Edit script and window error

#1 Post by failen-moon »

I am new to the forum as much as I am new to Ren'Py.

I tried to open Edit Script, but everytimes I open it, it keep saying Error Launching the editor failed.

And when I open the renpy.exe.log, there's a traceback message:

Code: Select all

  File "D:\ST1\ST's\Renpy\renpy-6.13.12\renpy\editor.py", line 146, in launch_editor
  File "D:\ST1\ST's\Renpy\renpy-6.13.12\launcher\jEdit.edit.py", line 40, in end
  File "subprocess.pyo", line 623, in __init__
  File "subprocess.pyo", line 833, in _execute_child
WindowsError: [Error 2] The system cannot find the file specified
Thank you for reading.

I'm no expert that can tell from the error code, but most of the time, people have errors for not having Java installed. J-Edit needs java to run.

Not really checking the forums any more due to time constraints, so if you want to contact me, PM. I'll get a notification and log in. :mrgreen:
Also, I've been hit and run posting, which means I don't see many replies. If you want to respond to something I've said, also feel free to PM me.

NOTE: if you've got questions about vnovel or things like that, it's Leon that you should be contacting. Leon's been pretty much handling everything, but due to various reasons, I've had to withdraw entirely.
