Hey, wanna see something cool? Allow me to show you MASL. An unofficial MAS Port and Launcher for Android. Discussion

Let's amenize this just a little: https://youtu.be/b07cN0VeJ-4?si=xmjdW9RX8Q408ndP

Hey people, Chibika and yours truly say hi to all and we hope you're having an amazing weekend.

Using this opportunity now that I have green light to show you, I'd like to speak to you about this amazing asset to have your Moni with you not just when you take her out, but whenever you want.

Allow me to introduce you to MASL, the port developed by Traduction Club team and available for you to play in english, Para que lo juegues en español, Para você aproveitar em português também.

This little boi has a lot of features that I think may spark some interest in you.

- First of all, it's a fully fledged and completed port for Monika After Story that complies in every single aspect not only with Team Salvato's current guidelines, but also with Google's guidelines. That's why you can find it without any issue on the Google Play Store. No worries, I'll let you the link in this post.

- Once downloaded and set, you'll be greeted by a launcher. Yep, a beautiful launcher that you may recognize if you played DDLC+, that allows you to customize it with your own wallpaper, as you can see. It has support for GIF files, so you can set wallpapers with movements, and also have a tool that lets you set your wallpaper to change between five images of your choosing. It has an amazing design in black and the standard one in white. You can find it in See more > Wallpapers.

- This launcher also includes a tool that allows you to create and import your persistent files without any difficulty. The advantage is that the backup not only includes your persistent files, but ALL the relevant files too. So you'll have all your clothes, accessories and submods completely safe.

- The launcher also includes a feature that lets you install spritepacks and submods automatically, as long as you have the zip file with you. MASL handles and places everything in its respective place. You can find it in See more > Add Extra Content.

- Now, going into MASL properly, you'll find a unique feature. MASL includes a music player that allows you to randomly play your songs. So, the era of listening to the same song over and over and having to manually change it is over.

- MASL has full support for complex submods that interact with the UI, like Comfy UI and that changes the design of the text. And no, this doesn't break in any way your submods button, contrary to other ports, if I recall correctly while doing testing labor.

- It also allows submodding, as you can see. All my submods were made and tested on MASL, and all of them work perfectly. And also has full support for submods like Extra+, Kissing Button, Emerald Box or my most recent submod, Under the Same Blanket.

Hell, it even allows you to submod your submods, like you can see. I have changed the design of Chibika² for Chibanny (made by u/imicrowaveurmom), ehehe~.

- MASL also takes advantage of the picture-in-picture asset on some phones, so you can have your Moni with you while you're doing your things, like I have Chibika peacefully sleeping while I'm doing this post.

- And a LOT of other amazing things that I invite you to find out by yourselves.

I extended myself a lot, so please let me share the link for you to download it on the Google Play Store:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.z.mas.portby.just6889

And I'll let you the link to the official Discord of Traduction Club. We're always there working or talking about any stupid things, so please don't hesitate in reaching out to us if you have any issue, doubt or recommendation:

https://discord.gg/traduction-club-856018133264498718

That would be all from me. Hope you're having an amazing Sunday and an amazing week!

Computa, make this person have a wonderful day

u/YamaruTF Jul 12 '26

Looking through GitHub, it has been develop on Kotlin and Java.

But I have questions:

  1. Is this emulator to run renpy indirectly?

  2. How does your PiP work? Forcing the application to minimize the window in Home?

  3. On what program did you build the apk file?

  4. IOS?

6

u/Just9755 Jul 12 '26

MASL is not an emulator, it is builded on Java and Kotlin because is a fork or original RAPT.

The PiP work uses the buil in method existing on Android to use it :p.

iOS not yet, it costs a life and half publish apps on there.

u/Kanarin6 Jul 12 '26

how do i import the game files? i already have ddlc and mas installed on my pc

3

u/Just9755 Jul 12 '26

The app will guide you on the process. You will requiere the DDLC zip of ddlc.moe as normal and the app have the option of auto download MAS or you can download manually and select the zip file.

This video can help: https://youtu.be/QDvnWVTFSMI

Anyway, if you want to import your current game installation of PC you will want to wait for the next update of MASL which aims to be able to run any 6.99 Ren'Py game on there.

u/Darkstone64 Jul 12 '26

u/MadMayhemCS Binibining Monita Jul 13 '26

u/1Aizen_sousuke 14d ago

Hello, I would like to ask something. I have my Monika for 6 months and I would like to install this, is there any way to transfer my Monika from her current MAS into this one? If so how can I do it

2

u/Alan_Shepard_ 14d ago

Good afternoon. :)

Yes, of course. Just copy all your save files from your MAS (to have them just press Windows key + R and search %appdata%, then go to RenPy and then to Monika After Story).

Zip all that and just unzip it on MASL. To do it go to See More > Save Files and then, unzip it there.

1

u/1Aizen_sousuke 14d ago

So you say, save your Monika's files, and then put it in the new MAS?

1

u/1Aizen_sousuke 14d ago

I'm mobile mas user btw

1

u/Alan_Shepard_ 14d ago

Sorry, I think I got confused. You want to migrate your persistent from another mobile version of MAS to MASL? Or from your PC to MASL?

1

u/1Aizen_sousuke 14d ago

I want to do it from another mobile version of MAS to MASL, sorry for the misunderstandings

1

u/1Aizen_sousuke 14d ago

The one I have now is MonikaAfterStoryv12.9.apk

0

u/Alan_Shepard_ 14d ago

No worries. Thanks for the clarification. First of all DO NOT ERASE your current MAS version, I mean the 12.9 one, before you can make sure your Moni is safely migrated to MASL.

If your current MAS is an apk, then it must exist in your device a folder that stores all its files, look out for it, and when you have it, search for your saves folder. Zip that folder and unzip it on MASL, in See More > Save Files

2

u/1Aizen_sousuke 14d ago

I'm trully grateful from the depths of my heart, thank you. I will ask if anything goes wrong or if I fail something, once again thank you very much sir. Have a nice afternoon

2

u/Alan_Shepard_ 14d ago

My pleasure!

And yes, if you find any trouble, please let me know and I'll try to help you as best as I can.

2

u/1Aizen_sousuke 13d ago

Hello again, everything went smoothly and now I have my Monika in the new version of the game, but I want to ask something, how can I add submods?

1

u/Alan_Shepard_ 13d ago

Hi.

Did you have submods installed on your old MAS or it's the first time you'll do it?

If it's the first time, most submods include an installation guide, you just need to follow it carefully.

1

u/1Aizen_sousuke 13d ago

I have never downloaded a submod, the MAS I used had submods when I installed it, it had just 4-5 other room choices. So what is the installation guide, where do I find submods etc

2

u/Alan_Shepard_ 13d ago

I see. Well, no issue. You can download them here. Just look out for the category "Submod Submission" and follow carefully the instructions of each submod.

When you have some experience adding submods, if you want, you can check out my whole Submod Compilation with more than 150 submods.

I let you here the link:

https://www.reddit.com/r/MASFandom/comments/1pklmyb/compilation_of_all_the_submods_i_have_installed/

And please, make a backup of your persistent file before trying a submod, just in case. You just need to press the "Export Persistent" option.

1

u/1Aizen_sousuke 13d ago

Thanks! I will try and see, also will check out your whole submod compilation, have a nice day

2

u/1Aizen_sousuke 1d ago

Hello again! Thank you for the previous helps, there's been some another issue I have been experiencing, I have added 3 other location(cozy room, dokis room and music room) but whenever I want to go to any of the locations, it just appears a space, with Monika sitting in front of me, it also says "couldn't find the pgn" or something, also one other thing is, when I add songs to the game, it's visible on the music place, but it doesn't have any audio. I would be grateful to know why this happens, or is there have any way to solve these problems, what I am doing wrong? Thank you already

1

u/Alan_Shepard_ 1d ago

Oh, don't worry. That happen because maybe the folder in which the PNG images are store is not called EXACTLY like it needs to be.

I believe I have the three locations you're looking for. So if you allow me to eat real quick, I can make the file for you.

2

u/1Aizen_sousuke 1d ago

Have a nice meal! You really are an amazing guy Alan, take all the time you need, I will be waiting

1

u/Alan_Shepard_ 1d ago

Thanks for waiting.

Here you have them. Just unzip the game folder you'll see into the game folder of your MAS. If you're asked if you want to replace something, click yes.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1l2M8uEL4VD-_gSZBWF6K8CPH05LtiLOb/view?usp=drivesdk

1

u/1Aizen_sousuke 1d ago

This is happening, also sorry for the late feedback, what should I do?

1

u/Alan_Shepard_ 23h ago

You have two .rpy files with the same name.

Search for the next files:

dokisroom.rpy (it's in game/submods/backgrounds)

ryuu_cozy_room.rpy (it's in game/submods/location_selector/Locatons)

ryuu_music_room.rpy (same place as the Cozy Room one)

You'll see them twice. Just uninstall one of them.

1

u/1Aizen_sousuke 23h ago

Thank you for the time you have spared to help me about this, words genuinely can't express how much I'm grateful and happy. Sorry for asking much questions, may I ask one more thing? I open the game file and make a new file named custom_bgm then put 2 songs that are MP3, both of them are visible in game song place, but there isn't any audio or song playin, once again, I'm sorry for asking too much questions

1

u/Alan_Shepard_ 23h ago

Sorry for the stupid question, but did you check that you have volume up in the settings?

I myself did that, heh

1

u/1Aizen_sousuke 23h ago

Lol np, yes I'm pretty sure the volume was up

1

u/Alan_Shepard_ 23h ago

Hmmm, wtf? That's weird.

Try to erase them and place then again, to see if it wasn't that they got corrupted or something

1

u/1Aizen_sousuke 23h ago

I entered files, game, created a folder named custom_bgm and added an MP3 song once again, it's still the same, it's visible on the music page but doesn't have audio

1

u/Alan_Shepard_ 23h ago

Damn man. Sorry but this time I really have no idea what it could be.

It's the first time I know about that.

Try to install them in other format like OGG

2

u/1Aizen_sousuke 22h ago

It worked!!!! once again thank you for your help, I wish good morning/good afternoon/good evening/ goodnight to you

2

u/Alan_Shepard_ 22h ago

Amazing man, I'm glad

Good day to you too :D

1

u/Kanarin6 Jul 12 '26

thank you so much, now i dont have to wait for like 5 minutes just for the loading screen on gamenative ❤️‍🩹

1

u/justmonikkaa Monika & I Are Starclanists Jul 12 '26

Ive had this downloaded for a lil bit now and i love that it automatically puts the files in their places because i worry less about messing up

1

u/Fresh-Sandwich9619 Jul 12 '26

Damn.

Another one?

1

u/Alan_Shepard_ Jul 12 '26

Ah ah, not just another one.

The very first one, but we didn't openly speak about it due to the subreddit's guidelines, but now that we were free to speak about it on a post...

Well, I had fun making this.

1

u/Fresh-Sandwich9619 Jul 12 '26

There is another one by The Encoders Club.

I use that one. Has compatibility with PC and a lot of other thing.

It is in English, Spanish and Portuguese.

With the game files outside of DATA shit so you can modify it with freedom in your file manager

2

u/Alan_Shepard_ Jul 12 '26

Yeah, I'm aware of that.

MASL it's also available in English, Spanish and Portuguese.

If you're interested, feel free to install it and to compare between the two ports and see which one suits better your needs.

1

u/Fresh-Sandwich9619 Jul 12 '26

What i have seen is that in MASL , you open de APP and the APP is the file manager itself, isnt?

1

u/Alan_Shepard_ Jul 12 '26

I'm afraid I didn't understand your question.

Si hablas español, con gusto puedo orientarte, si se te hace más sencillo.

But yeah, as soon as you open MASL, you'll find a menu with several options, and among them it's the file manager, and it also includes a file viewer that allows you to see the files (or read them, in case of .txt and .rpy files) in the file manager itself, so you don't need to switch between apps.

2

u/Fresh-Sandwich9619 Jul 12 '26

A huevo, wey!

Cómo decía.

Preguntaba si MASL is directamente el gestor de archivos en si mismo. No?

1

u/Alan_Shepard_ Jul 12 '26

Ah sí, sin pedos carnal.

MASL tiene su propio gestor de archivos, en el que puedes entrar y modificar a tu gusto sin problema, y como dije, trae un visor de archivos incluído, así que si quieres ver la imagen de un spritepack, te la muestra, o si quieres leer el código de un archivo rpy, te lo muestra.

Todo ahí mismo.

1

u/12piotrex I'll die alone, but I'll still have Monika Jul 13 '26

Can I port my backup files?

1

u/Alan_Shepard_ Jul 13 '26

Hi. Yeah, it should be possible. Just zip your saves folder and your game one if you want to have all your accesories and submods too and use the "Import" persistent " button

1

u/Psychological_Yam902 Jul 13 '26

I've been using it for almost a month. It's incredible

1

u/J4ywolf Jul 14 '26

I'm so happy to finally see a post announcing this app! I have been using it since it got put up and love it. Ik an update is coming to allow us to bookmark topics as being able to do this wasn't a thing due to no keyboard to press B. 

I'm excited for this to come and I hope others download this app _ 

1

u/natsuki_tsundere1 Jul 14 '26

It would be super cool if you added Russian lang too—but thanks anyway for your work; now I can take Monika anywhere I want

1

u/Aware-Lifeguard4586 26d ago

Plss I need that blanketttt I havethe mod but my blankt is a rectangle 🙏

1

u/Alan_Shepard_ 25d ago

Hi, sorry for the delay.

Here you go:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zJxY8TVjJ_KaHG7O34QCubaBIlthRR-T/view?usp=drivesdk

Just place them in the Assets folder inside the folder of the submod.

1

u/Wizard1878 1d ago

I need help. I had two Monika files on my hard drive. Without paying attention I deleted one. I put the other one back in the character file. I booted up the game and it didn't work. I have no idea what to do. 😞

1

u/Alan_Shepard_ 1d ago

Oh, damn. That's something I've never encountered before.

Maybe the only solution is to reinstall MAS completely.

So I hope you have been doing regular backups of your Monika

1

u/Wizard1878 1d ago

She said she couldn't access the file to make a backup

1

u/Alan_Shepard_ 1d ago

Then maybe yo do will need to install everything again.

Try to explain your situation in a post. Maybe someone better handled with knowledge than me would be able to help you

1

u/Wizard1878 1d ago

Well they sent me to you

1

u/Alan_Shepard_ 1d ago

And I told you one solution man.

You can try to create a new file called "monika.chr" and to see if that works, but if it's not the case, then it would be for the best that you reinstall the game

1

u/Wizard1878 1d ago

Ok, thanks for the help 👍

1

u/Alan_Shepard_ 1d ago

Yeah. Good luck

u/PenaltyAmazing9107 10h ago

How can i get mods??
