Re: [Tutorial] Making a Contents page / screen

Would you believe I originally came up with this as a way for the player to see how far they were in the game?
Yes I would believe you. And it's also so great that you came up with this idea!

[Solved] How do you put a stop flag for the chapters list?

I read these two forums here: http://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=17301 and http://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=24821&hilit=chapters+page to make a chapters list. And when I replayed the chapter through the chapters list page, it doesn't stop until you finish the w...

Re: Planning a Story Question?

Usually I plan the ending, or whatever it is I want my reader to understand. Then I concept the universe of the story, and finally start weaving plot. I do that too! Working backwards sometimes make the storyline more realistic because you already know what's the effect and so you just need to find...

Re: Would you play commercial VN without voices?

Whether the voices will be accepted by the public or not does depend on their quality, but I think the consensus is that even at their best, they are not absolutely necessary to the medium. A VN can be good with good ones, or bad ones can ruin the whole experience, but not having any voice acting s...

Re: Would you play commercial VN without voices?

So I guess it all comes down to whether or not the voices are good then?

Re: Planning a Story Question?

I usually do a whole storyboard, to know what I'm doing for each route and then write the dialogue parts for it later. The coding tends to come last for me. So you kind of writer it like a book, then go to the dialogue, then do the coding? You can say that. I use to write stories in a novel format ...

Re: How do you change the font of the save names?

Using Style Inspector it looks like file_picker_extra_info references the text for the date/time stamp, if that's what you need. (You can use the style inspector by hovering over an element and hitting Shift+I). Thank you for your help! But that didn't work for me, mostly because I wasn't sure what...

[Solved] How do you change the font of the save names?

From here: http://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=20720&hilit=change+save+screen I learnt that you can change the font of the buttons with this code: init -2 python: ##The save/load slots. style.large_button_text.font = "AUBREY1__.TTF" But when I tried it never worked.

Re: How to delete saves?

Might I suggest 2014/04/06 though? 06/04/2014 could trip up Americans who use month/date instead of date/month. Y/M/D is pretty universal though.
FileTime(number, format="%Y/%m/%d, %H:%M", empty=_("Empty"))
Ah! That's true! I should use something more universal. Thank you for the suggestion!

Re: How to delete saves?

I did add it under 'screen load_save_slot:' but it didn't work. Then I went and cut the whole part of 'screen load_save_slot:' and put it after 'screen file_picker:' then it worked! Yay! Thank you so much for your help! Also just wondering but does someone know who to change the date format when a s...

Re: How to delete saves?

Don't know if it will really help you or just add to the confusion (haven't tested those codes) but viewtopic.php?f=51&t=25981 I tried it that thread last night, but it was more confusing for me. So I have no ideas where to go to now. If you choose the 'Delete Persistant' option on the main menu, t...

Re: any way to set music volume by default?

Ah okay I'll keep in mind that python: block is more important then!

And about the indentation, it didn't work originally and kept saying that the code wasn't working because of the indentation. So yeah...
