Installation

Installation

1. BepInEx & API

1. Install BepInEx 5 for your game if not already present.
2. Ensure HS2API / KKSAPI / KKAPI is in the BepInEx/plugins/ folder.
3. Launch the game once so BepInEx creates its folder structure.

2. Download modules

Latest builds are on the GitHub Releases page. Versions and direct URLs are also in versions.json.

Recommended: Individual modules (split)

Copy only the DLLs you need, for example:

BepInEx/plugins/HS2-Sandbox/
  HS2Sandbox.PoseBrowser.dll
  HS2Sandbox.AnimBrowser.dll

Subfolders are fine — BepInEx loads recursively. Toolbar icons ship inside each DLL — nothing extra to copy.

3. Game-specific DLL names

Game	Pose Browser	Anim Browser
HS2	HS2Sandbox.PoseBrowser.dll	HS2Sandbox.AnimBrowser.dll
KKS	KKSSandbox.PoseBrowser.dll	KKSSandbox.AnimBrowser.dll
KK	KKSandbox.PoseBrowser.dll	KKSandbox.AnimBrowser.dll

Never use the HS2 DLL in KKS/KK (or vice versa).

4. First launch

1. Start Studio (StudioNEOV2.exe or CharaStudio.exe).
2. Use the left toolbar — click icons for installed modules.
3. If something fails, check BepInEx/LogOutput.log.
