[pygame] Default Font Not Found
Hi. I just now tried to build an EXE, using Py2EXE, of my Pygame game
demo. It crashed with the error, "Default Font Not Found." According to
my notes I've faced this problem before, and dealt with it by copying
freesansbold.ttf from the Windows directory to the \dist directory of my
game. But this time that had no effect! I even tried changing the
capitalization of that file's name, or putting it into the "library.zip"
for the demo.
This is the first EXE I've tried to build using code that's divided into
several directories for the various modules.
The error appears in driftwood.pyc, the interface code. My code is
organized like this:
\DarkSide
Python files
\Driftwood
A Python file
\Conch (sound code)
A Python file
\graphics
\sound
I copied the main DarkSide .py files, and the Driftwood and Conch
directories into C:\Python24, viz:
\Python24
Python files including setup.py
\Driftwood
A Python file
\Conch (sound code)
A Python file
Then I went to \Python24 and typed "python setup.py py2exe," the command
that in the past has let me successfully build programs.
Then I put the graphics and sound directories into the \dist directory
that got built.
What am I doing wrong?
