I got several questions

[carlyxjack]

Hey guys, I just have some more questions. And I hope it's possible for someone to answer them.

1. I was just wondering, how is it possible to have a menu page image.
For me it's only blank. I want some kind image as menu page.

2. secondly, when I use a sound, it continues making sounds. I want the sound only to ring once instead
of continueing.

3., I have seen some games, and I am not sure they are being made with renpy, but in these games you could choose for example one building. And the builidings were across the screen. And if you for example choose that building, you could go to that home.
It's not only a visual novel, but you can actually click on objects( in this case buildings).
I was wondering how it could be made.

4. Lastly. how is it possible to have text on the screen instead of on the box.

I hope these questions won't be too difficult to answer them.^^

For the second one, what are you using to play the sound, "play sound" or "play music"? Using either "play sound "hit.wav"" or "$ renpy.play('hit.wav')" ought to play it only once.

Imagemaps are your friends! I think that's the answer to your third question. The Ren'Py tutorial explains it under User Interaction. It's not too difficult!

I hope I helped a bit, and happy coding~

For the first question, find this code in your options.rpy

Code: Select all

        ## The background of the main menu. This can be a color
        ## beginning with '#', or an image filename. The latter
        ## should take up the full height and width of the screen.
        mm_root = "yourimagehere.png",
        ## you replace ^ that with the name of your image file

I'm not sure what you mean by your 4th question so not sure how to answer it ^^;

By text on the screen, I think he/she meant NVL mode.

Here's a tutorial on NVL mode

And for question 3 you can use imagemaps: http://www.renpy.org/wiki/renpy/doc/FAQ ... agemaps.3F
... At least that's how I would do it. lol

ha thanks for everyone for the info. I didn't know it made a difference between music and sound.
About the imagemaps and the nvl, I will it read later.

i still have to figure about the options.rpy
It will take some time, but hopefully I will understand it soon.
