  • C3 is right for you.

    I was a complete n00b a year ago and now I have my first game up and running on the Play Store.

  • Hi all,

    Just wanted to *bump* this because I am interested in the same thing.

    Also, i'll add some resources to get the conversation moving:

    1. I also saw that Photon may be the easiest way to do this? Not exactly sure why this is the case though. And it also looks like the plugin still works on C3 (based on 's comments at the bottom of this tut page).

    2. The multiplayer plugin also seems like a good bet. I found Ashley's 'Online multiplayer in Construct Game Dev Course'. TBH I have yet to read through it, but it will be the first thing I look into, because it uses the C3 native multiplayer plugin.

    Thanks!

    Mannnn, i've been trying to get the physical iPhone hooked up to this VM for a week now and no luck. My Android device wont connect either, while a USB stick has no issues. I've followed all the tips online and I just cant figure it out. Did you run into this issue? I'm about to give up on the VM idea and shell out some money for a MacintheCloud.

    I know that another poster has already asked this, but can you really hook up a physical iPhone to the MacintheCloud set up? Did you ever have any issues with this?

    [edit - just found

    this thread which talks about the limitations for MacinCloud USB connectivity.]

    Thanks!

  • Artpunk Thanks! I'll make that fix right now.

    You absolutely have to test a proper xcode build! In terms of mac I had xcode successfully running in a VM, though Ashley adviced against it since Apple may not exactly like that. If you have an old macbook around, you can use this dosdude1.com/software.html to update it to the newest macos even if it´s not officially supported. Worked like a charm for my 2009 macbook.

    Thanks for this tip! After much fiddling I got it up and running on a VM. I was even able to get the emulator working on a simple minification export. I can see 39 ominous yellow warning symbols though.

    Works just fine in remote preview on an iphone, but I'm curious to see what will happen when I try to run it through Xcode. I don't have easy access to a Mac computer, so it's making this part a little wacky.

  • WackyToaster

    And obviously all the services you might use that are tied to google (highscore lists and such) need to be adjusted for iOS.

    I saw somewhere that XCode was giving errors due to there being Google stuffs inside. Will I need to delete all of the plugins that are related to the opposite OS? Or can I keep them in there and just create a 'PlatformInfo' condition?

    Here's a picture to help explain what I mean:

  • You can use online generators to make it quickly and easily. Then add it to a page on your website.

  • Nice! Thanks guys. I will have a go soon and hopefully it goes smoothly.

  • I have finished up my Android APK and its now sitting happily on the PlayStore. I will now begin looking into the iOS port of my APP.

    What things should I look out for when I start this process?

    For example, one issue I know that needs to be fixed is sound. Everything works fine in Android, but certain sounds dont play in iOS. I recently found out that this could be because I have MP3s, which is a format that doesn't jive well with iOS.

    Anyway, is there anything that should be converted, changed, tested, etc when moving from Android to iOS?

    Thank you for your help!
