Ren'Py vs KAG/KAGEX
Ren'Py is nice because there are is a very large amount of resources in English on how to use it. There are plans for Live2D support but it's not finished. Ren'Py is written in the Python 2 language. Ren'Py uses pygame_sdl2 as the core. Documentation is available in English, Japanese, and Simplified...

Re: Pain points of current VN engines? What makes an engine attractive to artists?
It just depends on how much you want to outsource. There are commercial companies that will do the engine and porting work for you.

Re: Ren'Py homebrew port to Nintendo Switch
Possible reasoning for OOM error: Heap size is randomized, so in one circumstance, there may be plenty of memory, while in another circumstance, there may not be enough memory.
How did I determine this? Here is some example code: https://gist.github.com/uyjulian/df5e5c ... 9f0358ac0a

Re: Ren'Py homebrew port to Nintendo Switch
I could probably make it run in less than 500MB by setting RENPY_LESS_MEMORY. However, there is a memory leak that causes out of memory errors, even if you use small assets. I already got Python compiling and linking on the Vita. I'll probably just use software rendering, since VitaGL has some featu...

Re: Ren'Py homebrew port to Nintendo Switch
libnx v3.0.0 was released.
I'm going to see if the out of memory issue persists.

Re: Ren'Py homebrew port to Nintendo Switch
A PlayStation Vita port won't happen just yet. I need to fix the out of memory errors first by inhibiting memory growth (by manually deleting objects instead of garbage collection), and also implementing an SDL_Renderer based render backend for fast drawing performance with small size. Nintendo Swit...

Re: Raspberry Pi Portable VN console build
The next Ren'Py version may fix the segmentation fault error due to memory allocation failure.
A backtrace from gdb would be helpful.

Re: Ren'Py homebrew port to Nintendo Switch
I finally got myself a PlayStation Vita, so I'll be doing a port there also.

Version 1.6 has been released. Please view the changelog and try out the binaries. https://github.com/uyjulian/renpy-switch/releases/tag/v1.6 This will probably be the last release for a while unless show-stopping bugs show up. If nvdec gets implemented, I'll release another version with hardware vi...

Re: Ren'Py homebrew port to Nintendo Switch
Good news: The error causing a data abort (due to a memory allocation failure) has been fixed and will be in the next release.
Bad news: Ren'Py has a memory leak, so you will need to roll back, save the game, restart the game, and load the game.
