HF Patch for KKS v1.19 (mods up to 2024/06/24) (Patreon)
Content
An unofficial patch for Koikatsu Sunshine that installs the latest fan-made English translations and essential mods. It also fixes many common issues with the game. It will allow you to load all character cards and scenes and give you countless content creation and gameplay improvements.
Read the full HF Patch manual to learn more about what it is, what it does, how to use it, and how to solve common issues.
Koikatsu is split into two parts: character and scene creation tools (character maker and Studio), and an adventure game with story mode (it can use your custom characters, but not scenes). You can see preview videos of the game and some of the mods here.
HF Patch does not contain the full game, paid expansions or any other pirated content. You have to buy the game and expansions separately. Unfortunately there is no English/Steam release and the game is no longer being sold, so the only way to get it is to buy it second hand.
The base game (Koikatsu Sunshine), and by extension this patch are not suitable for minors. If you are under 18 years old you can not use this patch. The base game and this patch contain only characters of age 18 or higher. The creator of this patch is not responsible for creations of its users and prohibits any unlawful use of this software.
Downloads
This download contains the entire HF Patch and can be used offline. You can use qBittorrent or a similar torrent client to open the magnet link. Old patch versions are available in direct download links.

Read before installing
Before installing check this installation guide and FAQ.
If you have problems with installing the patch, check the solutions to common issues and the rest of the readme.
The EX expansion is entirely optional and can be skipped. It adds 4 new personalities with new type of events unique to them (old characters can't use these events). Remember that if you add the expansion later you will have to install HF Patch again afterwards.
If you need any further help check the wiki first, and if that doesn't help then ask in the #help channel of the Koikatsu Discord server. The #help channel is the fastest way to get help, you can even search it for your issue to see if someone already answered it. There are also chat and card sharing channels on the server!
To keep the download size reasonable, some rarely used and very old content mods or studio mods might not be included. If you have trouble loading characters or scenes, you can download the missing mods by clicking on the Update button in the game's launcher.
You can see the source code here and information about included plugins here.
