Error with string Substitution inside a voice tag?

#1 Post by Jo'ogn »

Renpy complains about an error in a voice line where I queue two files of which one uses string substitution. I assume it once worked (some years and renpy versions ago). Now I just can't see the error? Esp. since the traceback indicates a correct substition ("Spieler" German for player, is the player's chosen name. "Daniel" in this case.). All the files are there in that path. Any help is appreciated.

I don't know why the traceback also shows a voice line (voice "vfx.Spieler/Sp.B0101.v.ogg") that hasn't been reached yet...

Code: Select all

voice ["vfx.Doris/Do.B0101.p.ogg","vfx.Doris/Do.B0101.p.%s.ogg"%(Spieler)]

Do "Aber dafür bin ich doch da, %(Spieler)s."
voice "vfx.Doris/Do.B0101.pb.ogg"
extend " War es wirklich so schlimm?"
voice "vfx.Spieler/Sp.B0101.v.ogg"
Sp "Ich werd's überleben, ich brauch nur etwas Schlaf."

Code: Select all

While running game code:
  File "game/B0.rpy", line 646, in script
    voice "vfx.Spieler/Sp.B0101.v.ogg"
IOError: Couldn't find file '['vfx.Doris/Do.B0101.p.ogg', 'vfx.Doris/Do.B0101.p.Daniel.ogg']'.

Can you throw together a replication of this problem?

Actually, never mind - I think the problem is simply that voice isn't specced to take a list of sound files - it only takes a single file.
