gamemaker 1.4

I received this code error message after watching tutorials my college issued to me. I did take "calarvae_attack();" out and the game loaded however my enemies do not perform the attack animation as they are suppose to. How can I make the enemies attack the player back when approaching...

Hello devs, I am creating a "board" game where you can encounter different events such as "open a treasure", "hunt event","shop" and of course "battle" While the board is always on the screen (let's say it's drawed on the draw event), the current event is displayed in draw gui event, Event...

Hello. For some reason, I can't download GMS 1.4 anymore. I have a GMS 2 license, and I was able to download 1.4 previously, but I'm suddenly unable to find any download button or link. Is it because I'm trying to download it on a Mac?

I tried testing my game on v1.4999 yesterday and at first it would load and read path.file too long/compile error. Later my game took forever (1 hour) to load but as soon as it began compiling it just stopped. Can someone help me fix this? I’ve been working on my game for way too long for it to...

How do I program it like that -> if the player jumps from above onto an object -> it deletes itself (the object)? And how can I program it like that: if the player jumps from left or right, the player himself deletes himself? (I know and already have the jump code, I just need the other thingies)

Okay so, whenever I walk into a wall (Going right) I end up going too far in and I think that's why I can't walk down or up unless I walk left and un-stick myself. I feel like this is an easy fix but no matter how many things I try I can't seem to figure it out. Solid: Chara (The parts that I...

This has just started happening recently, and has been making me really annoyed. Basically, whenever I attempt to start GameMaker Studio 1.4, it closes as soon as the UI loads. No error messages or notifications pop up. This also happens regardless of however I launch the program. How can I fix...

Hello, I am working on a multiplayer game in GameMaker. The concept is close to a fighting game and so it's very important both players see the same thing happening at the exact same time. It takes a while for a buffer to be sent to the other player though. A lot of fighting games fix this by...

So I’m making a top down game. Right now the player is just a cube, (there’s the invisible cube for the actual player input, and another visible cube drawn on top of it for the animation so it can spin) and the front of the cube spins around and looks wherever the mouse is. I’m going to be...

I have been having problems with my view. I have my game view set to 640x360(which is a 16:9 aspect ratio, so I'm pretty sure its not because its trying to deal with the resizing), but I always get these disfigured sprites. they look as if it were to stretch a pixel 1 and a half times. im not...
