Placing the Say statement elements (character name, spoken dialogue) at an arbitrary location of my choosing

My questions are: How do I move the elements of the Say statement (character name, spoken text) to an arbitrary location on the screen? Also, how do I specify the size of the statement's bounding box? I also want to reposition the Quick Menu. On top of that, I want to get rid of the transparent box ...

Re: Waiting for keyboard input

Thanks! This is all beyond my ability of course, but it'll be useful should I attempt it.

Waiting for keyboard input

How do I make Ren'Py wait for keyboard input while a graphic is on the screen, then respond to that input when a button is pressed? (for example, moving a character in a platformer.)

How do I place the text of a say statement at an arbitrary location

I'd like to know how to place the text of a say statement at a location of my choosing; I also want to learn how to do the same with names. I don't want to deal with "padding" and all that jazz; I just want to know how to place it and how I could make the bounding box an arbitrary size as ...

I want to make more of these animations, too. I'll stretch Ren'Py to its limit.

Your animation is nice by the way. =D
I'm happy you enjoyed it. Ren'Py truly is versatile; it's amazing what you can do with it.

Re: Time to Smack a Witch! [short film animated with Ren'Py]

It's not a link to youtube at all; when I try to click on it, it try to download a file! One that my computer suspect to be malicious. (of course, I stopped the download, I have no intent to check myself if it's a virus) I hope an administrator will be soon able to check if this is a simple error w...

[LINK FIXED] Time to Smack a Witch! [short film animated with Ren'Py]

This isn't a game; rather, it's a short film I made using Ren'Py as the animation engine. I present to you Time to Smack a Witch! , in which an office lady delves into an abandoned factory and is attacked by a hostile female mage. Enjoy, everyone!

Re: Determining how long it takes to easein and easeout

While I can't say I've solved it, I think it's basically linear except near the beginning (for easeout) or the end (for easein.) I did some animation tests to experiment, and I found that treating it as linear basically gave me the results I wanted.

I could be wrong, but I'll go with this for now.

Re: Determining how long it takes to easein and easeout

Maybe try to combine jumping and landing animation in one animation, this way you can just tell renpy to do all calculations. progress=1.0-math.cos(normalized_time*math.pi/2.0) normalized_time is in 0.0-1.0 range. progress usually same, but can go out of range when needed. After progress calculated...

Re: Determining how long it takes to easein and easeout

You can find formulas in <RenPy folder>/renpy/common/000atl.rpy @renpy.atl_warper def easeout(x): import math return 1.0 - math.cos(x * math.pi / 2.0) @renpy.atl_warper def easein(x): import math return math.cos((1.0 - x) * math.pi / 2.0) Tho there is chance you solving wrong problem. Why at all yo...

Determining how long it takes to easein and easeout

When using easein and easeout, how do you determine how long the sprite will take to reach a specific point? The speed isn't constant, so it would be very tricky. Let's say you want the sprite to cover 160 pixels in 0.5 seconds, easing out. How do I determine the time it would take to cover 32 pixel...

Re: renpy.sound.play() doesn't work on 7.3.2

Honestly, I'm surprised this method worked in version 7. This function has been obsolete for a long time. You can use renpy.music.play() instead. https://renpy.org/doc/html/audio.html#renpy.music.play For example, $ renpy.music.play("example.ogg", channel='sound', loop=None) I tried that ...

renpy.sound.play() doesn't work on 7.3.2

When I try to use renpy.sound.play() in a program, the sound doesn't play at all. The last release I know of where it does work is 7.2.2, so I use that instead. To be specific, renpy.sound.play() fails when I use the <from A to B> syntax to play only part of a sound file. It works just fine in 7.2.2.
