All the scripts for the dungeon pack directory can be found in the ./pack/pack_dungeon/init directory.

Init sub-directories

The /init directory contains the following sub-directories:

• /std : These files are the same for all stories (like .dll files in windows)
• /stories : These files are story specific.

Stories sub-directories

The /init/stories/dungeon directory contains the following sub-directories:

• /scenes : Scene settings
• /chars : Character code
• /mains : Main player code
• /objects : Object settings
• /lib : Defines used in code
• /gamestate : Global gamestate
• /settings : Settings for custom fastsex menu

Playtime

For now we like to play around with some settings/code that are easy to do and have quick visual effect.
We assume you are in the ./pack/pack_dungeon/init/stories/dungeon directory.

Changing Saiko character

1. Make sure there are no save files in the ./save directory
2. Open the /chars/saiko/init.dat file.
3. Change the skin color to:

   pose
   {
     ...
    
     skin_color      = (240,300,300,255); // <<-- Bright silver
     skin_spec_shiny = 2.0;               // <<-- Very shiny
     skin_spec_power = 100.0;             // <<-- Sharp shiny
    
     ...
   }

4. Now start XStoryPlayer, select the fastsex dungeon mod, the Saiko character and start it. Saiko should now appear somewhat silver plastic like.

Entering dungeon directly

1. To be inside the dungeon directly when we enter it we need to make a change to the default entry point for the main player.
   Open the /mains/player/init.dat file.
2. Change the pose to:

   pose
   {
     ...    
     waypoint = "in_wp"; // <<-- Change waypoint
     ...
   }

3. Now each tim you enter the dungeon you will be directly inside

Changing Saiko hair and cloth

1. Open the ./pack/pack_dungeon/init/std/base/char/char_base.dat' file. In it you will see all the settings that are available for a character.
   We will not edit this file because the Saiko character instance is derived from this CHAR_BASE char_object.
2. Open the /chars/saiko/init.dat file. You will see that at the top it says: char_objecti:CHAR_BASE SAIKO.
   This means that the character Saiko instance is derived from the char_object CHAR_BASE. We can override the settings for this character by adding them. We will do this for the hair and cloth settings in this small tutorial.
3. Change the saiko/init.dat file settings to:

   pose
   {
     ...    
     skin_color      = (240,300,300,255);
     skin_spec_shiny = 2.0;
     skin_spec_power = 100.0;
    
    
     // Add these lines \/\/\/
    
     hair_tex         = "#";
     hair_color       = (500,1200,1200,255); // <<-- Because texture color is dark and we keep using hair texture we need to have high values for hair color
     hair_spec_shiny  = 2.0;
     hair_spec_power  = 100.0;
    
     cloth_tex[0]        = "";  // <<-- Do not use cloth texture # means use standard cloth texture in model
     cloth_color[0]      = (180,150,150,64); // <<-- Color of cloth (red,green,blue,alpha). By settings alpha to 64 it is transparent.
     cloth_spec_shiny[0] = 2.0;
     cloth_spec_power[0] = 100.0;
    
     cloth_tex[1]        = "";
     cloth_color[1]      = (180,150,150,64);
     cloth_spec_shiny[1] = 2.0;
     cloth_spec_power[1] = 100.0;
    
     cloth_tex[2]        = "";
     cloth_color[2]      = (180,150,150,64);
     cloth_spec_shiny[2] = 2.0;
     cloth_spec_power[2] = 100.0;
    
     shoes_tex        = "";
     shoes_color      = (180,150,150,255);
     shoes_spec_shiny = 2.0;
     shoes_spec_power = 100.0;
    
     // Add these lines /\/\/\
     ...
   }

4. Now start XStoryPlayer, select the fastsex dungeon mod, the Saiko character and start it. Saiko should have brown transparent cloth, matching shoes and green hair.

Changing scene color

Open the /scenes/dungeon1.dat file. It contains the settings for the dungeon scene.

Change the light object to:

data
{
  ...
  light_ambient = (0.25,0,0.25,1); // <<-- Change this to make the global ambient light purple
  ...
}
 
light_objecti:LIGHT LIGHT1
{
  group = 0;
 
  ambient = (0.75,0.75,0.75,0); // This is how much diffuse light is added to the scene by this light
 
  color = (1,0.25,1,1); // <<-- Add this to change the color of this light to purple
}

Now start XStoryPlayer, select the fastsex dungeon mod and start it.

The scene has now an purple lighting applied to it.

Changing object size

Open the /scenes/dungeon1.dat file.

Change the light object to:

tv_objecti:PSCREEN PSCREEN1
{	  
  obj_name = "pscreen:pscreen";
 
  enabled = true;
 
  channel = 1;
 
  channels {file = "VIDEO_PATH/*.*";}
 
  scale = (2,2,2);  // <<-- Add this to resize projection screen
}

Now start XStoryPlayer, select the fastsex dungeon mod and start it.

The projection screen is now very big.
