HOW TO: Customize Characters

[JemU776]

A command that exists:

@YOU previews Feature Random

@YOU unpreviews Feature Random

So, let’s say my character’s hair style is Short Wavy Ombre, I can write this:

@YOU previews hair Short Curly Blow Out

This will change her hair into this. Then when I write:

@YOU unpreviews hair Short Curly Blow Out

her hairstyle will change back to Short Wavy Ombre.

Hope this makes sense, it can be applied to the other features as well, not just hairstyles. It can be applied to outfits, too.

@YOU previews outfit OUTFIT_NAME
@YOU unpreviews outfit OUTFIT_NAME

&

-It only works in one episode where you can unpreview/preview outfits and/or features

-In the next episode, it automatically defaults to what they originally wore/have regardless of whether you previewed it and let it stay previewed for the entire previous episode.

I have a question. How do I remember customization? I tried to but it didn’t work.

[JemU776]

@Izzie_Silver

How do I remember customization?

Test on mobile app. Customization automatically carries over. For example, if you make the character change into red eyes, they will have red eyes throughout the whole episode and story

If you’re talking about remembering certain features from a full CC template then you can’t if you try using both simple methods of remembering a past choice Using if/elif/else to Remember Past Choices :

@Dara.Amarie

This choice name and option method will not work with a customization template or repeated choices:

Customization templates have repeated choices. Inside each choice is a goto that leads back to the label to start the choice over again, so technically whatever choice you tapped on does not get remembered since the choice gets repeated.

&

@Dara.Amarie

You also cannot use the gains/flags method with customization templates. A customization template has choices that repeat so you can go back and keep changing your appearance and choosing multiple choices at once. Adding gains to all those choices will result in the reader gaining all of those gains after clicking on all the options.

Oh, Thanks so much. I was really worried!

When I type the command “@JASON (sorry for pinging whoever has the username ‘Jason’) goes to character avatar”, (Jason is MC) and I choose to customize him, it won’t direct me to the Avatar Creator. Is it only for females? Please help!

[amberose]

Are you doing it on the portal or in the app?

[Limbium]

What do you mean? Do you mean testing it in the portal or in the app? If so, I tested it on both.

[amberose]

Avatar Creator won’t work on the portal but it should work in the app

[Limbium]

I thought we couldn’t code in the app because it’s mobile?

[amberose]

Sorry, I mean when you test it. It won’t work in the portal when you test it but it will work in the app

[Limbium]

But I did test it in the app, and it still didn’t work.

[amberose]

That’s what I was trying to ask you. Can you post your script here so I can check if there’s an error?

[Limbium]

Okay. I watched a video from Joseph Evans for this.

INT. BLACK - NIGHT
NARR
Blood Wolf’s Curse: Chapter 1

@JASON stands screen center AND JASON faces right

label changing_appearance

NARR
Your name is Jason. You may change your name after customizing yourself.
Would you like to customize Jason?

choice
“Yes!”{

@JASON goes to character avatar
goto changing_appearance

}
“No.”{

}

@JASON exits right

@transition fade out black 1

This is what I have so far.

[amberose]

@Limbium

goto changing_appearance

I think the problem might be because of this. If you get rid of this line, does anything different happen?
