Steam Deck: On-screen keyboard causing lockups
Got a weird bug here which dropped my game from Supported to Unsupported on steam deck... I'm using a screen with an Input box to type in the player's name. When this pops up, the on-screen keyboard comes up. (I've applied the 00steam.rpy fix from the nightly builds, so it shouldn't hit the same bug...

Best way to do a fake web browser?
I'd like to make a web browser-esque interface for my game, but I'm running into problems. Ideally I want this to be a generic screen I can call which shows the UI and takes a text string that uses {a}hyperlinks{/a} to jump to different screens. I'm open to other approaches as well but the goal is t...

Re: Epic Game Store now open to self-published indies
Yeah, I don't think the answer is "just remove the achievements." It'd be better to implement them and tie it into the RenPy achievement system, so you can have feature parity across all platforms.

Re: Pop-up screen that hides itself; best practice?
The problem isn't the contents. I changed it to use frame and background like you suggest, but it still randomly breaks if I scroll back and forth using the rollback functionality: show screen laterpopup("Testing!") narrator "Wheee!" narrator "Yahoo!" narrator "Oka...

Pop-up screen that hides itself; best practice?
I'm trying to make notifications that pop up briefly and then hide themselves, without interrupting the gameplay. Things like "You got a point!" or "Item obtained!" or even just a "Hi!" popping up over someone's head. Screen-based displayables, basically. What's the bes...

Re: Modern SpriteManager-based particle effects?
Yes, that's the 2015 code I mentioned. It doesn't use SpriteManager or any modern Renpy code from the last five years. Also it continuously spews particles in a spiral -- I'm looking for a singular burst, like a firework.

Modern SpriteManager-based particle effects?
Hello. I'm looking to make some fireworks for my game, but the problem is that information is pretty thin on the ground regarding the particle systems in Renpy. I already know about SnowBlossom (I'm not looking to make snow, I want to make a burst of sparks from an explosion) and I've seen 2015 code...

Re: Will Ren'Py VNs Become Compatible with Nintendo Switch?
At risk of necroposting, has there been any new development on this? We're really, really hoping to get our VN on as many platforms as possible. Switch is experiencing an indie revolution right now, to the point where it's becoming a defacto game platform for many folks looking for small games -- wh...

Re: SpriteManager and Particle Systems
I've tried that script -- can't quite get the right parameters to make a convincing flame or dust falling, although a single point of chaos looks fine. Hoping for something a bit more documented or flexible, I'm not knowledgable enough about python to make that one do everything. Any ideas about the...

SpriteManager and Particle Systems
I'm trying to make a fairly generic sprite emitter, for things like falling dust, smoke, flames, etc... Problem is I'm not really much of a python coder, so best I've managed is a hackjob version of SnowBlossom, which lets me constrain the starting XPos of the particles so they aren't the full width...
