Re: Ren'Py 7.4.0 Prereleased

The ability to use transform to an entire layer sounds really useful for blur or colour effects (ie. migraines and flashbacks), but I'm not too sure how to do it? akakyouryuu's code snippet above doesn't seem to be blurring the master layer... That aside, there seems to be something odd going on wit...

Re: Is Digitally Signing EXE Required?

It seems incredibly bizarre that having a custom icon is triggering a false positive with Windows Defender at all. Defender is usually pretty good in this day and age. Can you check if you get the false positive when you remove the ico file from the project and rebuild? Or if it happens with a diffe...

Re: Text bleeps callback won't stop in menus [SOLVED!]

The above download doesn't appear to actually stop the beeps in the menu. (Also the second sound effect is... pretty unpleasant.) For my own project, I have to specifically mute the text channel when calling a screen from the main screen. label enter_game_menu: $ renpy.music.stop(channel="text&...

Re: FancyText: Effects for Slow Text Display

I can confirm that the repeating of the animation on extend and wait tags is fixed, as well as outlines.

... oops, turns out that pause was literally the pause(0.4) in that code. Wonder why that was there.
Regardless, it seems all smooth sailing. o:

Re: FancyText: Effects for Slow Text Display

Hell yeah, a soft fade to the typewriter effect is just the sort of thing I've been after myself. Shaking text is a neat and possibly useful effect too. There's a few minor hiccups though. - Fancytext doesn't like text outlines. If the dialogue has an outline style, it throws an error. While running...

Re: Where is the screen "_exception" kept?

I found def report_exception(e, editor=True) in renpy/error.py. It's not a screen, however.

Re: Mousewheel up rollback to screens

I'm not sure how much this might help, but I have this code for calling the history screen with the mousewheel instead of rollback. # Override Keymap def readback_catcher(): if _game_menu_screen != None: ui.add(renpy.Keymap(rollback=[Stop("text"), renpy.curried_call_in_new_context("ca...

Re: Is there a way to prevent namebox refresh?

Funnily enough I'm trying to do this exact same effect. I want a name box to pan in when a character starts speaking, and swap with other name "cards" when switching characters or the like. And I've run into this same problem. I gave the above code a try, using variables and on show , and ...

Re: Glitch/VHS/CTR effects on Renpy?

Your best bet would probably be to make hand-made glitch images and animate them in various ways as a screen-sized ATL animation. You would have to however make these images static, making different sets of glitches for different scenes. If you want them to be dynamically generated based on the scre...

Re: Portrait System

Release of Portrait System v2.0! (... beta 0.9) So as I mentioned, I was working on an improved version of this script. I sent a message to ChocoKeki but as I have not heard back, I have decided to go ahead and release it to the public anyway. There are some major design direction changes from v1.X...

Re: How to remove the SAVE menu?

If you want to remove the save slot elements from the "base" pause menu, that'll require working with screen language to make a new pause screen. The same technically also for removing save/load from the menu options, but I'm assuming you want to move the save/load into their own screen, r...

Re: Coding Dialogue Statements easier!

Are you specifically trying to wrap dialogue in quote-marks, or is there a different use to it? Because you can add quote marks around text by using prefix/suffix arguments in Character() statements --

Code: Select all

Character(name, what_prefix=u"“", what_suffix="”")

Re: Portrait System

I'm actually working on an improved version of this where you can pair different expressions with the same base portrait. It's technically done but I probably need to test it some more. What it results in though, is that it re-splits body/eyes/mouth into separate files, hahah. But it keeps the code ...

Re: Apply ATL to who/what in dialogue

When I say "soft fade", I mean each letter should fade in from 0.0 alpha to 1.0, or possibly other transitions. Currently there is no way (as near as I can see) to change the typewriter effect on dialogue from a hard cut.
