    Legacy GM [SOLVED] DLL: LoadLibraryA failed with code 126

    I started meddling with DLL files recently as I need them in my project. I followed a couple tutorials, but this error keeps popping up, and I have no idea why. Here's a screen of the GML code I'm using for testing: This is pretty much the way it was done in all the tutorials. I have read in...

    Alpha MAEngine - Community 3D Engine

    MAEngine has been under development for two years now, as a closed community project; headed by me, TickleForce (Venomous on the old GMC forums), and Falki147. Due to time limitations (I'm getting married now, and I think the others have left for other game development tools and school), I'm...

    Windows Return HWND? (C++)

    Is it possible with casting or some other method to return an HWND in a GameMaker DLL function? For example, a WinAPI FindWindow() function wrapper. It would be pretty useless if it couldn't return anything readable by GM. For example... C++: HWND window_find(char *class_name,char...

    [SOLVED]C++ Win32 help GM Extension

    I'm looking to get some help from some of the more advanced members on the forums. Just to start off, I know that this isn't exactly a GML question. It's actually a question regarding Win32 and the function DragQueryFile. I was given the green-light to post this here from Nocturne since the...

    Legacy GM c++

    what if I code some function in c++ and have game maker read its output, will it be faster than just coding it in gamemaker? (example, a while loop checking for a value in a 100x100 array) after all, isn't game maker slow, and c++ really fast?

    GameMaker C++ Extensions Header?

    I've been writing some C++ based DLLs and noticed in other forum posts / documentation online that there's a "RunnerJNILib" for the Android version which has some useful functions - like the ability to create a DSMap from the plugin. Is there a header file for a similar set of functions to be...

    GML to GLSL compiler?

    I found a C++ to GLSL (shader language) compiler. I have no idea how well it works or if it works at all... Anyways you can compile GML to C++. This tool claims to compile C++ to GLSL. So could you in theory make GML run as a shader? It would probably be so slow that even a simple pass through...

    Question - IDE C++?

    When installing GMS2, I noticed it also came with a Visual Studio C++ package of some sort. Does this mean we can now use C++ along with/instead of GML? I didn't have a lot of time to mess around with it last night so I couldn't look into it much.

    Windows URI Schemes in GameMaker (C++)

    Hi all I'm trying to develop a simple DLL that lets you create a URI scheme for your game. I started working on this because GameMaker currently lacks an easy way to get data from a website into a game, but with URI scheme support that would become a lot easier. However, I'm pretty new to C++...
