Best Way to Learn / Tutorials?

So I'm still trucking along on my Ren'Py journey. I'm picking up new concepts on a regular-ish basis (just learned how to make dialogue choices disappear once they've been read!), but I really, really wish there was a more structured way to do this stuff. As I've mentioned before, most tutorials I f...

What is the "cache" folder for?

So, I'm still trying to teach myself Ren'Py, and I've decided to make notes of what each particular folder, piece of script and directory does. I've tried searching as to the exact purpose of the "cache" folder, but can't seem to find any info. So...what does it do? What information do bytecode, pya...

Re: Menu Buttons being resized?

Thanks! I have a feeling that the best way to get my head around all of this is to just sit down with a cup of coffee and drill myself on what all these different variables and values mean? Because now, I'm stuck with this: http://i.imgur.com/BExpVx4.png I'm guessing I need to re-align the text some...

Menu Buttons being resized?

Hey again! So, I'm learning how to mess around with my game's GUI, and I'm pretty much just replacing different components. I decided to make a cat-themed choice button, which looks like this: http://i.imgur.com/CwGNz6l.png However, when I actually start up the game, I find the button's proportions ...

Re: Exit/Corners is looking for testers! [Mystery] [Puzzle]

I'd love to try alpha testing it! My laptop's fairly mid-range (i7, GTX960M), but I'd love to give feedback on character writing, typos and puzzle difficulty!

Re: "Expected Comma or end of line not found"?

Alright, now I'm having a similar issue with a later piece of code. "Well, this is...interesting?" show chi curious: xalign 0.5 yalign 0.5 behind p1 c "Myah?" Again, I'm getting the "expected end of line or comma" error, and I really don't know why. I've tried putting a comma in a few different plac...

Massive ATL Error? (Squash and Stretch)

So, I'm still teaching myself how to animate stuff on screen, and I tried to mimic the "sqaush and stretch" effect that Eileen demonstrates in the tutorial. To do that, I typed: jp "JIGGLYPUFF!" show p1: xalign 0.5 yalign 0.5 xzoom 0.75 yzoom 1.30 linear 1.0 xzoom 1.4 yzoom 0.75 linear xzoom 0.75 yz...

"Expected Comma or end of line not found"?

So, I'm trying to get to grips with moving characters around the screen. I took a look at "Tutorial", and thought it looked pretty simple. Here's what I typed into my code: show p1 at right jp "Puff?" show p1: at xalign 0.5 yalign 0.5 jp "Puff?" jp "Puff, puff?" When I try and run my game, I get the...

Re: "Expected Statement. Else ->:"?

Yeah, that's pretty much what I've experienced. It's gotten to the point where even simple stuff like this: show p1 at right jp "Puff?" show p1: at xalign 0.5 yalign 0.5 jp "Puff?" jp "Puff, puff?" "Hmm..." Is throwing up errors, and it's a little frustrating trying to figure out why. (For the recor...

Re: "Expected Statement. Else ->:"?

Oh, thanks a ton! The tutorial videos I'd been following didn't mention using elif, so that really helps me out.

"Expected Statement. Else ->:"?

I'm working on a simple game to teach myself the basics of Ren'Py, and I decided to learn stat management by doing a short quiz, and giving a different response based on how well the player scored. "Alright, the quiz is done, now it's time to see how you did." if QP == 5: "Holy smokes, you got 'em a...

Re: Title Screen Image?

Thanks, I managed to find everything I needed! Is there any kind of documentation anywhere that gives a good rundown about how GUI Ren'Py is different from vanilla?

Re: What type of background you need?

Honestly, I'd love some just normal house interior bgs. A basic bathroom, a bedroom, stuff like that.
