Is it possible, when creating a cd for a client to include just the *.exe files and not the *.dir files as well? The problem I am having is this: If I put just the exe files in a directory by themselves to test them, and not the dir files as well, when the first scene is done playing (this first scene will play without the .dir file being present) and gets the command

on exitFrame me
play movie "MS_scene2"
end

I get a pop-up window looking for MS_scene2.dir. What I don't understand is why I can play each individual .exe file individually without the .dir being present but i can't play them as one movie and link them together. I do not want to include the .dir files on the cd itself because it is going to a client.

If anyone knows a way around this or what I am doing wrong your help would be greatly appreciated!

thanks!
 
it is so easy just go to file : create projector and then chose all the movies u want to include so u will have one exe file and no need to the dir files

 
Now why didn't I think of that? thank you so much! :)
