To create a .rpy file you first need to enable file extensions in your os.
If you are on windows, it's like this
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
Otherwise I'm sure you can find how to do it with a quick internet search.

Then just create a text file and change the .txt to . rpy

I don't know exactly what you are planing to do but you will probably need some knowledge about coding in python, otherwise you will either make something that doesn't do anything or create a buggy mess.

Also to make or edit .rpy files I would suggest using notepad++ or something similar rather than the basic notepad app.

PS : you can use unren to decompile .rpa and .rpyc files to get the .rpy files.
I see tyvm for this info I think it's best for me to not try anything before learning python.

The only "coding" experience I had with renpy was me just unlocking full gallery with

#if not renpy.seen_image(i):
# return True

So i thought eh shurley if I just edit the text on some event that had bad English / or make poorly done incest mod because people have been asking and since it's original creator hasn't updated and it would be just coding experience shurley I wouldn't break anything.

But I think this is too advance stuff for me at least for now.

If you just edit text it shouldn't cause any problem.
But if you want to make it so that a patch can switch incest on the you'll have to create variables for pet name that turn into family relations with the patch and that requires a bit of coding knowledge.

The big downside to just editing the text is that whenever the game gets an update you will have to make sure that all the files you have modified are properly updated with the new code if there is some.
Or you will have to redo all the changes you made in the previous version.

The best way to do what you want to do with little to no coding knowledge would be to make a separate file with replace command, I've seen some games with this kind of patch.
With a replace command you would have to write the original text and the text you want to be shown instead.
As long as those lines of dialogue aren't changed in an update then those replacements would still work on newer version of the game.
