Hi Thomas,
I don't know if it's quite the same, but when the most recent version of entombed was released there was an issue with the installer where by it downloaded the SQL, but then the user needed to go in and manually install the file. There were from memory absolutely loads of people that couldn't get entombed to work when this new installer came out and the mailing list was full of people trying to get the game to run. the issue still comes up from time to time on the mailing list from new players who can't get it to run. Although that being said I don't hink that there is a read me document that explains how to do it anywhere in the installer either which might be more of the reason that people couldn't get it to work. Hope that helps Paul but then you that) -----Original Message----- From: Gamers [mailto:gamers-boun...@audyssey.org] On Behalf Of Thomas Ward Sent: 10 June 2013 15:57 To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Thoughts About Game Installations Hi Trouble, That's precisely my concern. Newbies are, well, newbies and they are bound to make newbie mistakes that may cause problems running my games. I could easily see someone writing me saying they got such and such an error running my games, I ask them if they installed SDL, and they say no because they didn't know how to. Things like this can easily be resolved by a installer using Inno Setup etc. The only thing is if I do all that then I'm going to have to add platform specific environment variables to save games etc because each and every platform is different. I didn't want to deal with all that BS, but you are probably right it would be worth doing after the game is out of beta stage.
