After having finished my first real Pocket PC game, I am now ready to make installation files etc. this has however proven to be a bit more difficult than I expected. I found this EZsetup tool, but how do I make the .inf and .cab files that EZsetup needs????

Anyone got a tutorial on this subject??????

I greatly appreciate all help.

Hi Thomas

There are a few discussions on this board covering EZSetup going into some of the issues people have found. Just do a search on EZSetup

I wrote a tutorial which will be of use. It's on my website ( www.sundialsoft.co.uk ) :-

note: my tutorial is written for the earlier version but all the stuff about the inf file etc is still current.

If it's your first game you also need to check out dicussions on the best places to upload & publish. Currently Handango seems to be the biggest online store site but there are lots of places like download.com & zdnet where you can also upload your game assuming you have a demo.
