Text Problem

#1 Post by Ketsu » Sun Jul 15, 2012 9:34 pm

Hi! I have a problem! Ever since I added this new gorgeous text box (courtesy of http://kingv.deviantart.com/) none of my text is showing up on it! Dialogue and names included TT_TT

I'm sorry if the answer is obvious, this is my first time working with renpy >.<...and I really can't figure it out...

Image

Am I doing something wrong? I added the textbox in the right place

Code: Select all

    style.window.background = Frame("TextBox.png", 800, 800)
in options.rpy

What do I do? D:

Try changing 800 to a lower number,

Code: Select all

style.window.background = Frame("frame.png", 12, 12)
or something like this.

But i did that, the textbox image takes up the whole screen (the rest is transparent) as it's prefitted and not going to change for the whole game...
And I did read that >.<;

Try cropping the image; remove all the transparent part and then try again.
