Alright GameSalad,
When is 0.9.4 coming out! This is ridiculous! I've been working on a 1 on 1 help for the past day. I cannot complete the project because every time I reopen the file nothing happens. Sorry to complain, but you really need to send the update out soon.

    I got 2 things to say to ya

    1. If Gamesalad is fn up on you, DON'T take any more jobs. So that right there is your fault.

    2. You are probably the 5th person to make a thread on this.

    we all get it, I haven't been able to work in days. (weeks?) It sucks. I have just been working on artwork. But they are trying to fix all the bugs this time so they don't have to update AGAIN and AGAIN.

    Cheers, Weswog

    it's being tested.

    and it is 100% possible to work with .9.3. some things may be broken, but it doesn't stop a good developer from working on other aspects of their project. I've seen no downtime in development with .9.3

    Well John,
    I can work on my projects & complete them, but when I'm ready to send it over, it won't open, then I try on my computer, it won't open either :(

    Look at the forums! remember you can do everything and anything in GameSalad. There are several posts that simply say on files that dont open, do the following;

    Show Package Contents
    Rename the file that is something.gsuser to anything else .gsuser and it will open.
    make sure to make a backup of the file 1st

    Rather than create another thread whinging, take 5 minutes to read the bugs and their workarounds (if there is one) and let them test this new version until its ready so we dont get more bugs like we current have!

    Despite the problems, I just upgraded to Pro. I can't believe how good Gamesalad is. This is the best game design software I have ever used (and I started on 8bit).

    there is a sticky on the front page for that issue. its called "solution to project not opening"

    At the end of the day it's beta soft wear. You should be aware of the risks. I don't like it either, but then again I'm using beta software:)

    I know about the sticky guys, have already done it :(

    I find it hard to believe that fix doesn't work. I have to do that to almost every single project someone sends me. And everything works fine

    I've released 3 game updates after 0.9.3 and started working on a new game as well, and it's been the smoothest experience since I started working with Game Salad in December. I've had a couple untimely crashes (so still need to save frequently) but other than that it stays stable for much longer and works very well. The only problem I have is this - any project from 0.9.2 that I open in 0.9.3 and then save, then close GameSalad and try to open that project, it wont open until I delete the .gsuser file. Once deleted, it opens and continues to work fine from that point forward.

    There are some strange bugs, like one I'm dealing with where unlocked instance actors in a scene do not get the updated changes to the prototype actor unless you unlock the instance and revert to prototype. Not sure what the deal is/was with that and I'm working on figuring out enough to submit a bug report.

    I assure you they know about this one. Normally it doesn't update visibly but it still works right when you play I have found though. Most of the time that is. I still normally unlock and revert for saftey sake. :)

    I've had that problem too, its starting to get on my nerves though...
  • xarmianxarmian Member Posts: 124
    Thanks tenrdrmer. I noticed that most of the time it doesn't seem to affect the actual game too, but then once in a while it actually does seem to affect the previewed game. It's a strange one, and the irregularity of it made it extra confusing. Glad to know it's in the dev's hands.
