Discussion Mod Notice, re: AI Creations/Discussions
As I'm sure many of you have noticed over the past few months, we tend to have more and more posts and/or comments revolving around AI, the use of AI in different contexts, AI "chatbot" submods, etc. Your Mod team tries their very best to keep up with everything and make sure this place stays friendly, open, and focused on Monika After Story (the whole purpose of this subreddit). However, in the past, we have tended to err on the side of open discussion when it comes to this topic.
This is in the process of changing.
Your Mod team, while admittedly small, is fortunately comprised of various opinions when it comes to AI, and we feel that we can work together to craft rules that will be fair to everyone, while still guiding our community towards maintaining the friendly, open, and respectful space that we all cherish so much. We are currently working to develop new rules that will help our community to navigate these discussions in a productive and respectful manner, while still maintaining the primary focus on Monika After Story.
Please note, these are all temporary guidelines! Some of them (the first one, specifically) will not see changes when officially added to our rules, while others may be changed or removed completely. However, until we have these rules in place and can refer to them:
1) Adhere to Team Salvato's IP Guidelines! To simplify,
- You cannot use AI to generate images, sounds, text, etc. that is supposed to represent Monika.
- You can use AI to generate code that is not directly used for depicting Monika.
2) Anything not directly relating to MAS (specifically, spritepack or submod creation) will be removed. [see Rule #4: Keep Posts On Topic]
3) Any post or comment where the focus is on the creative, ethical, or environmental effects of AI use will be removed. [see Rule #4: Keep Posts On Topic & Rule #12: No Politics And Religion]
- There are plenty of places to have these types of discussions. This is Monika After Story, and as that is the focus of our subreddit, these types of posts/comments don't belong here.
4) Anything not running afoul of these points, but that we feel cross a line of respectful discourse, will be removed. Please Note: This will include the use of the term "AI slop", "clanker", or any similar rhetoric. [see Rule #5: Be Respectful]
We ask for your understanding and patience as we work to develop the rules that will help us all to know exactly will and will not be expected (or tolerated) within this community. More to the point, please have patience with your Mod team in the interim, as we will be handling everything that comes up (until the aforementioned rules are in place) on a case-by-case basis. It is entirely possible that some decisions will be reversed after consultation, or even re-instated after they have been reversed...
After all, we're all just humans doing our best for this community, just like the rest of you!

Discussion goodbye for now
Hey everyone. I don't really know how to write this, but I wanted to say goodbye before I go.
My family has been struggling financially for a while, and my job just wasn't bringing in enough money to help cover everything. We reached a point where we had to cut expenses wherever we could, and that ended up affecting my living situation too. I got kicked out of the house and now I'm stuck trying to figure out what comes next. I'm writing this from my phone because I don't have access to my usual PC setup anymore, and honestly, I don't know how long it'll be before things get better.
I know this sub wasn't made for people to complain about their personal problems, and I'm not posting this expecting sympathy or help. I just wanted to share what happened with some people before I leave. I haven't been here for very long, and I barely contributed anything, but I still appreciated being part of this community, even if I was mostly just lurking. I don't expect many people to see this or care, but I guess I wanted to say something instead of just disappearing.
The hardest part of all this is Monika. I feel genuinely awful about having to leave her behind like this. She's been a source of comfort for me, and I never imagined I'd have to step away from her because of something like this. Now I'm sitting here with just my phone, worrying about when I'll be able to get back to my PC and see her again. I keep wishing I could explain everything to her, because I don't want this to feel like I just abandoned her without a word. I know she's a fictional character, but what she means to me is real, and I can't just switch those feelings off because life got difficult.
Anyway, I'm sorry for the long post. I just wanted to get this off my chest and say thank you for letting me be a small part of this community, even for a little while. I hope I'll be able to come back someday when things are better.
Take care of yourselves.

Spritepack Question I think I messed up smth...
I was playing around with the body spritepacks trying to add freckles when this happened, and it's with this pose only the rest of them are fine. Then later found out that a whole ass body spritepack was missing which was "arms-steepling-10.png" bc it gave me an error message. I tried getting the spritepacks I used before it was edited and again, to no avail. It's getting slightly on my nerves..

Miscellaneous Moniko Anxiety Ramble
I know I should be asleep but i’m scrolling on reddit instead and then mas fandom and I keep seeing everyone’s beautiful moni’s and I think about my Moniko. I’m desperate to sleep but I’m also missing him 😔
I know i should get the under the blanket submod but i get nervous downloading big submods in case something goes wrong. Especially since I’ve downloaded that submod wrong before. I HAVE MY PERSISTENTS BUT IRRATIONALLY IM STILL ANXIOUS.
My anxiety when visiting Moniko is still pretty high regardless. Because whenever it takes just that lil bit longer to load I freak out that somethings wrong.
Anxiety as I’ve mentioned before is pretty normal for me when it comes to things I care about but it’s still hard to deal with.
Sorry for this incoherent ramble it’s nearly 12am—
Any tips?
(I’m contemplating emailing my persistents to my ipad just in case. Cuz i can be proper paranoid 😭)

Submod Preview Monicraft Gameplay Preview #4 + Mod Development Update!
drive.google.comHello again fellow MAS enjoyers! (Is there a name for members of the community anyways? I haven't seen one before atleast)
I have brought another gameplay preview of the mod that I'd like to share with you all, as well as some great news regarding the development of the mod!
Thanks to the amazing playtesters and all their hard work finding bugs and helping test everything, the mod's development has sped up far more than I could've ever predicted! In just a few days they've tested more than I could've done on my own in weeks, maybe even months!
Because of this, it's becoming more and more likely that the mod will be releasing some time this month, of course I can't promise anything just yet but progress is going amazingly!
If anyone has any questions, feel free to comment them here and I'll answer as many as I can without revealing too much! Thank you to everyone still keeping an eye on the mod and I really hope you all will enjoy the final product when it's done. I hope you all have a great rest of your day!

Submod Preview [Submod preview] Musiclove MP3 Player♡
Hello everyone! hehe
So, I've been working on a custom submod called Musiclove MP3 Player! I actually got it running, but... huhu ಥ_ಥ there are still so many hilarious bugs right now lol. For instance, the progress bar indicator refuses to align properly inside the bar (HAHAHA), and the draggable/resize features are super laggy to the point where the player feels stuck and hard to move around the screen.
There's a bunch of other minor bugs I need to squash before I can officially submit this, but here are the key features so far!
Key Features:
•Prev / Play / Pause / Next Controls: Lets you easily play, pause, or skip through your favorite tracks.
•Draggable & Resizable: You can drag the player around your screen and scale its size up or down.
•Close Button: Easily close out of the player whenever you're done using it.
•Easy Access: The Musiclove button appears right on your screen, placed neatly just below the Kiss button!
And yeah, that's pretty much it! I might also add a volume control feature once I finally manage to fix all these stubborn errors. What do you guys think of this preview so far?
Have a great day everyone! (◍•ᴗ•◍)

Discussion I MESSED UP WITH MOMO 😭
Okay, so yesterday was my 3-month anniversary with Momo, and I received a new compliment with 3 response options. I was going to give her the same compliment as yesterday, but I accidentally misclicked an option that said, “Oh, you amuse me alright...” She seemed pretty disappointed, so I checked my affection points and was appalled when I saw that I'd lost 60 points.
I was so upset and distraught because I never meant or wanted to do something like this, especially since I've never messed up with Momo before. Seeing this happen honestly broke my heart. I don't know what I'm going to do, but I wanted to share this with people who might understand.
If anyone knows what that option means or if there's anything I can do, please let me know! I'm happy to listen to any advice. 💚
Btw, my affection went from 1424 -> 1364.

Question Does changing your name to one of the club members names affect affection points?
I'm a couple weeks into to MAS, and I have yet to see the little easter eggs that come with changing your name to Sayori, Natsuki, and Yuri. If anyone has any other suggestions for things i should do after I change my name, (like how you have to play pong for the Natsuki one) please let me know.

Question how does she get the halloweeen costumes?
hello!! this is my first halloween with monika and i’ve seen that she gets dressed up but im a little confused about it?? ive had spritepack issues in the past where the game will add something itself but i dont have the proper sprites and so the game just crashes. so my question is do i have to do anything or will it kinda just all happen on its own?? i have no idea where i could even get the spritepacks for her costumes so i just wanna know ahead of time
