  • Hello everyone,

    hoping someone can chip in and answer a couple of questions for me on Construct 3 (I started to go through the mammoth thread in the C2 forum but I couldn't definitively see the answers I was looking for).

    I also cant test for myself as despite having Chrome Beta with WebGL enabled and the latest nVidia drivers I just get the "No WebGL" error when I try and open C3

    Anyway - my two agonising core issues with C2 (and the reasons I'd never recommend it to anyone) are the reliance on 3rd party wrappers for mobile, and reliance on 3rd party plugins for monetisation.

    Despite getting 3 games onto both appstores (and having over 1200 hours in C2) how Construct plays with services like IntelXDK/Cocoon and advertising plugins like Appodeal/Admob appears to be pot luck at absolute best. Settings that worked perfectly one export, will simply not work on the next export. Adverts will work spuriously in one export and not at all in another (despite the logic not being changed and all plugin/wrapper versions being the same).

    Bitching aside (as I'm sure you've heard it all before - I have) does C3 deal with either of these issues?

    Is there any direct to appstore export? Please tell me we don't need to rely on the likes of XDK or Cocoon anymore.

    Is there inbuilt support for advertising/monetisation? Even if there isn't, have any improvements been made in this area?

    Fingers crossed,

    Cheers

  • So I'm not having this exact problem (with the black screen) but I AM running into the problem were you cant add or remove plugins from Construct projects in XDK (which could be causing the black screen).

    I've tried with the current and previous version of XDK.

    I'm using the latest beta of Construct 2 also btw and the issue remains.

    It is incredibly simply to reproduce for me - make a new Construct 2 project. I used the portrait HD. Exported via Cordova. Opened as new project in XDK - tried to add a plugin (core or 3rd party) and nothing happens. Also you cant remove plugins either.

    Maybe I should open a new thread for clarity?

  • Hi everyone,

    I'm trying to figure out why Appodeal refuses to show video adverts in my app, so I am trying to view the logs for it. Appodeal documentation suggests that the plugin will put logs out to logcat, but despite setting 'test mode' and 'logging' to yes, I cant get any logs to show up in the Chrome debugger. I also can't work out how to view logcat with the app running on device ect.

    Can anyone advise me at all on this? Apart from asking for my latest build Appodeal haven't been very helpful.

    If nothing else even just advice on viewing app logs would be invaluable!

    Thanks,

    Unseen
