Re: First-person blinking effect?

I know it's been a while since this was posted, but for anyone who ends up here (like I did) I wanted to post what I ended up doing as well. Another option if you like. I wanted to player to see main character blinking a few times over the background (like they're waking up, trying to clear their vi...

Is this really more trouble than it's worth? I'm really stuck over here.

Re: Using ADV and NVL concurrently?

I very frequently used ADV for dialogue and NVL for narration. I usually do it like this... define n = Character(None, kind=nvl) define v = Character('Valemira', color="#ffffff") label start: n "Valemira decided that she couldn't truly be in hell unless she knew it." n "The...

Keeping NVL screen from disappearing when using ADV

Hello, So what I've been wanting to do is basically use NVL mode for narration and ADV mode for character dialogue (EDIT: I'd like to add that I'm trying to keep the NVL screen from disappearing when I switch back to ADV). I know this isn't normally possible, so I've tried to define a pseudo-NVL scr...

Re: A Salem Witch Trial ~ [Short/Mystery/Paranormal/Atmospheric]

Dude, this looks awesome! Personally, I wish there were more non-anime, non-dating-sim style games. Rad trailer by the way. Really nice. Super impressed. Can't wait for the release. It's looking really professional.

Re: Visual Novel Trailers

Honestly, I think you can do a lot with just ATL in Ren'Py. Seriously, I have a project listed as "Dummy for Preview Creation," and if you want to use a lot of short gameplay shots, you can just copy and paste code from your actual game into this. Then use software for capturing gameplay l...

Re: Indentation in NVL mode

I need some help with this, too, actually. For whatever reason, even though I defined the narrator as "define nar = Character(None, kind=nvl)" and tried to define the margins and padding, I'm still getting this weird indent where I guess Ren'Py thinks the character name should go. How do I...

Re: Where is _history_list defined?

It's a store variable, so it's not defined anywhere you'll see in files renpy exposes to you. You can redefine it but that would likely entail making other changes to prevent anything from breaking. Anyway, it's just a list of HistoryEntry objects. You can accomplish what you're attempting by itera...

Re: Tell me how to highlight each phrase of history in its frame?

Hi Andredron. I'm sorry, I'm having a little trouble understanding what you want, but I will try to answer. If you want a frame around every line of dialogue in the history screen, just replace "window" with "frame." See below: screen history(): tag menu predict False use game_me...

Where is _history_list defined? [SOLVED]

Hello, I'd like to change the History screen so that I can separate lines of dialogue into different screens depending on who's talking. So I'd like to define the _history_list as a list of lists (where each list inside _history_list contains a different character's dialogue). But, I have no idea wh...

Movement Radius Screen on top of Tilemap not displaying

Hi, So I've created this tilemap that depicts the inside of a ballroom. What I'd like to do is create a screen overtop of this tilemap that, depending on the given movement radius, places imagebuttons around the main character so that the player can click and move to that spot. However, it's not dis...

Re: SetField Action Not Changing Persistent Variable's Value

Your syntax and everything seems correct though I have not had time to actually throw a test together. The only *niggles* I can think of that might be messing with it are: Is it properly finding the old value? Have you tried SetField( persistent, 'current_size', 100 ) with hard coded value? Or stor...
