  • I haven't had any audio problems. personally. I did have audio issues with some plugins and XDK.. but not with cocoon io

  • Putting the request in on their forum should give others the opportunity to reflect your feelings. I'm sure if everyone or even a lot of people.. were to resonate that it IS important they would adjust things accordingly. I think it would be great, but i have yet to even mess with C2's audio effects at all..

    audio is pretty unimportant for mobile.. most people play games with sound off or very turned down.. music often adds a lot of bulk to a game. it's shame because i like writing music, but when faced with efficiency and the reality of mobile experiences.. it becomes hard to invest much time / energy / money into sound.

  • well if they don't see the value in it it's not an oversight.. if it's not on their roadmap they left it off for some reason.

    honestly i haven't seen much difference between webview and canvas+ maybe file size differences.. but no major performance differences. if you need better audio maybe that's an option? sacrafice some canvas+ benefit. plugins should all still work with webview right? well other than the canvas+ plugin.

  • you could ask them to see what it would take to add it.

  • I now know the issue is with the IAP plugin. Is anyone currently using any projects that use the IAP plugin? I am going to update and try quick.. not sure to know how often to do updates with Cocoon IO.

    NOTE: I did catch wind that the Admob fix that Andy shared is merged with the official plugin so it i'll update for that reason too. hope it fixes it.

    I don't think it is C2.. i'm 99% sure it's something that changed in Cocoon IO somewhere..

  • what bug is that? i've had no audio problems.. other than needing to pause music while doing video ads.

  • yea maybe so. we'll see. i'm still using the stable version for now. i'll try it out

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • — that's how you start with anything. get something working.. then build on that. Right now I'm dealing with a black screen issue that is not related to the three usual suggestions.. figuring out what it is. what's strange is an older version of the same game doesn't do this.. very odd.

  • Works nice. good job!

  • I'm sure if they see a business opportunity they will pursue it or need someone to help them see the opportunity.

  • yea feel bad for xdk.. it's not terrible.. it has some cool features.. but yea the methods of handling plugins / troubleshooting projects is awful.. sometimes.. even if it can work.. after a few failed attempts deleting/creating new projects.. re-importing git paths.. etc.. it's just a time vacuum.. do one thing wrong, not sure what.. and have to basically blow everything out.

    but really.. what CORDOVA really needs is an honest to god simulator.. a way to test f'n plugins IN a computer.. not on some device.. so absurd that you can't test banner ads.. IAP.. etc.. without putting them on a real device.. a terrible debugging process..

  • wizdigitech well we appreciate your efforts!

  • wizdigitech are you directly part of appodeal? just curious how connected are with them. Just a fan of the service?

  • everyone yea buildbox is very much a cash grab.. they actually made a prior game engine which also cost thousands.. it is still in need of features and support so you can see a pattern.. make a new engine.. show how you can make games like the big boys.. get rich.. all for only $2675... total scam.

    Yes of course we want to show you how you can make hundreds of thousands of dollars like the 4-5 developers we interview making ridiculous money.. we want you to make another game to compete with our games so you can learn all our secrets..

  • yea totally understood.. you can waste a lot of time trying to find the perfect revenue options.. so many services.. even we have numerous options.. though most of them are fraught with errors..

    that's why i just go with what works and don't look back. sure one service might pay more than the other, but until a game hits some kind of reasonably serious number it's pointless.. as long as some monetization is working.. good enough.. save all that extra time making better games.. if you have a hit game, then worry about getting $0.04 per click than $0.02..
