Re: Error in Steam but not in build: "Exception: config.perspective is not a known configuration variable."

No, I didn't. Has that caused bugs with Ren'Py before?
My current build with 7.4.4 is working, so I'm not about to go look for bugs in 7.4.8. But it would be good to know if that's a known problem.

Re: Error in Steam but not in build: "Exception: config.perspective is not a known configuration variable."

Hm, I think rolling back to 7.4.4 solved the problem.
Why? I don't know. Reinstalling 7.4.8 didn't work, but 7.4.4 did work, so I suppose there's a bug in there somewhere.

Error in Steam but not in build: "Exception: config.perspective is not a known configuration variable."

I'm trying to update a Ren'Py game on Steam, and I'm seeing this error at launch: I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred. While running game code: File "game/scripts/gui.rpy", line 12, in <module> File "renpy/common/00gui.rpy", line 54, in init Exception: config.perspectiv...

Can you change the Ren'Py screenshot directory to a library folder (e.g. My Documents)?

I'm looking at the documentation for config.screenshot_pattern: https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/config.html?highlight=layer#var-config.screenshot_pattern It says that the save directory for a screenshot can be either an absolute path, or a relative path based on config.renpy_base. Now, the documentat...

Re: Punctuation problem with string translation for menu choices

Phew. I figured it out. Attempting to create a bug report actually helped me, because I realized it wasn't reproducible. The problem was because I had a python function to auto-insert pauses after punctuation, and I completely forgot about it. It works when I modify the original string in the transl...

Re: Punctuation problem with string translation for menu choices

Both the translations are showing the same identifier which seems odd... # game/scripts/day6.rpy:438 I think those should be different. How did you generate the translations? When did you alter the script in comparison to the translating? Have you tried to find which one the first menu choice uses?...

Punctuation problem with string translation for menu choices

I've noticed some odd behavior in Ren'Py's ability to translate menu choices. In particular, it seems to break when there is any punctuation in the choice (besides the closing period). See the following: menu: "Here's a test sentence.": jump asdf1 "Here's a test sentence, do you under...

"Exception: Style 'extra_return' does not exist" when switching language

I'm in the process of setting up a Ren'Py project to support localizations, and I'm getting an error when I switch languages. The language button is implemented normally, like this: textbutton _("Brazilian Portuguese"): action Language("portuguese_br") When I click it, I get this...

Re: Are there any creator that manages to live off of their Visual Novels output? If yes, who?

HuniePop made a lot of money, although that's pretty different from a standard VN. Same with Monster Prom. Pretty sure Christine Love and Love in Space are full-time. Studio Élan makes super polished games that look like they were made by full-time staff, but they also have a sizeable team, so you n...

Yep, I bought the rights from the original composer, but he's off doing other projects right now.

[CLOSED] Seeking musician to transcribe soundtrack by ear

EDIT : Offer closed, I realized a full remake is beyond my scope right now. Sorry! Hey! A few years ago I released a free VN called Sepia Tears , and I'm thinking of selling the soundtrack as DLC on Steam. However, the original project was disorganized to say the least — long story short, none of u...
