Hi again. I was never able to get episode 2 working even though I am doing everything via the itch.io app. However, if I downgrade EP1 & Home from the lastest version 7 to version 5 EP2 it finally shows up. Niether version 6 or 7 work with EP2 for some reason.
since its a sandbox mode it most likely limits your executable from reaching other files outside of your installation folder. So since you have Home and episode 2 in different folders it cant access it. You should look at putting episodes as a subfolder in the home programs root.
Hi there. I've followed the instructions provided and I am using the itch.io app. I've installed, reinstalled, tried different versions, all sorts of things, but EP2 still does not show up even though I seem to have the newer content. Interestingly, I tried to an older version of the home app and EP2 did, in fact, show up, but it was pretty broken. So, it seems the content is there, but I simply cannot get the app to work properly. Any help would be great.
I've also attempted to do this manually per the instructions you posted, but the zip names don't match from EP1. I tried a bunch of different scenarios. Simply not having any luck getting any EP2 to work. :(
I should also mention that I just reinstalled windows, wiped my windows OS drive. Installed Itch.io and then Home + EP1 and EP2. Same deal. EP2 content never shows up even though I have EP2 options like the dress up thing and the theatre. No EP2 chip.
In Ep2, are the videos displayed in the media room are actual files or are they being streamed. I can't get them to play, and I can't seem to skip that section.
REALLY UPSET with this! The disk for part II is not able to be put inside the card slot. Already read the comments here; the workaround (putting it below the slot) doesnt work.
Hiya DasHouse, we just tried out both of these install flows, and they have fixed the issue. Manually downloading a game on Itch built with their DLC system is kind of a nightmare, so we have offered two install solutions.
If this doesn't help, yell at me again.
Sorry for the annoyance, and thanks for giving us a shot.
Hi GreaterLegion, You require Holodexxx Home + EP1 to play EP2. We've had to build Holodexxx this way to keep the download sizes low so we can build more content into the base experience in the future
We are trying to fund the development of a AAA quality game, with zero access to capital, and no access to marketplaces like Steam. Sorry if you do not approve of our method of funding, and it is entirely your decision to support our mission or not. We are quite open, and honest about the requirements for Holodexxx EP2. Thanks for your interest.
1) This is still very buggy. I can't wait till they get it fixed. I just redownloaded, and reinstalled HomeEp1 and Ep2. The Ep2 card does not show up, but the bedroom with the girl editor is there.
2) Please add a way to turn around with the controller.
3) Please add some discretion features. I would prefer if it did not mirror on my desktop, or auto open the Holodexxx Patrion page.
All fantastic ideas. I have included them in our bug/feature list. If seems like you have an installation issue (which is not a surprise because we are using the Itch DLC system) so feel free to follow this guide to get up and running.
Sorry for the annoyance, and thanks for giving us a shot.
Okay, so I'm lost here. I reinstalled the newest version of Ep 1, then placed the Ep 2 pak file into HDX/Content/Paks. However, I can still only find a keycard for Ep 1, and my camera view is stuck at floor level.
I'm having a similar issue, I can see the Ep 2 card, but it does nothing. I have made sure that I have the latest versions of Ep 1 and Ep 2. Hope they fix whatever the problem is.
I own Holodexx Home and Ep1 and have played them. Recently purchased Episode 2. I downloaded Ep 2 from the email link, but it does not show up in my itch.io account. . . I reinstalled Home and Ep 1 to get the latest version. . . I put the Ep 2 pak in HDX/Content/Paks . . . the Ep 2 cartridge is there, and I can pick it up, but I've waved it all around the slot and nothing happens.
Hi Reiveir, we just submitted a build that should have fixed that issue. A hit box was moved out of place during our last build. If this continues past your next update, please let me know!

just noticed ep2 doesnt work with sandbox mode turned on in itch.io launcher
Heya. What is sandbox mode?
this is why episode 2 doesn't show up to home
Oh, interesting! I don't understand what "sandbox" does, and why it would effect EP2, but that is great information to know. Thanks!
since its a sandbox mode it most likely limits your executable from reaching other files outside of your installation folder. So since you have Home and episode 2 in different folders it cant access it. You should look at putting episodes as a subfolder in the home programs root.

Hi, have you installed EP1 + Home? You launch EP2 through that app.
Hi there. Yes, I have installed EP1 + Home, installed EP2, then lauched through EP1. New content shows up, but never the EP2 chip.
I've also attempted to do this manually per the instructions you posted, but the zip names don't match from EP1. I tried a bunch of different scenarios. Simply not having any luck getting any EP2 to work. :(

The videos are all streamed. You might be in an area that cannot access them, we will put in a fix to get you passed that stage
*thumbs up*
I have the same issue, any help would be appreciated
Thank you for posting the link to the installation instructions. That solved my problems!
perfect! Sorry for the confusion!
REALLY UPSET with this! The disk for part II is not able to be put inside the card slot. Already read the comments here; the workaround (putting it below the slot) doesnt work.
Sorry DasHouse, we are working on this issue now. It seems to be a backend DLC problem that's been tricky to nail down. We're on it!
Is there any ad-hoc fix? I really wanna play this now

Why does it say Ep2 but the download is EP1.5? Don’t be telling me I have to pay MORE money to get it? Not happening…
This has been a really disappointing purchase.
Hi GreaterLegion,

Well I’m not liking your decision at all. I tell you what, if this actually finishes and goes to release I’ll take another look and re-evaluate.
But charging money for a demo is quite scummy to me. Once bitten, twice shy…

Hello, I reinstalled Ep 1 and Ep 2. That did not help. Can you give instillation instructions for Ep 2?
Here ya go, wrote out an installation guide. This should help

I can access the customization, but putting in the chip for part 2 does nothing.
