I poked around 6.13 a bit last night, found some GL initialization bugs in 6.13.0.1589 which were fixed by a shift-U update. The newest version ('Eye of the Storm', or 'pygame window' as the titlebar calls it) does have one weirdness with transitions - in the tutorial game, on Eileen's very first line, escape-main menu-yes will fade from black to the main menu. If I fast forward to the table of contents menu, escape-main menu-yes will fade from what appears to be a save or load screen to the main menu.

Windowed mode.
Could not get pygame screen: error("Couldn't find matching GLX visual",)
Performance test:
@jack: might be a GL driver bug or SW downscaling bug? It looks like the text is being rendered to a slightly larger size and then cropped down to fit the window padding.

I have no clue really! Is the first time I saw that, but I remember that user having troubles also with Planet Stronghold. I think he/she has a really strange computer (and I think he/she bought also many Hanako games, not sure if she had troubles with them too).
I should ask to upload the log.txt...

Sorry if this is the wrong place for this, but I've created a new project in 6.13.2 and for some reason the text always appears instantly, ignoring any changes I make to the text speed / default text cps (after deleting the persistent data); the screen also flickers slightly when the next block of text appears. I updated Ren'Py to the latest beta, but I'm still having this problem. If I open the same project in Ren'Py for android the text speed works normally, though.

(Sorry if this is just something I'm doing wrong! :( )

No cursor is shown when using renpy.input in 6.13.4.1637 for me. (Debian amd64, using the software renderer and the nouveau video driver for X, created a new test project to make sure there wasn't any conflict from older versions) Trying to set a cursor manually

Code: Select all

$ fnord = renpy.input('fnord>',caret=Text('^'))
raises TypeError: input() got an unexpected keyword argument 'caret'.

renpy.input doesn't take style properties - you have to give them to ui.input, or input on part of the screen.

I tried it in the tutorial game - it seems to work in the tutorial game, on my computer. Does it work there for you?

I suspect that noveau won't work well - it doesn't have support for accelerated OpenGL yet.

There's no input cursor in the tutorial game's "What is your name?" prompt either, for me. (Verified both running natively from the launcher in software mode and running a distribution in wine in software mode.) Are you testing in software mode or in one of the accelerated modes?

Also, quicksaving appears to give the wrong thumbnail - on native Linux, I get saves where the thumbnail is the software rendering warning; on Wine, quicksaving appears to sometimes thumbnail an earlier screen instead of the current one.

Hey, uh, just giving this a try and found a very easily reproducible bug:

- Launch the Tutorial game
- Wait for the big menu (leading to the various sections of the tutorial)
- Save the game
- Quit
- Launch it again
- Try to load that saved game
- Crash
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'append'

(hopefully not yet reported, I haven't gone through the whole thread, sorry :|)

And as a side question, if I wanted to get back into Ren'Py, should I start with 6.12 or this current version? Thanks!

Well... except for a few exotic and undiscovered bugs... I think Renpytom already ironed out most bugs that will prevent anyone from getting something done in 6.13... though I suggest you juggle between 6.12 and 6.13 in case you hit one of those critical snags...

Haha, hey there ^^;. Can't be stealthy around these parts uh? ;)

I'm tempted to go with 6.12 then, just to make sure I'm not stopped by random bugs as I try my idea. It's not like I'm going to use any fancy new features anyway. At least not for now :). Thanks for the opinion!

I noticed in the last update the lib/ directory size is 17mb! I looked inside it and found avcodec-53.dll which is 6mb. Is it correct size ? previous one was 1.2mb

No, I need to investigate. Likely, the debugging symbols are being left in for some reason.

I noticed that once is compressed the size is much smaller so doesn't have a big impact on install size though :)

I've got a crash to report in the latest Ren'Py, immediately upon launching the tutorial from the launcher. See attached log file. Incidentally, other OpenGL programs run on my computer without a problem.

Update: I've updated my graphics drivers, and Ren'Py no longer crashes. However, the crash is still a bug in Ren'Py! If Ren'Py detects a problem with my OpenGL setup (as in this case), it should fall back to software rendering instead of crashing.
