Thanks for that link. I was also wondering how to give people a copy of my game without needing them to have RPG XP installed.

Is it possible to make your game to a .exe file?
And i dont understand that thing with the rtp and stuff... Can anyone help me?

[King Anesis]

Do you mean install file? Or an exe file, like program type file?

[LinkaN]

I mean that install file... and one more question.. Where do you find the RGSS100J.dll file?

[Dwarra?]

thats the rtp...

[Tsunokiette]

I mean that install file... and one more question.. Where do you find the RGSS100J.dll file?

Windows/System32

The rtp is more than one file btw.

The RGSS100J.dll is what is required to run the game. It's what runs the scripts and such in the window.

i didnt know that the RTP is more than one file...
maybe i should stick to making resorces..

guys im really sorry but this is all going through one ear and out the other, what i understood was this;



all i really understood was copy RGS100J.dll (or w/e) into the folder. then i saw something about copying all the graphics data and sound that i used into the folder, but that was already there... and then inside the rpg maker theres an option called distribute to disk, but i click that and all it does is compress everything in my project folder into a ZIP folder...

so could anyone please explain as babyish-ly as you can to me, i would very much appreciate it

anyone?

sry for tripple post but this is now what i understand.

How do i set the RTP to "NONE"?

I read the tutorial, and so far what i understand is this...

1. Copy RGSS100J.dll into the archive your gonna send to ur friend, and tell them to put it in "WINDOWS/System32".
2. Zip up all the resources you used in your project into your Games folder
3. Set the RTP to NONE before you save.

OK my questions are this;

1. How do i set the RTP to NONE (is there like a checkbox in one of the menus?)
2. Do i need to click "Distribute to Disk" button at any point and
3. Say, for example, I want to send "Project 3" to a friend. To get all the resources, do i just copy the "Project 3" Folder (Which contains only the data i used in my game) Or all the files that are available, some of which i haven't used in the game?

If that didnt make sense, please say, and if it did, please help!!

You can set the RTP to none in GAME menu on the toolbar.
