An update to Buff's Arduino DLL

Arduino / Serial Communication DLL

Quick links: documentation · forum topic
Platforms: Windows, Windows (YYC)​
Versions: GM:S 1.4, GMS2.2, GMS2.3/GM2022+

This is a slight update to Buff's Arduino DLL.

What's new

• Windows x64 support
  (in other words, works on the current runtime)
• More read/write functions
  Now with bytes, ints, floats, and buffer I/O
• Fixed a few memory leaks
  Previously extension was leaking a bit of memory whenever it returned a string.
  I don't think anyone noticed.
• The DLL is now smaller
  Not like it matters or anything.

Support

I regret to inform in advance that I can't answer your Arduino questions.
I don't even own an Arduino!

This version was made by copy-pasting the published source code into one of my Visual Studio templates and adding more functions that call the same underlying functions - except, you know, slightly more conveniently.

Then, someone that sort of knows what they're doing confirmed that the DLL still works, and here you have it.

GameMaker ≤ 8.1

This version of the extension cannot be used in pre-Studio versions of GameMaker because it's now using undefined and buffers, but also the demand for GM≤8.1 extensions is low enough that I don't have a solid workflow like I do with GM:S/GMS2/GM2022+.
