Text guide

• Download all parts to the same directory. You can mix parts from different sources, but the file names need to stay the same. You can use any directory other than the game directory.

• Start the included .exe file. A UAC prompt should appear. When you click Yes the patch installer will start.

• Follow instructions in the installation wizard (for most users all you need to do is keep pressing Next).

• If the installation location was not automatically detected or is wrong, you will have to show the patch where your game is installed. If you bought the game on Steam, go to your steam library > properties of the game > view local files to find where the game is installed.

• At the start of installation the patch will verify if all of the downloaded parts are in order. This can take a couple of minutes to complete. If any parts are missing or corrupted, the patch will show an error message detailing which part you should redownload. If that happens: close the patch, download the bad file again (try using a different download link and/or web browser) and retry installing the patch.

• After the patch installation finishes you can remove the downloaded patch files. That being said, I suggest keeping them in case your game breaks for any reason and you need to install the patch again to fix it.

What to do in case of download issues

• If the download is very slow or fails to start, try a different download link and/or a different web browser. If all links are slow test your connection speed. If you have a VPN try changing the server or turning it off. If all fails you might have better luck with the torrent download.

• Make sure you download ALL parts to the same folder and that the parts all have their original names. You need ALL parts for the patch to install properly.

• If you see any messages about corrupted files you'll have to re-download the offending part (or all of the parts). Try using a different download source and/or a different web browser.

• If the installer asks you for another disc, it means that your download was not extracted correctly and is missing files, or you renamed or removed some of the extracted files.

• Make sure that your antivirus is not flagging and removing the .exe file.

What to do in case of installation issues

• If you get a "This patch is inside of the game directory" or "Path too long" error, move the patch files to a folder like "D:\HFP\" and try again.

• If you get a "Different game is detected" error, make sure this is the correct patch for your game. HC in the title means that this patch is for HoneyCome (doesn't work on previous games like HoneySelect2).

• If after installing the patch you have issues running the game, restart your PC and try to install the patch again with default settings. Try moving the game to a simple folder like "D:\Games\HC".

• Make sure you downloaded ALL parts to the same folder and that the parts all have the same name. You need ALL parts for the patch to work. If the installer asks you for another disc it means that your download was not extracted correctly and is missing files, or you renamed or removed some of the extracted files.

• If your antivirus is flagging the .exe file make sure that you've downloaded the patch by following links in this post. If you are sure the download came from the right place, it's most likely a false positive (it's a common issue with non-signed application installers).

• If Steam updates the game you will have to install the patch again or mods will not work (the game itself might also not work).
