Hi! I'm using pygame for the first time. I've developped a game, everything works fine but one thing I can't explain. Using Windows, python 2.6, here's what I was doing:
18 class Shape(pygame.sprite.Sprite): 20 def __init__(self,width,height): 21 pygame.sprite.Sprite.__init__(self) 23 self.width = width 24 self.height = height 27 self.rect = pygame.Rect(0, 0, 6*5*20, 6*5*20) 28 self.image = pygame.Surface( (self.rect.width, self.rect.height) ) 29 self.image.fill((255, 255, 255)) 30 self.image.convert() the line #30 was *always* generating access violation. I just added modified to: 30 self.image = self.image.convert() and now everything works fine. But there shouldn''t have any problem at all with this simple line: 30 self.image.convert() even though it does nothing (well i guess it does nothing). I'm not the kind of people who thinks "it works let's go on". I want to understand why it didn't work before going further. Can someone please explain me why this raised an Access Violation?
