  • Guyon - Construct 2 will be best since it is easier compare to programming it using javascript. Construct 2 already made Android Game development easier compare to programming. I will recommend you to use Construct 2 and once you are finished then export to cordova --> IntelXDK / Cocoon.IO. Honestly making games is better and easier in HTML 5 compare to Flash and Construct 2 made it easier by getting rid of programming. Making a dressup game will be better in C2 using some arrays and localstorage.

    This tutorial to build a C2 game to an apk using IntelXDK is outdated but it will get you started:

    Good luck in shifting to Mobile Development <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy">

  • Nevermind, Solved. Not a C2 problem but a Spriter(scml) Plugin problem.

    Edit: I am not sure anymore if this is a C2 problem or a SCML plugin problem because this is the weirdest thing I have seen in Construct 2.

    -Sprites and Scml objects shouldn't be family, that's just wrong.

    Ashley ?

  • Problem Description

    Good thing I made a backup before updating to C2 R228 because when I opened my project every time in the new C2 r228 release, this error message shows up. I am not entirely sure what caused this since I just updated and reopened my project so I can't tell for sure but It has something to do with the family objects I had that made conflict with the update.

    Attach a Capx

    I can't post a sample .capx since I don't know the exact reason yet since it happened when I updated to C2 r228.

  • Also, the thing about SDKs is that once you learn programming using javascript the SDKs will be your set of tools to implement what you have learned. Example, programming/making games or apps in a specific platform. In Construct 2, the C2 Javascript SDK is used for making plugins, behaviors and effects that can be used to extend C2's capabilities for game development.

  • — - I noticed that there is a bug on the scml plugin that prevents the "Undo" (Ctrl + Z) to un-import the scml imported to Construct 2 when it fails to load in Construct 2 saying that the scml file is broken.

    Procedure to remake the bug:

    1)Import a spriter project that you made.

    2)Once it is imported, rename the spriter project(scml) with another name.

    3)Import the newly made name of scml.

    4)When the message pops up that the scml plugin is broken then...

    5) CTRL + Z ("Undo")

    6)Undo to revert anywhere previous or up to the opening of the project where no changes were made.

    Result:

    The SCML file of the failed load is still there (The scml file and the scml object that you changed the name and failed to load will be stuck on the C2 project.)

    -I hope you can fix this, since it might leave some leftovers inside the project without us knowing.-

  • Guyz, let's have a little bit of sportmanship here. I also didn't win but I accept the winners selected by Rikoshe. Everyone worked hard on their game, and the measure of their effort is the result of their winning place. If you think you worked hard, imagine how much more the winners worked hard. Besides, Rikoshe did say they evaluated the games very properly. Kontratz already received a penalty and that is enough.

  • Amazing Ashley , very helpful for us who uses spriter projects.

  • Try Construct 3

  • Based on this tutorial: https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/577/co ... imisations

    How does C2 deduplicate sprites? Will it deduplicate images imported separately, not cloned?

    Is C2 smart enough to identify pixel difference that even if I separately import (not clone) images, it will know that it is the same?

    For example, I imported a similar spriter project (with similar images and etc.) in C2 but different scml name. Will it deduplicate the images by telling which is similar?

    Thanks in advance.

    Just in case Ashley is online.

  • xmnboy

    Thanks, it works fine now. Here is the result of the fix : https://youtu.be/MH1tjMWN_74 .

    Also as you said that this must be a Construct 2 problem with setting the splashscreen, will you inform and talk to Ashley about this yourself or should we tag him here?

    Edit:

    I also made a tutorial for this page topic, in case that this page is covered by next topics inside this forum topic.

  • xmnboy - https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=A ... file%2crar . Here is the link, I hope you can find a solution.

  • xmnboy - I followed your instructions and found out that the splashscreen did not last for 10 seconds(still the same) and the white blink is still there and the bad news is that a loading image has shown on the splashscreen. I can't explain everything so, I uploaded a recording on youtube: https://youtu.be/zlWdh8RqGfw . BTW, the :100%" on the screen is part of the Construct 2 custom loader layout I made.

  • SparklingAir - I figured it out long ago. You put it on your app via Cranberry plugin or Construct 2 Official IAP plugin but the Construct 2 Official IAP plugin is limited because you can't consume products.

  • Looks fun. Challenging game.

  • — - Crosswalk 17 has a much faster blink now and only shows at the bottom, you should try it.
