I'm trying to install PyMCTranslate using this command: C:/Users/joshu/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python313/python.exe -m pip install PyMCTranslate
This leads to the PyMC error text attached to this post. To find a fix, I went to the r/techsupport Discord, but they were unable to help. Before giving up, they suggested trying this command: pip install numpy==1.25.2 This also gave me a similar error that you can find in numpy error.txt attached to this pointing to some other underlying issue that I don't understand.

uhhh it wont let me upload the error im getting

numpy Error https://paste.pythondiscord.com/AIQA

pymc error https://paste.pythondiscord.com/LAWQ

Yeah, Python 3.13 is a somewhat recent version so some packages still haven't managed to update.

And so it's trying to build them directly rather than install from a wheel. And amulet-nbt needs the Windows SDK to be installed so it can build.

[humble bluff]

and i get the sdk from vs bulid tools right?

[fervent citrus]

Yeah.

[humble bluff]

and then how do i stop it from trying to build them directly rather than install from a wheel

[fervent citrus]

That's on the side of the package author. Either wait for them to create a 3.13 build or use an older version of Python (like 3.12).

[humble bluff]

ok sounds good thanks for the help

last question is their a specfic sdk you reccommd i download

[fervent citrus]

Seems like Windows 10 SDK for Desktop C++ is what you'd want.

(that plus the build tools that you already have)

[humble bluff]

would it matter if im on windiows 11

[fervent citrus]

No, it shouldn't matter.

[humble bluff]

thanks agian

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/FE6Q ive uninstalled py 3.13 and installed 3.12 and installed windiows 10 sdk and it appears im still getting this error

[fervent citrus]

apparently it wants msvc v142 as well (according to this thread which was linked in this issue)

[humble bluff]
