With Game Maker 8 recently released, we could move gg2 over to it. I have built the gg2 exe in gm8 so we can test it out.
Please download it and give it a try. Do any new bugs come up? Do you get any new errors? Is it faster? Is it worth making the switch to gm8?
This is the current version, 2.1.4. 3 scripts were changed because there were changes to GM functions.
CustomMapProcessLevelData
Changed From
global.CustomMapCollisionSprite = sprite_create_from_surface(walkmaskSurface, 0, 0, surface_get_width(walkmaskSurface), surface_get_height(walkmaskSurface), true, true, false, true, 0, 0);
To
global.CustomMapCollisionSprite = sprite_create_from_surface(walkmaskSurface, 0, 0, surface_get_width(walkmaskSurface), surface_get_height(walkmaskSurface), true, true, 0, 0);
CustomMapInit
Changed From
background_replace(CustomMapB, argument0, false, false, false);
To
background_replace(CustomMapB, argument0, false, false);
Alarm Event for alarm 1
for object DeathCam:
Changed From
DeathCamS=sprite_add("deathcam.bmp",1,0,0,0,1,400,300);
To
DeathCamS=sprite_add("deathcam.bmp",1,0,0,400,300);

:c1: :z5:

So we havent moved yet :z7:
Nothing to lose, fund it.

I didn't find any problems, I say go for it.
-
I've been using this since RC2. There aren't any problems.
-
I've been using a GM8 client for a while now, it runs great with no errors. I say do it.
-
And for you pirates out there, GM8 was far easier to crack than GM7.
But stealing is bad, you shouldn't steal from people.

I did that with the Shakeplanet TC just today.

Look into your freakin' mirror.

I did a little timed test. The GM8 version is a couple seconds faster for me from "Preparing to Launch" to the Faucet screen.

I gave a copy of the current build compiled in GM8 to Muddywater, and people claim that his server did run smoother.
Less lagspikes and whatnot.

Works great, do it.

Loading times are really fast. Good job :c1:

I wonder where people get the idea that Freddy does all the work when there are six devs.

Six?
Fredman, Cspot, MedO, Bacon, Synnah is dead, Scoot is dead, Bass is a 'developer-in-training'-
Who're the last two?

Findude, and Bass does still technically count as a Dev.
-
Actually, Fishmatt works out of the public eye, as well, so I suppose there are seven.
Or still six if you don't count Bass.

Do beta tester posts count as regular posts, because why do I see people online that have been here forever with only ten posts

I dunno, but if they do then Insani has over two thousand posts in Beta Testing/New Builds and stuff alone.

looks like a yes. Check any beta tester's general statistics if you don't believe me. Although just making a post in that section would be definite proof
