Thanks for the details - with your help I was able to identify the issue. The version of NetworkX installed by the Mint 11 package manager is 1.1, which has the exceptions handled differently. I put a check in the code for versions < 1.5 in case this happens to others. Thanks for your help and feedback.

It started working for me. I had python-networkx installed as well as had run the commands that you gave me. I uninstalled python-networkx and then ran -- sudo easy_install networkx -- This time the command did a few more things. I am now able to play Exogene. I guess you just can't have python-networkx and the easy_install networkx installed at the same time. Here is the test for you. This is when I had python-networkx installed. > python Python 2.7.1+ (r271:86832, Apr 11 2011, 18:05:24) [GCC 4.5.2] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import networkx >>> networkx.exception.NetworkXNoPath Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'NetworkXNoPath' >>> Thank you very much.

@Zachariah - I built a Mint 11 VM on VirtualBox and still struggling to reproduce the problem you have. After the build I installed pygame, easy_install and then networkx. > sudo apt-get install python-pygame > sudo apt-get install python-setuptools > sudo easy_install networkx Then the game seems to run fine. If I check NetworkX it seems that the exception class does exist, > python Python 2.7.1+ (e271:86832, Apr 11 2011, 18:05:24 [GCC 4.5.2] on linux2 >>> import networkx >>> networkx.exception.NetworkXNoPath <class 'networkx.exception.NetworkXNoPath'> Could you try the above test and let me know what you get? Thanks.

Sorry you are having problems Zachariah. I am downloading Mint 11 now to try this out. I wasn't able to reproduce the problem with NetworkX 1.5 or 1.6. It looks like the package is either not installed properly or there is a version issue. Do you know what version you have running? (sudo easy_install networkx should tell you) Thanks.

I'm using linux Mint 11. From the video this looks like one of the best tower defense games I've seen. I was able to install python-networkx from the terminal and it started. But now it tells me: File "/home/oem/Downloads/exogene/game/board.py", line 154, in getBestPath except (networkx.exception.NetworkXNoPath, KeyError), err: AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'NetworkXNoPath' Sure would be cool to see this work.
