Re: [pygame] My game - Time Trek

Super cool Ted. The video was indeed worth it...

And thanks for pointing out that distro with the video module enabled.

I've changed the code skip the movies if either the movie module is missing or there's a problem loading a movie.

Looks like Pygame has a movie lib no matter what, but in some cases it raises a NotImplementedError based on your platform. So checking if it imports isn't enough, you'd have to catch the NotImplementedError when creating the movie and skip the movie during that function.

i used..
try:
  from pygame import movie
  print "ok"
except:
  print"error"

and it printed ok so that means i have the movies module. But then why all those errors?
are you using absolute paths for the movies?

Thanks Michael for your comments.

Does anyone know what the future is for the movie module ? Will be eventually be included in all builds ? It would be great if it also supported a more modern video format (mpeg1 is not great for HD movies).

Or should I be looking for an alternative ? I did see a post somewhere about piping data to/from ffmpeg ?

Cheers,

Ted.

Hello Ted,

Thatâs quite the effort, and Iâd love to give it a go on my Kubunutu Linux setup, but the pygame movie module isnât implemented here, so my pygame cannot play the .mpg videos :(

python TimeTrek.py

 Âmovie = pygame.movie.Movie("movies/PreIntro.mpg")

It would be great if you could get an account on pygame.org so you could post your game there for discovery and feedback.

Can anyone here help Ted showcase his game on pygame.org?

Michael

Hi guys,

I've been unsuccessful at getting registered on pygame.org, so I thought
I'd post a link to my game here. Sorry if that's the wrong thing to do.

My game (Time Trek) is based on a game I played on the TRS-80 (micro
computer from the late 70s). I've updated... everything a bit :-)

Here's a link to download it :-

https://mega.co.nz/#!QZMTgR6S!4DJQ8KvQ5VdXwnCKIR63ouU2ng0z7Q93c4kzE3A1foo

It requires python 2.7 and a pygame 1.9.2 that contains the movie module
(http://pygame.org/ftp/pygame-1.9.2a0.win32-py2.7.msi).
Also at least a core 2 duo or better processor.

I hope you enjoy it and any feedback is welcome.

Cheers,

Ted.
