Not every hero wears a cape and you my friend, you're a goddamn Goat. This shit works like a charm on every game I tried so far. Man it's annoying af when some games don't give us any option to remove those pesky black boxes that take away from the experience. Amazing work by Penfold Mole

Can anyone help me with how to increase the "quick menu" text size.
It’s hard to play on Android with this.

Thank you very much for providing this tool. It's added to the enjoyment of running renpy games. Hitting the 'h' key all the time is a big pita. Problem now solved.

Your readme and update text files are worth reading through too. I can tell you put a lot of work into your project, and you've done a great job.

You've also earned #1 on Bing when searching for renpy transparency. Can't get more accolades than that.

There seems to be a compatibility problem of my patch with older versions of Ren'Py.
If the Ren'Py SDK that the game was made with is older than v6.99.14, the game will crash with the transparency patch v2.4.7 and newer.

Currently there is one game that I'm aware of, that is being actively developed, but apparently is made using an old and incompatible Ren'Py SDK:

Ren'Py games that have already been completed or abandoned before January 2018 are more likely incompatible, too.

What is the solution to the problem?
In case after adding my patch to the game the game will crash with an error message:
File "game/y_outline.rpy", line 157: u'pagekeys' is not a keyword argument or valid child for the viewport statement.
Then you can use the old transparency patch v2.4.6 attached below.

I love this little mod, it allows me to focus on the story, not the ridiculous text box, or the menu under the text box, every is very discrete and not in your face. I recommend this to everyone who hates the text box, but be aware it only works in renpy and not all games are compatible that make changes to the text box or menu, it will cause this mod not to work.

Hi there,
Love the mod.
Do have some comments about 2.6.3.

I thought the maximum number of letters used to define color was 6.
In the Pandora's Box section you are now using 8 F's changed from 6 in v2.6.1.
Every other color definition you have only has 6 characters.
Lines 625 to 627.

Line 830 now has "Uknown" was "Unkown" before.

Apparently it is impossible to define constants on condition in Ren'Py. This kind of construction doesn't work:
Code:
if condition:
    define c = Character ("bla", color="#FF0000")
RenPy will just define constant "c" no matter if condition is true or false.

It means that I have to roll back versions to v2.3, that is - remove all overrides for specific games until I can figure out (or not) how to accomplish what I tried earlier.

Sorry!

Until then here are separate patch files for View of Family and Dual Family:
Ummm... it's either a constant, or it is not. You can't have a conditional constant in any programming language that I know of. That's why they are called constants, because they are always the same, never changing.

What you want to use in this case is the following;
Python:
if condition:
    default c = Character ("bla", color="#FF0000")
"default" sets a variable up (as opposed to a constant) which can be changed on the fly and so can be used in a conditional expression like that.

Might be a weird quiestion, but is there a mod that does the opposite of this one?
Sometimes i play games where the text is hard to read due to white textwith alot of white backgrounds.

Hi,
I am trying the following to change the font size in the game " The Way Love Goes " but it does not seem to work, the same code works in
"My New Memories".
Any suggestions?
Please.
Thank you.

I have this code that I modified, in the games that I tested, I managed to change the opacity and the font size, the only problem is that this code replaces the entire game option, if the original game has more options, the mod will replace everything, I wanted know if there's a way to improve it

Not a programmer but looking at Penfold Mole 's mod it does a general overwrite then has specific exceptions and special code for certain games that have more advanced gui features.
