Mod Ren'Py Universal Ren'Py Mod / URM [2.5] (mod any Ren'Py game yourself)

[theMickey_]

Could I please get help with Twinewood v2.0? I want to search for the patreon code but the one that comes out when searching vip is a dummy the dev prepared.

You don't really need URM for that -- just look at the code. And the code looks like this:

​

And as "remissupercute42069" is just another variable, we'll now have to search for it as well:

​

There you go, there's your Patreon code.

You obviously could have used URM as well and just set those variables to true (see the first screenshot):

• vip
• twobsfineass
• persistent.altmenu (just search for altmenu)

Done. Enjoy!

The choices/path detected notification never appears on any game. I'm using Android and Linux Mint... I think right now this mod is Windows only.

I've just installed Linux Mint in a VM and tested the latest version of URM 2.0.3 with a random game and it worked perfectly fine:

​

Make sure you have Notifications enabled (which is the default though)!

​

I'm not going to test Android, but I'm pretty sure it's working on Android as well (if done right).

Thank you for finding it for me, I'm not too good at these things but I'll try to squeeze my head a bit more on later releases.

You are right, trying the latest version it does work on Linux (unlike the one from the beginning of January). My bad.
Still doesn't work on Android but is OK, I'll use the old version.

Have you checked the instruction 0x52 added to the OP recently?

​

And are you using Joiplay or an APK version of the game?
Because it should work flawless with Joiplay according to Belzeebub -- see here.

And AFAIK for some games there are (modded) APK versions out there which sometimes already include URM, so it should work as well (if the Android port supports it I guess).

Good evening!
I recently tried a little game called "God among Kings" and got the following error.

The error occurs not when launching the game, but when opening urm in-game, to search for a variable or other use.
I hope this helps.

Are you on the latest version of URM? It works fine over here:

yes I have the last one, I haven't seen it higher up on your site

the error pops up directly when I click on the search box

Sorry, English is not my main language, so I can only translate it through Google!

Take SlutCraft-0-38-pc as an example:

In 1.115_2x52_URM, you can use "change font" DejaVuSans.ttf to display text content in other languages...

But since 2.01_0x52_URM, this method can no longer be used to display text content in other languages...

How can I complete this requirement in version 2.01 or above?

I think it's because URM now has some integrated fonts it comes with, and which URM uses instead of the default DejaVuSans.ttf, and which are not easy to replace (to be honest: I've never looked at the content of the URM archive in any previous version, so I'm not sure if that's any different now). So that's probably a feature 0x52 should add in a future version.

My suggestion to 0x52 would be to add a font selector in the Options --> Appearance part of URM...?! That way this could even be a global setting, so once you've changed your font in the global part of Appearance, you'll never have to do this again.

I've tried again, I've downloaded the game and the mod again, I've downloaded another version of the mod, and I still have the same problem :/.

 

[cpt-jack]

Thanks for the awesome work you put into this mod. I very much like using it and it makes everything so much easier.
I have a maybe bug report, it seems that the mod does not manage to recognise windows touch devices, at least it doesn't work with my Thinkpad x12. But that could also be because it's not a pur touch device, so I had to add the touch button by hand.
Also I have two feature requests that kind of work to the same end.
I'd like to have an option to only make the textbox transparent without touching the rest and/or to option to add a touch button similar to the one for the mod.

The version 1-15-2-stable-1178 is working fine

 

[theMickey_]

I've tried again, I've downloaded the game and the mod again, I've downloaded another version of the mod, and I still have the same problem :/.

You'll need to provide more information then, because it's working without any issues for me as well: I can search (and change) stuff, I can add a custom textbox and replacing names also works without any issues:



Please fill out the following:

Reporting an issue
When reporting an issue with URM, please include the information below:

• Are you using the latest version of URM?
• Which game has the issue (preferable a link to the game's thread)
• If it's a crash (grey screen) attach the "traceback.txt" file
• What did you do that caused the issue?
• Attach a screenshot of the issue (if possible)
• When URM gave an error (not a grey crash screen), check the log.txt file for lines starting with "0x52:"
• What OS are you on?
• Do you have any other mods installed? Does the issue still exist without the other mod(s)?

As does version 2.0.3 for me: I not getting any errors, and I can search and change variables, add textboxes, rename characters and all that fancy stuff. (I've tested both the "normal" version of the game as well as the "Halloween LiA".)

To be fair though, I got a few of errors, but those are not URM related, those where just bugs in the game itself (or it was because I changed some variables I shouldn't have touched ). Anyways, this game works perfectly fine with the latest version of URM, and if it doesn't for you, please fill out a proper bug report:

I will add the option to change the font in a future release

Yeah. I think Windows never really identifies as a real touch device.

I'd like to have an option to only make the textbox transparent without touching the rest and/or to option to add a touch button similar to the one for the mod.

Yeah mean hiding the textbox/dialogue?
On the roadmap is a feature for adding your own custom quick menu to any game. I could make it possible to add a "hide" button using that method.

 

[Cyrix72]

I actually love your mod and I am using it with almost each game I am playing, even if only to check what result a certain decision might trigger.
It is also a great fix for games the developers have not put much effort into the text box. There's however one feature I am currently missing and it is about indenting both text box and name box. It would be great to be able to move both a bit more to the right of screen, while text content remains being left-aligned.

I found out why you didn't have the bug, you have to advance a little in the tutorial, kill the first enemies for example

This has been requested a couple of times already. And will be improved in the future.

Could you share a save where the issue occurs for you?

I did some digging and the problem is that they broke their own game. At the start you can choose a play mode. They save this mode in a variable named "Play", which is a

that should not be used. URM just exposes their mistake.

There seems to be a way around it, because URM's theming engine exposes the issue. It looks like you have globally set a (non default) theme for URM. So if you clear the theme you've set from withing another game, Life in Alphaville should start fine.
But... this will not guarantee it won't still crash at some point. They still broke Ren'Py itself.
