  • I can't reproduce. Without a .capx, I just open Ghost Shooter, and it opens fine.

    These kinds of errors are usually caused by buggy third-party addons. All the official addons are configured correctly, but if you install a misconfigured third-party addon, then beta releases will tell you about the misconfiguration.

  • It looks like a bug we've already fixed. Try the r92 beta.

  • You do not have permission to view this post

  • We're not comfortable issuing many-year rewards. It's too far ahead to predict what the product or company will be doing, and with such uncertainty it doesn't seem fair to offer this as an incentive.

    If you try to circumvent the rewards we will be forced to reduce them for everybody. You don't have to contribute any translations if you don't think it's a fair reward.

  • The URL is not valid. Please provide a valid URL to the .capx file.

  • Generally I would say if you can translate a term, you should. The goal of translating C3 is so that somebody who does not speak *any* English can use it and make sense of it. I think trying to leave some terms untranslated to try to teach them English terms is counter to this goal. On the other hand apparently some English technical terms are de-facto standard terms in other languages too, so it doesn't make sense to translate them. (I guess this applies to things like "WebSocket".) I don't know the language so such decisions are up to you, but try to focus on someone who doesn't speak a word of English - what would make their life easiest?

  • I think --ignore-gpu-blacklist would prevent the software renderer ever being used anyway. I guess if you literally don't have a GPU (or it's a headless system or some such) then it actually should fall back to the software renderer, so I guess it's better to remove --disable-software-rasterizer anyway. I think those systems are pretty rare, and surely nonexistent amongst gamers, so it's pretty academic. So it should be fine to just delete that flag, which is what the latest betas do.

  • Other proof is that the same device *used* to work with chrome a month ago, and the same device apparently works with Chrome Canary and Chrome Dev, just tested.

    Well, that sounds like a Chrome bug that just got fixed then - so it just means waiting for the fix to make its way down to the stable channel.

  • It could automatically redirect you, but then it's awkward if you actually want to use r89. The current system at least gives you a clear, 1-click choice.

  • The beta versions have a different URL, e.g. editor.construct.net/r92 for the r92 beta. The stable release runs on editor.construct.net. If you bookmark/add to homescreen/otherwise load editor.construct.net, you're loading the latest stable release (currently r89). Then if you've opted in to get notifications about beta releases, you'll see a notification.

    So currently it's all working as intended, but this question has come up a few times now, so I guess we ought to tweak it to make it better. Maybe stable releases should only prompt you about a new beta once?

  • What device is it specifically? A similar type of issue has come up in the past where the device doesn't actually have an accelerometer sensor. In that case some browsers, but not others, try to emulate an accelerometer via the other sensors. So you'd just be seeing the difference between which browsers do this emulation.

  • Try Construct 3

  • The best way to find out is test it on a real device. Nobody can really give accurate advice by speculating.
