How do you resize an image?

[Smoothie-Kisses]

For my visual novel there is a scene where a character is visible but the character is too big to see the whole character (right now i can only see his waist) and i am wondering is there anything to help shrink the character?




-Thank you!

Wild guess: Google + "renpy scale"
Result: this

Feel free to adapt this concept for further questions that may arise.

You may find it very complicated, maybe it really is, but here I go:

I have a very big sprite (806x2244) and I use transforms to show it in my game screen (my game is 1024x640). Put the following code inside your Init block (the start of your game code, where you define your sprites, backgrounds and so on):

Code: Select all

transform natural_size:
             on show:
             yalign 610 xalign 0.5

Code: Select all

transform half_size:
        size (400,1114) crop(0,0,806,2244)
        on show:
            yalign 610 xalign 0.5

You can change the example names "natural_size" and "half_size", if you want. Change 806,2244 to the width and height of your sprite in pixels.

yalign is the number of lines of pixels of the image that will be shown from top to bottom. You can change it for your image. In my case, my 806x2244 sprite is shown from the tip of the head down to the shoulders.

In the second transform, size is the new size of the image that you want (must be proportional to the original size, or the image may be deformed). Using this transform, my sprite is shown from the tip of the head down to his knees.

How to use this in your game? You will simply write:

Code: Select all

show mySprite at natural_size

or

Code: Select all

show mySprite at halfsize, left

write the name of your sprite in place of "mySprite".
