Save and load script

good job

Don't work with gamemaker 6.1!

Of course that yes!

can u plz post an gm6 example any1?

wow thanks man this is the best script eva . this is going to make my game so better u are the best gamemaker scripter ever!!!!!!!

Damn it wouldn\'t work; Wrong number of arguments

No guys, if you want it to work, yuo have to set it up like this. Lets say you're running this script from a piece of code, it would look like this

save_load(0,'.sav');

*The save_load can be subsituted with the name of your script.

could u help me, cause I tried it and it didn't work! I put an action "execute a script", selected the saving one, and pressed ok. what aruments should i put there? what does mean "argument0 = 0 for saving, 1 for loading"?

Hello samushi.

To save a game with .sav extension you can use (if the script is named save_load)
save_load(0,'.sav');
To load the game you use:
save_load(1,'.sav');

See the tutorial 'How to execute a script' for more information. Enjoy.

WOW! thankz, man! this script has done so much! now my game is cooler and i understand GML better!

it doesn't work

In wich event i have to put this?

THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Like the name says man!

I used your script and made it as an action using Library Maker. But the script works for me and i like it.

I just need some simple scripts for an RPG game that im doing for school can anyone help me???

Hey! I am the programmer of Doom Nightmare-Games and i just want to ask anyone about scripts. Ex. I want to make a WWW-button to my website in the game but it just wont work! I tried this:
{
action_website(my_home_page);
}
It just wont work! Can anyone guide me to a website for script-programming-amatours! Please!

I keep getting an error:

In script script_:
Error in code at line 15:
SaveGame = get_save_filename('SaveGame(*' + argument1 + ')|*' + argument1 + '', '');

at position 48: Wrong type of arguments to +.

How can I resolve this?

i keep getting an error: to

the same as above, this messes.

Error in code at line 15:
SaveGame = get_save_filename('SaveGame(*' + argument1 + ')|*' + argument1 + '', '');

at position 48: Wrong type of arguments to +.

the script won't work at all. can you please a script that work.

Stefan.

Can you please help me make a platform game where the players sprite moves. The way I make it, when you have to move, it creates it again, right next to the privious one, thus, restarting the sprite and going to frame 0.HELP ME if you don't me.

Works fine for me. Thanks a lot! =)

yo :d nice script but dont know how to use it

tyga101,
i've seen many people have this problem and make a script called'image_single2'
in the script put:
image_index=argument0
image_speed=argument1
and lets say you want frame2 and speeds of 3
then have in code:
image_single2(2,3)

I don't know much about GML but it would be a good idea to put
if SaveGame != ''
before
game_save(SaveGame);
because if you push cancel it'll create an error.

Thanks for script

i tried this script and although it works, once it finishes is comes up with
at position 48: Wrong type of arguments to +. if i press ignore it go's away but it is quite anoying and anyone playing it will think it stuffed up

How do I make it so if the player presses 'New Game', it overwrites the old save file? And also, how do I make it so if the save file doesn't exist, it starts at the first room in the game?

i have no idea how to use the script. i really need some help plz

Is There a way to save and choose where you want to save it and to change your save name and that when you load it you can find it in a directory ?

The file name says SaveGame(.sav) when i saved the game.
When i load, the file name says SaveGame
. I can't load the file just because of that.

You're awesome!! If only I was that good at GML.

I have no idea what any of this means, some people get it, and love you because it works, some people sort of get it, but mess, up, some people, such as myself, have no idea where to start exactly, so please answer our calls and give us CLEAR STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS!!!PLZ it will make our lives oh so better...

There is a tutorial how to execute a script, linked from right above this list of comments.
That explains how to use this script.
