how to do animation
Is it possible to animate my visual novel, besides making the characters blink.
Is it easy, if so please give me the lines i should type in.
Also, after I click build distributions, I can't open my game. Why?

Re: how to do animation
Despite being phrased not exactly well, this seems to be a Ren'Py question.

Re: how to do animation
There are a number of ways to do animations. You can use the old way ofLittleblackcat wrote:Is it possible to animate my visual novel, besides making the characters blink.

Code: Select all
image character laughing = Animation("laughing01.png", 0.2, "laughing02.png", 0.2, "laughing03.png", 0.2)
Code: Select all
image character laughing:
"laughing01.png"
0.2
"laughing02.png"
0.2
"laughing03.png"
0.2
repeat
You can also pre-animate your image and save it as some animated format that Ren'py supports and just define that.
Build Distributions creates an archive with all of the files of your game.Littleblackcat wrote:Also, after I click build distributions, I can't open my game. Why?
You can't execute files within archives that are dependent upon other files.
The only way to run an archived game is to first extract it to a folder somewhere on your computer and then launch the game from that folder.

Re: how to do animation
Actual information? What did you do? Why can't you open it? What happens? What errors are you getting? We can't help you if you don't really make it clear what's wrong.Littleblackcat wrote:No it didn't work! i moved the files elsewhere but i can't open them!!

Re: how to do animation
Can you try renaming things - both the files on disk, and the names in options.rpy, so there aren't any special characters in the name? The use of colon and emdash seems that they might have the potential to confuse things.
If that doesn't work, please zip up the project and send me the files. (Either via pm, or email to pytom@bishoujo.us.) I'll debug things here and fix them shortly.
