renpygame-demo crashes.... :(

[valeatory]

I was attempting to check out the new feature, but when I launched it, (without any tampering) it crashed right after Eileen says "Good luck!" and gives me this traceback:

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but an exception occured while executing your Ren'Py
script.

I am running the latest version of Ren'py, downloaded a few minutes ago. What's wrong?

I have the same error when trying to launch renpygame-demo. I can't say for sure but I think it's because I don't have python and some other software installed, both which is required to play a python created game (the thing renpygame is trying to execute before crashing). Can anyone confirm this?

[Scott]

I've never installed python either. I'm assuming that ren'py has a built-in python compiler since it produces .rpc files.

[PyTom]

Try the attached update, which should fix the problems. Basically, there were two problems:

- On windows, os.path.join was producing paths with backslashes in them, which Ren'Py doesn't like. Solution: replace calls to os.path.join with calls to a function that joins paths using '/'.

- The error was being reported improperly, because pygame.error was missing.

The attached file should fix both problems. Let me know that it works, and I'll upload it to the website.

[sanity]

Great job! Now the demo works fine.

About the backslash, fiddling with code I've discovered that the following instruction works too:

Code: Select all

file = os.path.join('data/', file)

(Anyway, this is odd... Having to add manually an os-dependent separator defies the reason of the os.path module, in my opinion)

By the way, I've just noticed another little issue. If you press the Escape key during the demo, another crash happens.

IIRC, Python should understand any separator on any platform, so it's not exactly OS dependent. Unfortunately, if Ren'Py itself "doesn't like" backslashes, it doesn't really matter what Python supports.

P.S. I didn't seem to have a problem with the renpygame demo, even before upgrading... I wonder why?

Sorry I didn't reply sooner, but it works now, so thanks a lot!!!
