Code doesn't work

[Airetta]

i have put these code to my game:

Code: Select all

    scene opening01
    with fade
    pause 5.0

but when i test the game it doesn't work

can you help me maybe i have erase some code?

[Eliont]

Where you place this code?

Code: Select all

# The game starts here.
label start:
    show cursorPosition at bottom
    show screen exitButton
    # call newgame
    scene bg main 
    with fade
    pause 5.0

Works.
May be pause too long?

I don't think that code alone is buggy. Is opening01 defined somewhere? What error do you get (does the game run, just not how you expected, or does it not even start and just gives you a lint.txt that shows errors?)

[Airetta]

@eliont i think i haven't place that code yet o_O amI have to?
i don't think pause is too long cause i copas it from tutorial (if i remember correctly)
@blue lemma opening01 is exactly on the game's folder. the problem i get is the code to makes movement to character doesn't work (like when i place 'dissolve', the character doesn't arrived with dissolve effect) the pause is also doesn't work.

by the way my english is suck but i hope you understand what iam saying

It's a little hard to tell exactly what you're trying to do. Try:

Code: Select all

scene opening01 with fade

or

Code: Select all

scene opening01 with dissolve

instead of putting the "scene" and "with" on different lines.

You might also try naming your scenes like:

Code: Select all

image bg opening01 = "blahblah.png"

instead of

Code: Select all

image opening01 = "blahblah.png"

and then use the scene statement like:

Code: Select all

scene bg opening01

which creates a sort of "bg" layer if I'm not mistaken.

Are you trying to make the dissolve/fade take 5 seconds? Or do you want to pause 5 seconds after? Is there a character fading at the same time?

I'd really need more of the surrounding code to help you more

[Airetta]

Code: Select all

scene opening01 with fade

it doesn't work either :<

Code: Select all

image bg opening01 = "blahblah.png"

it has been like that since beginning :<

Are you trying to make the dissolve/fade take 5 seconds? Or do you want to pause 5 seconds after? Is there a character fading at the same time?

err sorry i don't really understand, can you use more simple language?

i can send you the code file if you want

[The CRxTR]

Yeah more better

You send the "script.rpy" that way we can know what is missing...

coming

check your pm

[Blue Lemma]

Feel free to email it to me, too.

That is a head scratcher. Is your alignment right? Ren'Py is a bit particular about how your lines are indented.

[The CRxTR]

Code: Select all

label start:
    play music "music06.mp3"
    scene opening01
    with fade
    pause 5.0
    scene opening02
    with fade
    pause 5.0

That's yo code right?

When you make pauses on scenes, you attribute as if pause is included with the scene like:

Code: Select all

label start:
    play music "music06.mp3"
    scene opening01
    with fade
    with Pause (5.0)
    scene opening02
    with fade
    with Pause (5.0)

with Pause (5.0)
use that instead.

pause is a python command... i think.

[Airetta]

@Blue Lemma: check your PM
@Gear: I think yes? ._.
@The CRxTR: it doesn't work either

[PyTom]

Airetta, can you explain how the code doesn't work?

[Gear]

I've never had to use "with" in order to pause the scene. Consider checking to ensure your files are named properly, defined in your script before that point, and are located where you told Ren'Py there were. Without more info, that's all the advice I have.

[Airetta]

@PyTom: when i use an effect like "with fade", "with move" "with dissolve", "pause 2.0" etc, those codes doesnt work. so when you trying to play the game the characters who are supposed to appear with dissolve seemed appear like i never put a code like "with fade" etc


@Gear: yeah, when i put "with" before the "pause" i got an error message
