The basic way to do it is: * Put everything you want to be able to change into an own layer. Most of it will be black-and-white "mask" images with transparency. And I mean everything , in particular every single colour shade should have its own layer. This generally means at least two laye...

Being down with some nasty cold and not feeling like programming or writing much, I resorted to some 3D rendering with DAZ Studio. The result is ... rather generic, but I like it enough to show it off. ;) http://i.imgur.com/FnUoh7F.png No postprocess or anything like that, straight from the default ...

Your problem is that renpy's Character class uses global variables for the name when "dynamic=True" is set (which is all that DynamicCharacter class is doing). However, not all is lost. The dynamic string doesn't have to be a global variable name - it can be any expression, as long as Pyth...

That sounded a bit strange so I looked a bit further into it. What I believe you're saying is, I can't change the string, but I can make the variable point to another string. Is that correct? Yes. You can point the function-scope variable to a different string. That does absolutely nothing to the g...

If I could pass by reference that could potentially be another solution without using global variables, but Google seems to suggest that I can't do that with strings. Is that correct? Not really. String in Python are always passed by reference (though actually there's no copying of a reference invo...

I'd suggest adding the "adult" parts (or variants of the scenes) to this additional RPY file as well. This way, even if somebody does set this persistent variable, they still won't have the content , but instead will just get a bunch of errors and crashes because the game is trying to jump...

When testing out their game, does anyone else find it strange that the name box provided doesn't seem to be used? Are you sure you're using the show_two_window character flag? Like so, for example, for your protagonist: # Player character define gamename_me = Character('Me', color="#abcdef&quo...

What Alex said. Basically, declare the "sEileenName" variable to be global at the start of the python function: init python: def DynamicNameChange(sEileenName): global sEileenName sEileenName = "Girl" sTempName = "Eileen" e("Hi. My name is " + sTempName + &quo...

That's basically why you should: name all (composite) images, custom styles, transitions, transforms, layers, labels, variables and so on like "(hopefully unique prefix)_(name)". Have all custom UI layers be invisible per default (use a "(hopefully unique prefix)_(layername)_visible&...

Head trauma is always dangerous. Even if no skin or bones are broken, it can result in internal bleeding inside the brain and permanent damage or death.

As for another area where getting shot is painful, but very seldom fatal or carrying the risk of significant permanent damage, consider a shot to the buttocks from the side. The results might not look pretty though, even after full recovery.

My first instinct would be to rename the class from "Text" into something which is slightly less in danger of creating class naming conflicts ("Text" is rather generic ...). In particular, renpy has a class named renpy.text.text.Text already.

That's basically why you should name all (composite) images, custom styles, transitions, transforms, layers, labels, variables and so on like "(hopefully unique prefix)_(name)". Also: * Have all custom UI layers be invisible per default (use a "(hopefully unique prefix)_(layername)_vi...

Hello all, I'm planning on working on a VN in renpy with a team. Is there a standard/tried and true way to synchronize our renpy code over a repository, or what have you, so we're all looking at the same version, and we can update one another's code easily? If you have a technically-minded member o...
