GameMaker 8.1.141 Standard (Portable, by PHL).

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It is portable (you do not need to install it).

To start it, choose “Game_Maker.exe” .

If that does not work, there are three other ways to start it:

1) Use “START GameMaker 8.1.141.exe”

or

2) First open "GameMaker.exe" (the updater) if it is not open. It appears as a blue dot in the taskbar. And then open "Game_Maker.exe" (game creation program)

or

3) Use “Game Maker 8.1.141.bat”.

THINGS I ADDED:

- START GameMaker 8.1.141.exe (and START GameMaker 8.1.141.png).

- Extension Maker and Library Maker for Game Maker 7 and later.

- Game Maker Tutorials.

- Windows XP Sound Recorder : sndrec32.exe . It can reduce the size of a WAV file to that of an MP3 file without changing the WAV into MP3. This is important because GameMaker 8.1 has the most features (such as sound effects and playing multiple sounds) when using WAV files. But WAV files are usually large. And MP3 files are limited (only one sound plays at a time) when used in GameMaker8.1.  So you need the benefits of WAV files in GameMaker while also enjoying the benefits of MP3’s small filesize. Solution: make an MPEG Layer-3 WAV file.

To make MPEG Layer-3 WAV files, load the WAV file into Windows XP Sound recorder (you can drag the file to it). Go to “File”, and choose “Properties”. Choose “Convert Now”. Go to “Format” and choose “MPEG Layer-3” (it may appear near bottom of list. If “MPEG Layer-3” does not appear, you may need to install an MP3 codec in your Windows computer).  Choose your attributes (smaller values cause smaller filesizes), and choose OK. Now you can see that the information says “Audio Format: MPEG Layer-3” along with your attributes. Choose OK. Go to “File” and choose “Save As” and  save the WAV file, which can be taken into GameMaker 8.1 as a “Normal Sound”.  (MP3 files could not be accepted as “Normal Sounds”.)
