I Hate MegamixEngine

[Tyrranux]

There was a reason I kept asking for help when I was struggling with that one Pokemon Emerald Rom Hack, no matter how hard I try I just can't do certain things on my own. My own mental disability prevents me from being able to learn complex programming, as does my depression which I can't even get medicine for. As crappy as HexManiacAdvance can be at times it actually made it possible to make that "Frisk In Pokemon" hack with prayers and duct tape. I only wish such a program existed for the Mega Man series....instead of this dead end I'm trying to work with.

This so called "Megamix Engine".

For starters, that "GMS 1.4.9999" the website said I needed to run it? Demanded I have Steam just to even run it. And then? It didn't even load, no license. So it was literally useless junk I couldn't even run. While Megamix Engine did load onto this other version of GameMaker I found it clearly wasn't made with this version in mind so it barely functions. I can't add new collision without duplicating that damn instance layer, I can't add other collision such as spikes or items, I can't even scroll left or right, only up or down. About an hour trying to figure this thing out I just want to jump off a cliff.

I just want to make a Mega Man game, I just wanna try to make a Mega Man game. But every venue available has been a conga line of dead ends in one way or another. Some just crash minutes after loading, others are not even remotely as simple as advertised, others just in "Japanese" (by which I mean everything is just labeled in varying lengths of "???????????" meaning it's not even Japanese!). I wish I could just get a team together but that would require either Youtuber Alpharad levels of popularity or a monetary budget in the triple digits. So......I'm just up crud creek without a paddle getting nowhere.....

Yeah I tried that too like a year ago. Sucks that it's just the same Mario Maker format where you can't even bundle your levels together into a single campaign. And the maker interface was rather slow.
