Sorry to interject, but you have to export an "EXE" for PC and a "Projector" for MAC and then you can burn those to a CD and both platforms will be able to run from the cd.
I thought you were just talking about having the disk read.

Ian, assuming there is a different executable file for both mac and pc, does
this mean that both would be visible on both platforms?

Will look at the hybrid kit in the meantime.

Thanks

I may have misunderstood Paul's requirements.

Paul - if you want to make all files on the disk visible to both
platforms, just normally burning a disk on Windows or Mac should be
fine (as Karl suggests).

If you want _different_ files to appear to each platform, look at
something like the Hybrid CD kit I suggested.

What are you using to burn your CD if your not using Toast?
Are you on a PC or can you use a MAC?
If your on a MAC using 10 or greater, you can just put in a CD and it
should
ask you what to do.
Choose "Open Finder" (I believe is the option) it will load your cd to the
desktop
and you can open it and load it up with files like a thumbdrive or any
other
device.
Make sure you dont just move your files, make sure their copying. Hold the
option key when moving them to the folder.
When your done copying the files to the "burn folder" (the image of your
CD
on the desktop),
up in the right corner, there should be a "burn cd" button on the edge of
the window.
Click it and sit back.

If you burn your cd this way, MAC automatically sets it to a cross
platform
format (I believe)

Been a long time since I have had to make a cross platform CDROM, or even
a
CDROM at all to be honest. Anyway I have developed a series of
educational
games with Flash CS3, with the main packaged file packaged with MDM Zinc
(to
enable me to have a coloured background outside the stage area).

I would appreciate any advice on the best way to create a cross platform CDROM. Can I create this on the PC or do I need to purchase Toast for the
Mac to do this?

Thanks in advance

Paul
