If you are looking for dynamic movement and layers, you may want to check out akakyouryuu's 3-D camera cookbook. https://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=29778 Thanks! I wanted to make something similar on my own with ATL animations, but since code is available, reinventing the whe...

As the documentation says, transform scaling gets ugly below 0.5 ... :( I was hoping it's more like a suggestion to keep it above 0.5 :/ In project I'm currently finishing most of sprites are by default zoom 0.5 and I didn't noticed such drastical drop in quality as with factor below 0.5. My dreams...

Try using Transform instead of im.Scale. I actually used Transform in first place, but thank you for reminding about im.Scale, I looked in documentation what's the difference and I found nice propery called "bilinear" which when set to True uses, as name suggest - bilinear filtering and i...

I'm working on some features for my next project and I've come across strange issue. Whenever I scale image down in RenPy with code, it gets horrible quality. I'm using fullbody sprite with 2048x4096 pixels size, so quality of source is good enough for 1080p resolution. (I'm using ATL animations lik...

For me motivating was looking at what I already have and think "I got so far, I can't go back now!". Thinking like that for a year and here I am, about to announce and release my first project. Maybe it also came from experience, I was previously working on 3D games projects, but the progr...

I'm trying to get better with event illustrations (CG) - fullbody poses, colors, lighting, backgrounds etc.
Here's something unrelated to previous images, please let me know what do you think:

I'm still not great at drawing, and I started around a year ago at age 22, but here's my story: I'm self-taught 3D artist, so it might helped me with proportions, perspective etc. Anyway, I started with a printer paper, a pen (yes, not even a pencil) and watched Mark Crilley's youtube videos (I real...

I'm using something like this: and works great (Renpy 6.99.12.4.2187)

Thank you all very much for helpful and encouraging answers! I started drawing some CGs, I'd like to ask you again for opinion, are they good enough for a (commercial?) game? Can you tell it's the same character as in sprites above? I know that few areas are a bit off, but is it very visible? Cat.jp...

I'll show an example to give better idea how I intend to do it: I have 9 story endings, each has 4 small cosmetic variations (changes in characters look), so 36 CG in total. I want to use the same background for all endings, but place character sprites instead drawing characters again. Few character...

Hi, I'd like to ask what do you think about sometimes using character sprites (or slightly changed sprites) - scaled, rotated, cropped and so on, in event illustrations and sometimes original character art but with blurred background? The reason I'm asking is that I'd planned over 30 illustrations (...

I'd say that everything is quite hard if you want to do it on your own with almost no experience. But in fact, you can understand (RenPy) programming quite easily, writing a story should also not be a problem. You can learn about marketing just by watching/reading stuff on internet. Music - you just...

Thank you for kind answers, I was afraid that my art is... well... way below "acceptable". As I said it's not even a year since I started drawing (maybe having experience in 3D Art helped a bit). I know that I'm still lacking in anatomy, perspective and so on, and I want to improve on that...

Latest update worth showing: TestAnimeComp.png ------------------------------------------- Hi, I've been learning to draw in anime/manga style for almost a year now (digitally for few months), and I wonder if my art is good enough now. Please let me know what you think :D Here's one of my characters...

For changing color and font you can simply use something like that: textbutton _("{color=#ff0000}{font=YourFont.otf}ButtonName{/font}{/color}") action YourAction But probably there's better way to do it. I don't know where did your frame came from, I believe you would need to delete some p...
