NOTES: INSTALLING 3D GAMESTUDIO SOFTWARE – CD

INSTALLER PROCESS

Please find on this CD your personalized "key" file KEY.EXE for 3D GameStudio. It is a self-extracting archive that contains your personalized 3D engine and your passwords. You'll need it for installing your 3D GameStudio edition, as well as for future updates. Be sure to back up your key.exe file to a safe and permanent storage media, e.g. a CDR.

If you’ve received a Gamestudio CD installer, rather than ordered a downloadable product, then launch the Gamestudio installer and direct it to install to a directory you’ve created in your programs folder, called C:\Program Files\Gstudio6 .

If you ordered the downloadable product, the 30 day trial version DEMO software is also a Gamestudio installer. Install either the downloaded free DEMO, or the installer found on the shipped Gamestudio CD, to your C:\Program Files\Gstudio6 directory.

A publish-disabled DEMO version of Gamestudio will be installed to that directory. Now locate the KEY file on the secondary CD that was shipped to you. ( If you ordered the software for direct download delivery, you will have received an email with a URL from which to download this same key). If you find this key in zipped format, then be sure to UNZIP IT at this point. You should then have a file named KEY.EXE, which is an executable file.

Launch the KEY.EXE, and point it to the 30 day trial version DEMO Gamestudio directory, where you’ve just installed. The key file will unpack various components into that installed DEMO, unlocking it into full version software that’s been personalized to your name.

You should then find a small text file in your installed software folder named PASSWORD.TXT which contains your personalized username and password. You'll need this username and password to download free updates and resources, and the essential 6.40 updater.

If you own the Commercial or Professional edition software, you’ll have tech support included in your license terms. If so, please copy paste the PASSWORD.TXT contents to the top of ALL technical support emails you send in. Tech support cannot reply without receipt of that data at the top of all support emails. Technical support is not available for Standard or Extra edition software.

Please then proceed to download and install the Gamestudio 6.40.5 updater. Remember to back this file up to an archive along with the DEMO installer and your KEY.EXE to ensure you can fully re-install Gamestudio A6 in future.

Download the 6.40.5 updater here:



Do not give away your user name and password, and do not use them for registering on the forum! If your password is misused, your Gamestudio license will be void. You won't be able to download updates or publish games then.

If you have never worked before with 3D GameStudio, go to the Gamestudio DOWNLOADS Page first, and download the latest version of the various tutorials in the TRIAL VERSION AND DOCUMENTATION section.
