Questions about dating Rinko...

[parkb5]

I'm not sure if I would be better off just starting from scratch if it is the save that might be messed up. It's not like I've been playing long, Rinko just confessed to me a few days ago.

@dede: I checked out your link and it says that v0.8 is still the newest patch available and that v0.9 will be available in November.

Just an update.

I tried playing with Manaka and I got the the second level of skinship right off the bat. So I am not sure if it is the ROM. I saw the big pink heart that fills up in the second level.

I went back to Rinko and took her to dinner. There I asked her what she thinks of skinship. She came right out and told me that I suck at it. I wanted to tell her that Manaka wasn't complaining a few mintues ago, but Rinko can get violent so...

Like I've said, I get all pink hearts during skinship, and she tells me I am her perfect boyfriend, but I never get to the second level.

If it isn't the ROM that's causing this problem, then there's always the possibility that it's because of the flashcart.
Though, it sounds more like there's something that occurs in the game that we're missing, rather than a bug... =L
Are your stats high enough?

[parkb5]

Since yesterday all my stats have been at max. I have about 7 hearts total.

I have a new ROM and I am waiting for the 100% translation to be released. At that point I can just transfer my save to that ROM and continue the same save, right?

[Dede]

Yeah. Just remember to keep a backup of your current save somewhere on your computer, just in case

I think I had the same problem as you during my first week. I'm not sure what I did to trigger the second skinship though. But I do recall seeing it for the first time on the first big date.

Oh, and about that link... My bad =p
I was sure that I read somewhere in that thread that she had released the finished patch.. Oh well =\

[parkb5]

Ahhh Dede I think you've solved the mystery! Rinko didn't confess to me until Monday and our first date isn't scheduled until this Sunday.

Whereas Manaka confessed to me before Sunday, so we already had our first date.

I guess I'll see what happens after this weekend.

Still, for Rinko to say that you're horrible at the skinship even though you have all pink hearts is a bit strange, but I think that might just be the answer.

[parkb5]

She said it in conversation. I invited her out to the school corridor and I asked her what she thought about skinship and she told me that I suck at it. It might have been a scripted answer, but I thought it was funny as hell since in real life I was worried that I wasn't doing it right and that was the reason that I couldn't get to "second base" with her LOL

Super old thread I know.... xD But I figure better to post here than start a new one.

Anyways I noticed there does seem to be a big difference between a passable phase 1 (touching) and a good one. Passable being getting all pink hearts but she stops me after 4 touches saying something like "this is embarrassing." While good being 6 touches and her saying something really nice. Does this has an effect on your overall relationship?

 I have pink Rinko so any suggestions? I watched na00's video on it and tried to look up as much as I can. I didn't even notice this due to everywhere I read saying as long as you get pink hearts it's good.

Also during phase 2 (sliding) I almost always get 5 hearts, but she'll say "this is embarrassing" and shake her head a lot. Does that matter? Usually I start with her lips and it goes gold at the end of which she complains. Then I get a few slides on her forehead, followed by her hair which turns gold and again after which she complains. After that she gets into it.

I'm just really unsure what matters and what doesn't.

(Edit) She also told me I suck at skinship during a meal lol.

[na00]

Actually, you got it backwards. Less touches before starting skinship is better than more. Is like you are filling a meter (in NLP and NLP+ you actually see this meter) four touches is the best you can do. I don't remember if this affected the next part of skinship in any noticeable way, but I'm sure it doesn't affect your relationship at all.

The way she behaves during the sliding part is irrelevant. The only important thing is the color of the line you draw.

[hotbagels]

Thanks as always na00! You are surely the lifeblood of this forum. It's so weird to me since up until the last day or so I was always only getting 4 touches and her reactions compared to when I've gotten 6 seemed worse. As well as her telling me I sucked lol.

Anways I just finished my first real time date with Rinko. Boy was it a long one. 4 hours or so xD. I decided to try to go for that "1000 kiss challenge" I've read about on here. I didn't count so maybe I was off by a bit or something but I didn't rank up or notice anything after. So I was wondering if this was added after the original? For clarification is it 1000 kisses or refrains?

I went by time as it seemed the consensus was around 3 hours. I went for just over 3.5 hours straight lol so IDK. I was getting frame skips every second or so just under 3 hours and afterwards there were some noticeable graphical glitches like her feeling icon lol.



The screens are switched because I'm left handed.

[na00]

The 1000 kisses challenge are 1000 kisses in a single refrain session. I never tried it in the first game.
