All Sourcen (Graphics, Sounds, Fonts) in one EXE?

[Big C.]

Hi,

has PB the possibility to compile all graphic-, sound- and fontfiles of a project in one EXE-File?

If not how can i do that? Has somone some codesnippet?

In PureBasic i can do following...

Code Select Expand


If CatchSound(15, ?FighterThrustSound) = 0
   Error("Sounddateien können nicht geladen werden!")
EndIf
If CatchSound(16, ?FighterShotSound) = 0
   Error("Sounddateien können nicht geladen werden!")
EndIf

DataSection
FighterThrustSound:
 IncludeBinary "sounds\fighter_thrust.wav"
FighterShotSound:
 IncludeBinary "sounds\fighter_shot.wav"
EndDataSection


Greetings Big C.

It's on the feature request list - we'll see if it comes some day.

Right now I only know about Molebox which is a commercial product and can do what you want Molebox.

Hope that helps,
Tommy

Tommy, thanks for your answer, however, I think, that tool is for a hobby programmer like me too expensive ... That would not be profitable for me ...  ;)

When I was today in Internet on the search for an answer to my question, I encountered the (login required) or the newer Version (login required) ... Unfortunately the BBCruncher supports until now only BlitzBasic and PureBasic.

Perhaps somebody has an idea ...

As far as I'm aware, MoleBox is the only one that supports any and all languages. I myself use BlitzMedia Linker and it's great.

MoleBox is indeed way too expensive for the hobby gamer.

However, there is a Blitz datapacker that has it's source code readily available - it's called Terabit DataPak. More info HERE

I don't know if it works on all .EXEs or just Blitz though, but perhaps you could port it to PB?

Ian: do you mean that you use Blitzmedia for PB and it works great, or for some other program and it works great?

I think Ian has a version of BlitzBasic and so he uses Blitz Media Linker for his Blitz-Projects.. Blitz Media Linker supports until now all Blitz-Versions and Purebasic (Play basic is not still unfortunately so known, but the community could work on that  ;)  ). Please look at my upper post.
