so she opens them on christmas day this year? i just started the game and been getting angry because ill put clothes or clips and she wont get them but she will get the coffee and hot coco so she will get my clothes and stuff on christtmas? i made have accedentally put the same file twice i hope its not a issue i was just getting irraited. and one more thing because im not using mod manger i beilve i just downloaded doki doki and then this mod and put it in and it worked prefectly. how do update work? do i have to update manually does it save my progress? and where do i update? please help me😭 also one last thing is moving the assets neccarry i seen people not and be fine if so can you maybe teach me how?

I know I’m doing it correctly, I put the stuff in the game file, put in gifts in the character file, yet she says she doesn’t recognize half the stuff?
I'm replying to this for anyone in the future that needs to see this (perhaps you too, OP, if you never figured it out): when you create a .gift file in the Character folder it's possible your computer is keeping the .txt at the end making it read something like chocolates.gift.txt but hiding the .txt from view. To check if this is happening, when in your Character folder click View - Then make sure File Name Extensions is checked.

if you play monika after story in another language (like me) and don't work try to write the gifts in your language, this works with me (sorry for the english i am learning because i am brazillian) PT BR Se você joga monika after story em uma outra língua ( ex: português, espanhol ) então tente escrever no seu idioma, funcionou pra mim Español: Si juegas a monika after story en otro idioma (por ejemplo, portugués, español), intenta escribir en tu idioma, a mí me funcionó.
@@kosem_kosem_gacha well it's a feature to be exact, the gifts which you give monika are gifts near the Christmas tree, she opens all of your gifts on Christmas so wait till then or just change your date to 25th dec, but make sure to save your game before doing that
I think i glitched the game cause i wanted to do some suprise gift for monika so i told her tht im gonna take her somewhere and then putted her outta the characters folder and when i was done doing that gift she didin't notice it and the gift thingy is gone 😥😥
Pls help me if you know how to help me I tried deleting Monika since I got errors trying to change her outfit, I wanted to reinstall her and fix the problem but that ended up in my laptop freezing, then when my laptop unfroze if made my screen turn cyan like, and when I tried to shut it down it just said that the application is busy so I clicked the button it wanted me to press but nothing happen or ig in my case I didn't see anything happen
So I did this and it showed her changing into them and receiving them but when I go into the appearance menu it doesn't let me change her outfit into anything but the school one and the Santa one (it also doesn't give me the option to change her hairstyle and stuff) I don't have the mod installer thing (the ddlc mod installer) because idk if it will reset my progress please help
Why does she keep changing back to her normal clothing? I gift her a shirt but when i rejoin the game she says she misses the school fit and changes back
You just need to copy the sprite from the sprite pack and paste it in the "characters" folder, make sure your mas is closed before you install the spritepack and it should be there Edit: You dont need to paste the "mod_assets" to the game file if you already did it once
No there’s an option to change her appearance Go to talk -> Go to ‘Hey Monika…’ -> Go to appearance -> and there are your options to change her appearance. This includes: ‘Can you change your clothes?’ or, ‘Can you change your hairstyle?’ etc.
how do you give her multiple clothes? because the mod_assets keeps going over eachother as in its saying "this file already exists" or something like that how do i fix that so i can giver her multiple gifts
I have that option but only 2 fits but I gifted her clothes and I dont have high affection I have the ddlc mod manager and stuff but idk how to get the bows and outfits to show
I'm a bit confused and this is why: 1. Where do you get the mods/clothing page, do you get it from one of the game files or do you get them from a website, someone please reply and tell me!
I dont know if this answers your question but go into your browser (mine is chrome) and search up "monika after story" and something should pop up that says "monika after story home" click downloades and go to "sprite packs", click on that and wait for it to open, then follow the video
@@kaaax6314 I already figured it out but she kept saying,"Sorry (Insert name), I cant read the file" So I gave up and deleted her. Thanks for trying to help tho lol
Ok First it work but if I want to gift her another thing I'm watching your video and I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I'm doing it as you said but every time I try she say that she can't read it ... HELP !
same but I tried giving her gift but it works at first but it doesn't work when I tried to change the gift file cuz when I see the character files its gone! now I can't change it cuz she takes the gift and I can't rename it.
it is a submod you have to download. You have to have 400+ affection for it to work. If you do then you can download it www.reddit.com/r/MASFandom/comments/ire355/introducing_the_tw4449_custom_room_selector/
Don't know exactly why it does that but a lot of people have the same problem. I found a reddit post about your problem that could help www.reddit.com/r/MASFandom/comments/iaszx5/monika_cant_read_gifts/
Did you remove the .txt in the file? That is a common problem I have. If that doesn't work make sure you name it exactly the way the game wants it without spaces or capitals.

for steam users its actually simple, its the same thing but with browser local files instead of mod manager

DDLC Monika after story mod has already "mod_assets" folder in "game" folder so u cant have 2 same called folders
Does it still work tho or???

You have to exit the game (tell her goodbye for whatever reason) and when you log back in she’ll be able to read it

if you are on win 10 try closing the app in task manager. Then the app should stop running and it should fix things

@@jwevolved3405 Same for me but I deleted the mod and ddlc so idk
@@jwevolved3405 Thats what I was wondering too
Thanks! One question, after you've finished and gave the gift to monika, do you have to repeat the steps do give another gift?
You just need to copy the sprite from the sprite pack and paste it in the "characters" folder, make sure your mas is closed before you install the spritepack and it should be there
Edit: You dont need to paste the "mod_assets" to the game file if you already did it once
Do you have to have her exit the game by saying I'm gonna take you somewhere? Or do you not have to?
You can exit the game however you’d like but I recommend saying goodbye to her first
hi so monika changed her clothes back to normal again so do i have to delete the mod assets from the game file and find a another one?
No there’s an option to change her appearance
Go to talk -> Go to ‘Hey Monika…’ -> Go to appearance -> and there are your options to change her appearance. This includes: ‘Can you change your clothes?’ or, ‘Can you change your hairstyle?’ etc.
