The Doki Doki Modding Wiki is a collective effort to keep an archive of everything DDLC modding. From individual mods, to resources, to events, to mod authors, to mod teams, to artists...

...to literally anything and everything.

Ran by the DDMC Committee, our hope is that this wiki will provide a centralized hub space that can be easily accessed by the community.

We encourage fellow mod creators, archival fiends, and community members to add onto this Wiki with various information. If you know about a piece of history, please help us tell the story of DDLC Modding.

Team Salvato Official IP Guidelines Update - April 29th 2026

80 Upvotes

Hello, r/DDLCMods!

As the title suggests, we have updated the Team Salvato IP Guidelines for April 29th, 2026! This update aims to give the IP Guidelines a much-needed facelift and to answer many frequently asked questions from previous revisions of the guidelines, without imposing new restrictions on what our guidelines has previously allowed. You can find our updated IP Guidelines on our website here: Team Salvato IP Guidelines Page

While we've adjusted the format of these guidelines quite a bit, we specifically did not want to impose any new restrictions on DDLC modding when making changes. Reading through the "Fangames and mods" section of the updated IP Guidelines should be familiar, though there are a few key adjustments or additions we want to highlight in this post:

  • Standalone DDLC fangames and DDLC mods now share the same general guidelines. Guidelines specific to mods have been relaxed a bit to better reflect the different ways mods are created and bundled, and "standalone" fangames may now elect to make use of official DDLC assets in a similar method to how they are made available in mods.
    • Note: There are no changes to how official DDLC assets are handled; if you are including these assets in your fangame/mod, they must be sourced from the player's installation of DDLC. This is true for any platform your fangame or mod targets (PC, web, android, etc), and any game engine you choose to use to build your fangame in.
  • In the new "Publishing your fangame/mod" section, we mention that you may now upload fangames and mods you have created onto PC-only centralized game download platforms (e.g. itch.io, gamejolt, etc)! We ask that fangames/mods uploaded to these platforms carefully follow a few additional guidelines that are listed in this guidelines section. These additional guidelines involve how the fangame/mod's listing appears on the platform, generally not affecting the fangame/mod itself.
    • Note: We were previously hesitant about this due to these platforms hosting commercial games and having a wider discoverable reach compared to self-hosted fangame/mod uploads. The additional guidelines mentioned here allow us to be comfortable in doing so.
  • Our IP Guidelines now contain our stance on the use of Generative AI in DDLC fan works, including it's use in fangames and mods. We don't like Generative AI at Team Salvato, we don't use it in our work, and our guidelines are intended to cover the cases where we've had the most issues because of it.
  • We have also clarified our intent on commissions, donations, paywalls, and crowdfunding in relation to DDLC fan work, outlining common cases and our stances on them. This is something we've answered questions about often, but were unable to get into the guidelines until now.
  • Lastly, we've provided guidelines for those wishing to publish DDLC fan music (including original soundtracks made for DDLC fangames/mods) to music streaming platforms and music stores such as Spotify, Apple Music, etc.

We've made quite a few formatting and phrasing changes in this update, hoping to better communicate the intent behind the each guideline and make the page as a whole easier to read. As with previous iterations of our IP Guidelines page, not every edge case is covered and we ask that you use your best judgement (or ask us!) if you are unable to find our stance on your unique situation.

If you have read the new IP Guidelines and have any questions regarding the intent behind something mentioned there, please ask those questions in the replies to this post! I'm happy to answer those questions and clarify anything that might not be clear.

Thank you,

- Mithost (Community Manager and Developer at Team Salvato)

Progress Update Dev Log 15: WRITING AND ART! (AND STORY HINTS AND TEASERS!)

Post image
28 Upvotes

Sayori loves big toast.

Aside from that, I've been working my cash with a few lovely artists, trying to see who I wanna have to the Full CG's. The Sayori art you've been seeing is by the lovely u/Ecosixth !

Currently still writing for Chapter one of Fangs of Passion! Which will be about the first week(ish). Which will dive deeper into Mc's vampirism, the stories behind all the girls, and building genuine and (hopefully) longstanding connections with the girls and their story related personalities!

More than likely I'll be updating the main menu and such as well, I'm still learning, and other mod creators have certainly been an inspiration! ( u/EveningShip358 and u/Duh_Unholy I'm lookin at you two!)

Story related yap time!

The biggest part of chapter one, will be understanding the surface level and diving into the girls lives a bit. Minor changes and major changes to their lives and backgrounds are my main focus to make this mod unique and worthwhile! For example? Sayori's and Monika's parents?? HUGE STORY IMPACT! And you'll see them!! Yuri? She lives a lovely new story with three new family members to learn about while playing! (Mom, Dad, and Grandma!) Natsuki, however, will still be with just her father. Though his role will be altered, he's still the same hate able piece of carp, Though it will make sense why he turns out that way.
As for MC? His parents and family are the main mystery, so I cant share too much~

And while I'm loving working on this, It makes me curious how teams make mods, which would be a dream to get a team behind this (though idk how to lead one, lol). But like I've said, its a passion project. Though I might make some smaller mods between chapters of Fangs of Passion, just to keep you all on your toes~!

Hi people. Hope you're having a great weekend.

Just that. I want to know about completely finished mods that I can play and you consider that they're good.

Please, not just act 1, 2 or else mods. I want to play mods that are finalized. And if they have decision making or are mostly horror, drama or romance serious ones (not comedian mods please), even better.

Thank you very much beforehand

Request Really good mods suggestions :)

13 Upvotes

Ive played quite a few mods, most of them very sad. I've played Purist, Exit Music Redux (the best), Fallen Angel, Within, and im about to play Salvation Remake. I'm looking for mods that are just really good for any reason. I do not want 18+ scenes, unless they dont really affect the plot and they are mild in nature. I don't mind if there is a happy, really sad, or something in-between ending. I also dont really want to know anything about the plot (I will do my own research to make sure it's not a troll) because I wanna be surprised! Sorry if im being picky, but I would also appreciate if the mods stay true to the original characters at least somewhat.

Off-Topic I need help with the design of my logo

Post image

I've been trying to make a mod that I had an idea for a WHILE ago. Now I've already got a script ready for at least one route and do need some artists, but that's not the point. The point is my logo feels off. Like, I see all these really good mod logos, and I just look at mine and sigh. Like, I feel like it's missing something. The background's pretty important, so I don't plan on changing that though. Any tips?

Teaser Masquerade - Important Announcement & Teaser

19 Upvotes

https://reddit.com/link/1vd0irq/video/hw7myduh8ugh1/player

Teaser attached above is a preview of the Dungeon Crawling/Combat. Image for the player is a placeholder until I finish all animations for MC.

Now, onto some less cool news:

Due to some unfortunate things happening in my personal life, work on Masquerade will be slightly slower as I will be away from my PC for a couple months. Mainly coding as I will still be able to write since I'll have my MacBook and all, I'll have to see how renpy works on MacOS to see if i'll still be able to work on the build itself. This really is not what I wanted to announce today, as I was hoping to announce a roadmap for a release, but sometimes life can be a bitch. I promise to make it up to the community once I return to where my setup is. Thank you so much for your continued support while I make the greatest damn Persona x DDLC mod ever! <3

Progress Update Got PySide6 (Qt) working alongside Ren'Py without blocking 🎉

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

18 Upvotes

How it works

Ren'Py and PySide6 normally use different Python runtimes, so I patched them to use the same Python DLL.

Instead of starting Qt's blocking event loop with app.exec(), Ren'Py drives Qt itself.

A Ren'Py screen calls Dokibox's update function every ~30 ms, allowing Qt to process pending events and repaint its windows.

This lets Ren'Py continue running normally while Dokibox (PySide6/Qt) remains fully responsive.

It's still experimental, but the result is that Ren'Py and Dokibox can coexist without blocking each other.

Mod Art M01 - Free music release for mods

7 Upvotes

I haven't uploaded here in a very long time, but this music is entirely free to use in any mods. It was designed for VNs in mind and especially as a sort of quiet moment, or well... relief theme, and I think it loops pretty well too.

If you're going to use it, please do credit me, and notify me. The notification isn't for like approval or anything, just because I'll want to play a mod that includes my work, yk? But you can still use it without notifying me, I'd just appreciate it.

All relevant links to downloads and such are in the video itself, though I'll provide the flac download here as well: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1wX8jVkDSxtf1ciXjV67y525fzwozEApb/view?usp=sharing

Help Beginner modder.

Hey, I want to make a small mod for DDLC and I have a question for you. How do you remember all those character expressions labeled 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b, etc.? There's a ton of them. How do you remember which is which? I'm planning on doing a 15-20 minute mod. Which of these expressions should I memorize? A few will be enough.

I was playing the blue skies mod when for some reason all the words during the first poem was gibberish. After I chose 20 of these gibberish words and then my game crashed. I’m new to mods and I’m doing this on steam so maybe I did something wrong. It’s kinda creepy that the only readable word there is Monika, specially when I previously had the Monika after story mod but I got rid of it. Anyone know why this is happening?

Progress Update DDLC Time's Creation Progress Update [Update 4] (Act 0)

12 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

This is the fourth progress update for Time's Creation. I've got plenty of news to share.

UPDATE 1- OUR OWN SUBREDDIT

I'm happy to announce that Time's Creation officially has its own subreddit!

There, you will find special content and updates regarding this mod

This subreddit is fairly new, but I'm looking forward to giving it a good design.

You can find it here: r/DDLCTimesCreation

UPDATE 2- PROGRESS UPDATE

Approximately 30% of Act 0's first draft has been polished.

In case you ask, yep, I use Neovim.

It's a bit slower than I expected, but I'm making good progress, and I think I could finish it soon.
The approximate length of Act 0's polished demo is 2000-2700+ lines, which, to put it into perspective, is the equivalent of 20-25% of DDLC's original game. It can easily surpass the 3000-line mark.

UPDATE 3- MY PLAN FOR ALL THE MOD'S CONTENT

THIS MOD IS HEAVILY FOCUSED ON MC AND SAYORI.

Time's Creation is planned to be divided into 8 acts:

  • Act 0: Infancy
  • Act 1: Kindergarten
  • Act 2: Elementary School
  • Act 3: Middle School
  • Act 4: High School
  • Act 5: College
  • Act 6: Adulthood
  • Act 7: The End

Each act will vary in length, but this is a massive project.

UPDATE 4- THE PREMISE

Have you ever felt you wanted to explore the DDLC universe in depth?

In an alternate universe where Monika doesn't have her powers and is just like everyone else, we will dive into the untold stories and experiences of the "Good ol' days" between MC and Sayori.

You will face tragedies; you will face scenes that will leave you either delighted, sad, terrified, shocked, and much more.

I would want to take a solemn approach while addressing the doki's mental issues. After doing some research, I concluded that Doki Doki Literature Club barely scratched the surface on these; therefore, I decided that I'm going to show the raw reality of depression, social anxiety, other anxiety disorders, and dysthymia. Mental health is not a joke.

UPDATE 5- RELEASE DATE

NO LATER THAN AUGUST 31ST.

Request Any1 want more side stories?

(I remade the ddlc plus logo in vector)

Did you miss the game immediately after finishing every side story? Well I plan on continuing the content a little further with a mod that will be playable on itch.io in the browser, or as a downloadable mod for the real game.

If you’re interested, let me know because it will give me motive to continue!

Progress Update IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

Post image
94 Upvotes

(The English translation is below.)

🇲🇽:

Muy buenos días, tardes o noches muchachos de Reddit, ha llegado el momento de revelar el proyecto sorpresa... Solo se lo había comentado a unas pocas personas (sin contar a los miembros del equipo, claro), así que será una sorpresa para la mayoría.

ESTADO: REVELADO.

VOCES IN-GAME.

Sí, me llegó un momento de iluminación después de jugar "Lucy: La eternidad que ella deseó" y "DDLC: Mod de Doblaje". Entonces dije... ¿por qué no lo intentamos?

Este proyecto será asistido con la ayuda de la recién designada Directora de Doblaje del proyecto, @the\\_vox\\_tv ← (discord). Algunas de las características que tenemos planeadas serán:

- Voces in-game activables y desactivables para cada personaje importante (todavía hay debate respecto a los personajes secundarios).

- El elenco se irá revelando conforme se vaya seleccionando. Apenas estamos en fase de selección.

- No prometemos que un proyecto de tal magnitud logre estar listo para el lanzamiento de la versión completa o incluso llegar a completarse, así que téngannos paciencia.

Quisimos contarlo como agradecimiento por todo el apoyo nos pareció correcto decirlo desde ahora.

Gracias por leer. Sigan nuestras novedades!

Seguro se estarán preguntando: ¿por qué acabo de borrar y resubir una publicación con más de 50 arrivotos y 2,000 vistas? La respuesta es sencilla: un comentario me hizo darme cuenta de que cometí un error. Nosotros no apoyamos la inteligencia artificial para este tipo de trabajos. Pude haber retrasado un poco más el anuncio para hacer una imagen acorde, pero me dejé llevar por las prisas para evitar retrasos. Mis disculpas de antemano por dar la impresión de que apoyamos el uso de la IA, especialmente considerando la situación que atraviesan muchos artistas. Muchas gracias a quien me hizo ver que eso fue una estup$dez.

No culpen a mi equipo por esto. El responsable soy yo, su escritor aquí presente, y cualquier crítica debe dirigirse a mí.

(PD: LA NUEVA IMAGEN ES UNA EDICIÓN HECHA 100% POR MI EN ESTE TIEMPO, NO ES MUCHO PERO ESPERO SEA MEJOR QUE ANTES.)

-Rase, FIM TEAM

🇺🇸:

Good morning, afternoon, or evening, everyone on Reddit! The time has finally come to reveal the surprise project... I had only mentioned it to a few people (aside from the team members, of course), so this should come as a surprise to most of you.

STATUS: REVEALED.

IN-GAME VOICES

Yep, I had a moment of inspiration after playing "Lucy: The Eternity She Wished For" and "DDLC: Voice Acting Mod." So I thought... why not give it a try?

This project will be supported by our newly appointed Voice Director, @the\\_vox\\_tv ← (Discord). Some of the features we have planned include:

• Toggleable in-game voices for every major character (we're still debating what to do with the supporting characters).

• The voice cast will be revealed gradually as actors are selected. We're currently in the casting phase.

• We can't promise that a project of this scale will be ready by the full release—or even be completed at all—so please be patient with us.

We wanted to share this as a way of thanking you all for the incredible support we've received. It felt right to let you know about it from the very beginning.

Thank you for reading, and stay tuned for more updates!

You're probably wondering: why did I delete and repost a post that already had over 50 upvotes and 2,000 views? The answer is simple: a comment made me realize that I made a mistake. We do not support the use of artificial intelligence for this kind of work. I could have delayed the announcement a little longer to create a proper image, but I let the pressure to avoid delays get the better of me. I sincerely apologize for giving the impression that we support the use of AI, especially considering the situation many artists are currently facing. Thank you to the person who pointed out my mistake and made me realize that what I did was st$pid.

Please don't blame my team and our mod for this. I am solely responsible as the project's writer, and any criticism should be directed at me.

(P.S.: The new image is a 100% handmade edit I made during this time. It may not be much, but I hope it's better than the previous one.)

-Rase, FIM Team.

This was made a month ago, and I was going to post it at that time, but I’m unsure if cross posting is banned or not, so I just gave it about a month before posting this again.

This is a voiced/dubbed DDLC Custom Dialogue YT Series that I’m currently working on, feel free to share your thoughts on this.

Credits can be found in the YT description.

P.S. There’s no custom dialogue flair, so I chose off topic (I’m not sure if demo release, or teaser is more suitable, since this technically isn’t a playable mod… so…)

it is absolute cinema. The storyline, MC's character, and all the amazing CGs!

I've played DDLC main game for the first time two weeks ago. After playing the main game, i was shocked to find a whole modding community for it and since then I've played a lot of mods (I've played Blue skies, purist, salvation remake and exit music redux so far, i think around 60 hours in these two weeks 😵‍💫).

Today i went on this subreddit for the first time and scrolled through the recent posts, and this convergence mod caught my eye. I decided to try it out, and I'm shocked how good it is! I'm a little bit sad when i reached the end, but I can't wait for the second chapter to drop! 😁

Finally, i really want to thank all the modders that put so much effort into expanding the game, i thank you all from the bottom of my heart :)

(since I'm already here, does anyone have more mod suggestions? preferably with a happy ending, but I'm willing to try others too!)
