User-Made Creations / I wanna stop the MELTDOWN
« on: March 29, 2015, 02:16:30 PM »
I decided to make a third game and here it is.



Download: https://www.mediafire.com/download/ptfcf8r4lsrj7pt/I+wanna+stop+the+MELTDOWN.zip

This game includes multiple stages with bosses and needling, all with original tilesets and artwork.

I worked really hard on this game and I hope you all enjoy it :)

Here are a few screenshots of the beginning portion of the game:

Gameplay & Discussion / How to force fangames to allow F4 fullscreen mode
« on: February 19, 2015, 11:41:22 PM »
download this https://www.mediafire.com/download/t9pqtp678kzj8b5/Fullscreen.exe then run it.   

once that's complete you can just press F4 as normal to enter fullscreen mode. This will work with all fangames and all other programs, so if you don't want to use it anymore right-click the "H" icon in your system tray menu and pause or quit the script.

also just in case you hate fullscreen, but want a bigger window you can use this https://www.digitallis.co.uk/pc/downloads/ResizeEnable.zip which will force all fangames to allow resizing.

Gameplay & Discussion / How to prevent fangames from crashing on Windows 8
« on: February 09, 2015, 04:03:05 AM »
I was just trying to edit around k2 a little to make it work on windows 8 and accidentally stumbled upon a fix for (at least i think) all fangames that crash on windows 8.

Here's how to do it:

Step 1: download this file and save it anywhere https://www.mediafire.com/download/2hytbp9b2450ta4/dmsynth.dll

Step 2: go to C:\Windows\SysWOW64 , find this file, and click properties
(click to show/hide)

Step 3: Click advanced on the security tab
(click to show/hide)

Step 4: Click change owner(yours will have a different owner than mine)
(click to show/hide)

Step 5: Click advanced
(click to show/hide)

Step 6: Click Find Now
(click to show/hide)

Step 7: Scroll down to find "Administrators" (the one my mouse is on) highlight it then click OK
(click to show/hide)

Step 8: Click OK
(click to show/hide)

Step 9: Click Apply then click OK
(click to show/hide)

Step 10: Click on Administrators then click Edit...
(click to show/hide)

Step 11: Make sure you are still on Administrators then click Full Control (this should auto check all boxes)
(click to show/hide)

Step 12: Very Important Create a backup folder and copy your current "dmsynth.dll" into it
(click to show/hide)

Step 13: Copy the downloaded dmsynth.dll into C:\Windows\SysWOW64
(click to show/hide)

Step 14: Select "Replace the file in the destination"
(click to show/hide)

Then enjoy playing fangames without worrying about windows 8 versions or crashes :)

I only tested this on the Kamilia 2 Guy boss fight and some save in I wanna be the favorite difficulty, so please feel free to tell me about any issues. I've now thoroughly tested tons of games with no crashes.

Edit: some users are reporting that after a recent windows update that games crash again, This is because windows updated the dmsynth.sll file.  If this happened to you then just redoing the above guide will fix it once again.

Game Design / A request to everyone making fangames, please use touch z + shoot saves
« on: January 16, 2015, 04:27:23 AM »
The best save is one that you can stand on and press "Z" to save or shoot like this:


I don't think there is any reason every game shouldn't use this along with bullet blockers.  It has all the good parts of both "s-saves" and shoot saves and when you want the player to only be able to save really close then just put bullet blockers around this and it turns into a "s-save", but "s" is replaced by the shoot key.

Here's the code for one:

Create:
Code: [Select]
image_speed=0;
saveTimer = -1;
Step:
Code: [Select]
saveTimer -= 1;

End Step:
Code: [Select]
if place_meeting(x,y,bullet){
  //sound_play(saveSound); //optional
if(saveTimer < 0 && instance_exists(player) == true){
  saveTimer = 30;
  image_index = 1;
  image_speed = 0.017;
  saveGame();
}}

//if you don't have global controls then switch the second part to to keyboard_check(ord("Z"))

if place_meeting(x,y,player) and keyboard_check_pressed(global.button4){
 // sound_play(saveSound); //optional
if(saveTimer < 0 && instance_exists(player) == true){
  saveTimer = 30;
  image_index = 1;
  image_speed = 0.017;
  saveGame();
 
}}
Animation End:
Code: [Select]
image_speed=0;
image_index=0;

Then for bullet blockers just make a 32x32 px object and set in the bullet object an on collide event that just destroys the bullet.

User-Made Creations / I wanna be Minimal (second game)
« on: August 26, 2014, 03:59:07 PM »


I wanna be Minimal is a short needle/spike game that I made over the past few days.  I tried to create something with an interesting art style and some fun platforming.  It is fully complete with a couple bosses and 3 stages.

Here is 2 screenshots of the game. (as usual I suggest playing without viewing these to avoid spoilers) :p

Programming Questions / can you add more objects into the gamemaker 'pallet'
« on: August 21, 2014, 09:18:39 PM »


every time I need to switch spike directions or block types I need to right click and navigate the right click menu then pick the object I want then I can place it in the room which takes forever.  Is there anyway to store multiple objects in the box and then choose one with a single click?

Tools & Software / enable window re-sizing on any fangame ( tool download )
« on: August 11, 2014, 05:25:16 AM »
Not sure if this is the right board for this (i was about to post in Help, Suggestions & Feedback, but wasn't sure) , but I have a high res monitor so playing fangames in which don't allow window re-sizing is really difficult and straining on my eyes.  Luckily I just stumbled upon this neat little tool that when ran it lets you resize any window.

here is the download link https://www.digitallis.co.uk/pc/downloads.html (its the one called resizeEnable)

hope it works for you, I am on windows 8.1 and it works great for Not Another Needle Game for reference
