OS (e.g. Win10):
PsychoPy version (e.g. 1.84.2):
Standard Standalone? (y/n) Yes
Hi, I meet a problem in PsychoPy 1.84.2, but not in PsychoPy 1.90.2. the error is following:
OSError: Couldn’t find image ‘zhidaoyu’; check path? (tried: C:\Chenglin_Exps\New Experiment by Builder\zhidaoyu)
I have checked the path, this image is in this path, and this program can run in PsychoPy 1.90.2.
I don’t know why? I hope I can get help from you. Thank you!
See Chapter 3 of the book

All this info, and more, in the book!
Dear Jon,
Thank you so much!
