Re: Blinking screen effect

You could just show black with dissolve hide black with dissolve a few times for a rough approximation... Something like show black with dissolve pause 0.1 hide black with dissolve pause 0.2 show black with dissolve pause 0.3 hide black with dissolve pause 0.2 show black with dissolve pause 1.0 hide...

Re: Designing Kickass Menus

Hmm, I'd agree that changing up the default a bit is probably a good thing. Whilst it's perfectly functional as is, it can add more of a stamp of individuality to your porject if you change it. It also depends on how you use menus, I suppose. If you always have four options, then it might look nice ...

Re: Issue with loading images

For future reference, if your images have the same tag then they'll replace each other when you show them - for example, if you have image girl happy = "girlh.jpg" image girl sad = "girls.jpg" Then when you do show girl happy g "I'm happy!" show girl sad g "Now I'm...

Re: Any Alternatives To Paypal?

Can't you just make a bank transfer? Ask for their name, sort code and bank account number, and send the money to them by bank transfer.

Re: Character interaction screen

I'd do it using screen language: http://www.renpy.org/doc/html/screens.html to make a screen for the inventory, and have a list to store whether you have the items or not. First, set up the screen, and stick some boxes in there for the items to go in, and the list of inventory items. Assuming you wa...

Re: How to change position of character in renpy??

If you just want to make a particular image higher once or twice, the easiest way is to use ATL: http://www.renpy.org/doc/html/atl.html#atl In this case, you could just do something like show sylvie: yalign 0.8 which will make it appear 0.8 of the way up the screen. (Alternatives are using ATL to de...

Re: OELVN The Gathering

Something like this?

(I guess the abilities are meant to symbolise helping people in the forum, fixing broken aspects of programmes, and mkaing Ren'Py... They don't really tie together as a cohesive whole, though.)

Re: The worst VN/KN ever created

Okay, I couldn't be bothered to make a game. But I had some random rpy script files lying around. So I mashed them together and made this. It's pretty bad, but not in a good way like some of these. More in a "well, that was pointless" way.

Re: What order am I supposed to watch this in...?

Okay okay, I like this series for the most part, but I GOT SO LOST in it. Meaning: after the first season where they were Transferd to the other world or whatever, and they did come back or whatever after I saw some of that 8 part episode (or well. I watched 3 episodes) and then I don't know where ...

Re: Kickstarter / Indiegogo

A well researched breakdown of what the Kickstarter money is going to go to is something I'd like to see. If a developer has just pulled a number out of thin air as their target, they might not have taken into account a whole bunch of things that could crop up. Paying for artisits, voice actors and ...

Re: Kickstarter / Indiegogo

Getting funded is only half the battle. Once you have the money pledged, you don't actually get it right away . You need to finish your game, on-time, on-budget and to the agreed quality. This is not easy. Most professional games studios go over budget and miss milestones. If you go over budget, yo...

I should use this chance to learn ATL ヽ(´◠ω◠`)╯╰(◠‿◠✿)ノ (emotes are relevant). ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ So I'm stuck between whether or not my VN should be about an Idea I had for a romantic comedy action soviet cold-war film, or if it should be about a boy and his talking cat. I have voice actors for both. choic...

Re: The worst VN/KN ever created

Which game would be worse, one with bad writing, acting and pictures, or one that locks Ren'Py into an infinite loop and crashes before it starts? Because that second game is pretty easy to make!
