Exception Occurred While Loading Image. SOLVED

[Blantech]

So I got my first one going and well I felt pretty good about it but noticed I was stashing every thing in the game folder it was just so ugly, so I made an images folder to stash it all in then I made subfolders to organize it. Well it broke everything even the title menu stuff, which i moved to the gui folder like another perosns game I had laying around did, I poked around his code with his permision was just a tech demo for his latest project he put out. So I did what he did, bamn now I got my title menu stuff going again ok good. So I then start work on using my new png assets for a test run I done dialogue with out images, and even did some fiddling around made a naming event for the player charactor. I was feeling pretty confident then I added in a scene to laod a background image and bamn, I am a newb again..

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

The code I got for the intro is:

Code: Select all

scene proom with fade

    z "You decided to test this, well here we go!"

    "What is your name?"

    # The phrase in the brackets is the text that the game will display to prompt
    # the player to enter the name they've chosen.

    $ player_name = renpy.input("What is your given name?") or "Me" #check for no input in name is done here
    $ player_name = player_name.strip() # it may interfere with the splitting code if it strips space chars mid-string, need to check on that. If it's a problem use .rstrip() instead.

    python:
        if player_name == "":
            player_name="Me" # If the player can't be bothered to choose a name, then we choose a suitable one for them:
    # Now the other characters in the game can greet the player.
    "Let's begin the adventure [player_name]!"

    # This ends the game.
    

I made a stash of all my image file set ups before label start before the character definitions

Code: Select all

#Eileen
image enormal = "images\eileen_sprites\eileenstatic1.png"
image eunhappy = "images\eileen_sprites\eileenothappy.png"

#Ashley
image anormal = "images\ashley_sprites\ashley\ashleystatic1.png"
image ajoy = "images\ashley_sprites\ashleyjoy1.png"

#Jess
image jnormal = "images\jess_sprites\jessstatic1.png"
image junhappy = "images\jess_sprites\jessunhappy1.png"



#backgrounds
image ent = "images\background\sentrance1.png"
image 1stf = "images\backgrounds\1stfloorh1.png"
image proom = "images\background\room1.png"

define e = Character("Eileen")
define a = Character("Ashley")
define z = Character("Zalzany")
define j = Character("Jess")

Alright no idea why it didn't like \ but / and renaming the folder bg fixed it. Is \ and / the key factor? it seems to be misreading the names i do have language packs installed on my windows to play Japanese games but I typed it in English...

[xavimat]

Do not use \ in renpy. Use always / in fact, \b is used for backspace and \r is used for "carriage return" as \n is used for newline (see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/679 ... d-behavior and https://docs.python.org/2.0/ref/strings.html )

Also, avoid using names starting with numbers ("1stf"), start all your variable_names with letters or undescores (but better only letters)
