Shortcuts are saved as part of a high score, actually. I've never really been clear on how that works. The best advice I can offer is to look at what Derek did to make the shortcut doors appear and do something similar.
Yeah thats what stoped me from working on gates for a month.. I'll keep trying |

UGH. Stupid Game maker having it's requirements for PRO. Seriously, I can't even run my executable without needing PRO. I wish I had 25 dollars, and I had a way to use it on the internet this sucks.
Anyways, yeah. I'm an uber noob alright, I've been reading the code and looking at things for an hour, and all I've done is add a new sprite, and figure out that rooms are 40x32 and there are 16 10x8's.
and i know this isn't really a question, I'm just saying.
But I do have a question, how exactly did Derek make it so that each area, except the last has 4 levels, or is that in the scrRoomGen* code? Sorry, the whole code confuses me :x

Please phrase your question in the form of...a question? What were you trying to ask?
And, yes, you'll need GM Pro to do just about anything with Spelunky.

Yeahh, I forgot to save my work while working on my Mod for Spelunky in Game maker.
So I need help to unfreeze it, so I can save my work.
Anyone know how to unfreeze Game Maker?
P.S. no, messing with the priority of it in Task manager doesn't work apparently (even though that's what I have to do for every other program to make it run more smoothly and not freeze or to get it to unfreeze.)
EDIT: Oh well. I closed it. I figured I was just wasting time. But still, if anyone knows how, it would be nice to know (because that's the second time it froze on me like that)

As far as I know, there's no way to unfreeze it. It only seems to happen when I'm editing sprites, so I always save my progress before I do any sprite work. You'd be well advised to do the same.

Yeah, I started saving after every sprite I edited, because the last time it happened, I had to reedit like 15 sprites. (bats, spiders etc.)

GM backs up your file every so often (or only when you test? I'm not sure), so check your save folder for .gb1, gb2, etc. files.

Oh well. thanks, I found a "gb.1" that was somewhere around The time that it crashed, but It's alright... this time at least, because I already redid all the sprites and even more, so no harm done, just time wasted. But thanks for the little tidbit, it will probably be helpful i the future

What's the most practical way to copy an Object from one GM project to another? (e.g. from TLS to a new mod, or whatever) I understand other scripts often have to be edited as well to make things work, I'm just talking about the object itself. Game Maker's Export Resources function seems pretty useless.
