(Also, I had half a mind to title this thread "HELP! Question for Chris" and post it in the advanced technical section after having to go through that quiz to register, and I'm curious: How often does some other smartass come along and do things like that? )

hes when I try to test run...

I'm trying to learn how to use AGS, but the tutorial is obsolete, and I can't run anything without the engine crashing.

Does the "Default Game" template still exist anywhere, or was it just renamed? (I tried Sierra-style and one other for use in the tutorial; both resulted in crashes.)

Trying to run the game with or without going through the first two tutorial lessons results in a very generic crash message wit no useful information. Should the game templates be runnable out of the box, or do I need to do something else to make them work? I just want to get through the tutorial so I can start work on my game, but it's difficult when I've followed all the instructions, yet the game crashes anyway, and I have no idea why.
