Most commonly asked questions and their answers, search for keywords to find your issue quickly.

If your question is not answered below, check this FAQ for AI-Shoujo for more answers. Honey Select 2 is built on top of AI-Shoujo and shares a lot of features and code. Because of this most of the FAQs for AI-Shoujo also apply to Honey Select 2.

If you can't seem to fix your issue, visit the #hs2-help channel on the IllusionSoft Discord server (read the pinned messages before ask questions). Note that if you just want to get the game working it might be easiest to install HF Patch (search below for more info).

General FAQ

  • Q : Where can I buy the game?
    A : The Japanese release is available on DMM. The English Steam release is not available yet.
  • Q : How do I Install the game?
    A : Run "ILLUSION HoneySelect2.msi" in "setup" folder and install the game in "C:\illusion\HoneySelect2".
  • Q : Installed my game but it’s not running!
    A : Try these workarounds in this specific order:
  1. Check if your system meets the minimum requirements in the main page of this wiki.
  2. Move your game files to a short patch. The recommended folder is C:\Illusion\HoneySelect2. Avoid installing in the "desktop" or in "program files" since they can have special access permissions.
  3. If your Windows is not the Japanese version, install HF Patch. Alternatively you can install just the "base mods" in Installing mods page.
  4. If you have an old AMD CPU (before Ryzen), remove "lib_burst_generated.dll" from the folders "HoneySelect2_Data/Plugins/" and "StudioNEOV2_Data/Plugins/". Don't do that for AMD Ryzen or Intel CPUs.
  5. If nothing of that helps ask in #hs2-help on the Discord server (read the pinned messages before ask questions).
  • Q : Where to download the latest update, dlc, mods and translations?
    A : You can use HF Patch. If you want to manually install mods and plugins check the Installing mods page.
  • Q : I am trying to install the HF patch, but I have a bunch of files. Which of them do I use?
    A : None of them. You may have clicked the green button and downloaded the source files and not the actual program. HF Patch is an executable and can be found by following the "Readme, help and download" link on this page here: https://github.com/ManlyMarco/HS2-HF_Patch/releases . Note: Do not Install HF Path if you use any kind of Repack.
  • Q: Can I run Honey Select 2 in Windows XP?
    A: No, Honey Select will only runs on Windows 7 and above due to the use of DirectX 11 graphics API. It also requires a new version of .NET framework and maybe other features which doesn't come with the 10 years old Windows 7, so you'll need to install manually.
  • Q: Does Honey Select 2 require the game DVD image to be mounted in order to play?
    A: No, Honey Select doesn't requires the game DVD image to be mounted while playing. This is related to the fact that it uses the Unity 3d engine instead of Illusion's own Yayoi engine.

Main Game FAQ

Be sure to check in-game manual! Press F3. (It is in Japanese though if unmodded)

  • Q : So I have a girl who hates me, but I want her to stop hating on me?
    A : Use love positions (missionary is advised) and make her cum without you cum inside her, this should take around 1-2 tries and her feeling will change from hate to love (favor) to you.
    Note : This method also applies to slave status. If the slave status still not changing, try cumming together.
  • Q : Help! I'm forced to break a girl in order to get my achievement, how could I?
    A : I know how you feel, it's truly can't be helped. Use forced position (e.g. forced missionary) and BDSM (spanking etc.) on her repeatedly until the red bar is full, this could happen in multiple runs. You could break a girl in a single run if you use multiple men position (which is undesirable for a man who treasures her girl). If the girl is dependent (lowermost purple bar is full), it is impossible to break a girl.
  • Q : My girl is broken, how do I heal her back?
    A : Use love positions (e.g. missionary) but having only you cum inside her, the more you cum inside her, the more healed she gets. (May need testing if this can be done in a single run)
  • Q : How to change her feeling into a slave?
    A : Cum inside her repeatedly (using male-dominant position is advised e.g. Doggy Style) without having her cum.
  • Q : What is the fastest way to make a girl dependent on me? (the purple bar)
    A : Make sure her H status (the uppermost bar) is maxed, use multiple girl positions with her set as your first girl. (Tested using W Blowjob (Swallow Cum) + Double Intercrural + Double Cowgirl)

  • Q : Why are player hands passing through the girl?
    A : Take off her shoes. Yeah, is that weird...
  • Q : Now is the player penis passing through the girl…

  • Q : I'm having a huge frame drop when player cum outside!
    A : Change "Semen Display" to "simplified" in settings.
