Custom transition problem

[deadwarrior63]

I am trying to make a custom transition similar to the "eyes closing" one in Katawa Shoujo for my VN but for the life of me, I cannot work out how to do it.

I've tried these three possibilities:

Code: Select all

define eyeshut = wipeup(1.0), wipedown(1.0)
define eyeshut = wipeup(1.0) wipedown(1.0)
define eyeshut = wipeup(1.0)
               = wipedown(1.0)

The first one worked until the time of transition giving me this error:

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
  File "game/script.rpy", line 104, in script
TypeError: 'tuple' object is not callable

    new_widget=layers_root)
TypeError: 'tuple' object is not callable

The other two give errors before the game even loads. I can post the traceback's from them too if needed.

Help please. Sorry if this is posted in the wrong format or place as i'm new here.

Thanks for that but the supplied code didn't work.. all I did was change the image name and the name of the transition..

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

thats the output as the game fails to load at all.. is there something i did wrong??
my code:

Code: Select all

define eyeshut = MultipleTransition(
    False, dissolve(0.5),
    "images/bgblack.png", NoTransition(1.0),
    "images/bgblack.png", dissolve,
    True)

Have no idea why "NoTransition" doesn't work... (one could check \renpy-6.15.4-sdk\renpy\display\transition.py to find out the problem), so try to use "Pause" instead as it mentioned next to "MultipleTransition" description and also put all those arguments inside brackets, like

Code: Select all

define logodissolve = MultipleTransition(
    (False, Dissolve(1.5), 
    "logo.png", Pause(1.0), 
    "logo.png", dissolve, 
    True)
    )
