Maybe you are passing negative values. Or zero. There's certainly not enough information to help you.

Er, no, I just loaded up an old .gm6 into a just-bought 8.1 to check for compatibility and I ended up with this.


Edit: Replacing it with logn doesn't work either.

Well, what are you taking the log of? Mathematically it's defined for all positive values of x, but GM also has a maximum limit somewhere.

[Taizen Chisou]

A variable referred to in game as 'showpoints,' which is always a positive integer.

Edit:

Showpoints is always a positive integer bound within 0 to 9,999,999.

I'm not completely sure how this worked fine in GM6, but you could make a 'wrapper' script like this:

if argument0 > 0 return log10(argument0) else return 0

[Taizen Chisou]

...I went and made my own log script that returned how many iterations of arg0 / arg1 passed before arg0 < arg1 >_>

So... log(0) worked in GM6, but not in GM8.

Sure then, let's go with that.
