]

Common security settings error. You'll need to figure out how to turn off Apple's feature of not allowing unverified publishers download or run programs

[wicked rock]

Nvm figured it out

[exotic quartz]

where can I find the sprite packs?

[mental galleon]

Did you recently download the Lightweight or Preloaded version? Like within this month?

[exotic quartz]

@mental galleon Just downloaded the lightweight now

I did have infinite fusion before but i deleted it

[mental galleon]

Alright. You do not need the spritepacks. The game will download sprites as you encounter/fuse them. At some point, you will hit a download cap where you won't be able to download more. At that point, you'll have to wait a while for it to reset

[exotic quartz]

My team was saved from my previous run, but all the sprites looked different and janky

[mental galleon]

Those may be the autogen sprites. Since you did a fresh reinstall, the game has to download the custom sprites again, which will take a bit. As long as you have seen the autogen of the fusion, the game will download the other custom sprites

it all depends on your internet

[exotic quartz]

Oh, ok. Thanks a bunch

[mental galleon]

No worries, have fun!

[humble wagon]

Can I try and download it on my iPhone

[turbid terrace]

Hey @humble wagon! 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.

[humble wagon]

Why not?

Why no iOS version?

[turbid terrace]

Hey @humble wagon! 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.

[fallow wyvern]

Cause the game is not a ROM so no emulator is available and Joi Play is not on iPhone

[night tiger]

Any tech support up

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

[earnest lantern]

mb forgor the s lol

[night tiger]

Ok let’s try this-

Or try this again

[delicate sentinel]

question is the lightweight guide from pif tech team save to download the game?

[night tiger]

Question

[earnest lantern]

yes ?

[night tiger]

On step three it says reverting what exactly am I reverting? Or what does that mean

Do I delete the previous safe file

[earnest lantern]

the file you're reverting means the one you're getting backup for

now you copy the file you just renamed and paste it into the save folder (outside of the backups one)

like the actual save folder

so it replaces the corrupted one

[earnest lantern]

every download in the #downloads channel is safe

if it comes from this server

[earnest lantern]

avoid everything website

[hardy idol]

Now delete the one that just says File A. and rename the one with numbers to just File A.rx

[bronze snow]

I need a little help, I just reinstalled the game to have the newer version but almost all the good looking sprites have vanished and I've gotten the normal ones now. How do I get new or more sprites?

[earnest lantern]

they downlaod as you play !!

[bronze snow]

Thank you

I got worried for a second

[night tiger]

Okay idk

I’ve been at this for a bit and it’s just not showing any of the files

Are they all corrupted or is there a different issue, I don’t wanna just start another save for this to happen again

Because i genuinely don’t understand what’s the issue

I open backups

[crude turtle]

Where I can install joiplay on Android?

[night tiger]

Slot im reverting

Saves or backups I guess?

[mental galleon]

The Android guide gives you the exact version of joiplay you need to play the game. It cannot run on any other version

[night tiger]

I rename and paste

But still says new game so are all the saves just not able to work?

[crude turtle]

Thanks man🙏

[night tiger]

Sorry if I sound rude/annoying

[hardy idol]

that problem is the File_A part. It has to be File A.rxdata. A space. not a underscore

[night tiger]

Just really upset

[night tiger]

Does there need to be a period after Data

[hardy idol]

no. but the space and (2) need to be removed

[night tiger]

Do you mean the space between

File and A ?

[hardy idol]

that one looks like its good to try now

[night tiger]

Still says new game 😓

Do i just give up by now

[hardy idol]

copy that file. and paste it to. this folder

[night tiger]

On it

[night tiger]

Sorry to say still nothing

[hardy idol]

hmmm

[night tiger]

Is there something I’m missing here?

Or does this game just hate me 🥲

Banging my head against a wall

any other idea or not really

Help I'm stuck with this black screen

[turbid terrace]

Hey @crude turtle! 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 after the intro animation, turn off your internet and try again. If the issue persists, turn off download data as well. (This will cause missing sprites if you used the lightweight installer!)
• If you get the message while in game, this means your computer is struggling.
• Use our performance tips to help your issues: [More Info](#tech-support message)⬅️⬅️

[crude turtle]

Why it's take so long😭😤,

[verbal timber]

that is a bot

and the answer is in that message

[sage epoch]

could someone show me a pic of their pif folder?

[crude turtle]

?

[verbal timber]

you replied to a bot message

it can't answer you back

it only triggers off of certain words or phrases

[verbal timber]

monkey paw curls
i mean ok

[crude turtle]

Yeah I know, I'm just upset 😞

[sage epoch]

no but actually i need to see how it is supposed to look

inside the folder

i put some stuff in the rcycle bin by accident

recycle*

[verbal timber]

that is why i specified the monkey paw thing since you didn't ask for the inside

[sage epoch]

thank you

[verbal timber]

turn off your wifi

[crude turtle]

Thanks it works now😊

[sage epoch]

does it have to be in that order by any chance??

[verbal timber]

if renaming the backup didn't work, you can try another backup by renaming it and putting it in the folder

[verbal timber]

no that is just how it is organized on my end

[sage epoch]

ok

[verbal timber]

as long as the files/folders/etc are all the same, it doesn't matter

[night tiger]

I did this with a second one and the problem persists sadly

I’m sorry for my message/photo spam

[verbal timber]

then likely all your backups are corrupt

nothing we can do to change that

at best we can ensure it "hopefully" doesn't happen again

[night tiger]

I’m just really bummed out because this was my first run and I really don’t wanna go back through everything repeating it

[night tiger]

I don’t even know why it would have happened tho-

I just saved the game and got off and when I went to get back on, the save was gone

[verbal timber]

number 1 reason, at least on windows

onedrive

[night tiger]

The only thing I have left to ask is, is the enternet ball thing maybe the issue?

[verbal timber]

if the game folder is touched by that either indirectly [via just normal cloudsync] or directly [the file path for the game folder is in onedrive] that'd do it

[night tiger]

Is that common?

[verbal timber]

reasonably, since we have a tag for it

[night tiger]

I see

[verbal timber]

i wonder if the bot is still dead

?tag onedrive

[pearl magnet]

This game does not work while inside a OneDrive folder. If you see a status column in your game folder or your filepath has onedrive, that means your game folder is synching to OneDrive and will cause you several issues.

To Fix:

1. Move your InfiniteFusion folder to your C:\Users\Your Name\Downloads folder
2. Attempt to run the game. If your problem is fixed, you do not need to do anything else. If your problem is not fixed or new problems arise, continue to step 3.
3. Open the .git folder (use screenshot below tp show hidden folders if you don't see it) and delete the file named shallow.lock and index.lock
   4.. Rerun INSTALL_OR_UPDATE.bat afterwards to redownload any files OneDrive deleted.
   https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/308392115338084360/1335320045987041400/image.png?ex=679fbd34&is=679e6bb4&hm=88e8e747e55fe804d411ec1ca465fd4086297731bad9275b681ce2fa8ce168d8&

If you do not want to move your installation location, you can either:

1. Uninstall OneDrive (Recommended if you don't need OD for school/work)
2. Edit your OneDrive to not manage your PIF folder (Only if you need it for school/work)
   How to do either of these options is outside the scope of our tech support team. You will need to research on your own how to do that on your device.

[verbal timber]

ah no, it lives

check against that info

[night tiger]

How do I know if it’s a one drive?

[verbal timber]

as the bot message says

either you will have a status column in the folder, or the file path will include OneDrive

what i mean by a status column is that you'll see some icons in the folder that are:

blue or green checkmarks
blue or gray clouds

if that is false, then when you open the game folder, at the top of the file explorer, look at the path it has

if you see it has OneDrive in it, then that is bad

if both are false, then its hard to say the exact cause of the save going corrupt

[night tiger]

Lets see

[night tiger]

I’m gonna be honest, I’m already lost im new to the computer world

[verbal timber]

ok, neither are true

there's a handful of reasons why the save could have corrupted then, and unfortunately no one easy fix all that will stop it [and well outside the means of this channel since pretty much none of them are to do with the game]

you'll just need to start over

[night tiger]

I see

[night tiger]

I appreciate your help either way

[night tiger]

I must ask is there a difference with savefile an savefiles

[verbal timber]

the top one is the shortcut folder

to where saves are stored

no idea what the bottom one is for, but best not to fiddle with it

[night tiger]

Gotcha

[night tiger]

For future reference what’s the best way to like double save so if this happens again I don’t need to restart

[frozen garden]

where can i find a guide to tell me how to install more sprites
