Which one? This thread or the other thread you made that's a copy of this one.

You don't need that book to experiment with code and look at the help files.

He is, he's just not entitled to spam here or fight the cause for competing products.

Why I didn't just lock this in the first place I'll never know - now this threads turned into some sort of pre-teen schoolyard drama.

So , i guess you are the "good friend of myne" with nickname ultranerd ? (it IS possible ...)


Quote: "dodic what grade are you in?"

Let me think for a while..it would be something like maby 28th ?


And forget about the forum thing , becouse i really didnt had a use for that forums , just keep it running for no reason ..


But belive me i dont madder , when i start carring about "
" then i`ll let you know.


p.s. Yes , GM aint so bad , but if you buy GM6.2 becouse really the last freeware one (gm4.3) is really , well , not for much of good games...

But usually i guess you want to make nice games , dont spend a penny , dont give a high effort , draw graphics in paint (imagen of buying an image editor... ) , and all people to love your games and respect you ? .. sorry , but just try to be patient , and try to NOT get bored if all that you make doesnt grab all the attension and doesnt come out as far cry 2 , just take your time .. learn Dark Basic ... Dark Basic is actually very easy to learn witch such a good sorted help , online tutorials , and a great community witch will help you out with every code you need help with. Belive it or not , people appreciate more if you post a proper BOX drawer application , then some "Great Game" witch you will never either finish , or you havent eaven started yet...
I finished some gradient drawer and random polygon drawer snippets and posted it into 20 line challenge , and i`m sure people like that much more then if i had posted "Super game ! Comming out soon ! Screenshots And Descriptions .. soon ! ... Do you like it ?"


To who ever read this whole thing , i cannot explain WHY i wrote it , and exactly on WHO i meanth (i guess i meanth it for several of "characters", but i made it a bit more generaly)

So , sorry to anyone who thinks of my post offencive.



As many of you can notice , i stoped with posting such number of unfinished projects , and stoped with "spamming"(i never wanted to call it Spamming , so i always used ""...) (or at least i think so) , only projects i posted recently is actually the Fpsc Segment Creator witch is fully working , and i can freely say its finished.
(a while back.. g-launcher (it was also totaly working and i can call it finished))


Why did i inprove : Well at the first place , i liked to get some attention , so i posted/made a lot of projects to do it (i admitt it ! ) , and well recently , i just learned a little more , i was interested in LEARNING more then to (well whatever was i doing before) , and now , i`m actually come , and prepared to work out a project fully and then post it , or if i`m gonna post it , at least i`m going to finish it. (and now i`m thinking more about what are my limits , so i dont post projects that i cant really make...)






and p.s. i forgot some things to quote..


Quote: "me and my firends did i to his forums because he wreked ours so dodica is the one u should be worried about not me or airdoo"

Hm.. yes it was actually wierd how their forums got eraced , maby they did it , maby a server glitch , maby actually hack (who would hack into a free forum with few members and erace it ??) , and he thinks i somehow "hacked" and eraced his whole forums... Well , if i would erace his forums witch i visited once a week and didnt disslike at all , "tgc , dont get angry about this part" , what would i do to the tgc forums when at the first place i didnt liked a , well lets just say a number of members... (Wasnt aware of what i was doing back there , i didnt reallise that i was only bothering people with posts of such a lot of projects ... i`m aware now anyways.. )

And who is Dodica in the first place ...


(Just joking , that was my name on my forums , but my real last name is Dodic , so i dont use Dodica anywhere anymore )




edit : Whouv , when i clicked on "post message" button , as saw my message ... i almost got a heart attack.. maby i should write a book and post a link here ...

A wise man once said, "Game Maker is good... but DB Pro is better". (That would be me )

Ok. Think of it this way: how many commercial games have been created with GM? The answer: if any, not very many. Ok, here's another question: How many commercial games has DB / DB Pro created? Answer: alot. (and very good ones too: DTS; 3D Mahjong; etc.)

Game Maker is a great program, and actually has quite alot of commercial games. And, unlike some think, it is not a point-and-click game maker, but actually has a somewhat advanced, c-like programming language called GML. Though Dark Basic is better in many ways(alot better 3D, that's for sure!), you have to give some respect to Professor Mark Overmars for making such a great program. Also, if you haven't used the program since 4.3, don't judge it! It has changed alot since then.

Hope this won't get deleted!

-Okashira

PS : I think the TGC Forums should be more like the Game Maker Community, it has a great setup.

Let the games begin!
