Version 2.6 Release!

Ren'Py All-In-One GUI Template
A browser GUI made in HTML5

You read that right everyone: Version 2.6 of the GUI Template is finally here! It's been a long time coming so we apologize for the wait, but we did manage to test it with both Ren'Py 7.5.1 and 8.0.1 and can confirm that it works as intended.

Changelog:

  • Eileen sprite was updated to a newer version of Mannequin
  • History Screen was updated to the latest version of the Separated History Code, which now has true variable message heights!
  • New code comments to better explain some functions, some TODO reminders in areas you should customize before release
  • Optimized code in various places
  • All new scrolling credits code, courtesy of bobcgames
  • Added a line for custom cursor images
  • Added a line to ensure that hyperlink text in the interface matches the rest of the interface typeface
  • Fixed issues between Typeface, Font Size, and Line Spacing occasionally having either all or no options selected on the Preferences screen
  • New custom screenshake effect implemented, with ability to switch back to the default hpunch
  • Minor adjustments to the demo script
  • The option to change the ADV and NVL textbox image was removed

Regarding the last point: Many developers we spoke to did not utilize the feature, and we could not find an efficient way to tie the textbox and text color together. Tying too many actions to a single button has caused issues in the past, and we'd like to ensure that the template is easy for most developers to use. Thank you for your understanding!

Please be sure to download the new template to use in your future projects. If you encounter any errors we may have missed, please leave a comment on the page and we'll do our best to fix them in a more timely manner this time (we'll try to, at least!).

Thank you for your time, and may your development endeavors succeed!
