Renpy 7.4.5 refuses to make a new project at 1920x1080 resolution.

[henvu50]

Anyone know what could be causing this? Renpy 7.4.5 refuses to make a new project at 1920x1080 resolution.

During resolution selection when craeting a new project, I press the down arrow on my keyboard, until 1920x1080 resolution is highlighted, then I press enter. It goes to the next screen, then after I pick color it generates, but it's ALWAYS 1280x720, god damn it.

If I left click 1920x1080 nothing happens.
How do I pick 1920x1080 at this screen?

Here's how to fix it but I need to find out why I couldn't even select 1920x1080.

locaton: renpy-7.4.5-sdk\launcher\game
Edit this file: gui7.rpy

go to this section of the code and make sure it looks like this. I just changed the resolution in two places, from 1280x720 to 1920x1080 as the default.
RESTART THE LAUNCHER after you make the following changes:

Code: Select all

................................

    $ p = gui7.GuiParameters(
        "-",
        "-",
        1920,
        1080,
        accent,
        boring,
        light,
        None,
        False,
        False,
        False,
        "-"
    )

.............................

            [
                ((1066, 600), "1066x600"),
                ((1280, 720), "1280x720"),
                ((1920, 1080), "1920x1080"),
                ("custom", _("Custom. The GUI is optimized for a 16:9 aspect ratio.")),
            ],
            (1920, 1080),
            cancel=Jump("front_page"),

You can also set a custom resolution from the launcher when making a new project, that actually worked when I tried it, but I don't know if that does something entirely different.

I don't even know if changing the way I just did is good or bad. I just want to make the god damn game already, lol.

I hope someone can help me find out why I couldn't pick 1920x1080 in the first place?

Very curious. I was able replicate that pressing Enter creates project with currently bolded resolution and not highlighted one, but clicking worked properly for me.

Yea, this is so odd. When I left click the 1920x1080 resolution option, it won't move on to the next screen. I can spam click 1920x1080, and nothing happens.

I have my display settings set to 125% size, that sometimes causes problems, but I set it to 100%, and the problem still existed.

I'm baffled by this. I'm on a fairly fresh install of windows 100 64 bit.

I think the only thing that choice actually does is set this code at the top of gui.rpy:

Code: Select all

init python:
    gui.init(1920, 1080)

So you can probably just pick whatever then edit gui.rpy yourself. (The only full-screen artwork I can think of in the default theme is the plain blue-grey background for the main menu, and if that isn't already scaled there's surely no harm in doing so, and probably you're going to replace it anyway, right?)

There are about 50 images generated differently depending on selected resolution and over 100 lines changed. It is musch easier to just generate new project in desired resolution and simply copy over images and gui.rpy and screens.rpy

It also changes most of the values found in gui.rpy


For a simple fix, you can always just copy an old gui.rpy file and GUI folder (for the generated images) that was made in 1920x1080 previously

Ah, well, okay then.
