Thanks It's a while since I did it, but as far as I remember, compiling pygame itself just requires the standard python setup.py install However, before doing that, you should make sure you have libraries available for handling all the image formats you intend to use. I had to install libpng and libjpeg (they're easy to compile from source as well). You should probably also check that you have the relevant libraries for fonts and sound. Framework versions of these seem to work best on OSX. I didn't compile them myself, I just dropped in binary distributions of SDL_ttf.framework and SDL_mixer.framework (I found these somwehere on the pygame web site, if I remember correctly). When you compile pygame, it will given you a summary of which optional libraries it did and didn't find. If anything is missing, you can compile again after tracking down and installing them. -- Greg

It looks to me as though your PyGame installation doesn't have
support for PNG files. It seems to fall back to assuming BMP
if it can't find a handler for the file it's given.
How did you install PyGame? If you're compiling it from source,
the build process should tell you which optional libraries it
found. If PNG support is missing, you might need to install
libpng and recompile PyGame.

Re: [pygame] Help with pygame
I use a Mac, and while I have compiled from source, I wouldn't recommend it because you still have to manage getting the dependencies yourself (meaning libpng, libjpg and sdl and maybe a couple others) I would use a prebuilt installer on this page, if you can find one that works: http://pygame.org/download.shtml the prebuilt installers *should* have been made to include all the dependencies linked in a static or embedded way when possible (so as to avoid replacing shared components for other software) On Wed, Dec 14, 2011 at 1:51 PM, Zack Baker zbaker1...@gmail.com wrote: Ok, I have deleted everything pygame I could find an now I'm going to reinstall it.

Re: [pygame] Help with pygame
Can you please post images.BMP? You know, the image file you actually tried
to load? I think it's possible your pygame was installed without support
for file types other than uncompressed BMP. Try putting this in the python
interpreter and tell us what you get. (Copy and paste the output exactly as
you get it. Don't try to summarize):
open(images.BMP) ; import pygame ; pygame.image.get_extended() ;
pygame.image.load(images.BMP)
Just a helpful tip, but it's kind of frustrating for people to try to help
you when you keep switching it around. It's great to try to work things
out, but you need to be consistent when you ask for help. Don't say this
code snippet produces this error if the error was actually produced by a

Re: [pygame] Help with pygame
There's no way that code matches that error... the code tries to load
car.jpeg, and the error is from a line that tried to load
images.BMP.
So what's the actual name of the image? If you're not sure, what do
you get when you type ls from a command prompt in the same directory
as the python script? Or maybe you can attach the image to your reply
for others to try your code with?
My guess at the problem is you have not tried the actual filename yet.
You need to load the image file by it's actual filename, spelled
exactly correctly. And since you are having the error on a mac, it
must also have the current capitalization.

The message is LNK1181: unable to open input file 'obj\win32\scale_mmx.obj') Well, I am open to anything that could help me have pygame without installing Python 2.6 (nor MinGW) pygame-1.9.2pre installers for Python 2.7 are available at http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pygame P.S. : I had to patch the file Setup because SDL was not found. I just replaced the /NEED_INCLUDE_PATH_FIXED and lib path. It works for the previous libs to compile. P.P.S. : I understand that obj\win32\scale_mmx.obj is the missing file. I don't know how to have it. I tried to use the scale_mmx.obj compiled in temp.win32-2.7/... but the linking is not better : 8 external links missing. Thank you so much !

Re: [pygame] Help configuring Pygame on OS X Leopard
That's exactly what I think might have happened to me... (1) I installed all the available modules from: http://pythonmac.org/packages/py25-fat/index.html (2) These files installed the modules in separate places under: /Developer/Python (3) When I ran the shell and tried to import pygame: Falcon:~ untz$ python Python 2.5 (r25:51918, Sep 19 2006, 08:49:13) [GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5341)] on darwin Type help, copyright, credits or license for more information. import pygame Traceback (most recent call last): File stdin, line 1, in module ImportError: No module named pygame (4) I then attempted to install Pygame by using MacPorts: sudo port install pygame The ObjcPy and Numeric libraries (dependencies) had errors when MacPorts was trying to install them... MacPorts installs everything under: /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/python Whereas the package ( see line item (1) ) from: http://pythonmac.org/packages/py25-fat/index.html Installs ObjectiveC Python inside: /Developer/Python/PyObjC Another person on Pygame's mailing list stated that the Python 2.5 isn't supported by Pygame and that's why there's no packaged bundle of Pygame available for the Mac Python 2.5 interpreter... He was forced to revert back to Python 2.4, in order, to use Pygame... I don't understand why there's no universal installer for OS X which installs everything in the right place or at least sets some environmental variables pointing extended Python libraries. Am not very well versed with configuring Python based systems... Any help is greatly appreciated!

I'm not sure how it would hurt your system, it installs everything into it's own directory structure (under /sw by default). If you remove that directory, you remove all trace of it. Fink is very widely used and is a very convenient way to install OSS on OSX. It's never caused me any problems and I know several others who have used it without incident. You can however, screw up your system by modifying the system python, which OSX uses in various places. So at the very least, you'll want to install your own python somewhere before setting up pygame. -Casey
