Did mine today, but just a reminder to all who haven't made the jump yet, if you were on an old EXPRESS membership tomorrow 31st December 2010 is your last chance to upgrade your membership to PRO for a full year at only $99!

Goodluck

    I would've done it already today, if it wasn't for Apple dragging their feet to deposit iTunes Connect funds into my account.

    Hey! There you are. I don't remember seeing you post for a while.

    I'm trying to upgrade and it has me stuck at the loading screen"You are being forwarded to the payment system"
  • DreamLabDreamLab Member Posts: 2,127

    It's not too late... I just did it.

    On my other account it showed up as $499 as well...don't know what's up then. Luckily I got it on my main account so I'm happy

    I Recommend to Buy IT! We could have a LOT of improvements for 2011 that will definitely be PRO (At least the best of them)

    LOL! I love your optimism but that is purely speculation...

    Without a product roadmap (which GameSalad seems unlikely to do - please prove me wrong), we don't know what features will be released, which will be free and which will be pro only.

    Only time will tell.

    It SAID $499 for me to, but when I logged into paypal to pay it said $99.
  • DreamLabDreamLab Member Posts: 2,127
    Wait did you log into paypal right then?

    That is odd... I went to the link in this thread and it told me $99 up front.

    But then again, I am still trying to get it to show me the new behaviours...

    I think they need to really get this process in order.
  • DreamLabDreamLab Member Posts: 2,127
    It still says 499$

    You need to do it on a mac using safari or it stalls.

    Exactly.

    I've just gone Professional for $99. Upgrade link and PayPal checkout worked for me.

    Let's make this one pay itself off in a few days' time. With the new year, I hope to kick programming into high gear.

    You should still be able to upgrade, today 31st should be the last day. Not sure if the 31st timeframe is in your own timezone, or where the GameSalad team are, so don't leave this until the last minute.

    Use the link I posted at the top:
    http://gamesalad.com/membership/legacy

    The page will show the Pro is $499, but if you look down the right hand side of the page there is the following statement:
    "Upgrade Now! As a current Express Member, you can upgrade to the new Professional Membership for just $99 for the first year! $99 for the First Year! Get iAds, the ability to link directly to promotional titles or sites, and Priority Technical Support at a special discount rate."

    People have reported problems when trying to use Firefox, so I would try Safari if possible. I upgraded yesterday without any problems.

    Good luck, and here's to a great GS 2011.

    If I buy the legacy upgrade today does my new membership start today or does it start in 8 months when my current membership expires? Would I lose the remaining time I have if so that's not right and GS should give me and others who purchased memberships before all the price changing happened more time.
  • JCFordJCFord Member Posts: 785
    @Thrstn if you decide to upgrade from Express to Pro it will cost you $99 and your express membership will be replaced with the Pro today with 12 months to run, it will not include any time left you had on your express membership.

    Remember this is optional, you don't have to upgrade. But, you need to decide if being 4 month ( 1/3 so $33) into your express membership is worth it, but remember that the Pro membership is normally $499, and I'm sure new features will be added in the upcoming 12 months that will be Pro only!

    Good luck

    @1UpGamestudio, just manually fixed your account. Server communication errors again. Re-login before you open your project.
  • 1UpGamestudio1UpGamestudio Member Posts: 213
    thanks, now works!
  • JCFordJCFord Member Posts: 785
    @codemonkey I think i have the same issue, I have upgraded to PRO yesterday and it shows as pro, but can't see the Pro behaviours?
  • firemaplegamesfiremaplegames Member Posts: 3,211
    JCF, you should see a separate folder under your regular behaviors folder called Pro Behaviors. Is it not there for you?
  • Cee3pee0Cee3pee0 Member, PRO Posts: 194
    I too upgraded my account last night and have re-logged in and out several times and am still seeing no pro behaviors. @codemonkey could you take a look?
    cheers! happy new year everyone.
  • THRSTNTHRSTN Member Posts: 178
    My problem is I just spent 100 dollars on something that a couple months later was givin as free and now Gamesalad is asking for another 100 to "give me" iAds (which I'm not sure I'll use or get my money out of) and URL links (but not ingame purchase) AND telling me that the remaining time on my membership I JUST paid for will not pass onto the new membership they offer for an additional 99 dollars. I'm probably going to upgrade because despite all this I do enjoy using Gamesalad and I understand they are a young company and I want to support them but I really wish they had come out and said "hey everyone who just gave us 99 bucks a couple of months before you needed to and have over half a year left on your membership we"ll go ahead and give you this update as a we are sorry for changing up our pricing all of a sudden on you" and before you all post "that's in the agreement you signed that they can do that" I know I know. It doesnt make it right or a nice way to treat you customers. Again I LIKE GAMESALAD I'm just not happy to shell out more money so soon... And don't even get me started on the pause feature already.

    I'm in the same boat. Whenever you can check my account I'd be appreciative.

    @AkioAkemi, @JCFord you all are already Professional upgraded. Please make sure to log in BEFORE opening a project file.

    @Cee3pee0 I don't see a completed payment from you. Please email support (at) gamesalad.com, to take this case off the forums.
