Blitz Media Linker

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to use the Blitz-Media Linker to put all my files into a single .exe. I go through the entire wizard, and but when I try to run the .exe, I get "Invalid Stream Handle" and it crashes. I have added every file necessary to run the program, so that is not the issue.

The .exe will run in the folder with all of my media, but nowhere else, which defeats the purpose of packing it.

I'm sure it is something very simple, but I've just cannot figure it out; needless to say I'm extremely frustrated.

Thank you in advance.

You're not packing DLL's or any files you subsequently attempt to write to, are you?

I reading and writing to 2 text files, should those be left unpacked?

I don't have any experience with Blitz Media Linker, but those are the sort of problems I would associate with packing files. I'd certainly try not packing those two files and see if it resolves the problem.

I'll definitely give it a try when I get home thanks for the tip.

UPDATE: Anyone reading this in the future for reference, if you do want to read and write to text files, don't include them in the packing, or you'll get an invalid stream error. Just leave them out of the .exe and everything will work as planned.

If you're working with larger projects and multiple files, try MoleBox if you have time.
