I tried looking around before posting this because I really don't want to ask a question if it's already been answered. But alas, I haven't found anything and I'm tired of searching... So here it goes...
About Images:
What sizes do they need to be for characters and BGs alike?
Can I use any file type? Or should I just stick with .png?
Please forgive me if I've asked something silly.

Re: Image Sizes
For BG's I suggest you stick to standard LCD sizes like...Xino wrote:What sizes do they need to be for characters and BGs alike?
Code: Select all
800x600 pixels
960x600 pixels
1024x768 pixels
Also, you should tell ren'py which screensize you are using... so things will display properly...
Code: Select all
init -1 python hide:
config.developer = True
config.screen_width = 800
config.screen_height = 600

Re: Image Sizes
You can use a lot of file types in Ren'Py. As a file type, PNG is nice for having good quality and partial transparency, but note that it might not be wise to use it for all graphics because of the size of PNG files. It is good for sprites, since they usually need partial transparency for the borders, but JPG is often better for backgrounds and CGs since it can take a lot less space (remember to compress your files!) and there is no need for transparency. It is good to keep the size of your image files as small as possible so that your game will be easy and quick to download, even for people with slow connections.Xino wrote:Can I use any file type?
