Re: Help needed in running the games! (Microsoft Visual C++)

Do you also have the recent version of Ren'Py on your computer? Some games might require the recent version.

If this doesn't solve the issue, then PyTom will most likely know whats up. Knowing the exact version of your OS, sometimes helps too, especially if its a bug that needs fixing.

Re: Money and Inventory needs help...(solved)

Thanks for posting all of this! This should help me with the other confusion I was having. I get to write this type of code right after I get the functionality of simply selecting an item working. (No questions yet, I'm still taking time to reread everything and process it.)

Re: [Tutorial] Customizing Menus

Thanks! And no, I do not think your tutorial is too long. Sometimes, more is better for newbies! I vote for you to write a comprehensive Screen Language tutorial, especially one that explains the differences between the various options and how to use images with those various options. 8) I always ha...

Re: screen image doesn't show up, plus confused on screen me

I'll try to explain this better. I've sat down and rethought this. The screen is an in-game menu that would only be seen if the player went shopping at any store. This is the original confused post I wrote. What I'm trying to learn how to do, is make a screen image where the player can choose a book...

Re: screen image doesn't show up, plus confused on screen me

Question: Do you have a screens.rpy that has screen choice in it? If so, Ren'Py may be using that one. Once the screen is defined correctly, the menu statement will automatically use it. I do as it turns out. So what do I do to fix it? I don't know which code is correct to get what I'm trying to ac...

Re: screen image doesn't show up, plus confused on screen me

Have you tried putting it here?: screen choice: add "bksv.png" window: By the way, I don't know whether you got this yet, but the choice screen is a screen meant for handling the choice menus that appear at menu statements . So the choice screen appears wherever you have a menu statement ...

Re: screen image doesn't show up, plus confused on screen me

Update: show bksv does NOT work anywhere's I've tried. However, I renamed it to image menu_window = "bksv.png" And, guess what! The menu screen still does not show up! It goes through the dialogue and blackness. :P Why can't someone who knows how to program in Ren'Py change the tutorials t...

Re: screen image doesn't show up, plus confused on screen me

Yes, that does help some. :D Where would I put the show statement to get the image to show up through out the time player is choosing things? This is obviously, PyTom's tutorial code for the "choice screen". init: define j = Character('Jyz', color="#0000ff") image bksv = "bk...

Re: screen image doesn't show up, plus confused on screen me

I was using this page: http://www.renpy.org/doc/html/screens.html However, I'm not really sure which type of screen to use. I know what I want to do, but not how to do it. All I want to do is: 1) Player enters store. 2) Player clicks on bookshelf 3) Player clicks on Book thats a button. 4) Player ch...

Re: The Image Buttons Click Themselves

About this part: ui.imagebutton("up1.PNG", "up1.PNG", clicked = charmup()) I think you want to do this instead (charmup instead of charmup()): ui.imagebutton("up1.PNG", "up1.PNG", clicked = charmup) The clicked parameter takes a callable object. A function na...

screen image doesn't show up, plus confused on screen menu

What is wrong with this code? Image doesn't show up, and what I really want to do, the code doesn't really do. Thanks! rofl More Info: 1) It runs, but bksv never shows up. 2) What I'm trying to learn how to do, is make a screen image where the player can choose a book to buy. What I really want is p...

Re: The Image Buttons Click Themselves

*Sigh.* Hello again. I'm trying to add some image buttons to a character stats page. Character has XP but needs more skills; you click on the little [+] icon next to the desired skill in order to make that skill go up. Since I apparently need a bunch of identical buttons that'll each correspond to ...

Re: Ren'Py 6.12.0 Released

One last question: Which version of Python does Ren'Py use? I find game tutorials are written in python 2.5, my version of python is 2.6 and 3.1, and pygame for my computer uses 2.6 python, and I prefer Ren'Py. And, I'd like to import Python using the same version of Python that Ren'Py uses now. Tha...

Re: Which file allows red hotspots to be changed to not red?

Me be fool. I mean "screen menu" instead of "screen language".

The red hotspots is something PyTom did in his coding. I'd like to minimalize its effect. :D

Which file allows red hotspots to be changed to not red?

I know Ren'Py was set up to make hotspots virtually useless. Think about it. What is the point of a hotspot when they are glaring RED and in your face? Screen menu forces you to know what you are looking at, just like a hotspot does. Why bother? Is there some way to make those silly glaring red hots...
