Re: Get that thing off your chest... Now...

Couple things: - Because my cell number is so easy to remember I tend to get mass amounts of random calls and text messages from unknown people. As a result I don't answer my phone unless it's someone I recognize. I just got an angry random text message because I'm not answering his calls. Not my pr...

Re: What motivates you to make a VN?

What motivates me? * I have a story to tell, something that means much to me. * I get this great concept in my head and feel that it needs to come alive :) * I need more experience creating VNs! How to keep going until the end? Well, of course you're going to encounter problems in the development pr...

Re: Get that thing off your chest... Now...

I just learnt today that a student adviser at my old school died last month. I was really close to said adviser, and I was looking forward to going to see her and talk about uni ect. Sorry to hear... my condolences. Reminds me during my time at my first college, one of the professors died in a car ...

Re: Bar[BXG][SliceofLife]

A little suggestion, maybe give the bar a name, and title your game after that. It's what I did for a project I'm currently working on (although it's not a bar :) ). e.g. "Moonlight Pub"... or something. Otherwise, it sounds interesting. Being a sucker for black-haired girls with glasses, I think I ...

Re: Meal ideas? (Lunch and Dinner)

How about making a turkey sub sandwich? With your standard lettuce + tomato, red onions, provolone cheese, mayo, etc... and such on a wheat bread. And fruit yogurt as a healthy dessert.

It's what I had today ^^

Re: Difficulties with tittles and Characters...

For me it's actually the opposite. I like to make the characters first and then make the story around them. And I've always been good at coming up with titles for stuff. Maybe there should be a "what should my title be" thread to help with that. This. Although, I have a habit of recycling my charac...

Re: Guestbook

I thought I'd say hi again since I haven't posted in quite a while. :) Been having setbacks lately in my VN, Memoria. But I've been working on a smaller VN, Cafe Memoria, since I haven't released a VN in such a long time. Hopefully I can find some help here when I need it for that project, and perha...

Re: Get that thing off your chest... Now...

I've been working on my VN, Memoria, for quite a looooong time already, but artist issues are keeping it from being a reality. :( On the plus side, I AM working on a smaller side VN. And... found out that it was Norton Internet Security that's been BSODing my relatively new computer (6 months)... ca...

Re: Planet EVN

Question: I updated my blog and I realized I needed to make some edits. Once a post is listed on Planet EVN and I do further edits to said post, do the edits show up on EVN? Just curious. i.e. I post an entry to my Project Memoria blog, entry is listed on EVN, then I edit the post, EVN shows the pos...

Re: How to fix the menu when changing the window size

Assuming you have developer mode to true, press shift + D in your game and go into the style hierarchy. What you want to look for is anything with "pref" in its name. Then add the style you want to change to your options.rpy file, and add .xminimum or .ymaximum to it. e.g. style.prefs_frame_box.xmin...

[Solved] Character name as image

After ripping some Japanese VN's graphics, I noticed several games display the speaking character's name as an image as opposed to text. Is it possible for Ren'Py to replace the character's name in text with an image? I'm trying something like this: $ m = Character("Mikaela", what_prefix="\"", what_...

Re: WTF, Namco

I actually liked the ToS sequel 8) Yeah, it had its flaws, and I wanted to slap Marta and Emil, but it was an enjoyable play. Yeah, it's underrated, IMO. Though, it's too bad you can't level up the original ToS characters; I really didn't like the idea of catching monsters and raising them and such...

Re: What songs would you want to have in your VN?

Probably the Tales of Graces (videogame) or Seitokai no Ichizon's (anime series) opening. Though, most likely the latter for my VN, Memoria; I'd use in a heartbeat, but can't ^_^;
