I'd recommend Notepad , Windows has it by default. 1. Create a new empty file 2. Write your code (via notepad for instance) 3. Rename it anything.rpy And you have your .rpy file ready to be placed in your directory. Though maybe you'd want to write "init -1 python" so that your code is rea...

Using these short holidays to finish the request list from this summer.

* Music box : Listen here "Innocence and childish happiness"
* Piano & Violin : Listen here "Emptiness, revelation, joy with regret, determination, secret desire for hope" (yeah, just that)

Incidentally, that's about the price you pay for your average novel. Hmm but a VN have also (at least) graphic, music and programmation which requires a certain budget, so in this logic it would mean... 4x the price of a novel ? ahah Price depends totally on the market yeah, with no specific market...

For small project it would surely be welcome : look at CC free music that everybody use, even for larger projects sometimes ! Someone mentionned how free sprites wouldn't be used a lot because people need a large a cast and want to have all the sprites from the same style.. but it's the same with fr...

Hmm.. all of that is especially frowned upon in our actual society (speaking of common occidental one). It's understandable since it's a really delicate subject. Though I really saw too much people becoming mad at anything more or less related to the thing, which is unfortunate. Taboos rarely make t...

Okay, but making a game, when one have to choose between a 1.5mo PNG or a 300ko JPG as background without notable difference to the eye... that's not even about a choice, it's for the sake of the user. Same goes with music - as musician I feel bad to say it and audiophiles will hate it, but 192~224k...

Also something that could help some game creators (maybe) : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_resolution#Computer_monitors People having less than 1024x768 are under 5% , and only 1% use 800x600. That's speaking of internet users. Stats on Steam users (more towarded to games, so) are probably mor...

Some people still use 800x600, probably (no offense) like some heritage from the old time, but it's becoming really outdated, honnestly. Personnaly I see low-res as a bad point, as a reader. In windows mode it's too small to enjoy, in fullscreen it looks pixelated. Some said that with heavy animatio...

Passing by to say that we're still welcoming composers ! Being one myself, I can say DD is a nice place for music creators, since each module have its special world, mood, ambience, so anyone can find the fitting module for him. A set I made recently, as example > http://soundcloud.com/ziassan-1/set...

Hiddle > Around page 3 it's said it will be commercial - but eh, thanks to that there will be things like voice acting, rpg battle system in-game etc. so it's worth it (and more chance for the project to be completed ahah). Looking forward to see this thread in the normal WIP section, it's a bit dar...

Hmm just as info, no, actually. These free resources you speak of are mostly what sounds "not serious" as you said. Depending on the instrument, good & free samples/VST happen to... just not exist. Or well, very rare/hard to get - and they need not a few tweaks before getting goods (of...

Music isn't always necessary, exactly like sprites or backgrounds aren't totally necessary. You can imagine a VN/KN/SN without sprites or background, after all. But it's harder to make a good one. Music carrie the story. I'd personnaly rather play a VN without some art than without music, but it's s...

Yes, was a bit taken by the end of holidays, but one more song done. Your deadline being more around december I finished tracks for people who needed it more quickly, I hope you understand. jeje > "dark piano track" https://dl.dropbox.com/u/2379296/Crimson%20Moonlight.ogg I had one person ...

In terms of payment, I am fairly broke, so there won't be a lot to offer. I can do a variety of things, such as offer my writing skills out in exchange for some work, or even do an art trade. My style is more American Comic Books, and I take forever to draw and my muse is fickle, which are the thre...

Interesting. There are some composers around there already, but usually the instruments are virtual... you seem to be more a performer than a composer, right ? When you'll have your violin, it'd be good to record some samples to show how it sounds, some composers would probably want to work with you.
