Seeking Background Artist for Fantasy/School VN

Hello! I'm seeking a background artist for a commercial project. The game is set in a Harry Potter style boarding school hidden deep in the center of a fantasy forest. I'm looking to have around 20 backgrounds commissioned, so I'm looking for an artist who is comfortable taking on a large chunk of w...

Re: Warning: Artist "Alvissa" [Resolved].

Thanks for the support all. The artist has just resurfaced and is in the process of trying to make amends with both projects. It thankfully turned out not to be a scam, but instead seems to be personal issues that should have been resolved and communicated before committing to large projects.

Warning: Artist "Alvissa" [Resolved].

Hello everyone, The artist that goes by the name Alvissa here on the forums reached out to me to do work on my game. After an initial exploration which I paid for she pressed me for an advance so that she could replace a broken tablet stylus. I agreed, because it seemed as though she was putting in ...

Re: Slow text in a Screen - Inconsistent behavior

Ah that worked beautifully. Great idea, thank you! : ) For anyone wondering in the future I made a screen that only displayed the text of the chosen item, then I hide that screen and show it on button press. Here's my stripped down script: screen selected_item_info(selected_item): fixed: if selected...

Slow text in a Screen - Inconsistent behavior

Hey all, I have a similar problem to https://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=37922&hilit=slow+text+screen , but the issue is happening inside a screen for me. I'm hoping it's user error on my part. My text declarations are inside a screen and look like this: screen some_screen:...

Re: Text area does't respect width/height if given float val

Nope! No reason, just that its an invisible failure if you do end up using floats which might happen as a result of division if you're placing elements on screen programmatically rather than using exact coordinates. Its good that its in the documentation, but in absence of the documentation there's ...

Text area does't respect width/height if given float values

Hey all, Ran into a little gotcha today, the title says it all - The "area" property of text in a screen won't respect the width and height provided unless the numbers are integers. Does not work ( text will not wrap ): text "Test" area (0, 0, 100.0, 100.0) Does work ( text wraps...

Re: Animated images within screens not always updating.

New findings, if I keep the padding set to zero and use xpos instead of xalign like this nothing moves: init -1: image candle_scroll_3: "images/ui/char_rec_back_scroll.png" xpos 0.0 linear 2.0 xpos 110.0 repeat image candle_scroll_4: "images/ui/char_rec_back_scroll.png" xpos -110...

Re: Animated images within screens not always updating.

You don't have to add them to a window. There isn't any need from the start. The window occupy the entire size of the screen, and create some fixed to contains his childs. So, in a word, you're creating fixed that "Invisibly" become longer in the other side, but are locked inside the wind...

Animated images within screens not always updating.

I have this strange recurring issue with animations within screens. Sometimes the animations run as expected, and sometimes the animations don't do anything as if they only ever received one update. I looked through the boards for an answer but couldn't find anything specifically for this problem. I...

Profiling your Renpygame code for performance.

Hey all, Not sure if this is the right place, but I wanted to post a possibly helpful tidbit if you're using Renpygame to do a complex simulation. If your game is running slow and you want to figure out where most of the time is spent each frame you can use some standard profiling tools called 'cPro...

There is a program called Plays.tv that is pretty popular amongst gamers that automatically records gameplay footage so that clips can be uploade...
