Great to see all these fixes coming in, although no mention of the Tier 2 iOS templates . Does this mean that I'm the only one they're not compiling for?

Glad to hear the plugin system is on its way for Linux and OS X.

OK so I just grabbed the latest update on my Mac to test it and I'm still getting the errors. Specifically I'm seeing

I've been getting this for at least the last couple of releases. Can't say when it was introduced through, because my project had been based on an older version for a while before that and I hadn't been updating it with every AppGameKit update. I get the same error in both the template and the lite template. In both cases, I can see the GoogleMobileAds framework in its folder on disk, I can see it in the Build Phases > Link Binary With Libraries list, and I can see the search path is listed in the target's Build Settings > Search Paths > Framework Search Paths, so it's not obvious to me what the problem is. However this is happening with a clean download of the template left in its install folder, without any further modifications from me.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You wouldn't believe how refreshing it is to see regular updates! I've been a long time user of another game dev kit/tool that's pretty much given up updating their software except only when the operating systems or ad providers make a change that break their tool.

Keep up the good work!

Added: My fault! I didn't change the Core.cpp!

Windows 10 (at least) bug. Appears since V2017.03.31. In windowed mode (1366x768 - just tested on it) I have two 2 pixels black borders from the top and the bottom.
And the game-window become bigger than in V2017.02.28 by 10 pixels in width and hight (in V2017.02.28 window was 1366x768 in V2017.03.31 become 1376x778).

Added: But if I start game from fullscreen mode and than change it to windowed - everything is fine (1366x768)!

Added: My fault! I didn't change the Core.cpp!

P.S. Thank you for the XP support Paul!!!

Another question: may I have MaximizeBox with SetWindowAllowResize(0). I use to use it as easiest way to set my window to the fullscreen mode (changing the Core.cpp)... But now I can not do anything with it...

Quote: "ld: framework not found GoogleMobileAds"

I had something similar happen in the past where the framework looked like it was added correctly but said it couldn't be found. Removing and re-adding it seemed to fix it, not sure why. I don't know why it would be happening for you and not me with the same project and files.

Quote: "may I have MaximizeBox with SetWindowAllowResize(0)"

Since people specifically asked for the opposite, and it makes sense to disable maximizing when disabling resizing, I don't think we can do that. You could maximize it in code with MaximizeWindow though.

SetWindowAllowResize( 0 ) still does nothing on Linux Mint 18.1.
I also get graphical glitches on blank parts of the screen (parts which are not covered by any sprites) when resizing the window. Although that could be my graphics card.

There's thread about it here: https://forum.thegamecreators.com/thread/219124

It is currently an empty function on Linux, it's on my list of things to do, just need to work out how to do it.

I've spent 4 hours to find the bug...
if (msg.message == 799) continue; // this is sent just after a change to fullscreen mode and for some reason sets it back to windowed mode
Because of this line - I can not move my window and cann't close it or minimize after I turn to windowed mode from fullscreen mode. The window become freezed.

It all seems very odd. I tried removing and adding the framework again but it didn't help. However I then deleted all the templates in the apps folder and installed them again from AGK. On opening the projects, they were still showing the error, but then when I recompiled again, they worked. Most odd. Oh well, so long as it's working now I guess! Thanks for your help anyway.

Tested with the following code which works for me

I don't know what message 799 does, it doesn't seem to be documented by Microsoft, but I did a quick test to see if that line is still necessary and it appears that a recent fix may have also fixed this issue. So you should be able to remove the line that ignores this message anyway.

All? You mean objects that use SetObject3DPhysicsCanSleep with mode 1. I've fixed this for the next version.

My code doesn't work properly with this line. So I'll just comment it and will test later on many machines...
