What's New in RenPyLinter

2.0.0

May 20, 2026

Major updates since 2.0: Brand-new cloud translation - Streaming translation (NDJSON) — text appears as it's translated. - Smart prefetch with dialogue context for much higher cache-hit rates. - Live request-progress HUD above subtitles. Asset Library - Browse images, audio, video, and scripts by category. - Inline media preview with video thumbnails; ogg / webm / rar / bz2 supported. - File-browser layout with recursive folder counts. Save Editor - Built-in save editor with safe variable-length field editing. - iCloud backup overview: cross-story management, batch backup, recovery of unlinked backups — now free for everyone. In-game experience overhauled - New fan menu with a floating gear button that shrinks and snaps to the edge when idle. - Draggable, resizable, lockable subtitle overlay. - Control bar with fast-forward, skip and subtitle toggle, plus two-way commands. - Launch games multiple times without quitting; faster cold start. - Smoother text input via a dedicated keyboard controller. Library & UI - Story library split into "Recent" and "All games", grouped alphabetically. - Skeleton placeholders on launch — no more flicker. - ZIP import can be cancelled mid-way; added "Recent Imports" section. - iOS 26 Liquid Glass support, new app icon and launch screen. - Refined iPad sidebar and navigation. Runtime & stability - Added Ren'Py 8.5.3 runtime; fixed Live2D on 8.5.3 and later. - Numerous fixes for subtitles, orientation switches and legacy iOS versions. - Integrated Sentry crash reporting for faster issue resolution.

User reviews

It works

It runs good, and definitely one of the most advanced renpy runners I’ve ever tried, though at some I’ve been kicked out during a play through. Still a bit tacky but other than that is great

很好用

已经用了好几年了 最近发现有更新 最新更新看到可以翻译感觉很激动 进去发现还要充钱才能用现在优化了还得花钱才能享用优化内容 翻译花钱了还没有用 为什么啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊😭

没优化

没有优化后续,拿完钱就跑路

Response from developer

感谢您的支持与回复!1.8.0测试更新已经在群内提供了。

导入

为什么导入zip后进度一直是百分之0不动

希望能够继续更新,兼容更高版本

真的很好用,非常方便,拿着平板直接躺床上看视觉小说。只要是版本对得上很少会发生闪退之类的问题。上次更新已经是十个月前了,不知道作者还看不看得到评论
