	=FAQ=		=FAQ=
−	*'''Q: I keep getting 0% on all interactions. Please help!?'''<br />A: You must run the game (<tt>AA2Play.exe</tt>/<tt>AA2Play English.exe</tt>) with Japanese locale (use AppLocale (or [http://www.hongfire.com/forum/showthread.php/328830 HF pApploc])). It will also work if you run the game via the desktop shortcut installed by the HF Patch (because it's an AppLocale shortcut).	+	*'''Q: This person comes up to me and asks me to keep their secret, but I've never spoken to them before! Is this a bug?'''<br />A: That character has the ''Exploitable'' [[Artificial Academy 2/Character Creation/Traits|trait]]. Its only purpose it serves is to remind you that the character is ''Exploitable''.
−	[[File:AA2 statue.jpg|thumb|Statue location]]	+	*'''Q: What does the changing cursor color refer to?'''<br />A: The color of the cursor reflect how much time left in that period. Blue mean you got a lot and red mean the period is almost over.
−	*'''Q: My game freezes on all/some conversations. Help!?'''<br />A: You must run the game (<tt>AA2Play.exe</tt>/<tt>AA2Play English.exe</tt>) with Japanese locale (use AppLocale (or [http://www.hongfire.com/forum/showthread.php/328830 HF pApploc])). It will also work if you run the game via the desktop shortcut installed by the HF Patch (because it's an AppLocale shortcut).
−	*'''Q: What does the changing cursor color refer to?'''<br />A: The color indicates the time of the day/period. If it's red/nearing red it means it's almost time for the bell to chime (at least if I didn't overlook other stuff it might do).	+	*'''Q: How can I change my player character?'''<br />A: After sleeping click the class button on the top right and then select the character (marked by <span style="color:green">'''PC'''</span>).
−	*'''Q: Is there any other way to change character (i.e. the Main Character, MC)?'''<br />A: Yes, after sleeping click the class button on the top right and then select the character (marked by "PC").	+	[[File:AA2_statue.jpg|thumb|Statue location]]
		+	*'''Q: Where can I find the statue to view that stats?'''<br />A: Behind the martial arts room. Refer to the Statue location picture on the right.
−	[[File:AA2 H locations.jpg|thumb|H locations]]	+	*'''Q: Can I get a gameover?'''<br />A: Yes, see [[Artificial_Academy_2/Gameplay#Events|Events Section]]. If the PC is forced to transfer from any of those events, the game will fade to black and quit to title.
−	*'''Q: Where can I find the statue to view that stats?'''<br />A: Refer to the Statue location picture on the right.
−	*'''Q: Where can I find locations safe to H (in other words: Where can I take the girl to have H)?'''<br />A: Refer to the H locations picture on the right. Bear in mind that you need sufficient high status with the girl or she won't follow you to the location. H will initiate as soon as you enter the room.	+	*'''Q: How do I get a girl pregnant?'''<br />A: Cum inside her on a dangerous (risky) day more than once. It takes about 10 ejaculations in normal H and 5 in forced H. See the [[Artificial_Academy_2/H Guide/Pregnancy|Pregnancy Page]] for more information.
−	*'''Q: Why does the cursor change color?'''<br />A: The color of the cursor reflect how much time left in that period. Blue mean you got a lot and red mean the period is almost over.	+	*'''Q: How do I change the club that I'm in?'''<br />A: You can change your club in the Staff Room by clicking on the black ledger book on the right. See [[Artificial_Academy_2/Gameplay/Map|the map page]] for directions and an illustration.
−	[[File:AA2 Love hotel outside train station.jpg|thumb|Love hotel - Outside Train Station]]	+	*'''Q: When I go to karaoke, music is not playing and all I got is just a image with characters sitting there for a few seconds. Can anyone help?'''<br />A: The game didn't come up with karaoke music. You need to download and put .wav or .ogg music files in the data/sound/"subfolder". Put the file(s) in a subfolder that matches the personality you want the file to play for. A karaoke soundtrack set is also included in the [http://www.anime-sharing.com/forum/requests-releases-123/release-%5Bmod-release-thread%5D-illusion-artificial-academy-2-a-223235/#post1532691 HF Patch].
−	*'''Q: How do I tell what day it is?'''<br />A: The sport lesson for that day are the only real indicator of what day of the week it could be: Monday-> Sport ground, Tuesday-> Pool, Wednesday-> Sport center, Thursday-> Pool, Friday-> Sport ground, Saturday-> Half day only so no sport lesson
−	*'''Q: The statue keep changing the relations every time I click on it? Is this a bug?'''<br />A: No it's not a bug. In AA2 characters can have multiple(up to 4) opinions/thoughs about their classmates. Therefore, checking the statue muliple times in succesion gives a better impression of the actual relationship.	+	=Configuration Options=
		+	[[File:AA_Configuration.jpg|thumb]]
		+	All of the options on the System tab have hotkeys to toggle them, shown here and on the Shortcuts tab along with other controls. Many of these are self-explanatory.
−	*'''Q: Where can I find the love hotel?'''<br />A: Refer to the Love hotel picture on the right. The love hotel is located between the game center and karaoke bar on the ''Outside Train Station'' map (bottom right corner of the location screen). You need to click a small neon sign between the buildings while a character you wish to initiate sex with is following you. The Love hotel picture shows where you need to hold the mouse.	+	* Show Shadow - This will only toggle shadow on and off if Shadows were selected in the graphics option from the launcher. This can be used to switch between finer rendering and better system performance at need.
		+	* Show Focus - Display or hide the point the camera will rotate around. By default, it appears whenever the mouse is used to control the camera.
		+	* Automatically Change Camera - If turned off, the camera won't update position when H position changes. The {{key|R}}eset key may function differently depending on where the camera was placed when this option is toggled off.
−	[[File:Map locations.jpg|thumb|Locations with Japanese labels]]	+	Starting with update v6, every game patch added new options to the "additional" page which can change the game behavior. For more details see the [[Artificial_Academy_2/Cheats|Cheats page]]
−	*'''Q: Can I get a gameover?'''<br />A: Yes, if you get a girl pregnant then the girl will appear before you and tell you she is pregnant and you must drop out of school with her to raise the child. This will take you back to the main title screen.
−	*'''Q: How do I get the girl pregant?'''<br />A: Cum inside of her on a dangerous day. The girls have safe days and dangerous days. You can tell which day it is according to their dialog before an H-scene. The dialog after the H-scene is a good indicator of whether you succeeded or not. Then simply wait 3-4 in game weeks and the girl may come before you and tell you the good news.	+	=Your Bedroom=
		+	[[File:AA2_male_bedroom_night.jpg|thumb|right|Nighttime Bedroom (male)]][[File:AA2_go_sleep.jpg|56px|right|bottom]]
		+	Here is where you begin and end every school day. You have the following options:
		+	* Quit - exits the game, with confirmation dialog
		+	* Title - quit to main menu, with confirmation dialog
−	*'''Q: How can I get a H-scene in a characters home?'''<br />A: You have to ask your target to study together(this button is only available on the last section of the day). Be aware than your target must be their normal uniform and carry their bag(otherwise you will get a 0% refuse). To get the H-scene instead of the black-screen your target should be in an arroused state when you ask(the music can be a good indicator for that).	+	These buttons are present in every phase of the day:
		+	* Upper right class book - display classroom, with varying configuration options depending on the time of day
		+	* Lower right tile - Advances time to next phase of the day
−	*'''Q: How do I change the club that I'm in?'''<br />A: Go to the teacher office and on the desk is a black ledger. Hover you cursor over it and you should see a button. Click on it and it will pull up the club menu so you can select a new club.	+	===Saving===
		+	The game doesn't automatically save. The only known way to save, is to wait for the school day to finish.
		+	At bedtime, the Save and Load buttons appear beside the exit buttons, and this is the only time a class state can be saved. Any unsaved progress will be lost on quitting the game. Loading a class will return to your bedroom at night, the same time and day that was last saved.
−	*'''Q: When I go to karaoke, music do not playing and all I got is just a image with characters sitting there for a few seconds. Can anyone help?'''<br />A: You need to put *.wav files in the data/sound/"subfolder". Put the file(s) in a subfolder that match the [[Artificial_Academy_2/Character_Creation|personality]] you want the file to play for.	+	==Your Classroom==
		+	[[File:AA2_class_roster.jpg|thumb|An example of a completely filled classroom.]][[File:AA2_female_bedroom_morning.jpg|right|thumb|Morning Bedroom (female)]][[File:AA2_go_school.jpg|56px|right|bottom]]This displays a top-down diagram of the class seating arrangement; each box represents an empty desk, or the student who is seated there.
		+	The player character is marked with the [[File:AA2_PC.jpg]] icon, and can be changed only in the morning by selecting another student.
−	=Basics=	+	Buttons that appear beneath the desk arrangement (available only at bedtime):
−	For those who are having trouble with character interactions (racking up a lot of 0% and making classmates angry):
−	Initiate conversations using friendly conversation (the word bubble icon and it's sub options). If one doesn't work, try a different one and there's a good chance that one will succeed where the other failed.	+	[[File:AA2_Uniform_Button.jpg]] - Customize the uniform, P.E. outfit, swimming clothes and club outfit for the selected student. You can also set a standard uniform for all students.
−	If you initiate conversation and the person looks troubled, sad, etc. use the top dialogue icon (portrait of a boy with a speech bubble at his mouth) and it's sub options to resolve the problem. Cheer them up, calm them down, praise them, etc. until you succeed by choosing the correct one. Once you get the correct one and you improve their mood or remove negative effects, talk to them again and use the friendly conversation options (word bubble icon). Having a successful conversation segment after helping a classmate feel better will grant a substantial % boost.	+	[[File:AA2_Transfer_Out.jpg]] - Removes the student from the selected desk. The student will be removed from the class save file and all stats will then be lost. If the transferred character had a good favorability rating towards the PC then it will leave a farewell message
−	==About %==
−	The % value shown when interacting with somebody represents the chance of the character to accept the action. As long as that value is higher than 0% there is a chance for success. As long as the value is below 100% there is a chance to fail. It is possible to succed with as low as 1% but the odds are low.
−	The % value also gives an idea about your relationship with the character since the success rate increases as your relationship improves. The success rate can also be influenced by a lot of other things such as the timing, the other characters sexual orientation, their mood and more.	+	[[File:AA2_Transfer_In.jpg]] - Adds a student to the selected desk from a menu of students in Character Maker data. Transferring in a new character after the first day will have him introduce himself to the class.
−	Even if an action is initiated successfully the result of the interaction can vary. This is indicated by the message following the interaction as well as a sound-effect. Talk interactions for example, can have 4 different outcomes(bad,normal,good and great) that are influnced by the mood of the character(better mood gives better results) and have different effects on your relationship.	+	[[File:AA2_Fill_Class.jpg]] - Fills all empty desks semi-randomly with students in Character Maker data. Note that it will never add the same student twice, even if there are not enough students in Character Maker data.
−	The "Confess"-interaction can also have different results, even if it is performend successfully. Depending your relationship to the character, they might state that they "only" like you or that they love you.
−	===Traits and Relationship===	+	''It is important to understand that characters created with the Editor only funtion as a template in class creation: any changes made afterwards, both inside the Editor or to class members, has no effect on the other. Completely invisible to the player, the game also assigns a set of AI-behavior to the added classmates in order to prevent two or more characters of the same type acting the same, which would most likely happen when choosing several males, since there are only five types to select from.''
−	The interacting characters traits and relationship might affect the success rate of an action, some examples:
−	*A character with easygoing will have the success rate multiplied by 1.5 for cheering, calming them.
−	*Always hungry will double the success rate of the food talk.
−	*Passionate trait will double the success rate of the love related action.
−	Having the right trait might give an increased initial success rate, which will make you able to discuss the subject.
−	=Controls=	+	===Teacher===
−	*{{key|F1}} Opens settings menu	+	[[File:Teacher.jpg|thumb|Teacher position]]Artificial Academy 2 has introduced the ability to play as or have an NPC act as a teacher. The teacher is whoever is chosen in the top middle spot of the class. Teachers are never tested on academic or athletic exams, though they may enter the club tournament. Teachers can gain stats in the same way as students by conducting the classes, lessons and club meetings. PC teachers lack the ability to study or exercise independently, but may do so with students one-on-one or in groups. A PC teacher's performance effects the student's development rates. Teachers will never fight.
−	*{{key|F2}} Opens shortcuts menu
−	*{{key|F11}} Saves screenshot to the data/cap folder
−	While interacting with character:	+	Teachers have a general patrol of the school, from the staff room, up to the class room, then up to the roof and back down. They can easily be found in any of these areas. Teachers will never leave the school before every student leaves, including the PC.
−	*{{key|space}} Opens camera control
−	*{{key|R}} Reset camera position
−	*{{key|home}} / {{key|end}} Zoom in or out
−	*{{key|pageup}} / {{key|pagedown}} Moves camera up or down
−	*{{key|up}} / {{key|down}} / {{key|left}} / {{key|right}}  Move character
−	*{{key|4}} / {{key|6}} / {{key|8}} / {{key|2}} Rotate character
−	*{{key|5}} Reset rotation
		+	Note that Normal and High virtue teachers form romantic and sexual relationships even harder.
−	*Clicking the right mouse button will stop your character from moving. It helps to position your character on the screen and can help you to avoid interrupting conversations.	+	Teachers can be fired from their job if they skip three classes or are caught engaging in sexual activity with a student.
−	*Scrolling the mouse wheel will let you cycle between targeted classmates that are on screen (like in AA1).
−	*Clicking the middle mouse wheel button will allow your character to auto move to the classmate you currently have targeted.
−	*Like in AA1, pressing the spacebar will pause conversations so you can have a few extra seconds to think about what to do or what to say. It also lets you look at the person you're talking to similar to looking at characters in the character maker.
−	=Teacher=	+	=General Controls=
−	[[File:Teacher.jpg|thumb|Teacher position]]	+	* {{key|Left-Click}} - Activates buttons, moves the PC to [[Artificial Academy 2/Gameplay/Interactions|interact]] with the clicked character or go to another room. A blue box with the name of the next room will appear when an exit zone is selected.
−	Artificial Academy 2 has introduced the ability to play as or have an NPC act as a teacher. The teacher is whoever is chosen in the top middle spot of the class. The role of teachers is not much different than a student. Teachers seem to linger around the classroom and staff room areas more.	+	* {{key|Right-Click}} - Stop in place.
		+	* {{key|Middle-Click}} - Moves the PC to interact with target named in the top left corner.
		+	* {{key|Mousewheel}} - Selects between characters in the same map area as the player. The selected character will be named in the top left box, and a circle will appear around their feet. A yellow circle means they're already interacting with another character and interacting with them will interrupt whatever they're doing.
		+	The color of the mouse cursor indicates time remaining in the current period, changing from dark blue at the start of the period, through light blue, green, yellow, and orange to dark red at end of the period.
−	Teachers can be fired from their job if certain circumstances are met such as skipping classes(after three times) or being caught by an NPC with the class prez trait engaging in sexual activity with a student.	+	The lower right tile advances time to the next period of the day.
−	=Items=	+	If two characters target each other for interaction then the first one will initiate its interaction when they meet.
−	Using the maker, each created character gets assigned 3 trading-items(one for lovers, one for friends and one for sexual relationships).These items can not be traded directly. However, at some point, any NPC may ask you to trade. Depending on your relationship, they may trade their friend item or their lover's item with you. All item have no use besides trading(as confirmed ingame).	+	[[File:Map_select.jpg|56px]] '''Map Select''' - Opens the map to select a room to move to. The PC will automatically pass through any intervening room, (usually) selecting the shortest route.
−	=Events that will force a student or teacher transfer=	+	[[File:Little_black_book.jpg|56px]] '''Character Select''' - Opens the class roster to select a character to move to and interact with. Note that the selected character can be in a gender-restricted room. This is also where the "Load" button can always be found.
−	*'''Injury incident:	+	==Hotkeys==
−	This can only be triggerd by characters with the "evil" trait(there have been reports to the contrary however)<br />	+	[[File:hotkeys.jpg]]
−	There are two specific types of injury acts known:<br />
−	1) A character with the "evil" trait gained knowledge of their lovers unfaithfulness(through withnessing or by rumor). This will result in a change of said characters disposition towards their lover to "TOGETHER FOREVER". The "evil" character will then injure their lover.<br />
−	2) A character with the "evil" trait gained knowledge of an other characters advances towards their lover(specifically forced intercourse). The "evil" character will then injure the offender.<br />
−	If the attacked character has the "Lucky" trait the injury might be avoided.<br />	+	Following game update v4 screenshots with the hud display included can be made by pressing {{key|F9}}
−	After the injury the attacked will no longer be available. The attacker might also be unavailable(due to getting caught and arrested) though there are some cases where the attacker will remain unpunished(exact circumstances are currently not known).
−	*'''Getting fired(as a teacher)	+	==PC Auto Mode==
−	-Skip 3 classes <br />	+	Game update v7 added the ability to set your PC to automatic play mode with the {{key|Z}} key. While in auto mode, your PC will act the same way NPCs act, with the frequency of the interaction determined by the PC's sociability. However, there will be no H in auto mode and you can't see the actions your PC takes part in.
−	-H-action with student was witnessed by student who has "Class Prez" trait<br />	+	[[File:PC_Auto_Mode.jpg|right]]
−	-Class Prez: will report the teacher (and get him fired) when witnessing him having sex with student<br />	+	The auto mode can only be turned on/off in your bedroom and during school you can't click any button except the chime one.
−	==Pregnancy==	+	Since update v8 you can also determine whether the auto PC will interrupt the NPCs' interactions.
−	Each female character has a hidden cycle of risky(impregnation possible) and safe days(no risk of pregnancy). This cycle is 14 days long and looks like this: 4 safe days -> 4 days with high risk -> 2 safe days -> 4 days with low risk (repeat). The starting day of the cycle is randomly generated on character creation.
−	*'''High risk days pregnancy
−	When trying to initatiate intercourse outside of a safe zone, girls will make remarks about it being a risky day:<br />
−	- normal/high/highest virtue girls with low intimacy(towards player) will refuse sex; "no way! it's dangerous day!"<br />
−	- normal/high/highest virtue girls with high intimacy will ask/force you to wear a condom when initiating sex.<br />
−	- low/lowest virtue girls will accept raw sex but will warn you to cum outside(no condom, ever).
−	When entering a safe zone(love hotel, machine room, home and etc), there will be no extra dialoge to indicate that it is as risky day. Girls with normal/high/highest virtue with low intimacy won't follow into safe zones. The exception is the "Let's Study"-activity which is inviting to home and this will initiate raw sex.	+	=Statue and Status=
−	When coming inside during intercourse, the girl will make a remark about a possible pregnancy afterwards.	+	The Buddhist (Jizou) Statue is located behind the Martial Arts Dojo. Here, you can find out how everyone in the class views each other, as well as detailed information about everyone's stats.
−	*'''Low risk days
−	When trying to initatiate intercourse outside of a safe zone, girls will make remarks about it being a risky day:<br />
−	- normal/high/highest virtue girls with low intimacy may avoid sex with ambiguous tone.<br />
−	- all girls with high intimacy will accept raw sex with a bit of hesitating; "it might be dangerous but... never mind."
−	If a girl is impregnated, she will confront you about it 3-4 game-weeks later, which results in a gameover(back to title). The pregnant girl can then be transferred out of the class in order to keep on playing.	+	==Favorability Rating==
		+	The Favorability Rating panel is the first thing you see when accessing the Jizou Statue. You can click on anyone in the class, including yourself, and see how everyone else thinks of them. For more detailed information about every status see [[Artificial_Academy_2/Gameplay/Favorability Rating|Favorability Rating page]].
−	=H-events=	+	This screen can also show you lover relationships between everyone in the class, indicated by a small [[File:AA2_Heart_Icon.jpg]]
−	*'''Promised Sex
−	NPCs may promise sex to the PC or other NPCs under the condition of getting good marks on an exam. This is indicated by a dispostion change to "Lewd promise". Exams every three weeks on Saturday, beginning with academic exams, then athletic exams, then the club tournament. If the marks are good, the NPC will make an invitation for a H-session at their home.
−	*'''Sudden sex when skipping	+	==Personal Stats==
−	Characters can invite you to skip class with them in the Infirmary or on the Rooftop. You will fall asleep together, and there's a random chance the other character will wake first and initiate sex.	+	The second option the Jizou Statue gives you is viewing any character's personal stats.

		+
		+	* '''Club Grade''': Same as above, but for club activities. Range from "Eliminated in 1st round" to "Champion"
		+
		+	* '''First Sexual Partner''': Shows the person's first sexual partner. This will be a randomized Japanese name if this person was created with sexual experience. Otherwise it will be the first person in the class they have sex with.
		+
		+	* '''First Anal Partner''': Same as above, except with anal sex.
		+
		+	* '''Latest Sexual Partner''': Shows the person's most recent sexual partner. This is also randomized if the character was created with sexual experience, but will change as soon as they have sex again.
		+
		+	* '''Lover's Item''': Each person has three items (defined when they're created) that they can trade with other people. Only NPCs can offer to trade with you. The items aren't physical and don't do anything special.
		+
		+	* '''Friend's Item''': See above.
		+

		+
		+	==Leaderboards==
		+	The last option the Jizou Statue gives are the Leaderboards, which shows everyone's Wisdom, Strength, and Popularity, and ranks them from highest to lowest. Each stat has a value from 0-999.
		+
		+	[[File:Wisdom_Leaderboard.jpg]]'''Wisdom''': Randomly rolled from a range determined by the Intelligence stat set during character creation. This stat raises by doing well in homeroom, studying in the library, and any non-sport club (as well as the Other club).

		+
		+	[[File:Popularity_Leaderboard.jpg]]'''Popularity''': This stat raises by talking to people and having good relationships with them. A higher Popularity rating means more people will come up and talk to you, and more people will join your group activities. A high popularity may cause others to spontaneously join your club.
		+
		+	=Rumors=
		+	Going to the class or home together, going on dates, accepting confessions and starting or accepting any [[File:Contact_button.jpg|24px]] interaction will result in rumors about you spreading. Inevitably any lover will hear the rumor and may comment on it when you try to talk with them. This won't have any negative effects though. But if it hears a rumor that you had sex with someone else they will always confront you about it. You can deny the rumor and it won't have any negative effects although they may still mention them. If you admit that such a rumor is true then your lover will always get the <span style="color:RED">'''Unforgivable!'''</span> status. Note that if a lover hears a rumor about you and another NPC that is in a lover relationship with both then he/she will not be surprised or care about it.
		+
		+	=Events=
		+	Any of these can occur under special circumstances during the week, some recur regularly.
		+
		+	==Sudden Departure Events==
		+	Both the PC and the NPCs can get these events. In the case of the PC the game will end while in the case of the NPC they will become unplayable.
		+
		+	===Murder===
		+	[[File:AA2_murder.jpg|thumb|The PC getting killed]]
		+	These will only be caused by NPCs with the Evil trait.<br />
		+	An Evil character will attempt to kill another character marked for death, indicated by a red Favorability status toward the target:
		+	* [[File:Together_forever.jpg|115px]] - A lover has gained middle-range Hate points from the Evil character.
		+	* [[File:Get_you.jpg|115px]] - A character witnessed by the Evil character in a sexual act with the Evil character's lover gained middle-range Hate points from the Evil character.
		+
		+	The murder can be postponed by selecting the evil character as PC and a character can be saved from being killed if Hate is reduced to minimum-range and either Like or Love increase above Hate. [[File:AA2_memorial.jpg|right]][[File:AA2_cuffs.jpg|right]]
		+
		+	When choosing to attack, the Evil NPC will have a different walking animation (which is also slower). When the murder happens the screen will flash red and a scream will be heard. After the attack, the day will end, and time forwarded to the next morning, skipping bed time and the opportunity to save or change class roster.

FAQ

• Q: This person comes up to me and asks me to keep their secret, but I've never spoken to them before! Is this a bug?
  A: That character has the Exploitable trait. Its only purpose it serves is to remind you that the character is Exploitable.

  A: The color of the cursor reflect how much time left in that period. Blue mean you got a lot and red mean the period is almost over.

• Q: How can I change my player character?
  A: After sleeping click the class button on the top right and then select the character (marked by PC).

• Q: Where can I find the statue to view that stats?
  A: Behind the martial arts room. Refer to the Statue location picture on the right.

• Q: Can I get a gameover?
  A: Yes, see Events Section. If the PC is forced to transfer from any of those events, the game will fade to black and quit to title.

• Q: How do I get a girl pregnant?
  A: Cum inside her on a dangerous (risky) day more than once. It takes about 10 ejaculations in normal H and 5 in forced H. See the Pregnancy Page for more information.

• Q: How do I change the club that I'm in?
  A: You can change your club in the Staff Room by clicking on the black ledger book on the right. See the map page for directions and an illustration.

• Q: When I go to karaoke, music is not playing and all I got is just a image with characters sitting there for a few seconds. Can anyone help?
  A: The game didn't come up with karaoke music. You need to download and put .wav or .ogg music files in the data/sound/"subfolder". Put the file(s) in a subfolder that matches the personality you want the file to play for. A karaoke soundtrack set is also included in the HF Patch.

Configuration Options

All of the options on the System tab have hotkeys to toggle them, shown here and on the Shortcuts tab along with other controls. Many of these are self-explanatory.

• Show Shadow - This will only toggle shadow on and off if Shadows were selected in the graphics option from the launcher. This can be used to switch between finer rendering and better system performance at need.
• Show Focus - Display or hide the point the camera will rotate around. By default, it appears whenever the mouse is used to control the camera.
• Automatically Change Camera - If turned off, the camera won't update position when H position changes. The Reset key may function differently depending on where the camera was placed when this option is toggled off.

Starting with update v6, every game patch added new options to the "additional" page which can change the game behavior. For more details see the Cheats page

Your Bedroom

Here is where you begin and end every school day. You have the following options:

• Quit - exits the game, with confirmation dialog
• Title - quit to main menu, with confirmation dialog

These buttons are present in every phase of the day:

• Upper right class book - display classroom, with varying configuration options depending on the time of day
• Lower right tile - Advances time to next phase of the day

Saving

The game doesn't automatically save. The only known way to save, is to wait for the school day to finish. At bedtime, the Save and Load buttons appear beside the exit buttons, and this is the only time a class state can be saved. Any unsaved progress will be lost on quitting the game. Loading a class will return to your bedroom at night, the same time and day that was last saved.

Your Classroom

This displays a top-down diagram of the class seating arrangement; each box represents an empty desk, or the student who is seated there.

The player character is marked with the icon, and can be changed only in the morning by selecting another student.

Buttons that appear beneath the desk arrangement (available only at bedtime):

- Customize the uniform, P.E. outfit, swimming clothes and club outfit for the selected student. You can also set a standard uniform for all students.

- Removes the student from the selected desk. The student will be removed from the class save file and all stats will then be lost. If the transferred character had a good favorability rating towards the PC then it will leave a farewell message

- Adds a student to the selected desk from a menu of students in Character Maker data. Transferring in a new character after the first day will have him introduce himself to the class.

- Fills all empty desks semi-randomly with students in Character Maker data. Note that it will never add the same student twice, even if there are not enough students in Character Maker data.

It is important to understand that characters created with the Editor only funtion as a template in class creation: any changes made afterwards, both inside the Editor or to class members, has no effect on the other. Completely invisible to the player, the game also assigns a set of AI-behavior to the added classmates in order to prevent two or more characters of the same type acting the same, which would most likely happen when choosing several males, since there are only five types to select from.

Teacher

Artificial Academy 2 has introduced the ability to play as or have an NPC act as a teacher. The teacher is whoever is chosen in the top middle spot of the class. Teachers are never tested on academic or athletic exams, though they may enter the club tournament. Teachers can gain stats in the same way as students by conducting the classes, lessons and club meetings. PC teachers lack the ability to study or exercise independently, but may do so with students one-on-one or in groups. A PC teacher's performance effects the student's development rates. Teachers will never fight.

Teachers have a general patrol of the school, from the staff room, up to the class room, then up to the roof and back down. They can easily be found in any of these areas. Teachers will never leave the school before every student leaves, including the PC.

Note that Normal and High virtue teachers form romantic and sexual relationships even harder.

Teachers can be fired from their job if they skip three classes or are caught engaging in sexual activity with a student.

General Controls

• Left-Click - Activates buttons, moves the PC to interact with the clicked character or go to another room. A blue box with the name of the next room will appear when an exit zone is selected.
• Right-Click - Stop in place.
• Middle-Click - Moves the PC to interact with target named in the top left corner.
• Mousewheel - Selects between characters in the same map area as the player. The selected character will be named in the top left box, and a circle will appear around their feet. A yellow circle means they're already interacting with another character and interacting with them will interrupt whatever they're doing.

The color of the mouse cursor indicates time remaining in the current period, changing from dark blue at the start of the period, through light blue, green, yellow, and orange to dark red at end of the period.

The lower right tile advances time to the next period of the day.

If two characters target each other for interaction then the first one will initiate its interaction when they meet.

Map Select - Opens the map to select a room to move to. The PC will automatically pass through any intervening room, (usually) selecting the shortest route.

Character Select - Opens the class roster to select a character to move to and interact with. Note that the selected character can be in a gender-restricted room. This is also where the "Load" button can always be found.

Hotkeys

Following game update v4 screenshots with the hud display included can be made by pressing F9

PC Auto Mode

Game update v7 added the ability to set your PC to automatic play mode with the Z key. While in auto mode, your PC will act the same way NPCs act, with the frequency of the interaction determined by the PC's sociability. However, there will be no H in auto mode and you can't see the actions your PC takes part in.

The auto mode can only be turned on/off in your bedroom and during school you can't click any button except the chime one.

Since update v8 you can also determine whether the auto PC will interrupt the NPCs' interactions.

Statue and Status

The Buddhist (Jizou) Statue is located behind the Martial Arts Dojo. Here, you can find out how everyone in the class views each other, as well as detailed information about everyone's stats.

Favorability Rating

The Favorability Rating panel is the first thing you see when accessing the Jizou Statue. You can click on anyone in the class, including yourself, and see how everyone else thinks of them. For more detailed information about every status see Favorability Rating page.

This screen can also show you lover relationships between everyone in the class, indicated by a small

Personal Stats

The second option the Jizou Statue gives you is viewing any character's personal stats.

• Partner Count: How many total lovers this person has had, counting ex-lovers as well.

• Sexual Partners Count: How many different people this person has had sex with.

• Rejected Count: How many times this person has asked someone out and gotten rejected. This doesn't seem to include being rejected by your character.

• Victory count: How many fights this person has won.

• Winning Over Someone Count: How many times this person has contested with someone for another person's attention and won.

• Classes Skipped: How many times this person has skipped class.

• Academy Grade: The grade this person got on their academic test. The grades are blank until tests start happening in your class and range from "F" to "A".

• Sport Grade: Same as above, but for the sports test. Range from "F" to "A".

• Club Grade: Same as above, but for club activities. Range from "Eliminated in 1st round" to "Champion"

• First Sexual Partner: Shows the person's first sexual partner. This will be a randomized Japanese name if this person was created with sexual experience. Otherwise it will be the first person in the class they have sex with.

• First Anal Partner: Same as above, except with anal sex.

• Latest Sexual Partner: Shows the person's most recent sexual partner. This is also randomized if the character was created with sexual experience, but will change as soon as they have sex again.

• Lover's Item: Each person has three items (defined when they're created) that they can trade with other people. Only NPCs can offer to trade with you. The items aren't physical and don't do anything special.

• Friend's Item: See above.

• Sexual Item: See above.

Coupling Stats

The third option the Jizou Statue gives will show H stats for any two characters.

• H Compatibility: A couple will develop H Compatibility each time they have sex.

• Total Sex: How many times this couple has had sex. This doesn't include non-penetrative sex; ie oral and manual.

• Vaginal Sex: Same as above for vaginal sex.

• Anal Sex: Same as above for anal sex.

• Condom: How many times this couple has used a condom during sex.

• Climax: How many total times the two have climaxed during sex.

• Simultaneous Climax: How many times this couple has climaxed together.

• Total Cum: The total amount of cum produced by the male.

• Cum In Genital: The amount of cum entered into the vagina.

• Cum In Anal: Same as above, but for anal.

• Cum Swallowed: Same as above, but for oral.

Leaderboards

The last option the Jizou Statue gives are the Leaderboards, which shows everyone's Wisdom, Strength, and Popularity, and ranks them from highest to lowest. Each stat has a value from 0-999.

Wisdom: Randomly rolled from a range determined by the Intelligence stat set during character creation. This stat raises by doing well in homeroom, studying in the library, and any non-sport club (as well as the Other club).

Strength: Randomly rolled from a range determined by the Strength stat set during character creation. This stat raises by doing well in sports, exercising, and any sport club (as well as the Other club). Movement rate increases with higher Strength.

Popularity: This stat raises by talking to people and having good relationships with them. A higher Popularity rating means more people will come up and talk to you, and more people will join your group activities. A high popularity may cause others to spontaneously join your club.

Rumors

Going to the class or home together, going on dates, accepting confessions and starting or accepting any interaction will result in rumors about you spreading. Inevitably any lover will hear the rumor and may comment on it when you try to talk with them. This won't have any negative effects though. But if it hears a rumor that you had sex with someone else they will always confront you about it. You can deny the rumor and it won't have any negative effects although they may still mention them. If you admit that such a rumor is true then your lover will always get the Unforgivable! status. Note that if a lover hears a rumor about you and another NPC that is in a lover relationship with both then he/she will not be surprised or care about it.

Events

Any of these can occur under special circumstances during the week, some recur regularly.

Sudden Departure Events

Both the PC and the NPCs can get these events. In the case of the PC the game will end while in the case of the NPC they will become unplayable.

Murder

These will only be caused by NPCs with the Evil trait.
An Evil character will attempt to kill another character marked for death, indicated by a red Favorability status toward the target:

• - A lover has gained middle-range Hate points from the Evil character.
• - A character witnessed by the Evil character in a sexual act with the Evil character's lover gained middle-range Hate points from the Evil character.

The murder can be postponed by selecting the evil character as PC and a character can be saved from being killed if Hate is reduced to minimum-range and either Like or Love increase above Hate.

When choosing to attack, the Evil NPC will have a different walking animation (which is also slower). When the murder happens the screen will flash red and a scream will be heard. After the attack, the day will end, and time forwarded to the next morning, skipping bed time and the opportunity to save or change class roster. Flowers will appear on the victim's desk in the class roster, and a pair of handcuffs will appear on the killer's desk. Both characters will become unavailable as PC or NPC.

An attacked character with the Lucky trait may escape injury, and an attacker with the Lucky trait may escape suspicion.

Teacher termination

A teacher will be forced to leave the school if it:

• Skips 3 classes
• Is witnessed engaging in public sex by a character with either High/Highest virtue and low enough Favorability or with the "Class Prez" trait.

Gust of Wind

Rarely, when you are outdoors (more exactly when you see light wind blowing a character's hair when talking) and a girl attempts to talk with you, a gust of wind may blow her skirt (if she's wearing one). Afterwards she will ask if you looked. If you admit it she will blush if she loves you, otherwise she will slap you.

• This event was added in the v11 patch and is not present in prior versions

NPCs playing with themselves

NPCs with lower virtue will go somewhere and masturbate when they're horny, such as after witnessing a H scene or when they're in the horny mood (frequency increased by the Lewd/Perverted trait). If you catch such a NPC and he/she likes/loves you enough, you may be approached sometime afterwards, and asked for sex while mentioning that you watched them masturbate.

Exams and Evaluations

Every 2 weeks an exam is held on Saturday, and students will be graded according to their performance, which will be displayed in their Personal Stats. Club rankings are determined by the average Club Score of each member, so it is possible for a Club of 2 members to tie with or win against a Club of 20+ members.

Lewd promise

During the week prior to the exam/tournament, a girl with enough Like/Love toward yours may offer a Lewd Promise: H at their home if your grade is sufficient. If you accept, your status toward each other will fixed as Lewd Promise and that girl will refuse sex with you until after the exam. If you succeed, the offering girl may approach you any evening to invite you to their home. Girls with the Cuts Class / Wild trait may approach you anytime.

Requesting public sex will also expend the Promise, whether it's interrupted or not, as will taking the girl to a private room. Turning down a repayment invitation will cause depression in the offering character, but not annul their Promise.

If the offering character is High Virtue, or Normal Virtue but in a relationship or a virgin then they will refuse public H and private rooms so the invitation home is the only benefit you can get from the Promise.

Guys and girls with Highest Virtue will never offer lewd promises.

Infirmary H

Characters with the Wild trait and enough Like toward you can invite you to skip class with them in the Infirmary or on the Rooftop. In the Infirmary you will fall asleep together, and there's a random chance the other character will wake first and initiate sex.

Random H

No choice H

It is possible for a character with the "Evil" trait to approach your character and have sex with you without explicit warning or consent. Consent varies; you can agree to follow the character and, upon reaching the destination, they'll initiate the sex scene. Alternatively, a character with Low/Lowest virtue can approach the PC and instantly initiate a sex scene without any sort of prompt. This will only happen in the evening if you are lovers with the character and have not have sex with them for the entire day. Both situations are considered "normal" sex scenes (the Force Sex music does not play).

Consolation H

A low virtue NPC who is in the "Sadness" mood may ask you to comfort them through H if you're their sex-friend.

Game Endings

Murder The game will end if the PC is killed by a character with the "Evil" trait right after the NPC gives its last words. See the Sudden Departure section above.

Teacher termination If the teacher is the PC and gets fired the game will end.

Expulsion If the PC impregnated a girl but the girl no longer loves you then you will be expelled in the next Monday.

Pregnancy Ending

The only non-bad ending. You can get this ending by impregnating a girl (typically with 10 vaginal ejaculations during one week) and then maintaining a lover relationship with a high favorability rating. On the next Monday, she will reveal her pregnancy to the PC and the game will end.
