OpenAI Gym Atari on Windows

by

A while ago I have created a fork with Windows support (devs of original repository do not merge or even comment PRs and issues). It does not require neither MSYS/Cygwin nor CMake or Zlib.

To simply install atari-py wheels (binaries) use this command:

pip install -f https://github.com/Kojoley/atari-py/releases atari_py

If you have any distutils supported compiler you can install from sources:

pip install git+https://github.com/Kojoley/atari-py.git

Test your installation with a simple example:

import gym
env = gym.make('SpaceInvaders-v0')
env.reset()
for _ in range(1000):
    env.step(env.action_space.sample())
    env.render('human')
env.close()  # https://github.com/openai/gym/issues/893

If your got a ‘scrambled’ output that’s most likely because your gym is outdated.
