can't get packp3d to work

General Discussion

packp3d app.p3d -d folder
The Panda3D Runtime does not appear to be installed!

Runtime is installed (1.04), Panda is installed (1.8.1). Windows 7.

Try invoking the runtime explicitly, ie.

panda3d.exe path/to/packp3d.app -o app.p3d -d folder
3 
panda3d.exe c:\Program Files (x86)\Panda3D-1.8.1\bin\packp3d.p3d -o
app.p3d -d c:\Users\User\Desktop\folder

Apparently doesn’t support parsing whitespaces? :unamused:

Anyway, I reinstalled Panda in its default location which doesn’t have whitespaces and it didn’t give that error.

Is this a bug that is being worked on, kind of annoying. :frowning:

EDIT:

:AppRunner: Total Panda3D disk space used: 150 MB
:AppRunner: Configured max usage is: 2048 MB
No Python files in root directory.

“main.py” in c:\Users\User\Desktop\folder

You have to either quote the path or escape the space, otherwise it will be recognised as two separate arguments. It’s not a bug in Panda; it’s how every command-line program works.

Try running it from the directory where the Python files are located.

Same.

have you tried to specify the main python file with the -m argument in your case I think it could be
“-m main.py”?
anyway I find your error weird that you are having because it is supposed to default to main.py as -m
