  • now we know who is "shortercode" aka Nepeo ^_^

    thank you very much for deepening in argument, I had forgotten that the last number was "useless" in Cordova build, and i think thath Phonegap work the same thing when determining versioncode

  • as i said the problem is from canvas + . when i change it to webview+ the problem gone but the performance is very low.

    i have just maded a tutorial for building apk with Cordova CLI, im interestead on know if you encounter the same problem building with Cordova, in case just send me a similare template .capx of your problem and i build the apk for you

    look very nice, celshaded style too

    Getting there, I like it!

    Could you also implement some 'interior' cell shading to make it feel more consistent (for example in the edge of the V-neck of the tunic/shirt, the edge is too 'thin'. Would it will look better if that is also a thick line (is that a texture you can change or is that separate meshes?)

    yes you're right, the V of the tunic need to be edged

    all you see in not textured, only rendered with a toon shader with outline

  • NN81 Jesus, why are you stalking me around the forum? You don't know what you're talking about and Ashley asked me to post this bug. The point of Construct is no coding. ATM, you need to do coding. Go find another project, please.

    i'm not stalking you, the point is that what are you experienced isn't a C2 bug, Ashley suggest you open this topic to a extra feature request, but this must be clear, because the others do not think there is something wrong on C2 export. This is C2 not C3 that offer building apk service.

    C2 versionCode export are fine, if framework used to build apk do not implement correctly the corresponding android version isn't C2 problem.

  • just completed with signing procedure.

  • Problem Description

    The exported XML file when using Cordova doesn't include a VersionCode. It'd be nice if this was included within Construct, or even the export section.

    as i said in the other topic https://www.scirra.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=146&t=198135&start=10 i think this isn't a BUG, if Ashley wants to give an "extra" on C2 export files ok, but it's a gift not a bug.

  • Not meaning to be rude, but so far I've spent 2 days explaining something to you and had to go over the same stuff way too many times before you understood. Ashley has said that if we have to go into code to get stuff to work, there's something not right.

    I'm sorry about your reaction, I was a bit rusty on the argument, and I was happy to talk about it, even to remember how it worked and to understand why everything works fine to me with Cordova and not to you with Phonegap. also because it is a problem that can involve everyone and everyone can return useful find a solution. so if you think selfishly only to you, you have forgotten that you are in a forum where everything is disputable to learn and help each other. if this is not your spirit of community I'm sorry but patience. goodbye.

  • NN81 - Never heard of CLI before. Just had a quick look online, and it looks like you need to do some coding here and there. With PhoneGap, you literally just zip your export and upload it. I would have thought PhoneGap would be capable of updating the version code, but I guess not. I can access the AndroidMenifest.xml using Android Studio to open up the APK, but that's a step I don't deem necessary. It takes seconds to open the config file and add in the line, but it'd be nice if it weren't a step at all.

    My method doesn't require anything but Construct and PhoneGap's auto-sign and build site. It's so much simpler.

    Just had a read of your tutorial, and I still think PhoneGap is easier, excluding the VersionCode, which I'm hoping Scirra can do something about during export. With PhoneGap, I can build Android, iOS and Windows apps all with pretty much a single click.

    For me, fewer steps FTW.

    ok, these are tastes, and tastes are not discussed.

    But regardless of the framework used to build apk, that it is Phonegap or Cocoon or Cordova or whatever else you want, i think C2 do it's part when make the correct version codeline on config.xml file. Detect the corresponding android version and integrate it on the manifest file into the apk, needed for Google Playstore, it's up to the framework and not to Construct.

    for this I do not know how far it is meaning to consider it a C2 bug, because for me, for example, using Cordova CLI, everithing work fine .

  • NN81 - Before building the APK. Construct doesn't export the APK. I need to then run it through PhoneGap so it'll build the signed APK, then upload that to Google... at which point it demands an updated VersionCode.

    now i remember ), the version your talking is implemented on manifest.xml file when you begin build apk, it's automatically refer from version of the config.xml that you export from C2 (on Cordova CLI)

    look here

    so if you use Phonegap, maybe it's a Phonegap bug, or some incompatibility? because on Cordova CLI everithing work fine

  • And you have to change it before building apk or from google account??

  • Try Construct 3

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

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • NN81 - The "version" in properties is different from the version code Google Play requires. You can upload one APK without issue, but the second APK requires a different Version code... as does the next one, and the next one. Editing it each and every time is a little bit annoying, as I need to keep note of the version number each time. Fine for normal games, but annoying for those with many free updates or bug fixes.

    this soun strange to me, look here, i have just try exporting 3 times changing version on project properties and the config.xml and .json files automatically correct version, so when you build your apk from here they are correct. or maybe we are not understanding

  • Whats the difference between 2 && 3 ??

    2-3 =-1

  • Hi Ashley,

    Quick request

    I've been trying to figure out a way to update my APK on the Google Play Console, but each time it requested I upload an APK with a different Version Code.

    Took me ages to figure out what I needed to do. Trying multiple programs... with no luck.

    In the end, I simply opened the config.xml file and added in this line (in bold) between the other two:

    version="1.0.0.1" android-versionCode="10001" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/ns/widgets"

    Took quite a bit of research to find out that I could add this in, as it's described as optional. Not sure why it isn't included by default.

    My question is, is there a reason why this isn't included when we build the app? Also, is it possible to perhaps make this process a bit easier? Say including a Version Code properties section within Construct itself? Perhaps next to the Version number in the about section?

    have you changed version in your project before export?

    if i remember well on my app C2 automatically change the parameter you changed manually if you change version on the project field.

  • Howdy--

    What's the real bottom line difference between C2 && C3 ?? When it was first talked about I thought it was going to be a 3-D engine but it dosen't look like it. I have been off reading a bunch of science fiction novels lately && haven't really kept up much && thought I would ask-- thanks &&

    kind regards, mark-p.

    wrong section i think..
