[Tutorial] Adding ACS, Hair, and Clothes to Monika After Story v0.9.5 (Outdated so probably wont expand after all)

[LordBaaa]

Okay so you want to add a ACS to the game. Well lets start with a basic single pose ACS.

• You should backup your persistent file before doing this. Also templates will be used for ease use.

See the Advanced Section(Comming Soon) for full explanation of each bit but for now let just get something in the game.

• Firstly you want to take this template code and paste it into notepad. I recommend you use notepad++.
• Also you should unzip unren-dev.rpy and put in your game folder. This will enable the console and allow you test your sprites more easily. (You can remove unren when your done.)
  (edit: removing this zip for now until we decide just how readily available we want the console for the masses - @jmwall24)

(I will add a version of how to do this with labels later but for now I am gonna show you how ot use console commands)

(Templates.zip is comming soon couldn't finish all of this before I had to go out of town)
(All templates should work with no problems but if there problems let me know. Also I will DOUBLE Check for the billionth time when I come back)

Preparing Images (Read me first)

Start by downloading the After Story Base psd's from here. We will be using these a lot.
We will be using this piano clip art I found as base for the Basic ACS, Hairclip and Plushie

.
TheresaKnott-piano.zip

Import your image, resize, position it and save the layer by itself for day time mode and apply the twilight group for night time.

Next we resize the images to 1280 by 850 In another program like GIMP or Paint.Net

• This is IMPORTANT to do after the you apply the night time settings and before you add it to the game. If you don't you may not see it in game.
• See Preparing Images for ACS for examples of how to do this

Preparing Images for ACS

Contents

Images for ACS start with the header acs- followed by spritename followed by -pose ended by -n for night time mode. or acs-<spritename>-n.png. The -n is for switching between day and night.

Basic ACS (Single Pose ACS)

An example of this naming style in action is the Basic ACS section where we will be naming out sprites acs-piano-0.png andacs-piano-0.png which is the night time version.

• the name piano could be replaced with any name for your sprite.

Hairclip/Ribbon (Two Pose ACS)

An example of this naming style in action is in the hairclip section where we would name our files 'acs-piano-hairclip-0.png' and 'acs-piano-hairclip-5.png' for daytime versions and 'acs-piano-hairclip-0-n.png' and 'acs-piano-hairclip-5-n.png' as night version.

• 0 is for upright and 5 is for leaning in this example.
• Change acs-piano-hairclip-0.png to acs-piano-ribbon-0.png or something like that if you are doing a ribbon.

Multipose ACS T(Three or more poses, in this case all six)

This is an example from Multipose ACS that I did. There are six poses and a day/night version for each of them.

1. steepling
2. crossed
3. restleftpointright
4. pointright
5. leaning
6. down

We now need to move out ACS to the MAS ACS file location game\mod_assets\monika\a folder

Preparing Images for Hair

Contents

Hair is a bit different. So the name are for upright are hair-<hairstylename>-front.png and hair-<hairstylename>-back.png and for leaning its hair-leaning-def-<hairstylename>-front.png andhair-leaning-def-<hairstylename>-back.png. And of course with the -n for nightime.
Here is an example

Preparing Images for clothes

Contents

The naming style for clothes is a bit different then ACS. Firstly the path for clothes is mod_assest\monik\c. For clothes in the template img_sit you specify a folder name not a file name! This is very important. The rest of naming can pretty much be exactly the same.

Don't worry about how they are named. My advise is just make a copy of the def clothing folder and overwrite images as you go that way you can use the already established naming convention.
Also for thumbs you will need to name the file clothes-<sprites>.png

Preparing thumbs

Contents

Thumbnails are stored in mod_assests\thumbs folder.

• thumbs start with prefix for the type its acs-, clothes-, or hair-
  then your name and finally .png
• Make your image is 180 by 180
• Example name is acs-piano-hairclip.png
• Copy it to your mod_assests\thumbs folder

Like this

Here is an example of making a ribbon Thumbnail

The easiest way to make a ribbon thumb is to take an existing ribbon thumbnail and your new ribbon. Put the new ribbon over the thumbnail. Basically just open both up and cut the part of the new ribbon and paste it in a new layer over the thumbnail being careful not to expand the canvas size. Then just use your arrow keys to line up pixel to pixel and hide the layers to check your work against the original. Like this. (Using paint.net btw)

Coding

Basic ACS (For demonstration purposes only. Don't use otherwise)

Contents

Read the Preparing Images for ACS before following this section. This is a really simple template just to get something in game. This is not really good for anything but this example but I just want you to get your feet wet.

REALLY simply ACS Code Template

{
    "type": 0,
    "name": "id-of-sprite",
    "img_sit": "base_filename_without_extension",
    "pose_map": {
        "default": "0",
        "use_reg_for_l": true
    },
    "dryrun": false,
    "rec_layer": 2
}

1. Copy this template into a notepad, I recommend using notpad++ and setting the language to json.

• First need give it a name which is what the game. For this we will say piano

• Next img_sit is the base name of our images which will again be piano.

My code example

2. Now we want to run MAS and close it. Then open your log\spj.txt
   and it should look like this.

3. OK so if your file looks like this we can proceed its time have some fun!

• Firstly we need to remove the "dryrun": false, string from our json. Then relaunch the game and press Shift-O to open the console.
• The ACS of the game are located in the location store.mas_sprites.ACS_MAP. Note that there is also HAIR_MAP and CLOTH_MAP for well you can guess what they are. For this we will be using ACS_MAP.
• Just to a double check of the name and that game sees it as a MASAccessory we are gonna dostore.mas_sprites.ACS_MAP["name_of_your_sprite"]) or this case piano.
  After doing monika_chr.wear_acs(store.mas_sprites.ACS_MAP["piano"]) your should see

Next we do monika_chr.wear_acs(mas_sprites.ACS_MAP["piano"]) and we should get this.
See it is on her desk!

4. You can get rid of this running monika_chr.remove_acs(store.mas_sprites.ACS_MAP["piano"]).

Okay... takes long breath so we put a ACS in the game! Yay! You can read the other sections for making something actually useful.

Filling Out Templates (Read me before reading below sections)

Contents

In the following sections you will be filling out templates. Here are the important section you will need to fill out.

Before your proceed you must know. Only gift her the sprite AFTER after you remove the dryrun line! (read entry 8 of this section). If gift her something before hand and it it is not in the game she wont be able to see it. Plus if she reacts to something that doesn't work then when you add it properly she won't react at all. See Advanced Section(Coming Soon) to fix the gifted to soon problem.

Once you fill out the below section you are gonna save whatever template as a .json in the game\mod_assests\monika\j folder. Look at templates.zip for examples

1. name, this is the name that the game will see.

2. img_sit this is the name of the image/or images you will be using
   -for acs this is the file name without any prefixies or suffixes without any prefixes see Preparing Images for ACS for reference.

   • For clothes you specify a folder name not a file name! see Preparing Images for Clothes for reference.

3. display_name, this is the name that will appear in selectors like for ribbons and hairclip

4. thumb this is the name of your thumbnail without the prefix. See Preparing Thumbnails for more info

5. hover_dlg This is what will be said when your mouse is over the ACS in a selector menu

6. select_dlg This is what is said when you select a ACS to be worn.

   • Note for both of these you can have multiple lines which are there own reactions. They as far as I know choosen by random. Here is some example code.
   • Make sure the last line does NOT have a comma. as you can see select_dlg has no comma and hover_dlg on the "I love this one." line has no comma but the one before it does.

        "hover_dlg": [
            "This is a cute hairpin",
           " I love this one."
        ],
        "select_dlg": [
            "Alright"
        ]

7. giftname this is the name of the gift file without the .gift extention you will put in your characters folder

8.- 'dryrun this tells the game to not offically add it but to just test to make sure it works. Once you check your 'log/spj.txt you can remove this entire string and give her a gift. Say you had

    "giftname": "gift_filename_without_extension",
    "dryrun": false,
    "rec_layer": 5,

it would end up like this

    "giftname": "gift_filename_without_extension",
    "rec_layer": 5,

Giving Gifts

Contents

Before your proceed you must know. Only gift her the sprite AFTER after you remove the dryrun line! from the template (read Filling Out Templatesf for more details). If gift her something before hand and it it is not in the game she wont be able to see it. Plus if she reacts to something that doesn't work then when you add it properly she won't react at all. See Advanced Section(Coming Soon) to fix the gifted to soon problem.

To make a gift make a new text document and rename it to yourgiftname.gift and put it in your characters folder

• If she doesn't see it immediately this is normal. Try saying I love you or just Repeat a conversation, if all else fails reload your game. If it still doesn't work consult the troubleshoot section (comming soon).

Hairclip

Contents

Read the Preparing Images for ACS and Filling Out Templates Sections before proceeding

Hairclip ACS Template

{
    "type": 0,
    "name": "id-of-sprite",
    "img_sit": "base_filename_without_extension",
    "pose_map": {
        "default": "0",
        "l_default": "5"
    },
    "stay_on_start": true,
    "ex_props": {
        "left-hair-strand-eye-level": true
    },
    "select_info": {
        "display_name": "User Friendly Name",
        "thumb": "thumbnail_filename_without_extension",
        "group": "left-hair-clip",
        "visible_when_locked": false,
        "hover_dlg": [
            "list of dialogue to show when hovered"
        ],
        "select_dlg": [
            "list of dialogue to show when selected"
        ]
    },
    "giftname": "gift_filename_without_extension",
    "dryrun": false,
    "rec_layer": 5,
    "priority": 10,
    "acs_type": "left-hair-clip",
    "mux_type": [
        "left-hair-clip"
    ]
}

At this point your game should look like this.

Once you gift he the hairclip it should show up in the hairclip selector.

She saw it.

Ribbon

Contents

Read the Preparing Images for ACS and Filling Out Templates Sections before proceeding

Ribbon Template

{
    "type": 0,
    "name": "id-of-sprite",
    "img_sit": "base_filename_without_extension",
    "pose_map": {
        "default": "0",
        "l_default": "5"
    },
    "stay_on_start": true,
    "ex_props": {
        "propname": "propvalue"
    },
    "select_info": {
        "display_name": "User Friendly Name",
        "thumb": "thumbnail_filename_without_extension",
        "group": "ribbon",
        "visible_when_locked": false,
        "hover_dlg": [
            "list of dialogue to show when hovered"
        ],
        "select_dlg": [
            "list of dialogue to show when selected"
        ]
    },
    "giftname": "gift_filename_without_extension",
    "dryrun": false,
    "rec_layer": 3,
    "priority": 10,
    "acs_type": "ribbon",
    "mux_type": [
        "ribbon"
    ]
}

Once you gift her the ribbon it should show up in the ribbon selector.

Add/Replace Plushie

Contents

Okay so we already basically made a plushie in Basic ACS Section. Lets actually make something out of it. Start by grabbing this plushie template for json code. Fill out the template except for mux_type. What we will do with that is dependent on the next bit.

Json Plushie Template Code

{
    "type": 0,
    "name": "id-of-sprite",
    "img_sit": "base_filename_without_extension",
    "pose_map": {
        "default": "0",
        "use_reg_for_l": true
    },
    "stay_on_start": false,
    "giftname": "gift_filename_without_extension",
    "dryrun": false,
    "rec_layer": 2,
    "priority": 10,
    "acs_type": "plush_<your_plush_name\abbreviation>",
    "mux_type": [
        "plush_mid", "plush_q"
    ]
}

Replace quetzal plushie(Simple)

If you just want to replace the quetzal plushie with your own and don't want any others, use this template.

Replacing Plushie Template Rpy Override Code Simple

init 10 python:
    def mas_startupPlushieLogic(chance=4):
        """
        Runs a simple random check for the quetzal plushie.

        IN:
            chance - value that determines the chance of that
                determines if the plushie will appear
                Defualts to 4
        """
        # do we even have plushe enabled?
        if not persistent._mas_acs_enable_quetzalplushie or mas_isF14():
            # run the plushie exit PP in case plushie is no longer enabled
            mas_acs_quetzalplushie.exit(monika_chr)
            return


        if renpy.random.randint(1,chance) == 1:
         monika_chr.wear_acs_pst(store.mas_sprites.ACS_MAP["your-plushie-name-here"])

        else:
            # run the plushie exit PP if plushie is not selected
            mas_acs_quetzalplushie.exit(monika_chr)

        return

1. Set your json acs_type as plush_mid (Look at Advanced explanations for why)
2. Take the template code and replace the your-plushie-name-here on line 10 with your plushie name from you json file. Now save this file as plushie_
   replace.rpy and copy it into you game folder. Like this.

3. Load the game and when the plushie script run you should see your plushie.

• If you want to check it is working open your console and type mas_startupPlushieLogic(1). This will guarantee that if the code is working the plushie will spawn

Adding new Plushies (Advanced)

We are gonna add a plushie.

1. Set your json acs_type to something unique for I set it to plush_p for piano.
2. Copy the two template scripts

Adding More Plushie Template

init 10 python:
    def mas_startupPlushieLogic(chance=4):
        """
        Runs a simple random check for the quetzal plushie.

        IN:
            chance - value that determines the chance of that
                determines if the plushie will appear
                Defualts to 4
        """
        # how many pluhies are there?
        number_of_total_plushies = 2
        # do we even have plushe enabled?
        if not persistent._mas_acs_enable_quetzalplushie or mas_isF14():
            # run the plushie exit PP in case plushie is no longer enabled
            mas_acs_quetzalplushie.exit(monika_chr)
            return


        if renpy.random.randint(1,chance) == 1:
            if persistent._mas_d25_deco_active:
                #if in d25 mode, it's seasonal, and also norm+
                monika_chr.wear_acs_pst(mas_acs_quetzalplushie_santahat)

            #default quetal plush

            if renpy.random.randint(1,number_of_total_plushies) == 1:
                monika_chr.wear_acs_pst(mas_acs_quetzalplushie)

            if renpy.random.randint(1,number_of_total_plushies) == 2:
                monika_chr.wear_acs_pst(store.mas_sprites.ACS_MAP["your-plushie-name"])
				
           # Plushie template add more ifs as needed, just remove #'s
           # if renpy.random.randint(1,number_of_total_plushies) == 3:
           #     monika_chr.wear_acs_pst(store.mas_sprites.ACS_MAP["your-plushie-name"])
        else:
            # run the plushie exit PP if plushie is not selected
            mas_acs_quetzalplushie.exit(monika_chr)

        return

Quetzalplushie mux_type overrider

init 10 python:


  ### QUETZAL PLUSHIE
    ## quetzalplushie
    # Quetzal plushie that sits on Monika's desk
    # thanks aldo
    ## This line deletes the existing ACS so it can be overide
    del store.mas_sprites.ACS_MAP["quetzalplushie"]
    mas_acs_quetzalplushie = MASAccessory(
        "quetzalplushie",
        "quetzalplushie",
        MASPoseMap(
            default="0",
            use_reg_for_l=True
        ),
        stay_on_start=False,
        acs_type="plush_q",

        # NOTE: this shouldn't be muxed with heart choc as heart choc 
        #   needs to add mid version of this
        # added plush_p so it reacts to piano properly
        mux_type=["plush_mid", "<your-plush-acs-type>"],
        entry_pp=store.mas_sprites._acs_quetzalplushie_entry,
        exit_pp=store.mas_sprites._acs_quetzalplushie_exit
    )
    store.mas_sprites.init_acs(mas_acs_quetzalplushie)

3. replace <your-plush-acs-type>in Quetzalplushie mux_type overrider with your json acs_type name and save it in your game folder.
4. Take Adding More Plushie Template and replace your-plushie-name with your plush name.
5. number_of_total_plushies is by defualt set to two but set it to as many plushies as you have.
   • You can also expand the number of plushies with the commented out code
6. Save as Add_plushie.rpy and copy to game like before.
7. Go into the game and run mas_startupPlushieLogic(1) serveral times. You should see one plushie appear and then after a few time be replaced by your other plushie. This means it it working.
8. Now if your load into the game normally you will eventually see your plushie load up in game. (its all chance based for how often it will spawn but we know it exists

Multi Posed ACS

Contents

Read the Preparing Images for ACS and Filling Out Templates Sections before proceeding.
The best in game example of this I can think of is the Hairties-Braclet
It has a different image for each pose. See zz_spriteobjects.rpy for more details.

However we are gonna do something a bit simplier by making a changing color ribbon!
(Note again this an example not an art tutorial)

I started by making 6 differently colored bows to kinda represent the rainbow, maybe someone could make better colors, did this kinda quick and dirty. Again day and night time versions and appropriate naming. See Preparing images for ACS for more info.

Okay onto coding

For this we can basically use the wiki page template, however we will have to remove this comma as it will throw this error if we don't. So we are left with this template.

}

Note Just like Multi Posed ACS fi you use the defualt template from the wiki you get a comma error. Also the default lean in the wiki is lean|def which doesn't work. It says invalid pose. You need to replace it with def|def. Finally I added the down hairstyle to the hair map in the template

Prog Point

Contents

Prog Points are bits of code that can be run when the a ACS, Hair, or Clothes are worn.
Here are the lablels

• ACS:
  • _acs_name_entry
  • _acs_name_exit
• HAIR:
  • _hair_name_entry
  • _hair_name_exit
• CLOTHES:
  • _clothes_name_entry
  • _clothes_name_exit

an example would be this

init -2 python in mas_sprites:
    def _clothes_name_entry(_moni_chr, **kwargs):
	  #Gets previous hairclip and ribbon

	  #Checks if monika had a ribbon on before and if so puts it back on
      if prev_ribbon is not None:
       monika_chr.wear_acs(prev_ribbon)

This code would tell what ever clothes your specify in name to store whatever hairclip, and ribbon monika has on and then to wear the red ribbon and the heart hairclip.
So lets break down the code a bit

1. prev_ribbon = monika_chr.get_acs_of_type("ribbon")

   • monika_chr.get_acs_of_type(): (function) It gets the acs that has the acs_type of whatever is specififed in this case ribbon

2. if store.mas_SELisUnlocked(store.mas_sprites.ACS_MAP['ribbon_red'], 0)

   • store.mas_SELisUnlocked(): (function) checks if something is unlocked
   • store.mas_sprites.ACS_MAP : (dictionary) Stores the name and a `MASAcessory object. It is the location for all ACS
   • store.mas_sprites.ACS_MAP["red_ribbon"] to access a dictionary you must enter in a key to return a value This is done through ["name"] or you can use .get("name")

3. monika_chr.wear_acs(): Takes (MAS Object) Makes monika wear a specifited ACS

   • store.mas_sprites.ACS_MAP['ribbon_red']). As we learned a moment ago with this code we can specify a MASAccessory object which is basically all the data used to wear a ACS.

4. if prev_hairclip is not None Checks if prev_hairclip has a value, if she wasn't wearing a hairclip prev_hairclip would be None. This is says as long as prev_hairclip does not equal None to do the next bit

   • In this case that is monika_chr.wear_acs(prev_hairclip) or to wear the last hairclip

You can do alot more but this is just a simple example

Good functions to know for prog points

Contents

1. monika_chr.wear_acs(): Takes (MAS Object). Makes monika wear a specifited ACS

   • ACS are stored in gstore.mas_sprites.ACS_MAP["name"]
   • Used to wear hairclips, ribbons, plushie, etc

2. monika_chr.change_clothes() : Takes (MAS Object).This changes her clothes.

   • Clothes are stored in store.mas_sprites.CLOTH_MAP["name"]

3. monika_chr.change_hair(): Takes (MAS Object). This changes her hair

   • Hair are stored in store.mas_sprites.HAIR_MAP["name"]

4. store.mas_SELisUnlocked(): Checks if somthing is unclocked

   • Takes two arguments, sprite(MAS Object) and type(int)
   • example store.mas_SELisUnlocked(store.mas_sprites.ACS_MAP['ribbon_red'], 0)
   • store.mas_sprites.ACS_MAP['ribbon_red'] is the code to get to the MASAcessory red_ribbon
   • 0 is the sprite type
   • 0 is ACS 1 is Hair, 2 is clothes

5. monika_chr.get_acs_of_type(): Takes (string). It gets the acs that she is wearing that has the acs_type of whatever is specified in. Useful to store things for later

   • Takes one argument, acs_type same one from jsons.

Reactions

Contents

This is the syntax for the different sprite types.

• ACS : mas_reaction_gift_acs_
• HAIR: mas_reaction_gift_hair_
• CLOTHES: mas_reaction_gift_clothes_

Basic Code

label mas_reaction_gift_clothes_<name>:
    $ sprite_data = mas_getSpriteObjInfo()
    $ sprite_type, sprite_name, giftname, gifted_before = sprite_data

    python:
        sprite_str = store.mas_sprites_json.SP_UF_STR.get(sprite_type, None)

    m "This is a test [player]"
    m "I hope it worked"

    $ mas_finishSpriteObjInfo(sprite_data)
    if giftname is not None:
        $ store.mas_filereacts.delete_file(giftname)
    return

This is the most basic thing you can do. This is just after she says lets see whats inside monika will say This is a test and add the player name with the var [player]. All the code you don't need to worry about just replace <name> with your name minus the <>. You can call labels from here run python or anything else. Literally anything you can do anywhere else you can do here.

Advanced Section (Coming Soon)

I didnt have enought to finished, I was going out of town for a few days. I will finishe it when I am back

[jmwall24]

Not sure if this is just your WIP, but this will probably be better served in the Wiki.

[multimokia]

Just FYI. I'd shy away from giving people access to the dev console. We removed it from the main repository for a reason. If you wanted to do something like this, sure you can make a dev tool, but have it done via topics which you can use to access everything, similar to the dev rpy's we have in the dev version.

You can PR those as well.

[LordBaaa]

@jmwall24 I am not sure if you mean I should put it in the wiki or if people should use the wiki instead. It is a WIP however each section contains a template and or explanation of what to do so all of the sections aside from the advanced one are complete I just need to remove the console stuff and add in the label version which I was already planning on adding.

@multimokia if you read my parenthesis I said I am gonna make a label version aka do it from a rpy file as opposed to the console. The console it just what I use and I wanted to write this for a while and to respond to #4314. I didn’t have enough time to add the “dev tool” version before I left. I was hopping this tutorial would be helpful to people because a few people I have talked to have had a hard time understanding the wiki. Also what does “PR those as well” mean?

[jmwall24]

@LordBaaa I meant when it is done, you should put it in the Wiki. Anyone can update the wiki, and this the kind of thing it is meant for.

[LordBaaa]

@jmwall24 Oh I didn’t know I could update the wiki. I just put it here cause that is the only place I though I could.

[multimokia]

When you have the dev tool versions, I mean to make a pull request submitting them. That way anyone who installs the developer build of MAS can use them.

[LordBaaa]

@multimokia Ahh sorry I am not the best with abbreviations. Aside needing the dev tools version what do you think of what I covered? I was trying to make it a bit more average user understandable.

[bittercaramel]

woah finally something understandable
i didnt get anything from official wiki and i had to figure it out on my own xD thought i was doing it wrong but actually i wasnt
thanx for this

[LordBaaa]

@bittercaramel Good, I’m glad it helped you. :)
