I’d need someone to work on the achivements for my upcoming game since I don’t have flash. Thanks to help if you can.

How are you making this upcoming game if you don`t even have flash?

I make it on Game Maker and convert it to flash.

You can’t convert Game maker to Flash, you have to make it from scratch in Flash… which will take a while to learn… and $799

I would like to see that happen… Any proof?

Probably not.

If by convert, you mean have somebody completely recode the Game in ActionScript, then I would Believe you, but I doubt you would have someone that Skilled and Helpful to do that.

There is no Program that can convert an .EXE into a functional .SWF

S/he’s talking about converting a Game Maker project to .swf, not .exe to .swf. I don’t know anything about Game Maker, but a quick google search shows that yes, such a tool does exist. Zach, please shut up. And next time you try to tear someone down, perhaps you should check that you’re correct before making yourself look dumb.

Alala: what exactly do you mean by needing someone to work on the achievements? If you’re talking about implementing the Kongregate api to allow Kongregate to add achievements, it may or may not be reasonably possible, depending on if the Game Maker to SWF tool allows one to generate Actionscript source code or if it goes straight to generating flash bytecode (.swf)….

In Zach’s defence, in order to finalise the Gamemaker project (and yes, I have used it before) you need to convert it to .exe, otherwise you have a project that can be edited by anyone.

Also, having a small amount of experience in this field, I have heard bad things about that paticular tool, namely that it produces LOTS of gliches and horrible Actionscript, and is highly ineffective, with that info, I would suggest you take care and don’t try to make the game into a Flash file until you have tested the tool sufficiently, make sure you try it with small games like “Catch the Clown” before you put a large game with actual effort used and risk it not working.

I think I’ll let it down. I won’t make a game. Slipstream is probably right…
Thanks anyway…
