Writing Scenarios in RenPy by JcJace45 and Cobaltcore

 

Oh boy, our time to check the v3 era has just begun! 

I have checked and all scenarios in the list from here on were released after v3, which means that v2 is all covered! Aren't you excited? A new standard of quality in writing, after all the mistakes that writers committed with v2 stuff, v3 scenarios will be shown a new level of collaborations and fan content made for the game.... right? 

After Kmalloc, the original founder of the game left, JcJace45 took over as the leader of the project and cobaltcore started working in the technical aspects of the game, including the new v3 engine.

As said before, v2 scenarios were presented as a single rpy file thing, without the possibility of adding custom assets, which made some people try and add their own putting them inside the own game folder, which was according to cobalt a terrible idea. The idea of shipping certain scenarios within the game came out because it would feel weird to have the scenario mode at first totally empty, and since then it has become a tradition. If your scenario stands enough (and is not that heavy either) it might end up bundled in the next version of Student Transfer.

John starts saying that this time he will actually teach you how to actually make scenarios, which is a remark to the Scenario Example made by kmalloc and that lasted only 10 seconds long, it gives a simple explanation about expressions and animations, and after v3, it includes an introduction to the json data files and scenario folders and also refers the writers to check the official Scenario Guide that by that time it moved to its own website, which is an extension of the official Ren Py documentation explaining how to write on the engine, writing fiction in a visual novel format became easier than ever.

Writing Scenarios in RenPy is an incredible reading experience where the emotions of the reader are leveled up to their peak, it has everything, compelling characters, an amazing story, teaching for the audience, self-awareness, 4th wall breaks, a cameo from one of the characters of the other installment of the massive-TF-VNs-from-TFGS franchise, Press Switch to put everything in a single cinematic universe and even it ends up in an epic explosion a la Michael Bay.

Here is a little fun fact! 

This scenario will always be referred to the user every time John says "Of course!" in anything you write or read if scenario hooks are enabled.
