Remember to:

Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

You can check if a file exists with 'os.path.exists(...)'

#

And you installed your library, right?

#

It's running playsound.py out of your site packages.

yeah

pastel coyote Jun 28, 2024, 9:31 PM

#

So it's not running relative to your downloads folder. The lens rng folder is unrelated to what you're running

#

(And you're running a diff version than the code you posted)

wait what

The traceback referenced line 55 which didn't correspond to the code you pasted

pastel coyote And you installed your library, right?

thats all of it

To always have a path relative to current file's location, as opposed to current working directory, use __file__

Using pathlib you can easily get code file's directory from it:

from pathlib import Path

code_directory = Path(__file__).parent.resolve()

roll_path = code_directory / "audio/roll tick.mp3"

ok ty

lunar bay Jun 28, 2024, 10:19 PM

#

Os.path.join(sys.path[0], filename) if it is in the same folder

#

Thats what i always used
