  • Whooops... downloaded the beta some minutes ago... and... ... my app hangs with a black screen.

  • Try Construct 3

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

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads
  • Downloaded Dolphin HD + Phonegap addon.

    Stunning rendering performance (30-40 FPS) but tragic lags on touch input.

  • Apart from multitouch support I found gingerbread more performing in html5 rendering than ics. XPlay is running gingerbread?

  • Blgth

    You can try Furries done by forum user Ranma. It's entirely made in c2 and exported with phonegap.

  • Just a curiosity... How do you recognize garbage collector logs in logcat? I set it to Verbose and still don't find them.

  • 1) Yes, now it's possible with some tips and optimizations. (There's a tutorial about mobile devices. The author has some apps on google play).

    Directcanvas and cocoonjs will remove this bottleneck.

    2) In my case (I'm on the android side) I use 800x480 resolution and looks good on different devices.

    3) Currently I use phonegap (getting 15-20 FPS) but I'm waiting for CocoonJS release. I used AppMobi containers for a while but I found it somewhat bloated and I really don't like the unkind support.

    4) Yes. You can use webstorage plugin. It works with phonegap. Hopefully there will be something similar in CocoonJS (CocoonJS doesn't use a browser so webstorage plugin support is still a question mark)

  • Clyde in action... A little progress on GFX side.

  • If you're talking about webstorage saved data there's a clear local storage action for this.

    If you're talking about resetting a single session you can write a simple refresh page javascript and call it through the callJS plugin (Maybe there's even a simpler way but here there are 40?C and my brain is melting <img src="smileys/smiley4.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> )

    EDIT: Ashley knows a simpler way <img src="smileys/smiley36.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> <img src="smileys/smiley36.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> <img src="smileys/smiley36.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

  • CocoonJS seems to use also m4a on Android and not only ogg. Try to convert all the missing sounds in m4a.

  • delgado

    I tried to debug your app through eclipse and logcat and I get this error (or similar errors) when it tries to play a sound.

    Are you sure you have these files in the right directory?

    06-22 14:53:12.109: E/IDTKLog(1371): error: /data/data/com.ideateca.cocoonjslauncher/files/game/media/fall.m4a (No such file or directory)

  • Phonegap is simply a wrapper.

    The real bottleneck is the default browser so we have to hope a full support of HTML5 features and hw acceleration on WP8.

    BTW I didn't find WP7 performance so bad (20-25 FPS), the real problem on IE mobile is the awful touch support.

  • Oh... I forgot this...

    Currently I use this workaround.

    player has wall on the left

    player is not on floor

    -->

    player set x to player.x + 1

    If you use an invisible box as player you can adjust via events the position of the main charachter to avoid any noticeable gap between the sprite and the wall.
