How exactly do I compile my game so it has all the sounds and everything in one file? I just press "Save Game", and the exe file appears in the compiled folder and everything looks good. But when I transfer the exe file to another folder without the sound files with it, none of the sounds work. Am I doing something wrong, or what?

Make sure you put your sound files in the game folder, NOT the Compiled folder. Then, when you save the game, they will be built into the exe file.

Hey, that worked! All the music works! :) But now I have another problem: The AVI file that I had as an intro doesn't work now. It just says "Video playing error:File not found or Format not Supported: INTRO.AVI". Do AVI files have to be with it or something?

The avi file need to be distributed separately with the exe, as intro.avi in the same folder as the exe is, as AVI's are not compiled into the exe.
I used to make games but then I took an IRC in the knee.

Ok thanks! ;D In that case, my game is done! It will be on my website shortly, along with my others if anyone wants to see it. Just login to our site using the following info:

Just click on the "Downloads" button. It may not be on for a few hours after I post this, just for some final testing and such. Please notify me of any typographical errors , glitches, etc...
