Title: Screenshot posting help!
Post by: vdweller on May 23, 2010, 10:06:55
Greetings,
I would like to help me on a matter of mine. I am trying to develop a new game with Game Maker 8. It has a retro 2x scale graphical output, but on my PC it appears slightly distorted, as seen in my attachments.
I got a couple of nice, clean screenshots from the GM community, and thus I think its my PC only, or at least a small number of PCs where those graphics look glitched.
If you could please download the game .exe (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?nvzznnmmntd) (it's 1,37 MB), run it, press F9 and upload a screenshot, you would be very helpful.
So, what does the game display look like on your system?

Well, um... yeah. It sort of doesn't display at all. :/

This is a problem with Game Maker's surfaces; it's a dice roll whether they'll work on a particular machine. The solution is to use a less horrible game development program.

or make an output that doesn't produce such eyesoreness like any of those screenshots look like at least to me? :oops: X)
