Visual Studio Community 2019 can be found here. (Win 7 + SP1 is the minimum required to run GM anyway, so you should already have this.) If you do not have SP1 installed, Visual Studio will refuse to install.
#VISUAL BASIC EXPRESS 2015 GAME DEVELOPMENT WINDOWS 7#
Please note that all versions of Visual Studio require you to be running at least Windows 7 with SP1. You can find the specifics on which versions of Visual Studio are supported in which versions of GM on the Required SDKs FAQ.

Nothing about this Option changes whether you require Visual Studio or not.īefore you can build any YYC versions of your projects you will be required to download and install Visual Studio for Windows (if you are using the Mac IDE then this will need to be downloaded and installed on the PC used as your remote worker). When we refer to 64bit builds in this FAQ, this is what we mean.

Just as a quick note, starting with GMS 2.3.1, you can now toggle building a 64bit package in Game Options > Windows, as you can see here: However, if you wish to compile using Windows YYC, or if you are using the Mac IDE to do your builds, then you will need to do a couple of additional steps. When compiling for Windows VM on a PC, GameMaker requires no further setup, as VM builds do not require Visual Studio or any other external tools to be installed on your PC. The YYC target gives much greater optimisation and a corresponding performance boost, especially with logic-heavy games, but be aware projects will take more time to compile. The performance of this target is less optimised than YYC, but it is faster to compile and offers the ability to run in debug mode (if you target YYC and try to do a debug run, GameMaker will notify you that the build will be completed using VM instead).

The VM option will build your game and use interpreted code within a special YoYo Runner.

Please note, the Remote Worker which Mac IDE users could previously use to do their Windows builds remotely can only be found if you are using GMS2 2.3.7 (Dec 2021) or older. In this article we give the required steps to get the Windows platform up and running in the Windows IDE. GameMaker's Creator subscription (and above) comes with three desktop export platforms: Windows, Mac and Ubuntu.
