Hey everyone. Since returning, I’ve noticed a lot of people are using gems in their stories now. So I thought I’d make things easier for authors by giving them some templates for the outfit choices, as a lot of people are getting confused. For support the author gem choices, I’d recommend using @Dara.Amarie template on her website. Otherwise you can use the alternative ways below.
ONE GEM OUTFIT
This template is your basic outfit game with 1 gem choice.
Script
INT. GYM BASKETBALL SEA SPARKLE - NIGHT
@NAME enters from left to center
label OUTFIT_GAME_1
&NAME is idle_shiftweight_neutral_loop
NARR
What would you like to wear?
choice (Outfit_Game_1)
<PREMIUM> "Premium Outfit" {
@NAME previews outfit Premium_Outfit
goto GAME_1_GEM
}
"Standard Outfit 1" {
@NAME changes into Standard_Outfit_1
}
"Standard Outfit 2" {
@NAME changes into Standard_Outfit_2
}
NARR
Is this what you want to wear?
choice
<PREMIUM> "Yes, I look great!" {
goto STORY_START
}
"No, let me try something else." {
goto OUTFIT_GAME_1
}
label GAME_1_GEM
NARR
Do you want to buy and wear this outfit?
choice (PREMIUM_OUTFIT)
<GEMS:5> "Yes, I look great!" {
@NAME changes into Premium_Outfit

"No, let me try something else." {

goto OUTFIT_GAME_1
}

OPTIONAL GEM OUTFIT
This template gives your readers to option to spend gems, without limiting their choice. I highly recommend using this template.

}
NARR

GEM WARDROBE
This is what you see in many Episode Originals where they give you a wardrobe and you can then use it during the story. This uses gains. If you are not familiar with gains/if/elif/else, I do not recommend using this template.

&NAME is idle_shiftweight_neutral_loop
NARR
What is your aesthetic?
choice
<PREMIUM> "Trendy" {
@NAME previews outfit TRENDY_1
&NAME is flirt_wink_atcamera
goto TRENDY
}
<PREMIUM> "Edgy" {
@NAME previews outfit EDGY_1
&NAME is primp_neutral
goto EDGY
}
"Basic" {
@NAME changes into Basic_1
goto BASIC
}
label TRENDY
NARR
Stun everyone around you with your trendy style!
@NAME previews outfit TRENDY_2

NARR

NARR

choice (TRENDY)
<GEMS:12> "Yes, I want to be the trendsetter!" {
@NAME changes into TRENDY_1
gain TRENDY
goto STORY_START
}
"No, I want to look at my other options." {

These templates can all easily be changed back into dressing games without gems simply by removing the < GEMS > section before the choice name.
Using gems in your story is 100% up to you as the author. Just please be aware that many people don’t like gem choices at all, please use at your own discretion.
If anyone has any questions, or requests regarding these, please let me know.
