October 2025 Update 1

The latest update for 3.0 has updated the unity engine version and caused a break. Thankfully CasterLayoutFix resolves that problem. I've also updated a few plugins and made some really nice additions.

Updates

Bepinex
FPSCounter
ConfigurationManager
Xuat
ChoosyPreset

Added

CasterLayoutFix
DressCode
AltEditMenuFilter

Removed

EditMenuFilter (for AltEditMenuFilter)

March 2025 Update 2

As expected, there was a bunch of bugs.

Warning

CR in the latest versions seems to have some odd bugs with faces having odd marks or clipping. This is unrelated to CMI.

Changes

• Removed HalfUndressing, seems to have broken in 2.0 and likely 2.5 in recent updates.
• Removed WrapModeExtend, SS does the same thing and SS now handles CR materials.
• Updated SS, now keeps clamped wrap modes in all CR materials.
• Added an updated LookAtYourMaster to 2.5 by @sugar_gbf
• Updated i18nex for 2.5, fixes invalid duplicate personality entries in the dropdown list
• Updated AddBodyCategory 2.5
• Fixed issue with ShortMenuLoader 2.5 not being properly installed when selected sometimes

Sneaky Update 3/29/2025: Fixed LookAtYourMaster still being locked out for 2.5
Sneaky Update 2; Electric Boogalo 4/1/2025: Okay for real I really did fix LookAtYourMaster this time. Also disabled LoadSmallThumbs for 2.5, causes issues with card pics.

Known Issues:
Version 3.46.1 of COM3d2 is incompatible with CMI. A new update is forthcoming.

March 2025 Update 1

With the release of COM 3.40, many things have changed. This version has an upgraded engine, Unity 2022.3, which is a massive upgrade from the Unity 5.6 we've been struggling with since release. We used to say that there was no other reason to use 3.0+ other than the CR-Editor, but now with a newer, faster, better more stable engine, there's a much better incentive. As a result, CMI is in the process of shifting over to 3.0, and when it's deemed to be fully viable, it will become the only supported version of COM. Until then you can expect maintenance of 2.0.

Patreon

I did open a Patreon, you may see a new option to open the page at the end of the install. If you wish to support me and my development of CMI and the various plugins I develop and maintain, then it's much appreciated! It's still a little rough as I haven't had too much time to work on it, but it's functional.

Changes

A lot has changed. Mostly in the realm of opening stuff up to 3.0 and updates to many plugin you know and love to make them work in the new version. For now I'll only point out removals and additions... If you are using COM 3.0 and are updating, assume everything you're using has had some update to work in newer versions.

You should also assume that there is gonna be a few new bugs and issues. I'd appreciate any reports on this so we can address it as we go.

• Added SliderDelimiter
• Replaced NTRLight with the script
• Removed FaceType

October 2024 Update 1

Warning

Update 3.41 has updated the engine to unity 2022, this is a massive leap compared to the engine we're used to. Many plugins have broken. Do not update if you want CMI. Otherwise, remove CMI.

2.0 versions of the game (non-cre) are unaffected.

Advisory

More or less requires 2.38 now, so it's best you update your game, though this isn't being strictly enforced for now.

Changes

• Updated ShortStartLoader
• Updated MaidLoader
• Removed XTMS, broken by 2.38
• Removed ModLoader, broken by 2.38 and abandoned by Neerhom
• Added ManualMaidSort

August 2024 Update 1

Warning

2.38 (and likely 3.38) made some plugin breaking changes and you will mostly encounter issues with loading custom mods. Update at your own peril.

Changes

OldInstall names will now have a format for dates that is localized to your computer so it'll be more familiar.

Removed:

• FastFade (causes desync during special scenes, KISS bug tbh)

Updated:

• ZipBsonLoader
• Translations
• LoadEditedNPCs
• NameExtender
• i18nEx
• BepInEx
• XUAT
• ShapekeyMaster
• ExtendedErrorHandling
• CornerMessage
• ShortStartLoader

May 2024 Update 2

This includes all changes from the previous RC3

Known Issues

1. NameExtender script may limit the message size in studio mode. It's been fixed for the next version.
2. LoadEditedNPCs script may cause a stall and/or errors when playing events with certain NPC maids. Remove until fixed.
3. FastFade may cause scenes to play out incorrectly. Remove until fixed.

Changes

• Allowed UndressUtil for 2.5
• Updated i18nEx
• Updated Guest.Toolkit, attempt to stop the startup crash with SMVD.
• Updated AutoSave, AutoLoad should be safe.
• Added a whole bunch of Sugoi Machine translations for scripts, UI, etc, by @Pain-Brioche and @UnkownGamer

May 2024 2.6 RC3

Notice

This is an RC, a pre-release, a beta. It's not considered tried and true, but I've yet to find an issue. However, 2.6 features massive changes to the way files are handled, so I'd be remiss if I didn't warn you that there's a distant chance of an unforeseen bug. Enjoy!

Changes

2.6 was an extensive upgrade, and this should even allow Linux users to use CMI with wine in a normal fashion. Apart from that, the component select bug breaking 2.5 is fixed, a few more bugs are fixed, and CMI's overall file size was even reduced!

Hopefully this will be the definitive update for CMI, I think it's reached a very good state now.

• Removed update downloader.
• Translated the remaining code in the C# dll to inno script (using two(2) win apis invoke), CMI no longer uses any extra dll as a result, which means Linux users should no longer have an issue and it should be more stable and performant.
• Refactored a bunch of code that relied on CMD calls. Now using win api's file operation stuff to move and copy files around (you may see a familiar window pop up during installs) and some native inno functions for other stuff.
• Minor code fixes, removal of leftovers, and cleaning and stability stuff.
• Fixed an issue where Eng CR registry fixing did nothing and Jap CR Registry fixing created (harmless) junk in the registry.
• Fixed annoying component install bug that could lead to components that should be off being on and locked.
• Now includes a proper uninstaller. No longer do you uninstall through the installer.
• Compressed the included images and textures to reduce the file size of CMI, losslessly (it means the images look exactly the same).
• Removed some old UI translation textures that seemed to do absolutely nothing.
• Republished the DLC checker using some new net 8.0 features to reduce it's file size.
• No longer are you able to get nothing. You always get the core essentials which are bepinex and some other stuff like UnityInjectorLoader.
• Reorganized component selection as a result of changes to component options.
• Edits to the readme to bring it up to date.
• Some other stuff I probably forgor 💀
• Updated: SSL, EEH, EditLoadBodyFix, MemoriesModeUnlock
• Added: LimitBreak2

March 2024 Update 1

This is based on RC3 & RC4
This means it contains a bunch of unlisted changes if you're coming from the latest release (AKA, not a pre-release).

Known Issues

• Installs components that should be disabled on 2.5. Inno Setup is being rebellious, and I cannot fix it. Avoid using CMI for 2.5/3.0/CR-Edit

February 2024 Update 1

Now requires 2.34+
