Legacy GM How do I check my license?

Q

So, I bought a HumbleBundle today and a GameMaker pro license was included.

I've used GameMaker in the past and learned a bit of GML, I decided I'd try this out again.

I've got the license on my account, but I'm not sure if I've got it on the program. How do I check?

What does the bar at the top say? If it says Professional then your copy of GM:S has been activated. Or alternatively go to Help >> About GameMaker: Studio and it should provide you all the information concerning your copy of GM:S.

Either way, if your copy hasn't been activated, you can go to Help >> Update License and put your license key there; and your copy should get activated. You might want to restart the IDE as well, so as to make sure that new functions are added properly.

Oh wow, I totally overlooked that. It says Professional Edition, thanks!
