How Do I Fix the Segmentation Fault Error at Pygame.init() in Pygame : Fsiblog
I’ve recently started building a small platformer style game in Python using Pygame, inspired by Super Mario or rather, my own take on it called Super Marie Adventure. Everything was going well, a segmentation fault triggered right after calling pygame.init().
This was unexpected. It wasn’t just a normal Python error it was a fatal crash. Here’s how I traced the issue, fixed my code, and added new features to make the game run better and cleaner.
In this video, we walk through:
What a segmentation fault means
Common causes of the error at pygame.init()
Step-by-step troubleshooting tips:
Updating or downgrading Pygame
Disabling SDL audio/video subsystems
Setting environment variables to bypass problematic drivers
Reinstalling dependencies like SDL2, Pygame, and Python itself
Whether you're working on a game, school project, or personal app — this guide will help you get back up and running!
