The setup will ask for your THUG 2 folder, then download the release, and ask to import saves and create desktop shortcuts. We recommend letting it do both. New releases will automatically download and update when you launch the game.
For THUG Pro, we recommend a fresh full install of THUG 2, and making a new create a skater file. However, if you have issues loading your cas file, send us a bug report with the file attached. If you have issues loading the game let us know, but the first thing we will ask is if you have tried a fresh installation of THUG 2 to use THUG Pro with.
THUG Pro installs into a new location separate from THUG 2, to support updating:

To report, send us an email at thugprocontact@gmail.com with “bug report” in the subject of the email. Please try your best to come up with clear instructions for reproducing the bug, otherwise we won’t be able to act upon it easily. If it is a bug in a multiplayer game mode or otherwise only happening with multiple players, please coordinate with other beta users to come up with reproduction instructions. If it is a graphical bug or if a screenshot would help communicate the problem, attach them in the email. Also inform us if you have any antivirus warnings.
Please refrain from sending us bug reports of items that are in the Known Issues list below.
Feature requests / suggestions should have “feature request” or “suggestion” in the subject. Please do not combine feature requests and bug reports in the same emails. New decks, griptapes, sprays, and stickers will likely not be added as we intend to support players using their own without them being in the mod itself in the future. If you are requesting THPS levels we haven’t already added, please order your list of levels by importance to you.
