Thanks for letting me know about it!
I haven't tried that game and don't have enough time to look at it ATM, but I'll do that when I can.
My guess is, that talking and thinking backgrounds are defined in different places. They may use the same image file, but they're defined in different places.

If you want to take a look at it yourself, I'd recommend that you search for the background image file in the game\gui subfolder and after you find the name of the file, try to find it from all the rpy files in the game subfolder.
I usually use grep for doing that, but Notepad++'s "find in all opened documents" button in the search dialog works very well, too. Just open all rpy files and use it to find that file name. You should be able to get a hit on the thoughts definition somewhere.

Thanks, it works. The variable exp isn't related, it's for the faces. Had to unren the rpa files and found the image textbox_thinking.png in gui folder and this in script.rpy:

define bw = Character("Black Widow", image="black_widow")
define bw_t = Character("Black Widow Thinking", image="black_widow", window_background="gui/textbox_thinking.png")
define ca = Character("Captain America", image="captain_america")
define ca_t = Character("Captain America Thinking", image="captain_america", window_background="gui/textbox_thinking.png")
define ca_and_bw = Character("Black Widow and Captain America")
define both = Character("Both")
define nf = Character("Nick Fury", image="nick_fury")
define nf_t = Character("Nick Fury Thinking", image="nick_fury", window_background="gui/textbox_thinking.png")
define mh = Character("Maria Hill", image="maria_hill")
define mh_t = Character("Maria Hill Thinking", image="maria_hill", window_background="gui/textbox_thinking.png")

Also there is a folder "version_scripts" with the scripts for each version and MCs (male and female) with similar declarations.
Just deleted window_background="gui/textbox_thinking.png" in all the files and works! I can't believe it.

Thank you for guide me.

Great! And you're welcome.

I'll add an override to the next version of my patch for this game, so there would be no need to modify its files in the future (except for any new characters added to the next version(s) of this game)

 

[UncleVT]

(except for any new characters added to the next version(s) of this game)

Yes, that's seems what's going to happen.

[Penfold Mole]

Yes, I actually already know, but thanks for telling me.

I've been implementing some new features to the patch and wanted to release an update with those features, but it looks like it takes me some more time because of some games where modern "standard" Ren'Py screens and styles are missing... kind of ripped out, so I have to build my own configuration page almost completely independent from those to keep the (few) games from crashing...

I guess I will release an update to address some game updates without any of those new things. Soon, but most likely not tomorrow.
I guess it's now my turn to delay an update because of some stuff... At least I'm not milking anybody

v2.5.6
- Big City's Pleasures [Porcus] 0.2b - removed "hardcoded" grey color and italic style from the dialog text (italic dialog text plus quotes around it plus italic character name was marking the thoughts of characters, this only removes italic from the text, italic names and quotes will remain as they were.
- The Personal Assistant [JLCreation] v1.0 - default character name color is now set from dark grey to white, removed "Story Teller" character name.
- Heavy Five [Nottravis] Ch 1 - removed custom dialog background images with integrated portraits and names, added real name labels, repositioned name labels to sensible coordinates and reduced dialog box height.
- Earth's Sexiest Heroes [Kappuru Games] v0.3 - removed character dialog backgrounds
- Where The Heart Is [CheekyGimp] overrides updated for the new characters in EP9

 

[Penfold Mole]

v2.5.7
- Echoes Of Lust [Inceton] Ep 3 - narrator font set to Ren'Py default
- Freeloading Family [FFCreation] v0.15 - overrides updated for the new character

I was wondering can this renpy mod help with certain games that has white background and white text at the same time and fix to be different color ?? some games uses certaint color outlines but because of that it is sometimes unreadible for me due to eye site not being optimal like it used to be.

Oh, you know, I've been actually working on it . It's just not really ready yet.

What do you think about the possibility to switch between the normal text mode:

and this kind of mode:

Darkness of the thick outline could be adjusted by just tapping a key (haven't tried to add it yet, but it is possible). What do you think, should it be darker by default?

Text size is also adjustable and I intend to add the possibility to adjust dialog box size (height and width) later on, so larger text could fit inside it or it could be made smaller when the text size is smaller.

I just haven't had time to create a well working configuration and help page to those settings.
I'd like to work on it, I just don't have enough free time for it now.

 

[Dependable_223]

yes the second one is much better and it ertainly help. Thanks for looking into this.

[UncleVT]

Just you to know, @Penfold Mole. This isn't working in Babysitter new version.

 

[Penfold Mole]

Apparently I accidentally mixed up the new unfinished version I was working on and the one I was supposed to be posting as 3.5.7.
It's really quite a mess in there
I'm really sorry about that and thank you very much for telling me!

I'll fix it ASAP.
