Starting the different files #7

Hi guys. I have a completely basic question. How can I start the different Python scripts. Manim is properly installed and ready to run. However, I don't know how to proceed here. Can you help me? With kind regards @Zeyecx

PS C:\...\videos> python .\_2020\chess.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\Zeyecx\Desktop\tmp\videos\_2020\chess.py", line 1, in <module>
    from manim_imports_ext import *
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'manim_imports_ext'

Even in manim itself, I cannot start the project.

Adding the folder where the manim_imports_ext.py file is located to the PATH or PYTHONPATH environment variable may solve this.

Unfortunately, I could not solve the problem this way. I am also sure that I did it correctly. The problem remains the same.

In addition, I tried putting a project from one year into the same folder as the import. However, this was also unsuccessful. Even though the error was different. Manim itself works for me without any major problems.

@Wleisure95. Were you able to solve the problem with @TonyCrane's tip? Maybe the problem is really just me.

Hello,

Trying to make the videos from this repository during a couple of hours, I didn't manage to make it work either. The problem seems to be deeper than a simple dependency issue, it seems that some 'scene' classes such as 'ExternallyAnimatedScene' or 'TeacherStudentScene' are missing in these folders.

I played around with the folder structure a bit. Now it finds the import list. However, it does not find a scene in the respective Python file. image

please don't use the community version of manim to render 3b1b's projects

Ok. I didn't know there was a difference until now. I apologise for that. With kind regards @Zeyecx

I have now installed the other version. Unfortunately, it doesn't work with it either.

I can import 'manim_imports_ext' export PATH=path/to/the/file/:$PATH
