If anyone else has issues with the dialogue box being so big and black, heres an easy fix.

Go into the game folder and open "gui.rpy" with notepad++ and paste the attached code after line 139.


Code:
# additional persistent variables begin here
define persistent.dialogueBoxOpacity = 1.5
# end extra variables

save the file and restart the game.

Hm, the way I see it, there are multiple problems with your approach: firstly, alpha ranges from 0.0 to 1.0, secondly the mentionend variable isn't read by the game, and thirdly there's no Transform on the background to begin with:
Bash:
game/screens.rpy
139:    background Image("gui/textbox.png", xalign=0.5, yalign=1.0)
So until Mukashi gets around to adding , either use the newest version which uses a much better background image (see comparison shots specifically selected for Wolf Plays™'s pleasure:

) or Penfold Mole's Transparent Text Box Mod to remove the background completely (background None).

Hope this helps!

I already have my own transparent text box mod. It's based off the one you posted. But, I removed the bloat in the script.

I cant be more than 200 words in and I already want to bang the mom. Any plans for an I-patch?
An I-Patch? For... incest? In my god-fearing, honest-to-goodness, no-nonsense, by-the-books VN? I cannot believe the audacity, the gall, the absolute disregard for the sanctity of morals that you have introduced to this thre-

Ah yeah. Slipped my mind. I'm having 'Jade Withdrawals'. Ahahaha
20 CCs of Jade, STAT! Her cuteness is known to prevent all kinds of ailments ;)

Your suggestions have been amazing, opacity slider will now be on the menu soon! I think I even know a few games to look at for that code. It feels good improving the game piece by piece :giggle:

Mukashi My apologies, I never meant to imply that your work was anything but wholesome. Please pardon my faux pas. What I meant to ask was if your dedication to producing upstanding and virtuous visual novels will ever result in fun for the whole family? ;)

Also, thank you for making my day with that additional render. You rock!! :love::love::love:

Hey Mukashi are there any plans to make Charlie a LI? By her looks and personality, all signs are pointing towards her being attracted to females at least in part, however I'm kinda into that tom-boy vibe she has going on.

I think it would be awful if some deviant were to steal the render files for MC's mom and little sisters and create some kind of secret unofficial family add on. If I had to make a guess on when such a terrible thing would happen, which it probably won't, it would likely be much later after a big chunk of the game was completed. But, this would be devastating, as I am GREATLY opposed to even the thought of blood relations having... relations. Hope that clears everything up :giggle:

Charlie is definitely a love interest, and she's the cutest Tomboy that I have! More from her and all the other girls to come(y)

Depends on what currency it is. If it's € or $ or £, you damn right. But if it's ¥ not really. That would be about 8,000 US.
That's still pretty high. I live in a city with a lot of graft, and I think a business license is about 2K per year. It would be almost impossible to open a small business if license fees are that high.

EDIT: I just looked it up. For a business like MCs in my city the license would be about $300 at most.

Both of you are right, for the sake of realism $50,000 yearly for permits does seem pretty outrageous. I'll change this in the next release, I'm thinking of making it an initial fee of $30,000 plus $5,000 annual renewal. I'll probably also have a few lines somewhere about the different things this encompasses, like the health licenses and such.

I still want it to be pretty high though, and the real reason will be shown later on. I mean, what unseen forces could possibly want to make MC's life as difficult as possible? ;)

Yeah. I wish my payments were in Yen also. As long as Jade is in the MC's life, everything will be golden. Ahahaha
