^ what he said, does that thing work by now? Last time I checked it couldn't do sounds, collisions, etc.

Well I've barely tested it really, idk if it's usable yet, I was just making everybody aware.

But at least it looks as if they're making some progress.

GM8 PRO because, well, It's the most advanced. It's not too significant, but it has a few perks(sprite transparency, for example, now has actual transparency instead of "cross hatching" colors.)

Never use attachments, no matter what the circumstance. Why's it there? I don't know.

I use Game Maker 8, but I haven't learned much about code. I'm just trying to figure out most of the d&d commands in code.

I use 7 Pro because 8 has an irritating graphics editor and doesn't work on my Vista computer(Don't know why.) although otherwise I would use 8 for backwards compatibility.

I use Game Maker 8 Pro completely now, since I've gotten it to work with the school computers and not have to constantly re-register it.

[quote="ipuresonic99"]the weird checkerboard background effect when making sprites--I don't get it... :shifty:[/quote] That checkerboard shows when there is no color covering it. Basically, that means that when you paste the sprite on the screen, there will be no color at all there and whatever is behind the sprite will show through.

I have the Registered Version of GM8 but for some reason on my computer I have a problem with loading external functions...WOW.
