Glad I could help.
After I submitted this, I encountered something else odd. This may be my error, but I was working on a story that would only occur if another character (in this case, Shihoko) wasn't already in LOVE with <player>. I coded the condition as:
But when I opened the game to test it, I got this message:
What am I doing wrong? If nothing else, my plan B would be to put the condition as having not executed the story that makes Shihoko's ending available, which I was able to successfully code.
General update on Noriko: Five stories done, including intro, and parts of a few more. Still not ready to tackle GIMP, but will try again soon. No predictions on when it will be ready, but if anyone wants to have a look at what I've got so far I'd be happy to post it. I live on feedback :-D .

Found a bug in one of the existing files. In Story 1 of game_stories_file_13, it looks like the branching to BRANCH A is being done backwards. BRANCH A should be done if 9-26 has been done, not if it hasn't. This happened on my first playing of the game a few weeks ago and couldn't figure out why I knew something I hadn't learned - now I know why!
Update on my custom character: Got three stories written and pieces of a few more. Downloaded GIMP and...well, let's just say I will try it again when I'm more awake tomorrow :-/ . Still, coming along quicker than I expected - Dozen wasn't kidding about that help file!

@Marrend: I definitely can understand that feeling. I've done something similar in my pen-and-paper gaming groups. However, I wasn't referring to you specifically, more to the RMN world in general. From what I've read, you've done a tremendous amount of work on this game, so don't worry about not doing even more :) . Besides, Emiko was worth it just for the meme she became, no?
As for Masako...I was just intending to have Noriko mention her name in one or two of her stories and have her be doing something offscreen. Hopefully we won't have any Scanners reenactments over it!
OK, one actual technical question to make this post on-topic: is there a way to change a character's attribute proclivities within the game? I was thinking of having an event that would cause my character to change her feelings about the kind of boy she likes, but couldn't find anything in the help file that indicated this was possible.

Yep, I just tried it again in both Firefox and Chrome. Firefox gives me the message "The connection was reset. The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.", while Chrome says "This webpage is not available. The connection to heartache101.3eeweb.com was interrupted."
Going to the Internet Archive, I can see the main page, the FAQ, and a couple other things. It also says it's drawing some of the pages from what it calls the "live web", such as the comments page, but I can't actually access them via their normal URLs. Playing with it a bit, it looks like I can get to the other pages if I use the "web.archive.org/liveweb/(URL)" structure, so at least I can use the site with that temporary kludge. However, there's no way for me to post comments.

@Marrend: I still can't get the 3eeweb site to load. I've tried it in both Firefox and Chrome.
Also, I've got some ideas about a possible connection between my new character (who will be named Yoshimura Noriko) and your Masako character, as I was intending for Noriko to be a member of the debate club, and since I've now started looking at some of the custom characters I see that Masako is part of it also. Perhaps I should take this to the Artistic Content thread, though...
@flowerthief: Well, I'm going to try and do my own tachie, because the character I'm starting doesn't really fit any of the existing ones. If it proves too difficult, I'll just claim 26 and be done. I know Marrend offered to create tachie for people a while back, but I don't know if that offer is still open.
One overall comment I'll make is that, for my tastes, the direction of the game and custom content has gone a little too far into the realm of the supernatural. I know it's a staple of the genre, but I wonder if the fact that those types of characters were the only ones that seemed to be completed or in development might be a factor in the decline in interest in this game.
For the record, Noriko is going to be quite grounded in reality :-D . Hopefully she won't be boring to you all on that account.

Thanks for the info, Marrend. I've been manually closing that window, but wasn't sure having it still running in the background might be a problem in some other way.
I wasn't even sure if this was the right place to post any more, as I noted there hadn't been any posts in several months, and was concerned about the status of the game. I have been trying to get the 3eeweb site to open since I first DLed the game, but all I ever get is connection reset errors (or random other errors). I was able to pull pieces of it up from the Internet Archive, but none of it was anything that wasn't already on this site.
This is such a fun game, and I especially enjoy the random elements. I'm a fairly recent entrant into the bishoujo/ren'ai/dating sim style of game, and am especially interested in games with limited graphics as I am visually impaired.
I'm looking at using the "27" tachie set for my character, but might play around with some of the graphics programs mentioned in the thread (e.g. GIMP) and see if they're usable for me. I've never been good at drawing for obvious reasons :-/ . Also, are we still needing to request IDs for our characters? If so, I'd like to use 65.
Edit: Drat, just discovered that someone else is using 27. Posts about the game are in a lot of different places, apparently. Not friendly.
Re-Edit: Is anyone using tachie set 26? If not, I'll use that one. Not ideal by any means, but it'll do.

Greetings, all.
I discovered this site and this game a couple of weeks ago, and have been enjoying it immensely. I just started working on some custom content, and have encountered an odd problem with the Character Customizer. I noticed that the program opens two separate windows, but when I exit, only the main program window closes, leaving the other one open. This didn't happen the first couple times I used the program, but has been happening ever since.
Also, as a side comment, I didn't see anywhere in the help file that you need to save your profiles as a .txt file -- I tried to save it without an extension, and it wouldn't let me reopen it, and figured out the problem (although not after deleting the work I'd already done by saving over my file - feh!).
