How do you make a level end when there are no enemy's left in game maker 8 pro?
I don't know much about Game Maker, tried to use it, but i was ten at the time and failed miserably ._.
Well, from my short experience from other game making tools (game factory, etc.), you could make each enemy adds +1 to a counter when the player kills him, and make the counter end the level when it reaches the number of present enemies.
Example: Imagine a level has 8 enemies. Each one you kill adds +1 to a counter, let's name it DeathCount. DeathCount starts at 0. With each enemy you kill, DeathCount goes up by 1. When DeathCount reaches 8, which is the total number of enemies in the level, it triggers an event that makes the level end.
Don't know if this helps, as i have no experience with GM, but at least i tried :)

What is the name of the major for making 3D models or designing 3D characters?
The main programs used are Autodesk Maya and Autodesk 3DS Max. Max is used mainly in games, whereas Maya is used mainly in films. These are pretty expensive though, and I'd recommend you get Blender (which is free) if you're new to 3D. Cinema 4D is also used a fair bit.
How do you make lives in game maker 8?
I will explain how to make your own lives variable; granting you better control over them.
Create event:
lives_left = 3; //Replace 3 with the lives you start with.
health_left = 100; //Replace 100 with the health you start with.
health_max = 100; //Replace 100 with maximum health available.
lives_max = 3; //Replace this 3 the maximum amount of lives.
Step event:
if(lives_left < .1) { game_end(); /*Replace game_end(); with how your game ends*/ }
if(health_left < .1) { /*How you die goes here*/ }
if(health_left > health_max) { health_left = health_max }
if(lives_left > lives_max) { lives_left = lives_max; }
Whatever event makes you get hurt:
health_left -= .1; //Replace .1 with how much damage you take.
This works by simple math; if you have too many lives, you lose that extra life, to have the maximum amount. If you get hurt, it removes some of your health variable. If you have 0 health left, you lose a life. (Set health back to the maximum when you die though, or you'll infinitely die) If you have 0 lives left, the game ends.
This system allows for healing, by health_left += 20; /*Replace 20 with how much to heal*/, allows you to increase lives max, increase how many lives, and allows you to increase how much health you can have.
