This like the one e_barroga has made is an extension of the very popular 39 DLL. Mine has all of the DLL functions with the DLL built in. If you find any errors in it please PM me.

Great work. Finally got an extension for 39 dll.

Definitely will be using it.

dllinit() isn't a known function.

This is cool now i won't have to include the dll in my game. I will use this to make my own online engine that i have been wanting to do.

Thanks Bob Hoil

ummm, its pretty good, but people thinking its not included in there game... it's saved in the temporary folder. All extensions are saved in the temporary folder and then in the folder u specified for the extension. You can easily put 39DLL in the temporary folder (the include function thing) and load it from there with GM6. The only good thing...

THIS EXTENSION DOES IT FOR YOU!

Wich version of that DLL is that using. clearbuffer() doesn't work though. Good work, good way to spend time here, lol.

as far as I know its the newest one... I'm not sure why clearbuffer() isnt working. I'll look at it.

Now that there is an extension for the 39dll, why don't you make a lib? Very good extension, I have been trying to make online games for awhile.

Well I know that..... maybe I should word it differently...

Anyway a lib would be good but since this has so many functions I could only put a few in the lib.

clearbuffer() doesn't work for me either, says not enough arguments. I think you forgot to make its only argument optional.

[the_doominator]

idk. I'm pretty sure if you just want to clear the default buffer to use 0. Make sure to put a 0 in it cuz scripts automatically adds a 0 in if there isnt an argument but functions dont do that.

Okay how would I use this? Im a noob to stuff like this. Can somebody tell me the steps to use this thing? I have registered GM7... and WinRAR, if that could help me get this thing going. WAIT! DONT SAY I! Lol I found da guide...

1.)  First, download an extension.  It should be a .gex file (or one included in a archive format like zip).  If archived, other files might be present as well, but the .gex file is what you want.

2.)  If archived, unzip to a temp location such as your desktop.  It doesn't really matter where, since you can remove/delete it after it's installed.

3.)  Pop open Game Maker 7.x and double click where it says 'Extension Packages' in the tree view on to the left.

4.)  This should bring up a dialog displaying various installed extensions.  For now, click the button on the lower right that says 'install'.

5.)  Another dialog appears, this time showing the various extensions you can uninstall.  To install a new extension, click on the button at the top which says 'install'.

6.)  Now you are given a typical 'open file' dialog.  Go to the temp location where you  placed the .gex file earlier.  Then select open.

7.)  You should now see it listed on the left with the other 'currently installed' extensions.

sorry about that....well, I have it installed on my blank game file, so...what now? This is just a hunch, but, do I also need that 39dll thing too?

[the_doominator]

no you dont need the dll. After you install it click the extensions button and then on th 39DLL Extension. Then click the left arrow to start using it.

[Konochi]

is this also for gm6?

[the_doominator]

Extensions don't work for gm6. They are a new feature in GM7.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

You can still use the dll......

[Bill23]

This looks really good, but can you please add a help file?

[the_doominator]

This looks really good, but can you please add a help file?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I don't really want too. Ask 39ster if you need help with it...

[Alexander_Q]

So........ Does the extension still require the DLL scripts to be imported? Because with them, I get an error the first time it tries to do anything 39.dll related (like TCPlisten - doesn't know the variables in the DLL script) and without them, I get a compilation error with sendmessage (wrong number of arguments).

What's the story?
