New page

{{Koikatsu_Sunshine}}=Installing the game=
In the installation file, will be some japanese folders and inside one of them is the '''setup''' folder. Extract only the '''setup''' folder to other place without Japanese characters, something like "C:\KoikatsuSunshine_Install". Don't extract the Japanese folders itself! The file <code>ILLUSION コイカツ！サンシャイン.msi</code> and its companions must be inside a path without Japanese characters.

Install the game using <code>ILLUSION コイカツ！サンシャイン.msi</code> inside the new "C:\KoikatsuSunshine_Install\'''setup'''" folder.

It will ask the folder to install the game. It's recommended to install in a short path, otherwise the game can have issues. Avoid installing in the "Desktop" or in "Program Files" since they can have special access permissions.

A good folder to install the game is '''C:\illusion\KoikatsuSunshine''' since it’s the default path of the setup. You can install in other drive if you wish, such as "D:\illusion\KoikatsuSunshine".

After installing it is time to update your game.

=Installing updates=
Illusion update files comes in the form of an .exe file that not always works on pcs with languages other than Japanese. A workaround is to use the [https://www.7-zip.org/ program 7-zip] to open the file as if it were a compressed file (right click -> 7-zip -> Open archive).

Inside the file may have several Japanese folders. For each one of them you need to seek the "setup" folder and extract the files inside to your game folder (remember, its recommended to install the game in C:\illusion\KoikatsuSunshine), the folder "abdata" and his companions must be extracted to the game folder (where "KoikatsuSunshine.exe" is). When extracting, overwrite the files if asked.
