I've uploaded version 108.24 to the downloads area with the following changes



This update is mainly to address the AdMob SDK on Android expiring on the 1st August and the Facebook SDK not having the new permission to get the friends list. For the new AdMob SDK you will need to delete the existing GoogleAdMobAdsSDK-6.1.0.jar file from your projects and import the new "google-play-services" project included in the download. You will then need to add it to the "Library" section of your project in the same way that the facebook project is added.

Edit: The download had a debug file left in it that caused a shader error message, 108.23b fixes this.

Edit: For some reason the tier 2 debug lib produced an error on Windows, 108.24 fixes this.

Do you suggest one should release their app with 108.23 or wait for v2?

Do the ios & Android templates for T2 108.23 work out of the box?

thanks

If you don't need any of the features of v2 then the 108.23 core is more stable. The v2 compiler might be more stable than the old one (particularly when dealing with types and arrays) but if you do find a bug in v2 it will help make it better in the long run.

The full templates that use the Facebook SDK were tested briefly to make sure they still ran. The lite templates I haven't tested.

I traced the error to a debug file that was left in the build folder and got included by mistake. I've uploaded 108.23b that fixes this.

Thank you Paul! I'm SO pleased that V1 hasn't completely died what with all the V2 efforts.

Is there any news when the remaining unfinished commands in V1 will get completed? i.e. sensor (Gyroscope), GPS etc. It feels like I've been waiting for these for years... Oh wait. hehe.

Unfortunately those were never intended to be V1 commands, they were part of an Intel Ultrabook update that got added to the core, so are now expected to work across platforms. There are a few that are common and well documented like GPS latitude/longitude and Gyro rotation but the sheer number of commands that would have to be researched and tested across all platforms and multiple devices has put it at the bottom of my pile. Once the V2 goals are out the way I'll see what I can do.

Has anyone got Facebook to work? When I run the Facebook login it opens a window with a Facebook logo, but nothing seems to happen... The same code worked with 21 on another app.

If you are using the AppGameKit player it will only work with App ID 358083327620324. To make it work with your own app you will need to create a new app (either with eclipse or the online tool) with a package name that matches the one specified in your Facebook app settings and use that App ID.

I had done all that. I had the correct ID, the correct key hashes.

What I had also done was comment out the FacebookSetup command.

So sorry for the mistake.

Hey Paul don't forget that if you need something new that you don't wanna spend too time about (obj c code i mean) don't hesitate to ask.

Been going a bit nuts trying to solve a PauseMusic() problem. It works in one place of the program and not in another, no matter how I switch the mp3's around either. The problem only shows up on android also, in windows PauseMusic() works every time.


Edit 57: Narrowed it down a bit; the PauseMusic() works every time on some android devices and some not. Doesn't work on Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2 which of course are the ones I tried on, so I tried to find something else that was wrong, but when a friend tested it on his Galaxy S4 mini and the music pauses when it should - things just get.. gnarly.

I've uploaded 108.24 that fixes a bug with the tier 2 debug lib on Windows, if you don't use tier 2 in debug mode then there is no need to update.

Music is automatically resumed if paused when an app is resumed from idle on Android.

This may be related to the issues with music I've been having on some android devices. Not that anyone cares, just saying.

lilpissywilly, there is a command that lets you know when you have returned from the background: GetResumed()

In the main loop of your app, check this first, before anything else when the app is in the main play. If GetResumed() returns 1, then you can do things like pause files that were supposed to be paused.

Cheers,
Ancient Lady

Sure, but why would resuming an app change any state in that app, and is that not an issue even if I can work around it?

The fact is music seems fairly broken on android, pauseMusic() works sometimes and sometimes not, depending on model or probably more likely firmware. And this with very simple code that works flawlessly on windows.

It's all very weird, and very hard to debug and troubleshoot. It's not due to the file, even weirder is that pausing works in the main menu part of the app every time when I'm just adding it there for testing purposes but not the game, again, on some phones.

The problem is that there is no single thing that is Android. It's a beast with many heads. That which works on one device may well not work on another. For example, (not AGK) the recording subsystem on the Kindle Fire HD does not work correctly, despite perfectly legitimate calls to it.

-- Jim - When is there going to be a release?

Right.

Well oddly enough most stuff seems to work like it should on this "beast". I've tested the music issue on two very common devices and had the same result.

I'll probably remove all traces of music pausing from the app.

APK-Android
I have tried it on hudle,galaxy tab 2.1 and samsung s2&3 all the same, No sound(sound&music),
I have only recently received the agk 1.824 update Is there anything;any1 can think of why I am having this issue and others are not.

I have compiled it on widows vista & win 7 086 & 64 bit.

The other issue is I managed to get 1 of the apps to work then changed loads of stuff when I re compiled an apk it now wont work, it installs but when it runs after 2 seconds it crashes/exits out?

I have a valid code for Google. I checked by compiling an other app that runs still.With NO SOUND.
I am getting frustrated now its rare I cant fix issues on my own I have been a member for years and never need help, But now I need it turns out my posts are not even showing.

Why AppGameKit 2.0 is being developed beats me AppGameKit has lots of problems still. I have always upto now been extremely happy with the products it seems that money is becoming more important than the product.

AGK 2.0 should be AGK

Palmer, with no funding AppGameKit could not continue to be developed, that's why AGK2 was done, for Kickstarter

I have now noticed this thread, after i posted [href]http://betaforum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=211810&b=41

By the way, what does
mean?

The "google-play-services" folder inside apps ?
And how i import it?
Can that be done without struggling with eclipse?
I think i really missed something..

I tried to run the iOS template but I got these errors. I thought there was a Readme that could fix this but I couldn't find it.

If you follow the instructions in "IDE\platform\apple\Source\Social Plugins\FacebookSDK\Urgent_ReadMe_Now.txt" does that fix the error?

Are you sure you're getting this error with v1? This command has changed in v2, you only define width and height now.
