PyGame Installation

[Ruchit Bhatt]

Hi, Need help to install PyGame module for Maya 2016 x64.

I downloaded 64bit PyGame Lib from Christoph Gohlke PY LIB
site and i installed successfully in "C:\Python27" using "pip install *.whl" command.
After that i copied PyGame folder from "C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages" & paste in "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2016\Python\Lib\site-packages".

And then run import pygame in Maya script editor & got below error....

# Error: ImportError: file C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2016\Python\lib\site-packages\pygame\__init__.py line 142: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found. #

it works fine in python shell, only problem is inside Maya.

You can't use compiled extension libraries from standard python27 with Maya's internal python interpreter.

You'll need to recompile the extension with Visual Studio 2012, because standard python27 is compiled against vs2008.

Hi,
is it possible to install any python package through script editor using easy_install setuptools??

It is a library module, so as long as you don't have any permission issues, sure why not. 

However this topic is now different than the original one you posted.
