  • Hi,

    When I upload a HTML5 version of my app, I can open the URL with the latest iPad just fine.

    But the second time I visit that URL, it will hang.

    What gives?

  • Hey,

    I read a blog post on scirra which mentioned that only a small percentage has upgraded to Windows 8.1

    I wonder if those of you who make apps for the Windows App Store export W8 apps or, do you export for the latest Windows 8.1?

    Just curious,

  • Hey guys,

    I'd like to add a feature to my piano app which plays every key (note) once and 0db (silent) and then, once that is complete, turns up the volume again and make the app ready for use.

    Does anyone happen to have a capx which has these features already implemented?

    I've read a tutorial on how to play sounds with functions but it doesn't look like a solution that is ideal for my situation.

    Even if someone could post just how to play one sound and change the volume would be enough for me to learn from.

    Thanks,

    you import only the .wav file and it will create and .mp4 and .ogg file.

    I hope that helps,

    thank you so much. I will try this tonight.

    Sorry about the sound object (i forgot).

    You last comment, about suspending player input during sound is brilliant! I didn't know that I can have the app and myself play audio at the same time.

    THIS opens up a whole new door to accompaniments and two-voice harmony and and and ...

    I am so excited and can't wait to mess with what you have suggested.

    Ciao for now,

  • Hi,

    I would like make a game which displays 3 sprites.

    Each sprite has four frames.

    The first frame (0) is blank and frames 1, 2 and 3 display the colour yellow, green and blue at random.

    I also have audio files, each one second long, which say the colour name.

    The included capx has all of the above already setup.

    --------------------------------------------

    What I would like to achieve is:

    How do I play the sounds of all 3 four sprites in sequence (in a row) when the PLAY button is pressed?

    I don't want the audio to play when the sprites are touched.

    That's it.

    Thanks for any advise, tutorial link or suggestions,

  • Hi Canada GDP

    how about if you put a "note" in your game and challenge the player to record the game action and post it on YouTube.

    I like the notes idea!!!

    For some reason, I can't "see" the tt people but, I will experiment. Maybe something pops up.

    Thanks for your input,

  • Hey,

    I do a lot of graphics design but have a sickness. I don't like my logo.

    Making a logo for other people is easy ... just mine, is not.

    This is my current logo and I'd love YOU to tell me if I should start over,

    or pay a professional or, just live with it.

    HELP! HiLFE! AIDER! AYUDAR!

  • Hello everyone,

    I have just uploaded a new app to the Windows Store but it is on hold until I finish my "payout" step ...

    Because C2 gives us also the opportunity to post our apps on the web, I have an identical version on my http://littlecomposers.com homepage (link is on the lower left corner "Featured App".

    If any of you have young children, please feel free to let them play ... you never know what awakens.

    Ciao for now,

    V

    P.S. If you are planning on using this please check out the help file (the app has a HELP link in the menu). It will show you a few things that are perhaps not as obvious as they should be.

    I am relieved to hear that.

    You see, I build my apps on W7 and just bring 'em over to the W8 machine to do the VS Express thing.

    I was really worried if MS would even approve the app but now that I know that everything works ... I better get back to work!

    THANK YOU!

  • Hi,

    I am a mac guy and to make Windows 8.1 apps, I bought a cheap acer computer with a touchscreen.

    For some reason, there is a bug with the gfx driver? which makes the screen black every time I click.

    Could someone download my app, run it and let me know if the screen goes black every time you click or touch a piano key?

    http://apps.microsoft.com/windows/en-us/app/6a3ffac3-65e8-43b7-8561-3e3efdd97d72

    Thanks!

    P.S. the app passed MS verification and was approved within hours last night. But on my acer system I still get the black screen. Do you?
