Question regarding EXE filesize?

The cap file for my project is 0.600kb.

When run it, it shows 0.870mb VRAM in caption)

When i convert the cap to an EXE, the file is 6.600 mb.

Is this normal? Iv'e been using Construct for a long time and i should know the answer, but i dont.

Thanks <img src="smileys/smiley5.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Yep.

Remember the exe will have all your resources, an icon, dll's which are basically your plugs, etc.

Are the resources just the games sounds and graphic files ? or is there other things that the game needs include for the exe to run?

I ask this because the game loads the sounds and (some) graphics from external files when it's run, and these a files are tiny.

Each plug you add gets in there as well, take a look at the plugs folder, some of those are pretty big.

Thanks newt...question solved!
