You could install the GC client on a root account but this isn't recommended.

You're better off creating a user account for GameCreate to be installed and run on.

Make sure the file was downloaded properly. Is it listed when you run ls ?

It's also not recommended to use a root account.

This is syntactically ambiguous because of the period, which means your
current dir. If you are not in /, then this command is not going to look in
the /root dir. Don't know how much experience you have with Linux, so
just try this and see if there's any gc-related file in there:
Code:
ls /root

If so, do the same steps but remove the period in "./root"

But as Steve said: Don't run GC as root. Use another regular user account
with non-root privileges. If you don't know how, then you should google and
find a basic Linux introduction text which should tell you how to create user
accounts.

You need make the file executable so it will run first.

So you would need to do something like

chmod -x GameCreate-Setup.linux-x86.run

GameCreate hasn't been internally tested with 64bit linux, but reports suggest that it should work properly with quite a few distros.

with the 64 bit, can you just give us in a zip file the gamecreate file itself instead of the run file?

I've never had a problem with installing GC on 64 bit Linux. Been using Gentoo.

You should make sure you have downloaded the file correctly by verifying the md5sums listed her: http://www.gamecreate.com/downloads.php
