[solved] Pylink not being recognized
I'm trying to run OpenSesame on Windows 7 x64 with the eyelink Plugin in conjunction with an eyelink eyetracker, but it's not working. Any time I try to run my project I get an error that says "Global name 'pylink' is not defined". However, I can run pylink enabled exampled from python just fine. Am i missing something in the installation? Do I need to add something to the Path or install pylink into OpenSesame itself somehow? Any help would be appreciated.
Environment:
Windows 7 x64
Python 2.7.6 (c:\python27)
Pylink ?? (c:\python\lib\site-packages\pylink)
OpenSesame 2.8.3 (c:\program files (x86)\opensesame)
eyelink_plugin ?? (c:\program files (x86)\opensesame\plugins...)
Thanks

You're using the standalone version, which comes with its own Python environment. This acts completely separate from your Python installation.
To be able to use pylink, you will need to run OpenSesame from source. For more information, please see the page on using EyeLink on the documentation site.
Good luck!
Thanks for the advice. Much appreciated.
No worries! Don't hesitate to post any further questions you might have about the source installation (or anything else that pops up).
