Migrating from readback.rpy to New GUI History?

#1 Post by sapiboonggames »

Hey there! :D

I've an old project that I'd like to do a revamp on. One aspect I'd like to do is migrating the message log system (which is currently using readback.rpy) to the Text History from Renpy's new GUI system. I thought that I only needed to copy gui.rpy files to the project and use the code for text history, but there's nothing showing up (it seems that none of the dialogues are recorded in _history_list)

Please do tell me what steps I need in order to use the New GUI's Text History system in my project which is still using Legacy UI! (I only want the text history part :( )

Try to create new project and copy scripts of your game in to it. Then adjust the gui (recreate your legacy menus).
