When using v2.6.3 with Midnights Paradise Is it possible to remove the grey background on the MC namebox? Everything goes except the MC grey background. Thanks.

I was able to resolve this issue by removing the textbox background call seen in " variables_anim_chars.rpy "
character.mc = Character("[mc.name]", namebox_background="#606060")

v2.4.9
- Override for the thin font in "A New Home" [Envixer] (v0.7) added
- Redesigned in-game UI to be less intrusive, smaller and more transparent in Babysitter [T4bbo] (v0.1.4)
Most extensive changes for a single game in this patch so far. Details in the comments of the conf file.
A sample of the changes:
original and patched

I tried your patch on My Bimbo Dream and got an error message. Using JustJane's suggestion above seems to have solved the issue though.

Really great patch by the way, I've used it lots. Thanks for making it.

It doesn't seem to work on College Bound

Edit: scratch that, it's working fine, pretty good

TY for this amazing mod.
If you can share some of your knowledge, is there a way to add more options in the quick menu? for example restore the Hide, Quick Save, Quick Load buttons for games that removes it? Also, a custom button for accessing the console?

When using this mod with Banking on Bella, the quickmenu also disappears. This is the only game I've encountered where this happens. Is there any way around this?

Sorry for not following my own thread for a long time.

I just posted a small update (v2.6.4) to the transparency patch, mostly to address the issue of crashing Ren'Py v8-based games.
I actually fixed the problem quite a while back but had no time to post it then and forgot about it later. Sorry!

There's not much anything else new in there.

Any chance you could automatically change the dialogue to be white with a black border so we can see the text regardless of what the dev uses? I've noticed that most of the time when the devs don't have transparency settings, they also don't have a font color that can be seen properly in a transparent text box.

Yeah, you can do that. penfold-mole mentioned it somewhere.
Something like that (doesn't work every time) :

Thanks, but it affects only some text, the rest still the same.

I created my own mod which I add to most games that need it. I worked on making certain it doesn't alter the game at all. As I need things, I program t hem in myself and add to this. I made it in modules so I can easily get rid of any feature I don't need or doesn't work by deleting it as none of the files rely upon the others.

I honestly just made this for my own use, but I created a zip up with a readme inside of explaining what each file does etc... I'll attach the entire mod for anyone interested (there's an RPY for getting rid of the text box as well in this)...

I guess this game (Welcum to the City) must have been written in a special way because
