Boy/Girl menu as yes/ no?

[ChillTaco]

Anyway, I want to make a boy girl option thing. I know what your saying, just use the normal choice menu thingy. BUT I DON WANA, cause i cant seem to get the other choices to have there own img's. You see, im a goober kay?

I want the boy/girl choice menu to have different select pngs from the rest of the choices. And each choice has its own picture, like you know.... one choice has a boy, one has a girl.

Now ima sound like a tard here but, can it be like a yes/no action after you press Start Game? Im thinking it has to be its own menu. Can the renpy have two separate scripts? And ahh the yes/no action would open a different one?

I really have no idea what Im doing.

Goobs can stare off into the English and see nothing but a blank page. I dont know anything about anything.

Hi,
This may be what you're looking for ChillTaco

Adding sound effects to the main menu buttons:

To add sound effects that play when you click on in-game buttons, find the following code in “options.rpy”:

# style.button.activate_sound = "click.wav"
# style.imagemap.activate_sound = "click.wav"
Just like with the main menu music, all you have to do here is change the file name, copy/paste the sound effect file into the game folder, and remove the pound sign before the code. These sound effects apply to all the buttons in the game - including the ones on the main menu, in-game options, etc.

I got that from here -> http://fuckyeahrenpy.tumblr.com/post/87 ... -main-menu
Idk about the rest of your questions n.n"

Yep new question.

Alright, let me help you. I made a learning game where the player could select "I'm a boy" or "I'm a girl" and hear either a boy or girl voice, which ever one they choose.

Here's my declared images, for reference:

Code: Select all

image gconfused = "Gconfused1a.png"
image bconfused = "Bconfused1a.png"

Start with a menu. "Select boy or girl" and have the appropriate buttons.

Code: Select all

label genderchoice:
"Are you a girl or boy?"
menu:
    "Girl":
        $playersprite = "girl"
    "Boy":
        $playersprite = "boy"

If you know about flags and variables, the above should be easy for you.


I'm not sure if you need different scripts for dialogue specific to gender-available romance or different scenarios based on gender? Otherwise, it's very easy to keep it to one script by doing the following to use the correct sprite:


Here's how I had it show the appropriate sprites, if you want the dialogue to be the same with certain characters (

Code: Select all

if playersprite == "girl":
    show gconfused
if playersprite == "boy":
    show bconfused

(gconfused and bconfused were sprites with those expressions, declared with shortcuts above in the code.)

Same thing with any audio, if you have voices:

Code: Select all

if playersprite == "girl":
    play sound "Anna_8.ogg"
if playersprite == "boy":
    play sound "Colin_7.ogg"

(my actors happened to be two kids, I labeled using their names.)

Does this clear things up for you?
