updated from dev .53.77 to dev .54 error when running game

[Ryan McQuaid]

I updated to the latest dev release so I could take advantage of the fixed duplicate sound effects now getting this error when running my game:


TypeError: set_fade() takes 2 positional arguments but 5 were given

I can run the demo man demo just fine. Any idea what could be causing this?

Which platform is that? I changed something to reduce the fade overhead. I need to fix that.

I meant the platform in MPF. John guessed VPX and is also already working on the fix.

Fixed in dev5. Thanks John!
