Hey guys, I've tried to make just a little simple ad to be displayed while running on one application
.

I've tried to read more info on
- > https://www.appgamekit.com/documentation/Reference/Advert/CreateAdvert.htm
To see if I'm wrong with the code somewhere , but not here

Also, tried to read this :
-> https://www.appgamekit.com/documentation/Reference/Advert/SetAdMobDetails.htm

First question . No ad will be displayed while clicking the "Run" to test my build on windows?

Also after a short search of the forum , I found a code for AdMob ( didn't worked for me )

+ Code Snippet

SetAdMobDetails("ca-app-pub-7************1/1******9")
CreateAdvert(0,1,1,0)
SetAdvertVisible(1)
RequestAdvertRefresh()
do
    Print( ScreenFPS() )
    Sync()
loop

After reading a little bit of more information I made the following code for the test

+ Code Snippet

// Created: 2016-10-10
 
// show all errors
SetErrorMode(2)
 
// set window properties
SetWindowTitle( "ads" )
SetWindowSize( 800, 600, 0 )
 
// set display properties
SetVirtualResolution( 1024, 768 )
SetOrientationAllowed( 1, 1, 1, 1 )
SetSyncRate( 30, 0 ) // 30fps instead of 60 to save battery
 
 
        SetAdMobDetails("ca-app-pub-7************1/1******9") // 
        //Create and Position the Advert
        CreateAdvert(0, 1, 1, 1)
         
        //Make Advert Visible
        SetAdvertVisible ( 1 )
        //Reload/Refresh Advert, call occasionally
       
 
DisplayAdCount = 0
do
     
if DisplayAdCount = 0
    ShowFullscreenAdvertAdMob()
    DisplayAdCount = 1
endif
 
 
    Print( ScreenFPS() )
    Sync()
loop

The SetAdMobDetails was created using the apps.admob.com

Where I am wrong? Or it's a bug somewhere?
It's something I'm missing in the code?
Also i've tested on Android device and still the ads are not displayed.

It's because i wanted to create a banner ? or what should i select in order to have the ads displayed ?
The application has not been published on the gplay . This should be the problem? The un-linked to app system ?

Thanks

I researched a little, now the little banners are working perfectly , but the full screen ads are not displayed , however the "Print(GetFullscreenAdvertLoadedAdMob()) " command returns 1 after a few seconds . Technically that represents that there is an AdMob interstitial ad preloaded and ready to be displayed ( information taken from here : https://www.appgamekit.com/documentation/Reference/Advert/GetFullscreenAdvertLoadedAdMob.htm )

But even if i wait something like 1 - 2 -3 minutes, no ad is not displayed ( video / text / image ). It's just blank.

Yes , I did configure the on the Admob the Ad format and the Frequency capping (per user) to be Interstitial and Ad unit-level: No cap / App-level: No cap without any ad restriction.

    endif
	print(GetFullscreenAdvertLoadedAdMob())
    Print( ScreenFPS() )
    Print( GetDeviceType() )
    Sync()
loop

Is this code running correctly and the devices is having problems?

Thank you for your time !
