Project Cuga 0.1.4 — Android FUC

Early release: these Windows and Android updates have not been extensively tested. Back up your saves before updating.

Changes

• Corrected FUC runtime hooks that prevented features such as hold-to-gather from working.
• Added HD texture pack compatibility, including PNG and Basis KTX2 textures, Zstandard compression, legacy quick hashes and UTF-8 BOM texture configuration files.
• Fixed frame interpolation camera estimation that could make scenery and characters jump or flicker at high frame rates, including while sprinting in the village or farm.

Requires your own compatible MHP2G ULJM05500/FUComplete game files and FUCDAT support files. Game files and texture packs are not included. These downloads use the FUC profile; they do not update the separate experimental US build. US/EU executables are not supported by these packages.

Loadouts are not yet fully functional. Check your item pouch manually and keep save backups.

Android installation

Requires Android 10 or newer, an ARM64 device and Vulkan 1.1 support.

1. Download the APK from Assets below and allow installation when Android prompts.
2. For an existing compatible Cuga installation, install as an update. Do not uninstall first: uninstalling can remove app data. Back up or export saves before updating.
3. Launch Project Cuga and follow setup using your own compatible game files and required FUCDAT support files.

For HD textures, unzip the pack first. Choose Video → Import texture pack, select the folder containing textures.ini through Android's folder picker, then choose Copy into Project Cuga's data folder. For the base Kaneda pack, select MAIN. Keep several GB of free space available during import. A missing image falls back to the original game texture.

Notes

Use QOL → Quests for Key Quest Stars and the capture skull; restart after changing quest stars to refresh cached lists. Play on one device at a time when using cloud saves and let your provider finish syncing before switching.
