Animated Menu Background via ATL

[Elbaer]

Hi!
I'm trying to have multiple images as the background in the menu which change with a simple fade, I've found 2 topics on this problem
(http://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewto ... =8&t=10508 and http://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewto ... f=8&t=9136), but I still can't get it to work.

So this is my code:

options.rpy:

Code: Select all

init -1 python hide:

    image slideshow:
        "images/Menu4.PNG" with dissolve
        pause 3.0
        "images/Menu5.PNG" with dissolve
        pause 3.0
        "images/Menu6.PNG" with dissolve
        pause 3.0
        repeat

    [...]
    mm_root = slideshow

But it tells me:
"invalid syntax image slideshow->:"



However the code works when I use it in the script.rpy file:

Code: Select all

image slideshow:
    "images/Menu4.PNG" with dissolve
    pause 3.0
    "images/Menu5.PNG" with dissolve
    pause 3.0
    "images/Menu4.PNG" with dissolve
    pause 3.0
    repeat

label x:

    show slideshow

So I guess it's because when I try to use it in the menu it's defined within the init-block but I can't place it before the init-block because then it says "slideshow is not defined".

I basically only know java and I have very little knowledge of both python and renpy, so could you guys help me out?

Thanks!
