SoftWrap doesn’t work on my computer. The way i see it we ought to buy Gm the good old fashioned way, i.e sending the cash to mister Overmars by mail and him sending the Pro edition like that back to us. Seems way more normaller to me.

@MBeta you forgot the fact that everything out there must be 200X harder to use

[...] month we predicted it would go and today Sandy said “we won’t be using Softwrap for GM8″ on Twitter in response [...]

To tell you the truth, I hate softwrap!
I think the way Mark Overmars did it before was MUCH MUCH better.

Well if they do choose to use Soft[C]rap again, then a big F-U to yoyogames. I don’t need their garbage. There are plenty of better game makers out there : Worldweaver DX Studio, StoneTrip Shiva, Clickteams Multimedia Fusion, Torque Game Builder, Torque Advanced Engine, Visual3D.net….etc…etc so yoyogames can take their S[hit]Wrap and stick it where the sun don’t shine for all I care, their $25 piece of turd isn’t worth the trouble since it doesn’t even prevent the software from being cracked in the first place.

They’d probably just let you reactivate it again.

its beens so long now, and i cant recall the details, but i did purchase GM prior to v7. went to upgrade, couldnt activate. softwrap didnt want to know about it. therefore i never used GM again.
i stuck with more reliable programs like clickteams range.
