But what do I put in the game folder? I know i need to put Cncs232.dll in it, right? but what else! Obviously the game, but in stand-alone format or what? help pleez "Nasty, tricksy Hobbitts!"

Either that or they've used absolute paths so unless I unzipped the game to E:\FredsFunStuff\MyCoolGame\Builded\ExtraStuffs\ it doesnt work AFAIK the only extension that requires an extra DLL to be included is DMC[2]. I'm sure others may require DLLs, such as that Zip object, I forget what it's called, but the DLL it would use is included with Windows so not nescessary. I think we should put a stop here to people using the Picture object in games! It only has practical uses in applications (as far as beginners are concerned) so it should come with a warning Jim: you could create an installer (with MMF create a new project and import your application into it. Then when you click File → Build → Project it installs the DLL for you automatically, and you can include any other external files you want, such as a readme or whatever). Mike "Now I guess we're...

ITS FREAKIN AWESOME What exactly is the picture object? "I have dreamed a dream... But now that dream is gone from me."
