I get that export doesnt include the graph stuff used in the program itself but its really not saving you much to not have the graph included in your json. Hey Radmatt! I want to see if this is right for me, but the JSON example link you have isn't working. I just get a blank page.
You can download example dialogue files from the bottom of the page and open them in f. I also recommend Json Formatter Pro from windows store. It is very intuitive to build dialogue, and I plan to use it in really big projects, but have a lot to things to improve:.
Hello radmatt, I've been using DD for renpy for a while now and I've been enjoying it so far, but in the last update the execute nodes of the program don't accept line break pilcrow characters anymore to allow multiple lines of code, which bars me from adding code that cannot be executed in separate nodes.
Personally, I require being able to write various lines of code in the execute nodes, or else my whole project can't work as intended.
Considering that, I wanted to ask if you could restore the functionality of using line break characters, or if the execute node can be expanded, like the dialogue nodes, so that you can add various lines of code in each node: That would be an incredibly useful addition.
Thank you. New version is up 3. You can now resize the execute node and pressing enter makes a new line. Absolutely amazing. Thank you very much, this will help me tons with my project! I have a question, do we really have to create every locales each time we create a file? Let say I have 10 locales, currently, each time I create a new discussion, I have to re-create those 10 locales, which make it unusable for me unfortunately. That would be nice to have real "project" settings that are available in all new files we create, otherwise I don't see how it could scale to big projects.
And don't worry if you delete a locale and the texts in message nodes get deleted. You can just add the same locale ID and the text will appear back up. I've been using Dialogue Designer for a while now and mostly it's really good. However, I think there really needs to be a field on the nodes to reference audio files.
I'm at a point now in my game where I want to add recorded speech over the text, and being able to reference an audio file directly from the node would be a godsend. All it would need to be is an extra field. Matt, please add this. I'm willing to discuss the option of paying for you to take some time to do this if necessary. You can message me over on Twitter under the handle herrwebster if you want to discuss it further I don't think we can send messages through Itch.
You should be able to already achieve that using variables. Create a variable named something like "audioFile". Then just set that variable to the name of the audio file you want to play prior to the character's dialogue.
I'm actually releasing a new version soon that will have your requested feature. Hopefully today. What's the basic usage of this tool? I bought it and I'm a little confused. Is each project for a single dialogue sequence? Or is a project suppose to contain all dialogue sequences for an entire game project? The idea was to make a tool to create manageable, separate dialogue files for dialogue heavy games which require non-linear storytelling.
Those files are meant to be connected by an external software, like a game engine or a framework. Ok so If I'm understanding you correctly, if I'm making an RPG and I have 2 conversations, one between the player and a villager, then one between the player and the final boss, I would make 2 separate dialogue designer projects?
Yes, you would create two separate files. Think of them like they're image files that you edit separately of each other, and then put them together in the game engine. I like this program.
Keep up the good work! Wanted to ask if you can implement a better zooming option. I just started with my first dialog and after zooming out I realised that I may only see 2 or 3 dialogs at the same time which is nothing compared with the many dialogs which will be implemented.
To move fast to a specific point I would appreciate a much more zoomed out view. Yeah, the idea is that you'd have one file for each dialogue. It seems to me like the best way to organize conversations. I understand "character" but what are "custom path" and "interacted character" for?
They simply change the value of one of the variables in the final dialogue file. You can interpret them any way you want in your game engine or framework. After spending a bit of time with Dialogue Designer, I have to say that I'm very happy with the program. Matt, I'm not sure how active you are in updating Dialogue Designer, but I thought I'd provide some feedback:. Being able to easily duplicate nodes would be a huge quality of life improvement.
Choices: It would be really useful to be able to change the order of choices by dragging them. As most engines will use the order to loop and display to screen in order, being able to easily change the order would be a big help, as right now it requires deleting choices and rewriting, and relinking.
It's a major pain when you realise you need a new choice at the top of the list. Renaming characters. I can navigate through the dialog, but how do I edit things? You left click on dialog lines to navigate through them, or right click on them to "select" them. Once a line is selected, you can edit it in the window to the right, edit the link between it and the current dialog node on the bottom-left panel, or copy it to another node by navigating to that node and pressing "Paste Into Current Link ".
The navigation seems to work, but I can't see the actual dialog text Make sure you have the correct "dialog. If this doesn't solve the problem, please let me know so I can look into it. Cool app.
Ugly, though Will fix this asap. Thanks to Thor for helping me test it out. Download Microsoft Edge More info.
