{{KareKano}}
This is standard gameplay guide for Teatime's game ネトワクネトラルカレマチカノジョ (Netowaku Netoraru Karemachi Kanojo), also known as "KareKano" or "NNKK".
=====Gameplay Summary=====
KareKano is a Teatime dating sim based on the LGKL (HCT/LG) engine. This can be played alone as a single-player scenario, or you may connect online to interact with characters created by others, with the requirement that you share your own. To play, select a character for the Heroine, optionally another for your Hero, then find the qualities most compatible with her and develop them through a weekly schedule over the course of a year.

==Character Creation==
[[File:Cocoa_intro.jpg|thumb|left|96px|Cocoa, the childhood friend]][[File:Tamtam_intro.jpg|thumb|96px|Tamtam, the girl of your dreams]]The beginning of the game introduces you to Cocoa, a childhood friend who will be attending school with you, and Tam-tam, a mysterious shrine maiden who appears in your dreams. At this point you are given choices about yourself and the Heroine you will interact with.

===Player Profile===
On entering player profile mode, a dialog appears asking whether you wish you register yourself online or not; this will automatically set 'Use Network' accordingly. If registered, your player character will be listed online among players who can be invited to 5P H-sessions with other players and their Heroines.

[[File:Profile_creation.jpg|thumb|128px]]Player profile entries:

'''Gender''' - Male, Female or Futa

'''Name'''

'''Birth Date'''

'''Blood Type''' - A, B, O or AB

'''Model Type''' - Use the default Hero or import an Allpack saved in Tamu-tamu-Su~ru~

'''Playmate''' - Whether to register your Heroine online and make her available to other players

'''Self-address''' - Which Japanese personal address you refer to yourself by; any entry will be accepted

'''Comment -''' Any comments to display to other players browsing your player profile

If you chose not to register your profile or your Heroine at profile creation, your character will be regististered if you choose to invite others to 5P, and your Heroine will be registered if you choose to meet other players' Heroines.

: ['''Note:''' Your player profile will not be saved until the end of the first game day, so if the game is interrupted any time before then, you will begin from the intro at next start.]

===Import Heroine===
Your Heroine can be chosen from a list of saved characters, starting with the default Heroines, Cocoa and Saki. Other pre-made characters are provided, or one can be created in Tamu-tamu~su~ru or downloaded from Tamzone.

[[File:Voice_calls.jpg|thumb|128px|List of voice calls]]After picking a Heroine, a list of personal addresses displays what the Heroine will call your character by in the main scenario. All of them have significance and connotations in Japanese which can only be translated literally. Voice calls will not be used in general encounters or Touch and H modes, and characters without any substantial story mode may use it a total of 0-2 times.

Next, you may choose private outfit and school uniform from a list of saved outfits, or keep the default saved with the character for either. Heroines' outfits may be changed later if they become your Lover. Only Cocoa and Saki personality types will use the school uniform regularly, the others will use it once a year at most, or never.

: ['''Note:''' All characters imported or downloaded will be stored in data/NetTmp under files given a UID at character generation. The easiest way to identify them is by finding the profile .png, and all files will be given the string it is named with; allpacks (.alp), Private_ and Uniform_ wearables (.wbs). Unique items imported from .mqo (.icp) [see [[Tamtam_Guide|Tamtam Guide]] for details] will not be saved separately, but may be extracted from the wearable file in the editor.]

And finally, a picture displaying your Heroine will be used to create a Card which will list brief stats for players browsing the online list. All [[KareKano_Gameplay_Guide#Camera|camera controls]] work here, and a number of posing options are given:

'''[[File:Card_creation.jpg|thumb|Card creation]]Expression - '''lists all available facial animations

'''Animation''' - lists general animations

'''Line of Sight''' - Heroine gazes toward the camera or directly forward

'''Pose File''' - A custom pose can be chosen from saved poses

'''Outfit''' - Private outfit or school uniform. If the default outfit is neither of these, then it cannot be selected after choosing one.

'''Take Picture''' - Displays a snapshot in a preview of the Card image above. This can be retaken as many times as you like.

'''Finish''' - Saves the currently selected Card image and completes Heroine creation.

: [[File:Card_!NK1dI3drfWNbcSD4lSDpzSOYB5v7SfPzU2!!yIJjKo..png|thumb|96px|Sample card image]]['''Note:''' Only the Heroine's image is saved, as a .png transparency; if she's not registered at creation, it's possible to edit the image before it is uploaded and displayed on her Card.]

[[File:Schedule00.jpg|thumb|left|Schedule mode layout]]

==Schedule Mode==
Tamtam will first briefly explain how you may schedule your [[KareKano_Gameplay_Guide#Activities|Activities]] for the week, and later send a series of mails describing the [[KareKano_Gameplay_Guide#Smartphone|Smartphone's]] apps. [[KareKano_Gameplay_Guide#Status|Player stats]] will be displayed at the beginning of each week, and can viewed any time through the Smartphone. The Calendar gives a full monthly view, with an orange line through the current week.
====Status====
Eight traits are listed on four scales which will slide one direction or the other depending on activities chosen.<br />
*Guts <-> Naive
*Innocent <-> Wild
*Cool <-> Humorous
*Gorgeous <-> Casual
'''Energy''' - Some activities have greater or lesser Energy costs, and you will not be able to schedule activities without sufficient Energy for these.

'''Sake''' - Alcohol resistance; intended to be used when attempting to get a Heroine drunk on certain dates, but not implemented.

'''Condoms''' - Number of condoms available in the event of H. Heroines are unlikely to be willing to have sex without a condom, and even if they do, your favor with them will suffer. Enough sex without a condom can also cause pregnancy by the end of the year.

'''Player Rank''' - This appears in at the top when reaching Rank E (they're too polite to tell you when you have an F,) which occurs when you have a Love Confession accepted. After that, it will raise by a grade every 3 months, unlocking these features:
*D - Free mode unlocked, accessible from the Title Screen
*C - 3P mode unlocked, accessible in Free Mode, or SexFriends if you have at least two
*B - 5P mode unlocked, accessible in Free Mode, or with Lovers or SexFriends with enough Eros
*A - A special dream of Tamtam
The sooner you enter a Love relationship, the sooner ranks increase. On average Rank A can be reached around the end of a game year.

====Activities====
Lists actions that can be taken over the week to develop traits and other stats. All daytime actions affect one scale, increasing one trait and naturally decreasing the opposite trait. Note only Morning activities will be done at school, which can influence the [[KareKano_Gameplay_Guide#Heroine_Encounters|encounters available with certain Heroines]].

'''Morning''' -
*'''Physical Education''' - increases Guts, School activity, low Energy cost
*'''Reading''' - increases Naive, School activity
*'''Outdoor''' - increases Wild
*'''Concert''' - increases Gorgeous, School activity, low Energy cost
'''Evening - '''
*'''Stay Home''' - Increases Innocent
*'''Cinema''' - Increases Cool
*'''Arcade''' - Increases Humourous, low Energy cost
*'''Karaoke''' - Increases Casual
'''Dinner''' -
*'''Fast Food''' - cheap and relaxing, conserves Energy
*'''Bar''' - increases Sake, moderate Energy cost
*'''Combini''' - increases Condoms, high Energy cost
'''Bedtime''' -

*Sleep early to recharge Energy

*Masturbate for a low Energy cost
*Sex with current Heroine (v1.05,) high Energy cost

: [<span style="font-weight: bold;">Requires confirmation</span>''':''' Some message board comments suggest Masturbate increases sexual stamina, possibly by affecting Penis Sensitivity.]

====Overnight Options====
After the game saves at the end of the day, additional options are presented, and Schedule Mode for the next week begins after choosing any of them

'''Go to Bed''' - Simply skip to Schedule Mode

'''See other Girls''' - Visit Tamtam for a list of other player's Heroines online. You can also see the Cards with stats of your own Lover(s) and SexFriend(s.) If you download another Heroine for the first time, the Heroine you imported will be uploaded to the same list.

'''Change Private/School Outfit''' - Available only if your current Heroine is your Lover, changes their daily clothes to a new set from a list of wearable files.
===Smartphone===
The Smartphone is accessible wherever it appears during Scheduling and weekly activities, showing game date and time of day. The [[KareKano_Gameplay_Guide#Compatibility|Compatibility heart]] usually appears in the center; if the Heroine is recently loaded it will display the next time her affections change, and can always be viewed in the application.

Player Status and the Calendar shown in the Schedule Mode can be referenced here at any time, in addition to these applications:
====Mail====
Here you can receive and reply to messages sent to you, first from Tamtam, then most often from your Heroine, after dates and certain H events. Other players can also message you if they get access to your Heroine's phone.

Only one mail will be sent to you per game day and after replying to a message, it will be immediately sent and the 'Reply' button will be removed ['''Note:''' it's possible to exit before saving at the end of the day, reload and send another the same game day.]

Mail replies can be in kanji, kana or romaji, but must be entered in JIS or Shift-JIS encoding. Pressing Shift-Enter will advance text entry to the next line, but there is still a character limit. [140 chars? requires confirmation]

====Compatibility====
The Compatibility heart gives a graphic representation of the current Heroine's feelings toward your character:
*'''Like''' - the size of the Heart -- bigger heart, more Like
**Platonic love, how much she likes you. This is increased by choices made during weekly Encounters and Dates, decreased by having sex without a Condom, and can decay if game days pass with another Heroine. Like is required for any relationship to advance, especially to become a Lover, and a relationship may break up if Like drops too low.
*'''Eros''' - the rate of the heartbeat, the faster the outline fluctuates, the higher Eros
**Erotic love, how sexually attracted she is to you. This increases with Touch and H mode activities, with a bonus for the Love Hotel event. Eros is requiremed for H mode, 3P and 5P, and for any Heroine to consider you a SexFriend.
*'''Chemistry''' - the color of the heart, from Blue (lowest) through Purple to Pink (highest)
**Ideal love, how closely you fit the qualities she appreciates. Not a separate stat but an index of how close your traits are to her preferences on the trait scales. Also essential to a relationship; if Chemistry isn't high enough she will not consider H with you, much less SexFriendship, and will turn down Love Confessions.

==Gameplay==
===Heroine Encounters===
Heroines can be encountered between any of your activities on Sunday, wearing their daily clothes unless encountered after a school event, when they will be wearing uniform or P.E. bloomers. Daily encounters give you the opportunity to use two of these options; Dates may give 3.
====Talk====

On first Talk, you'll have an [[KareKano_Gameplay_Guide#Meeting_Events|Event dialog]] depending on the location with several options for response. Your choices can gain 1-3 Like and may reserve a Date later in the week.

On second Talk, you may ask her about her Preferred Type, very important to learning which traits to develop higher Chemistry with her, or Impression of you, which tells you little more than the size of the Compatibility heart. Other Talk options become available if you [[KareKano_Gameplay_Guide#Sake.2FSpy|get her drunk]].

She generally names the preference your traits are the furthest away from, so if she switches traits, the previous trait is already closer to ideal than another trait she has a preference for. If she switches to the reverse of the trait you've developed, then you're already as closely compatible as activities can get your traits, which may not be precisely on her ideal but are close enough for Love.

====Sake/Spy====
Alcohol is served at many Dates and a few daytime Events. Selecting this action will get her drunk and allow you to take advantage of her for more information. [Note: Documentation and Tamtam's tutorial mails say the success of this depends on Sake stat, but it doesn't seem to make any difference.]

First, you may Spy on her Cell Phone, showing you a list of every player who has replied to her mails, including you. You can also reply to other player's mails (but not your own.) Any mail sent to other player will have the sending player's name in the header rather than the Heroine's. [Requires Confirmation - whether replies to players' replies are sent back.]

Also, two more Talk options become available; you may ask her about Persons dated (may be number of players currently dating her, requires confirmation) or her H experience (which will always be "I'm not a virgin".)

====Seduce/Confess/Break Up====
The effectiveness of the Seduce option can give an indication of how close Like, Eros and Chemistry are to minimums for a deeper relationship with her. If "no effect", then you're too far, "some effect" is a success.

The Confess option replaces Seduce after at least two successes. When you Confess your love, if her Like is too low she may immediately reject you, if Chemistry is too low she may ask you to wait while she considers it, if both are high enough, she will accept. Waiting for a reply to a Confession can take a few weeks to over a year (requires confirmation - both were reported in v1.01-1.02,) after which she may reject or accept depending on how Chemistry has grown. Seduce/Confess options disappear while waiting for a Confession reply.

Seduce/Confess options disappear after becoming Lovers with a Heroine, but if Like drops too low, the 'Break Up' option can appear. This will end your Love relationship (with fortunately no drama.)

====Foreplay====
Enters [[KareKano_Gameplay_Guide#Touch_Mode|Touch Mode]] at a minimum of 20 Like.

====Ecchi====
Enters [[KareKano_Gameplay_Guide#H_Mode|H Mode]] at a minimum of 50 Like and Eros, unknown Chemistry minimum.

====End Conversation====
Ends the meeting without using any of the above options, and continues through scheduled events.
===Meeting Events===
*Fashionable restaurant
*Hamburger cafe
*Maid cafe
*Karaoke bar
*Game arcade
*Park
*Love hotel
*Make-out point

|}

== FAQ ==
'''First step! Instead of Japanese font i see gibberish.'''
*Make sure you have Japanese fonts installed. To do that go to Control Panel > Regional and Language Options > Languages tab. Make sure both options are checked. Insert Windows CD if asked.
*Run installer/game/application with Japanese locale. To do this use either [http://www.hongfire.com/forum/showthread.php?t=82164&p=1485430#post1485430 pApplocale] or Microsoft Applocale to run exe files.
*If you don't have Windows CD (lost or didn't get it at all) follow instructions [http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http%3A//www.jword.ru/ru/japanese-language/setup/4-winxp-no-cd.html&hl=en&langpair=ru%7Cen&tbb=1&ie=UTF-8 here]. Basically just download ISO, mount it and select files on it when windows ask for files from original CD.
*If your regional settings for non-unicode programs is set to Japanese, do not use applocale.
'''I get an error during installation '''
* This happens because installer is in a folder with Japanese name.
* To install properly copy folder with a Japanese name to the root of your HDD (e.g. to "D:\") (either extract the .iso or mount it) and change it's name to something like "KareKano". Run the installer like usual afterwards.
* You might need to change name of the .msi file too.
'''Game doesn't start at all '''
*Lower both the sound and recording quality to 44000Hz or less. (how to do this vary between systems, google it)
*''Windows Vista / 7 users only:'' The problem is probably no default sound recording device.<br />To check if that's the case go to control panel > sound devices > recording. Set any of those as default. If you can't see any devices right click on the list and enable both options or just plug in a mic. If that fail go to [http://www.niharsworld.com/2008/05/28/no-stereo-mix-recording-option-here-are-few-solutions/ THIS] page and follow instructions.
*If you don't use account with administrative privileges right click on the game launcher and select "Run as...". In new window select Administrator.
*If your regional settings for non-unicode programs is set to Japanese, do not use applocale.
*Run [http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=2DA43D38-DB71-4C1B-BC6A-9B6652CD92A3&displaylang=en DirectX web update] and install following Visual C++ packages for 32bit: [http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=32BC1BEE-A3F9-4C13-9C99-220B62A191EE&displaylang=en #1] [http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=9b2da534-3e03-4391-8a4d-074b9f2bc1bf&displaylang=en #2] or for 64bit:[http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=90548130-4468-4BBC-9673-D6ACABD5D13B&displaylang=en #1] [http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=BD2A6171-E2D6-4230-B809-9A8D7548C1B6&displaylang=en #2] systems. If you have 64bit system install 32bit packages too. After you install those packages remember to run Windows Update! WARNING: Do NOT skip this step, even if you have those installed!
*Go to Control Panel>Display>Settings>Advanced>Troubleshoot and pull the slider right to the "Full" setting.
*Go to Start>Run and type in "dxdiag". Select Yes and let it check the drivers. When it's done go to the "Sound" tab and pull the slider right to the "Full" setting.
*Update your GPU and sound card drivers. WARNING: If using Asus Xonar D2X sound card: latest drivers may not work. The 1777 driver is confirmed working.
'''Game run extremely slow (below 10 fps)'''
*Update the game and mods to latest versions.
*If your PC is just not powerful enough go to the Graphic tab and disable special effects, anti-aliasing and shadows.
*Update GPU drivers (probably wont help much).
*If using NVIDIA GPU try to force some settings in the nv control panel. WARNING: Keep in mind that setting AA very high and possibly other things can cause BSOD's during game loading!
*If using AMD GPU you might get bad fps on vista, look for a driver update.
'''Game takes ages to load'''
*Disable v-sync in the game options (also make sure your graphics device drivers control panel don't force it to "enabled").
'''Game crash when changing settings or saving game/characters'''
*Make sure you run the game with Japanese applocale.
*Check folder names for japanese names and/or garbage text. Change to english if found.
*Check for files with garbage as filename in the KareKano\Save\ folder (and subfolders).
*Check if game files aren't set as "Read only" (Right click on KareKano folder>Properties, untick "Read only" and hit Apply).
*Run the game in Windows XP compatibility mode.
*Update the game and mods to latest versions.
*If you still can't save setting edit config files manually. Go to "\KareKano \data\Config" and open needed *Config.dat file. It should be rather easy to edit them because of English labels.
'''When playing the game whole or a part of the screen is broken (artifacts)'''
*Go to options and disable Pixel Shader effects (fifth option on the left side of the options screen).
*Check your GPU with a stress tester like 3dMark to see if it isn't damaged.
*If you are overclocking try to set default clock speeds. If benchmarks run fine it probably wont help though.
*If you want to keep the PS effects on continue with "I get a DirectX error".
'''I get a DirectX (or similar) error '''
*Install DirectX from "DirectX" folder on the game DVD.
*Run [http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=2DA43D38-DB71-4C1B-BC6A-9B6652CD92A3&displaylang=en DirectX web update] and install following Visual C++ packages for 32bit: [http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=32BC1BEE-A3F9-4C13-9C99-220B62A191EE&displaylang=en #1] [http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=9b2da534-3e03-4391-8a4d-074b9f2bc1bf&displaylang=en #2] or for 64bit:[http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=90548130-4468-4BBC-9673-D6ACABD5D13B&displaylang=en #1] [http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=BD2A6171-E2D6-4230-B809-9A8D7548C1B6&displaylang=en #2] systems.

==Installing the game==
'''KareKano''' is a Japanese game that won't install or run correctly on non-Japanese versions of Windows. Here's how to install it:
# Install [http://www.hongfire.com/forum/showthread.php?t=82164&p=1485430#post1485430 pApplocale] (preferred) or Microsoft AppLocale.
# Make sure you have Japanese fonts installed. To enable them go to control panel > regional settings > languages and check both boxes. You will probably need a installation disc for your os.
# Depending on source you downloaded the game from, extract archives until you get an .iso file. You might need to update your archive extractor to do this properly. If the archive/iso/folder have a Japanese name try to change it to English if you have any trouble.
# Mount the .iso file with emulation software like Daemon Tools or MagicIso. If you cant get this to work or get errors try 3rd point from the "Alternatives" list.
# Go to the game DVD and copy folder with a Japanese name to the root of your HDD (e.g. to "D:\")
# Unmount the iso. Rename the folder you copied to "KareKano" and enter it.
# Run the .msi file. You might need to change its name to something like "KareKano".
# [[File:Location.jpg|thumb|300px|Click the top button to change install location, left to go back, middle to continue and right button to cancel installation.]]Change the install location: On the '''second page''' of the setup (see pic). IMPORTANT: '''Never''' use non-English characters (like らぶデス, use A-Z and 0-9 instead) because you will have problems running/patching the game.
# Keep clicking Next (right button) and wait for it to install.
# You can play the game by running it from the desktop using "Locale Japanese" option or you can go to [http://www.hongfire.com/forum/showthread.php/410125 KareKano Discussion thread] and grab some mods. If you are not sure what to get just download the HF Patch - it contains everything needed to play.

===Alternatives===
If you can't get above to work, here are some alternatives:
# Try running the exe file instead of .msi (use applocale).
# If you don't want to use AppLocale and want to change your regional settings, see this guide for Schoolmate (most of it applies to any Japanese game), [http://robbi-985.homeip.net:8000/sukuurumeito_translate/install/intro.html here].
# If you have 7zip you can just extract the .iso file without mounting it.
# There is no 4th alternative. Ha ha!

==General==
*'''What is this game about?'''
: There are two parts: play and make.

: Play is an online NTR centered dating sim. You can select any of other players girl and NTR her, but at the same time girls you create can meet the same fate. Players can communicate by leaving mails in a specific girls phone.

: Maker allows you to highly customize characters by changing body proportions, model face and body meshes, importing custom items and creating custom animations (all within the maker). You can then upload your character to Tamzone or import it straight into the game.
*'''What is the game performance compared to previous games?'''

: It is much better than in older games. Getting over 30FPS stable is very easy even on high settings. Loading times can be a bit long but are shorter than in previous games, especially with fixes included in HF Patch.
*'''Language of the game?'''

: As most of the Japanese games there is no official translation. You can't even buy it from outside of Japan unless someone sends it to you. That said there are fan-made translations which usually translate those games to at least playable level. To get those check 1st post of game thread.
*'''Is this game censored?'''

: Yes, Japanese law requires all merchandise to be censored so usually artists just skip those "dangerous" parts altogether and cover it in mosaic. Games officially released outside of Japan are uncensored, but thats very rare. Fans almost never uncensor 2d games but 3d games usually do get uncensored after some amount of time. Check discussion thread for progress.
*'''How do I get this game?'''
: It is hard to get a boxed game if you didn't buy things from Japan before. You can look for a dvd image on Google.
*'''Do I need to do anything special to install it?'''

: Yes, those games are meant to be released only on Japanese market and require some effort to run on non-Japanese windows. Follow those steps to successfully install Japanese games:
#On XP make sure you have Japanese fonts installed. To do that go to Control Panel > Regional and Language Options > Languages tab. Make sure both options are checked. Insert Windows CD if asked.
#Install either pApplocale or Microsoft Applocale. pApplocale is preferred, [http://www.hongfire.com/forum/showthread.php/328830 get it here].
#Run installer/game/application with Japanese locale.
#Keep in mind this game requires some special treatment to install, check "Installer throws missing/corrupted file errors" question in technical section below.
*'''Can I get a tutorial on how to install?'''

: [[KareKano_Technical_help#Installing_the_game|Here you go.]] Keep in mind you will have to extract dvd image and get rid of Japanese names for it to work!
*'''Is there an easy way to get all nessesary mods (translations, uncensor)?'''

: Yes! Look for a HF Patch in first post of the discussion thread!

==Gameplay==

*'''Are there any 3P or 5P H scenes?'''

: Yes, you need high enough player rank to unlock those modes.

*<span style="font-weight: bold;">Are other guys in 5P real people?</span>
: No, you can only select characters other people made. Only you can see what you're doing.

* '''How to get 3P? I can't see the option anywhere with my lover girl?'''

: You need two sex friends for that, lovers will not work.

*'''Is there a "real" free mode? (walking around and stuff)'''
: No and it seems to be very hard if not impossible to mod in.

* '''Is it possible to change the player character during the game?'''
: Not without modding the game files. If you're using the default hero, copy that from data/EditData/DefEdit/Hero.alp to save/Allpack, edit in the maker, copy it back over. If you're using a custom alp, figure out what it's been renamed to in NetTmp, edit your hero, rename it, copy it over. It won't be uploaded to the server but it'll update in your own game.

* '''Can you have more than one lover? If yes is it worh it?'''
: Yes, not sure if it's worth it. Maybe for Cocoa and Saki since they have a lot more H encounters available for lovers only, so it's a decent trade-off. For the rest of them you're just limiting your options.

* '''What's up with this condom thing? Do I need them?'''

: Yes, you need them. If you have ecchi with your lover without one her like rating will go down drastically (50 points or so). You can get one by selecting "go to store" option in your day plan (you get 1 for visit).

*'''How is the mail system working?'''

: Basically, any mail that is not from TamTam are stored on the server alongside the girl data. When you send a reply to girls mail it's saved on the server and anyone playing with her will see it if they make her drunk and spy her phone.

*'''How to spy her phone?'''

: You have to make her drunk on a sake date, alcohol immunity stat is useful for doing this. This date is random so you have to try a few times to get it.

*'''How is the whole lover/sexfriend thing working?'''
: You get a lover by confessing successfully. One girl can have only one lover so you will need to compete with other guys. Most of the time when trying to get a girl she will become your sexfriend because it's quite hard to make her your lover if she already has someone else.

* '''How to get a sexfriend exactly?'''

: The choice is given after sex if you have the min Like/Eros and Chemistry. The minimums for sexfriend are somewhat higher than for H to become available. See [[KareKano_Gameplay_Guide#Compatibility|Compatibility heart]] for more details.

*'''She is constantly changing her mind on what type she likes?'''

: Girls can like only a bit of a certain trait, not all the way. If you are getting those changes it means you are nearby the perfect point, just keep it in place and youre set.

==Custom characters and Character editor==

*<span style="font-weight: bold;">Online doesn't work!</span>

: Update to latest HF Patch and make sure your firewall is not blocking the game. If you are sure everything is working on your end the servers might be overloaded or your IP might be banned. Ask in the discussion thread if you can't connect while you should be able to.
*'''Not all personality options are available.'''
: You might need to have HTC or LG installed in order to get some of the features. If not, characters with those personalities (Nodoka, Tamtam, Chisato, Younger Sister, Big Sister, Cool Sister, Younger Brother, Innocent Girl, Ms Ana and Makina) can be copied into save/Allpack from previous installations or downloaded from Tamzone, and modified. To convert a full character of another type to one, each component has to be saved individually (Face/Hair/Body/Clothes,) and then loaded onto a character with the desired personality.
*'''Can I use characters created with editor from NNKK in older games?'''
: No, saves from new games will not work at all in older ones. At the moment there is no way to convert them.
*'''How to get rid of character maker's background for photoshop?'''

: For HCT's editor (v2.0,) read [http://www.hongfire.com/forum/showthread.php/379200?p=3133363#post3133363 this] post. For LG and later versions, Keypad-End toggles between background map, sky, and a configurable background color.
*'''How to change names?'''

: To type stuff in you need the input mode (IME) to be in Japanese. To do this:
#Go to Regional and language options>Languages>Details and click Add.
#Select Japanese as input language and IME standard as keyboard.
#Click Language Bar and make it show on your desktop.
#Enter the game, click the bar to change language to Japanese and type stuff in. Make sure input mode is set to alphanumeric!
: Remember you have to press enter to accept text input!
*'''How to load custom characters?'''

: There are three ways to do this:
#In the editor look for a load from tamzone option. Characters will be displayed as thumbnails, to load them after downloading go to load character menu and look for them on the list.
#Drag files you got from tamzone onto the game window and use load menu to open them.
#Move files from tamzone to the save floder in game's directory. Make sure you place it in a proper folder (full characters go to allpack folder).

==Technical==

*'''Girls glow in the dark / are too dark!'''

: This is a graphical bug, go to the graphics options and turn post processing effects off.
*'''Installer throws missing/corrupted file errors.'''

: You have to extract your game disc image. You can do this by using 7zip.

: After you extracted those files change name of a folder with Japanese signs to something english and move it to root of your drive (e.g. "d:\lovegear").
: Go into that folder and rename .msi to english as well. After renaming run it to install the game.
*'''Missing DLL errors (e.g. cv100.dll)'''
:If you are using HF Patch make sure it's installed to the same folder as the game!
:If you are using English launcher make sure it's in the same folder as the game!
:Check technical help on this wiki, look for a point that tell you to install and update stuff.
* '''Do I have to keep HTC and LG installed to get all of the features? I need more disk space!'''
: Yes, but you can merge all of those games to save a lot of space. To do so just copy LG over to the HTC folder and then copy NNKK over that. You will probably have to fix registry entries, just look for a "TEATIME" branch in the registry. There might be some bugs but NNKK is confirmed working in this setup. Doing this will save you alot of disk space at no real cost.

*'''I have some other problem.'''
