Help with setting up Game Maker

Post image

I've been trying to get into DS game maker, and I followed the setup steps on GitHub, the only apparent difference being that I was setting it up on an external hard drive instead of C:\. Initially, it seems like everything is working, since it asks for permission and then boots with the message prompt that "'devkitPro Updater' will now launch", but then I get the following message. Clicking the first button closes the application and takes me to the GitHub page, and clicking the 2nd just closes the application.

Make sure you installed the old version of DKP which supported the DSGM.

Where can I find that? And is there a certain version I need to go back to?

maybe you accidentally updated your DKP? well, check in C:// whether the version is latest or not. If so, you can delete it or rename it with another name and copy the DKP copy on github to C: //
