LVNAuth Tutorials - Requirements

LVNAuth Requirements

This is what you'll need to start creating a visual novel with LVNAuth:

At the very minimum, you'll need a font sprite sheet. Font sprite sheets are how text is displayed in visual novels created with LVNAuth. Traditional font files are not used with LVNAuth.

There is a tutorial specifically on font sprite sheets.

This is what makes a visual novel in LVNAuth:

1. Font sprite sheet (required)
2. Sprites/images for characters, backgrounds, objects, etc.
3. Music/Audio (optional)
4. Character dialog text
5. A story

After your visual novel is finished, you can compile it to a .lvna file, which is 1 file consisting of all the elements of your visual novel - font sprite sheets, images, audio, music, dialog text - all combined into 1 file.

The viewers of your visual novel will need your visual novel's .lvna file along with LVNAuth to play the file.
