After a longer bug hunting session, I have just discovered some pretty weird behaviour concerning Ren'Py saving/loading: init: $ a=object() $b=object() $b.reference=a will after saving and loading result in <a> and <b.reference> pointing to perfectly identical objects, except that they don't lie at ...

Thanks a lot for the help, as allways. :D The rest I could figure out myself. I finally removed all lambda uses from my code, I am never sure when those will, and when they won't break. Whatever... Anyway, saving (and loading) works again, and I am glad that the error wasn't on my part for once. It'...

Well, I have again gone with the search tool through my code: I only call the "event" method from init code in the files "baseevents.rpy" and "initial_events.rpy", no surprises there. And I never assign the return value of such a method call to an object. So it should b...

I am saying I get this with the stock file "event_dispatcher.rpy", and without instantiating or deriving <evaluate> myself. I am not sure what you mean by "getting a reference from the local variables"? I am using only methods of the class <evaluate> to use the event engine. I am...

First of: I resolved the tooltip problem by turning the stats into buttons. By clicking on them, you can get the information. That's accessible for keyboard-only users too. Now to my current problem: I just tried whether I can save and load properly, and got the following error message upon saving: ...

Sorry to come in again once again with a technical problem. I just got ending 6 (got one other beforehand), and the game crashes for me in the ending sequence: Pygame Parachute Traceback: File "/home/martin/downloads/games/renpy/Metropolitan Blues/renpy/display/core.py", line 702, in event...

Ah, ok, so it's timidity then. I'm going to set it up correctly so I can play Metropolitan Blues with sound. But still: Maybe you should misconfigure your own timidity, and then get Ren'Py to handle the situation properly. Crashing out with a memory violation in an unrelating function is hardly a gr...

Yes, setting this environment variable does let me start the game.
But if it's a problem with the midi library, how comes your demo game crashes as well?

Anyway, if there is anything else I can test for you to actually fix the problem, please let me know.

And thank you for the help, of course

ok, I updated the dependencies of py-game (I am running debian unstable [and from the look of it, you are running the same :D ]). That changed the error message to: Pygame Parachute Traceback: File "/home/martin/downloads/games/renpy/Metropolitan Blues/renpy/loader.py", line 74, in load Fa...

checksums for the files images.rpa and images.rpi are identical with what you posted. When I wrote I switched out the game directory, I mean that after I saw metropolitan blues segfaulting, I renamed its "game" directory to "game_orig", then copied the demo game from Ren'py 4.10 ...

trying to run the gam via "python run_game.py" gives me: Pygame Parachute Traceback: File "/home/martin/downloads/games/renpy/Metropolitan Blues/renpy/display/im.py", line 296, in load Fatal Python error: (pygame parachute) Segmentation Fault Abgebrochen I have Ren'Py running the...

I indeed hadn't thought about how a keyboard user would get at the information.

Thanks for pointing out the oversight! Will do a traditional helpscreen, I think.

Is there a way to show a tooltip when the mouse is hovering over a widget? I don't remember reading about that, and don't know where to look. If there isn't, how about implementing it as a widget property? ("tooltip=<string>") My usecase: I would like to show an explanation of the stat if ...

I have compiled an automated procedure using GIMP, that seems to produce pretty good results. Of course it is not as good as tracing, but just as obviously it is much faster. Steps: 1. Create a new layer, filled with white. 2. Move the white layer behind the original photo (to do so, you.will have t...

I think the path tool in GIMP should be able to do what you want. I haven't worked with it much, but I do know that the paths are saved and loaded again as long as you save in the xcf format. You can seperately show or hide them, just like layers. And all paths stay completely editable. Just use the...
