Ren'Py 5.6.1 "Community Service"

Ren'Py 5.6.1 "Community Service" was released on September 13, 2006. The main distribution is:

• renpy-5.6.1.zip (3.9 MiB)

which includes the Ren'Py demo game, Ren'Py source code, and executable files that let you run on Windows 98+. This is all that you need to use Ren'Py on Windows.

For your convenience, we've made available the Ren'Py documentation included in the release:

• View the included reference manual. (Note that this is being superseded by the wiki reference manual.)
• View the script of the demo. (colored)
• View the full changelog.

The following files are required to run Ren'Py games, including the demo, on non-Windows platforms:

• Ren'Py Launcher for Macintosh 5.6.1 or later is required to run on Mac OS X.
• py4renpy 5.6.1 or later is required to run on Linux x86.
• renpy-deps 5.6.1 is required for other platforms.

Known Issues

Ren'Py crashes when displayables are clipped to an area for which both the x and y coordinates of the upper-left corner are 0 or less. To work around this, add the lines:

init:
    $ renpy.disable_fullscreen_opt = True

to your game. Be sure to remove this workaround when 5.6.2 is released.
