Re: Anime survey p1

I never notice the country whenever I watch a movie (I only know Westerns or Japan or not either of them). So I can't answer the question. What about their accents? Why do i feel you are pointing to Harry Potter? . Because you are sick and tired of X-overs with HP? For the record, I wasn't thinking...

Re: Most precious game in your collection?

I never actually played FFA/Seiken 1 so I don't really know the plot of it, though according to the Wiki article there is some stuff in there about the Mana Tree. The full title of the game in "Japan was Seiken Densetsu: Final Fantasy Gaiden," which somewhat implies that the entirety of th...

Re: Most precious game in your collection?

Considering how many games I've played in the last... 25 or so years... it is hard to come up with a small list for myself. More than likely, however, I'd say that my all time favorites are: - Final Fantasy 4 (My favorite game of all time... I have every remake of the game they've released...) - Zel...

Re: Most precious game in your collection?

@Topagae: When you say Original Secret of Mana, is it Seiken Denstesu 1 or 2? Since I never manage to find Seiken Densetsu 1... Is it Secret of Evermore? "Final Fantasy Adventure" is the US title of Seiken Densetsu 1 "Secret of Mana" is the US title of Seiken Densetsu 2 There we...

Re: Code for players to enter Name Help?

It sounds like you put the code into an init block. Try putting the code immediately after the start label.

Re: true/false statement error

Your issue may be here:

Code: Select all

            if upstairs_done == False:
                $upstairs_done == True
It seems like you're trying to set upstairs_done to True here, but instead are doing a boolean evaluation using ==, which won't change the value of upstairs_done. You'd want to change this to =

Re: Fighting Game

I'm not sure that Ren'Py is the best engine to make a "Capcom" style fighting game with, to be honest. I'm not going to say it is impossible, but as visual novel engine, Ren'Py doesn't appear to be designed with real time movement or collision detection in mind. It would probably be a very...

Re: Technical question

Yes. You just need to store each value in a separate variable.

Re: A question for RPG lovers: plot or combat?

Of course, I admit I haven't spent a lot of time on RP servers, so I don't entirely understand that experience. :) For a casual MMORPG player like me, it's much further from a tabletop experience. It's probably different with a good RP group... and that explains why you're seeing such a split in re...

Re: A question for RPG lovers: plot or combat?

Since the original idea for the RPG really came from having players live out a role, many early games up until the NES era were really driven by level building, and attempted to create an immersive environment. I think Final Fantasy really started to change all that, and especially games like Chron...

Re: question on various things...

Um, can anyone simplify the explanation about rpg frames? or is there even a much more easier coding for rpg? Unfortunately, the RPG frame example is extremely simplistic example of how to display stats. It is probably as basic it is going to get. You may want to look at Jake's RPG engine in the WI...

Re: How to utilize specific stats

In this case you don't want to put your declarations in an init block. I think your problem is that there are some minor syntax issues, at least how you put your code in. You also don't necessarily need jumps just to modify a variable. $ vilie = 0 $ vitruth = 0 $ vinu = 0 menu: "I'll be honest....

Re: Syntax Advice?

That was kind of what I was leaning towards as well. Helps to see it actually be done that way, and I think it still works. I have been trying to play through some more VN's lately. I hadn't really realized just how long it has been. I used to check them out all the time, but I moved to Linux for a...
