The new renai.us/games.renpy.org support thread.

#1 Post by PyTom »

With renai.us and games.renpy.org nearly done, I thought I'd create a new support thread. This is where people can get help with the site.

Don't worry, we can get through it together. I didn't forget about you! I just got overwhelmed.

There is an "add screenshot" button above the game entry. Use that.

Can I provide ztats on Ren'py games ? please.....

(For sure, it's possible to generate data of content size of games (du -s */game :mrgreen: ;) and also by Ren'py version (I guess we need a script whose read the content of script_version.rpy and tally these)

Another question, what role has the "unapproved" list, and what means "unapproved" ?

Best regards from Italy,
Dott. Piergiorgio.

Unapproved means that someone has submitted content (a game, an updated file, a screenshot, etc.) but an admin hasn't had the chance to look it over and approve it yet. It's just so that people don't submit incorrect files, NSWF screencaps, etc. I check the unapproved list several times a day, so if you've got something on it, it should be approved within 24 hours.

OK I have understand: is a fancy means of naming of the "incoming" or "upload" area of repositories/archives :lol: :lol: :P

I'm having trouble uploading new game files. Screencaps are no problem, but when I try to upload a new file, I get a blank screen.

Edit: This only happens for games that don't already have files. If a game has files, I can upload more. If the game is file-less, I only get the blank page.

The problem was twofold:

- You're only able to upload files to renaius games. (Since that's all we host.) You'll need to flag a game renaius before you can upload to it.
- The error wasn't being handled correctly.

I've fixed both, I think.

Who do I need to contact to get Dreams of the Skies moved into the proper section? I'm pretty sure I didn't write yaoi, no matter how bad the art was...

I just noticed The Stolen Diamond Ring got labeled "ages 13+", which isn't the case. Could one of the editors please change it to all ages?

There is no way to appropriately list a game that addresses violence, but doesn't contain sexual themes...

I had to post my game as suited for all ages - even though it addresses violence... because had i chosen any rating other than "all ages" the form immediately assumes it contains sexual content (which it doesn't at all).
