Forum rules


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.

This is just an enthusiastic thank you to Py Tom and his work on this amazing software.

The fact that someone who can barely program (me) can put together a little game AND have it packaged for three different OS's (plus Android) is nothing short of amazing.

Thank you so very much for all your ingenuity and hard work!!!

How about you put up a donation button so we slide some donations to our awesome developer? :o

I agree that Ren'Py is amazing, but so are those gifs. Mind telling me where they're from? :3 (I know the latter is from HIMYM- not sure which season/episode?)

I need to take down the donation note the next time I update the Ren'Py website. I don't need them at the moment. (I won't necessarily rule out sponsorships - of things like server bandwidth - by people making money from Ren'Py, but those are more of a special case.)

Really, the most important thing you can do is to pay it forward. Create things, and make what you create available for others to use, ideally under permissive licenses like Ren'Py's - even if you worry what people will do with the stuff you release under those licenses. As you learn to do things - or figure them out - share what you've learned with the next person.

(This doesn't have to be just restricted to Ren'Py.)

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face in marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming" - Theodore Roosevelt
