I need help with my game, I need to be able to save the game when Im playing as you would with saving your project in game maker and then when I load the saved game it will load as in game maker projects.
plz help.

If what I think you want is what yu want then it's completely impossible but if what I think you want isn't what you want then explain what you want a lil' better.

nah Im talking about writing to file so when someone plays my game they can save where they are up to and go back when ever they want. but I want the saving and loading like when you save and open your project in gamemaker.

F5 to save.
F6 to load.

use the load game and save game functions...

no I've tried that and its not good enough for my game.
I need it in code.
but what I want to do is when they are saving they can call the file what ever they choose and when they are loading a game they pick a game from the folder.
do you get what I mean?

yeah i think so you mean like you have a list so as a example

SAVED GAMES PLEAE SELECT YOUR GAME TO LOAD

-saved game
-saved game
-empty
-empty
-empty
-empty
-empty
-empty
-empty
-empty

do you mean something like that?

Carl has a good save and load example. It can be found on Carl's Website under the examples page. i dunno if it's the kind of save and load example you need, but it does use scripts so.... yeah....

yeah thanks for the help at carls website it was exactly what I wanted. thanks for the help everyone really appresiate it.

No probs.

np, Carls site is a great place to find examples...you should keep that in your favorites. :D

got it, thanks
