Hi everyone! I was wondering if it's possible with Renpy's engine to make a text-like dialogue system. I'm trying to achieve a style in which a box of text pops up, with a character sprite to one side of the box and as you press space/click, the dialogue boxes of other characters pop up. The previou...

Are you kidding?? This is extremely helpful, thanks so much for taking the time to share all of this! I have to look over the links you've sent, but so far it's making much more sense.

Hi everyone! I'm new to Ren'py so I know this might seem like a dumb or simple question, but I'm wondering what the best way to organize sprites might be. I've heard that depending on how you define an image, you can create sprite "families" or "groups"? I understand it conceptua...

Hi guys! I was looking around for some text blip sound effects (as in the beepy tone that plays over character dialogue) and since I struggled to find some, I created a few. I figured I might as well share the text blip pack with others. You can find the text blip pack here on Freesounds: https://fr...

Most games made with newer versions of Ren'py don't actually "slow down" or "get laggy" - they only SEEM to do that, because of image or screen responsive-ness. (For lack of a better term.) Ren'py tries to run at the least demanding framerate possible depending on the situation,...

Generally speaking, trying not to do a 10009 thing at the same time is a good idea. Try to do them when needed. for size, trying to combine scene that are the same but in different path is a good idea I guess (also help with typo), either by using call/return rather than jump, or by having a variab...

So I'm new to Ren'py and game development as a whole, but I want my first project to be a relatively big one (my estimate is something like 25,000+ lines of code right now). I've heard about people having issues with larger games slowing down, so I figured I'd be proactive and ask if there's anythin...

Hi everyone! I'm very new to Ren'Py so I'm confused about how and where to code in a family/group of sprite images. I've tried using this page for help ( https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/layeredimage.html#using-an-layered-image ), but honestly I'm at a loss. As it stands right now, I'm testing out how...

First off, I think it's really cool how much you make an effort to make this program easier for us. Thank you! I don't know if it's my laptop causing the gripe, but this problem only ever happens when I use Ren'Py. Sometimes when I highlight text and click elsewhere, the highlighted text will automa...

Hi everyone! I've only been using Ren'Py for a few days, but I've had an issue with the software not opening. Every time I close it and open it later, I get messages that read: renpy.exe - System Error The code execution cannot proceed because SDL2.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix...

Thanks for you help, Alex! The problem is solved.

Hi! I'm testing out timed choices and having trouble, so I figured I'd ask for help. The problem has been that my timed choices aren't activating. They aren't appearing in the launched game and they aren't timing out after the allotted time. I've tried these two methods shown in these links: First I...
