Hello,
How can I make a screen saver for Windows with Game Editor?
Thank you

I don't think that you can make a screensaver with GE yet, but might be a good idea =D
cool, if makslane added that feature in updates.

Thank you,
I would welcome any event, if in future versions something would be possible.

Wsc24, I tought about having a possibility to load other programs/files with GE but got the answer that Game-Editor was made just for games. (As it's name says)
To move your exported exe into windows screensaver you should find some kind of:
exe -> scr converter.

Just google "exe scr converter" and you will find bunch of expensive programs which can make this. If you are lucky you will find one free one. If so, please report it to me too!

if you rename the extension scr to exe, it still works, meaning that scr is just like a exe, as far as I know, unless maybe it directly checks the header to run it proper.
Altough, I have already tried to rename an exe made with GE and run it as a screen saver.

One of the earliest windows security hacks came from the screen savers. What hackers did was name an exe into scr. Windows didnt examine the internals of the scr to make sure that it wasnt an exe. So it might work.. but you might get a warning from your virus scanner.

First, I thank all who responded.
Simply rename in exe is not.
Requests nice weekend.
