Re: [pygame] OpenGL stretch of a pygame.Surface

Ok I now create my texture once.

I'm having some issues with this

As I understand it, you suggest a surface with a surfarray.pixel2d bound
to it. But I can't blit on such surface beacause it's locked. Did you
mean drawing directly in surfarray or just create and update a
surfarray.2darray which involve to do a copy of the native screen also ?


Thanks for all your advises everyone.

[pygame] Missing Module and Font

[diliup gabadamudalige]

Dear Peter or anyone else who can help me,

I downloaded

   - pygame-1.9.2a0.win32-py2.7.msi
    6.4MB

from the Pygmaesite and everything runs smoothly. I can comile using py2exe
without any error. BUT I CANNOT import pygame.freetype. Gives me the
following error.
ImportError: No module named freetype

Now when I download Pygame from the link below
https://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame/downloads

I can do import pygame.freetype but whn I compile the program using py2exe
I get an error
import pygame._view error. module not found.

Please help as this is causing a LOT of preoblems and I am stuck between
the view module and the freefont. Kind of uncomfortable here so please help
me.

Thank you very much in advance.
