Well, I'm working on a game, but I know one of the most important things is distributing it, so I thought I'd make a small Beta map and unpload it to FileFront. I did the executable and everything worked fine, but whenever someone tried to use the game, they said they had problems. Will someone please try this out and tell me what could be wrong? Thanks a lot.

what problems?

post screenshots.

edit: oh, duh, why did i download it if it was only 15mb, silly me i should have known.

in uploading your game, you have to include ALL the files that the build game makes, you can't just upload the .exe file.

He's right.You need to zip or use some kind of packing program on the whole folder not just the .exe and then upload it.

Okay, I understand what you mean. How would I go to zip up the file, though?

Windows XP natively Supports zip files. Just right mouse your game's folder, then click "send to > Commpresed(zipped) folder"
