Installing the Game

Quick step-by-step guide

1. Extract DISK1.mdf and DISK2.mdf (DO NOT extract the .mds file!) to e.g. C:\Downloads\SBPR
2. Mount C:\Downloads\SBPR\DISK1.mdf with Daemontools Lite (other mounting software has been known to fail with Japanese games, so please use Daemontools Lite - it's completely free)
3. DO NOT autorun, but explore the mounted dvd and right-click Startup.exe and select Run with Japanese locale as administrator (you need HF pApploc for the right-click options).
4. Click the second button from the top to start the Sexy Beach Premium Resort setup.
5. Click (N) a few times and wait while the setup installs.
6. About two-thirds the setup will ask for disk 2, so mount DISK2.mdf and then click OK.
7. To run the game, simply right-click the InitSettings.exe in the game folder (or the shortcut linked to it), select Run with Japanese locale as administrator to open the launcher and then click the ゲーム開始 button on the far left to run the game.

Simple step-by-step guide

1. Extract DISK1.mdf and DISK2.mdf (DO NOT extract the .mds file!) from .rar archive(s) to e.g. C:\Downloads\SBPR
2. Extract the content of both .mdf files (using 7-Zip or WinRAR) to e.g. C:\Downloads\SBPR\setup, overwriting existing files. You should end up with five .cab files in there.
3. Start setup.exe. The locale doesn't matter in this case.
4. Click (N) a few times and wait while the setup installs.
5. Run InitSettings.exe in the game folder to change video options (resolution and picture quality) in accordance with your preferences and hardware.
6. Once you're satisfied with video options, you can skip the launcher and run the game or poser directly from the appropriate executable (SexyBeachPR_32.exe, SexyBeachStudio_64.exe etc.) in the game directory.

Gameplay FAQ

Out of focus

• Q: Is there a way to get the close up on characters not to blur out (see picture "Out of focus" on the right)?
  A: It is caused by you having moved the focus point of the camera past the character (probably by "zooming" in by holding both mouse buttons). To fix it, click Reset camera or move the focus (white cross visible when moving the camera) to be at the center of the character. Click the right mouse button and move left/right to zoom instead of both mouse buttons.

• Q: How do I increase my massage skill past certain level?
  A: When you open your item box (M -> items) there is a green bar there. It's your current massage experience. You have to fill that bar before you advance your level. To do so - simply initiate some H scene (there is a bench and a couple beds near Guru so you don't need to walk far). Just enter and exit the scene a couple times and your bar will be filled, then talk to Guru again to level up.

• Q: How do I add my custom made girl in the game?
  A: On the title screen click the 'Sign Up' button. You'll see 2 list, list of your custom made girls (on the left) and list of girls on the island (on the right). Choose your custom made girl on the left list and add it to the right (use the button with the >>> in the middle of the screen). Click the 2nd button (on the right) on the bottom of the screen to accept change. Hard part now is to find the girl on the island cause she is randomly placed. Go into config and max out 'Heroine count on island' to improve your chance of finding her.
  

-Alternatively-
If you have a main girl (or any girl) with 3 hearts. Ask them out (option where they follow you) and go into the Dressing Room (F). There you can replace that girl with your custom girl and go straight into H scenes without having to get more hearts. More info in Custom Characters.

Technical FAQ

• Q: None of my custom character are appearing or they appear glitched in game?
  A: These issues are usually connected to the games PNG files being corrupted in some form. Try the options below

1. If you have png files in the chara/female folder which are not saved correctly and which the game cant read it will show you no files at all. Remove all the png files from your folder, and step by step put just those files in you know work 100% correctly. This way you will find the corrupt files or the png you downloaded but cannot be loaded by the game. credit to RazRazor

• Q: The resolution I want to play at is not shown in the launcher. Is there anything I can do?
  A: You can manually override the resolution by editing UserData/setup.xml file. However, DO NOT run the launcher afterwards (because it will be reset your values to default 1280x720) unless you messed up and need a settings reset. Run the game executable (SexyBeachPR_32.exe etc.) DIRECTLY instead. Note that if you use non-16:9 resolution, some minor glitches may occur, during cut-scenes for example.

• Q: The game lags. Is there a way to improve performance?
  A: I have an ATI R9 x280, quality 0, 1 or 2 is 10fps or less. Open Catalyst -> add SBPR to the 3D application list -> Overwrite all you can with ATI instead of allowing the 3D application to choose. The game will still be laggy, is maybe 20-26 fps and looks much better.

• Q: I need more in-game money and/or mini-games points. How do I cheat?
  A: Use either general cheating tools (such as Cheat Engine or ArtMoney) or edit your mainData.dat save file located in UserData\save directory using hex editor of your choice (make the backup first!). The value you're looking for is around offset 0x980. For example, new game starts with 3000, so you will see "B8 0B 00 00" byte sequence at offset 0x98A or so. If you want to have 1000000 instead, change that "B8 0B 00 00" to "40 42 0F 00". Save game is unprotected as of now, so when you load this modified save, you'll have your million for free. As for the mini-games points, they are stored 4 (null) bytes past money.
