Ren'Py 6.1.0 Released

#1 Post by PyTom »

Ren'Py 6.1.0 "Once More Unto the Breach" has been released. This release marks a return to engine development after a series of release largely focusing on tool support. This release includes a number of internal changes, that improve performance and/or correctness. It is the first release to officially support Windows Vista. It introduces many new config variables controlling transitions, including automatic transition between ADV and NVL modes. It also includes the experimental new Imouto-mode, which allows for the automatic scaling of a game.

As this is the first release to officially support Vista, we strongly recommend that all projects (especially all NaNoRenO projects) upgrade to 6.1.0.

Downloads and a full release announcement can be found at:

http://www.renpy.org/wiki/renpy/releases/6.1.0

As I said above, I ask that all Ren'Py-using NaNoRenO participants switch over to 6.1.0, as it means that your games will run without problem on Vista.

Oh, and for people using the (previously undocumented) renpy.with function, note that it has been renamed to renpy.with_statement. This is because "with" is scheduled to become a keyword in Python.

Okay, I'm gonna switch it over. Praying that it's totally compatible with the 5.6 distribution of Ren'Py because if the traceback errors occur, I'm not gonna have any clue how to fix my code.
I'm not even the same person anymore

monele >>> you want to try the version of style.py found
here? That should fix your problem.

Once it's fixed, you may want to stop setting library.script_version.

Weee! The problem with the multiple ctc indicators in NVL mode has ben dealt with! :D
The other changes look good, too; I'll look forward to trying them out later.

Thanks for the release!

Thanks for the release Pytom :D. I have migrated all my scripts to 6.1.0 and all of them works right except Host Love. When I try to launch it with the new version I get this traceback:

I'm sorry, but an exception occured while executing your Ren'Py
script.

TypeError: setdefault() got an unexpected keyword argument 'xpos'

While executing game script on line 15 of renpy-6.1.0/common/00compat.rpy.
While executing python code on line 46 of renpy-6.1.0/common/00compat.rpy.

Maybe I have changed something without noticing it??? :?

This is a known bug. You should be able to work around it by removing any line that says "library.script_version" or "config.script_version". I'll cut a 6.1.0b that fixes it shortly.

Should these two variables be definitely abandoned? Or is it just that we shouldn't set them until we make a release?

They are automatically set when a release is made, so there's no longer any need to set them by hand.

I've released 6.1.0b to the same place. Unless someone reports another problem with it, I'll release it as 6.1.0 tomorrow.

I'm enjoying this Ren'Py release so far.

Quick question: How to set default autoforward time?

before I used something like

Code: Select all

init -1:
    
    python:
        if not persistent.set_text_cps:
            persistent.set_text_cps = True
            _preferences.text_cps = 50    
            _preferences.afm_time = 5
I see the place in the new options.rpy where to set

Code: Select all

        config.default_text_cps = 50
but going by intuition,

Code: Select all

        config.default_afm_time = 5
didn't work. Ideas?
