show two images at the same time (SOLVED)

#1 Post by aki »

The title says it all.
How can I show two images at the same time. Because if I repeat show, the other image disapears.
I know it must be easy, but I do not find any solution.
Thanks in advance.

Simple chane the place they are

Code: Select all

show image1
show image2 at left
show image3 at right
You can define other positions, but these are already built in.

Yes. But when you show one image, the other disappers.
I just tried the command behind. It worked.

Code: Select all

show ch_1at center
show ch_2 at left behind ch_1

Maybe you should use
show ch_1 at center

instead of
show ch_1at center

For me show works perfect, showing multiple images.

There's supposed to be a space between "ch_1" and "at". You have them as all one word.

Ah, ok. But that was not the problem. This was only to make the name short. In the game is ok and doesn't work...

Make sure that the image names don't start with the same word.
For example if your images are called "char alice" and "char bob", Ren'Py will assume that both belong to the same group of images and replace the old one with the new one. (Which is really useful, if you know about it!) Maybe that's what's causing it?
