Re: [pygame] controlled midi playback

I guess it is getting late. LIBCMT.LIB is one version of the VC 6.0 C library, so apparently isn't present in VC 7.1. I expect uuid.lib is still be available. I am not so sure about OLDNAMES.LIB, but then you did not mention a LNK1104 for it so I assume it is also available. So try replacing li

Re: [pygame] Collision Resolver module

This is awesome; it certainly will save me a lot of trouble, and I agree that including it as part of PyGame would be a smart move.

Re: [pygame] controlled midi playback

Python 2.5 extensions are compiled on Windows with vctoolkit2003 by default. It is the same compiler used on Python 2.5. When I compile with MinGW I get these warnings: Warning: .drectve `-defaultlib:LIBCMT ' unrecognized Warning: .drectve `-defaultlib:OLDNAMES ' unrecognized Warning: .drectve

Re: [pygame] controlled midi playback

that fixed the pyrex problem. i have the .c file now but there is another problem i ran into. i tried to use code::blocks and the vctoolkit2003 to compile the extension. i get this error message: fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'LIBCMTD.LIB ' maybe you can give me another tip? what compile

Re: [pygame] controlled midi playback

Yeah. To make Pyrex compatible with C++ enumerations are no longer treated as integers, though assignment of an enumeration to an integer is still allowd. Not accepting an enumeration as a boolean value may be a bug. I would have to check. But then again it makes some sense. Just edit line 357

thanks! and does anyone know if there are examples somewhere? like a simple program which allows you to play a midi instrument (best using the integrated synthesizer on the sound card) with the computer keyboard? On 1/1/08, Lenard Lindstrom <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Try http://alumni.media.

Re: [pygame] Collision Resolver module

I'm not sure what tutorial you're referring to. What this collision_resolver module does that the provided tools do not do is detect collisions that happened inside the hexagon that the rect travelled through, and provide an easy way to resolve the collisions so that the moving rect can be "blocke

Re: [pygame] Virtual attributes of pygame.Rect

If the self argument ( sean's post ) doesn't fix the problem, it could be that the Rect() is actually a tuple. I ran into this before. To fix this, see: http://www.mail-archive.com/pygame-users@seul.org/msg05338.html On Dec 26, 2007 4:04 AM, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Hi everyone, > > Fir

Re: [pygame] Collision Resolver module

I don't think it's bloat, nor does it belong in a specific game engine. A game engine is something designed to work for a particular genre of game. This is a general problem that will be seen in many types of game. Genres that this problem *must* be solved for: Platformers, Shoot-em-up, Any top-

Re: [pygame] convert() bug?

I load png and jpg on Linux mac and win with no problems so far. I assume every distro of pygame has image_ext in it, and that it provides a consistent level of format support across all platforms in the load function. I would say if you experience something that isn't consistent in that way, it sh

Re: [pygame] Collision Resolver module

Perhaps the collission-resolver module should be included in a "Game Engine" leaving PyGame as is? The collission-resolver is a really nice module, but adding it to PyGame seems like the beginning of creeping feature bloat? I'd rather see it added to a Game Engine, and have a nice tutorial written
