  A benefit of the licensed version is you can organise objects in to folders.

  Closing; please report bugs in CocoonJS to Ludei, we can't fix them.

  This is 100% certainly a graphics card driver bug. There is nothing we can do to fix it. If you definitely have the latest version of your graphics card driver, and it's still broken, all you can do is complain to your graphics card vendor.

  WildShroom - this thread is over a year old and its information is mostly irrelevant. Pretty much everything has changed since it was posted. You'll definitely want to use the CocoonJS or directCanvas exporters instead of PhoneGap.

  We currently have to export to iOS/Android via third parties since they have developed the necessary technologies and we don't really have time to come up with them ourselves.

  Where specifically are you having trouble? If you describe in more detail what you are doing and where you get stuck, we may be able to offer help.

  Also, you might want to get in touch with appMobi or Ludei. We have no control over their systems, and I'm sure some feedback about points you get stuck or find difficult would be valuable feedback for them.

  This is not supported at this time I'm afraid.

  You should definitely avoid telling people they can't play the game if possible - performance may be worse and audio support may be more basic, but you should still let them play the game.

  If your game absolutely must have WebGL effects to even work at all, use the "Effects supported" system condition.

  Just a random tip: if you experience crashes, especially when creating a new project or opening an existing project, try disabling GPU acceleration in the VM if you can. Crashes at those points are always graphics card driver bugs, but in a VM it means buggy GPU virtualisation.

  gerris - as I said earlier, it's neither a bug in Construct 2 nor in the browser. It's the graphics card driver that's at fault, so updating it might help.

  All platforms with touchscreens, apart from the stock browser in Android 2.x, support multitouch. Even on Android 2.x you should be able to use CocoonJS to get multitouch support.

  Tom's working on gradually rolling out the new site design (front page/forum style) across the whole site. It's a lot of work maintaining a large website!

  tap - I tried that, and also tried without using DC - either crashed or didn't work. The bug I sent in covers both cases I think. The built-in AJAX object already contains code to try this workaround when in the appMobi container, but it either crashes or does nothing if you try to use it.

  tap - I tested making an AJAX request from appMobi to an address that the server explicitly marked as allowed for cross-domain requests (Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *) and it either crashes appMobi or just does nothing. I'm pretty sure it's something appMobi need to fix. I submitted a bug a while ago.

  The best solution is just disable 'Use mouse input' in the Touch object and handle mouse and touch input separately.
