Compatibility Layers, like Proton, your software intends to do something that requires something like windows specific features and then the compatibility layer points that in a direction that your hardware/software can actually perform and relay that back to your software correctly

Software Emulation is a task which a computer basically acts like another computer at the cost of more computational resources. This is by simulating the logic of the hardware that is needed to run the original software

Fan-Ports use accurate de-compiled source code from decomps to adapt the software to run on different hardware natively as opposed to its original intended hardware. You still need the original binary because you need to pull game assets like textures and models into the port's compilation process

Decomps/De-compilation projects are efforts done by fans to reverse engineer source code from a compiled binary (i.e. Rom file) with a goal of having a human understandable version compile to the exact same binary down to the byte or as close as possible. This is to achieve accurate source code

I remember watching a scotts stash on predicting MK9's roster where he put The Chimp from Galaxy 2 in and it grinded my gears so much I said to my gf "You know they're gonna put a racer like flame chomp in, right?" and I wasn't too far off. If you look at the racers in Tour, the cast makes sense

Solving the Gamemaker Linux/Ubuntu "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." error :steamhappy:

I've been working on a pretty big game and I've wanted to move to Linux as my daily driver. But, Gamemaker just wouldn't load my YYP file for my large project, so I was feeling tied to Windows. I finally found the bug that was tossing the: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.error at me (a very not helpful error my I add) and since I saw no one with a solution to this bug that helped me I thought I might as well share how I solved it.

The problem for me came from directories and files in the project file tree not matching the correct capitalization case the YYP file was looking for.
As an example, I had an object called ob_Airline in gamemaker that loaded perfectly fine on windows. In the folder tree it was refered to as ob_airline and Windows seemingly see case differences as functionally the same directory whereas Linux seemingly finds them to be different directories, Linux read it properly when I renamed the directory and file to ob_Airline. This can apply to more than just objects too, I also had a room with the same issue. I assume stemmed from me editing the same of a object/room in gamemaker to standardize the capitalization because of a typo. Also temporarily move the files out of your version controlled directory commit, and then put the fixed casing directories and files back where they belong and commit again to fix their casing in version control. This may not be the best way to do it, but it's what worked for me

I personally found the solution by using GMedit from yellowafterlife which could load my project on Linux, and building the code with GMEdit-Constructor from thennothinghappened which tossed my much more useful errors of the specific problem directories. which needed to get their capitalization fixed.

Make sure you update your directory's name and the .yy file's name within said directories to match the proper casing of your asset in Gamemaker/YYP files otherwise it will not load in IDE.

looking back at some of my old daily haruhis and im still quite proud of some of them. i did legitimately improve a lot over the course of that year (before i got completely burnt out by day 200) being able to experiment on low commitment drawings was really quite fun
