When I run the exe built from Pyinstaller the program exits early with no error code. The code below is being imported to my main runtime right away.

import os
from gtts import gTTS
from playsound import playsound
import pygame

print("Alive")

class InputBox:
    #bunch of code for pygame

print("WhatAboutNow?")

class pygameSTD: 
    #more code for pygame

print("check for life")

class config:
    #Code for other things

then once I run the build, this is all I get in my console output

C:\Users\zacke_000\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\Scripts\dist>mainRunTime
Alive

C:\Users\zacke_000\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\Scripts\dist>

However, if I comment out both of the classes that use pygame, the code runs fine up until I try and use one of the classes I commented out. I have tried to leave just one of the classes running, and both of them halt the program as soon it reaches that point. If you need any more info, I'll be more than happy to share and thanks for any help in getting the build to work as expected.

  • When you comment out a class, then try to use it, it's going to crash your program. From what you've given us, we don't have enough information to help you. What does your `mainRunTime` code look like? It sounds like you're probably importing your classes incorrectly. – Skam Jul 10 '18 at 01:56
  • on the first line in mainRunTime I have 'import rovstd as std' both files are stored in the same folder. rovstd is the code above. Here is the full code to my MainrunTime: https://pastebin.com/1TqhfDYY and the full code to rovstd: https://pastebin.com/qSBtq4DK – Zack Krolikowski Jul 10 '18 at 02:19
  • After much testing I know it has something to do with pygame.font, as when I move it before a print it exits without printing, but when I put it after a print, the print works then it exists. – Zack Krolikowski Jul 10 '18 at 04:39
  • yes it was the font, once I switched it to Arial it ran fine – Zack Krolikowski Jul 10 '18 at 05:01
  • Pygame fonts are always problematic when trying to convert to an exe. I have had success using the script [here](https://www.pygame.org/wiki/Pygame2exe) – Luke Borowy Jul 10 '18 at 14:59
