Re: Ren'Py 6.8.1 Released

Propably, yes. I'm not sure, but renpy seems to utilise both 16:9 and standard 4:3 resolutions, but switching into fullscreen on 16:9 resolutions at 4:3 monitors and the other way around can create various problems. I'll bet if the game video setting would use proper resolution on proper monitors, f...

Re: Movies to the Visual novel

Movie playback is supported by Ren'Py. Try looking in here for more info how to make this done, though it might be a little tricky to add movie as an intro and I'm not sure about how exactly should it be coded. You might also try to look at the splashscreen notes to get it figured out: http://www.re...

Re: Ideas Dump

If we are talking about perception ideas, we might also point out Saya no Uta - one of my favourite VN's. The protagonist has a car accident where both of his parents die and he has a somewhat new type of surgery, which of course saves his life, but after that his senses become twisted and everythin...

Re: When to use pseudonyms and when do you use your real name?

The truth is, we basically use pseydonyms to hide our true indentities, although people that cope with everything seriously use their normal names (for e.g. i use my normal name as an author of works, i create). The other problem is, some of people don't use their real names because they don't want ...

Re: Art Dumpage! Show your art ^^

Damn straight, man! :D I'm a catholic (not practising, though), and somewhat share your thoughts, even if some of them might go wrong with my "catholic" attitude. I'ts a popular trend, that most of media produced nowadays gets caught with publishing problems regarding moral or religious standards. E...

Re: What platform are your running?

Well, I'm afraid of what Microsoft's going to do now. I didn't like Vista (for fooks sake, it's the most evil version of Windows, even more than ME) and I already don't like Windows 7. For me, the XP was so far the best operating system (excluding 2000) made by Microsoft and I'll stick to it as far ...

Re: WIP - Bionic Heart

Nice stuff out there! I may be wrong, but the engine kinda reminds me off the Girlfriend of Steel series. Anyways, Heileen was a great VN and you did a good job on it. I'm expecting the same or even a lot more from this project :) And I like the art, especially the backgorund on the screenshot - it ...

Re: I wonder if we can use cyber lovers in VN?

I remember you were quite active and vocal in the other similar thread that Vatina mentioned. Oh, Jake, you seem to be quite knowledgeable about programming, so do you have any idea of how the cyber lover bot tricks people into believing it is a real person? That remined me one, quite interesting p...

Re: Engrisch

"Jam" may mean also "to tighten", so it's quite obvious what they wanted to say but used wrong word anyways - in my opinion it's not good to use word "jam" in terms like those. They corrected it later to the "law", which is already better :D

Re: I wonder if we can use cyber lovers in VN?

I think I have a vague memory of that thread...but this thread isn't supposed to be the same as that one cause I initially started this thread because I wanted to ask the people that had knowledge of the bot to give an explanation of how the bot manages to trick people into believing it was a real ...

Re: I wonder if we can use cyber lovers in VN?

The kinds of people I see on social networking sites tend not to have many neurons to run together and would give their info to anyone....as indicated by them having 1 billion friends that they don't know. Yeah, propably. But it's an interesting thought you gave there, JQuartz. Im also curious if t...

Re: Whiteness - polish VN project

This idea is bad. Your Polish pride is very cute, too bad it means fuck all in terms of storytelling, and is actually going to have a negative effect on your game because, instead of telling a good story, you want to tell a good story where Poland, of all countries, is not just the setting but a ma...

Re: Doomfest's stuff

Each program has it's own pros and cons, and each was designated to do specific tasks. It's only a matter if their abilities will met your expectations. I have to admit your art is great Doomfest! You have the right style, the anatomy is good and colors are soft and smooth. It wouldn't be a mistake ...

Re: Criticism and Pushing the Envelope

Finally, I found your post (and that of others who have gone before you in similar posts) to be superfluous and overly preachy. This isn't a direct attack on you, but I would appreciate it if someone else is thinking of making the same post again if they'd just shut up and go ahead and show us thei...
