This is normal. Chisato is the neutral path so u hv a high chance of getting her route. Cause there is no indicator I didnt even know I was on her route until much, much later.

If only There's hazuki sensei's route..

I had the DVD problem and I just solved it. I dont know if the local emulator helps or not, but do that. You will also need this code : Q6ZL-HRH8-PZJF-Q2RE. Get ready to copy and paste this. Move your translated folder into ur C:\ directory, and then open start.exe. Click yes when it tells u to insert dvd, and it will bring u to this console like screen. paste the code above, and then you can make a shortcut of start.exe to desktop. hf

I needed to get the emulator for this to work. Thank you for the code guys!

Celeb01 Jan 2016Reply

Needed emulator even after translation was done.

CSFault31 Dec 2015Reply

I've finally figured out the proper way to install. Firstly you extract the parts. After that click start.exe to start it. There's a white box with Japanese words all over. Copy Q6ZL-HRH8-PZJF-Q2RE and paste it there. Click to first clickable button and it'll start. Finish the opening song and wait for the time you can save. Then after you saved, start the translation patch and save it in the same folder as your start.exe. Everything should be okay after that.

The full screen is the same size at the windowed one is that normal or a bug of the game ?

Noobman02 Jan 2016Reply

Kay I've managed to have the installation working myself and here are some simplified steps that worked for me on windows 10:

1. Extract rar file into C:/Program Files (86x)
2. Run the start.exe application BEFORE you install the English patch
3. Click yes when it asks you about DVD
4. Paste the code Q6ZL-HRH8-PZJF-Q2RE, then click the highlighted button
5. close the game
6. Run the english patch
7. Done, just don't use that start application everytime you want to launch the VN

This is all done assuming you already have Japanese locale set

Noobman02 Jan 2016Reply

FOr nstep 7, i meant to USE that start application, my bad...

I can't get the start.exe file working on my windows 10. I was wondering if you know how to deal with this.

neko-nyannn03 Jan 2016Reply

Nasir300003 Jan 2016Reply

Can someone help me because I've beat Chisato route and have no h scenes. Don't know what happened

Nasir300003 Jan 2016Reply

Never mind I fixed it. In the backup file

DwWarrior03 Jan 2016Reply

I just realised...To whoever has the problem with the black screen..(We are not many)
That before I installed the patch.
It shows the same thing.
The Black window and the text.
Am I doing something wrong?
I installed the patch, I changed the location to japan, I downloaded the amulator.
What am I supposed to do?

Also I can't the files on C:/Program Files (86x)

Poop08 Jan 2016Reply

Unfortunately for me, everytime I clcik start nothing happens.
This is on Windows 10 and I tried all the stuff you guys suggested.
Helpu??

dude09 Jan 2016Reply

in win 10, search for 'region' in control panel, 'administrative' tab, change system locale settings to Japanese then run, emulators don't work somehow

Hansolo09 Jan 2016Reply

Using Windows 10, too. I already set the region to Japanese, still nothing happened, once I try to start "start.exe".

"恋と選挙とチョコレート.exe" gives me an error to install Shockwave player, what I did anyway.

Bananaman17 Jan 2016Reply

Same deal for me.

I've given up I haven't found anything that works for me. I simply can't run the start.exe no matter which order I install it or folder I put it in. Neither my antivirus or applocale seem to have anything to do with it.

Prospanker20 Jan 2016Reply

I'm using Windows 10 and to get this game to work first you should download the locale emulator (google it and for me I use Xupefei's emulator). Whenever you want to play the game, go to the Region and Language settings and at the Languages section, set the Japanese Language as default(download the language pack from windows first of course). There is no need to sign off for the changes to take effect. After that, open start.exe with emulator. Once you've done playing, set the original language back to default.

Cipher11 Jan 2016Reply

is it supposed to have chisatos nipples censored?

LuvVisualNovels15 Jan 2016Reply

Yeah I can't get this to work. People keep saying to paste a code in somewhere but I never receive a prompt to input such a code -- I just get the missing DVD error, and clicking Yes just brings it up again ad infinitum.

Do I need another program or something to be able to input that code? I got Locale Emulator just in case but still no dice.

LuvVisualNovels15 Jan 2016Reply

I think the "start.exe" crack file is faulty or something. After about an hour of messing with it I finally got the popup to input the code and the game actually started -- unfortunately I didn't have the English patch loaded at the time, and when I restarted after installing the patch it kept giving me the NoDVD error again. I just kept trying and eventually the game launched again.

I have no idea how to fix it so it'll run every time though...

Mayushii21 Jan 2016Reply

In regards to the Chisato censor in the bath.
/V/ answered it. I'll just put it here.
"the TL group fucked up and included the censored version of that in the normal patch."

"is that the only error in regards to censorship?"

"Yeah thats the only one. It happened for me and I still got H-scenes and stuff. It's not really a big deal."

Excalibur21 Jan 2016Reply

he notice me too the DVD problem and i'm download completly, the game's parts and i'm deceived for that...

RarGuy07 Feb 2016Reply

I can't unzip the file. Using 7zip and get the following message:

1 Data error: Koichoco/KSC-VOICE.cct

RarGuy07 Feb 2016Reply

Ok so finally got past the previous error. Now when I try to run the game it says the following:

KSC-VOICE.cct is not a Director File

Shirou10 Feb 2016Reply

My game runs fine except I have no voices... How do I fix this?

MagusFyre11 Feb 2016Reply

Just a newbie question... Is there a way to expand the game window? I dont want it to run full screen but the default game running in a 800x600 window just feels too small.

loklokloklo21 Feb 2016Reply

how to run in case of fuckup

1. Extract rar file anywear desktop recommended
2. Run the start.exe application BEFORE!! you install the English patch
3. Click yes when it asks you about DVD
4. Paste the code Q6ZL-HRH8-PZJF-Q2RE, then click the highlighted button
5. close the game
6. Run the english patch and when it finishes dont run it just finish it
7. and Done, just go and use that start application everytime you want to launch the VN not the icon one with the japanese leters
next to it if you do you will have to start from the beginig and delete the folder

also This is all done assuming you already have Japanese locale set

Kevin24 Feb 2016Reply

alllrighty ive tried literally everything ive read every single post on here. I cannot get past step 3. ive sat there and spammed the yes button for like a solid minute and nothing happened. also the file is "start" not start.exe does that matter at all?

Xishalet03 Mar 2016Reply

HOLY JESUS I GOT THIS TO FINALLY WORK. Thank you Windows 10.

Zack07 Mar 2016Reply

Just another person to say that when I try to start this game I get the "Please insert game disc into you DVD drive". I have JP Locale, Extracted in x86, I've tried both the "start" and "恋と選挙とチョコレート" applications both normally and in Run as Admin. Tried it with and without KSC-License and makes no difference. I just never get to the prompt where I need to paste the code, just an endless loop of clicking yes.

I'm pretty sure people can get around this issue, I just can't seem to. Any ideas?

Kurusu09 Mar 2016Reply

Hello guys, I've decided to try and help some of the people that are having problems with running Koichoco just as I did before I dug up solution.
Here is what I did to get it finnaly to work:

Go to control panel > Region and language > Admin > Unicode settings > Set it to japanese > Restart computer

After this I was finnaly able to make it work . Hope it helps you as well and have fun reading ;)

Kurusu09 Mar 2016Reply

Of course, run it with start.exe not the other one.

LoliDisruptor26 Mar 2016Reply

RinRin29 Mar 2016Reply

Hi!

I was moved.... this game is good! I want to have their bgm, but I could not find it in Google. Does anyone know how to get their bgm?

Tropic30 Mar 2016Reply

Hello

I managed to get it working after renaming start.exe by koichoco.exe. Now my new problem is the infamous black screen after the intro... If someone can upload a save right after the video, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Tropic31 Mar 2016Reply

Solved. I rename the opening file after starting the game and no black screen occur.

So for Windows 10 users who have problems for playing, here are the steps i follow:
1) Put the system in Japanese locale when restart
2) Extract the game in folder Program Files (x86)/Sprite/Koichoco
3) Rename start.exe by Koichoco.exe
4) Remove KSC-LICENSE.dat in the Config folder. Launch Koichoco.exe and write the code Q6ZL-HRH8-PZJF-Q2RE for the dvd
5) Install the english patch.
6) Now the game start properly in my case. If you see the black screen after the opening, follow my tip above.

Hope it helps.

DesperateAnimeGamer31 May 2016Reply

Having trouble getting Koi to Senkyo to Chocolate to install

- Running on Windows 10 x64bit
- Set [Region and Language] to local Japan, added Japanese language, then Restarted computer
- Extracted the 17 .rar files using 7-Zip
- Tried running start.exe as Administrator and nothing happened
- Tried running start.exe in compatibility mode as Admin and nothing happened
- Tried renaming start.exe to Koichoco.exe [as suggested] and repeated above two steps, nothing happened

Not sure what to do at this point, any help appreciated

What proceeds in this situation?

DesperateAnimeGamer10 Jun 2016Reply

Windows 10 64bit | start.exe does nothing, possible solution

Windows 10 64bit has a few places to "Set to local Japan" I had already done 1 and 2 but 3 had me stumped for a while and when I made that change a number of games started working for me

[1]
* Hit [Start] and start typing "Region & Language Settings", select that when it pops up and make sure your under [Region & Language] on the side bar
* Under [Country or region] there is a drop down, select [Japan]
* Restart computer
[2]
* Hit [Start] and start typing "Region & Language Settings", select that when it pops up and make sure your under [Region & Language] on the side bar
* Under Languages click the grey [+] button next to "Add a language", scroll until you see "Japanese" and install
* Restart computer
[3]
* Hit [Start] and start typing "Run" to open the Run command prompt and paste "Control international" without the quotes and press Enter
* Go to [Administrative] Tab and click on [Change system locale...], from the dropdown select [Japanese (Japan)], hit [OK]
* Restart computer
