  • I'm updating one of my games, changing it to free and adding Ad support via the Metro plugin.

    I have never had the game lock up in my tests via the simulator or desktop. The App Certification passes the app with 0 issues. However the last 2 times I uploaded to Microsoft it fails stating the game locks up. The only thing I did to the game was add the Metro plugin.

    Off course they don't tell me where the game is locking up. Any advice?

  • Well you use the cloud compiler from Ludei.

    After it's compiled it sends you an email with the APK for droid and X-Code project file for iOS.

    Here is a quick guide.

    I'm trying to install it on my windows 8 box and I am getting an error as well.

    I installed via admin command prompt. All the files are in the metro folder under plugins.

    The error is

    Fixed the issue, my common.js was corrupted.

  • I have a game on iOS that was compiled with CocoonJS and webstorage works fine.

    What did you use to convert the game to iOS?

  • One More, creating a Score Combo system

  • Just posted up my second video, creating an Arcade Style High Score

  • That's a little beyond my simply/basic tutorials. Sorry.

  • Thanks Yann,

    I was going to do a follow up video with "Advance" health bar stuff, so thanks for that tidbit, I will use it :)

  • First tutorial is done. Health Bars.

  • Have you tried using the Pin behavior?

  • Does your sprite have 2 frames in the animation? One facing left and one facing right?

    On key pressing left, use frame 1

    On key pressing right, use frame 0

    Something like that? Or did I misunderstand your question?

  • I'll try to get going on some starting tonight. Maybe a health bar one to start off :).

  • Well with Construct 2 getting so popular, we are starting to see a lot requests for tutorials on beginner stuff like "How to make a health bar?" I enjoy doing video tutorials when I have time, so I thought it might be nice to have a place for people to can put in a request for a video tutorial about something they are not really understanding.

    I'm not looking to do tutorials for overly complex items right now, but more to help the beginners out. I know I learn much better watching a video where someone is talking and explaining.

    I'm no Construct pro, but I feel like I have the basics down enough to help out. You can either reply here with a request or shoot me a PM and I will add it here so people don't request the same thing twice.

  • Yeah, awesome idea man. I was actually thinking of doing the same thing :). Not sure how confident on my skills to try and do something live though, kudos!

  • I can get it to work, but not with the "Scrolling" effect yet. Basically you can just create hidden walls between each "Tile". Then when the player collides with the wall, it System->Scroll To a point on the center of next Tile.

    Does that make sense?
