[SOLVED]IOError: Couldn't find file '_______.png'; At startup; Aprox 1 min after restart??;

#1 Post by shyll »

Hey, I'll get started.

This game gives and gave me the belov error at startup, not showing me anything else, forcing me to quit, just to repeat it.
I've tried, un- and reinstaling, rewinding the computer, changing locale back, restarting and a little more.
The first restart showed i could launch the game and play without a problem. Trying to load a save caused a different error, quiting, and back to previous error below
Several restarts showed a delay of about 1 min from boot to error.
As long as i'm in the game, I can play till I encounter another and/or different error. Once played aprox. 2 hours.
I've talked Dev. and it's not a problem from his side.
I also tried an earlier version of the game, i last played a month ago in the middle of december, and same problem now and none then.

I am looking for any help at all i, any idea that can help me.

Please

And I'm sorry if this is the wrong place.

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While loading <'Tile' <'Image' u'_transparent_tile.png'> None>:
IOError: Couldn't find file '_transparent_tile.png'.

[solved]

A update in my sucurity program, requireing allowance to every single executable kept blocking the file's.

again thanks for trying

Is the file present on your system? It should be in renpy/common.

Then I don't know why your computer can't find it.
