Dragoon just completed a commission for me. Very reliable, good communication, very professional. Was a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend his services and work, and if I ever have another project that needs a bit of serious coding I will definitely contact him again. Thanks Dragoon! You are ex...

Nevermind, got lucky and was able to find a random backup in my userdata folder in Windows. Got lucky this time. Lesson learned.

Hey everyone. I was working on my Visual Novel today using the Atom code editor, which was the provided and recommended code editor for Ren'py. I am very good about saving my work, and my script file that I was working on was saved within the last ~2 minutes. However, I had a storm blow through earl...

This is how I am displaying the tooltip: $ tooltip = GetTooltip() if tooltip: nearrect: focus "tooltip" prefer_top True frame: background None xalign 0.5 text "{b}{color=#8A2BE2}[tooltip]" outlines [(2, "#E6E6FA", 0, 0)] A bit more context, and why this is a bit tricky:...

Hello everyone. I've got an Image button on my screen, and when you hover it, it displays a tooltip. The tooltip itself is working properly. However, my problem is that the text of the tooltip is being covered by another image button on the screen. Meaning the text of the tooltip for one button is b...

So just to make sure I understand... The message that steam_api64.dll is missing is expected, and is only a warning. So that means my real problem is the other thing. The executable is sometimes failing to build, and sometimes it builds and then gets auto-deleted by my computer. Any ideas on a worka...

I don't know what I did, but now I can't even get the Build Distributions to work at all for my project. I keep getting the following error in the exception window: -- Full Traceback ------------------------------------------------------------ Full traceback: File "launcher/game/distribute.rpyc...

Hi everyone! I just attempted to create my very first ever build distribution for my Ren'Py VN. I went through the Build Distributions UI in the Ren'Py launcher, it correctly generated a zip file. Then I took the zip file and extracted it into my games folder. Everything up to this point worked prop...

Brilliant! Thank you. That one took just a tad more effort to figure out, but I got it. I even got a nice color I'm happy with. You are very helpful. Thank you!

Oh, actually I just thought of one more question pertaining to tooltips. Sorry for 3 posts in a row. My new question: Is there a way to add an outline to the tooltip text? Depending on the background in my VN, sometimes my tooltip text is a bit difficult to read. If I could put either a white or bla...

Also, I was able to easily revise my code using the documentation and got it working already. Thank you for the help!

Bug is fixed too!

Oh! I didn't realize I was using legacy code. I found how to do that online. I will review the documentation you provided and see if I can get it working with the newer method. Thanks! Side note... does modern RenPy have a built-in mouseover tooltip function (meaning the tooltip appears right at the...

I'm using the built-in tooltip functionality of Ren'Py, and I have a weird (non-critical) bug, where the tooltip is lingering on the screen after I click an in-game button, which opens an in-game window, and when I close the window the tooltip persists. In case the above flow of events is confusing,...

Awesome! Thank you. Quick and simple. Just what I was hoping for.
