I just ran through the entire demo script for Ren'Py and did not encounter a single issue with it running. no warnings, no lag (apart from full-layer zoom, but that's somewhat slow on XP as well, so it's not a Windows 7 issue), no crashes.
The only thing I could not test was MPEG-1 playback due to not having a sample file to test it with. I'm gonna see if I can't get my hands on one (or make one myself).
Given that the basic architecture's the same as Vista, this isn't much of a surprise to me. Still, unless Microsoft messes something up big-time, it's one less headache for PyTom

Re: Compatibility w/Windows 7 Public Beta - Windows 7 Build 7000
It seems like there's a problem with the renpy.movie_stop command (including pressing ESC while a movie is playing) in Windows 7 which results in renpy hanging and becoming nonresponsive. I do not know yet if it's due to movies in general being neglected or what. if someone has an MPEG-1 on hand, try this script out and see if it works.(this was what I substituted in for the corresponding section in the demo script. yeah, that makes Eileen a liar.)
Code: Select all
$ renpy.movie_start_displayable("sakucharat.mpeg", (640, 480), -1)
scene movie
show eileen happy
e "We also support playing mpeg movies, but we don't have one to show you right now."
hide movie
$ renpy.movie_stop()~Kitsune Zeta

That is randomly broken on every platform I've ever tried it on. I am not kidding.
The rest is left as an exercise for the reader.

Well... I tested it a few times, on WinXP and Vista, and the same error occured. It happened when showing the MPEG file as a displayable.Megaman Z wrote:It seems like there's a problem with the renpy.movie_stop command (including pressing ESC while a movie is playing) in Windows 7 which results in renpy hanging and becoming nonresponsive.
