Thanks!
Every time it's going to the animated scene all I see are squares, any way to fix this?
Hi. This is one of the harder-to-pinpoint problem many people have had, so think it's time for reiteration.
The problem is tied to either a video- or sound-driver issue (the animations requires both despite there being no audio).
Video:
Check if you can open the video files properly outside the game envioment. If not install a codex pack (like

).
Make sure to update your graphics-driver (this is really important!).
If upgrading your video drivers does not fix the problem, you should disable OpenGL support. To disable OpenGL support:
1. Hold down shift while starting Ren'Py.
2. From the "Graphics Acceleration" menu that appears, choose "Prefer Software Renderer".
3. Choose "Continue".
Audio:
Update Audio drivers, but check next step.
DMD wont display these errors during the initiationprocess for some reason, but other games might. Try other renpy games to check for this.

should display it properly, but try any other renpy games. You should recieve an error when booting up the game. An error that have been confirmed is:
File "renpy/audio/renpysound.pyx", line 61, in renpy.audio.renpysound.check_error (gen\renpy.audio.renpysound.c:955)
raise Exception(e)
Exception: DirectSoundCreate: Mixing buffer was lost

I need to disable main speakers and turn on monitor speakers. After this extra content in DmD works fine and the other game works well too. It looks like Renpy needs my video card sound device(?). It's Nvidia HD Audio.
See if any of this helps.
Hopefully other will catch onto this, as it happens for quite a few people.
