"The STR doesn't support the buffer API"

[ElyosOfTheAbyss]

I get this error: C:\layeredFS-master>locate.py workdir\dump.bin Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\layeredFS-master\locate.py", line 102, in save('mountRom', findFunction(code, parseHexStr('0C 00 9D E5 00 10 90 E5 28 10 91 E5 31 FF 2F E1 '))); File "C:\layeredFS-master\locate.py", line 24, in findFunction t = code.find(sig); TypeError: Type str doesn't support the buffer API And this happens to all games

python 3 is not supported, try python 2.7

[ElyosOfTheAbyss]

Ok, But now I have this error

C:\layeredFS-master>locate.py workdir\dump.bin Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\layeredFS-master\locate.py", line 98, in <module> with open(sys.argv[1], 'rb') as f: IndexError: list index out of range

edit the bat file and try again:

python locate.py workdir\dump.bin

[ElyosOfTheAbyss]

That just gave me another error C:\layeredFS-master>python locate.py workdir\dump.bin 'python' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

the python for windows may have not been installed correctly, check the path variable or re-install the python.

[ElyosOfTheAbyss]

Still didn't work. I have 2.7.0 Should it be something abit higher?

[44670]

2.7.0 is ok. maybe you should try another computer...

( Just answering for future people )

Use the explicite path, Like: C:\Python27\python.exe , not just "python", as this references the PATH variable.
