  • problem solved i install the exe file from a friends pc with 32bit os and now i can run it.so if you want delete the topic

  • yes i did it but nothing. i use another unistaller not windows to scan for leftovers and delete those as well i delete the directories i reinstall it but nothing same problem.

    I deactivate antivirus i install it again i check for any issues with my pc with tune it up-like program for registry problems or other issues, nothing also.

    i install it in my gfriends netbook and it run ok. netbook has 32bit windows i use 64bit.i'll try to install it in ubuntu to see if its ok there but as c2 cant run under linux its a problem.. the thing is that intel doesnt have any previous builds so im stuck with 505.Many people have problems with automatic update and offline update/install so lelts hope that they solve the problem.But for now there is no solution for my problem.

  • spy84 bjadams - I was actually contacted out of the blue by http://www.hoodamath.com and ended up selling a non-exclusive license for three of my games. A non-exclusive license basically means that the entity that purchases the license can use it for their own site (usually by hosting the game and generating ad traffic/money). But it is non-exclusive, so I am free to shop my game around to other places and sell it again and again. An exclusive license will sell for more money, but then you can only sell it once. Of course, there are gray areas and nothing is set in stone, and you will want all the terms spelled out in a contract so both parties know what to expect and for how long each party must abide by it.

    and which are the games you sold?can u send me a link with pm if you want?

  • well done my friend. I want to ask you something. Where you sold it?Cause i just saw a site called marketJS and i find it interresting.Or somewhere else?Can you give me a guide?It will be very helpfull.

    And something else, i am a little curious. have you a link of your games?thanks in advance if you want send me a pm.wish you best of luck , creativity and success

  • i dont know if i should post here but at intel's xdk forum i dont find any usefull answer so if someone knows please help me.

    i ran xdk 240(?) version an old one so i tried today to update it. at the updating process the xdk crashes and said about a problem...Then i go to the xdk site and manually i download and instal 505.when i ran it it poped up a window saying that :

    "xdk encountered a problem and must restard." I check my java version 7, 51build.i unistall both java and xdk i search for leftover files i delete them and install again java and xdk. But the same message..Has anyone here face a problem like this.Is there a solution?Or should i wait until the next build?

  • guys after updating from version 240 (i think) to the newest 505 i cant open xdk. It crashes. "xdk encountered a problem and must restart".

    ive check my java version is up to date. im running w7 64bit

  • Fimbul

    "If you guys want to pressure Ashley to focus on mobile exporters, then I am within my rights as a buyer to pressure Ashley to NOT focus on mobile and keep his current strategy of a pure-HTML5 product".

    • I understand that youve got a lot experience. im shocking that these thoughts are from an experienced developer like you.Because experience means years and you are not a child to speak this way. What it means we pressure for mobile and you with your rights will pressure Ashley to NOT focus on mobile. Ashley is not a dog or a cat...He has his plan for what he will do. And for the moment he gave us many alternatives desktop,mobile,consoles and we are talking about our problems/our worries to find out where things will go.

    In the end you bought c2 for a specific thing, others (like me) also bought it for html but mainly for mobiles. All have opinion there is no need to push someone.

    Also you wrote:

    "When this product started (and when I purchased my license) it was all about the desktop, so when business decisions start impacting the quality for me (and make no mistake, if Ashley were to focus on native exporters, the desktop side would suffer), I have to speak)."

    -"when the program started"...Now you remind me WIN XP..Then the engine got a specific target now it has multiple targets.things changing like Windows...it is called progress 3.1-95-98-me-xp-7-8

  • spy84 I wasn't talking about anyone or any game in particular, sorry if it came across like that! There just seems to be a lot of talk about monetising, advertising etc on the boards, but sometimes when I click through to play the game in question it's either in need of a *lot* of polishing, or it's a very simple clone game that already exists 1000 times over. It sometimes feels like people are putting the cart before the horse a little bit.

    Anyway, I've just realised this isn't really relevant to the main topic which was about exporting, so I'll shut up

    no you are right but this is not only for games its for everything that costs money.from clothes to cars from food to services the most of them are overpriced.

    Maybe the talk about ads and monetising lasts so much because we have not cleared yet that is fully funcional in c2 and works like charm. And we have to face the truth that because of the economical situation the unemployment, and that things always get harder and not better, people (me too) have the hope that "maybe" can sell a game and get some money doing something that we like the best. If we failed making a bad game(s) maybe we reconsider what were doing wrong.And start to work and think different.if not maybe we quit what were doing and do something else.if we succeed we will continue to evolving our selfs and set the target higher.

  • lolpaca

    how you come to this conclusion?that some people bought c2 to get rich by flooding the app stores with clones?what is the definition of clone?if you mean games like flappy bird you are right its a bad idea.i build for example a horizontal space shooter like rtype and for months i make blender 3d my best friend.too much work and a lot of learning process via tutorials.But if someone clones something and make it decent why not?there are good clones and bad copies. Oddplanet is veeeery inspired by limbo we can say that is a clone of it, LAD game also is a clone.its not a bad thing.If they are decent why not?

  • they released fusion 2.5.but its expensive for my economical status...

  • Arima c2 is light years ahead of mmf but native exporters is really a veeeery big thing and shorts the time of these light years.

    I see many games in here:

    wich are great (for me) and some not. actually i dont realise the light years away really but i dont used mmf so i have no opinion but anyway.. all these games have at least better chances for multiplatform. i know your opinion and im agree mostly.

    and something to all of you that maybe you misunderstand what many of us say.

    the thing is that its not necesserary to tell eachother if c2 is great to do this or that.We know what it can do. the thing is to tell where c2 has limitations and problems.If someone use it for html5 only someone bought it for ios and android too.So the answer i want it for this and its great and idont care for the other options is acceptable yes but it doesnt sound really well to me cause i want it for android and ios.we are not enemies to scirra..we are supporters and buyers.
