So I am making a game for NanoRenO and I've run into an issue. I want to play a music track on a splash screen that happens before the "Main Menu" but it cuts off at the main menu. I understand why, but is there a way to prevent that? Also "Music" normally repeats so would that be affected or no? The track itself is 53 seconds, if that's important at all.
Here's what I have for a splash
Code: Select all
label splashscreen:
scene black
with Pause(1)
play music "Fantasy_Game_Background.mp3"
show text "{size=100}{color=#ffffff}Made with Ren\'Py{/color}{/size}"
with dissolve
with Pause(2)
hide text with dissolve
with Pause(1)
show text "{size=100}{color=#ffffff}PhZX Games presents...{/color}{/size}"
with dissolve
with Pause(2)
hide test with dissolve
with Pause(1)
stop sound fadeout(3.0)
return
label start:
Thanks!

I don't recall if I ever ran into this issue, but logically, it should play the same track, if you set the main menu music to the same song.
Ren'Py will see it already playing and should just continue without interruption.
Do you need a splashscreen? Are you able to put your current splashscreen into a presplash ?

@Imperf3kt
nah thanks, what I've got I like. And I originally thought ren'py would just start the track over if I set it to menu theme, and it would interrupt the flow. thanks though!
