YEAH !

Use the older version ONLY if you need Admob to work, that is all.

[Update, it seems the latest build randomly works with either Android of iOS but never both at the same time, I am done with this bullcrap, sticking with the older version of XDK.]

So I have seen threads and thread within thread with people complaining that it JUST doesn't work, and you have the people who SAY it works until you ask for prove and then all they have is their nose to show for.

Enough with the arguments, this is the solution, and moderators, you would do everyone a service by making this a sticky temporarily until Intel get their SXXt together.

First, history:

The latest version of XDK/AdMob Combi is a DISASTER.

I also have to disable WKWebView because it is causing all kinds of compilation errors with the latest version of the XDK.

I am so going to NEVER USE XDK again after this project, I am SICK and TIRED of them CONSTANTLY .... just CONSTANTLY breaking their own software.

Check out their LATEST stunt:

Using EXACTLY the version they want you to use and still says please use the version that you have already selected.

It is like the bully that ask why are you hitting yourself.

And when you ask them, their answer is "please send us your project file so we can find out".

Sure why don't I give you MY ENTIRE GAME....

I am SICK AND TIRED of having to deal with Intel XDK's "don't know when it will break again" periods...

Solution:

Public Service: Use Build 2866 of Intel XDK, works PERFECTLY.

Don't use construct 2's "new Intel XDK project format" and don't use WKWebView, it is causing all kinds of issue with XDK.

I don't know about you, but it took me half an hour to export my game because of the graphics so I WISH I knew all these earlier.

You are welcome.

Thanks, let's hope Intel Stops [MOD EDIT] MUCKING UP their Updates.

In case I didn't make it clear, this is very much a beta feature and we are still hammering out the details with Intel, so a few roadbumps are to be expected. You can always go back to the old way of exporting if you have trouble. We'll be making more improvements in the next releases.

Please hammer out the admob/intel xdk issue, it is causing EVERYONE issues

If I remember correctly, some time ago Cranberrygame changed id from com.cranberrygame.phonegap.plugin.ad.admob to cordova-plugin-ad-admob. so basically I am using the official one... It's just the manual states the wrong one and manual update cycle is terrible (updated usually on every C2 stable release).

Toddler Unfortunately I don't use xdk for iOS because don't care about them at all, so I'm sorry but can't help you with that :/

The manual may NOT got it wrong after all, because that old admob id STILL works with the older build of XDK.

I am telling you, XDK is broken...again.

It sure did.

It is not a bug and won't be fixed. If you read latest Intel XDK release notes you will understand. The way plugins are fetched is different now and developers have do the upgrade, but phonegap afmob from Cranberrygame is deprecated and probably won't be updated. You have to use Cranberrygame Cordova AdMob plugin now in Intel XDK.

shinkan the one you use is not the one from the official manual.

Ibelieve Scirra will update manual soon.

Did you even TRY to compile Admob for iOS using the latest XDK Build before you say so casually that it is not a bug ?

Let me put this to rest with PICTURES !
