Help with Pokered's map editor?

Mateo · 2014-10-13 05:15:08

Hey guys, I'm trying to get the map editor for Pokered working now that it has been updated. I thought I installed everything from cygwin that it needed to run, and I had the xWin server process running, yet this is what happens when I try to launch it:

Mateo@Mateo-VAIO ~/pokered
$ python extras/pokemontools/map_editor.py red
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "extras/pokemontools/map_editor.py", line 841, in <module>
    app = init(config=config, version=args.version)
  File "extras/pokemontools/map_editor.py", line 835, in init
    return main(config=config)
  File "extras/pokemontools/map_editor.py", line 822, in main
    root = Tk()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 1764, in __init__
    self.tk = _tkinter.create(screenName, baseName, className, interactive, wantobjects, useTk, sync, use)
_tkinter.TclError: no display name and no $DISPLAY environment variable

Can anyone tell me what exactly is going wrong here?

EDIT: Also, if the problem is just "Cygwin is crap" I can always set up a linux VM or a dual-boot situation if I need it for this kinda stuff.

Tkinter need a desktop gui. Since Cygwin is command line, it can't display the gui window.

I have something like this problem too on Windows.

  File "build\bdist.win32\egg\PIL\Image.py", line 415, in _getdecoder
    raise IOError("decoder %s not available" % decoder_name)
IOError: decoder zip not available

Welp, time to install Linux on VM...

Update: I got it to launch, but when I try to load a map, the console gives me this:

I'm running into a share of issues as well -

At one point it was suggested that I use pillow (a PIL fork) for some reason I don't remember that apparently made sense at the time. Some time later the pillow people broke the dependencies on the package index (pip) without telling anyone.

On unix, you only need tk/tcl:

sudo apt-get install tk8.5-dev tcl8.5-dev

I don't think it works on Windows at all, even with Cygwin-X. It was a bad idea to claim it could without testing. I don't remember the specifics but I think it was that pillow broke Cygwin compatibility.

I'd like to get rid of pillow asap but in the end there will probably just be a dedicated Windows map editor.

I used to write VB applications, did a couple that read/edited ROMs pretty decently, but that's been ages :/ Otherwise I'd be happy to lend the hand.
Maybe I'll see if one of my old towers has VB 6 yet...old but I know my way around that one.

EDIT: I'm still working on the first cup of coffee BUT: There is a python bit that can take a python program and build an executable out of it. Could someone with all of the needed bits be able to compile it to exe and distribute that??
