Re: Showing two languages in-game simultaneously

I don't know about showing them simultaneously, but you could add a button to your say screen that lets you switch between languages with the click of a button. Would that help?

[PAID][OPEN] Looking for someone to port completed game to iOS

We have one visual novel completed, Our Personal Space . It's a sci-fi marriage simulation visual novel. We have an Android port, but I don't have a mac or any iOS devices, and I would love for people to be able to download it there. We are also in beta for the sequel, Space to Grow, and if the firs...

Re: Is there a visual node editor / map like twine?

Not built-in, but someone built a web-based one that works with Ren'Py code in Github:

Re: Optimizing music?

When you export your OGG files, you can choose the quality with a slider. Lower quality will not sound quite as good, but will be a smaller file size.

Re: Keep Textbox From Disappearing Between Dialogue

Hey, if you're using config.say_attribute_transition, then make sure you're also using say_attribute_transition_layer = "master", like this in your options.rpy define config.say_attribute_transition = Dissolve(0.5, alpha=True) define config.say_attribute_transition_layer = "master&quo...

Re: A newbie question about inbuilt themes

Probably the easiest way to do this would be to create a blank game where all you change is the GUI theme. Then whenever you want to make a new game using this theme, you can copy all its GUI data in. If you really wanted the Ren'py GUI to show your custom theme, you would need to modify the Ren'Py ...

Re: Recommended Text Editor (other than Atom)

I really like Visual Studio Code also. I switched from Atom a year ago and haven't looked back. Its syntax highlighting and git integration is really helpful.

Re: Visual Novels for children?

My kids played Magical Diary and my own game, Our Personal Space around age 10 or so... though both of those have some light romance. My kids made a very short VN about a magical LEGO, The Life Brick , and my daughter recently converted her short CYOA book into a voiced visual novel (target age is a...

Re: [SOLVED] Can text hyperlinks take arguments?

Hey, if you want to use that, you'll need to paste in the python block from hell_oh_world. That's the code that tells Ren'py to pass interpret actions in hyperlinks as Ren'Py code. Is this what you want, or do you just want a regular hyperlink?

Re: An error occurs when exporting to Android

These are just warnings, so if the build failed, it's probably not from this but from a different error.

In programming a "WARNING" is usually something you shouldn't use but it should still work. This is different from an "ERROR" which means something definitely will not work.

Re: Super basic question on calling other scripts

You can put the code in any file with .rpy at the end and Ren'Py will read it. It actually doesn't care what any of your files are called; it puts all the .rpy files into one big thing and then runs code from there. So usually you will download .rpy files and put them in a project, or copy and paste...

Have you checked your options.rpy? There's a few different name variables used there, such as config.name and build.name

Re: Making the WHO on a say screen a textbutton while keeping its who_color?

Thank you, this is exactly what I was trying to do! I didn't know you could use buttons this way (I've only used textbuttons and imagebuttons), but it makes sense (and also helps solve a different problem I had). Many thanks!
