Re: Ren'Py 7.1.0 Prereleased

Updated to the latest pre-release, again the memory bug. I would really suggest Pytom to put a value like: -Xmx512M in the gradle.properties, since even people with 16/32Gb won't be able to create an APK with higher values (and honestly it doesn't change anything, it's not like the build is slower?)...

Re: Ren'Py 7.1.0 Prereleased

I think I remember before Ren'Py was automatically signing them all with the Android key (android.keystore). I remember in the RAPT bin folder being two different APK, unsigned, and signed (I'm 99% sure of this). I don't think you can publish an unsigned APK on Google Play anyway?

Re: Ren'Py 7.1.0 Prereleased

The apk produced now though are "unsigned". The filenames are like:
com.winterwolves.bionicheartdemo-10208-armeabi-v7a-release-unsigned.apk
while before I think they were correctly signed? I need to sign them manually ? (I don't think) thanks!

Re: Ren'Py 7.1.0 Prereleased

That's interesting :)
FroGlenn did you manage to make the IAP work? I am getting an error message on startup in my game. But I am not using Android studio to publish, just Ren'Py like before.

Re: Ren'Py 7.1.0 Prereleased

A question about this new release, I think some behavior in screens has changed. before I could set variable values directly on the screens, like: $curlabel=XYZ;locID=Map[x][y] and so on. Now, seems that all variables are "local" to the screen. If I want "curlabel" which I change...

Re: Ren'Py 7.1.0 Prereleased

For the heap error found a solution online: Step 1 : Open gradle.properties file in your Android Studio project. Step 2: Find the line in the file: # The setting is particularly useful for tweaking memory settings. org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx256m I put 256 instead of the default value which was 1576-som...

Re: Ren'Py 7.1.0 Prereleased

Interesting. Is there a way to use some thing like "cloud saves" ? I am a total newbie when comes to Android :mrgreen: But probably the most commonly requested feature from the android players was a way to store the savegames "in the cloud". Now I don't know if there's something ...

Re: Am I Being Paid Fairly?

As an employer (I hired many people over the years though I do all the Patreon stuff myself) I can give my opinion. One thing most people forget is how hard was to get there. You see someone making $$$ and think immediately you deserve a cut. Sure you need to be paid fairly. However, to get where th...

Re: RAPT and Android SDK after download Renpy Updates

I kept using the same RAPT directory in the last... maybe 5-6 renpy releases? the only time I had to redownload it was this time because as others said, it really changed everything. I simply copy the rapt folder over a new install, and at least in my case it works fine. (except this time since need...

Re: Ren'Py 7.0 Released

Congrats! I still remember how Ren'Py was 10 years ago, already good compared to other tools to make VN (and also more than VNs!), but now it's really a pleasure to use :)

Re: No one using BMT Micro anymore?

Saw this thread only now :) I was sort of FORCED to move from BMT to itch.io. I must thank the various MS and Apple for making their OSes require codesign. Direct sales were dropping insanely during past years, and I discovered the reason... unless you codesign your app, the OSes will display variou...

Re: a word of warning about itch.io

Today after filling the new tax form, I got the first of the many payments they owed me, so I think everything is solved :)

Re: a word of warning about itch.io

I got a reply by email this morning, looks like the situation should be fixed in a week or so (I presume also for everyone else). Crossing fingers :)
