I have one huge question about compiling.

I go to the build menu, then click on compile when I want to compile a game or something

Well, I think it is compiled but where is it? I thought it was one application in the debug menu of my game file but it gave me an error 6 message

You are not very clear... Did the build fail or succeed? Did you get the error when you were trying to run it?

You just need to copy your media into the debug folder
That should work

It is in the project's Release, or Debug folder, but its an .obj file. Compile...only compiles, it does not link, and so it does not produce an executable program. Try Build, instead.

Its a two step process...compile, and link.

I guess I wasn't clear enough. Sorry.

You are compiling, which does not produce an executable; it produces an object file, or .obj In order to get an executable, you must select Build, from the same menu, 5 items up from Compile...Build [projname].

The executable will be in the Debug folder for a Debug build, and the Release folder in a release build. That is so that they do not overwrite each other.
