HTBAH Android Port Build Failed

Studio Mystic · Jun 13, 2021

So I'm trying to build distributions in RenPy for my game , but it's not working. The error code is way over my head so any help would be great. Thanks.

Code:

Ren'Py 7.4.5.1648

Updating project.

Creating assets directory.

Creating expansion file.

Packaging internal data.

I'm using Gradle to build the package.
To honour the JVM settings for this build a new JVM will be forked. Please consider using the daemon: https://docs.gradle.org/6.1.1/userguide/gradle_daemon.html.
Daemon will be stopped at the end of the build stopping after processing

F:\Game Dev Network Folder\RenPy\renpy-7.4.5-sdk\rapt\project\renpyandroid\src\main\java\org\renpy\android\Constants.java:10: error: integer number too large: 2148338547

How big is your Windows or Mac build? This error seems to indicate that your Android build is bigger than 2048 megabytes, which is the upper limit for an Android build. (And even a build that makes it in just under that limit probably won't install on a lot of devices.)

If you're making a build this big, you probably need to do some serious image compression if you want to make an Android build.

Try crunching the game files down
https://f95zone.to/threads/yac-yet-another-cruncher-a-game-compactor-v3-1c.55421/

Keep a Master Copy of the files safe in case something goes wrong and some fans prefer an uncompressed version so you can keep it in the Disney Vault

The game is 3GB and growing because it's captured in 4K and has video animations. Why does RenPy have a build size limit? That's pretty backward for 2021. 2GB is tiny for a modern game. Even if I ruin the image quality by dropping everything down to 1080p, the build still comes in at 1.9GB. Which is right at the limit... And I'm not even done developing the game. One more update would push this right back over 2GB. Is there a workaround?

Not really for Android unless you want to school a horde of new fans on how to install it.

You could try making a build that works with JOIPlay

Telling players to install using PC assumes the player has access to a PC.

Even if it is 2021 some phones only have 4-16GB of total memory unless the user buys an SD Card. Keep in mind you'll be dealing with users that have no clue what the gibberish above even means or what version of Android they are even using.

Then there is the whole thing that the screen is like 5x3in so 4K and 1080p is wasted on this user base...

However this is all for Android Users, the PC Master Race (PC, Linux, Mac) don't really need to worry that much.

Ren'Py Tom I think does Android as a hobby so getting the kinks out isn't a top priority. Don't think he even updated Security Permissions for Android 11 which is causing some issues as Players are getting locked out of transferring their saves.

I'd actually crunch it more, the quality won't really be noticed on a phone because of the screen size, but allows more room for updates, otherwise it's as others have said, moving to joiplay
