Compiling Error Message in GameMaker Studio 2

Compiling Errors in GameMaker Studio 2

 

If you are a GameMaker Studio 2 user and receive the following message when attempting to compile a project or activities:

Saving project to: /Users/laurenc2111/GameMakerStudio2/ZulamaPinball_Start/ZulamaPinball_Start.yyp

“/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/Current/Commands/mono” /Users/laurenc2111/.local/share/Cache/runtimes/runtime-2.2.1.287/bin/Igor.exe -options=”/var/folders/0j/0cl4q6754sv3jy4217ks2c8c241kck/GameMakerStudio2/GMS2TEMP/build.bff”

The following article will walk you through installing Mono v5.10.1.57 to resolve this. This error appears because of an issue related to the version of the Mono SDK you have installed on your computer. Using GMS2 2.2.1 requires Mono v5.10.1.57  for building any projects.

*Please refer to the Required SDKs article to ensure you have the correct set-up for compiling.

  1. If you are using v2.2.1 of GameMaker Studio 2 and Mono v5.10.1.57 fails to be installed automatically, or the previous error message appears, click on the following installer link:
