Re: [pygame] Help? pygame for python 3.7 windows

Hi,

here are some things that could be tested...

python -m pygame.tests
python -m pygame.examples.aliens
python -m pygame.examples. ...

Also, if there is a pygame app that you know, then seeing if that works as
before would be a good test.


cheers,

Re: [pygame] Help? Alpha changes (regressions?) in 1.9.3 vs 1.9.2?

[René Dudfield]

Thanks. So, I guess it's worth fixing before the release. Yes, those are
the same bug reports on the mailing list, and the old bitbucket. But I
guess the change was probably made some years before those reports.

We still need to find when the issue was introduced, and have a test case
for it.

Re: [pygame] Help? Alpha changes (regressions?) in 1.9.3 vs 1.9.2?

[Ian Mallett]

​Hi,

As to finding the commit, can't one find the place where the behavior is
implemented, and then check the logs for that line/file to see which commit
introduced it? A trivial search of my email for "SRCALPHA" produces the
thread "trouble w/ SRCALPHA in 1.9.2-cp27
", where this
same issue was raised (ref. issue #340

on Bitbucket, by presumably-same user even). At the time no one stepped
forward to address it significantly.

As to whether the behavior is good, I contend it is bad. SRCALPHA and
per-surface alpha are *very* different, and confusing them is a classic
newbie mistake. Now, I don't use the flags myself, and even presuming
pygame uses them internally, I use per-surface alpha rarely at-most, so it
doesn't really affect me. But it is semantically incorrect.

Re: [pygame] Help testing windows builds?

[René Dudfield]

Hellos,

   - There are some new wheels up now. If you have a mac, please `pip
   install pygame`? Note, you can use a virtualenv now, so you don't need to
   install it in your system site-packages.
   - The building of the dependencies is automated using homebrew recipes.
   - The wheels are uploaded to pypi automatically.
   - It should work for Mac OS 10.9, 10.10, and 10.11.

This makes me quite excited as we now have windows, mac, and ubuntu builds
being done by various services.


cheers,

 Alternatively, we could declare the current state 'beta 1' and

 it.

René has just pushed some Mac wheels to PyPI as well, so anyone on OSX
10.11 can also try 'pip install --pre pygame'. There are wheels for Python
3.5 and 2.7.

You can do it inside a virtualenv to isolate it from your existing
installation. Weird quirks: hopefully not, but that's what we hope to find
out. :)

 At the moment, the crucial thing that's holding up a release is
 testing and fixing some issues on Mac. Anyone who might be able to help
 with that, see:

Re: [pygame] Help testing windows builds?

[Thomas Kluyver]

If you're on windows, yes, you can try a beta version by running:

pip install --pre pygame

Paul, any chance of getting an sdist uploaded too? Clone the source and run
python setup.py sdist. That would let people try it on other platforms too.

 I'd give access to you Thomas to upload, but I get a second login
 screen when I try, and it doesn't accept my login when I enter it. So I
 might have upload permission, but not admin permission?

 Paul, would you be willing to upload some fresh files? Or to give me upload
 access?

 Alternatively, we could declare the current state 'beta 1' and upload
 it as a prerelease on PyPI. That would need René or Paul to do it.

Re: [pygame] Help testing windows builds?

[Thomas Kluyver]

Thanks Paul :-)

I've just pushed a commit to set the version number to 1.9.2b1. This is now
building on Appveyor:
https://ci.appveyor.com/project/pygame/pygame-temp-m8dun/build/1.0.11

Once that has finished - probably in about 5 minutes - could you download
the 6 wheels that produces, make an sdist from the source, and upload the
lot with twine? I can assemble the 7 files and email them to you if you
prefer.

I know it's not immediately obvious how to get and install pygame from that
page. So here's a quick guide:

1. Pick the version of Python you can test. We're building Pygame for
Python 3.5, 3.4 and 2.7, and for 32 and 64 bit Python (you need to get the
build matching your Python bitness - you may have 32-bit Python even if
Windows is 64-bit).
2. In the relevant build, click the artifacts tab and download the .whl
file.
3. Install it from the command prompt by running: pip install
pygame-(...).whl

These steps are only necessary for testing the unreleased version. When
pygame 1.9.2 is released, you'll be able to 'pip install pygame' and get it
from PyPI.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi

Make sure that your python and pygame version have the same bit-ness (64 bit
python can't load pygame compiled for 32 bit and vice versa).

The only pygame 64 bit Version I know can be found here:
http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pygame


Hope that helps.

Re: [pygame] Help me!

[Ian Mallett]

​Sounds like a Windows variety. I'm not sure why you'd expect it to appear
in the start menu, though. It's an API, not a program.

You can check if PyGame is installed by opening a Python terminal (Python
IDLE, probably), typing import pygame, and then waiting to see if it
barfs.

​Sounds like a Windows variety. I'm not sure why you'd expect it to appear in 
the start menu, though. It's an API, not a program.

You can check if PyGame is installed by opening a Python terminal (Python IDLE, 
probably), typing import pygame, and then waiting to see if it barfs.

Sorry for the mix up. I just noticed it was you who responded and not

that the description of the procedure includes the responses of the

Re: [pygame] Help me!

[tom arnall]

Hi Oliver!

Providing us with the set of instructions on the web page is a good
start. Now let me suggest what may turn out to be a giant step forward
from it.

Use the information on the web page to create a text-only set of
instructions for the procedure. Then carefully follow (and probably
revise) the instructions. This may be overkill for the problem at
hand, but the ability to create a completely accurate set of
instructions for a procedure is extremely useful in dealing with many
of the problems which we encounter in our efforts to get them ones a
zeros to behave. You wdn't start writing code without doing the
pseudo-code first, right? At any rate, try writing the instructions. I
think you will find the solution to the installation problem if you do
so.

But I need to solve this problem now! And why is this guy being such
a priss? That may come to yr mind as you read this advice. I totally
understand. I know a lot of competent systems builders. We all suffer
from that state of mind now and then.

I hope very much I've helped you,

Tom

Hi,

Because this is a fragment of your code, it is difficult to speak definitively.

It looks like you are setting a taking the intended destination of your character and turning it into a heading. I 
suspect that is where your error is. Your character is walking near the destination, and then past it, because the 
bearing you are using is not accurate.


Either there is a bug in your .destination - .heading code, or the .heading is 
not exact enough.

Re: [pygame] help with clock

[Nicholas Seward]

One solution would be to draw the clock flipped over the x axis and mirror
your surface back before the flip.  This will make the top be rock steady
but the ends will now be jerky.  You could definitely make both ends smooth
but you would have to simulate the drawing of the arc through a series of
lines.  This will give you some more problems due to the lack of sub
pixel support.  You could use aaline for sub pixel support but you would
have to be mean to the processor to get a nice filled in arc.  Drawing
might be better achieved through another library.  pycairo looks
very promising.

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.

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

[Brian Fisher]

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)

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

How big is the bmp?

Also, you might think this is pretty obvious, but it surprises me how 
many people I've seen make this mistake, so I'll mention it anyway, just 
in case... renaming a file with a different extension won't make it the 
right kind of file. For instance renaming a jpeg file from blah.jpg to 
blah.bmp doesn't make it a bmp file. It must be loaded into a graphics 
program like Gimp then saved out as the new format.

 There are a lot of problems with the script you posted, but the error
you are getting says that the first problem is with loading the image
file, so might as well start there.

 So on your next reply, please attach the image file you are trying to

Re: [pygame] Help with pygame

[Brian Fisher]

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.

Re: [pygame] Help with pygame.transform.threshold

[René Dudfield]

Hi,

I think it is a bug.

If you have change_return = 1, then it compares your color (RED) to each
pixel in surface2, and makes the pixels in surface1 (WHITE) which are within
the threadhold (0,0,0) of (RED). However since you have inverse=True, it
makes the pixels that are not within the threshold of RED WHITE.

Is that what you wanted?

Really, the function should work by passing in None... however it seems to
require a Surface there when you're not using it.

 Hi!
 I'm trying to use the threshold function in a roguelike to get appropriate

 used pygame.transform.threshold(surface1, surface2, WHITE, (0,0,0), RED, 1,
 None, True).
 However, it keeps complaining TypeError: must be pygame.Surface, not
 None.
 If I change the None to a Surface it works, but obviously not the way I
 intended to use the function... Is this simply a bug, or am I doing
 something
 wrong?

Re: [pygame] Help - Events

When you get a mouse button down event, store the mouse location.

When you get a mouse button up event, check if the cursor location in
the mouse up event is the same as the location in the last mouse
button down event. If so, handle the removal. Else, handle the
dragging.

Hope this helps you.

this is a function of GameFloor class; the event handler. It puts the tile

Re: [pygame] Help - Events

Oh, I see. In this case, I would use a variable 'held' to indicate the
tile that is picked up. 'held' would be None if the no tile is held.

When a mouse down event is received, if there is a piece in 'held'
(held is not None), place it. If 'held' is None, then remove the tile
at the mouse location.

so, I kind of did that. But the var name is dragging instead of held. when
dragging is true, it didnt run the code of removing. Else, it checks and
removes. But what happens is that it first puts the tile, and then removes
it, with the same click... I thought the mousebuttondown was still on the
event queue so I tried to clear it, also without succes...

 When a mouse down event is received, if there is a piece in 'held'
 (held is not None), place it. If 'held' is None, then remove the tile
 at the mouse location.

Re: [pygame] Help - Events

[Thiago Petruccelli]

In fact, due to my inexperience in pygame, I didn't know where to treat
events - in the main class of the game or in the objects that the event
affects. So, part of the event handling is in the main class and part in the
objects, what I think is bad practise of programming.

So I also wanted to ask wich is best, handle events in the main class or in
the objects...

Re: [pygame] help

You need the geany console for debugging. If you didn't have it, then you
wouldn't catch any errors ;-)

Yes, I was thinking that, but the error seems to be a Python exception
(indeed that's what sys.exit() does).  Perhaps the error is Python 2.6
specific? Ian

Re: [pygame] help

[Charlie Nolan]

I'm guessing it's working as designed.  Idle assumes you don't want it
to quit, so it catches the exception.

No, it hapens also with 2.4 .
I usually edit with IDLE an run the prog from an OS console to avoid
problems.

 You can try this:

# dont use sys.exit, let execution find the end of file.

If even that has problems, then out of the loop and before the EOF do

Fixing IDLE with pygame issues. Re: [pygame] help

[René Dudfield]

hi,

try running your code from a terminal... you'll find it much nicer.

Then you can try using something like ipython which is very cool.  Much like
an IDE without a text editor, but you'll have to try it to see it's
awesomeness.

IDLE + pygame have issues.  Other IDE's can run pygame stuff fine, however
IDLE requires these weird hacks.  Maybe they can be fixed on the pygame
side... but not sure.  Anyone have any ideas on how we could either supply a
patch to IDLE, or patch pygame to fix it?

cheers,
