Hi there :D

I'm getting an error each time I open a new window of GameMaker. It happens instantly when I open it and it's very persistent. I've reinstalled the game. Cleaned up every Rss file in
%localappdata%\GameMaker-Studio and refreshed the demo and tutorial screen. Still, this guy happens three times, each time:




It's probably because of these guys:



But there is no getting rid of them. Not after reinstalling GM:S or cleaning up the %localappdata%\GameMaker-Studio



If I press the
button in the demo screen, it gives the same 'Invalid XML in RSS file' error again for three times.

Any clue?

some of the yoyo web addresses are being blocked or not decoded, by your computer, your firewall, you network security sw, your network router or your isp.

For me it was my isp failing to find news.yoyogames.com and other similar named addresses. I had to change the DNS provider to use googles'

I've checked my firewall and it seems fine. I'm quite confident that it has to be a malfunction with 'xygthop3's gms shader demos' although I'm not sure how to go about it.

I'll keep trying but the golden idea is overly welcome xD

I'm still experiencing this error. I looked into more of the %localappdata%\GameMaker-Studio and submitted a bug report. I hope I can solve this soon.

The reason could be because I've turned off the website that was hosting the RSS feed.
Hah. Too bad. I order you to restore your feed so my error message goes away.

Or any help removing the feed from GameMaker would be great!

Oh, so that's why I was getting all those errors! Thank you for doing that research, @Rukola ;)
The only way I could find to delete a feed, was by fiddling with the registry (which is rather ridiculous). In HKEY_CURRENT_USER/SOFTWARE/GMStudio/Version 1.0/Preferences there are a number of keys called DemoFeedNamesX and DemoFeedsX. Deleting the Xygthop ones seems to fix the error.

God, I would never have found that xD It solved the error messages, so thanks!
