I wish I could be more exact and clear about this but there's an error when trying to run a .exe export. Seems to work fine with and without media on a different smaller game so I'm pretty sure it's something I did personally in my bigger game. It runs fine as a .taf or .blorb btw.

The error itself seems normal enough. But if my "object reference" really isn't set to an instance of an object, why would it run fine in as both blorb and taf? |

| Can you send me the taf, blorb and exe please? |

| Hey Campbell, sorry to bother you again. I found the problem! It seems that there were broken graphic-links in my game that I had completely forgotten about. So, while .taf and .blorb are able to bypass non-existent graphics, the .exe file seems to poop it's pants when this problem occurs. So, it's really a low priority problem now I guess but I'm imagining it could cause problems if someone is running tests and won't realize the problem till an .exe is made. |

| While we're on the topic, there's still an error when trying to load an image from an online source, ie: Photoshop, Imgur, etc... |
