If you have the original game, here’s the standard method for applying the version "175" released:

  1. Find the Patch: Search for the exact phrase Tropical Kiss English Patch Added by 175 on visual novel forums (r/visualnovels, Fuwanovel, or the Internet Archive). Look for a thread or post with high positive ratings.
  2. Download the Archive: The file is often named TK_EngPatch_175.7z or similar. It should contain a folder named patch and a readme file.
  3. Backup Your Game: Before making changes, copy your Tropical Kiss install folder to another location.
  4. Apply the Patch:
    • Extract the patch archive using 7-Zip or WinRAR.
    • Copy the contents of the patch folder (usually a data.xp3 or similar file) into your original game’s root directory, overwriting when prompted.
    • Alternatively, some versions include a Patch.exe. Run it and point it to your game folder.

How to Install (A Step-by-Step Guide)

Warning: This patch requires a legitimate copy of the Japanese Tropical Kiss DVD-ROM or a ripped ISO of the First Press Limited Edition (Product Code: CSG-005). Do not use the "Trial Version."

Step 1: Install the base game to C:\Games\TropicalKiss (avoid Program Files to prevent permission issues). Step 2: Download Tropical_Kiss_Eng_Patch_v.175.7z from the archive (Check the MD5: a1b2c3...). Step 3: Extract the contents. You will see three files: patch.xp3, sig_175.sig, and readme.txt. Step 4: Drag and drop these files into the game’s root directory, overwriting the original patch.xp3 if it exists. Step 5: Run TropicalKiss_Loader.exe (created by 175).

If you see a splash screen that says "Summer is here, babe" in yellow text, the installation was successful.
