Hi guys I know that many functions such as execute_... and object_event_add have been removed. So what I want to know is there any alternate way to load external object from a text file and add event? Also what happen after you compile the game? Is all the file stored in a large exe or externally?

Not entirely sure what your question is..but to help you out.

You can save/load from text files, on any device.
You can save/load from ini files, on any device.

Hope that clears up whatever you're needing.

Included files currently has issues. This will be addressed soon.

I receive "object_add() not implemented" error whenever I try to use it so is those function such as object_add, sprite_add etc. Are they going to be implemented?

Really? I've had no success writing files to my iPhone 4. It reads them just fine but cannot create files. I haven't tried modifying existing files though. No issues on Windows or Android writing files, thankfully.

i tried and successed ,the problem is not enrypt.each object,event.....make by script.and all of them is js )

I don't follow you :[

I just did a simple test:

fileID = file_text_open_write("test.txt");
file_text_write_string(fileID, "testing");
file_text_close(fileID);

It returns the file is not opened for writing error.

I also tried adding working_directory and program_directory to the path and it makes no difference.

your code:file_text_write_string(fileID, "testing"); <<<<wrong
compiling is sytem file.then it can not read .the file is extent 'testing.txt'

[brighteyes]

your code:file_text_write_string(fileID, "testing"); <<<<wrong
compiling is sytem file.then it can not read .the file is extent 'testing.txt'

Sorry man, I'm just having a hard time understanding your English. My point was just that the code above works fine on Windows and Android (Viewsonic G-Tablet running 2.2), but returns the "file is not opened for reading" at run-time (no compile errors) on iOS.


Anyways, I feel like I may have gotten off-topic. Didn't mean to hijack your thread swang99!

EDIT: You know what, ignore my posts. Apparently it works just fine now >_< Must have gotten fixed in one of the updates without me noticing.

I can not write anything in the archives GM Studio

mayarq = file_text_open_append("dados.txt");
file_text_write_string(mayarq,"Teste");
file_text_writeln(mayarq);
file_text_close(mayarq);

I'm having trouble as well.

This worked in HTML5, but doesn't seem to work now:


f=file_text_open_read('four.txt')
while( !file_text_eof(f) ){
s = file_text_read_string(f)
file_text_readln(f);
ds_map_add(global.dictionary,s,0);
}
file_text_close(f);

Note sure if it is my fault or the steam studio version have some bug, I tried to write to a file, didn't work.

//Writing to Achievement File
file = file_text_open_write("\data\achievement.dat");
file_text_write_string(file, achievement);
file_text_write_string(file, achievement);
file_text_close(file);

When I run this, the program said file not opened for writing or something like that.

//Writing to Achievement File
file = file_text_open_append("\data\achievement.dat");
file_text_write_string(file, achievement);
file_text_write_string(file, achievement);
file_text_close(file);

When I run this, GM Game just crash...
