Hello Ted,
Okay, I checked out the new version on my Kubuntu Linux (essentially Ubuntu).
The first thing I noticed is that it went into fullscreen mode, which worked, but I have my desktop spread over two monitors and due to the way the monitors are situated, itâs not truly a complete rectangular region (theyâre staggered). Anyway, I prefer to play games in a window otherwise I wonât see parts of the play field. I looked in the code to find where youâre setting it to full screen and it wasnât obvious, so I gave up that.
Continuing on... I didnât see an intro movie, but I got to a title screen (I think) and then I clicked around and it crashed:
> python TimeTrek.py ffmpeg version 0.8.10-6:0.8.10-0ubuntu0.13.10.1, Copyright (c) 2000-2013 the Libav developers Movies/Preintro.avi: No such file or directory Traceback (most recent call last): File "TimeTrek.py", line 3129, in <module> main() File "TimeTrek.py", line 158, in main imageload() File "TimeTrek.py", line 3035, in imageload bop[i] = pygame.image.load("Images/Bird of Pray/"+imgscale+"/bop00" + str(i+1).rjust(2,"0") + ".png") pygame.error: Couldn't open Images/Bird of Pray/high/bop0001.png
The reason why it was saying:
Movies/Preintro.avi: No such file or directory
is because file names are case-sensitive under Linux and it should say Movies/PreIntro.avi (capital I not i)
Probably same thing with the bop0001.png.
Iâd suggest downloading and installing Ubuntu 14.04. Itâs so much fun to develop under Linux, and thereâs so many tools that itâs an embarrassment of riches.
Keep trying!
