Re: Ren'Py 8.3 and Ren'Py 7.8 Released

Sorry to bother you, but I really don't understand what's going on... When I launch my project in Ren'Py 8.3.4 and later, hovering and unhovering buttons don't work until I click them, plus my fancy eyes-tracking-the-cursor animation is really slow and freesing, but native "The Question" ...

Re: CTC Icons In Random Places

One issue I'm seeing is you have the .3 pause before you positioning things, which will cause it to jump around.

Re: Renpy In-App Purchasing for Steam

It's not for steam yet, though there should be some functions in the steam module to support it.

Re: Surface.blit much slower in Ren'Py than PyGame

I'd suggest designing your game so you don't need the pygame.draw apis - that's going to be slow. Consider using Ren'Py to scale and recolor images to get what you need. You can use gl_blend_func to implement subtraction. Just realize Ren'Py uses premultiplied alpha, so you'd need to factor that in.

Re: Full Pygame sdl2 works or not in latest renpy?

Neither of those modules is supported under Ren'Py. For use with Ren'Py, you want to use the renpy.music module and the Text displayable.

Re: Surface.blit much slower in Ren'Py than PyGame

Ah, sorry - I've had a lot going on. I'd say you really don't want to work with surfaces. Ren'Py has been doing all its work on the GPU, and so you'll need to push things to the GPU each frame. Telling Ren'Py to render images (which generally uses a cache) and then blitting them to a Render is likel...

Re: Full Pygame sdl2 works or not in latest renpy?

Ren'Py doesn't currently support versions of Python past 3.11 - that's something I've been working on.

Re: Surface.blit much slower in Ren'Py than PyGame

I'd suggest using a Creator Defined Displayable, and see if you can do it there. Ren'Py uses its own graphics system, not Pygame. That being said, Ren'Py is not designed for twitch reflex gameplay - it's an engine designed for visual novels and other choice-based games. So you may be fightingh the e...
