Modding:Movie theater data

← Index

This page explains how the files associated with the Movie Theater, what each of them do, and how they are formatted. This is an advanced guide for mod developers.

Movie data

Data\Movies.xnb contains the data for all movies, including their names, descriptions, genre tags, scenes, and dialogue and narration spoken within the film. For reference, below is the raw data of "The Brave Little Sapling" as of 1.6.15:

Format

The Data/Movies asset is a list of models, which have the following fields:

key format	description
Id	A unique string ID which identifies this movie. This should only contain alphanumeric/underscore/dot characters.
Seasons	(Optional) The seasons when the movie should play, or omit for any season. For example: "Seasons": [ "Spring", "Summer" ]
YearModulus YearRemainder	(Optional) If set, plays the movie on alternating years based on the formula theater_age % modulus == remainder, where theater_age is the number of years since the movie theater was built. If omitted, the movie plays in any year. For example: // play in the first year, and every second year thereafter "YearModulus": 2, "YearRemainder": 0 // play in the second year, and every second year thereafter "YearModulus": 2, "YearRemainder": 1
Texture	(Optional) The asset name for the movie poster and screen images, or omit to use LooseSprites\Movies. This must be a spritesheet with one 490×128 pixel row per movie. A 13×19 area in the top-left corner of the row should contain the movie poster. With a 16-pixel offset from the left edge, there should be two rows of five 90×61 pixel movie screen images, with a six-pixel gap between each image. (The movie doesn't need to use all of the image slots.)
SheetIndex	Determines where the game looks for the movie's scene sprites within LooseSprites\Movies.xnb. This includes the movie poster and screen images for the movie.
Title	A tokenizable string for the title of the film.
Description	A tokenizable string for the description of the film, seen when interacting with its poster outside of the theater.
Tags	A list of genres that apply to the movie, used to calculate an NPC's reaction to a movie. Can be any arbitrary string; the ones currently used in the game are: family, comedy, horror, art, action, sci-fi, classic, romance, and documentary.
CranePrizes	(Optional) The items to add to the crane game prize pool on days when this movie is playing, if any. This consists of a list of models with these fields: field effect common fields See item spawn fields for the generic item fields supported for crane game items. If set to an item query which returns multiple items, one of them will be selected at random. Rarity (Optional) The prize pool to add the item to. The possible values are 1 (common), 2 (rare), and 3 (deluxe). Default 1.
ClearDefaultCranePrizeGroups	(Optional) The prize pools whose default items to discard, so only those specified by CranePrizes are available. Default none. For example: "ClearDefaultCranePrizeGroups": [ 2, 3 ]
Scenes	A list of data blocks for the film's scenes. (See below.)

Scenes

The Scenes is a list of blocks, each corresponding to a specific scene in the movie. The blocks are listed in chronological order, and the data of each one is as follows:

key format	description
Image	Which image to show within the sequence of the movie's sprites in LooseSprites\Movies.xnb.
Music	The music track to play during the scene. Can be left blank.
Sound	The sound effect to play during the scene. Can be left blank.
MessageDelay	How long to hold the scene before displaying any text.
Script	Used for special visual/auditory effects. Written in the same format as event scripts. Supports tokenizable strings.
Text	The dialogue/narration of the scene. Supports tokenizable strings.
Shake	A boolean value which, if true, adds screen-shake.
ResponsePoint	If specified, an NPC's reaction data can reference the scene by this name in order to have a specific, timed reaction to it.
ID	An ID for the scene in the format of <season><number>_<index>. <season> and <number> are identical to those values in the ID of the movie itself. <index> is, counting from 0, what number scene this is in the movie.

For example, this content pack adds a new 'Pufferchick II' movie which plays in winter every third year:

{

    "Changes": [
        {
            "Action": "EditData",

                "{{ModId}}_PufferchickII": {
                    "Id": "{{ModId}}_PufferchickII", // must specify ID again when creating a new entry

                    "Seasons": [ "winter" ],
                    "YearModulus": 3,
                    "YearRemainder": 0,

                    "Title": "Pufferchick II", // display text should usually use {{i18n}} for translations in actual usage
                    "Description": "A sequel to the breakthrough adventure anime Pufferchick. The world is saved; what happens next?",
                    "Tags": [ "family", "adventure" ],

                    "Texture": "{{InternalAssetKey: assets/movie.png}}", // an image in your content pack
                    "SheetIndex": 0,

                    "Scenes": [ ... ]
                }
            }
        }
    ]
}

Movie reactions

Data\MoviesReactions.xnb contains every NPC's taste in movies and their dialogue in response to them. For reference, below is the raw data for Penny's reactions as of 1.6.15:

Format

Each block of data within the file begins with an NPCName key, which is the name of the NPC to whom the rest of the data in the block will apply. This is followed by a list with the key Reactions. Each block within this list is the data for an NPC's response to a specific type of movie.

The data within each block is formatted as follows:

key format	description
Tag	Which category of movie this response is for. In decreasing order of specificity, this can be: *, in which case the response will always be applicable, unless there are other restrictions applied by Whitelist a genre of movie, as listed in the Tags field of a film's data the NPC's reaction to a movie, one of love, like, or dislike. a specific movie's identifier, as listed at the header of its block. (i.e. spring_movie_0 for "The Brave Little Sapling")
Response	One of love, like, dislike, or reject. Used to calculate Friendship points gained with the NPC. A loved movie earns 200 Friendship points with the NPC, a liked movie earns 100 Friendship points, and a disliked movie neither earns nor costs friendship points with the NPC. Rejected movies will turn down the ticket and say their line for RejectMovieTicket_DontWantToSeeThatMovie.
Whitelist	A list of NPC names. If not empty, the response will only be applicable if, in addition to the movie matching Tag, one of the listed NPCs is also present within the theater. Currently only used for Penny, who has a special reaction to watching a movie if her mother Pam is present.
SpecialResponses	Contains the dialogue spoken by an NPC during the film in a series of blocks. (See below.) Can be left null.
ID	A unique identifier in the form of reaction_<index>, where <index> is, counting from 0, what number block this is within the Reactions list.

For unknown reasons, in the vanilla game code, when the Tag field is love or dislike, the Responsefield will always be like.

Special responses

Each SpecialResponses block contains 3 blocks, beginning with BeforeMovie, DuringMovie, and AfterMovie, in that order. Any of these blocks may be left null. By default, the dialogue within these blocks triggers when talking to the NPC in the movie theater lobby, at a random point during the movie, and after the movie is finished, respectively. The data within each block is as follows:

key format	description
ResponsePoint	If not null, this dialogue will trigger at the given response point instead of its regular timing. See the scenes field documentation for an explanation of response points.
Script	A script which runs prior to Text being displayed. Written in the same format as event scripts.
Text	The dialogue spoken by the NPC. Supports tokenizable strings.

If multiple response blocks are applicable to the movie, the game uses the first non-null Response, BeforeMovie, DuringMovie, and AfterMovie fields it can find. Said data does not necessarily have to come from the same response block. If the game cannot find applicable DuringMovie dialogue, it will use default text from Strings\Characters.xnb. If the game cannot find applicable BeforeMovie or AfterMovie dialogue, the NPC will show as being able to be spoken to, but interacting with them will have no effect.

Movie Identifiers

key	movie title
spring_movie_0	The Brave Little Sapling
summer_movie_0	Journey Of The Prairie King: The Motion Picture
fall_movie_0	Mysterium
winter_movie_0	The Miracle At Coldstar Ranch

Format

Each block within the list has the following data:

key format	description
Name	Who this block should apply to. Can be the name of an NPC or *, in which case the tastes will apply to every NPC.
LovedTags LikedTags DislikedTags	A list of concession tags that are loved, liked, or disliked. This can be an ItemTag, or the internal name of a specific concession. To determine an NPC's opinion of a concession, the game totals how many tags from each group apply, with LovedTags and LikedTags contributing a positive score and DislikedTags contributing a negative. Purchasing a loved snack earns 50 Friendship points with the NPC, a liked snack earns 25 Friendship points, and a disliked snack neither earns nor costs friendship points with the NPC.

Concession tags

Black Licorice is the only item that doesn't have specific concession tags attached to it. Stardrop Sorbet is a universally loved item, whereas Black Licorice, Joja Cola, and JojaCorn are universally disliked items.

Movie selection

Since the Data/Movies asset is a list, its order determines the order movies are shown within a season. If multiple movies can play in the same season, each movie will be shown for an equal block of days within the month (e.g. four movies will each play for seven consecutive days). If there are more movies than days, 28 movies will be chosen at random to play that month.
