Added layer effect support in 1.0.57 - as one might guess, any new room editor feature has to be manually accounted for to work in GMLive.
Viewing post in Support for GMLive Room 2.3.7 Layer FX?
Yup, completely understand. I can't thank you enough for the tools you create and develop.
I will have time this evening to look into the recent update - quickly testing on my coffee break now, importing the latest version that I've acquired from the YoYo Market place, re-importing the updated plug-in files into my project (that was working last night with other room updates without crashing, but no FX updating), I'm now receiving error;

@YellowAfterlife finally had some time to look into the latest update. Following the return errors I was able to get up and running fairly quickly, I appreciate the guidance. I do run into a crash if I change the "Effect_1" : Effect Type parameter from one effect to a different effect. Is this a current limitation, or have I perhaps missed a step?
Return error below - but I can confirm that I can alter other parameters within an active Effect Type without issue.

I recall reading on YoYo forums recently that they're also planning further flexibility to layers so that objects/layers may be assigned to them - so it will be interesting to watch how this feature evolves.
Thanks again for such an awesome tool.
As documentation for fx_ says, you cannot create effects at runtime if their types didn’t exist in the project when you compiled it. If you want to play around with effect types rather than parameters, make a never-to-be-visited room that has layers with every single effect type on them, and get rid of it when you’re done.
