Cocos2D to EXE

[Jason]

Hello everyone,

I did a few little games in pygame, and used a pretty nifty python
script hosted on the pygame site called pygame to exe, which inherited
from python to exe and dealt with all of the hassle of converting a
python program to a windows executable.

Is there a comparable thing for Cocos2D? Or do I have to refigure out
how python2Exe works (I remember it being a little problematic).

Cheers,

Jason

Py2Exe seemed to work better for me. PyInstaller crapped out for a reason I couldn't figure out.

At the end of the process I got all the various files that makes a cocos2D windows install. I ran the exe on my machine (Windows XP), worked fine. I zipped it up and tried it on another PC (Windows 7) and it boots up, runs, there's even the debug messages printing to console, but the screen is just black.

Is this a common error with a common solution? Or do I just need to dig through the internet and figure it out?

Thanks in advance!

Some pyweeks ago someone packed a cocos game with gui2exe + py2exe, the only problem was related to particles (root cause fixed in trunk now).

For your case, my primary suspiction will go to problems with video drivers. See

http://code.google.com/p/los-cocos/issues/detail?id=174

http://code.google.com/p/pyglet/issues/detail?id=575

Another possibility : the win7 is 64bits ? pyglet 1.2dev default has received some patches to work in win 64, but being not released has seen little of real world testing.

Here are some more interesting data points. Works on my friends Windows 7 64bit AND on my coworker's Windows 7 64bit. I think your primary suspicion about graphics drivers is correct. I'm going to upgrade the drivers on this box and see what happens.

Thanks!
