I've uploaded version 2.0.18 with the following changes


This is mostly a bug fix release so no Windows or Mac export in this version.

Steam update on Mac dont work , it ends up with a "DISK READ ERROR" , i checked the steam download folder and the state_325180_325182.patch is there, and "325180" folder got the new Players and AGK2.app , im also able to browse the updates inside the AGK2.app , so something must be missing somewhere ?

Tried to clean the cached and re download in steam with same result.

best regards Preben Eriksen,

I got the same thing, the Steam log said that the file was locked. I right clicked AppGameKit and deleted local content, it then updated without issue.

now it returns 208 for all chars of cyrillic alphabet which I've tested excepting non-capital 'ё' (209 for it), please see this.

i like the new fog commands.... but..

can we get a command to change the position of the fog center instead of using the camera position as default? This would work great for an overhead 3d game where the fog center could be positioned where the action is (main player is). I understand this would be simular to just using a light but i think the fog setting would work even better then a light since it has a start distance and falloff distance built into it that we can change.

I would guess it uses standard OpenGL fog which will be based on camera position.

Thanks for the update.

PlayMusic looping still has a gap. Will this be addressed any time soon?

CreateObjectFromHeightMap()

Any possibility to reduce polycount on this one?
Reducing the size of the object does not reduce the polycount. if you make it one mesh only, there are over 8 million tris to render. way too much for mobile devices... please add an option for "max tris used".
i know splitting the mesh reduces the drawn polys, but it adds extra surfaces which will slow down your device(s) rendering speed.

The polycount is determined by the resolution of the height map

Hi

Thank you for this "new version" (Sorry, i haven't tested it yet)

I have just installed this version today, and I have some issues (same with 2.017):
- I can't use the broadcast features (with big project)
- I can't use the debug mode, with big project (with my project dragonia) ; it freeze at 35%

While testing my game on Windows XP, I discovered that the AGK2 interpreter crashes while exiting. This seems to be related to code introduced in 2.0.17.

I used the default new project created by AGK2 for testing.

2.0.18
- Program runs. FPS displays correctly.
- Crash on exit "The instruction at 0x7c90100b referenced memory at 0x00001078. The memory could not be read."
2.0.17
- Startup: "Uncaught exception: Choose Format Failed."
- Immediately crashes with "The instruction at 0x7c90100b referenced memory at 0x00001078. The memory could not be read."
2.0.16
- No errors or crash. FPS displays correctly.

I will mention that I'm testing in a VirtualBox VM so that could be affecting things, but then, it used to work so I don't know.

EDIT: This is Tier 1 and only on Windows XP.

From my experience AppGameKit works best if you have a main loop with a single sync command that is looped through each frame. Doing anything else can give errors on exit.

That's weird. Doesn't crash for me. So I wonder if it doesn't have something to do with VirtualBox. Only Paul could help you now I guess.

Try uninstalling, redownloading and reinstalling AGK.

I currently use AppGameKit v108.24 and would like to upgrade to v2.0.18, is there a way to upgrade or do I need to purchase the new version. I have been working on a game for about 2 years and would really like the new Google Play Services in v2.0.18. If I need to buy the new one that's cool but I want to make sure that I get v2.0.18.

You will need to buy the new version.

It is currently 65% off on Steam, and cheaper to buy the beginners bundle with guide and resource bundle

Is the Bundled Version on Steam the newest version (V2.0.18) because when the mouse is hovering over it the release date says Nov. 2014.

When you buy AppGameKit you get the latest version, which is version 2. You also get free upgrades of v2. So yes you get 2.0.18.
