Re: Label as main menu background

a) Use timers that change varable controlling current image.
b) CDD which change rendered image based on elapsed time
c) Potentially ATL animation which has a funtcion statement changing child of transform.

Re: Label as main menu background

If main_menu label exist, it will be executed, instead of showing the main menu screen. Note that you will be responsible for shwing and handling all menu screens in this case.
An alternative approach is to convert you code into a screen and use that instead.

Re: Strategy for distribution of large games (> 5GB)?

We regularly get over 1,200 downloads for each released version, so transfer charges are a definite concern. We already got hit with a (extremely) huge fee when distributing files using Gofile one release. We're using anonymous transfers now, but it involves manually downloading every file occasion...

Re: Layeredimage dynamic image name. NameError

yea, I tried it, but get attribute error. NoneType have no attribute 'style'. looks like it's cant find right image or something like that. That is another problem and is likely one you should be solving instead. I'm actually curious now about how to refactor the class to make getters for every fie...

Re: Strategy for distribution of large games (> 5GB)?

You can rent a cheap VPS with 1TB of storage space and 1Gb/s connection at 10€/month. Usually you get severals Tb of data for free and then you have to pay 1-3€ per Tb (which in your case is about 120 downloads). Another option is to use peer-to-peer distribution and all the distributed power of Bit...

Re: Half a second of a checkerboard screen before the video starts...

You can use a start_image parameter to provide an image which is shown after scene statement executesm but before video starts playing. If you use first frame of your video as that image, it might look better. Another way is only remove old images after movie starts playing.

Re: Half a second of a checkerboard screen before the video starts...

What you wrote is equivalent to: # scene something is just a shortcut for writing both scene and show statement. scene # clears screen show movie # shows movie WHEN IT LOADS AND DECODES THE FIRST FRAME. Which might take time. You can use scene black fowwlowed by show movie to show black screen befor...

Re: Need to know how to put text in drag image

https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/drag_drop.html#examples The first example has two displayables within a window. In your case I suspect it will look something liek: # . . . draggroup: drag: fixed: fit_first True add "some image" text "Some Image" align (0.5, 0.5)

Re: How to change a variable in a animation using a imagebutton?

In short, it isn't possible. TransitionAnimation oficially does not support changing its parameters once created. In addition, TransitionAnimation itself is not supported anymore and its entry in documentation is deleted.

Re: Why Are All Groups Being Affected in My LayeredImage?

when offset is applied to inner image, it partially moves outside of image boundaries, changing them. This makes whole image be repositioned. For example if you aligned your image around 0.5, 0.5, after first line of animation it will move 2 pixels to the bottom-left.

Bar takes thumb property: https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/style_pr ... erty-thumb
It is a displayable which is used for, well, bar thumb. You can define any displayable and use it there.
