Reformatted

Posted by Zac1790 on Nov. 29, 2008, 9:07 a.m.

I kind of reformatted my computer. So, though I saved actual files, I don't have a registered copy of Game Maker anymore. Or anything else for that matter… Except maybe Plantlife, Tree Magik, etc. But those are on discs.

The thing is, I bought Game Maker before version 7 was out (like most of the active members here). And so I had to go to Yoyo Games and be like, here's the code, please generate me my 7. And then it was like, NO. (not NO but more like, this key isn't recognized, blablabla)

I tried my key from 5 and 6 and neither worked, so I just have to sit back and hope they get to my little ticket thing it made before it's too late. I was kind of planning on releasing two games like, in 20 days. And now it's been 2 weeks with no reply from YoYo Games.

*frustrated*

But other than that things are going good. The computer is epic fast again, schoolwork is going fairly smoothly, my best friend is on leave from military school, and I'll probably get districts in two events for swimming this coming up week. Oh yeah, and I got voted co-captain even though I'm a Junior :)

*less frustrated*

UPDATE:

Found it! lol.

*not frustrated*

Thanks for listening,

No one blames you; even now, YoYo Games hasn't done anything to the actual program except make it harder to register!

If they finished the Mac version I might give them kudos or maybe mail a cookie to the UK. But other than that, they are TeH sUCk.

Good luck. I've been waiting over a year.

I wasn't listening, I was reading, sorry. We don't all use MS Sam to read these you know.

I bought it back in the GM5 era, back then the money went to Mark, I wouldn't be buying it now considering a large proportion probably goes to YYG. Plus my key no longer works and softwrap is being a bitch and not fixing it for me. Piracy :3

Never got my 6.1 key up to 7, just had to buy it again. *Blarble*

Contrary to all of you, I never had any problem with my GM7 reg key. When I'd used up the 3 possible registrations, I emailed them and they sent me another key for free =)

See, I GOT my GM7 key easily - it just wouldn't give me more than 1 install, and neither yoyo nor softwrap will respond.
