Hi everyone,

I was just curious about making a game that utilizes live video footage.. there were some action games in the vein of "lethal enforcer" that i remember, but i can't find them.. so here is something else i found http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/506452

I heard about some AVI plugin, though it's not in C2 currently, but maybe it's a third party plugin? Just curious if this s even possible.. overlaying graphics on it would be cool too, like the old laser disk games like this

awesome! that's perfect. I knew there had to be more to this plugin than just the one default font.

Thanks!

Hi everyone,

So I have music (wavs) that I have edited that loop perfectly.. however i realize that often music likes to be compressed into mp3 and other formats that don't loop seamlessly..

My latest build with Crosswalk experiences a slight (but very jarring) hiccup when looping. iOS by way of Ejecta is near flawless (certainly not jarring), so I'm just wondering if there are any options for publishing for Android that would allow a smooth looping audio clip?

I know mp3 is definitely flawed for looping. I believe ogg is capable of seamless looping.. and i guess m4a (assuming that's what iOS uses).

are there any options to address this? it feels very unprofessional / cheap to have such a simple problem occur breaking the flow of the game.. the one workaround i might explore is making the songs loop longer, but this comes at a cost of making the game much larger.

Any tips / advice appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I'm using sprite fonts in my latest game, but needless to say the readability of them can be somewhat lacking..

also color variety would be awesome to have as well. I was just wondering if anyone made any interesting alternative font graphics. it seems like you can scale the size of them which is cool.

before i go and do some of my own I thought I'd check with folks to make sure I'm not reinventing the wheel.

Thanks,

Caleb

bump, this seems like it would be a very serious issue anyone could face if they want to update an app on the google market or possibly any other android market for that matter..

my understanding is the keystore file is much like the mobileprovision seen in iOS apps.. this is unique to the app and I'm concerned that the keystore in each new build is not

I know under the "Application title" you put package name.. perhaps this is what is used to generate the keystore and thus it is constant as long as this package name doesn't change. Is this what others have experienced? Has anyone else posted an update?

I just want to be sure I understand this before I upload something to the store and hit a problem doing an update.

Hi everyone,

I am doing a pause function that I want to freeze everything in place. In the past Time Scale set to 0.0 did the trick, but this time I'm noticing that several things continue to move (things that are driven by every tick) such as "Pollution.X-5".

Any reason why some objects would keep moving? I am using tweenlite in some cases, but those are not the problem.. its definitely things motivated by "per tick" actions

you can see the pause problem here http://part12studios.com/temp/BeeGood5/

Thanks!

oh wow didn't even think about that being an issue! Thanks for pointing that out. that's a shame, but I can work around that. The app's fundraising power was secondary. It can still serve it's purpose with out it. I just thought it would be a nice feature to add.. and give me a good reason to finall figure out how the IAP system works

That's cool that the IAP object acts as a kind of catch all for each store. I imagine there are specific tutorials for each of the mentioned supported platforms as well. i'll definitely dig into that (but not for this app!)

Thanks!

Hi everyone,

So I have a game I'm making that I want to be used as a "game for good". This will be meant to do two things:

1. raise awareness of bees and dangers they face

2. raise money for a non profit audubon society

So my plan is to make this game for iOS, Android, Windows 8, Windows Phone 8. I have experience reaching all of these platform, but what I haven't done before is doing IAP with C2..

I know there is the "IAP" plugin for C2.. but what does that work with? Is it a cross platform IAP system?

I'm working under a very tight timeline in order to have the game ready in time for respective app stores (iOS being the longest to get approved) so I'd like to be able to reuse as much IAP dev time as possible.

I'm looking to use Ejecta for iOS, how would I access IAP through that? Or is that possible yet? I see the ejecta object has iad support.. and some other things (game center i assume)

Thanks!

I'm confused about this. In the past using GameSalad I had to generate a keystore through the terminal (was done on mac). This created a custom keystore that I would use to sign my app.

It seems that Intel manages the keystore with each build, but is that keystore unique to each build? how does it know because my concern is if I upload an app with one keystore and do an update with a new build that has it's own unique keystore, then I'm pretty sure Google Play and likely others will reject it.

I thought someone here had experienced a similar issue on the forums but couldn't find the post. Does anyone know how this really works? I have a game that's ready to publish, but I want to be sure I'm doing it right.

Thanks!

Caleb
