stand alone application

Post by luc » Tue Nov 06, 2007 8:06 pm

I had a trail version of revolution media and couldn't create a true stand alone application. i don't recall if there was a setting for 'stand alone' on the file menu like there is with revolution studio but that doesn't do anything either.


When I click on 'file set application' or whatever its called in revolution studio I make the selection for windows but there is no button or 'ok' to click or anything to show that I made the selection.

Anyway I can't create a stand alone.

Can anyone help?

Hi Luc,

You can't build standalones with Media.

In Studio, you don't need to click any Okay button. Have you actually tried building a standalone?

stand alone

Yes, here's what I have done.

l. Created new stack and built small project with simple script. It runs fine within the program.

2. Go to file, 'application settings' ....make appropriate selections.

3. Save as '.....'

Then what?

If I go to my own desk top and drag the floder with rev stack onto the rev player then I can play my project if I locate the folder in 'my documents".

But of course this is not the way to build and play a true stand alone for someone else to play on their own computer.

Hi Luc,

Don't use Save As but use Save as Standalone Application.

Best,

I save it as 'save as stand alone application".

Where is it? Is it on my desktop? I don't find it.

If it is on my desktop how do I send it to another user on a different computer?

Is everything I need bundled in rev studio?
