I have been trying to learn Panda3D through making a game through this Tutorial: https://arsthaumaturgis.github.io/Panda3DTutorial.io/

I have managed to complete Lessons 1-15, and the game works fine through a command prompt; however, when I use bdist_apps to make it a distributable, the game crashes every time that I try to load it. When I go to the log, it gives me this error message:

Known pipe types: wglGraphicsPipe (all display modules loaded.)

:loader(error): Couldn't load file PandaSampleModels-master/PandaSampleModels- master/Environment/environment.egg: not found on model path (currently: "/c/Users/hihos/Documents/Toontown Modding Project/Panda3D-1.10.9-x64/Projects/build/win_amd64;/..;/../models")

Traceback (most recent call last): File "main", line 415, in File "main", line 28, in init File "direct.showbase.Loader", line 298, in loadModel OSError: Could not load model file(s): ['PandaSampleModels-master/PandaSampleModels-master/Environment/environment']

I am not very experienced in coding period, so I am not exactly sure how to fix a problem like this. I have tried to add the folder of the models and sounds to the requirements.txt file; however, it would not allow for me to build the product. I don't know if the models, images, and sound files are already included in the .exe file of the game or if I need to add them through some other means.

Here is how my File Paths are like:

-Projects (Carries all of the main files for the game: Game.py, GameObject.py, requirements.txt, and setup.py)

-p3d_samples-master (Contains the character model used in the game.)

-PandaSampleModels-master (Contains the UI, environment, and enemies.)

-Sounds_&_Music (Contains the Sound Effects and Music.)

All of these are within my Panda3D-1.10.9-x64 folder. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The setuptools package, with the bdist_apps option will just create an .exe file for python executable sources. The rest of paths should be placed on relative paths to the executable file and should be also distributed within a package.

If you want to create just a single executable, you should try a different package creator, like pyinstaller. But should be noted that you will need to modify some of your code. Check out another response How to compile all resources into one executable file?
