It looks like James Garner is giving Dark Flow his full attention and it's been like that for about a year but I've been told by James Garner himself that he might be releasing a new version of DS Game Maker called 'DS Game Maker X'. Just in case some of you people don't know. James Garner started DS Game Maker when he was 14 years old and before that, when he was 13 years old, he started his project, XtenDS. Hopefully James will get round to doing this.

Cool!

Yeah, he told me about that once. http://dsgamemakerx.com/

It may never happen. James rarely finishes what he starts, it seems.

If it ain't open-source/doesn't allow the user to modify core structure (makefile etc.), I'm out.

The community works perfectly fine as far as fixes, patches and additional content are concerned, but only when it can actually influence the compilation process. PAlib's dead, devkitPRO is moving forward and DSGM5 is brought to a stand-still because the user has no influence over compilation routines since they're generated automatically with each compilation.

This impedes adding libraries, for example. If not for that, I'd be the first one in line to write NFLib Actions for the app. Right now I don't even use DSGM anymore, exactly due to those limitations. Overcoming them is more of a chore than skipping the app entirely, I'm afraid.

Without the capacity to improve the application, oldies just leave once they reach its limits.

Yeah, it's really bad now with DevkitPro V41.

Trollolololooo - Leaked DS Game Maker X screenie:

Looks the same as DS Game Maker 5. I wonder if he's remaking it or just using the same layout and images.

If this actually come out, I can't wait.

by **Buck_7** » August 29th, 2012, 7:04 pm

Cool!.... Scenes?

by **YoshiInAVoid** » August 29th, 2012, 7:34 pm

Scenes are instead of rooms.

Looks like Dark Flow but DS only and generally better overall. Look, he actually has a screen for variables! Why not do that in the program you plan on making bigger than DSGM!

One of our secret Skype messages: (Not sure if I'm allowed to post this one but I'll do it anyway

Jam- erm.. Danny? wrote:nope, that has consistently done worse than DS Game Maker

in fact Dark Flow is a failure

I am going to write a new Dark Flow called [censored by Bobby to keep it a surprise!]

I can leak stuffs too

by **Buck_7** » August 30th, 2012, 12:00 am

...called Dark Flow X?

by **Mint** » August 30th, 2012, 1:15 am

Don't forget, I can also leak stuffs!

Me wrote:Alright let's listen to the theme of lo- *spills coke* dang it!

Wait wat

Well, let's face it, Gareth Funk, ToastyThunder, James and Robert all are either dead, don't care anymore about dark flow or are chinese (ToastyThunder

)

And I'm sure James is calling it something stupid like danyf-L-ix X or something to assure us that this is to save up money for something useless.

No you can't! James said I could be the inside man / secret agent!

James wrote:You can be the "inside man", the "secret agent"

He said he changed his name to Danny just for a joke BTW.

Heh. You keep telling yourself that.
Little did Yoshi know, I'm the REAL secret agent hired by James to eliminate Yoshi... who has been fooled so that he'd never see it coming!

Haha - now that you no longer want to post to keep your post count at 1234 I guess I'll be the only DS Game Maker X information leaker.
