How to install MINGW & SaverMax2D :
---------------------------------------
1. Install Bmax 1.10 or higher
2. Install minGW
Add 'c:/mingw/bin' to your PATH env variable
Add 'c:/mingw' to your MINGW env variable
3. Extract 'winsaver.mod' to your 'mod/pub' directory.
4. sync your docs
5. When you finished setting, you must restart your Bmax IDE.

How to create a fully functionnal saver :
------------------------------------------
' optional part
1. Place a 'bbicon.ico' file in your project directory.
2. Place a 'bbstring.txt' file in your project directory.
3. Start Saver_Resource.exe
-> create bbresource.o

' main part
4. Compile your project: saver.scr.bmx
-> create saver.scr.exe
5. Start Saver_Converter.exe
-> create saver.scr

' Test your saver
6. Right-click on your SCR file and select INSTALL

I had to set environment vars as follows to get it working:

add to path only: c:\mingw; c:\mingw\bin

saver_converter doesn't appear to do anything

If you are lazy coder, saver_converter rename files: saver.scr.exe -> saver.scr
If not, you can code your own file tool. :)

I made this tool because BMK cannot export SCR file. I hope this feature will be added in BMK compiler

Very good job ed :)

Can You update this to make it work with bmx 1.14 please?

Mac and Linix versions???????????
