Ren'Py 6.12.0 Pre-Released

[jack_norton]

Sorry about all the posts. The UI is somehow broken too (GL, not SW).
Look at the screenshot in particular the vscrollbar and the ( X ) buttons on the left, you see they're wrongly displayed (before they were displayed correctly). Is like if somehow the frame width/height are broken ?

[PyTom]

I need to know how to replicate the bugs. Just knowing that they exist isn't enough to help me fix them.

[jack_norton]

Actually you can discard the first two, since the first was a bug in my code, and since I fixed it I cannot reproduce the memory leak one anymore as well.
The only one left is that UI bug above, though I changed the values in the Frame and now works fine - so maybe not a real bug, just behaves differently now?

[jack_norton]

This time I can reproduce this bug (albeit a very small/simple one). I have:

Code: Select all

image text_b = renpy.ParameterizedText(size=75,text_align=0.5,yalign=.5,outlines=[(7,"#0005"),(4,"#0007"),(2,"#000A"),(1,"#444")],style="bix2")

and then:

Code: Select all

    scene black with dissolve
    show text_b "{size=32}Special Thanks to{/size}{p}Tom Rothamel\n{size=32}For the great Ren'Py engine!{/size}" with dissolve
    $renpy.pause(2.0)

before it was centered like this:

now it's all left-aligned (I didn't change anything).

Has anyone else noticed the movies in their game being jumpy in 6.12.0? The video in mine are now very jumpy when they play. I encoded them using virtual dub using the Xvid codec.

The only thing I can think of is the new prediction code. I think I'll disable image prediction while a movie is running.

This time I can reproduce this bug (albeit a very small/simple one). I have:

Code: Select all

image text_b = renpy.ParameterizedText(size=75,text_align=0.5,yalign=.5,outlines=[(7,"#0005"),(4,"#0007"),(2,"#000A"),(1,"#444")],style="bix2")

When I remove style="bix2", I get the following screen, which looks like it should. I don't know what bix2 is defined as.

I did a few tests and as far as I can tell, the movies played okay in version 6.10.2 but didn't work in 6.11 Maybe no one used any movies of this type with 6.11?

[jack_norton]

When I remove style="bix2", I get the following screen, which looks like it should. I don't know what bix2 is defined as.

It's this:

Code: Select all

    style.create("bix2","default")
    style.bix2.background= None
    style.bix2.outlines =[(1,"#DFF5")]
    style.bix2.color="#DFF"
    style.bix2.font = "Share-TechMono.ttf"

I don't define any alignment, so I don't know why goes to the left ?

[PyTom]

I don't see it going to the left, in isolation. (Try it!) Are you showing text_b before this screen?

[jack_norton]

No I use it only for the ending credits. All the ending texts are left aligned, not just the screen I posted I have a savegame at end of the game just before the credits start, if I run it with 6.11 = no problem, if I run it with 6.12 I see that !! really strange, I don't understand what it could be!?
I even tried putting it at beginning of the game and I still have the bug...

[PyTom]

This is the entire code that I'm using in my 6.12.0 development tree. Try creating a new project, and replacing script.rpy with this.

Code: Select all

# This file contains the script for the Ren'Py demo game. Execution starts at
# the start label.
init python:
    style.create("bix2","default")
    style.bix2.background= None
    style.bix2.outlines =[(1,"#DFF5")]
    style.bix2.color="#DFF"

image text_b = renpy.ParameterizedText(size=75,text_align=0.5,yalign=.5,outlines=[(7,"#0005"),(4,"#0007"),(2,"#000A"),(1,"#444")], style="bix2")

        
# The game starts here.
label start:
    scene black with dissolve
    show text_b "{size=32}Special Thanks to{/size}{p}Tom Rothamel\n{size=32}For the great Ren'Py engine!{/size}" with dissolve
    $renpy.pause(2.0)

    return

I'm almost certain that you did:

show text_b ... at left

beforehand, and Ren'Py is remembering this. It's not clear why this would be different between 6.11 and 6.12 - I don't think it should be.

[jack_norton]

The test works fine - but the code is identic, I absolutely DIDN'T do "at left"!!!
Really I don't know what is happening in my game, but considering how complex it is... still weird!

[PyTom]

Try doing "hide text_b" before you show it.

It's also possible you've redefined transform default, or something like that.

[jack_norton]

Ah yes I changed transform default!

Code: Select all

init python:
    style.image_placement.xpos = 0.5;style.image_placement.ypos = 1.0
    style.image_placement.xanchor = 0.5
    style.image_placement.yanchor = 1.0
    config.default_transform = None
    config.transform_uses_child_position = True

[PyTom]

You want to set config.imagereference_respects_position to True, and I want to go and document that.
