What is it about py2exe that changes the directory structure, to move
the .tga files away from the visual directory? Where does it put them
(and why)? In my ignorance of py2exe, this fix of rummaging around in
upper directories seems odd.<br>

materials.py searches for the texture .tga files in its own directory,

My solution to this is the following patch to materials.py, to allow it
to search a few levels up from its own directory for these files:<br>

Now you can use a setup.py like the following for py2exe:<br>
  <br>
---8&lt; code &gt;8---<br>
#py2exe setup script<br>
  <br>
from distutils.core import setup<br>
import py2exe<br>
  <br>
# find visual's files<br>
import os.path as path<br>
from glob import glob<br>
import visual<br>
  <br>
tgas = glob(path.join(path.dirname(visual.__file__), "*.tga"))<br>
  <br>
setup(<br>
    # The first three parameters are not required, if at least a<br>
    # 'version' is given, then a versioninfo resource is built from<br>
    # them and added to the executables.<br>
    version = "1.0.0",<br>
    description = "Example Application",<br>
    name = "Example Application",<br>
  <br>
    # targets to build<br>
    console = ["example.py"],<br>
  <br>
    zipfile = "library.zip",<br>
    options={<br>
        "py2exe":{<br>
            "optimize": 2,<br>
            # Exclude some libraries which are non-essential.<br>
            # These are imported indirectly from numpy.<br>
            "excludes": ["doctest", "pydoc", "urllib2"],<br>
            "compressed": True,<br>
            "bundle_files": 1,<br>
            "ascii": True,<br>
        }<br>
    },<br>
  <br>
    # VPython data files<br>
    data_files=[("",tgas)],<br>
)<br>
---8&lt; /code &gt;8---<br>
  <br>
In the above script, I excluded three libraries (doctest, pydoc,
urllib2) as they were imported from numpy but are not necessary for the
system to function. This decreases the size of the resulting bundle
considerably.<br>
