There really is a lot of data that I need stored, to the level that having all of it at memory all of the time feels less than ideal, even if I haven't noticed any slowdowns. Still wondering what kind of data we are talking about and how memory this data takes up right now. For a mobile variant, hu...

Anyone knows where can I read more about Ren'Py resources usage? Or if anyone could point me into how I could measure it myself that would be awesome. Hitting F4 when inside your game gives you a little bit of information regarding memory usage of textures. Whatever you mean by measuring usage, you...

renpy.music.get_duration()

"Returns 0.0 if no file is playing on channel, or the duration is unknown. Some formats - notably MP3 - do not include duration information in a format Ren'Py can access."

Hello. I recently got into RenPy and started working on a visual novel. I'm working on a character creator where you will choose colors to define other body parts. By that, I mean selecting a "blond" hair color and having the hair and eyelashes match. The option buttons for the eyes or ha...

I already know how to do this, so I don't really need advice on implementing it, I'm just wondering if it's necessary. Because doing this would require a lot of work reorganizing my data structures and the references to them, and I don't want to do it if it turns out my worries about memory are ove...

I would like to write a series of buttons that must be pressed in a certain order, but the second and subsequent buttons do not always accept the variable changed when the first button is clicked, although the clicks are processed. How could this be fixed or implemented in a different form? There a...

Edited: oh, one more question: with this code, will I be able to set things like input length, allowed characters and so on? Yes, Renpy handles all of this as part of the renpy.input() function, so you can just pass the usual keyword arguments like "length", "exclude", "mas...

Inside the Renpy launcher you have the "preferences" -> "General" -> "Projects Directory". You should be able to insert your directory there, for example /home/user/myprojects How do I insert the directory though? General -> Projects Directory is where I was when the e...

Also interested since bublé came up.... I should check out the info on this... Have you found a solution yet? I would really like to know! Normally, the "input" screen is doing the work here. You can find it inside <screens.rpy>. So depending on what you want, you either change that scree...

Is there perhaps a way to automate this, or change the choice screen in some way to do this automatically? I came up with a solution. Assuming we have a 2 second fadeout delay (just to see that it works): # create a fade effect with the showif keyword transform choice_fade: alpha 0.0 on appear: lin...

I want to have different looking scroll bars depending on what screen is seen. I know that you can change the images in the gui folder but I want to use multiple different images, how do I do that in a frame inside a screen? I don't think Renpy allows for different scrollbar styles, since it only r...

Not necessarily, some people call "translation patch" or "translation mod" for renpy games. You just create a file with the extension .rpy and write the code in it. Alright, I now get what you are talking about. Actually modding a game, by inserting a .rpy file and therefore mak...

Hm I see. Thanks for the response, chief. I do have a question, tho; screen collapsable_list(title, items): When I define screens, I have never used that parenthesis, and I can't figure what it is supposed to be doing here. If it's not too much trouble, could you give me a bit of an explanation/som...
