Installation

You can install the module from PyPI.

$ pip install kkloader

If this doesn't work, try the following command (this may be for Windows users).

$ python -m pip install kkloader

Basic Usage

$ python
>>> from kkloader import KoikatuCharaData # Load the module.
>>> kc = KoikatuCharaData.load("./data/kk_chara.png") # Load character data.
>>> kc["Parameter"]["nickname"] # Print the character's nickname.
'かずのん'
>>> kc["Parameter"]["nickname"] = "chikarin" # Rename the nickname.
>>> kc.save("./kk_chara_modified.png") # Save to `kk_chara_modified.png`.

That's it! :)

List of Classes

• Supports saving and loading:
  • KoikatuCharaData
  • EmocreCharaData
  • HoneycomeCharaData
  • SummerVacationCharaData
  • SummerVacationSaveData
• Supports loading only:
  • KoikatuSaveData
  • EmocreMapData
  • EmocreSceneData

Any class can be imported with from kkloader import KoikatuCharaData and data can be loaded using the .load(filename) method.

Mechanism of the Blockdata

Koikatu character data consists of several block data sections. Each block data contains various character parameters. A typical Koikatsu character data includes the following block data:

name of blockdata	description
Custom	Values for the character's face, body, and hairstyle.
Coordinate	Values for clothes and accessories worn by characters.
Parameter	Values for character's name, birthday, preferences, etc.
Status	Values for clothed states, etc. (Usage in the game is unclear)
About	userID & dataID (added from Koikatu Sunshine)
KKEx	Values used in MOD

You can check which block data is present in blockdata from the KoikatuCharaData object:

>>> kc.blockdata
['Custom', 'Coordinate', 'Parameter', 'Status']

If there is block data in an unknown format, it can be found using unknown_blockdata.

Access to Blockdata

The block data can be accessed either as a member variable of the KoikatuCharaData class or as a dictionary.

>>> kc.Custom
<kkloader.KoikatuCharaData.Custom object at 0x7f406bf18460>
>>> kc["Custom"]
<kkloader.KoikatuCharaData.Custom object at 0x7f406bf18460>

As shown, both lines access the same kc.Custom.

Find Variables

By using the prettify method, the contents of the variables within the data block will be displayed in a more readable format. This is useful for identifying which variables exist.

>>> kc["Custom"].prettify()
{
  "face": {
    "version": "0.0.2",
    "shapeValueFace": [
      ...
    ],
    "headId": 0,
    "skinId": 0,
    "detailId": 0,
    "detailPower": 0.41674190759658813,
    ...

Export to JSON file

from kkloader import KoikatuCharaData

k = KoikatuCharaData.load("./data/kk_chara.png")
k.save_json("data.json") 

data.json

{
  "product_no": 100,
  "header": "\u3010KoiKatuChara\u3011",
  "version": "0.0.0",
  "Custom": {
    "face": {
      "version": "0.0.2",
      "shapeValueFace": [
        0.5403226017951965,
        1.0,
        0.2016129046678543,
        0.0,
        0.22580644488334656,
        0.0,
        0.0,
        0.1794193685054779,
        0.0,
...

If you add include_image=True to the save_json function's arguments, base64-encoded images will be included in the JSON output.

    for n,p in enumerate(c["accessory"]["parts"]):
        if p["id"] == 5:
            k["Coordinate"][i]["accessory"]["parts"][n]["type"] = 120
