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

I have to check if I can reproduce this. Could it be that both games are running Ren'Py 7.4.11.x?

Yes, seems like it. The other game was

. The "About" section in the Main Menu suggests that is exactly the same version - "Ren'Py 7.4.11.2266". But I know I have used the mod with other games using this version multiple times with no issues. Isn't that like just the newest one?

I just tested Healslut with URM and didn't encounter any issues.
Is there something specific that you do that causes the error?

Both times it seemingly happened out of nowhere - I didn't save for quite some time and then when I tried it suddenly didn't work even though it did before. I know I used the saving feature of the mod for Healslut, because the game does not have a named saves feature. That's the only thing I did apart from changing a single value (gold) once at the very start of the game, but I doubt that would cause this error.

Unfortunately I don't remember if I used the mods saving feature with the first game as well.

You're talking about the "code" button? This doesn't look only directly after the choice, but it tries to look ahead as far as possible. (normally this would mean it looks for code blocks until some other choice, a path or a jump is encountered)

Yes, I'm referring to the code button. I'm mentioning a variable change tracker mostly because the code button doesn't seem to show the changes. On some games it doesn't show any changes, probably because they're packaged differently than it's trying to read. It seems pretty hit or miss.

I agree that a persistent, always-on variable changer can definitely be a little much. For major/known variables the watch panel is fine. But there's always games which flip a new boolean from false to true (to indicate a story bead, for instance) thirteen slides into a branching choice, and it would be nice to be able to keep track of those when they happen.

Chiming in to say this issue occurs for me as well with Fresh Women 0.4 which is running renpy 7.4.11.2266

I broke something in the game, it used to work

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

After reading about the error of the python module, I thought - I don’t have it at all and installed the latest version. Default path. However, this did not change the matter. Still looking for: File "c:\Python27\lib\ssl.py"

Look like RenPy for some reason tries loading Python from C:\Python27 instead of the included version.
But I already have a fix ready for this, it will be in the next release.

Do you have a way to reproduce the issue? Some steps after which it occurs?
That would be extremely helpful

Hi. Great tool and I'm trying to get to grips with it. In Banking on Bella I changed Landlady to Auntie but in the dialog it's showing <Auntie unbound>.

Original Replacement
anita_title Auntie

What am I doing wrong? Thanks

See:

Their custom menu could have an hidden item "opt_4", which might not actually be defined.
If will prevent this from causing a crash in the next version of URM, it will show up as an hidden choice with the name "[opt_4]".

(fun fact, this crash wouldn't happen if they weren't using Ren'Py 7.4)

I think it would make more sense to just change the variable:


Or you can do the replacement like this:

So I encountered this error with two different games now. Both times i just could not save anymore, it threw this error every time. Doesn't matter if I try to save trough the mod or normally, I can keep playing but never save. Also all Autosave dissapear unfortunately, they are just gone after closing the game.

When you get this error, load a save from before the error and play to the same point, do you get the error again?
If so, could one of you share such a save?

 

[Pantsuhunter]

Installing URM is the first thing that I'm doing with the new game I'm just unpacked.
You are The Best! Thx.

Small Req: Would be great to be able to adjust side panel's background opacity, or at least make it fully transparent (i.e. turn off blue background leaving only text labels & buttons).

I deleted everything unfortunately, because I needed space. But I know that I could load the last manual save I made (after closing the game ; I don't think I ever tried loading it before restarting if that makes any difference) which was from the same playthrough and did everything exactly the same and had no issues saving at that same point in the game or after that.
Like I said it just happened out of nowhere - always after playing without saving for quite a while. Although that could of course just be a coincidence.

I will think about adding something like this. There's "watchpanel optimizations" on my todo list

error in Gumdrop Games

It says "Incompatible Ren'Py engine version". Meaning the game is using an unsupported/old Ren'Py engine

URM 1.9 is out!
The new feature here is the possibility to define global settings. The global settings are shared between games. So if you've never configured a setting for a specific game it will use the globally specified one.

Other changes:

• Restyled tabs
• Fix: Prevent crash when ssl module is not found
• Fix: Prevent crash if text substitution fails for detected choices

 

[DrSpecial]

can we use it to play multiple paths in one walkthrough and get all the points and scenes? like some modders do provide this feature for a particular games.

Not for all games. IMO, (or as per my experience) if there are paths then you can get all of them by just changing the paths to true, but in many games like in defending lydia collier, you have to opt for one of the routes. P.S: I am far from a coder so I may be wrong, I just shared the experience I gathered from playing with this mod. 0x52 will be the best person to know the answer to this

yes, we can do that but we still can miss some dialogue IMO so if we can just choose both options when we need to then it will time saving.
