In Kemoverse Online, custom content refers to content you (the player) can create for your own enjoyment or to help development. Thus, this page contains information how it works and how to make it.


Content

Scripts

See scripting.

Instruments

Create .sf2 files. (Work in progress)

TTS addenda

Annoyed that some words aren't pronounced correctly and don't want to create a bunch of autotexts? Make your own lexical additions! Open up the game's data folder (Windows: %appdata%\tko) (Linux: ~/.config/local/TKo/). Create a file called "lexicon.txt" and enter this text:

  1. This is a comment

text : hh eh0 l ow0 This is a lexical pronunciation file ("addenda") that is re-applied when you focus back in to the game. In this example, when writing "test" in the game, your character pronounces it as "hello" as spelled out by the phonemes ("hh eh0 l ow0"). You can refer to the TTS library (Festvox/Flite) phonome page for a reference.

Patterns

You can create custom body and clothing patterns for use in the game! Create the texture first using the appropriate template in the gallery below, and then head to the character creator. Make sure "Use simple shaders" is toggled off!

  1. Create a new character if you want to preview a new body pattern.
  2. Press Ctrl+Shift+O to open the file load dialog, find your file, and load it.

Or...

  1. Go to the wardrobe as any character to preview a new clothing pattern.
  2. Hold Shift+Ctrl and click the dropdown list to open the file load dialog, find your file, and load it.

Then:

  • Preview how the pattern looks on the character. If you select a built-in pattern, you have to load your pattern again.
  • Make changes in your art program and resave the file. When you focus back in to the game, the new pattern will be reloaded.

As you're editing, pay attention to any visible seams or deformations using the posing keys! (Shift+G/Ctrl+G) Some warping is unavoidable, but if it looks good when standing or walking, it should be okay. Prioritize how your texture looks over how it looks in-game, because in the case the shirt changes in the future, it would only try to make the patterns look better.

Pattern textures use the Red, Green, and Blue channel to specify the custom colors that you specify in the character creator. If you want to blend the different channels together (e.g. have a spot with multiple color influences) then you have to use the layer blending mode 'Add' to prevent the normal blending darkening the colors! Please note that previewed patterns are not saved, uploaded, or otherwise visible to others! It's strictly an offline-only tool for creating patterns!
