Character name positioning

Is there a way to control where the character's name appears? If I use the show_two_window argument, character's name appears in its own window on the left, just above the text window, using the same background graphic (only smaller). Is there a way to control this more precisely? For example, I wan...

Yes, this should be our first independent commercial game.

Re: WIP - The Stolen Diamond Ring

Update: WIP title screen

We will probably shuffle the characters and change the menu buttons, but I think this sets the general atmosphere ^_^

Re: [Phase Shift] (WIP+Demo)

Looks Nice ^_^ Keep up the good work! Also, I need to figure out how to mess around with the dialogue box. Any tips there? I know where I can edit it, I just don't know how exactly. :/ Perhaps the dialog box cold be a little narrower on both sides? It's easier to read text if it doesn't stretch acro...

Re: Reasons why you play through/give up on a game?

More cunning would be to give options which are as much as possible non-judgemental - in terms of "that was good, you win", or "that was bad you loose"... But rather as you chose a different path you will live through a slightly different story. I think that was what the developers were aiming for ...

Re: Reasons why you play through/give up on a game?

I just wanted to comment about choices / 'non-linear game play': I think the best thing about multiple endings / branching paths is knowing they are there, not necessarily trying to achieve every one of them. I have played Princess Maker for more than a hundred times and I almost always aim for the ...

Re: WIP - The Stolen Diamond Ring

Update: Some new WIP art for The Stolen Diamond Ring. Development of the ring itself has started. The colors and shading will probably be altered further before making it into the game - we're currently tuning it with the characters and backgrounds (the 3D version is just too realistic). The story i...

Re: WIP - The Stolen Diamond Ring

Happy to hear so many people like mysteries! ^_^ About the backgrounds: They aren't properly implemented yet and won't be for sometime - after I write the final 2 chapters, I'll get back to implementing art. Their current blurry state is basically a placeholder. If you can read and write Japanese we...

Customized.
There will be lots of completely original (and professional looking!) art in the game, though - the ring itself, intro, items etc.
Will be posting more screenshots when the artists allow me to :)

Re: How to make a beeping noise while text is being spelled out

I changed channel="sound" to channel=7 and can actually hear the sound now, but the problem is, it doesn't stop when the text does. It just keeps beeping on and on, until the game ends. So I suppose I should upgrade to the latest Renpy? (I'm a bit worried whether my 1/3 finished game will still work...

Re: How to make a beeping noise while text is being spelled out

I was super happy to see this thread since implementing text sounds is something I wanted to ask about anyway... but for some reason, the code PyTom kindly posted here doesn't work for me :( I just: 1. copied the code into a New Project, 2. placed the sound file in the game directory and changed god...

Re: Guestbook

I posted a question on these forums a while ago, but got so busy with our first visual novel afterwards (it's around 20-30% done) I never did a proper introduction. :oops: I love Ren'Py and these forums! Having struggled with other engines for years (it takes forever to get anything done), I really ...

Re: Need help with default text speed setting

EvilDragon, Guest:
Thanks to both of you for such quick repies.
I found the folder in
C:\Documents and Settings\USER\Application Data\RenPy
deleted "persistant" and now it works. Thank you!

Scout:
I just saw your post, I'll try that too

-edit-
Works! Thank you!
