RealityFactory.exe itself is executable. No need to compile a new exe or anything, just rename RealityFactory.exe and change the icon and you got yourself an executable for your game. :)

Wow, this is harder than I thought. Wouldn't you have to reinstall it everytime you wanted to make a new game?

Yap, but it has to be admitted that making a game with RF takes definately more than a few hours... Developing a full game may take years! There are two ( :!: ) actual full games with RF that I'm aware of, so it's not really that big deal to reinstall it every time. :)

Should I really start making a game with this? I used Game Maker, but I wanted to go further. How do you change the look of the menu?

Well I made one of them :D :D Its really rubbish tho... well its a bit of fun but i WAS still learning. (I should say WE or allen5924 will be [blank])

Its free for download if you want it, :? you can get it from the official site http://www.sotd.co.nr

I THINK that the other game is availiable in the download section, although i am not sure, and I wasnt actually aware of anoter game... Some one please tell me what it is and where i can get it cause i wanna play it now :D

Oh and welcome to the forum Razorex :D If your not experienced with programming but your interested in making games, and you want to go a step further than those "game maker" and the like things, well THIS IS THE PLACE FOR YOU!

When i started with RF i had NO prior experience (well some VERY basic 2D stuff in a free app called Game Maker 6) but with some practice tutes and percecerence Im now happily developing my second game for the upcoming RF2 (well im making it in RF to later port to the more powerful GFX engien)

So good luck wiht your game dev, and I hope you learn to love RF... (wow I sound like one of them preechy church people, well soz but hey RF is the Shizz! :P )
