I am too stupid to start the project.

[ghost]

Hello people,
I think it's wonderful that 3b1b makes its videos available to us in this form as well.
I have a basic problem. I can't render any of the shown videos projects myself. But that is up to me. Now to my problem.
I have cloned the git and installed manim. FMPEG and Latex are also installed and all working. Manim should also work according to my current knowledge, yet I'm doing something wrong.

Example

As an example I would like to use now simply times the video. Here is the YouTube link to it.

What I have done so far

I have the git in its original state and have not made any changes to it. After that I change with cd to the corresponding folder. For the example this would be the folder "_2020".

now i try to compile it with manimgl. As I learned in #10, I should not take the community version but the one from @3b1b itself. Ok. Then I do this

My proposed solutions

In the issue #10 it was recommended to put the python sktipt in the same folder where the import_py is located. i did that and tried to compile it again.
But there the same error occurs as above. What am I doing fundamentally wrong?

My Setup

Enclosed still my version data.

And also the Python version.

Even if I don't know if it helps, I still give technical data about my system

I use Windows 11 with 64 bit and have a WSL2 running Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.

Well. In any case, I hope I have indicated everything correctly and have not embarrassed myself too much. Hopefully you can help me.

With kind regards
Riffecx

I was able to improve manimgl by reinstalling. I copied the chess.py again into the root folder of the project and compiled it again. Now it does not find the manim imports file although it is directly underneath. What am I doing wrong?

First install what it says here manimgl, the project works with the original. Then you have to run the scene you want from the file it is in with manimgl [archivo] [scene]. The classes with the Scene inheritance class, in the file, are the ones you can place in the command. The problem is that at the moment of executing the files by themselves it does not detect the module. You have to include the path in the files. Add sys.path.append('..') to the files so that when the command is executed it recognizes them. I hope I have helped you

Add to the path the file containing the scene to be rendered.

Add to the path the file containing the scene to be rendered.

Mine saying
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '_2019'

[LuisZapataYamo]

Hello, in this case your file is in _2019/diffyq/part5/ so you must include sys.path.append('../../..')

Add to the path the file containing the scene to be rendered.

Mine is still saying this. Am I doing anything wrong?
