Okay, I was going through the tutorial and I got to the part where you load the start screen. It said to launch the game, so I launched it and a dialog box came up saying "Execution failed. Event 'StartGame.cet' can't be found. This event is the first thing executed by your game and must either open a splash screen or start a new game right away with an engine call."

So I used the finder to search for StarGame.cet and found it in other failed attempts at games in Events - Defs where it is supposed to be. I opened Events - Defs in the current game and it just wasn't there. I installed this thing directly off the disk only a few minutes ago and I'm using the OS X version if that means anything. Why is it missing and what can I do?

Just make one;-) You can use the (!) button to do so.

A .cet is a script, the startgame.cet is the event the engine looks for when it executes the very first time.

A startup.cet usually contains the following:

User control > mouse and keyboard
Teleport > to a location of type main that contains links to the first map and so on.

And yes, the game tutorial forgets to mention that you have to make one.

Oh, thanks dude. I thought my game-creating career was over (well if I had one that is). Kinda scared me.
