I'm guessing that's because you are not using mmf2's HWA version, which you can't because your copy is illegal.
Tough luck, I guess you'll have to buy a legal copy, just like everyone else. They don't hand over free copies of mmf2 for some reason, you are supposed to pay for it. If you can't afford it there are several free solutions similar to mmf2 like Construct, GameMaker etc.. Not to sound like an asshole, but I don't think anyone here is wealthy, and if you have money for a computer and an internet connection it's not like you live in actual poverty so that's no excuse at all.

The foreach object is powerful in that it can let you do some manipulations of the object scope list in O that otherwise would take O(N^2) time over a list of N objects of the same class. But at the same times, its unfortunately a bit counterintuitive and buggy in how it executes its looping (it won't preserve the stack frame, and finishes executing the line of events before it starts the loop instead of breaking the line, going through the loop, and returning, like virtually all other loop/function/etc in MMF2)
Hope this helps explain some coding mysteries!
If an extension requires validation of your copy of MMF2 such as in the bonus packs, it's illegal to distribute them in any other way. With that said, I hope your link isn't providing him with something otherwise unobtainable with his copy of MMF2.
The problem with something like MMF2, is that it appeals to kids/teens, and while their parents may have money, it doesn't necessarily follow that the kids do too (some parents are just really tight) and MMF2 is not cheap.
Obviously you could say that about a lot of things, but with Clickteam products, I think it's a little different in that kids who use pirated copies to begin with, will actually pay for genuine copies of future products when they have the money.
Personally, I used the 30-day demo of TGF1 for about 2 years (just kept turning back the clock on the computer), but started buying legit copies thereafter.
A lot of people have argued that Clickteam should release a free version with limited features, and in a way, I guess a pirated copy of MMF2 is just that.
Haha, all this talk of piracy being bad just smacks of a little hypocracy. Sure, i know it's wrong and we should never encourage it, and i no longer feel the need to partake in it now i earn a living, but as a kid i did it like it was free (ell, it was i guess!) and i bet most of us on here have done it somewhere along the line (forgive me if you haven't ever, but seriously keep looking, i bet you broke some copyright laws somewhere down the line!)
Let's give the kids a break and nurture their desire to use MMF! Perhaps Clickteam should get in on the act and do more to get kids on tight budgets interested in their products!
And as OMC said, don't go shouting about it if you do pirate stuff!
Yeah, I'm pretty sure everyone over the age of about 20, has taped songs off the radio (or maybe made a mix tape for their girlfriend ), if nothing else.
OMC's probably right that it's not particularly smart to tell everyone you're using pirated software, though - and just so you know, if Clickteam happen to come across a file you uploaded somewhere, they CAN tell if it was made using a copy you got off the internet.
Plus it's breaking TDC Site Rule #1 - as is this very post, come to think of it...
Typical off topic reply from me : Mix tapes, that takes me back. I find cassetes oddly charming for some reason and my car still has a cassette/FM radio .
