First, what version of AppGameKit do you have installed on your Windows box?

Next, what version of the Player is on your Android device?

Cheers,

The Player really needs to be the same version as your PC.

sdl, what version(s) are you working with?

Then TGC might want to wait for these new releases until after the stores have approved the new players for them.
That way we would have the thing when we need it, because if the players have trouble getting approved, then all of our code collects dust as everyone else move forward.

v1074 couldn't do files? (i was away since 1036)

Don't get me wrong, I love all of these new features, and I had to stop progress before because of functionality that was not there but is now.
So, now I can do what I need to do, and my game is complete (for the PC) in it's 1st version.

THANKS TGC for all the hard work improving AppGameKit!!!

I 'll keep polishing the thing whilst I wait for the v1076 player, until I hit a memory cap or something. (has it been submitted yet? does that happen at the same time a new version is released?)
Anyway, it will be nice to be able to test the text file needed for a simple high score system on the device.

Athough its not currently available on Google Play, you can get a beta version of the new player from your 'My Products' section. Just download it and install straight to your device.

Funnell7 is correct. Conjured, download the player from the TGC Your Products page and that might fix your problem.

It is not my device (belongs to someone else) so that is not an option.
I'll just have to wait until it is approved for Android.
Thanks for the help though.

Download it and send it to the person with the device you are testing on? Is that an option?

No
They can only download from the Android store at this point.
I'll see what I can do though.
Thanks
