This was all extremely confusing to me. I would expect a project that is aimed at people who dont want to code, to be simpler than this.

You need to say it clearly that the scripts should only be added if you want to create an android version. Terms like this make it confusing: Grab all four scripts, or just pick any one you like or Download the .zip and .rpy files available on the itch.io page. You should state that this is only for android.

Then, you tell people to unpack the zip file in the game directory. I did exactly that, the images do not show up when I launch the project.

I then replace the original renpy gui file with your gui file. The game breaks and doesn't even work.

I overwrite the image files with your gui files, it still doesn't work.

I have tried MULTIPLE things and IT DOES NOT WORK.

This has all been a very frustrating experience. I might as well spend time doing it the regular way instead of wasting days trying to make this work. The instructions seem to be outdated and not tested by others.

Thanks for giving it a try, but I’m afraid I cannot help troubleshoot your problem if you don’t tell me the exact steps you did as I asked earlier.

With all due respect, this is the first and only time someone has encountered a total crash like that. The scripts are all tested and work, even for a freshly created projects.

I understand you are frustrated, but saying this is not tested is very out of pocket. There are already some projects that successfully use this script.

The files are self-explanatory: GUI assets for the template GUI, GUI scripts for each elements, and mobile for Android. I’m not sure what you mean by “this is for Android only” when it is not the case.

And to use them without any customisation, you just have to extract and replace. But for some reason like I said, your project seems to be missing a file.

Did you put the files in the game folder? Have you completely read the devlogs?
