Hi There.
I am new to GameMaker and have been trying to learn through YouTube videos. I have been finding lots of great ones. Sometimes there is some little setting thing or a very special case that keeps the steps shown from working and I inevitably find myself there.
I have watched 6 videos on how to use the "file_text..." family of commands
Thinking that other parts of my game could be at fault I created a new project
it has one room (room0) I put one object in it and made no other changes from the default
it has one object (SoItBegins) with on event (Game Start) where I put:
txt_Hello = file_text_open_write("Hello.txt");
file_text_write_string(txt_Hello,"Here have some text");
file_text_close(txt_Hello);
A save and Play gets me an empty room the terminal window did not show that a file was created.
I run a windows7 computer
so is there something I missed or is this another case of "My Computer Hates Me"
