Changing namebox background color

Changing the color for a character with a name is a little different from usual. In the script.rpy file, locate the following line:

define e = Character("EILEEN", namebox_background=AlphaMask(Solid("#FF7F7F"), "gui/namebox.png"))

Copy paste this line and change the properties to match every character.

namebox_background must follow this format: AlphaMask(Solid("YOUR HEX CODE"), "gui/namebox.png")). You should replace YOUR HEX CODE with the background color of choice. Everything else must not me modified.

If you want to use the default background color, you can omit the namebox_background property entirely. All usual RenPy character parameters can also be applied, if you want to override anything yourself.

Side Image

To enable side images, open kit_options.rpy and locate the following line:

define gui.use_side_image = False

Replace False with True. In order to create side images for your characters, you can use the template located in gui/empty_side.png
