"RGSS Player has stopped working" is the exact error.  I've seen this error reported often.

Get him to open the Game.ini file and check what DLL it's referring to.  Then get him to check that he's actually GOT that DLL.  If he doesn't, he either needs to change the ini file to use the one he's got, or (probably preferable) get the correct DLL from the Enterbrain site.

If he's on Vista, also get him to right-click on the exe file, and change it to run as administrator, and to run in XP Compatibility mode.

I've seen all of these suggested as a solution to the problem.  Make sure you come back and tell us which one (if any) worked ;)

Ok, so i need to copy all of the RTP stuff into my project folder along with everything else. He doesn't have RPG Maker, I'm just sending him my game to play. now what about the .DLL? sorry I'm not the brightest at things like this.

sorry - forget the RTP stuff.  I was thinking of the dll.

Just check what dll is mentioned in your Game.ini file, and make sure he's got that one installed.  If he doesn't, you should just be able to find it on your system and send it to him (it'll probably be somewhere like c:\Windows\System32\RGSS102E.dll)

Ohh thanks, i was a little comfused on where to look to find the stuff but I got it. So all i need to do is find the correct .DLL and send it to him with the game folder or in the game folder?

no - he'll need to put it in the right place.  If it's in c:\windows\system32 on your system, then that's where he needs to put it.

Note - I don't know for sure that this is going to fix the problem.  It's just one of the suggestions I've often seen made.

Well ok I think I get it, the only problem is that I'll have to do this tomorrow and I can't find the .DLL file I'm looking for which should be RGSS102E.dll its not where you suggested and I searched my computer to find nothing ill look more tomorrow I guess.

look for RGSS* - what does your Game.ini file say?

You might need to tell it to search hidden/system files and folders too.

My .ini file says:
[Game]
Library=RGSS102E.dll
Scripts=Data\Scripts.rxdata
Title=Hayden 3
RTP1=Standard
RTP2=
RTP3=

I searched for this: RGSS102E.dll but I might search again in hidden places and system files and what not.

EDIT: Ok so I searched for "RGSS" and I got 7 different .dll's and 2 of them are RGSS102E.dll should i just send both of those?

If one of them is in Windows\system32, send that one, and tell him to put it in the same place.
