Okay, I've added in a "fast skip forward" feature, which is enabled by setting config.fast_skipping to True, and then hitting '>'. It jumps forward until it sees an interaction that's not caused by a transition, say statement, or pause, and then stops and goes on with that interaction. I'm...

Suggestions noted.

Do people thing fast-skip and fast-rewind should be limited to some sort of debug mode, or should they be available whenever the game is played (with different keystrokes from the usual skipping commands)?

Viewing page source, it strongly looks to me like it's failing to run the (php?) code that generates the page, and instead is simply showing you that php code. This is a configuration issue on the server, and not your problem. It's probably off-topic for the GMC, having nothing to do with game-makin...

Assuming that "Can be archived elsewhere if so desired." counts as permission, I've added this to the archive.

FWIW, noisetracks (like the one in Moonlight Walks) can get by with even shorter loops, provided the looping is seamless. IIRC, the water lapping track in MW is about 15 seconds long, although the sound file was then looped a few times to get around some issues with skipping in older versions of Ren...

I believe that according to this , that's reserved for "People Who Write Erotic Version of Star Trek Where All the Characters Are Furries, Like Kirk is an Ocelot or Something, and They Put a Furry Version of Themselves as the Star of the Story". I'm sure that when people pass the limit, ne...

I noticed the ATP games (save for Idoltype) have those split downloads. If you can, it'd be nice to have the new one-file downloads available, as they will be more convenient and in the case of Black Pencil and River Trap they already contain the fullscreen executables. I just went through and repl...

Naming conventions... If you look at the django site, each game has a to-be-permalink page. For example, Moonlight Walks is at: http://django.renai.us/game/mwalks.shtml The bit between the last / and the .shtml is the tag. In this case, the tag is mwalks. If you could somehow work that into the file...

AFAIK, all of the games in the archive run on windows, so that shouldn't be a problem. I figure we want representative-yet-beautiful shots of the games, similar to what we have in the archive now. I think the shots should be at the game's full resolution, and then I can scale them down programatical...

I love the site. The only thing I would suggest is bigger images, about 200x150 (or so). Other than that, excellent. :P I believe that the 128x96 size was chosen for compatibility with the ELBGE. (Read: We stole the original pictures from mikey's site.) Bigger screenshots would be nice, but someone...

I've posted up a beta of the next version of the Ren'Ai archives, at: http://django.renai.us This site has a number of new features, such as a page per game, the ability to group games by category, the ability to see the 5 newest games, and so on. It's now backed by a database, which will make addin...

Well, that number takes into account alot of things. For example, it assumes that for each programmer, there are 1.4 other people making the same amount of money (selling the program, for example).

So take it with a huge grain of salt.

Just to confirm, monele has it right. Rollback will reset variables to the values they had before the rollback. (This is true for variables changed after the initial init phase, and for objects reachable from such variables.)

In general, Ren'Py tries to do The Right Thing when it comes to rollback.
