The Ultimate Platforming Hero - Jul 21 09

Duh! I made a very dumb mistake!!!
Download the new release please.

Nothing is ever easy. Your test script didn't crash. :\

Well, one hunch before I go to bed.
First off I can hopefully isolate this problem from the rest of the program:

import os

path = os.path.join('data','save','times','0')

print 'Directory files: ' + str(os.listdir(path))

in_file = open(os.path.join(path,'0.txt'),'rU')
text = in_file.read()
in_file.close()
print 'File 0.txt: ' + str(text)


Save that in the same directory as main.py and run it. You should get an error again.
Now try opening the file with a word processor. Type in anything and save it. Then run again. If it works now, the problem is probably that Mac has problems with empty files, in which case I will have to do more work and a new release.

I do in fact have that file. I added these three lines in helper.loadText:

next = '/'.join(fullname.split('/')[:-1])
print "---Directory dump---"
print os.listdir(next)

and the output I get right before it crashes is:

---Directory dump---
['0.txt', '1.txt', '10.txt', '11.txt', '12.txt', '13.txt', '14.txt', '15.txt', '2.txt', '3.txt', '4.txt', '5.txt', '6.txt', '7.txt', '8.txt', '9.txt']

So a curious little problem, all told.

Could you check to see if you have the file data/save/times/0/0.txt? I'm pretty sure it's in the ZIP!

Downloaded it, tried to run it (OSX, Python2.5). It didn't do anything after writing "Press the buttons as they appear on the command prompt." I had to figure out that it wanted to use my plugged-in PS2 controller instead of the keyboard, and then blindly guess at what order the buttons should be pressed. Then it crashed:
