![]() Obviously, an incomplete installer won’t work, so that appears to have been the culprit all along. Eventually, I found a link that someone provided in the Game Maker Community forums, and began downloading it with Google Chrome.Ībout an hour later, I saw the download terminate as though it had completed successfully, but when I checked the file size, only about 50MB of the 93MB I was expecting was there. I tried looking for an alternate way to download the update, and it was difficult to find a direct link to the file - the only way to obtain it seems to be through the YoYoGames store. Each attempt took an hour or more, and when the updater indicated that the update was complete and ready to install, nothing would happen - it would fail silently, and on next launch, prompt me to re-download the same update again. Yesterday, I spent many hours patiently waiting for the latest update to download. But last night none of this made a bit of difference. I’m not sure if these really do make a difference or not, but in the past when I tried these measures it seemed to help. In the past, I have found that (on Windows 7, at least) one or two things might make the update process a little more reliable: launch Game Maker using “Run as administrator”, and exit the main Game Maker program while running the updater app. The last two or three of these have been extremely problematic, with very slow downloads, and repeated silent failures of the updater to run when the download shows that it is completed and the update is ready to install. For a while now, new builds have been released every few days now, and it seems like every time I fire up the development environment, it’s got another update for me. YoYoGames has been releasing updates to Game Maker Studio at a very fast pace lately.
