With regards to this, I have two questions:
1) Is it possible to apply the same dissolve transition to the side image?
2) What can I do to make the side image and dialogue box stay on screen during the sprite transitions? (I have more than one, and this issue happens with all of them.)
Between sprite facial expression transitions, the dialogue box and the side image disappear and reappear, instead of staying on the screen throughout. To elaborate, one such transition in the above code looks like this:
Code: Select all
show girl-curious with dissolve
$ girl = 2
g "Are you learning how to use Ren'Py?"
show girl-happy with dissolve
$ girl = 0
g "That's great! Ren'Py is a lot of fun!"
Here is my script for reference:
Code: Select all
init:

Any help on this would be much appreciated!I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.
