How is image Renpy defined?
An image is something that can be show to the screen using the show statement. An image consists of a name and a displayable. When the image is shown on a layer, the displayable associated with it is displayed on that layer. An image name consists of one or more names, separated by spaces.
What size should Renpy sprites be?
The sprite image itself should be 600 pixels tall. The width doesn’t matter. The character themself should be centered in the width, whatever it is, and should be as high as you want them to be in game. So, a really short character may be 300 pixels tall and have 300 pixels of empty space above them.
What size should Renpy backgrounds be?
800×600 is the default choice for Ren’Py, but 640×480 is also popular. You’ll then want to use an image manipulation program (such as the GIMP or Photoshop) to resize background images to that size. You probably don’t want to ship any image larger than the screen resolution, except for special effects like pans.
How do I view an RPA?

What do you call a side image in Ren’py?
Side Images link. Many visual novels include a picture of the character that is speaking as part of their interface. Ren’Py calls this image a side image, and has support for automatically selecting and displaying a side image as part of the dialogue.
What does config.side image same transform do?
The config.side_image_same_transform and config.side_image_change_transform transforms are called with two arguments – old and new side image displayables – each time the side image is displayed. These can be used to move around side images, or use a transition to go between side images.
Are there any problems with Ren’py as a program?
(And yeah – one of Ren’Py’s big problems in my experience has been lack of full documentation; as a programmer, though, I can kind of understand that writing docs is the least interesting part of the process. 😉
How to determine the side image of a tag?
To determine the side image associated with a tag, Ren’Py tries to find an image with the tag “side”, and the largest number of attributes from the pool. If no image can be found, or more than one image has the same number of attributes, a Null is shown instead.
