Lemma Soft Forums

Maybe I didn't understand what the problem is.

I posted my solution in another post of this forum: look here.
It contains a link to a zip, that gives you a Ren'Py script and 3 images. One of the images shows an arm, wich I rotated by using RotoZoom. You also can download the zip here.

Yes, I had the same problem, but RotoZoom has no parameter to set the center. It is always the center of the image.

Therefore I enlarged the image to the right, to make RotoZoom move the center to the right.

(I'm not sure if you have to keep the "expression" part, thou... I'm just puttting it there to be safe!) Well, I'm not very experienced in phyton, but in my opinion the expression is not required for this case. Look at PyToms example: jump expression scores[0][1] I guess the syntax of the...

unlikely? Of Course
But it seems, that the missing extensions don't affect anything (in this script )

I don't think, that this is a must! (at least under windows)
I testet the unmodified script from Tsundere Lightning, and I only prepared some images (jpg's and png's without extension)

Hi Tsundere Lightning, I examined your script and ... there is nothing wrong with it. Ok, I put it in the editor, prepared some images and let it run. It works fine except.... the last statement ( show lucy surprised ). This show statement ist useless because the scripts ends, before the user can in...

Yes, with RotoZoom I almost reached the desired result - look at the script below. Maybe you want to look at the wagging hand :wink: , therefore I attached the script with the correponding pics. images+script.zip By the way: I had to fit the picture of the arm too, because RotoZoom alway uses the mi...

The image 'The afterlife story' ist very artistic.

And while we're at it: Maybe there is a possibility to arrange certain menus, and not all menus, because sometimes it would be better to present horizontal menus and sometimes I want to show vertical ones. Therefore I'm looking for a solution, that is outside the options.rpy It can probably be done...

Thanks, I will try it this weekend

Looks very nice and totaly different from the native style in Ren'Py.
Good work!

I attached a zip file with a very short script and 3 images. The script (wich is shown below) moves the hand from the left into the scene and then back. In the middle the hand (in this case the whole arm) should wag, but actually I don't know how to do it. A second problem is, that the user can inte...

layout.grouped_main_menu(x) Thank you for trying it, but other values than x=4 will chop the main-menu. :cry: I'm interested in arranging the normal (hand made) menus but not the main- or game-menu. And while we're at it: Maybe there is a possibility to arrange certain menus, and not all menus, bec...

Ok, but I thought of a Ren'Py method rather than to create an animated image. I guess - no, I hope - there is a method to combine several animations to a single animation.

Just to understand your questions:

1: horizontal menus like the attached image?
2: seems to be clear
3: Do you need a new type of menu?

I am interested in the answers too, so I have no solution for you, sorry
