Hi there, i'v been playing a lot of Renpy games and until recently i had no problem.... but some games, not all of them, and sometimes..... they dont show the animation thats suppose to be following an image. But here the catch some of the transition work fine but not others??? Lately in "I have known you" and " Babysitter" i have this problem... I cant tell for IHKY because i just started it, but for babysitter it use to work fine until the last update (the scenes where Angelina try the vibrator in her room i can get see the transition from image to animation) but if i unren it all and check the vid all is fine with VLC. And in some games i have no problem with that...

Any idea whats happening?

Thanks.

more info needed
what's your system specs?
compare the animations that show and dont show. is the code different? is the type of video/codec different (mp4, webm, h264, vp9)? you can add the code and vids here as well

I think i figured out something but im not sur... i played with the SKIP button in the setting of the game, and i was able to see the transition in Babysitter.... but still nothing in IHKY..... Can this setting be stuck at SKIP without showing it?

Thanks for your answer.

I'm not grumpy, I'm just coded that way.

There's three options for the skip feature, and one of them make you skip the transition.
Like the issue still persist with a game that you just started, it's possible that its dev enabled it by default.

Is it possible then to remove the skip?
This might be a bit of a stretch, but might be worth trying.

Hit Shift+O to bring up the debug console in the Ren'PY game that you are trying to modify in removing the transitions skip.

Some Ren'PY games might have the debug console disabled by default, you will need to enable it like so:

File path of console file: (Name of Ren'PY Game)/renpy/common/00console.rpy

^ Edit the above file with notepad, and change the following line item to equal "True"

Then when in-game hit Shift+O to bring up the debug console and input the following code:

Code:
    show bg park
    $ renpy.transition(Fade(0.0, 0.5, 0.5))   
    $ renpy.pause(2, hard=True)
^ That might help to disable some of the transition skips in-game. Disclaimer: Not entirely sure though, but might be worth testing out to see if it does or not :unsure:
