Hey every one. I'm new to game development and have been hard at work to bring people a game which has become dear to my heart. But when I go to build the stand alone application it doesn't save as a stand alone application. The save icon only flashes blue and does nothing else. How can I resolve this issue?
Hi TylerProductions1 and welcome to the forums. If you are using the free version you can not build into an .exe.

I am using the full version.
can't see "save" icons flashing when building applications :o
let's check some facts:
- you building with CTF 2.5 (no free, no dev - red icon right?)
- making a wondows.exe app type (check application properties build type)
- you go to file - build - "application" right?
and then what exactly happens?
The save button just flashes a light shade of blue.
You mean that when you click "save" in the "save as a stand-alone application" popup dialogue
the button just gets clicked and nothing happens?
You entered a correct filename (no unsupported special characters in filename)
Running in windows - version?
Reply/confirm to above questions on your ctf version and build type?
Pls provide as much info you can so that users or staff members -if needed- may help you get your exe built
I think it's built now. Because when I took away a ? from the name of the game it saved so I don't know if it was built.
yeah - we got it ;D
I can reproduce this on my side,
"?" is not accepted in file name and my save button does nothing as well
Nice. So I should be able to get it released now.
Can any one give me suggestions on where I can release my game?
We have a WIP / Released Games section further down the forums you could use...
STEAM is another option ( for exe builds ). But there is a one-time relatively hefty fee to be able to uppload games there + the App/ game has to be voted up before its actually available on the store
