For people using yuki portal I saw this tip get posted to filter out the majority of the ongoing AI spam. However, I also just noticed the AI spammer account appears to be doing some sort of testing and may change its approach. It still strikes me as odd that the spam account hasn't been banned yet. I don't read moonrunes so I can't even tell if there's a mod report function or anyone to contact.

Any studio neo tutorial beside the one in f95?
I have zero knowledge of 3d modeling so the tutorial in there feels like it doesn't help a newbie in learning how to use the program.
Right now I only mess around in the character creation instead, rate my effort.

>>8881945
That's quite the dedication to do all that in the character maker alone. I saw this wiki has a youtube tutorial linked in addition to that f95 tutorial thread. It may be outdated in some aspects but from what I can tell it covers enough basics to start you off.
>https://wiki.anime-sharing.com/hgames/index.php?title=Honey_Select_2/ Technical_Help#Studio_Tutorials
It might be a lot to take in so don't feel afraid to start up and mess around.

The default sliders should already be uncapped beyond 100 up to 200 in the repack from what I recall. You can also toggle these options (split xyz and advanced bonemod) for more adjustments. A lot of links to mods get posted in that discord server in OP which is convenient. I don't know if other sites have that much info complied (maybe f95zone?).
>>8882782
What a shame. At least it looks like the scenes still go back to 2020. This update feels kind of janky. What the hell are the numbers next to the tags now? I assume it's some sort of ranking/voting thing.

For the record I meant things like spine offsets. Maybe that's in the bonemod, I haven't used it at all so far.
>>8883261
Try adjusting mouth cavity to get the top teeth over the bottom lip, rotation and position mostly but also scale if needed, and then mouthlow to make the lower lip rotation and position to look like it's being bitten. With more time than I spent you can probably make it look less horrifying than picrel

>>8883336
Don't know if you can save, but in my pic you can see under the list of bones that there is an alias and save button, so maybe that saves presets.
For the side bite, you can play around with Mouth_L or _R to make it work.

Best to run these things offline anyways. Microsoft hates that.
Speaking of malware acting as operating systems, has anyone got a decent suggestion for recording videos/gifs/images? The 'prt sc' button does nothing anymore and the 'Windows Snipping Tool' is ASS. Its like they don't want Anon making anything fun and sharing it.

>>8885023
I'm pretty sure that studio is the same for both HS2 and AIS, it's just the gameplay that differs. No clue if the character creator differs, that could actually be meaningful.
I recommend downloading either, you'll probably want the sideloader modpack for studio at some point but you can get used to studio without it at first. Also FYI but the sideloader pack has some giant maps that take up like 150 gigs which you can prune out, stuff like entire cities that you may need. Starting by recreating something like the OP pic would actually be relatively easy to get used to placing and posing. The basic method I use is:
1. Start with idea in my head for a scene
2. Find animation closest to my desired end result
3. Enable FKIK and fine tune the pose
4. Place and position any objects
5. Adjust visuals (in game menu under scene effects or by pressing F5 post processing if using the graphics mod)
6. Take renders from a bunch of different angles

File: video exporter.mp4 (1.6 MB)
>>8884947
The repack should have a plugin included named video exporter which might be what you're looking for. The default command to start/stop recording in studio is rightshift+ctrl+e and the output goes into the videoexport folder in userdata. Here's an example I took with it. I'm open to other suggestions though since it seems kind of janky.
>>
>>
>>8884947
>The 'prt sc' button
Shortcut is Win+Print Screen now, or Print screen for snipping tool pop up.
For a third party solution, I used to use PicPick for customiseable shortcuts of your liking, but I am sure there are better nowadays.
For HS2 capture, use F11, configure res/render/export likings inside F1 plugin settings.

Guys, what am I actually missing out on?
For example, there’s this guy who creates premium-quality models, but his cards are behind a paywall: https://www.pixiv.net/en/users/38413212
I’m sure someone richer than me has bought them. Where can I find them?
Kemono - is down, had 1 pack of this guy from 2021
F95zone - has a few larger packs from other creators, some themed packs featuring well-known waifus, and a few threads where 90% of the posts are requests for a specific card, and sometimes someone drops a single card. Nothing from the guy above, but a few people were asking for him
db.bepis.io - 80% are, let’s not kid ourselves, average cards, 15% are waifu recreations, 4% are really good cards, and 1% are some cards from a paywall posted anonymously
boorus - a bit similar to the one above, except there are more cards
Where do I go to find pirated cards or clothes?

Looks like their domain was updated this month. I wonder if if their domain expired and someone stole the site and vibe coded a clone.
This change seems too bad to be intentional. Even their catalog was nuked apparently.
Anyway, I stopped going to the booru years ago, it was filled with low quality spam, and was already dying.
I was getting on the fence on bepis too, the spam problem was getting worse and worse there too, there were barely any cards worth saving. The only saving grace was that it was quick and effective to browse through.
Maybe we just have to accept dead game, no cards never.
The other sites have slowed down a lot this year too. And even if there is a nice new card, most are so heavily paymodded, most of the clothes and hair might not even show up.
>>
>>8882782
Looks like older cards are still on the site but the number of pages caps out at 416 so they get cut off. If you select the sort by "least recent" option in the search then you can see cards all the way back to 2019 will show up. The search function will also pull up older cards using other parameters like name and tags. Not a great solution but at least the cards are still there. It would be nice if there wasn't a cap at 416 pages or if you had the option to search by a time range.

>why is /kkg/ fucking dead?
/kkg/ moved to another chan while 4chan was hacked in april of last year, and they stayed over there rather than coming back to 4chan, alongside some other generals, it's way less populated, but they seem to be happy there.

Go through each folder within the map pack, order by file size, then delete the ones with names that you feel you're unlikely to want. Many maps are fantasy or scifi themed, or entire city blocks, which I delete. I get pretty liberal with deletion because even among those which I might want to use, I probably won't miss. Doing this can save you like 100gb

I don't understand VNGE scene downloads. I assume I am to download VNGE, which appears to be behind a patreon wall. I can probably find a download on my own, but how exaclty does one use VNGE within a scene and is there a recommended download for it?
>>
>>8893257
If you downloaded the repack version then it should be included in the [OPTIONAL] Mods folder in the main folder with instructions on how to install (basically just copy paste into the main directory). After installing, the buttons to use it will appear in studio. I'm not too familiar with making vnge scenes myself but there are probably plenty of tutorials out there on how to use it properly at this point.

God bless you for spoon feeding us thread newfags anons, have a piece of my amateurish efforts for your trouble. Frankly learning studio and messing with animations seems like a herculean task for a quick fap but it's coming along, I wish I had more control over animations in the base game because I really can't be fucked to do it all in studio. Does AIS have a better system or at least more animations? From what I understand it's basically HS2 so I'm hoping I can simply rip my cards from one and apply it to the other without having to commit hours to nitpicking with advanced body slide settings again.

>tfw you must choose between painstakingly crafting your dream scenarios down to every last detail or a quick fap
Stick with HS2 for studio and the animations. While they have a lot of overlap most mods are made with HS2 in mind so you may run into compatibility problems with some mods. If you want to enjoy AIS for the gameplay then yes you can port your cards over since they use the same character maker and should have the same mods for that. The only concern is that the personalities differ between the games so you'd have to change that at least. AIS gameplay kind of sucks though so be aware. The relationship and stat building and character interactivity can be fun but the survival crafting parts can be grindy if you don't use the cheat tools and the game is poorly optimized.
