FAQ / Help Android Export

« on: 2012-Jul-31 »

Hi,
I tried to compile my code to Android, but it returns this error:

Code: (glbasic) [Select]

compile+link:
running Android build-script...
BUILD STAGE 1: Compile and pack RELEASE
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Failed to create Q:\Compiler\platform\android\android-sdk-windows\add-ons.

BUILD STAGE 2: Build DEBUG and install on device
Buildfile: build.xml does not exist!
Build failed
finished Android build-script.

I installed the 32 bit version of Java JDK: jdk-7u5-windows-i586.
I created the environment variable: JAVA_HOME.
I installed the Android SDK, but I do not know what should I download on the SDK Manager.
I downloaded the Android SDK Manager: all API version 4.1 and version 2.3.3 and USB Driver Google.
I created the add_ons folder and now there is a path: C: \ Program Files (x86) \ GLBasic \ Compiler \ platform \ Android \ android-sdk-windows \ add_ons
I tried deleting the folder Android, contained in the folder distribute 
and after I went to File -> Project -> Clean Up, and then I redid the Build Multiplatform, but the error remains.

I use Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit.
What is wrong?
I do not understand why the compiler searches the drive Q.

Sorry for my bad English.
Thank you for help.

GLBasic - en / help with system palette

« on: 2010-Oct-14 »

Hi,
I created a system that makes a series of comparisons between two sprites, it prints the numbers of colors in a file: (In the Attach file: Media\1.txt )

Code: (glbasic) [Select]

the coll 0  contains the color palette of original palette sprite
the coll 1  contains the color palette of modified palette sprite
the coll 2  contains the color palette of modified palette sprite
the coll 3  ecc ecc


After I call this file with the attached code and swap the row color.
it works fine until it returns to column 0 because change the colors incorrectly.

Help Me.....

GLOBAL mouse[] AS tMouse
DIM mouse[5]

SHOWSCREEN


WHILE TRUE

updateMice() //<- when reading this function the iphone closes the application

Announcements / My Editor + GLBASIC (Great Engine) = iMUGEN

« on: 2010-Apr-22 »

This is the result of my modified editor:


iPhone Version:
http://www.screencast.com/t/OGVkNDRi

PC Version:
http://www.screencast.com/t/ZmUwZTUwYj


PC Version have a realtime shadow on the player
The Fps on iPhone whit real time shadow are to slow (14~20 FPS)
Now i implementing blob shadow ...   

Unfortunately, I do not know how many animations will be added for memory limits ...

 it would take more memory for sprites and the possibility when using POLYNEWSTRIP, to change ALPHAMODE for single POLY generated ....
