In short, I have no problem making the .wdf file, no problems packing everything, and no files which are missing. Yet for some reason, every time I publish my game, even if I have "compile EXE" selected, no .exe is ever made. Its the strangest problem. I have A7.86 Commercial edition.

That means you will not find a file it`s called exe to start your Game. If your script it`s called main.c The starting Data File have another Name. I called my main Script MyProj. and I must look in the folder of MyProj A7 File to start my Game.I hope you understand what I mean.If your Main Script It`s called main.c and your Game Name is antother Name you must look to tis file of the Game Name of your Game. Wissen ist macht. Nichts wissen macht auch nichts. A7.86

I fought and fought this and it makes no darn sense but... there is always a flippin' work around... Here's what I suggest... Just for grins... Try this... Do a "save as" in wed as "new_name" then revise the name of the wmb file in your code to that same "new_name". Then recompile & run the project to make sure it functions properly. Then re-publish... I hope you get an .exe !!!! Grrrrrrrrr Good luck...
