No GIF export

[Marlick]

Hi,
the code works good for me I have installed all the requirements and Gifski is installed but when I command "make all" everything works normal but in output there is no GIF file and also there is no error

I'm using windows: 11
node.js: v16.14.2
Python: 3.12.1
Pillow: v10.1.0
Gifsky: v1.13.0

Hi @Marlick and @jalagar !

i have the same issue as you Marlick! but later i found out that there is some code that miss in position, you have to open build.py in step3_generative_sheet_to_output and look out at line 183. after that, you can copy and paste this one at line 183 - 196 (change the previous) and i think it will works for you too:

def generate_gif_gifski( output_directory, temp_img_folder, gif_name, gif_width, gif_height, kwargs ): subprocess.run( f"gifski -o {os.path.join(output_directory, gif_name)} " f"-r={fps} " f"-Q={quality} " f"-W={gif_width} " f"-H={gif_height} " f"--repeat={0 if loop_gif else -1} " f"{temp_img_folder}/*.png ", shell=True, **kwargs, )

I try to change the line 183 - 196 code to your provided code and it still doesn't work. Any direction I can do to find the debug log?

you can add --debug after the command

PS C:\Users\SkyYap\Documents\GitHub\animated-art-engine> make all --debug

Same issue, any solution?

Same issue, any solution?

still facing the same issue.

[celsosa]

same problem here

Edit: The problem was with Gifski. Chocolatey wasn't installing it correctly, so I installed it manually and added the path to the environment variables manually as well.
