Re: Fan game: Pokémon Academy Life [School Life][Drama][Roma

Updated demo, description from the original post: Mediafire Download Demo currently covers two "segments," both of which are incomplete at the moment. Vast majority of content is dialogue as the beginning is designed to just introduce a few characters and get the ball rolling. There is no plot per s...

Re: Changing your visual novel's title/name after it's annou

Square Enix changed "Final Fantasy Versus XIII" to "Final Fantasy XV" after five years of development, so I think you're okay on your end.

Re: Somnus [Romance][Fantasy]

Has an Angel Beat-ish feel with the neverending reincarnation in an afterlife world.

Then continued reading and saw the Clannad reference. Sounds like Key material here. No complaints :D

Re: Fan game: Pokémon Academy Life [School Life][Drama][Roma

I'm excited for the new character art! Sprites all include a few alternate poses and 5+ facial expressions each.

Re: Visible yet unselectable choices

You can always try imagemaps with their ground variants. Or maybe I'm personally building up too much of a habit using imagemaps.

Show different variants of an imagemap depending on what the player has accomplished so far.

What would happen if you try to kill a yandere? Or is that paradoxical?

Re: Fan game: Pokémon Academy Life [School Life][Drama][Roma

In the last day plus, I did little to no scenario writing and instead was working on the character database the player will have access to throughout the game. Side menu: http://i.imgur.com/q3FKinR.jpg Here the player can collect character cards (students category shown): http://i.imgur.com/jjZfluK....

Re: Question about Rollbacks

In short, this is one of those features whose value depends on opinion and there's no right answer, so I am inclined to say giving the player less control is not a good idea. If you're worried about it, let the player have the option to turn rollback on or off, so they can have the experience they ...

Re: Ren'Py QuickStart [Gallery, Codex, Scheduler, Tutorials

@daikiraikimi Question. I'm currently working on my own codex and right now I have a navigation menu that has the standard preferences, but also a spot that opens up the codex. Since character information will be different depending on save files and the player's progress, is there a way to disable ...

Re: How to temporarily disable CTC for dialogue?

Thanks, philat, that worked.

I'll use that for now until I can figure out another solution.

Testing it myself, I think it's fine considering the duration isn't so bad (I cut it down to two seconds instead of three so the sound/music fade transitions well).

Re: Fan game: Pokémon Academy Life [School Life][Drama][Roma

I'm not sure if other VNs do this, but what do you guys feel about the player character (protagonist) being on screen as often as the characters he/she interacts with? For example, I know the vast majority of VNs have you looking at other characters through the eyes of the protagonist and characters...

Re: How to temporarily disable CTC for dialogue?

Right, I've tried that and clicking still results in the blank dialogue box if used with renpy.pause.

And without renpy.pause the user just skips ahead anyway as if the wait tag didn't exist. That messes with the sound and music resuming timing, too.

How to temporarily disable CTC for dialogue? [SOLVED]

Situation: Player triggers an event. Music temporarily stops. A sound plays while dialogue shows. I don't want the user to advance the dialogue until the sound completes (~2 seconds). c "\"TEXT.\"" $ renpy.music.set_volume(0.0, delay=0.5, channel="music") play sound "SOUND.mp3" "DIALOGUE!" $ renpy.p...

That looks right. Did you save it in your renpy folder? Then open with the Ren'Py launcher?

^ Unfortunately for some, nope.

Can't rule out old-fashioned bromance, though.
