I forgot to add I use Windows.. Win 7 and XP dual boot.. to make matters worse. Sure hope I can figure this out. I was using MotionArtist, looked at GameSalad, and even MadeFire. They have hefty fees..and have only a few advantages over RenPY. Renpy has features these programs do not. I am on SS and cannot afford these programs- period.

Can you try again with a clean install of 6.18.2?

Of course I can. Should I wipe out Android SDK, and/or Java?

The android sdk is installed under Ren'Py, so if you get rid of Ren'Py, you'll clean out the sdk.

Java is probably fine.

Wow thanks I will do this at once. RenPy is installed in "My Documents" not "Program Files". I assume there are no registry entries. One note it is on an XP installation. My computer is Dual boot. When I install again, I will put it on my Win7 installation.

You shouldn't edit the apk file.

Instead, check the debug output:

found the problem, apparently I forgot to unpack the .rpa files :mrgreen:
another question, what files in what folder should I edit to change the icon and the splash screen ?

Not by itself. You'd have to add support.

I suspect an interstitial ad would be easier to integrate.
