not really, i have been programming as a website developer in actionscript for a few years, and i did a game in lingo 3d years ago, i always wanted to experiment a bit more with 3d stuff so i found panda3d and began to learn python. after one month of try-error-try-error i more or less understood the fundamentals, and realized that python is REALLY a wonderfull language, so easy to learn, wich i recommend to everyone. What i want to do now is to adquire a more deep knowledge of object oriented concept, so i can better organize things.
I’m currently writting down another tilebased project for panda3d, wich i hope will be better structured and simplified, more like a tutorial, kind of a 3d rendered roguelike thing, paying attention to simple mechanics, more than the graphic stuff
yes, unfortunatelly there’s more than one bug in this
a main one is that changing retro mode to false does NOT work, there’s a conflict when randomly locating objects like trees and crates etc
the effects of ultra coffee and sleepless mind
The debugged program raised the exception unhandled StandardError
"No graphics pipe is available! Your Config.prc file must name at least one valid panda display library via load-display or aux-display."
File: /usr/share/panda3d/direct/directnotify/Notifier.py, Line: 130
Break here?
at the begining of Main.py i set some instructions for the loadPrcFileData
via this command i also set the load-display to pandagl
looks to me that your problem has something to do with that?

I am in WIndows 7 testing the app- very nice and I love retro look. Helps me remember when my oldest duaghter was just starting out on video games learning Spyro.
Good job. When I get back to Ubuntu Ill try it with ProRsoft’s suggestion.
well glad to see u could run it jbs
treeform, the app doesnt contain any audio prog at all
so must be some conflict between your system and the FmodAudioLib (?)

Darn. Looks like this is another of snaptothegrid’s works that can’t be obtained from their original host. I may as well ask here as well then. Anyone have a copy of this?
