Re: Artists Can't Charge Paypal Surcharges

Yes, this is a much discussed point. Not just among artists, but also retailers and vendors of any kind.

Do check your Paypal TOS, as it will vary depending on the country you open the account in and the situation may be different.

Re: Is Indiegogo a good crowdfunding platform for VN

Do you have any advice in crowdfunding in this platform based on your experience? We are a new team and this is the first game we would launch so I'm kind of nervous, we plan to release a demo soon though so people could see what we already have and could give. There aren't really any big differenc...

Re: Is Indiegogo a good crowdfunding platform for VN

Indiegogo's reputation is not as good as Kickstarter's, but the main consideration for potential backers will still be the product. If you have fans who are interested in what you have to offer, the platform shouldn't be a big hindrance. At the time I crowdfunded my VN, Kickstarter was not available...

Re: I made a website full of creative commons resources

Great site!
Are you considering order options? For example, I'd find it very useful to order the backgrounds by creator to find all the pages of the artists.

Re: Questions regarding Android builds and Google play

You might want to try uninstalling the old version of your game from the Fire 8, just to make sure that there isn't some sort of conflict in signing keys or something like that that would prevent it from installing. That actually did the trick :) Isn't the solution to the developer address thing to...

Questions regarding Android builds and Google play

I am working on a mobile game and am unsure about a few things. I'm at the phase where I am trying to test on actual hardware. One of the devices I am testing on is a Kindle Fire HD 8 from 2016 (6th generation). If I make an android build with the newest Ren'Py version, the game refuses to install. ...

Very cool you're doing this!

I didn't even know creator pages were a feature now. The social linking does not seem to work at the moment, but in the meantime we made this:

Re: Image Location Picker crashes.

Update: Seems the culprit was the number of assets and rendering all the buttons in the image location picker. Making some changes so the location picker uses the folder structure and doesn't have to display a button for every single image asset at the same time is a considerable improvement over wh...

Re: Image Location Picker crashes.

Hm. This one might cast a little light: https://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=37077 Seems it might be an error/loop-condition getting out of whack. If that happens, most apps can grind to a halt, or crash. It's possible it has something to do with that, but ultimately we're just usi...

I'm guessing here, but that seems like an out-of-memory error.
This was my first guess, since it explains the bad lag and framerate everyone gets when using the Image Location Picker. In the case I copied the error above from, the user mentioned they've got 16GB RAM - which should be plenty.

Image Location Picker crashes.

Might be a long shot, since this is probably totally unintended usage of the tools, but maybe someone can tell us more about this: As part of a secret puzzle in our game, we involved some of Ren'Py's developer tools and made them accessible to the player. This includes the image location picker, var...
