Ren'py Tutorial - "Options" (With Chapters)
16This video is all about the "Options" file for your game. We go though each area, some parts I spend more time on than others. Within a couple of hours of the premiere I will have the chapters up so you guys who just want something specific, remember to check back to find the area you want to learn more about. (Though I suggest everyone watch the first part as there is a couple of things that dont really go anywhere that are mentioned in the first part. After that it will be all stuff you can expect.)
I mention at the one spot in the video about the transitions. If you want to learn more about them and try out some other fun ones you can check out the official website about it. I may make a better video about it in the future but I do go though and show some of them in this video to get you started.

As mentioned in the video near the end, I am going to step back from the Ren'py videos now until July. (I still want to do the GUI one for you guys but I want to do it good so need more than "the night before" kind of recording set up. Over June I will try to get that recorded and ready for you guys so in July it can be one of the first "Wednesday" videos I get out there.) My plan is to get an art video for you guys next week. Speed paint or draw and talk or whatever. I have not figured it out quite yet. It will also depend on my free time as well.
You can use the chapters below to help you find what you are looking for. All chapters are labelled the same as they currently show up in the "Options File" for your renpy game. So if there is an area you want to know more about, use these to help get you to where that is talked about.
