GameMaker updated (v 8.1.113) (also android stuff)

That's awesome! There's some minor changes I don't absolutely need! But I do like updating to the latest version, …I don't know how the hell to update this crap. Auto updater isn't doing anything and I can't find anything on the site.

YoYoGames… only you would do stuff in a way I would love and despise you… D:

Anyway I rooted my phone - Samsung Galaxy Prevail (boos mobile network). I removed hookt (worst excuse for an online dating/hookup service) and some other things but..

What the heck should I do now? Not a big deal to get hotspots enabled (boost doesn't allow it and the battery sorta sucks so I can do without it) but what should I do? Any interesting skins/themes/UIs to try? Anyone know any theme editors/bootup screen editors/icon editors/whatever?

Any way to get flash onto this thing? This device doesn't support it supposedly (I can't download it from the marketplace..

My updates happen automatically. Just right click the icon on the taskbar, click "Check for Updates." I liked this update a lot. Panning around the room is nice, but also unfriendly to those without a middle mouse button. Still, it made putting stuff on the outside a lot easier than it used to be.

I forgot what else happened.

Mine updated just fine.

I dont see anything on particles, and i only glanced at the updates screen, which now seems to not be found anywhere else >:(

They didn't mention that they buggered up particles in gm8, but the particle effects I made for JID on gm7 don't work on gm8.

What's wrong with particles? I've been using them quite a bit and haven't seen any issues, and most of my games use particle systems that were ported from GM7.

…Unless you're using some particularly advanced features that I wouldn't dream of touching.

I right click GM8.1's icon on the taskbar and it just pulls up a basic un-interesting menu.

And any ideas of things for android that I can add to it? :P

You guys should make a 64 Digits app for Android and iOS. Seriously.

I never got GameMaker 8. It's too expensive for me now.
