I’m not sure if I should be asking here about this, but on my Mac computer,
Pygame keeps crashing on me. I have Python 2.7.13 (I can’t use Python 3 because
I’m learning from and online course and he’s using Python 2.7.13. Unless you
can give me a list or something for all the differences, I am completely new to
Python, and a beginner programer.) Mac OS X 32-bit i386/PPC installer. I got my
version of Pygame from Pygame.org <http://pygame.org/>, I downloaded the
pygame-1.9.1release-python.org-32bit-py2.7-macosx10.3.dmg
<http://pygame.org/ftp/pygame-1.9.1release-python.org-32bit-py2.7-macosx10.3.dmg>.
It’s working until I actually try to draw anything on my screen. For example,
I can run the following code and it works just fine.
import pygame
pygame.init()
screen = pygame.display.set_mode((900,700))
finished = False
while finished == False:
for event in pygame.event.get():
if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
finished = True
But when I run the following code, the Pygame window opens for a split second,
then closes and I get a message from my Mac saying Python (My pygame window,
not Python IDLE) quit unexpectedly. I’ve looked to see where it crashes and
it’s when it reaches where it’s suppose to draw the rectangle. I can’t even see
the rectangle for the split second while it’s open. (which if it crashes at
that part, it makes sense.)
import pygame
pygame.init()
screen = pygame.display.set_mode((900,700))
finished = False
while finished == False:
for event in pygame.event.get():
if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
finished = True
rectOne = pygame.Rect(0,0,800,450)
color = (0,0,255) #R,G,B
pygame.draw.rect(screen,color,rectOne)
pygame.display.flip()
I’ll try and give you as much info about my Mac as I can, as I think it’s the
computer itself that’s the problem. But if you can’t help me, I do have a
windows 10 laptop that I’ve tried putting Pygame on that we could see if you
could help me put Pygame on that. I can’t seem to get the right one. I’d rather
it on the Mac. I have tried many tutorials as well and nothing is working. I
have a 2010 iMac (Old I know) with a 3.06 GHz Intel Core i3 Processor. Graphics
are ATI Radeon HD 4670 256 MB. My OS Is X El Capitan Version 10.11.6. I don’t
know what of that info you need, or if you need more, but that’s about it. If
you could please help me with my problem, it would be much appreciated. I
already tried stack overflow, and that didn’t work. I also think it is the
computer because someone on there ran my code and it worked just fine. Thanks.
