With Game Maker 8 recently released, we could move gg2 over to it.  I have built the gg2 exe in gm8 so we can test it out.

Please download it and give it a try.  Do any new bugs come up?  Do you get any new errors?  Is it faster?  Is it worth making the switch to gm8?

This is the current version, 2.1.4.  3 scripts were changed because there were changes to GM functions.

global.CustomMapCollisionSprite = sprite_create_from_surface(walkmaskSurface, 0, 0, surface_get_width(walkmaskSurface), surface_get_height(walkmaskSurface), true, true, false, true, 0, 0);

Nothing to lose, fund it.

I didn't find any problems, I say go for it.

[Phantom Brave]

I've been using this since RC2. There aren't any problems.

I've been using a GM8 client for a while now, it runs great with no errors. I say do it.

And for you pirates out there, GM8 was far easier to crack than GM7.

But stealing is bad, you shouldn't steal from people.

I did that with the Shakeplanet TC just today.

Look into your freakin' mirror.

I did a little timed test.  The GM8 version is a couple seconds faster for me from "Preparing to Launch" to the Faucet screen.

I gave a copy of the current build compiled in GM8 to Muddywater, and people claim that his server did run smoother.

Less lagspikes and whatnot.
