Nice. That's cool. What about replacing a whole background image, or an animation?
That's (currently) not supported. This would be very complex and I can't think of a reasonable use case where you would want this.

Can I ask that you change the mod hotkeys to shift+Z or shift+X instead of shift+M, cause every time I try to rename "Landlady" to "Mother" it activates the mod console... Also any chance of *wildcards? i.e. *love to bring up sislove, momlove, deblove, myrnalove... If you type in love you get nothing. If it is sis_love then you get everything by typing _love...

Good job!

One suggestion. Don't know if you can change the hotkey (Shift+M) to something else like ALT+M. Suppose you want to name your character, 'Michael' or 'Mary'? See the problem?

Just updated the mod to change the hotkey to Alt+M

I like the wildcard idea. I'll implement something like it in a future version.

URM 0.8 is out!

In the video below you can see that URM can do all kinds of awesome stuff with choices:
  • You can see hidden choices and select them
  • Show the conditions on which a choice is visible
  • See python code behind a choice
  • Change the choice text


With this URM update the fan signature is also updated. You can grab it here.

1 year anniversary AND version 1.0

First about URM's 1 year anniversary tomorrow. I didn't plan it like this, I just found out yesterday that I was going to publish version 1.0 one year after the first release.
I guess it's only fair if I brought some cake:

Also... version 1.0 is here!
This doesn't mean URM is finished. It means that all features I initially wanted to implement (and even more) are done.
There's still more to come.

Version 1.0 changes:
  • Huge interface redesign
  • Movable/draggable windows
  • Added changelog to URM
  • A lot of small "under the hood" changes
You can see a full tour of URM 1.0 here:

Hey 0x52, I haven't posted in a while, and just downloaded your current version of URM -- it's still the best Mod I can think of, thank you so much (again) for doing god's work here by adding new features and keeping it updated! Happy birthday, and have a great time!

EDIT: I believe it's the game, all the modders are having fits with it. Looks like the dev reversed the renpy archive key for some reason. Game thread has a number of posts about it.

0x52 I suspect this is an issue in the game itself, Powers That Be, that was just updated and seems to be using the latest version of RenPy, but I'm getting this error when I launch the game, don't even get to a main screen. Your "latest mod at the time" for the previous release of the game (v0.3.8), worked fine. The new release v0.4.0 doesn't.

Luckily for you. I do like a challenge. The attached version of URM works on Powers That Be.

I have to think about if I want the attached URM to replace the current release. It should also work on any other RenPy game, but it's something specific to only Powers That Be.

Yep, that worked fine, thanks for the effort to track down what was wrong!!

1) Mod author will have to answer that. But the mod works in the latest renpy games I've used it in, with only one exception.
2) No, it does not "unlock" anything.

URM 1.1 is here

This release adds "wildcard search", as requested in this post (by Weasel_Face), and more!
Here are the full release notes:
  • Added wildcard search (you'll have to enable it in the search options)
    • * : Will match any character
    • ? : Matches any single character
    • Examples:
      • 0x52 will only match exactly 0x52
      • *0x52* will also match Hi, I'm 0x52! Who are you?
      • 0*52 will match 0x52, 0xxx52 and 052
      • 0?52 will match 0x52, but will NOT match 0xxx52 or 052
  • Added search options quick toggles (at the right top of the search tab)
  • Improved UI scaling (The URM interface now scales correctly on different resolution games)
  • Added explanation for all search options
  • Added option to rename remembered variables
  • Now remembering selected tab and searchtype after closing the game
  • Fixed: Crash when searching through numeric dict keys
And a screenshot:
