Ok! I don't know yet if I'll release the game with 6.12 since I still fear some hidden bugs... or you think is the release is stable enough? :D

I wouldn't release it with 6.12 until I actually release 6.12. The problem here is that 6.12 actually fixes a bunch of bugs, so maybe the right thing to do is to wait? I should have another pre-release out tonight.

Okay, I've uploaded 6.12.0c. The changes are:

* Image prediction no longer happens when a movie is playing.
* When config.debug_image_cache is set, output is now sent to log.txt. The format of the output has been improved somewhat.
* GL error checks occur occasionally.
* Ren'Py reports an exception when one occurs after shift+R, rather than having GL go into a weird mode.
* The items parameter to the choice and nvl screens has changed (again; see below).
* Documentation updates, including to the list of incompatible changes.
* There is a new minimum style property; xminimum and yminimum apply to more types of displayables.
* A type in 00screen.rpy was fixed.

The big change was to the choice and nvl screens. The items parameter is now a list of (label, action, chosen) tuples, rather than (label, action) as it was in 6.11.2, or (label, action, button_id, caption_id) from 6.12.0b. The goal behind this was to make it easier to customize menus with chosen buttons - the previous method didn't work well, as it assumed the original menu design. This new one is much more flexible. Sorry if you upgraded and now have to do it again - I'll try to avoid this mistake in the future.

Thanks for the upload! I'm always amazed at how fast you deal with updating for bug fixes!

Unfortunately, I have one more bug to report. =( I just tested the 6.12.0c and it still seems to have the same stuttering while playing video as before.

Can you post up an example game? I can look at it - no promises.

I was trying to use the new system based on screens. This time have a simple example, taken from a NEW PROJECT (so nothing else beside the default template).
I did in options.rpy:
Code:
    #########################################
    ## More customizations can go here.
   
    renpy.register_bmfont("main", 20, filename="main.fnt")
    style.create("sayfont","default")
    style.sayfont.outlines =[(1,"#DFF5")]
    style.sayfont.font = "main"

and then added the style in the say screen in screen.rpy:
Code:
screen say:

    # Defaults for side_image and two_window
    default side_image = None
    default two_window = False

    # Decide if we want to use the one-window or two-window varaint.
    if not two_window:

        # The one window variant.       
        window:
            id "window"

            has vbox:
                style "say_vbox"

            if who:
                text who id "who" style "sayfont"

            text what id "what" style "sayfont"

but I still see the texts using the default Dejavu font. What I'm doing wrong ? is register_bmfont still supported right? :(

The problem here is that the who and what text widgets are getting style properties from both the screen and the Character objects. When that happens, the more-specific character object wins out. So you need to set who_font and what_font in Character, not screen.

(At some point, I'm considering a massive simplification of the Character system, which would deal with this. Right now, there's way too much logic in Characters by default. Trying to do this while keeping backwards compatibility will be a challenge.)

Thanks so much, PyTom!

I made a test project with just the video and put it up at:
http://www.kuroigames.com/temp/test%20project-win32.zip

I hope you can at least tell me if the problem is something I'm doing or if it's something within the Renpy code. I'm kinda new to this whole video creation thing so I'd normally think I was doing something wrong but this video did work fine in version 6.10.2

I've encoded the video at 30fps using the Xvid codec in virtualdub 64bit.

When I play that video file using ffmpeg, I got a number of errors that make it look like the streams were somehow corrupt. (Alternatively, there could be a problem with ffmpeg, I guess - I'm not really qualified to fix it.)

I was able to get a working file by using avidemux2 ( http://fixounet.free.fr/avidemux/ ). I opened the original AVI file, and then:

* Changed the format to "AVI"
* Changed the video to "MPEG-4 ASP (avcodec)"
* Changed the audio to "MP3 (lame)"
* Saved a new AVI file.

That seems to work for me.

What is the way of using chosen of choice? I wasn't able to get the description on the manual(and there's nothing about chosen on the example of the choice screen) so couldn't use it.

Chosen is just a boolean. You can use it (for example) to change the style that a menu choice is displayed as.

I've released 6.12.0d. This fixes several minor bugs that I discovered when porting Moonlight Walks to Android. It also adds prediction of the main menu - the main menu screen will be predicted while the splashscreen is displayed.

I haven't had any bug reports that turned out to be actual bugs in a while. So if you have any, please report them ASAP - I'd like to release 6.12.0 pretty soon, if there's no more feedback to be had from the pre-release.

Ren'Py Version: Ren'Py 6.12.0c
I think it is because I enabled Developer mode as I never got this error before. The game is @CameliaGirls development version. I was going to do some alterations to the menu but I haven't started yet.

I don't think this is a Ren'Py bug. I don't use variable names in that style,. and the problem is occurring in your menus.rpy file.
