Thanks for advise Ashley and tim. I tried doing some dynamic performance stuff last project by the following

Every tick.

If FPS is lower than X turn off feature.

If FPS is higher than Y turn on feature.

However, this can cause performance ping ponging. So I also tried

Every tick.

If FPS is lower than X turn off feature.

However, any slow down of course turned the feature off. So then I pushed the FPS to an array every tick and took an average FPS over X records, BUT during that period any bad performance can be seen. So I guess I could still use this method but display an overlay to hide bad performance.

I had this problem after creating some 1x1 sprites in the C2 editor. Resizing them to 2x2 seems to have fixed it.

Hi guys,

Is there a way to detect which version of iOS or Android your game is running on? What I want to do is dynamically disable elements of my game to increase performance on older OS versions.

Cheers,

— You can still export to it. Just read the build notes to find out how to activate it -> https://www.scirra.com/construct2/releases/r184

OK, I was hoping it would magically work once added as a third party plugin in the XDK since Ejecta and PhoneGap are supported by C2 i.e. no engineering from you. I agree Cordova/PhoneGap is the best choice for long term goals. It's just hard to know what to do for releasing iOS games before we get there. Which is not helped by reports of a stall of iOS8 adoption -> http://www.wired.com/2014/10/apple-ios-8-adoption. However, early days still...

Anywho, I'll do some R&D and see what the results are over the weekend.

Hi guys, as you maybe both aware I have been searching for a solution for producing an app that runs well on pre-iOS8 environments. Ideally I was after something similar to crosswalk for iOS and I think I may have found it.

I believe we can insert Ejecta as a plugin into Cordova. What's even better it has already been created by Wizcorp => https://github.com/Wizcorp/phonegap-plugin-wizCanvas

So if I'm not completely off base I am hoping this will essentially give us Ejecta performance for iOS7 and below, while giving us Cordova performance on iOS8 above.

Does that sound right to you guys or have I read too much between the lines?

P.S Here is an amazingly ***sarcasm detected*** detailed tutorial by Wizcorp http://wizcorp.github.io/presentations//cordova_wizCanvas_lt.html#/

EDIT: There is also a video along side that presentation, but it's in Japanese. However, it is worth jumping to the end as it shows a Three.js demo running -> http://vimeo.com/97916740

I had trouble finding keys when I did it =>

That may or may not help...

ArcadEd I saw it on facebook but not here that I know about. Listened and liked it.

— It's got some good ideas in there, but if it's easier perhaps you should just rename the old one legacy arcade and start a new one. Take over the bits and pieces you want and then just allow people to upload any html5 projects, while adding some community moderation. The more great games on the arcade the more attention scirra and c2 will get from the the public.

cesarzevil So I think some helpful advice would be that you need to clearly write out the question you need answering. Looking at the post that DUTOIT linked it feels more like you want people to fix your capx, but without knowing what you want to achieve.

Again in this thread you haven't made the problem clear. You say you feel "deceived and cheated" but don't explain your reasoning. I think you're blaming customer support as your reason for leaving?

In my experience the C2 community, Ashley and Tom have been exemplary at providing advice/help whenever I have needed it. You just need to be write your problem and your goal clearly to get the response you expect.

To be clear this is not an attack, but just trying to give help on getting good feedback.

zenox98 I did do a search but didn't find anything related in the first couple of pages, so thanks for info and stepping up.

Tom Hey, I think you're doing a great job, but what's the deal with the new arcade? When can we expect it to +1?
