    Hijacking?

    Every question I have posed has been directly related to the complaints of the OP and many other people on this thread.

    No one forces you to read or respond to my posts.

    No, you're repeating the same stuff over and over again everywhere.

    You're a firebug, you're forcing Ashley or Tom to repeatedly read your posts and respond to them.

    I'm usually only reading on this forum but I'm getting sick of the way you're hijacking threads lamar. Could you please stop with this nonsense. Critique and discussions in a civilized manner are a great thing but you're constantly hijacking threads, mixing up or completely changing the many concerns of the opening or follow up posts to fit your agenda and then repeatedly target Ashely and Tom with an incredible amount of posts that never lead anywhere and finally destroy the whole thread.

  • Scirra wil not add that things because many users like Rexrainbow make good job adding they addons for free.

    for example Construct 2 without many well maded third party plugins is...

    Well that's the point, right? That sort of stuff doesn't work anymore if instead of charging once you suddenly charge the same amount yearly. You should be able to provide the most important features yourself then.

  • No, that's a very important question!

    I've been looking for an answer myself but haven't found anything as of yet. Thank you for bringing this up in a thread, I hope we'll get some clarification!

  • szymek Oh, I didn't know that you could call people that way. Thank you!

    Ashley Good to know, thank you for taking the time to answer!

  • Hey guys,

    forgive me for going slightly off-topic but i thought this might be the right place for my question since everybody here is focusing on the amazon app store. Here's a link to a thread I opened in the "How do I..."-section about kindle fire:

    I tried a few games of the ones that were posted here and they run wonderfully (for example Super Donut Drifter by neverk) but i somehow can't get a layout with nothing but a simple moving sphere to display at 60 fps. Help would be greatly appreciated if you have a minute to spare!

    Cheers!

  • Hey there everybody,

    I'm completely new to Construct 2 and this is my very first post on this forum. I hope this is the right sub forum for this kind of question (it's also the only one i found).

    I tried to absorb as much information as possible about the Editor before starting my first project. Because I want to develop mainly for mobile devices I've set up a testing project and tried to get a very simple layout running on my devices. It was basically just a ground and a rectangle which the player controls through two touch areas.

    iOS worked like a charm but on my kindle fire hd7 I'm getting terrible results. The game runs at 60fps but once the player starts moving they drop to 27-30 (installing the .apk on the device or using the amazon web app tester provided exactly the same results). Then I filled the scene with A LOT of rectangles (I think hundreds) - it ran at perfect 60fps until the player started moving which dropped them to 27-30. Finally I left the whole layout empty but one sphere sprite with a sine behavior moving up and down - once again the fps dropped to 27-30. The framerate always dropping to exactly 27-30 when an object starts to move seems strange to me.

    I tried to find a solution with the forum search function or google but all I was able to dig out was one thread from 3 years ago and the tutorial on how to export for the Amazon App Store by Ashley. So I hope you guys can help me out, am i missing something important like a setting somewhere in Construct 2 or what's going on?

    I'll attach the layout with the single moving sphere because that's the most simple one.

    Cheers!

    Edit: One thing i found out is that setting 'Use high-DPI display' to 'No' increases the fps for the moving sphere to 35-40, but no other setting in the project properties increases them further.
