Instant CG and BG gallery

[Fenrir34]

You need to add the button to "screen main_menu" in screens.rpy to call the gallery screen. Something like this:

Code: Select all

        textbutton _("Start Game") action Start()
        textbutton _("CG Gallery") action ShowMenu("cg_gallery")
        textbutton _("Load Game") action ShowMenu("load")

Okay. It showed but when I click on it says that gallery is not a screen or label.

Sorry if I'm a bother. I only know basic renpy coding. Never done this part before

Double check that the screen has the same name (cg_gallery in this case) when you define it and when you call it:

Code: Select all

screen cg_gallery:

Code: Select all

        textbutton _("CG Gallery") action ShowMenu("cg_gallery")

Oh thank you so much! It worked . Just one last question. How to a keep an image invisible till a person unlocks the path

[leon]

Glad you got it working.
The images will be locked from the start and will unlock automatically when they are shown for the first time. Delete persistent data from Ren'Py launcher to test it. If you want more complicated unlocking conditions check the documentation on how to use Gallery.condition().

Okay and thanks again for all you're help. Really appreciate it

How I can do to put everything in a variation of the cg's?

etto...while viewing the image in full view...can we make a button or just clicking it to move to the next image?

Sorry but I am still having the same problem as Riku and Kindydos did:

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

I didn't really understand Kindydos's solution and I don't wanna have to download "All-In-One RenPy Framework" just for a cg gallery so please help and sorry for being such a bother...

etto...while viewing the image in full view...can we make a button or just clicking it to move to the next image?

Not sure how to do that... I haven't tested this, but you could combine the image with the button like this:

Code: Select all

g_cg.image("image", "button")

This won't make the button clickable, but it will show it on top of the image.

@Chairrypie: Do you have your images defined under "init"? You can download a working gallery here - http://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/downlo ... p?id=21639.

where should I put that exactly?
i tried your given code,

Code: Select all

#CG-->CHARLOTTE#    
    gal_cells = gal_rows * gal_cols    
    g_charlotte = Gallery()
    for gal_item in gallery_charlotte_items:
        g_charlotte.button(gal_item + " butt")
        g_charlotte.image("image", "button")
        g_charlotte.image(gal_item)
        g_charlotte.unlock(gal_item)
    g_charlotte.transition = fade
    charlotte_page=

it said. Image "image/button" not found (image and button is mixed u..I cant read it)

screenshot

also this one...I dont know what is this.

does 'text button' will work?
in your default code, once you click into the full view image it returns to the gallery menu.

[leon]

Sorry, I meant like this:

Code: Select all

g_cg.image(gal_item, "button")

While also defining a button somewhere:

Code: Select all

init:
    image button = "button.png"

And you'll need to make button.png. button.png should have the size of your game resolution and have a transparent background.

This creates a fake button (since you can just click anywhere) on top of each image.

in your default code, once you click into the full view image it returns to the gallery menu.

Yes, it only shows more images for images with variations. I don't know how to change the behavior to show the next gallery item on click. Try asking about this in Ren'Py Questions and Announcements.

[kuri_chii]

can we disable that feature? the click anywhere

and i'll try to make that button a imagebutton...

i'll try to ask at the QA section...or explore it myself...

your code make everything easier :3

[Chairrypie]

Thank you leon! You're right it turns out all i needed was to add "init:" The CG gallery looks excellent!

[Zebragirl]

Hello.

Thanks for this script, it is very fast and useful.

The code works for me everything, but the images in the gallery are already unlocked,also your file has CG images already unlocked without i need view them before unlocking...

I need that the images are all locked, and only after seeing them may appear in the gallery.

how can I do this?
What I'm wrong?

Code: Select all

init python:
    #Galleries settings - start
    #list the CG gallery images here:
    gallery_cg_items = ["cg flower", ]
    
    #how many rows and columns in the gallery screens?
    gal_rows = 3
    gal_cols = 3
    #thumbnail size in pixels:
    thumbnail_x = 267
    thumbnail_y = 150
    #the setting above (267x150) will work well with 16:9 screen ratio. Make sure to adjust it, if your are using 4:3 or something else.
    #Galleries settings - end
    
    gal_cells = gal_rows * gal_cols    
    g_cg = Gallery()
    for gal_item in gallery_cg_items:
        g_cg.button(gal_item + " butt")
        g_cg.image(gal_item)
        g_cg.unlock(gal_item)
    g_cg.transition = fade
    cg_page=0

    
    
init +1 python:
    #Here we create the thumbnails. We create a grayscale thumbnail image for BGs, but we use a special "locked" image for CGs to prevent spoilers.
    for gal_item in gallery_cg_items:
        renpy.image (gal_item + " butt", im.Scale(ImageReference(gal_item), thumbnail_x, thumbnail_y))

            $ i = 0
            $ next_cg_page = cg_page + 1            
            if next_cg_page > int(len(gallery_cg_items)/gal_cells):
                $ next_cg_page = 0
            for gal_item in gallery_cg_items:
                $ i += 1
                if i <= (cg_page+1)*gal_cells and i>cg_page*gal_cells:
                    add g_cg.make_button(gal_item + " butt", gal_item + " butt", im.Scale("gallocked.png", thumbnail_x, thumbnail_y), xalign=0.5, yalign=0.5, idle_border=None, background=None, bottom_margin=24)
            for j in range(i, (cg_page+1)*gal_cells): #we need this to fully fill the grid

                    textbutton _("Next Page") action [SetVariable('cg_page', next_cg_page), ShowMenu("cg_gallery")]

Thanks if you can help me!
