i try to load backgroud.png using pygame.image.load(),but i get nothing.here is my code,please help me ,thanks.
import pygame
pygame.init()
# screen
screen = pygame.display.set_mode((480, 700))
# 1.load_image
bg = pygame.image.load("./images/background.png")
# 2.blit
screen.blit(bg, (0, 0))
# 3.update
pygame.display.update()
while True:
pass
pygame.quit()
here is my sreen:it get nothing
With a game you're making all stuff that needs to be refreshed needs to be in the main game loop, your problem is, is you are drawing the image outside that game loop, meaning it gets drawn once then cleared and never drawn again.
To fix your code this is how you would write it:
import pygame
pygame.init()
# screen
screen = pygame.display.set_mode((480, 700))
# 1.load_image
bg = pygame.image.load("./images/background.png")
while True:
# 2.blit
screen.blit(bg, (0, 0))
# 3.update
pygame.display.update()
pygame.quit()
But notice how the bg=pygame.image... is outside the loop, this is because if it was inside the loop it would create a new instance of that image every time the loop happens.
The main game loop works by looping through all your functions and other stuff and then doing again and again, and again.
A game loop is how fps works, basically it is the measurement of how many times per second that game loop happens.
Make sure whenever you are doing anything in the loop it actually has a place there, for example loading an image doesn't, but updating where the player is on the screen does.
If you want to have a look at a good game loop that can be applied to most game engines this website will help you. But don't look at the most complex one when using pygame as it isn't built for that. Fix Your Timestep!
But your original problem of the image not loading isn't the case, it was loading but you were drawing your image in the wrong way, if you want a basic tutorial on pygame watch these videos: Game Development in Python 3 With PyGame - 1 - Intro
A better system to ease development
import pygame
bg = None
def load_resources():
bg = pygame.image.load("./images/background.png")
# all other resources
def render():
screen.blit(bg, (0,0))
def update():
# all logic updates for example movement of entities.
### start of game
load_resources()
while True:
update()
render()
pygame.display.update()
pygame.quit()
I think you should not write pass inside while loop because of it the output window will stop responding. Also you should write the screen blit and display.update inside while loop and you should write the correct image extension in the path. You can also write the full path of the file like ==> pygame.image.load(r"C:\Users\Desktop\back_ground.jpg")
import pygame
pygame.init()
# screen
screen = pygame.display.set_mode((480, 700))
# 1.load_image
bg = pygame.image.load("back_ground.jpg")
while True:
# 2.blit
screen.blit(bg, (0, 0))
# 3.update
pygame.display.update()
for event in pygame.event.get():
if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
pygame.quit()
quit()

I have a simple Pygame program:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import pygame
from pygame.locals import *
pygame.init()
win = pygame.display.set_mode((400,400))
pygame.display.set_caption("My first game")
But every time I try to run it, I get this:
pygame 2.0.0 (SDL 2.0.12, python 3.8.3)
Hello from the pygame community. https://www.pygame.org/contribute.html
And then nothing happens.
Why I can't run this program?
Your application works well. However, you haven't implemented an application loop:
import pygame
from pygame.locals import *
pygame.init()
win = pygame.display.set_mode((400,400))
pygame.display.set_caption("My first game")
clock = pygame.time.Clock()
run = True
while run:
# handle events
for event in pygame.event.get():
if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
run = False
# update game objects
# [...]
# clear display
win.fill((0, 0, 0))
# draw game objects
# [...]
# update display
pygame.display.flip()
# limit frames per second
clock.tick(60)
pygame.quit()
The typical PyGame application loop has to:
handle the events by calling either pygame.event.pump() or pygame.event.get().
update the game states and positions of objects dependent on the input events and time (respectively frames)
clear the entire display or draw the background
draw the entire scene (blit all the objects)
update the display by calling either pygame.display.update() or pygame.display.flip()
limit frames per second to limit CPU usage with pygame.time.Clock.tick

This is interesting. Computer read your program line by line[python]. When all the line are interpreted, the program closed. To solve this problem you need to add a while loop to make sure the program will continue until you close the program.
import pygame,sys
from pygame.locals import *
pygame.init()
pygame.display.set_caption("My first game")
win = pygame.display.set_mode((400,400))
#game loop keeps the game running until you exit the game.
game_running=True
while game_running:
for event in pygame.event.get():
if event.type==QUIT:
pygame.quit()
sys.exit()
win.fill((0, 250, 154)) #Fill the pygame window with specific color. You can use hex or rgb color
pygame.display.update() #Refresh the pygame window

The image is a playing card. We are using pygame 4.5 community edition and pycharm 2.6.9 because 2.7 does not support pygame (this is a school). Here is the code:
import pygame
pygame.init()
picture=pygame.image.load("cards/S01.png")
pygame.display.set_mode(picture.get_size())
main_surface = pygame.display.get_surface()
main_surface.blit(picture, (0,0))
pygame.display.update()
Why does the window disappear?
Try this:
import pygame
pygame.init()
picture=pygame.image.load("cards/S01.png")
pygame.display.set_mode(picture.get_size())
main_surface = pygame.display.get_surface()
main_surface.blit(picture, (0,0))
while True:
main_surface.blit(picture, (0,0))
pygame.display.update()
pygame.display.update() updates a frame. There are multiple frames per second depending on what what you draw onto the surface.
The problem is, after you update the screen with pygame.display.update(), you do nothing, and your program simply ends. pygame.display.update() does not block.
You need what is usually called a main loop. Here's a simple example with event handling:
import pygame
pygame.init()
picture = pygame.image.load("cards/S01.png")
# display.set_mode already returns the screen surface
screen = pygame.display.set_mode(picture.get_size())
# a simple flag to show if the application is running
# there are other ways to do this, of course
running = True
while running:
# it's important to get all events from the
# event queue; otherwise it may get stuck
for e in pygame.event.get():
# if there's a QUIT event (someone wants to close the window)
# then set the running flag to False so the while loop ends
if e.type == pygame.QUIT:
running = False
# draw stuff
screen.blit(picture, (0,0))
pygame.display.update()
This way, your application does not, only when someone closes the window.
I am doing an assignment with pyGame, a very simple one, we have to load an image in a window, but it does not load! And the IDLE does not show any errors..I tried relative paths to my image (room.png) also absolute paths (C:...\room.png) but nothing. Here is my code.
import pygame, sys #import pygame and system library
from pygame import * #import all pygame sublibs
pygame.init()
screen = display.set_mode((385,384)) #set screen size
display.set_caption("Blit example")
#this one gets the current working directory
background_file_name = "room.png" #import bg
background_surface = pygame.image.load(background_file_name) #use bg
while True:
for e in pygame.event.get():
if e.type==QUIT: #break the loop and quit
pygame.quit()
sys.exit()
break
screen.fill((255,0,255)) #fill the screen with magenta
screen.blit(background_surface, (0,0))
display.update()
Your indentation is messed up.
You only start drawing after the application has ended.
Try putting the drawing code into your main loop.
Since you said in a comment you had no idea about programming, you probably don't know that indenting is important in python. Your while loop is running continuously, waiting for an exit signal. But the display is only performed after that...
while True:
for e in pygame.event.get():
if e.type==QUIT: #break the loop and quit
pygame.quit()
sys.exit()
break
screen.fill((255,0,255)) #fill the screen with magenta
screen.blit(background_surface, (0,0))
display.update()
now the display code is inside the while loop
