it's interesting that you posted this just as I was considering whether to post code for changing the mouse cursor at any time (which I just got working a couple days ago). a few criticisms: --it'd be better to put the text describing the objects at the bottom or top of the screen so that it doesn't...

@pwisaguacate: I'll put into context. when I obtained the rock, the first idea that came to mind was that fabienne could smash the grating on the pipe. I equipped the rock, then clicked on the pipe, but all she did was look at the pipe. Then I tried dragging the rock, since that is a common way to u...

interesting game. I think it would have been nice to have a separate way of telling her to use an item. that way it's easier to tell when something didn't work.

if you make another game like this, I would advise against imagemaps if possible, as they're not very dynamic or efficient.

look at the traceback a bit closer. that line is from the renpygame code, not mine. also, I used the import method shown on the renpygame page in the wiki, which allows the code to refer to renpygame modules as pygame modules. I've only been doing so to avoid typing as much, but I don't think it wou...

my code: joysticks = [] for j in range(pygame.joystick.get_count()): joysticks.append(pygame.joystick.Joystick()) joysticks[j].init() the error: Full traceback: File "C:\vns\renpy-6.13.12\renpy\execution.py", line 265, in run File "C:\vns\renpy-6.13.12\renpy\ast.py", line 632, in...

okay, so I've just scanned through this thread to make sure the stuff I want to bring up hasn't already been mentioned. Seriously, your threads are always so populated... some things that really stuck in my mind after reading this: --Was Chunxiang supposed to sound like Rena Ryuguu in her first scen...

Most recently, I tried to fix issues with the timers and issued a re-release. I suspect this new bug may have been created in the process. Are there any more details you can give me? Anything you can tell me could help me track down and fix this. (When did this start happening, which timeout even o...

...What? Like, what? That which you say occurred, is impossible, therefore cannot have occurred. I think this game may have taken a toll on your sanity. really? well, then let me ask, now that I've played some more and seen more bizarre things occur. Was the "time's up" thing supposed to ...

I just played through on demented (cause I'm the sort of masochist that plays hardest first). before anything else, I have to say, if you're going to have a doom timer, you should have it trigger a flag and have points in the game where the flag is checked. this is especially true if the timer trigg...

I'm currently working on a project that requires frequently switching between pygame and renpy, and I've found a way to not only pass the necessary variables back and forth, but also pass what's currently on the screen. the problem is that my way of doing so to save it to a temporary file and then l...

these answers were really hard to choose. there were a bunch where I only partially agreed with any of the answers, and some where I really wanted to combine answers.

I got literature, but I'm sure exactly what that means as a genre.

well, depends on the pacing and your ability to code. it's possible to use a timer and a list of imagebuttons to make a shooting sequence, but you'd have to keep setting the timer after every click, which is somewhat awkward and can lead to lag if there's too much going on. the other way I know of, ...

if you call the new screen with the "call screen" statement, it should behave the same way. otherwise you can also use the pause statement if you want to change the screen that comes up when you use the menu statement, go into the screens.rpy file and find the part that says "screen c...

if you do go through with this, I suggest you not replicate the feel of monster girl quest's battles. specifically, having the player try to figure what precise combination of attacks will win the battle to the point of being a puzzle more than a battle requires a lot of individual work. it's easier...

as a long time reader of yahtzee's column (and watcher of his videos), I sincerely doubt he was referring at all to vns in that article. I don't think vns even register strongly enough on his gaming spectrum, considering the only time I can remember him mentioning them it was to refer to them as &qu...
