Announcements / Re: LateralGM Update
« on: June 05, 2013, 07:41:56 am »@11th Plague, I have no idea what you mean.They are the buttons to click, from the menu bar to the field that is not working in the UI.
11th plague:Thanks, but I've never seen something like that in other IDEs I've used.
The Author field under "API" is the name of the person that wrote the specific system you're trying to use, in case you need to contact them (especially if it's third-party). It's not added to the game or anything.
Also, it looked just like the "author" in the Game Preferences of Game Maker.
Confusing IMHO.

Enigma/Settings/API/Author name cannot be changed.
This is starting to look very nice.
One feature that I'd like to see is refactoring (eg changing the name of a variable everywhere without breaking something).

GMOgre is open source under the LGPL license.

However, "The DirectX renderer requires a version of DirectX 9 dated Nov 2008 or higher."

Last update to the project was on Aug 2012, so maybe there's hope of finding the author on the GMC.

General ENIGMA / Game Maker Studio HTML5 discount
« on: November 25, 2012, 06:18:05 am »
YoYo Games is selling Game Maker Studio at a discount
Studio Pro + HTML5 export module -> 49.99$
I would have never paid 99 bucks for GM Studio alone, but this seems
like a GOOD deal.
The offer started some days ago, ends on 27th November.
I can code in raw HTML5, or I'd better say JavaScript + various API,
but it's even more painful than coding in GML.
I might as well buy 2 of them.

Proposals / Re: Named loops vs numbered breaks
« on: September 26, 2012, 12:02:23 pm »
If you have to do it, use named loops.
It looks like a good companion to goto+label, I think it's a nice fit for a pasta lover.

I'm using Java right now for a school project, and I find it somewhat quirky.
It has and extensive standard library, but that's its main probem when it comes to deprecating stuff in order to innovate.
The more functionalities you add, the more you'll have to support.
As for Enigma, some of us just wanted a quick and (slightly less) dirty GM clone.
Anyway, I know GM sucks because it takes too much effort to build a simple textbox, nevermind a whole GUI.
Than there is another big problem with slowness and the confusion between classes and instances.
But still, sometimes I find myself wanting to go back to that old and simple piece of crap.

I do not mind 50mbs, nor would I mind 500mbs.
SDKs are huge these days. Enigma is going to be an SDK, so I guess 1gb would be acceptable as well.
I download games from Steam, big games that are well over 1gb. Lots of people do.
That said, I don't think supporting all the flaws of GML is the way to go.
Most GM games are developed half way through completion and then dropped, while the completed
ones receive little to no maintenance. They are essentially dead projects. No need for conversion.
If you have such troubles with GML, why not write your own language, it may be even better, hardly worse.
BTW ternary expressions often make code more difficult to read, even for experts

EDIT: With that setting it now works.
This is the piece of code with the synthax error
IMHO there's a logic error too, --alarm0 should be more correct since
Anyway, it doesn't work.
Here's the Enigma output (rightclicking worked only after I closed LGM).

Code: [Select]
//since alarms aren't implemented yet...

Stable. There's a Testing too. What should I select?
I reinstalled from the zip and this time I selected Dev-Trunk for the update (r865).
When I try to run the Catch_the_Clown I get this error (and many more errors in the Enigma shell).
BTW Is there a way to copy all the Enigma output inside a textfile? It doesn't fit a screenshot (or two, or three, it's too damn long).

Every time I said I didn't want to install MinGW, it prompted the OpenAL installation, even though OpenAL was already installed.
I'm sure OpenAL was already installed, I even installed it from Enigma once, but it wanted to install it again the next time I started it.
Also, when I selected Cancel, it said Installation Complete anyway
As I installed MinGW, it stopped asking to install OpenAL. You might want to check it out.
I have another problem now. When I try to Run the Catch_the_Clown.gmk game, LGM says "ENIGMA isn't ready yet".
This is my ENIGMA screen.
