Re: Placing an opening before the main menu (solved)

Ren'py can play video, but it's not a video player primarily, so it can be pretty slow. ^^; I think especially if your video is heavy, but I'm not quite sure how much size difference will influence it. I use animation done within ren'py instead of video, to get around the slow video issues myself. ^^;

Re: Stop Text at certain place?

In your options.rpy, you'll find an area where you can edit the margins of your textbox, so that the text only goes as far as where you want. :)

Re: Placing an opening before the main menu

Just put the video in your splashcreen. ^^ (The label used for opening movies etc., which automatically loads before the main menu.)

Re: How to play a huge video

No, I don't mean fangames. ^^ Fan-games are fine, there are plenty of them in the forum. It's just that OP was talking about putting a video of an entire episode of something in his/her game, and I thought it sounded like he/she might be talking about putting an episode of an existing series in it, ...

Re: How to play a huge video

Unless you animated/filmed an entire episode by yourself, or somehow commissioned/licensed something animated or filmed by someone else, do you mean playing an episode of an existing series, in your game? Because if that's the case, is it licensed material that belongs to a company and that you don'...

Re: Creating custom transitions using mask image [Solved]

Uhm, if either of you could share the code to get such things smooth, I'd be so glad to have it too. ;___; Like I said, I love such transitions, have been trying to do it for a while, and don't know how to do it quite right. :( So uhm, please share that knowledge so the rest of us forum dwellers can...

Re: Creating custom transitions using mask image

While it is possible to do something like that with the following code, the result is unfortunately nowhere near the gorgeous example you gave. :( $ customdissolve01 = ImageDissolve(im.Tile("TransMask.jpg"), 2.0, 1) I'm hoping we can find a better way to do it. I also love transitions with...

Re: If statement for background

I meant being specific about the blinking you mentioned. I made a new test game just now and I don't get any blinking, so I was wondering what you meant. Could your images be loading slowly maybe? Are they heavy? In any case, you might want to try loading your images with a transition so it's softer...

Re: File picker, button commands and GUI

For the scrolling save, you just have to add your code in an init python somewhere. I just put mine in my "init -1 python" at the beginning of the options.rpy, like this: init -1 python hide: ### layout.button_menu() layout.scrolling_load_save() config.load_save_slots = 50 config.load_save...

Re: Imagemap with fade?

I'm under the impression it's not possible to show an imagemap with a transition. (I could be wrong. ^^; ) What I do, and have also seen other people doing too, is to have an image that's exactly like your imagemap, and load that as a scene with that transition, immediately before the imagemap. The ...
