Hey everyone, how's it going?

I am leaving 64Digits. To go to the bathroom.

Okay, now, this is a GM blog, so, you can stop reading now if you wanna.

Okay, so you want to make an easy, paint like program?

You can. Without using any sort of GML, either. Here are the limitations:

You must be okay with a plain, black background.

Also, GM 6.1 is required.

Okay, so in the room settings, set show background color to false. Then, make there be no background.

Now, make an object that moves around. Notice how it leaves a trail? This could be used for a paint program, very easily. Infact, I might just make an example outta that.

Also, Melee has just made a blog about detecting mouse patterns. Now, I think I have a simple way to solve this:

Using alarms, record the mouse position once a second. Now, record the last, 10 maybe? Then you can use point_direction to check for patterns with the two. (

if point_direction(mxp1,myp1,mxp0,myp0) > 100

{

if point_direction(mxp1,myp1,mxp0,myp0) < 120

{

do something

}

}

mxp1 meaning mouse x previous 1, and you can guess the others from that…

and you could do a mxp1 = mxp0 thing, with a big line of those to switch all the variables up one everytime it records.

I hope that made sense…

But, yeah, I have been working with GM a bit more lately, toying with the idea of continuing my 4E5 project, which I cancelled before… and I have been considering downloading Dev-C++… but Dev-Pascal made no sense whatsoever to me, so, Idk…

Tag Suggestions:

I think you should add a tag too simulate the add_friend thing, since it doesn't work to link those.

Also, maybe a tag to display a random username?

Or a random word… And delete the factlib tag, they are too slow, and you can always use the image thing.

Also, as some of you may know, I made a 64digits userbar. Here it is:

Put this in your GMC signature:

without the spaces to make this:

Fuck the phantom.
