Anyone running v0.57 on Windows 10? Help needed

[Steve Trischetta]

I've got some time to resume my efforts to get the latest MPF release running on my Windows 10 PC. 

If someone has successfully got that configuration running, would you please provide your pip list and Python version?  I'm hoping that will give me some clues as to what I should try next.

Thanks, Steve

Hi,

I recently succeed on installing  everything on a fresh win10 22H2 version.   Python version is 3.11.6

Be careful with  ruamel_yaml_clib v 0.2.15 package taht is installed with mpf.  This one is in conflict with mpf-mc.    Uninstall it and run pip install ruamel.yaml.clib==0.2.12 before installing mpf-mc

There is an other conflict with last mpf-monitor version and pillow package.  Run pip install mpf-monitor==0.57.1 instead.

Thanks so much for your help!  I was able to get a configuration that didn't fail the build.  Unfortunately, I'm still unable to get my game running, as it is built on a P3-ROC board.  I'm getting 'pinproc not found'.  I see that others have had the same problem.

If someone is running P3-ROC hardware on Windows 10, can you please share how you got it working?

Thanks, Steve

Could use some advisement.

-PC is running windows 10

-MPF Version is V0.56.0

-Python Version is 3.9.13 (Although I think there is a 2.7.18 version installed as well)

I currently have one game running and about to start coding for another.

Should I upgrade my MPF and Python versions before I do?

I think this is what Steve is doing but if I should upgrade I need a dumbed down version for a path to do so 

[Bob]

Just bumping this up...

Has anyone performed an upgrade to version: 0.80.0 released April 25, 2026?

[Anthony van Winkle]

I haven't upgraded any projects from 0.57 to 0.80 but the MPF side of them is the same. The only difference between 0.57 and 0.80 is that 0.57 uses the old Kivy-based media controller (MPF-MC) and 0.80 uses the new Godot-based media controller (MPF-GMC). If you're starting a new project then 0.80 + GMC is absolutely the way to go, but if you already have a project on 0.57 that's where you should stay (or the future 0.58, 0.59, etc). 0.57 will receive long-term support and all features and bugfixes go there as well, so there's no requirement to switch to 0.80.

[Bob]

Thanks Anthony. For some reason I thought the new version had more features. I'll go along with your reasoning though and stick with 0.57. Appreciate the response.
