When i run it it says "unexpected error" and then it closes out

A great program. I can make lots of nice particle effects easily. For example...

When i run it it says "unexpected error" and then it closes out

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Possible Causes:
1) You didnt extract the files
2) You clicked it in a menu
3) You ran it by using "open with..."

The reason why it gets that unexpected error is because it has a problem with a dll and a parameter at the same time. I want to fix it, but it may take a bit to figure out.

The problem with the clipboard is that none of the "export to clipboard" options put anything on the clipboard. I'm using Windows XP, and it worked fine in version 1.2.

[Alert Games]

hmmm... i have tested it. What tab did you try to export?

My first impressions are very good.

Um... Thanks

[GrayAvocado]

keep it up

[dawesbr]

Wow, I've used this extensively now and I find this AMAZING!

I love the random - this is quite entertaining.

The ability to move emitters, change the room speed and do everything else with the particles is just brilliant! Having it all extract to GML was a great stroke of awesomeness. I love this program! 10/10!

I've tried exporting the particle system and the emitter, but neither of them put anything on the clipboard. Is there anything I forgot to do?

No, I just noticed the bug myself. There was an error in the emitter export script, so I will fix that for 2.1. Obviously my beta testers weren't that good >_> Sorry about that. I guess PD2.1 will become a greater priority.

Also, the menu dll is causing a lot of problems. You can only run the program directly pretty much, and it won't work in a GM7 executable at all. I will probably get a new dll, or use some sort of menu example to fix this. The skin could use some work as well.

You may see version 2.1 come out sooner than I planned. =o

That was tight. What else is there to say?

[icuurd12b42]

Looks cool, too bad it's not a GM7 exe.

[Alert Games]

Tha main problem is that if I make it a GM7 exe, then the menus will not work. I need a good menu system GM7 compatable before the release of version 2.1.

So far, I fixed a bug, and i'm working on fixing another bug. Im also working on the appearance, and eventually a little of the codebox and an efficient save method.

Version 2.1 will be a better realease than version 2.0

[FredFredrickson]

What is the code that makes it incompatible?

[Alert Games]

Actually, I don't know. I just tested it and it worked fine.

The real problem is, whenever a parameter string is used, GM (6 or 7) does not open a file for reading, and causes it to not load your current settings. This can be a problem, cause if you don't click on the EXE itself, a parametric string maybe used and set off the settings. Do you have any idea how to solve this?

IT'S FINALY RELEASED!!!!!!!!!!!1

I shall love it, and hug it, and call it cuddles... and feed it crackers when it's hungry-

[Alert Games]

You can use it, but I would wait for PD1.2 XD

Apparently, GM has a problem reading files when there is a parameter string, so I am going to fix that too Along with the others mentioned above.

[icuurd12b42]

Lets us know when you convert it to 7
