Re: [pygame] music module bindings for python
René Dudfield wrote: pygame has mod support through sdl_mixer. That's true. Note that you need to use pygame.mixer.music rather than a pygame.mixer.Sound object, though. I just tried the following on MacOSX and it worked: from time import sleep from pygame import mixer mixer.init() music = mixer.music music.load(bigjapan.mod) music.play() sleep(1) (The mod file I used is from http://www.df.lth.se/~fernbom/music/mods/files/bigjapan.zip). -- Greg

Re: [pygame] pygame.time.get_ticks() vs. time.clock()
On 5/24/07, Mike Wyatt [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm working on a synchronized RTS using pygame and Python's socket library, and I've discovered that the values returned by pygame.time.get_ticks() and the time module's clock() method are not consistent. My test results suggest that pygame.time.get_ticks() runs slightly faster than time.clock(). time.clock() is not a good way to measure wall clock time portably. On some systems (unix) it returns cpu time used instead of wall clock time, and on windows it uses the cpu performance counters as source, but does seem to return wall clock time. Use time.time() for getting the time portably, or use get_ticks(). The important thing is that you should use the same source everywhere. Regards, Ulf

Re: [pygame] Need feed back on new game!
Hi, This might be an surfarray issue as well. In the next release (4-5 hours away) I have removed the surfarray dependency and includes prerendered subpixel-images instead of generating them runtime.

Hi Ethan, Thanks for your excellent suggestions! I'll add them to the next release.

Well, at least that's what it looks like is happening... I'm not an expert at reading strace logs, but those are the last 2 lines above the SIGSEGV. I built my system without Timidity support, so maybe that's what's going on?

RE: [pygame] Need help testing Slingshot rc2
Nice work. Ran well with Xubuntu anyway. I had to change sound in the config file because stock settings didn't sound right, but after that sound was decent. On one level one of the moons did not seem to have any gravity effect just straight shots worked. Don't know if that was intentional or not, didn't make playing any less fun regardless. great job.
