| How do you post a game that has lots of pictures, sound, and music? |
| ||
| The sourcecode you mean? Or just an executable complete with media? (which you can't do here, you'll have to host it yourself) |
| ||
| You mean like on Blitz Showcase? If you wanted to put it on showcase I would recomend making a folder for sound/music, graphics etc. Then, when declaring things like LoadImage you would have to do this
image=LoadImage("C:\Documents and Settings\Home\Desktop\Kylers Programs\Games\Fun Game\Images)

| I mean post it on the internet. There is 100mb of stuff on it and i dont know ANYTHING about html. Can i still do this? |
| ||
| Ask someone for some server space and use some FTP app to upload your stuff.. |
| ||
| I dont know what that means exactly, (lol) but does it cost money? |
| ||
| If it's serverspace from a good friend, then prolly no.. This is where my knowledge stops btw.. :P |
| ||
| Can't he just do that compressed folder thing people do on this website? |
| ||
| I use zipgenius to make .zip files, they are compressed files that can contain a folder. A way to temp. store it, is using for instance: http://www.yousendit.com/ (and then sending it to a fictional adres) I'm not sure if it is still completely free, it's been a while since I used it. But then again, maybe you can search for 'send big files' in google and find another similair service. |
| ||
| use torrents. It's the easiest way without server experience and its free. |
| ||
| Or use something like http://rapidshare.com or http://megaupload.com/en (both are free). Yes, it is possible to use them for things other than warez and pron - amazing! ;) |
| ||
| I used www.yousendit.com to send a test exe. But it doesn't run it right. click on the link. http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=batch_status&batch_id=QlVocHBLa0RsMHcwTVE9PQ Does anyone know why this happens or what im doing wrong? Or can you not send exe's with this? |
| ||
| I just looked at maker.exe and it's cool... Hold the spacebar it gives some wacky name... Go to the link, click on the download link, click download now. There is a problem, though. It says the filename is name20%maker. I think I know why, but I don't want to go into detail. Just change the name to maker.exe and it should run fine. :-) |
| ||
| Or just go here, click save, and rename the file to "maker.exe" Click ok and you have the program. :-) Hope this helps! |
| ||
| Hey, thanks man! I wouldn't have figred that out. |
| ||
| You're Welcome :-) And sorry for the double-post. |
