can i send game via e-mail?

Question

is it possible and how do i do it?should i put it in a zip file?other than e-mail what other way can i send a game for free.i need to send it from malaysia to bulgaria not to a friend in the hood so walking isnt an option

Answer 1

You can, but it would have to be a small (less than 10MB) game. I assume its a freeware one, or one you're written?

Some of the alternatives are:

Set up a Secure FTP Server and then use SCP or SFTP. Linux and Mac OS X come with secure FTP servers - just turn it on!

Set up an insecure FTP server.

Set up a webserver and host the file there.

Answer 2

It depends on the size of the game and the attachment size limit of your email provider. Zipping a file will reduce its size, and is a good idea if several files are involved.

If at all possible, it would be best to send the setup file for the game and allow your friend to install it themselves.

Answer 3

Typically you can't do this. You can, however, send the install file if you have it on your computer. If it's a newer game that came on a cd, you can create an ".iso" file by essentially "burning" an image of the cd to your computer's hard drive. Then you can send the image file for your friend to burn to a cd. Then the game can be installed via the cd that your friend has just made. However, most every e-mail client will not allow you send a file this large. You will have to find another program to send this file to your friend with. I suggest skype or AIM.

Answer 4

you can send small games which are within 10MB and u must zip them before attaching, u can also send them through messenger...other option is tat you will get websites which store the data and give a link to you , u can store your games in tat site, it can store even movies so you can store big games too.. one of the sites which i knw is rapidshare.com but i suggest you to chek the net, you may find many more sites which helps you to share files with your friends... u need to zip the file even for this sites..

have a nice day!!

Answer 5

Funny about the walking to the hood.
But anyways you can try many free upload sites and then send the link in an e-mail.
You can try
http://www.uploadit.biz/upload.php
put your file in click upload and then send the link over to bulgaria.
If it is more than 50 mb, you can try to use another site I can't think of any off the top of my mind. anyways if it is larger than 50mb you wont be able to send it in an e-mail.

Answer 6

the first answer might want to both artwork, although your brother ought to favor to apply a "digital Disk stress" alongside with the ISO record (if he can not burn the disk). With the 2d answer, the installation for the game likely is actual not interior the Empire Earth folder because this is already put in on the computer. application each and every so often do have a replica of the installation interior the folder, yet video games are frequently a lot too large to attempt this (it ought to right away burn up your troublesome stress). you could replica the entire Empire Earth folder lower than software files and then positioned it in a .rar record or .zip and deliver it to him. the issue with it truly is that it gained't replica the registry techniques, so in case you deliver him this methodology files his pc ought to assert that it desires the disk serial style to run the game. So in case you bypass this methodology files rout, deliver him the serial style revealed on the disk-slip/case and examine for the different codes in large-ish print on the container or ebook; ones that say "S/N: XXXXXXXXXXX" (X=any style).
