Checksums

You can make sure that the files you downloaded are not corrupted by comparing their checksums with the original checksums listed below. All checksums are in MD5 format. 

  • Part 1: 16dd9f31a6c473ddbbfa68fd2c1feb3c
  • Part 2: 53cf8672c7bb3ab3d9f5fe09e23af5df
  • Part 3: a44d89526d0017a9e6cff6cd126aab06
  • Extract helper exe: db46150af0b9ff5ace47f32f43598f6d

You can calculate checksums of your downloaded files by using the WinMD5 utility. Simply start it and point it to each of the downloaded files and paste the checksum from above. If a checksum doesn't match then you will have to redownload that part (if this happens then try a different download source).

How to use

You can watch a video walk-through here.

  • Download all parts to the same directory. You can mix parts from different sources, but the file names need to stay the same. You can use any directory other than the game directory.
  • Optionally verify the downloaded files with the checksums above.
  • Extract the patch by running the included .exe file or by extracting first part (.001) with 7zip. Doing this will extract from all parts. Extract the files to any directory other than the game directory. At this step you will have to provide the password mentioned above (if the password prompt doesn't appear it means something is wrong with your files).
  • Run the extracted patch .exe as normal. When asked for the installation location point it to where your game is installed. If you bought the game on Steam, go to your steam library > properties of the game > view local files to find where the game is installed.
  • You can remove the downloaded and extracted installation files now if you want.

In case of issues

  • Make sure you downloaded ALL parts to the same folder and that the parts all have the same name. You need ALL parts for the archive to open properly.
  • Verify that your downloaded files are not currupted by comparing with the checksums above.
  • Use latest version of 7zip to extract the archive, some other archiving programs are known to have issues.
  • If you see any messages about corrupted files you'll have to re-download the offending part (or all of the parts).
  • If the installer asks you for another disc it means that your download was not extracted correctly and is missing files, or you renamed or removed some of the extracted files.
  • Make sure that your antivirus is not flagging and removing the .exe file.

I'm using the direct download links. I'm having issues when I use 7zip to extract. I'm also unable to use the included exe to extract.

Mecha Cake

Thanks, that worked.

Next thing I ran into is the characters in school mode not fully loading in. Some of them don't have hair, etc. Is this solved any specific way you can think of or does it just need extra time to load all the resources?

ManlyMarco

Go to game settings and scroll down, make sure that showing all accessories is turned on. If that doesn't help go to plugin settings and turn on high poly mode, and turn off async clothes loading (it's likely one of these two, high poly will make the game run slower so try disabling async first).

ManlyMarco

It should be compatible. I believe it's made for old version of bepin so it should be placed directly in the bepinex folder.

When I extract the first part I get a 5.8GB 7zip file which I can not further extract. What do I do now or did I do something wrong?

ManlyMarco

This means the files you downloaded are corrupted or some of the files are missing. When extracting the first part you should immediately see a password prompt. Check the "In case of issues" section in the post above for things to try.

None of the files are corrupted and the passwort check also poped up. I extract it and still the same problem. Which files are missing then? I am a little lost here. Sorry.

Anonymous

I figured it out. Thx for the help.

The game keeps reverting back to before the HF 3.2 patch. I've got it working twice now just for it to launch as if i never installed it the next time i boot up. Any idea why that is or how i can prevent this? I have Steam auto update turned off as far as i know too.

I'm trying to download the patch but when I open the file with WinRAR this comes up. ! C:\Users\Owner\Downloads\kk_v3.2.7z (1).001: The archive is corrupt

Diakai

What did you find out? I'm having that issue too..

ManlyMarco

Try restarting your PC and running the game as administrator. If that helps try to start kkmanager from game directory and do Tools > Fix > Permissions.

ManlyMarco

The file got renamed, the (1) shouldn't be there. You need to have all files in the same folder and all files need to have their original names. WinRAR is not the best option, I suggest using 7zip instead if you keep having issues.

how do I get the dlcs? and after I install this I can also freely install any other mods or etc for the game right?

ManlyMarco

There are purchase links for the DLC in this guide https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1772989046 After installing the DLCs you'll need to reinstall the patch. Yes, you can install other mods afterwards as you wish, but you'll lose your warranty :)

Why he said can not open the file as [7z] archive is not archive?

ManlyMarco

Make sure you downloaded all files and the files aren't corrupted. Read the Checksums section of post above to learn how to check if the files are not corrupted. Also watch the video walk-through to see if you are doing it right.

well i gave you 5 bucks and all it got me was download links that down work or want more money, waste of time and 5 dollars, this was supposed to be easy.

This might be a stupid question but when I try to extract the HF patch 3.2 files its asking me for a password?

Random Boi

there has to be a better way of doing this

What do you do when you get the second disk error? I saw what caused it but idk how to fix. I don't get why the thing didn't correctly download all files? Thanks

ManlyMarco

I just checked and the links work and all of them are free to use. What exactly are you having issues with? Click on the MediaFire link, then click on each of the files to download them. It works the same with other sources.

ManlyMarco

Try to re-extract the patch with the included .exe or with 7zip and make sure to not move or rename the patch files. If the error persists then follow the "Checksums" section in the post above to figure out which part is at fault and needs to be redownloaded.

ManlyMarco

Absolutely, I'm slowly working on something better but was busy making mods and a patch for AIS/HS2 at the moment.

Thanks

Files 002 and 003 are corrupted for me, is this a common issue and do I need to redownload just those files or all of them?

ManlyMarco

Are you sure they are corrupted? Check the checksums, and if different try to download from a different source and/or try using a different web browser to download.

Anonymous

Tried again this morning when I was more patient, it works fine

Anonymous

The part one cames as a zip but the others come as a 002 or 003 type file, do i extract the zip to get the 001 file?

Anonymous

After I run the game, many words have become 口, which cannot be displayed normally. is this normal?

Anonymous

anytime i download one of these it says the file is corrupted

ManlyMarco

Are you sure it's a zip file? Maybe the file extension is just hidden and it's actually a 001 file. Try extracting it and see if it asks for a password, if it does then it should be fine.

ManlyMarco

That does not sound normal. If you have KK Party then verify game files and download any pending updates in Steam library and then reinstall the patch.

ManlyMarco

Try a different source and a different web browser to download the problematic parts.

hi! steam just released a patch that seemed to literally fuck everything up, either that or i fucked something up, but all i did was open the game? It's gone back to the shitty steam version with no story mode and almost all of my characters are gone :( they're still in my folder, i tried reinstalling both the game and your patch and am still stuck with the base game. Am I doing something wrong? or does the patch just need to be updated on your end? please help haha Either way keep up the good work man what youve done so far is awesome!

ManlyMarco

I don't think there were any updates to the game. Try to restart your PC and reinstall the patch. If you seem to lose mods randomly then try to run the game as administrator, it might be a file permission issue that the patch wasn't able to fix for some reason.

最高のPatchです。本当にありがとうございます。

A studio didn't read any more from a start screen after patch was put in. It was downloaded again and it was put in again, but I don't recover. How should it be done?

ManlyMarco

What exactly is happening? Try to change language in launcher to Japanese.
