this is weird, everytime i change groups or enter h scene the cards that were used are constantly appearing in recycle bin? why, how does this work, it's taking up storage
Never noticed this so far, my Recycle Bin doesn´t show any HS2 character card.
I wonder how your installation path looks like cuz you always come with such curious questions o_O

why does my Honey Select 2 DX R13 look better and higher quality (first image), then my Honey Select 2 DX R15 (second image)? It's driving me nuts. Graphicmod is enabled for both. My character on the left look higher quality despite both softwares running at the same quality? It also doesn't match skin tone.

it also does this weird thing when you boot up the character creation for r15, it has like a rose tint filter for a sec and it looks amazing/highquality, then immediately changes to a glaring dead white filter like the second image. View attachment 3521304 View attachment 3521305
Never noticed this - my only presumption may be different shader versions in your both games.

uh, is there any way to optimize hi poly futa body? It's making my game lag so bad also it clips trough a lot of stuff unless i equip a "Meaty" series pair of socks and make them transparent to hide to fix the clipping but it disables jigglebones until you remove socks. This is so noticable especially when i turn off the socks the hi poly futa mesh drops my fps by 40 fps and it becomes extremely laggy when there are multiple high poly futas. It's a lot laggier with some HDR presets in DHH. Also it makes the nails glitch on certain occasions.

(that stuff is coming from the nails, it extends infinitely accross the room)
i turn of long nails if the character has them but it doesnt fix the glitch
its the best futa model so far and my fav but too bad it so poorly optimized.
It is what it is, live with it.
Unless you may contact the modder and be able to persuade him to rework his mod ;)

And a heavier hardware load of a high poly model is a logical effect - isn´t it?

Are you running it from Linux using WINE? I had the same problem there, which I resolved by setting the WINEHOME and XDG_DATA_HOME environment variables to a directory that does not exist in order to disable the Windows Recycle Bin integration for HoneySelect2.exe.

What you want is a BepInEx Plugin called "Position Selector", file is called "HS2_PositionSelector.dll" and it goes in your "...HoneySelect2\BepInEx\Plugins" folder. The link to download it is dead now so I'll attach mine.

Edit: You can edit how this plugin works in the master plugin settings.
Hi, I've just installed this, and I cannot change positions at all when it is active. That is, I've enabled the boxes in the plugin settings.
Whenever I enter a scene, though, every position I click has its box turned red, and positions do not switch, not even to positions that would be available without this.

If I deactivate it with the shortcut key, though, I can switch as normal.
Any idea what's going on?

Thanks.

This plugin defaults to the "R" key which I believe is also used to reset the camera. Press "R" and click on each position to reset it back to blue which is the default. Make sure none are red. When they are all blue again go into the plugin settings (press F1, then plugin settings) and either reassign the edit key to something that doesn't conflict with these keys:

...or just disable edit mode entirely (I do).

the high poly futa model has the best jigglebones,other are kinda crappy. 2nd best would be sos or bp5. the cur series are shittiest
So we have a dilemma here, have we? High poly is heavy on hardware - you don´t want, but you want it for best jiggle???
Btw I´ve noticed that the high poly bodies are clipping with most of clothing. I don´t use them.

I guess the breast jiggling you can also optimize with the existing slider settings without using BoobSettings and Jiggle plugin from [OPTIONAL] Mods.
Here are some useful postings for this matter https://f95zone.to/threads/honey-select-2-dx-r15-illusion.53457/post-12839526

And again mind this https://f95zone.to/threads/honey-select-2-dx-r15-illusion.53457/post-12839526

like i said, that was fixed be putting on "meaty" socks series, it removes lag and clipping until socks are turned off.
but sure, it was made for naked only mode.

i want that exact model because it looks best but without the extra polygons, the polygons are redundant part of it because its not something that you'd pay attention and due to that it costs framerates

A little late, don´t know if you found a solution for your request yet.

But when I was searching for a list of bone names in Advanced BoneMod I found this: "You gotta go to advanced bone mod settings in the char maker (right side, one of the four options). There you look for the "dan_s" bone. There you can adjust the x,y,z scale. Works with futa characters as well."

This bone affects dong and balls simultaneously, it works as you can see here
View attachment 1651736

The bone cm_J_dan_f_top do the same, cm_J_dan100_00 affects only dong.
Hi, does this also work in the H scenes, because in my futa character, my partner's hand merges with my breast, because the game assumes that I am a male character, exactly the same as in pregnancy, my partner's hand merges with it the stomach

I guess the penis settings in ABMX are permanent on this character.

If you have clipping issues in H-Scenes (this also happens with exaggerated body dimensions like big ass) you can adjust the bodies https://f95zone.to/threads/honey-select-2-dx-r15-illusion.53457/post-12772718

as of right now, is R15 stable and secure enough to use? or should i stick with R14?
Personally, I like R15. Although I've encountered some issues before due to some missteps.

If you want R15, then you should back up your data on R14. Completely install a new game on R15 and not update it from KKManager. Then you can import your data back. Also extract with 7zip so you won't mess your game up.

Then I think you're pretty much good to go from then on.

Edit:
Some things may change that you might not like though. There's a subtle difference when you look at it closely.

This is my R14 renders vs my R15 (both using graphicsmod)

Yazen already gave you a good advise.

Here you can read the changlog from R14 to R15.
As you see some main mods or parts from them got updated, I don´t assume R14 is completely outdated now.
So far BepInEx itself isn´t updated there I see no danger that newer mods or mod versions shouldn´t work.
The Sideloader mods you still may update via InitSetting or KK-Manager.

So if you´re happy with your R14 I guess you can stay with it.
