Like if i have my game and a folder of its needed files... is there a way in turing to cram the pics and so on into an exe so that when u run it, it moves the files and pics to the c: drive, or do i have to download a special software to do this.

i know i can do the software, but i wanna if possible have a turing apps do this so my program would be basically all turing assembly.

I don't understand you question, but if your asking if when you complie your program, if it stores the images in the .exe, like it does the turing files, your wrong.

You will have to keep the pictures on the correct files of which you compiled your program with.

No, Turing can't do that, you'll have to use an external program.
