These are download links for the HF Patch for Koikatsu. The full patch release post can be found here. Check it for a guide and more information.

Download Links

Full patch v1.18 (27GB, most people should use this)

  • MediaFire 

  • pixeldrain (click the "DL all files" button on the left to download all parts at once)

  • DropMeFiles (the website may put a password on the downloads, read the popups)

Light patch v1.18 (4GB, read below)

Which version should I get?

  • Full patch contains everything, while light patch only contains patches and plugins but no item mods. If you are a new user or unsure, you should get the full patch.

  • If you only want to play the main game with the default characters, you can get the light patch to save space, BUT if you want to download custom character cards or scenes in the future you will need to come back and get the full patch. DO NOT use KKManager to update mods until you install the full patch.

  • If you recently updated mods with KKManager, you can probably get the light patch (light patch does not contain Sideloader Modpacks). If KKManager shows more than 5GB of updates, downloading the full patch will be faster than updating with KKManager + downloading the light patch.

How to download and install the patch

Video guides

Text guide

  • 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.

  • Start the included .exe file. A UAC prompt should appear. When you click Yes the patch installer will start.

  • Follow instructions in the installation wizard (for most users all you need to do is keep pressing Next).

  • If the installation location was not automatically detected or is wrong, you will have to show the patch 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.

  • At the start of installation the patch will verify if all of the downloaded parts are in order. This can take a couple of minutes to complete. If any parts are missing or corrupted, the patch will show an error message detailing which part you should redownload. If that happens: close the patch, download the bad file again (try using a different download link and/or web browser) and retry installing the patch.

  • After the patch installation finishes you can remove the downloaded patch files. That being said, I suggest keeping them in case your game breaks for any reason and you need to install the patch again to fix it.

If you have issues downloading mod updates through KKManager, try the patron-only update server available here (don't use it if normal servers work fine since it might end up slower).

What to do in case of download issues

  • If the download is very slow or fails to start, try a different download link and/or a different web browser. If all links are slow test your connection speed. If you have a VPN try changing the server or turning it off. If all fails you might have better luck with the torrent download.

  • Make sure you download ALL parts to the same folder and that the parts all have their original names. You need ALL parts for the patch to install properly.

  • If you see any messages about corrupted files you'll have to re-download the offending part (or all of the parts). Try using a different download source and/or a different web browser.

  • 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.

What to do in case of installation issues

  • If you get a "This patch is inside of the game directory" or "Path too long" error, move the patch files to a folder like "D:\HFP\" and try again.

  • If you get a "Different game is detected" error, make sure this is the correct patch for your game. KKS in the title means that this patch is for  Koikatsu Sunshine (doesn't work on Koikatu and Koikatsu Party).

  • If after installing the patch you have issues running the game, restart your PC and try to install the patch again with default settings. Try moving the game to a simple folder like "D:\Games\KKS".

  • If after installing the patch Studio hangs when loading, start KKManager (it's in a folder in game directory) and click "Look for updates" at the top, then tell it to update the Studio modpack.

  • 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 patch to work. 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.

  • If your antivirus is flagging the .exe file make sure that you've downloaded the patch by following links in this post. If you are sure the download came from the right place, it's most likely a false positive (it's a common issue with non-signed application installers).

Hi @Marco, Part 5 of KKS HF Patch is broken on Mediafire; https://www.mediafire.com/file_premium/envh6a2uts5d9u7/Koikatsu_Sunshine_HF_Patch_v1.11-5.bin/file

Nestor Collazo

Hi, I installed the Extension DLC before installing the HF patch, is that OK? If not, how do I fix?

Michaelous

Do I need Japanese language pack for windows in order to make the game work? I know some games dose that. just making sure if I need it or your patch makes it not needed.

what do i do with the dropmefiles download???

Jeffrey Lenz

First of all, thanks for your all your work!! Second, does this fix the "anger on forced insert" issue, havent played KKS in a while but just curious.

ManlyMarco

Not sure what issue you're referring to. If it was reported it was probably fixed.

Kyrri Ontari

Are you going to add a trap mod eventually like with Koikatsu Party?

Anonymous

is there going to be a acutal pregnacy mod too? with the preg system like kk?

Anonymous

Hi so the text above says this doenst provide the DLC. Is there DLC for KKS specifically?

ManlyMarco

At the moment there is no paid DLC for KKS, the text is reused from patches for different games.

ManlyMarco

What part do you have trouble with exactly? Check the walkthrough videos linked in the post.

Any possible update to VR support? doesn't work with rift-s saying it doesn't recognize it and can't cast to source.

ManlyMarco

I have a Rift S and it works fine, so it's most likely an issue on your end.

Victor Luna

Hello, I have the betterepack R1.3 installed, can I re-install this version of HF, over my current installation? or is it simply impossible? Thank you.

Hey there! So I am still running into that error issue mentioned about "Different game is detected". I feel like I'm missing something- Do I have to have Sunshine installed as well? I know it was mentioned you don't have to. I feel like a goof :') Sorry for the silly question, and appreciate you so much!

ManlyMarco

This patch is only for KK Sunshine. If you have old KK then you need the KK patch.

how to fix file verification faild am sure all parts are download to same and original names (HF patch KKP full and HF patch KKS light version) it same problem

ManlyMarco

If you get missing file errors then the filenames must be wrong. If you get a hash error then the files are in some way corrupted or modified, make sure no other software is interfering and that your drive isn't dying.

1.7.11 bin does not exist in the zip file

ManlyMarco

Make sure the whole thing finished downloading if you clicked download all files at once, maybe the download got interrupted. In that case you can download any missing or corrupted files separately.

Joanice

Thank you so much for your hard work, the time you spend putting these together, and for your continued dedication to modding. Keep it up!

Tried all download methods but they all failed Can you provide a link to Google drive or Mega?

ManlyMarco

All 3 mirrors and as well as the torrent all failed? Are you sure this isn't a problem with your PC or network connection instead? Can you ask for help on the discord server in the #help channel?

Hey, so I just downloaded the most recent patch here and the POV in H scenes is not activating properly. Would this be an issue on my end perhaps? It happens if I don't exit the POV before ending the H scene. And when I dont, using the POV is not possible until I restart the game

Anonymous

Hello ManlyMarco, did you do something different for this update? I am refering to the way it changed 1.8's files. Norton flagged 1.9. All other versions were fine. I got this patch to work without Norton killing it by installing it on a clean KKS I saved as a just in case. But to change my old Koikatsu Sunshine file name I had to go into safe mode. After normal restarting the computer my Koikatsu Sunshine folder was still in use.

ManlyMarco

No idea why norton would flag it, other AVs don't seem to have issues with it. You probably couldn't modify the file because norton kept it locked so you'd have to add an exclusion in that.

ManlyMarco

Hello, are you using the backspace key to enter POV? It worked fine last time I used it.

Anonymous

Yeah I am, but if I dont press it before leaving the H scene, then it wont work again until I restart the game

i download the hf update but it also removed some of my mods. how do fix this

ManlyMarco

You have to uncheck the option to remove old mods when installing the patch or backup your mods from the mods folder before installing the patch.

ManlyMarco

If you had the patch remove them then they are permanently deleted. You'll have to try the usual file recovery methods.
