Y I K E S. We do not support python 2. You very much so need to update python versions. We support 3.5-7

Maxwell175 commented 6 years ago

I'm supporting a very old massive game so it will be VERY complicated to upgrade. -_-

Oh well... thanks anyways.

qwertyquerty commented 6 years ago

What game?

Maxwell175 commented 6 years ago

Toontown Fellowship. Its a revival of an old Disney game. It actually uses an old version of the panda3d game engine so first I need to port to a modern version of that (with python 3 support) and only then can I consider porting the actual game to python 3.

All this while not providing any actual new gameplay fixes/features. Although I will probably end up working on updating panda3d anyway since there are some graphical bugs that need to be fixed...

GhostofGoes commented 6 years ago

It is impossible to run this library on 2.7 due to heavy usage of asyncio, and a lack of a drop-in backport to 2.7. Sorry :(

Maxwell175 commented 6 years ago

It's OK. I managed to find another much more basic library that I could backport and make it work to my needs.

qwertyquerty commented 6 years ago

What library? I might look at it to see if we could make a python 2 branch

Maxwell175 commented 6 years ago

https://github.com/k3rn31p4nic/discoIPC - It is very basic and completely synchronous.
