The best part is that I didn't use a line of coding! I want to share this with others on the site, (as far as I know, this will be the only GM RPG on the site) but the site won't let me submit it. It says that I need a different filetype (either ZIP, TXT, HTM, or HTML) to go in. Game Maker put my games in gm6 format. What do I do?

If you have Windows XP, it has a functional file extractor built right in, so go to any directory, choose New Compressed Folder, and copy paste the GM6 file into the zip and you should be good to go!

Right click (a menu pops-up) => New => New Zip File/New Compressed Folder => There's your Zip

You like Huey Lewis and The News? Group: Wiki Sysops Posts: 28406 Member No.: 45 Joined: 13-October 03 Status: (0d)	Wait, wait, wait, I'm sorry... What? You don't know how to make a new folder or create a zip on a PC, which is a commonly known thing among even OLD PEOPLE who use computers (it's very difficult for them you know. Being old and all), but you know how to program an entire battle system on Game Maker? --------------------
