I see. Will you be continuing working on OUYA support later?
Seems pointless for me trying to compile it myself if controller input doesn't work.
Thanks for the update!

Yes, I've got some -unreleased yet- code that is working beautifully in the Ouya.
It's got joysticks and GPU scaling.

As I said, it's unfinished yet but as soon as it's working fine I'll release the code.

excellent

Awesome, I finally got past all the confusion about java paths!
Now I can see my app on the phone!
Well, mostly. Images from the fpg are not there, and sound is missing too. Also, touching the screen doesn't work. What am I missing?

[cmunoz]

UPDATE:Ok I was able to figure out the touch thing using mod_multi. So now the touch works!
But no sound or images. I tried pulling in loose png files, in case the fpg was causing the problem, but no success there either.
I also read somewhere that using more than one sound could cause the sounds to crash, but I couldn't even get one sound working. Any advice? I'll update if I can figure anything out....

Please, make sure that your FPG files are not compressed. Compressed FPG files are not supported.

Also, please user Pixel's Pixplantilla, which includes a much newer version of BennuGD for Android which works much better.

Kind regards,

Thank you so much, I can't wait to try it out! We are living in exciting times!

Hello, sorry to bother everyone again. I'm just really trying to figure this out. If there's a better place to ask about this, or if anyone knows some documentation to point me to, I would appreciate it very much.

I couldn't find much advice on how to use plantilla, except for this:
http://www.bennugd.fr/index.php?mod=forum&ac=voir&id=512\

I didn't understand what to do about the keystore, but I tried it anyway.
I tried following the instructions, but I think I'm missing something.


compilar.bat ran my program in bgdi
exportar-android.bat ran a command window and then opened up a temp folder with nothing in it.
The window mentioned a missing file: *release.apk
I'm not sure if that's important. I tried creating that file manually and putting it in a few different locations but the compiler never picked it up.
Here's the entire window message:

Check the "export/bin" folder in your game folder, there you should find  the file "yourgame"-debug.apk, which you can then copy to your android device/emulator and try it! 
That "temp" one always comes up empty, as far as I know. Just ignore it.

[cmunoz]

Hmm, thanks for the tip. I couldn't find the folder or file you referred to. Is it in the pixplantilla folder?

[handsource-dyko]

Strange that you get an error message with xcopy. What windows version are you using?

[cmunoz]

Hello, sorry for the slow reply =)
I'm on Windows 7 - 64 bit.
