Re: Things to do before releasing?

To make NSIS installers, I like to use HM NIS Edit on my Windows partition. It has a wizard feature that guides me through the process of creating an installer. Note that NSIS must be installed for HM NIS Edit to work.

Re: Nevermore

Wintermoon: I'm glad you liked the story in general. I can see why you find the ending frustrating. When I first compiled the story and began voicing it, Ed's test results were never displayed at all, leaving Ed's fate a complete mystery and leaving everything in limbo. Then I had this wacky idea: t...

Re: Planet EVN

I've been toying with the idea of blogging about EVNs. I'm not very familiar with feed aggregators. Could the aggregator take only posts from my WordPress blog that have a certain tag, or would I have to start a separate blog for EVN stuff?

My Heart Becomes Ice Cream

I've created a very short kinetic novel (probably about two minutes in length) called "My Heart Becomes Ice Cream". It's a story that begins thus: "I have an apartment in Astoria with huge windows." icecream-screenshot.jpg I've run into some strange problems with this one: Ren'Py...

I suppose I'll just leave this thread and leave everybody in peace.

Good luck.

Re: Obfuscating Images and Changing Icon for the .exe file

I was referring to the filenames in your script.

Re: Obfuscating Images and Changing Icon for the .exe file

Also, remember to use forward slashes ("/") rather than backward slashes ("\") in filenames.

Re: Obfuscating Images and Changing Icon for the .exe file

No problem at all, as long as you list the proper file extensions when asked for them.

Re: Obfuscating Images and Changing Icon for the .exe file

Remember to keep a backup of your .rpy files! To change the Windows icon, create a Windows icon file (using, name it "icon.ico", and put it in the project's directory (not the directory called "game", but the one that holds it). The current version of Ren'Py will automatically us...

Re: "Pet" project (Needs lots of help, come sign up!)

Honestly, I only signed up to do this because I wanted to write a blatantly metaphorical story about flight and freedom. Is that alright?

Re: "Pet" project (Needs lots of help, come sign up!)

If you're providing the art, I think I'd like to try writing the story for the bird. Expect it to be a tad unconventional, though I'll try to fit it within the parameters provided.

Re: Recreating the flashbulb effect

Line 7 of "demo_transitions.rpy" from the Ren'Py demo:

Code: Select all

    $ flashbulb = Fade(0.2, 0.0, 0.8, color='#fff')
After that code has been run, you can use the "flashbulb" transition thus:

Code: Select all

    scene bg gianttelepathicsquid
    with flashbulb
