Mod Ren'Py Universal Ren'Py Mod / URM [2.2.1] (mod any Ren'Py game yourself)

[theMickey_]

Hello, could someone help me?

So, I've just tested this (after I figured out which version of the game I had to download), and it still works:

1) It seems like every character in this game has it's on variable with the image_tag property:

​

For Tony it's t.image_tag, for Anne it's a.image_tag, for Ryan it's r.image_tag and so on -- there are roughly about 110 different image_tag variables. If you search for them (like in the screenshot above), you can also see all the usable values for those, like "Tony", "Anne" and "Ryan" for example.

2) If you want to change someones image, you just have to change its personal image_tag variable to the character you want to have displayed instead, like:

​

In this example I have replace the images for Tony, Anne and Ryan to "Deilvery guy".

3) The result looks like this:

--> ​

--> ​

In the screenshot you posted, you have replace t.image_tag (that's Tony's image!) with "Anne", so whenever Tony is talking, you should see Anne's picture. But your second screenshot shows a dialogue line from Anne herself, which (according to your first screenshot) shouldn't have changed at all.

Hope that helps!

Thank you, even so it is not the same as the first time that option appeared since before, in a dialogue I changed the image of x character for that of x character but in the next dialogue the image returned to the original, it is as if only It was changed for a single scene or a single dialogue

but in the next dialogue the image returned to the original

Can't reproduce that. If you follow my previous post, once you change a picture, it does not automatically switch back to the original -- I've just skipped through multiple days, and both Anne's and Tony's pictures are still that of a Delivery guy ;-)

I get this error with urm + 3rd party I-patch. Not sure if its interesting or helpful info but there it is.

Did you read the notes?

notes:
Not compatible with 0x52_URM.

Seems like this occurs because you have the "Skip splashscreen" option enabled.
Assuming you've enabled this option globally through another game, you could disabled it again that way and try again.

Hi, I have a quick question. I'm thinking of expanding my currently limited Ren'Py modding knowledge and modding some games just for personal use. So far I (mostly) just know how to do things like edit dialogue and images.

But some of the things that I would specifically like to learn how to do involve things like:

1) Creating different dialogue branches for certain scenes. For example; "Do you want to be more [Dominant] or [Submissive]?". Writing the branches separately and then adding a way in-game to choose which one gets used for the scene.

2) Create a new modded ending for a game using assets from other alternate endings.

Would this mod and its tutorials help me achieve those specific goals, or no? Thank you for any info or tips btw =)

Just to clarify: I'm talking about modding already completed games, not making my own (not yet anyway).

If it comes to that, I want to ask, is it possible to do something with my patch that it would work with your mod (if I install both your mod and my patch, my patch does not work, no bugs)?
p.s. I have zero coding knowledge, just know this function(text.replace), and a few others.

The piece of code you've attached is not related to the issue, it's this part:

class LabelOverridesSwitch(object):
    def __init__(self, passthru):
        self.ipatch = set()
        self.passthru = passthru
    def get(self, key, default=None):
        return key + "_i" if key in self.ipatch else self.passthru.get(key, default)

if not isinstance(config.label_overrides, LabelOverridesSwitch):
    config.label_overrides = LabelOverridesSwitch(config.label_overrides)

This partially breaks Ren'Py's label override mechanism.
You could change it to something like this to have at least some compatibility with Ren'Py's implementation, but it's still not perfect.

class LabelOverridesSwitch(object):
    def __init__(self, passthru):
        self.ipatch = set()
        self.passthru = passthru
    def get(self, key, default=None):
        return key + "_i" if key in self.ipatch else self.passthru.get(key, default)
    def __getitem__(self, key):
        return self.get(key)
    def __setitem__(self, key, value):
        self.passthru[key] = value
    def __delitem__(self, key):
        if key in self.passthru:
            del self.passthru[key]
        elif key in self.ipatch:
            self.ipatch.remove(key)

if not isinstance(config.label_overrides, LabelOverridesSwitch):
    config.label_overrides = LabelOverridesSwitch(config.label_overrides)

But I don't see why you need this LabelOverridesSwitch. You could just use the config.label_overrides as intended. This would be all the code you need in the first init block:

config.label_overrides['Fish1'] = 'Fish1_i'
config.label_overrides['Day9'] = 'Day9_i'
config.label_overrides['Acryroom'] = 'Acryroom_i'
config.label_overrides['VisitM26'] = 'VisitM26_i'
config.label_overrides['cel34V'] = 'VisitM26_i'

You cannot use URM do add scenes, if that's what you're asking.

Hi, is it possible to add a “choose both” button when players need make dicisions.
Like when choose to visit which girl, we can “choose both” to get all the points and flags.
Its a basic feature for many mods.
Of course I know there is chance to broken the game, maybe you can have it disabled by default or add some notice.

No, that involves rewriting the jump and label code in ways specific to each individual game.

Hey there, was using the mod with Heads will Roll - Downfall.
Stuff was working all fine, until I decided to click on Snapshots in the URM which gave me errors.
And now I can't access URM with Alt-M as it will try to access the Snapshot tab directly which will give errors again.
Is there a way to open URM at another page?

Hi there, I was playing Misfits part 1 on android without any mods (because there aren't any) and whenever I click on search bar I get this error and It's the first time I got an error while using URM.

I'm unable to find "Heads will roll - Downfall" on this site, but it seems like they have assigned something to the

"list".
You could delete the persistent file (or rename it to not lose it) in both the game/saves folder and in the Appdata and start the game again. URM will revert back to the "Search" tab.

But... them using "list" will break other things like sorting and textbox customization. And possibly internal Ren'Py things.

Sorry, I can't explain this issue and it would be a lot of work to investigate.

Thanks, will give it a try.
You probably can't find it since

1. I had a brainfart and wrote Heads will fall instead of Heads will roll.
2. There isn't much sex in it
3. It's free on Steam

Oh okay no worries, thanks for replying.

Has anyone found a useful variable that can be manipulated in every renpy game? I have been curiously searching for something that exists in every renpy game that can changed to be of good use and ik some game devs have put dev panels in theirs I can't recall specific game examples but there was one where I found a variable name something along the line of "dev_tool" or "dev_menu" I know URM as is can easily replace and beat any "dev" menu but I'm just curious to see what possibly developers actually put in their dev menus. And than another where I had to type in a code to progress in game and I was trying to find the code through URM I mean is there such a way? To instead of looking for variables to manipulate or labels to play you find the answer or code that would let you progress?

Not sure if this is the proper forum for enhancement requests for this excellent mod so please excuse if it's not.
I would like to have an option to control the width of the textbox. Here's an example:


The original textbox is fine except for the annoying background gradient. (The purple color behind the text.)



The modified textbox is what I'm looking for but the text is too wide now to read easily and the text runs into the QUICK MENU on the right. I would like to be able to shorten the right left and right margins of the text so it would appear in three or four lines instead of two as it is now.
