Yeah, macs and windows machines use a different line ending character. Makes things a lot of fun! Most decent text editors besides notepad should be ale to display the files correctly though whichever system you are on.

To the text timing issue Ultrawave is having... This is both badly coded and documented, but I looked at the code, and when you use "delay" it puts the text mode into "wait manual" which is a slower mode. To bump back into normal mode you'll need a "{wait auto}{delay 2}".

Nice work with the new chapter of the tutorial Ropfa. This is some heavy stuff to explain, I'm impressed you tackled it at all haha. I'll let you know if I see anything that could be tweaked.

In Turnabout Most Awesomest, PyWright suddenly closes when I want to "check" a map in the court records 0_o.

That's addressed in one of the early parts of the tutorial. You need to fix some lines in the coding for the map before it's usable.

However, I did just change this so that you don't actually get the map until you need it, so that people won't accidentally open it up and crash the game before they realize that. The change will be in the next update.

I'm trying to change my character's emotion mid sentence and nothing happens when I add the coding in.

Spoiler: Current text
char Trucy hide
"{sound blipfemale.ogg}{f}Trucy's fine!{p30} ...{p30}{e gasp}{sfx/Key.ogg}{n}Kinda?"

Later in the text when Ali speaks her emotion changes but not when Trucy speaks.

I finished all of the tutorial cases (learned a lot too.)
It's really through.
My only question is if it's possible to do a gallery reaction shot or is it something that needs to be coded manually?

That would just be a background (or foreground if you decide to have it animated) and a sound effect. Nothing fancy.

Actually, there are few macros that control gallery and other people in courtroom, but I have yet to test if they work.

They were included in an archive file called "Resources".
I believe I found it on Pywright forum, however I cannot find the link at the moment.
The whole package includes various graphic and sound resources e.g. evidence, characters, buttons, sfx etc.

I reuploaded for now the ''macro'' part (I hope the original uploader won't mind):

After searching through my files, it appears that there is also a button with this name. I would assume it's similar to graphichigh, where it highlights the button when you click it. If anybody knows more than I do, feel free to confirm or deny this.

Yeah, I was refferring exactly to a button that goes by this name.
I've searched all macros and documentation and I couldn't find any command to activate it.

Hey, I'm having a problem with the PyWright gif2strip webpage. It keeps giving me the 502 error and something about "nginx/1.4.1" I've tried opening it up in other servers, but it gives me the same thing. Am I the only one having this problem, or is anyone else experiencing this? :eh?:

It's not working for me either. I'd recommend contacting Saluk, because I don't have any control over the actual Pywright engine or the website.

It's definitely something wrong with Saluk's server.
Downloading updates and games from the PyWright's menu screen doesn't work either.

You should be able to open *.mcro files in a mere Windows notepad or any other text editor.
(However, I personally prefer to edit them in Notepad ++)

I know and that's what I've been trying to do, but whenever I open it in text edit, it just says "Failed to open this file. Please try again." However, it does let me see the name.mcro, perceive.mcro and timer.mcro. Can I please get the coding?

What operating system are you running and exactly what application do you use to open *.mcro files with?
Maybe the files are corrupted? Try to re-download the whole tutorial.

Been messing around with this for the first time this evening, and this Tutorial seemed a great place to start, but I think I got ahead of myself and...

Okay I was really hoping to work this out myself (call myself a computer programmer? Perhaps my mind is just derping tonight :oops: But I'm running out of ideas as to why I'm getting this error, despite Gumshoe's sprite displaying properly (Note: Yes this is a mac screenshot but I'm running the Windows version of PyWright via Crossover. That shouldn't be an issue though as I've been playing Super Effective Turnabout without any problems)...

Spoiler: errorscreenshot
Image


Spoiler: code
bg naruhodotalent

char apollo hide
“You are seriously accusing her of murdering her own father?”

char gumshoe e=normal
“Sorry pal, but the evidence is overwhelming.”

script scene2


I've the same issue in my second scene but this is the simpler one so I've been trying work out what is causing it from this one.



EDIT: nevermind, fixed it. TextEdit was adding something odd at the end of speech segments. Using text wrangler and saving it with Windows line breaks has fixed it. :trucy:

Might it be possible to have art fade out? We can fade them in, but how do we fade them out? Not to black, just out.
I'm sure there is a way, but can you say how if there is?

Also I'm going through Turnabout Most Awesomest, and I'm stuck at the second text editor for Scene 4.

Spoiler: scene4.script.txt editor 2
Code:
//TEXT EDITOR 2 BEGINS


label texteditor2

gui Input scene4text2 x=218 y=95 name=Nameyy width=20

//FOR GUI INPUT SCENE4TEXT2, PUT IN X COORDINATES, Y COORDINATES, A NAME=CODENAME, AND
// WIDTH= FOR THE TEXTBOX

gui Button next x=218 y=95 name=inbtn Enter

gui Wait

label next

//ISEMPTY LINE HERE
isempty scene4text2 none

delete name=Nameyy
// USE THE SAME CODENAME YOU USED FOR GUI INPUT SCENE4TEXT2

delete name=inbtn

is_ex scene4text2 == 'testytest' next2 fail=mistake
//PUT PASSWORD CONFIRMATION LINE HERE
//IS_EX SCENE4TEXT2 == 'yourpassword' NEXT2 FAIL=MISTAKE


//TEXT EDITOR 2 ENDS


My problem is that after Trucy's prompt to edit the coords, name, and width, the game skips over to Books's dialogue. Something wrong here?

Okay, so I haven't gone through the third tutorial in a really long time, but I'm fairly certain that with the recent(ish) update to Pywright, the instructions in the perceive section are now just plain wrong. I keep telling myself to update it, but just haven't gotten around to it. I'll have to make a note of it and get that done sometime soon.

I must be doing something wrong because I've been running into an issue with Pywright where it seems to pick and choose when it wants to allow a custom character on screen.

Spoiler: Exhibit A
Image


This is a screenshot of the emotion I got to play from this character in the Pywright engine. As the highlighted part of Notepad++ suggests...

Spoiler: Exhibit B
Image


This part of the emote, when the character actually syncs its lips with the text appearing on screen, won't play at all.

Spoiler: Exhibit C
Image


Not only that, but the emotes of this character don't even register on screen. No nametag or anything.

Spoiler: Exhibit D
Image


Both characters are in the port folder with the same names as the names used in the code. I'm not sure what's going on here: if I'm doing something wrong, or if Pywright is just being inconsistent.

It also could be a problem with the sprite. If someone has an answer, PM me or let me know in the thread.

Do all emotions display wrong or only those you have highlighted on screenshots?

It may be a stupid question, but... have you tried to reverse the naming order of your files? I mean, instead of "(talk)normal" try to change it to "normal(talk)" etc. Don't forget to restart PyWright after this operation.
I've just run a quick test and none of characters named your way did work for me.

Could you also post the code for the "acesmile" *txt file?

You're right! Moving the (blink) and (talk) to the end worked.

That's going to be annoying to change around for all the characters, but I'm glad it was just a minor error on my part. Thanks for the help, my main squeeze.

Hey sorry to bother, i'm kind of new to PYWright, i've been learning the engine and some questions popped up and i hope you, or someone, can answer them:


1. Is it possible to use commands in the middle of text? Like if i wanted to use the showevl command to show an evidence mid-text without it stopping, or use Franziska's whip animation as an fg multiple times during the text, can it be done? If yes, how?

2. Can i make music fade out during text too? It seems like it can only be done after or before the text stops

I might have more questions but those are the most prominent ones at the moment, thanks in advance!

To question 1: Yes, you can use commands in the middle of the text, {f}, {s} {e(emotionname)} {p} and so on. it also works with the showevl command by using {showevl (name of evidence)}.

2. You can't make the music fade out in the middle of the text. (at least, from all the things i've tried, no one did work)

Hope this helped. :eh?:

Hi everyone, I'm facing a bug that I'm unable to fix, so I'd like to ask for a helping hand or two.

Code:
label label23
li option1
li option2
showlist

label option1
# some huge chat here
goto label23

label option2
# insert chat here
goto label23


This is a scene.talk script, with naturally the proper menu and the talk / examine / move / present menu and stuff.

Now the issue is, whenever I enter the talk menu and I click on back, the code inside label option1 runs by itself. Why is this?

EDIT: another quick question, how to replace the default pywright typewriter sound with the "real" typewriter one?

You need to create a file named "case_screen.txt" in your case folder and write a patch to your case art in it.

Hi! I'm working on a fangame using Spirit of Justice graphic assets. I have all the sprites I need- albeit shamelessly taken from an Attorney Online graphic pack- but they are all in gif form. Ahlbi is the first character I want to appear, however, some of his sprites run as long as 210 frames. That's a little inconvinient for making the sprite sheets I need, so I thought I might as well try out that program that automatically makes the sheets from gifs- that CGI file from the official website. The problem is, I can't for the life of me figure out how to get it to work without downloading some kind of personal web server. Is that the only way, or am I missing something?

When I try to start my trial to test it, it goes back to the case menu when I click on the case.
I mean that I click on the "new game" button and it disappeares there is loading in screen and then it goes back to the case menu.
Do you know how to fix this?

Sorry to bump this, and I know it's outside the scope of this tutorial, but is there any way to change the bottom screen's background, or change anything about the bottom screen UI? When I try to make a little intro before the case menu, as soon as I add a text box, it causes the bottom screen to glitch out, showing the dialogue advance button underneath the case selection menu. Is there some way to fix that, like clearing the bottom screen somehow?

There is a way. To change the bottom screen's background during ordinary text, you'll need to change it in your intro.txt:
Code:
"set _bigbutton_bg IMAGE"

(change "IMAGE" to the name of your picture.)

for the bottom screen UI, for investigation menus (that show the talk, present, examine, move buttons), you can just do:
Code:
bg IMAGE y=192 stack

in your menu script just after you set your background for the top screen.

This might also need to be done for lists, but you can set a permanent background for lists in your intro.txt with:
Code:
set _list_bg_image IMAGE


If you're still confused, my best advice is look at someone else's code to see how they did it, and learn from that.
