Can you use intallers for dbc standalone .exe files. I always liked installations because they seem more professional. Also I like how installers always allow you to choose the destination of a program so you dont have to go searching for it later. Just wondering if there are any installers for dbc. Also does any1 know of a free installer? Thanks

installers aren't just for DB or just for C programs etc, they're just programs that bundle all your files together, then extract them to the appropriate directories when the installer is run.

search google for "Free Installer" and you'll get plenty of results...

Hope I Helped...

Here's a DBC game that uses an installer.

The page credits the installer if you want to use it.
