#2 Attribute error at race start

[Steven Farlie]

I started the game with:

python pyRacerz.py --nosound

And I pretty much just went through the menus to start
a race, but the game crashed with this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "pyRacerz.py", line 252, in ?

"")), self.level, self.keyAccel, self.keyBrake,

Running python2.4 with pygame-1.6-2ubuntu1 (I'm running
on ubuntu)

Hi,

The problem comes from the version of your pygame.
I thought 1.6.2 was right but it seems not.
Upgrade to the last version (1.7), it should resolve the
problem... (but I don't know if the package is available on
Ubuntu repositories...)

Bye

Same here, with python Version: 2.4.2-0ubuntu2 and pygame
Version: 1.6-2ubuntu2
Sound works well here, so I started the game with python
pyRacerz.py

The problem comes from your pygame version.

Please upgrade to the 1.7 version. It should resolve the
problem.

If it doesn't help, contact me...

See you,

Just a minor comment, the latest version of Ubuntu released
with 1.6.2, so an upgrade to 1.7 is not going to happen now.

Hmmm... don't really feel like a manual upgrade just to play
a little game. I'll probably try again with GP2X (if I can
get ahold of one).
