FPS Creator itself cannot be redistributed without purchasing another copy. But, a game made with FPSC can be compiled into an .exe and be distributed however you'd like.

Click File, Build Game. Read everything and make sure the settings are how you want them. Be sure to remember where your built game will be saved. It is usually in:

\The Game Creators\FPS Creator\My Games

^^ Or something like that, im not on my main computer so i can't tell... But then all you have to do is copy the built game's folder, and give it to your friends, or other people...

Am I the only one who knows that a CPU is not a computer but a processor?

@Lewis, No, but I don't think the misuse of the word really related to his question.

It does if it means that people get the wrong idea and think he's trying to distribute games on processors. The whole question itself is wrong if you dont write it the right way.

OK, I tried making an installer (with WinRar) and installing on my brother's computer. The game did not run.

I think we all know what he meant, and we really don't need to correct him.

To do that would be ignorant. How is someone meant to learn if people just ignore it? You dont see teachers in school ignoring a childs mistake, do you?

Sure, we CAN ignore it, but how are people meant to learn if noone mentions it? Lazy forum users not being bothered to bring it up if you ask me.

Depends if they've got tenure or not

But, in all seriousness, this is different than school. He very well could have known, and it was a typo.
But, we should put this disagreement to rest, no? No point in arguing over something so minor.

If you didnt want a disagreement, then you shouldnt have commented.

I'm with Lewis.

Also, shouldn't this be in FPSC chat?

Agreed with above two comments

And to answer his question... Yes, there would really be no point making games with FPSC if you cant distribute them.

Cheers,
