Re: Mannequin Academy [18+][BL][Omegaverse][Mystery][Drama][Romance]

Hello, thank you very much for your comments and feedback! @ParrotWatcher, Gilbert has no route of his own, but Laurent does. All are based on the characters' personalities, their behavior, way of thinking, attitude towards others... Observe their reactions to your deeds, and try to guess what they'...

Re: Layered Side Image ghosting with dissolve transform

Hm, maybe that's what was meant by "expensive"... I never noticed the loss, but I believe there might be some with larger sprites or side images. Thank you for the valuable information! I guess this thread could be marked as half-solved :D I wonder what caused this effect though, it wasn't...

Re: Mannequin Academy [Visual Novel][18+][BL][Omegaverse][Mystery][Drama][Romance][Story Rich]

Hello everyone! I'd like to introduce a major update in which character routes start. Every route will also have endings to unlock within itself, so there will be a lot more to discover :D Also, this update is for adults only as it deals with possibly upsetting, sensitive themes. The scene ahead has...

Re: Layered Side Image ghosting with dissolve transform

Okay so I solved it by using Flatten() to combine old and new character side images. It doesn't seem to be affecting the performance, but it's described as an expensive operation, so I guess it has to be used with caution. [edit] so the code looks like this: transform change_character(old,new): bloc...

Thanks so much for your kind words! I'm so glad (and proud! :) ) we managed to catch your attention and steer it back to more positive tracks, when it comes to enjoyment of omegaverse. At the beginning I myself wasn't much into omegaverse, precisely for the reason you mention... So, here we are with...

Re: Layered Side Image ghosting with dissolve transform

Hello! I'm having a similar issue (sorry that I'm bumping with no solution :( ), the weirdest thing being that it did work well for some time, the delay was almost nonexistent, and it started with one character. In my case, it's the appearance of a side image that has 3+ layers. There's an illusion ...

Re: How to hide the error message from user when the game crashes?

Hello and thank you for your response. This is a very valid point, it's just that sometimes the game just will crash, for example if the user tries to load an old save while there were changes made before that save in an upgrade or patch that affect the game after save. I tried it with a choice that...

How to hide the error message from user when the game crashes?

Hello! I'm sorry if this was asked or explained somewhere, but I couldn't find any related topic with relevant searches. Is it possible to hide the error message - or create a custom error message - when the game crashes? As of now, when I tested it by playing an actual build (not the Ren'Py project...
