Ask questions about one topic per thread, and use a descriptive subject. "NotImplemented error in script.rpy" is a good subject, "Tom's problems" is not. Remember to include all of traceback.txt or error.txt when reporting a problem, as well as the relevant lines of script. Use the [code] tag to format scripts.

Hi all, I finally got around to trying to make a Ren'Py game. Anyway im a total noob, I read a bunch of tutorials today then decided to try to make some background scenes. So my question is; I have some background images that are in widescreen 16:9 aspect ratio and on the big side 1500x843, and when I tested the game it didn't show the whole background image (just lower right side i think) and was still in 4:3 aspect ratio. Can Ren'py not support widescreen ratio or am i just missing a step? This is really the only thing i'm stuck on at the moment (besides my grammar lol, i'm very rusty at writing) ill try and read up more tutorials tomorrow.

thanks in advance :)

You adjust the size of the screen in options.rpy. Look for config.screen_width and config.screen_height.

EDIT Yay i got side images to work :D

Code:
image side c = ("captain side normal.png")
define c = Character(show_side_image=Image("captain side normal.png", xalign=1.0, yalign=1.0))


picture is way to big but i can just resize it :D . do i just put "captain" in
Code:
define c = Character("captain" show_side_image=Image("captain side normal.png", xalign=1.0, yalign=1.0))
to get his name to still show
