How do i speed up my transitions? (SOLVED)

[amaturemanga]

Hey everyone i'm trying to add transitions to my sprites and everything is working fine there's no problem with. However the transitions seem to be a bit slow. I was wondering how i could speed it up. Atm i'm showing and hiding the sprite using blinds and for facial changes and poses i'm using dissolve. But i'd like to get it more like how it is in fate/stay night. Also the blinds seem to be a bit thick can i make them thinner somehow? Here's the script for the scene it's happening in:

Code: Select all

show wakeup2 with dissolve
show Saki impatient with blinds
s "\"Seriously, you know you're really pathetic, right? You need to start getting up on your own..\""
nvl clear
window hide fade



player "\"Haha, like your one to talk. Wasn't it the other day that i had to wake you up?\""
hide Saki impatient with dissolve
show Saki surprised with dissolve
s"\"Huh?\""
hide Saki surprised with dissolve
show Saki mad1 with dissolve
s "\"Idiot!\""
hide Saki mad1 with dissolve
show Saki blush with dissolve
s"\"Hmph. Idiot, you know very well i was sick that day.\""

story "Meet Saki Itsuka. My impatient next door neighbor and childhood friend."
story "Five years ago, my parents got a job offer in America."
story "Ever since that day, she's been coming over everyday to help me out around the house."
nvl clear
window hide fade

player "\"Hehe, careful now. That attitude is gonna make you fat someday.\""
hide Saki blush with dissolve
show Saki annoyed with dissolve
s "\"Hey! What's that suppose to mean? Are you trying to get me to hit you again?\""
player "\"Oh come on Saki. You know i'm just trying to mess with you.\""
hide Saki annoyed with dissolve
show Saki blush with dissolve
s "\"Yeah, yeah, just hurry up and get up already we're going to be late for class if you don't hurry.\""
hide Saki blush with blinds
story "Hestantly i get up stretching, and hurry out of my room as Saki pushs on my back to get me to hurry up."
nvl clear
window hide fade

hide wake2
stop music
show breakfast with blinds
play music "Feelin Good.mp3"
player "\"Yeah,yeah i know. I'm hurrying would you quit pushing me!\""


return

Try:

with Dissolve(insert number of seconds here)?

Not sure what the default is.

Or you can define a new transition.

Code: Select all

define fastdissolve = Dissolve(0.2)

To change the transition itself you'll have to use:
http://www.renpy.org/doc/html/transitio ... geDissolve

With a new image of your own creation.

How did you define fastblinds? Did you specify it correctly with the right image? (Btw if you edit the image you can make the blinds thinner.)

SundownKid linked to ImageDissolve for a reason. blinds and dissolve are defined in the common files (00definitions.rpy, to be precise) as the following:

Code: Select all

define blinds = ImageDissolve(im.Tile("blindstile.png"), 1.0, 8)
define dissolve = Dissolve(0.5)

ImageDissolve and Dissolve are different and you need to supply different information to define each. Therefore, if you want a faster version of blinds you need to use the following:

Code: Select all

define fastblinds = ImageDissolve(im.Tile("blindstile.png"), 0.2, 8)

As I said before, you can change the image (blindstile.png) to something else if you want thinner blinds.
