Image presplash help

[Andredron]

Hello everyone, help with one problem. How to make sure that the presplash image is not shown in the first run, but it works in the second? I understand that I need to find the presplash class, which is responsible for the image and register the condition, but I cannot find it. help me please

Are you sure you mean the presplash, or the splashscreen?

The presplash is seldom used anymore, and is completely different to the splashscreen.
Thats not to say its useless, i want to make use of it myself as my laptop appears unresponsive when first launching a renpy game, but it seems counter-intuitive to make it not appear on the first run, but then on subsequent runs.

I'm talking about the picture that appears before the launch of the application) I honestly remember from the version of the old renpy presplash that it was such a thing) Well, I just need that in 1 launch it was not, and in the second there is a kind of pun, a tribute to the old version that constantly flew out and the inscription was displayed at startup. Of course I can live without her, but I just wanted to realize this))

As best I can tell you need to set a configuration variable.
https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/config.h ... plash_time
Give this some time, and add presplash.jpg to the game directory.
Be aware that Google play and iOS store forbid artificially lengthening start up time, so may not accept games that use a presplash that is too long, if you plan to release to a mobile market.

iOS doesn't even accept the presplash as it has been removed within renpy.

Renios has been upgraded to use SDL 2.0.4 rc1. This improves compatibility with iOS 8, and makes it possible to keep the launchscreen displayed until Ren'Py fully starts. As a result, support for the ios-presplash image is no longer necessary, and has been dropped

A crutch version of what I want:

copy_file.rpy

Code: Select all

init python:
    def unarchive(original_filename, new_filename):
        import os
        import os.path
 
        new_filename = config.basedir + "/" + new_filename
        dirname = os.path.dirname(new_filename)
        
        if not os.path.exists(dirname):
            os.makedirs(dirname)
        
        orig = renpy.file(original_filename)
        new = file(new_filename, "wb")
        
        new.write(orig.read())
        
        new.close()
        orig.close()

script.rpy

Code: Select all

laber splashscreen:
    if not persistent.one: #Add once and that's enough
        $ unarchive("images/presplash.jpg", "game/presplash.jpg") #Copy the image into the game folder, and logically, it should work
    $ persistent.one = 1
