I included two examples in SaverExample.zip ( simple example and advanced example )

When I ran saverresource.exe its output was a zero-length file.

Always the same problem... You seems to have a problem with your MinGW installation. Did you set your env variables ?
Env variable system really sux :-/

the little balls raced on the preview screen but when running in normal saver mode they were very slow

- CreateSaver command works like Graphics command ( sync your docs and press F1 to see the command help)
- Unlike Graphics command, some parameters ( hertz, width and height ) are ignored when preview mode is enabled.
- By default, preview mode uses 'nosync' refresh mode and preview window size. That's why it seems to be faster.

If you want a faster fullscreen mode:

CreateSaver$(title$,width=SCR_DESKTOP,height=SCR_DESKTOP,depth=16,NOSYNC,saverflags=SCR_DETECTALL , exitKey=KEY_ESCAPE)
