You need to compile the game engine (standalone version) for the platform you want to generate the game.
The executable must be compressed to the .bin format and put in the bin folder.

You need devKitPro to compile the GP2X engine, not the Windows Mobile engine.

The whole compilation of Game Editor happens in 5 steps:

- Compile the editor (configuration: Professional (GAMEEDITOR_PROFESSIONAL on Linux))
- Compile the Windows engine (configuration: Standalone_Pro, Win32, you must rename the generated executable to gameEditorWindows.exe)
- Compile the Windows Mobile engine (configuration: Standalone_Pro, 'Pocket PC 2003 (ARMV4)', file gameEditorPocket.exe)
- Compile the GP2X engine (configuration: Standalone_Pro, 'Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC SDK (ARMV4I)', file gameEditorPocket.exe.gpe - you need the devKitPro here!)
- Compile Linux engine (configuration:GAMEEDITOR_PROFESSIONAL_STAND_ALONE, file gameEditorLinux)
