If this template helps then use it. If not then just delete and start from scratch.

PsychoPy Version: v2020.1.3

What are you trying to achieve?: I’m building an experiment using pictures with a trial and a test. In the trial phase, there is a trial and feedback loop. I initially got the instructional page to show without giving any conditions/file/parameters to it. Once i’ve included those fields, nothing will show up when i try to run it. In the feedback, I included an “If…Else…” statement for it to play and show a correct bell ding and a tick if the participant got the correct ans in the practice trial. However, it is not able to show anything once I try to run the experiment.

It shows: Warning duplicate files name detected. I am not sure if this will be an issue

it also shows: File “C:\Program Files\PsychoPy3\lib\site-packages\psychopy\sound_base.py”, line 193, in setSound
raise ValueError(msg + value)
ValueError: setSound: could not find a sound file named

Please do offer any advice, tips or solution on how to get this to run. Thanks!

It’s quite hard to tell what’s wrong from this infromation but it looks like it’s trying to set sound from a blank string. What have you set as the value for the ‘sound’ in the dialog box?
