Help in splashscreen

[anlo09]

The video won't play and when I opened my game it just go directly to the menu, what's wrong with it??

Here's the code I've entered anyways...

Code: Select all

label splashscreen:
           
    $ renpy.movie_cutscene('name_of_video.ogv')
    
    return
    

# The game starts here.
label start:

Thank you in advance!!

show label splashscreen:

$ renpy.movie_cutscene('zombie.mpg')




return

is how i did mine and it is working

1:you dont have show before the label that could be the reason
2:or the type of video file that you using is not working right with renpy

those might fix it

what should I do?

show label splashscreen: is not valid. I don't how it ever worked for rakada.

Anyway, that's how you play a video in ren'py and it works fine for me with the tutorial's shuttle.ogv copied and renamed to name_of_video.ogv so I can only assume there's some problem with the video.

That really weird since that how I done it for more then one type of game haha I should try the other way

It still won't work even though I converted the video...

[rakada]

I had this problem before where my video wouldn't work on my game ( would skip over it to the main menu) because it was at a certain bitrate so I converted it too a lower bit rate and it worked fine. so that could possible be it but not sure why it not working. I could see if the video work on my test if I had said video to see If there was something wrong with the video itself

Does your video have an audio track? ren'py requires one, even if it just contains silence.

Yes, it does...
