Time to publish my first game - some questions.

Hello, very soon I'll post my first game in play store and I would like to ask some questions here.

I'm doing some tests with XDK and I have two questions.

In this video you can see how start a game that guess is made with another engine then you can see how starts a test using XDK crosswalk.

1 - In the video you can see the spash screen of cordoba (I think that can not be deleted).

In this fragment observed a strange flash, I want to eliminate that, It seems some sort of error at starting.

Can I correct this flash ?.

2 - Then you can see that, although I have activated the option of full screen, the application does not hide the time and the battery level up the game screen, is strange and I do not like.

Can I correct this?.

The first application running, which is not made with C2, works perfectly, so how can I get a similar behavior in my game ?.

The video you shared is private. We can't watch it.

Sorry!.

Interesting white flash you got there. Did you try to change the loader style? The mobile apps I made doesn't have this issue, but I'm not using the default loader style.

Hi, I can not show the loading bar, really just the splashscreen of cordoba, plus the flashes do not disappear.

Could you have a look to see if I'm doing something wrong please ?.

Both things are possible in Intel XDK

For Splashscreen

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18366379/how-do-i-change-the-splash-screen-in-the-intel-xdk

And for the statusbar there somewhere a checkmark (Just I can not access XDK)

In IntelXDK on the build settings "Plugin Management" just delete the splashscreen plugin. I don't have the splashscreens on my apps.

Hi, thanks for the advice!, I managed to remove the cordova splashscreen removing the plugin but still not a clean boot !.

Only this, something strange happens before the loading screen appears, should I remove that and make a clean start, direct access to the loading screen.

In the video you can see a white screen, later the screen turns to black and a white bar appears at the bottom of the screen, finally appears the loading screen and white screen with a sprite.

And the configuration in Construct:

I have a similar problem with the white flash try this https://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/intel-xdk/topic/623412

I did some tests by re-exporting your game and from what I found out is that the flash happens when you build it with Crosswalk.

With the splashscreen plugin installed in XDK and built without Crosswalk the game would start up with the default Cordova splash screen (I didn't bother to replace the images) and it pulses for a while (for a few seconds, till it loads) then it simply fades to your loading layout. I suggest try a build with this method.

Yep got this on all my 3 games that I wrapped with xdk, maybe have to wait for a fix, otherwise games run smooth on android.

check them out, too see if it flashes?

Thank you all.

Hang me if I'm wrong but I'd say it's not currently possible to solve this problem.

You can delete the splashcreen of cordoba simply removing the plugin but the flash happens next seems to come from the initialization of the web view of cordoba, that I read.

Here the latest information about this behavior:

https://software.intel.com/en-us/xdk/faqs/crosswalk#construct2-crosswalk-white-flash

The best result I obtained was this, using crosswalk:

It is necessary to use splash screen.

APK:

Add these lines to intelxdk.config.additions.xml to get that result:

<!-- set Crosswalk default background color -->

<!-- see http://developer.android.com/reference/ ... Color.html -->

<preference name="BackgroundColor" value="0x00000000" />

</platform>

<platform name="android">

<!-- following requires the splash screen plugin -->

<!-- see https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-splashscreen for details -->

<preference name="SplashScreen" value="screen" />

<preference name="AutoHideSplashScreen" value="false" />

Hello, please, can anyone help me with this ?.

I'm testing the plugin appodeal ad.

I created the apk, it is a test, only it contains two buttons to display banner and video rewarded.

Ok, I have the AdMob account and synchronized appodeal admob account.

Well ... what I have to do now to show ads on mobile ?.

Is it necessary to upload the apk on google play for display ads?

Do I have to fill in all the data (I mean pictures of game, description, game genre, etc ...) in google play just to try this test of ads ?.

— While I haven't used Appodeal yet, I think you should start with these tutorials for some information:

https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/4896/s ... arning-ads

https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/4979/a ... onstruct-2

(The latter is for Cocoon.io, but you might get some useful information out of it.)

When I used AdMob, it wasn't necessary to upload to Google Play just to test the ads. I think that should be the case with Appodeal too.
