There's a difference in Ren'py between "pixellate" and "Pixellate".

Small-p pixellate is used internally, while capital-p is for the scriptwriters to use.

If you have to shuffle a lot of menus, instead of shuffling them individually, you can ask the screen code to handle it for you. Here's an updated version of the "choice" screen: ############################################################################## # Choice # # Screen that's used ...

Sure - since outlines is a list, you can add more tuples to represent more outlines. The outlines are sorted from back to front.

You're lucky I was doing some similar experiments in the weeks before your question came up. The trick is to keep the old and new text in separate variables, and also to make sure the say screen doesn't re-animate the two sentences, if you're doing something other than changing the dialogue. You can...

I've updated the exporter to Version 1.4.

The image prediction has been improved for complex animations, so if you've ever noticed a short pause before a complex Flash animation, that pause should either be greatly reduced or gone now.

Also, the output that's in animations.rpy has been simplified.

Been playing around with it some more. Still exciting, but it seems like my animations are just creating frame by frame animations rather than just animating the pieces. I don't think this was the intended effect, but a 2 second clip is already 11MB this way and I won't be able to replace the sprit...

show cs uw sullen with fade "Her tainted blonde hair fought wildly with the water that surrounded it, as if held against its will." $specialtrans = pixellate(2.0,old_widget=ImageReference("cs uw sullen"),new_widget=ImageReference("cs uw smile"),alpha=True) show express...

Yes, it's possible to give a transition two arguments: 'old_widget' and 'new_widget', to create a transition that uses specific start and end images. What you'll get back is a function that returns a displayable. You can then use 'show expression' to put it up on screen: "As soon as those words...

So I thought I'd play around this just to see what would happen. I created a series of layers, each of which with different keyframes playing an animation that I want to have looping. However, when I export this is the code that I get. init: image Tween 15: LiveComposite ((0,0), (-108,-249),"i...

Unfortunately, It seems it doesn't fix it. It looks this lag occurs even in the middle of single transition, for example: scene black with irisout In the middle of executing the above line in my game, the irisout transition stops 1~2 times each in a few mil secs, and memory usage goes up high (like...

I tried the example, and had the same problems you did. This might be a bug - you should tell PyTom about it. For now, here's a workaround. Go into renpy/display/particle.py and change this line: # Line 264 self.children.sort(key=lambda sc:sc.zorder) ..and then download the new version after PyTom t...

Let myDisplay() be an ordinary image, and use the show statement. If you want to make sure it acts like a HUD that overlays everything else, use the 'onlayer' keyword.

Will the gameplay have any relation to the old classic Lemonade Stand?

Well, it sounds like it'd be fun to read, and that's always a good first step in making a VN.

I'll check in from time to time.

There's a dark and gloomy city in the West that has an underground pit circuit, where every few nights the underside of the city gathers to engage in sport fighting. It's no ordinary show, as the fighters who come to compete are incredibly skilled, and often come from unusual or exotic backgrounds....
