Closed rodjun closed 6 years ago

I'm having a hard time building from source on windows 10 64bit with python 3.5, i found this online but i don't know what testpypi is about and why it's not on normal pypi.

https://testpypi.python.org/pypi/pygame_sdl2

That's the only pre-compiled version of pygame_sdl2 that i found for python 3.5 64bit on windows

Have you cloned the Windows dependencies.

OR

Try downloading from the RenpyTom's server (http://nightly.renpy.org/current/), it's the top one.

PS: It helps if you tell us the errors you're getting. I presume the reason the package is only on the testing PyPi because Tom doesn't think it's properly finished just yet. Testing PyPi is from the same company as the normal one.

Yeah i've cloned the dependencies, the problem is related to the compiler version, the version used by python 3.5 is vc15 and that's the one i have, but setup.py returns

ValueError: Unknown MS Compiler version 1900

And that "nightly" is just a zip of the repo, it fails to install with the same error.

Ok, try using pip to install the wheels on PyPi
