Basically, the original code uses Ren'Py's "textbutton" function. I swapped that out with an imagemap and hotspots, Just curious: Would it also be possible to use an imagebutton for that? Uh, I didn't even know Ren'Py had an imagebutton option. I'm sure that would've saved a few minutes o...

Wanted to change the textbutton to an image of a phone that changes screen color and shows the number of new mail when a message is received. I'm sure this isn't the best way to do this, but for those wanting to do similar here's how to (images included): screen my_valuee: text "[v] New" x...

It is, but different positions call for different heights/widths and the system I'm using to make sprites exports them with tons of "whitespace" so cropping isn't the same everytime. If I resize them now, they will all end up still looking different creating that "layered or stacked&q...

I'm trying to find a solution to bundle a set of sprites to one character and display them without them showing layering as if regular images just because they have slightly different widths/heights. It's really holding me back on development at this point, because there are a lot of character sprit...

Hello everyone. Recently, I've tried using a ConditionSwitch to give my characters multiple layers so they aren't just "over-lapping images" on the screen like they have been for a while. So I took some code from the demonstration on it and changed it to just the sprites as different emoti...

Thanks for the help everyone, I managed to do what I was aiming for

When you were editing the code, did you try something like: screen my_value: text "[v]" rotate 45 ? I just did now, but the rotate thing is still seen as an unknown argument to the string, so I removed it for the time being and now this is my current error: File "renpy/common/00defau...

Not tested, but try to do it the way similar to imagemap save slots made, something like screen my_value: text v rotate 45 screen my_stat_imgmap: idle "img.png" hover "img.png" hotspot (100, 10, 50, 50) action None: use my_value(v=strength_var) hotspot (100, 70, 50, 50) action N...

I decided to add some sort of 'skills HUD' to the top left of the screen of my game, and it is basically an image with the words Strength: Charisma: and Study:. I have it placed in the area I want it on the screen, the problem I'm facing is adding the values next to the right words. Basically, I wan...

Python and renpy both use UTF-8 as default. But that doesn't mean the text editor you use does. Look in the options of your text editor to see if you find and set the 'default encoding' to UTF-8. If not you can either use a different editor, you can use 'alt codes' where you hold alt and type the u...

I've been searching a lot and a lot on this, and re-read the documents but I'm not too sure what to do at this moment. Basically, as the title says, I want to know specifically how Ren'Py goes about to include 'special characters' in dialogue? Things like the yen (¥) symbol, Euro (€), etc. Being a w...

Thanks for the answer PyTom, now that you mention it using simple if statements, flags, etc. would be easier. I don't know why I didn't think of something like that earlier o.o

I'm not confirmed on this but; I believe the renpy.seen_label() function uses persistent data. When I test a little set up, it seems to strictly work as is. The problem with this is that it happens even when you make a new game. Is there any sort of way to not have persistent data registered with th...

I believe if the gameplay always contributes either negative or positive effects to shifts and possibilities in the story line; than it's perfect for it's VN. Though, I think it get's bad with games that throw it in just for the sake of well...throwing it in. I don't want to be playing a Visual Nove...
