Ren'Py defines 'text' as the default ParameterizedTextobject.

If you are using 'text' as a variable in your code to hold your actual credits text string, you are losing the ParameterizedText reference, which might possibly be a problem.

Also is the imagedissolve.zip file up to date? I couldn't make it work on 5.6 unless I modify this line : image black = Solid((0,0,0)) to image black = Solid((0,0,0, 255 )) I'm wondering why I even had that line in there, since black is already a standard definition (as 0,0,0,255). Also, I see that...

It's an interesting design choice to have the game script as XML. Seems to me that it might make an IDE easier to implement, and I see that there plans for an editor. Quite... verbose, though. I would hate to have to type it up in a plain text editor. Branching seems to be like Blade, a menu choice ...

Oh well, too bad for the exe, I guess I will only draw it when I will finish my VN, because there might be some news version up on the way ;) Extracting an icon resource from one exe and inserting it into another is pretty easy with Resource Hacker. Your mp3 screeching is a symptom of the fact that...

    with None
    $ renpy.transition(dissolve)
 
    jump _library_main_menu
Works as intended.

I just tried the same code label main_menu: $ renpy.transition(dissolve) jump _library_main_menu ...in the demo on my linux workstation, and it doesn't crash, although neither does it provide the intended fade-in effect when starting the game, only when jumping to the main menu from the game menu, o...

BTW, the tiny demo I came up with for Motion documentation brings a smile to my face. ;)
All about the cheesy humor.

A full Python install should not be necessary, actually. The various tool batch files call console.exe in the main directory, which can be used to execute any python code that doesn't call library modules that aren't available in Ren'Py. You can call it directly by (for example) in a cmd window, fro...

There actually are CHM viewers available for linux and OS X.

I'll look into authoring after the wiki reference manual is stable.

That would be an SFont with the border added in image processing software.

At a minimum, there will be a new ref exported in html from the wiki pages.

Any interest in having a pdf version suitable for printing?

Or a chm?

Not that we can necessarily promise delivering in any of those other formats, I'm just wondering.

I expect, but those files would overwrite each other on an Windows/NTFS system... Making the whole thing platform-independently case-insensitive may or may not at least highlight the problem on a non-Windows machine, I guess, depending on how you go about it. HFS+, the default filesystem for OS X, ...
