You sure they'll actually answer said questions?

What with all they have to do, I don't think they entirely care about the questions you're going to ask, or any questions for that matter.

They've done it for lots of Interviews. I'm sure they'll answer another one.

Last Question before I send:
Do you think that instead of including the Interpreter INSIDE the Game's EXE, you could make it a DLL that people could stick in their System32 Folder so that all Game Maker Game could access it? DLLs ARE designed to be much faster than EXEs, and able to be accessed by Many EXEs before starting to Lag, after all.

Now we just need the EMail of either Sandy or Mark.

Will GameMaker have the ability to duplicate not just sprites,objects,etc, but also GROUPS with them in it? It would save a lot of time than just duuplicating a sprite over and over to get that fire mario you need to recolor -------------------- Ive been made by: Orange452, Yak, Soiyeruda, Luigis#1, Gato, Yak again, Orange452 again < Thanks Thingy

Depends.The code/formula for bilinear texture filter is GML incompatible I believe. I'm not really talking about resources.I can enhance GM games by using Different kinds of anti-aliasing (from 1x2 to x16), but I don't know how to force texture filters.Accordingly texture filtering might increase 2D/3D image quality.Examples are Bilinear,Trilinear,Bicubic, and nearest neighbor texture filtering.Anisotropic can easily be applied seperately.

Animated Backgrounds are really ****ing easy to do.

You need like one script with 2 lines of code...

Yes, but it would be nice if Game Maker was able to load animated Backgrounds and play them without additional code.
