Hi, I have 2 questions that I'd appreciate if someone were to help me with. 1. How do you get SPE? I've been looking for it at Python's website, but I don't find it. 2. If you have a game in a folder, comprising of several programs and folders and pictures (possibly music), how do you turn all that into an executable file that you could send to other people? - Thanks |

Here's the site for SPE: http://pythonide.blogspot.com/ Now, to make an executable, you can use py2exe: http://www.py2exe.org/ It works pretty well, just not with pygame, unless you use the info here: http://gamedev.pansapiens.com/2008/04/packaging-a-python-game-for-distribution-on-windows/ I hope that helps! |

When I tried to download SPE, all I got was a zipped file, which contained a bunch of files, progra,s, and pics. How do I get install it, get it running ??? |

Download version 0.8.3, it has a .exe installer. 0.8.4 for windows is in testing right now. For example, heres a direct link: http://prdownload.berlios.de/python/SPE-0.8.3.c-wx2.6.1.0-py24.exe |

Thanks for this post. I didn't know about Python SPE, so I installed it...and I like it. |

It is pretty nice, and cross platform. It also starts up nice and quickly. If you wanted to use the latest version, you could install it manually. 1. Copy contents of _spe folder to _spe folder in Program Files 2. Create a shortcut to SPE.py 3. Place shortcut wherever you like. And its installed. well, as much installation as you need to do. If you are more of an expert user of windows you could always add spe to the file associations for .py and .pyw so you can right click and open the file in spe. That is an exercise left for the reader.  [/list] |
