[I wonder] fade and music don't like each other

So, to get a better order into my project, I created a folder for the backgrounds: python early: imgCharPath = 'images' + os.sep + 'characters' + os.sep imgBgPath = 'images' + os.sep + 'backgrounds' + os.sep imgItemPath = 'images' + os.sep + 'items' + os.sep soundPath = 'sounds' + os.sep in options...

Re: [HELP PLEASE!] Change character image mid-sentence?

The only solution I could think of would be a good timed gif animation. This question is rather interesting. Maybe this can help, too: http://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewto ... =8&t=17325
An alternative would be to split it into two dialogs of course.

Re: Debating Java [split]

Yes, you have to worry about less in Python than in Java. So you learn not to worry about things, which is not so good. Algorithms should come after one learned to program, because first you have to get one simple thing into the student's head: The computer does EXACTLY what you tell him to do. That...

Re: Debating Java [split]

Had a discussion with one of my computer science profs who is usually holding the beginners lectures where they teach the students the first programming language (Java at the moment). I was very pleased to hear he totally agrees with me in the point that strong typing is a good thing, as programmer...

Re: Main Menu Image?

mm_root is a global variable, that means you can change it anywhere in the game. To have it changed out of the game, you would need a persistent variable (doesn't changes when a new game is started) and then you do a simple if condition into the options.rpy, depending on the persistent variable. I j...

Re: Main Menu Image?

look into options.rpy:

Code: Select all

        ## The background of the main menu. This can be a color
        ## beginning with '#', or an image filename. The latter
        ## should take up the full height and width of the screen.
        mm_root = "#FDF5E3",
Instead of "#FDF5E3" you write "background.jpg".

@ Biomass: would NetBeans make it any better?

Re: Debating Java [split]

The problem with the libraries is that others need them too. It doesn't name its types a = 0L It kinda does. Boo wouldn't be a script language for me, but I wouldn't like this basically always generic type of variables either. The segmention fault was related to C and C++ of course, that's why I don...

Re: Java: Disable it. Just do it. Now.

Every strongly-typed language ever. No language (with some tiny exceptions) is inherently platform-bound, there are only libraries that make it so. Inherently. But you you have to differ between platforms after all and Java was so generous I didn't had to care at all (except for one key event bug)....

Re: Help Menu buttons

OR you just build a screen that changes a variable, being an index for a string array which stores the texts. Then you add a textbox to the screen and you are done. EDIT: Code example: init python: menuTexts = ["", "Does this work?\nYes it does!", "Library, Ponyville, Equestria"] menuIndex = 0 scree...

Re: Jedit Error

You don't have to use the editor Ren'py delivers, especially not over the Ren'Py GUI. I have currently 2 Ren'pys on my PC and two JEdits, the first as stand-alone and the second over the Ren'Py GUI

Got another platform independent language that does care for types? (Unlike all script languages.) This is a honest question, I don't really know any.

Re: Java: Disable it. Just do it. Now.

I'm a little bit confused. Basically, hackers use Java to access computers. That means, the Java has to be connected with the Internet, right? So, as long as I neither update any Java-running software nor using Java-Applets, I'm safe, right? That would include still running jEdit and continue progra...
