Hello, I'm trying to get the python bindings to work but it seems that they can't locate the actual C++ libs when imported under python. I tried copying the libs into Python26\Lib\site-packages\PySFML\ and Python26\libs\ but it won't find them. I've tried using static libs as well as dynamic ones, and I have also tried to just use the MSVC compiled pysfml 1.5 and sfml 1.5 so I'm not sure what to do now.
Build environment:
Windows 7 64-bit
MinGW32 4.4.0 32-bit (comes with qtcreator 2010.01 release)
Python 2.6.4 (from python.org) 32-bit
Compiled SFML 1.6 using Code:Blocks + the same MinGW32, no errors for both static and dynamic compiles (all 32-bit)
Compiled python bindings:
python setup.py build -cmingw32
python setup.py install
I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here, maybe using python 2.6.4 from python.org isn't compatible with mingw-generated libs? Should I use python 2.5.x? Maybe the tutorial needs to explain what to do after installing pysfml to where to put the external libs.
Thanks for the assistance!

Copying the dynamic libs in Python26\Lib\site-packages\PySFML\ should work. What is the error message ? Did you copy the extlibs (libsndfile-1.dll and openal32.dll) as well ?
