  • renpy executable to hololens with 3D-stage
    1 project | /r/RenPy | 12 Nov 2023
    I have a project where the goal is to run a renpy script on a HoloLens. The goal is to create an executable that is platform-independent, which checks which platform is currently being used and then adapts it, so to speak. The HoloLens1/2 runs via Unity, the renpy script is written normally via vsc and tested in the renpy launcher and the 3D stage is used with the 3 axis. There is this repository: https://github.com/renpy/renpy-build which should be really interesting.
