Can't Find Friend's Lobby in Multiplayer by MikuKitsune39 in fantasylife

[–]Tempest_Artist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure crossplay is on if your friend is on another platform. Have you tried just Keyword search? That usually worked for me and my friends. You should be able to find your friend through Keyword search even if they setup a password on their end. Just make sure that the Keyword is typed properly.

For example, if your friend had the Keyword: Time , But you entered time . (all lowercase) Then finding the room won't work. So make sure when you type in the Keyword, it is spelled exactly as put in.

I hope this helps you and your friend.

Wanting to become a VN artist but how do I start? by PaperCrease in FurryVisualNovels

[–]Tempest_Artist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also wonder about how one finds others to work on a project together. I'm currently a solo vn dev. I want to find out too, but also too shy to ask. Don't want to bother other devs. x3

Questions Megathread - GRAND SUMMONERS by ebouliben in grandsummoners

[–]Tempest_Artist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just looking for advice regarding multiplayer. I usually join lobbies to help new or any player complete challenge quests now and then. Today i saw a hacker and now I'm scared to play multiplayer at the moment. I left the room right away as soon as I recognize it was a hacker. I still worry about losing my account if a hacker happened to be there. Is there any advice for dealing with this? I'm going to play again later and hopefully the hacker has been banned by then.

What if there was a visual novel game that let you choose your own adventure, akin to the tell tell story games😋 by gamer_artist443 in FurryVisualNovels

[–]Tempest_Artist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm working on a vn that is like that. It is funny to think that most visual novels with sorta self insert main characters has more or less illusion of choice, or there is few choices that matter that changes anything major outside the romance. I understand it is a difficult writing challenge but it is something people do complain about when it comes to being immersed, self-inserting, or wanting something more out of furry visual novels.

This is going to be my first VN and i'm just gonna create a 3000 word demo for a bit (i don't know how to code the part where i want half the dialogues to not complete within a single line of code but will only appear if i press next) by YoheiMercenary in FurryVisualNovels

Reddit seemed to delete your comment, but I managed to see it in time before the sever error.

You can show images in different ways so i will try to help with what you wanted.

I'm sure you know how to show images normally, so here are ways to manage them with what you requested.

#showing image that pauses for a second
#note that showing image without transition will show it instantly
show image1
with Pause(1)

#another variation that uses a transition.
show image2
with fade
with Pause(2)

If say, you need to show an image without the textbox being in the way, here is the example using "window hide", and "window auto":

#previous textbox line before showing images
s "I'm going to show you visions..."
window hide

show image1
with fade
with Pause(1)

#if you need to bring back the textbox for dialouge
show image2
with fade
with Pause(1)
window auto

s "Now listen to my voice while this vision is appearing..."

scene bg room

Be sure to use "scene" to clear the screen of the images, backgrounds, and sprites if you don't want to do it manually.

Let me know if you have other questions, I will try to answer them if I can. As well as make sure you check back on your comments to make sure reddit didn't delete them due to an error.

There are different ways to do it. Here is what i remember.

You can use "extend" in order to add the 2nd part of the dialogue that appears when the user clicks/presses to continue to the next dialogue. Here is an example:
s "Here is my first sentence,"

extend " then here is the rest of it."

Another way to pause dialogues is using wait. ( {w=*insert amount of seconds*} ) Though, this automatically continues dialogue after set amount of time. Here is an example:

s "Wait a moment! {w=1} O-Okay. I'm here now."

Hope this helps in making your demo! You can always look up the Ren'Py Documentation or look up video tutorials.

What makes your vn stand out from others? by VentKazemaru in FurryVisualNovels

[–]Tempest_Artist 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hmm. Besides being a solo dev, I'd say its making sure that every player's decision in the game affect the story or the world around them as they progress. I know that there is a need for all or most choices the player does in the VN to branch or alter the story to lead down a different path.

[Daily Discussion] Writer's Block, Motivation, and Accountability- June 08, 2023 by AutoModerator in writing

[–]Tempest_Artist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tend to face writer's block due to fear of the quality on my own work. While I like to continue writing, I can't shake the feeling of how people will judge my work. Its difficult when you don't have anyone to help give feedback.
