• Figured out how to fix the problem with being unable to modify code by uninstalling the program, deleting the previously saved preferences in regedit, and reinstalling the program. no problems noticed.
• found fixed versions of the code i was previously using and used the fixed code.
• i still can not seem to get the 3d walls to work so starting tomorrow i am going to simplify my project into what i said previously as a 2d-pseudo 3d point and click adventure

- Returned to working on game in game maker in 3d with some new knowledge and a updated source for assitance on creation. 
- if i really can not create the game then i decided im going to make it psudo-2d similar to old point and click games and with a first person perspective

-constantly keep comign up with odd problem of whenever i try to open a action in a objects event box the window doesn't show any where on screen up but the windows tab says that the action window is open.

-due to game maker studio's errors i took a brief break and decided to learn how to make a top-down scrolling shooter game to see if perhaps the error is on my end and not the software's.

• silliness is abundant with odd scrolling things that have not been finished
• progress going along at a fairly decent rate with no errors

• continued reading PDF tutorial and following its lead in creating a fps. 
• still had trouble figuring out how to change the direction of the player so i requested assistance from my friend Jonathan McMeans (a junior in Computer Science at wright state university) 
• figured out how to fix the player movement so that it works for up , down, left, and right
• need to figure out how to fix  broken textures, make it so the player can look with the mouse, add items that the player can interact with, and add triggered events.
