Re: FileTakeScreenshot - Showing screenshot back to player

I am making a photo album right now where the user can take their own screenshots and it will catalogue them, and here is the code I used. . You do need to have the photos variable initialized with "photos = []" in with your other variables. init python: import os from datetime import datetime PHOTO...

Re: Using Images in Show and Scene statements without declaring them in Init.

As long as they are in a subdirectory called "images", Ren'py should find them for you automatically.

Re: InputValue and Editing Values on a Screen

That sounds awesome; I would love to see it when it's done or help test it if you need betas. :-)

Re: Displayable Prefix can't find image

Ohhh, I assumed it took an image just like all the other manipulators, but you are right, it does need a filename. Thank you!

Re: Displayable Prefix can't find image

I don't think so; in the example code given in the documentation, it uses this:

Code: Select all

image eileen big = "big:eileen happy"
...which certainly doesn't look like a filename...

Great code sample! I learned from it, too (and now I'm curious about this "side project"...). :-)

Re: What is the better Editor?

I've been using Atom and it works pretty good, but recently I tried Visual Studio Code and I love it! Integrated git support, code overview, column mode, and someone wrote a Ren'Py syntax highlighter (thanks whoever that was!).

Displayable Prefix can't find image (SOLVED)

OK, so I have an event where you eat too many carrots and your skin turns orange. This is not a main part of the plot, just a side gag, so I thought it would be funny for the character to turn orange just with a simple MatrixColor. The new(ish) Displayable Prefix seems like the perfect fit for this,...

Re: Animated layeredimage without repeat

Do you need an "on show" statement here? Like:

Code: Select all

image enemy1:
	"enemy1.png"
	on show:
		alpha 0.0
		linear 1.0 alpha 1.0

Re: Master volume

This is possible... but it would require some custom GUI code. As a game player, I find it really nice to be able to adjust voice, music, and SFX volumes separately -- sometimes I want to make sure I can hear the voices, or turn them off if they're annoying, or turn off the music if it's really repe...

Thank you; that's exactly what I needed! I always used "if" so I didn't know that you should use "showif"... :-)

Applying a Show transition

I have some buttons for sorting that get shown when the users clicks on a different button. I wanted them to slide in with a fade when they get shown, but I can't get the ATL to do that. It will do on hover and on idle, but no matter what I put in on show it never seems to do it. Here's the ATL code...

Re: Toggle Optional Player Voice Acting in preferences GUI?

You can edit the Preferences menu in screens.rpy. Then you could add in some code like this: vbox: style_prefix "radio" label _("PC Voice") textbutton _("Male") action SetVariable("voice_gender", "male") textbutton _("Female") action SetVariable("voice_gender", "female") Then, in your code, where yo...

Re: Magical Diary: Wolf Hall [Sim/RPG] [BxG/B]

So fun! Even better than the first one. The dungeons were clever and varied, the characters intriguing, and the routes that I played (Barbara and Ellen) both had great pacing, choices, and plot details. I wished there was a little more about the PC's background, home, etc -- when he leaves on break ...

[Public Domain] Animated Rain Overlay Background

Want to make it look like it's raining? I found a lot of rain textures that were not free or didn't work well with animation, so I used this tutorial to make my own! These are 1280x720, but could be resized to other resolutions. Use them in Ren'Py with code like this: image rain: "images/bg/rain1.pn...
