Is Stage3d available for an Air app on Android?

hello guys~ i have seen some cool videos about Molehill demo on android device ,
but when i start to learn stage3d and adobe air , i hear someone say stage3d is not available for mobile at this moment (only work on desktop).
i read adobe air3.0 / air3.1 realease notes and stage3d documents but no information about whether the stage3d hardware accelerated rendering is avaiable right now on android or not .
could any one tell me ? thanks!!

As you know Stage3D uses the GPU of the underlying machine. It is therefore a seriously low-level piece of middleware, full of custom assembly language code for every single brand of GPU, of which there are a few in the mobile space.
Perhaps you consider AIR something other than middleware, that is the best i could do. Anyway Adobe staff are busting their rears making it, but it is not yet released. No one will give a date because until it passes through Quality Assurance it cannot ship. Adobe is loathe to release a buggy version because they will get pounded for it. I have no relationship with Adobe, nor any secret source, but I would venture that it will be June 2012 before we see Android / iOS stage3d availability at the earliest.
should be great, we haven't seen that many good 3D middleware solutions, and the adobe one looks promising.

  • HP G62 -Windows 10 "this version of Windows not available for Windows 10 app"

    I'm trying to schedule the Windows 10 upgrade and receive the message "this version of Windows not available for Windows 10 app". I have Win7 SP3, enough memory, everything else it says it requires. the only thing I can't verify is the graphics driver. What might the problem be?

    I am using a HP G62a50sg ( APU ATI HD4250 Mobility and ATI HD 5470 Mobility ) . The Windows 10 Update showed that there were no compatabilty problems and I did the upgrade. Everything works fine only the graphics are the problem. I have installed Windows 10 64 bit (Clean) around 5 times and tried all the drivers starting from Windows 7 , Windows 8 ,orginal Notbook drivers von HP and also from AMD ( CC 15.7 Mobility) . Nothing seems to work. Windows 10 reconizes the graphics but doesn`t support the switchable graphic funktion. I think it is an issue with the APU HD4250 Mobility and the Chipset. The desktop has only the 1024 X 768 option and in the graphics manager ( desktop) shows the Graphics as Basic Microsoft Display Driver. I am still trying but I am running out of ideas.

  • Associate file extension with air app on Android

    Hi,
    I am trying to associate a file extension with my air app on Android. My goal is to be able to start my app by clicking on a file with a specific file type from either a file manager or mail app. I have found a solution that in theory would work in native, but does not with air somehow.
    In the .xml-file for the app, under the <android> tag I have written:
    <activity>
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
                <data android:scheme="file" />
                <data android:pathPattern=".*\\.csml" />
                <data android:host="*" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
    Does anyone have an idea how this could be solved?
    Thanks in advance
    Jens

    If it works in a native app, it should also work in an AIR app in this case. Can you verify that it does work in a native app?

  • Admin Rights for Adobe AIR apps

    Which Admin rights are needed on a system to install a .AIR file on a system? In our Enterprise scenario users do not have Admin rights on the system. And whenever user tries installing an AIR app an error is thrown for the same. I want to know what are the least (Admin) rights that we need to give to a user on a WindowsXP system so that he can install air apps?

    Hello,
    Unfortunately, there isn't a simple answer to this question because AIR isn't in complete comtrol over the full set of files and registry keys touched during an install - we rely on Windows Installer for that.  However you can find additional information about this at:
    Does Installing an AIR Application Require Admin Rights?
    What are Administrative Rights, Anyway?
    You might also want to vote for this idea: Installation of Adobe AIR apps without having administrative privileges
    Hope this helps,

  • Update available for Lion only app - how to get rid of it?

    Hi,
    The App Store indicates that I have an app (linesmART) which is available for update, but when clicking the update button, a dialog box shows up saying it can't be updated because it requires OS X 10.7. I can imagine this will happen for other apps that will be Lion only soon or later.
    This doesn't make sense though, that the App Store indicates in red there's an update that can't be updated! Is there a way to get rid of that message? Why doesn't App Store check if the available updates are compatible or not with the OS X version installed on our Macs, and show the compatible updates only?

  • CustomeUpdateUI for native AIR app installer

    Hi,
    We have a native installer for a windows and Mac AIR app.
    For updates, we use the NativeApplicationUpdater code from:
    http://code.google.com/p/nativeapplicationupdater/
    After an update has been downloaded and launched, AIR shows a dialong prompting the user to "Replace" or "Cancel"
    the update.
    I would like to get rid of the dialog as this seems to include a redundant question for the user who chose to update from the first place.
    I believe setting the <customUpdateUI> tag at the application decriptor file would hide the dialog, but that causes the update to just launch the existing app. How can I come up with custom logic that will cause the update to actually replace the existing app?
    Thanks,
    Eilon

    It does have half an answer. SWFs can request loading AIR applications so they suggested embedding a SWF on the page which would be able to launch your AIR application. Your link would need to fire off some JavaScript to use the ExternalInterface with the SWF to relay your request inside the SWF. 
    If you really want it on Windows for example then you'll need to register your URI, the example should be self explainatory:

  • AIR app on Android for live chat crashes

    No matter which streaming server I use, I regularly have a crash. My scenario is:
    One side is on browser on PC, the other side is on android air app. Application is receiving a live stream and publishing a live stream at the same time, using two different Netstreams. Half of the time the application crashes. Crashes are rearly occuring during chat, but most of the time after a chat session is ended, and some time after netstreams are closed. There is no exceptions.
    If I run the same AIR application on Windows Desktop, no problem occurs.
    My application also records video and views recorded video. No problem occurs there. So, play("recorded.flv") and publish("someFLV", "record") has no problems.
    When it comes to live streaming, problem occurs.
    I use netstream.buffer = 0 for publishing live content, and netstream.buffer with its default value for playing live content.
    When chat ends, I detach camera and microphone from netstream, remove eventlisteners from netstream, remove camera from Video object, set microphone and camera to null.
    I tried closing and not closing netstreams, but nothing changed.
    I tried sound only and video only streams on both sides, but nothing changed.
    I compiled with AIR on Android 2.6 and 3.0, but nothing changed.
    I tried compiling with Flash Builder Burrito and Flash Builder 4.5, but nothing changed.
    I investigated Android adb logcats, but nothing useful is traced.
    Application just crashes without any message or warning.
    Is there a bug for playing and receiving live content at the same time on AIR on Android?

    For those who are interested in this crash, I'll give a few more experiments and hope for an answer.
    I investigated a few adb logcat deeper and noticed something about AIR runtime:
    1. The crash does not happen all time, but randomly. Followings will explain the reason.
    2. If I try sound-only streams, and if app crashes after disposing resources, logcat has messages related to Android microphone. After painful research, I found that logs mean: "someone requested microphone data, but it didn't consume microphone data fast enough."
    3. If I try video-only streams, and if app crashes after disposing resources, logcat has messages related to Android camera. After painful research, I found that logs mean: "someone requested camera data, but it didn't consume microphone data fast enough."
    So, maybe, only maybe, because AIR doesn not support multi-threading, when we dispose a microphone or a netstream, AIR stops receiving microphone data immediately, but until our calling function ends its execution, AIR does not notify Android OS about dispose. So, in Android's point of view, it sends microphone data but nobody consumes that data, thus nobody empties Android's buffer. Hence Android OS thinks that something is wrong and kills AIR application. That may explain why we get crash randomly: If Android's microphone, or camera, buffer is nearly empty when we dispose, buffer is not get filled until we fully dispose resources and everything is fine. But if the buffer is nearly full when we call dispose, buffer gets filled to its maximum until we finish our disposing and Android OS suspects about buffer and AIR app is killed with a signal 11, a segmentation fault.
    This is only a theory, and I found one evidence that supports the theory: Android developers are suggested not to use camera and microphone resources directly. Instead, they are advised to create another thread to consume camera and microphone and use that thread for their needs. That is impossible in AIR as AIR don't have multi-threading.
    Well, is there anybody now who has an idea?

  • Using Packager for Existing AIR App

    Hi,
    (I'm a total newbie to Flash and almost a newbie to development.)
    What are the considerations when planning to re-package an existing AIR app into an .ipa?  How do I even know what files to include for publishing?
    Thanks,

    One thing to consider is if using Flash CS5 your app might not publish properly or may publish with errors and bugs.  It depends on how you coded the app/flash site.  But if you are using Loader() method in your FLA make sure to include all of the swfs that your swf container file accesses.  If they are not in a subfolder you will have to add them one-by-one to your list of included files.

  • Advice please for creating a preloader for an AIR app

    Hi.
    I've developed an AIR app in flex and all I want is a preloader for when the app is opened.
    I've ready plenty of the tutorials online - but most of the tutorials are geared towards <mx:Application> not <mx:WindowedApplication> and I
    can't seem to get them working using the <mx:WindowedApplication preloader=" ">.
    Coding the actual preloader isn't the issue i'm just having problems running it from the AIR app.
    If anyone has any tips for me that would be great!
    Thanks.

    you could use a mx:Window in order to create a splash window.

  • Any solution for Launching Air Apps from Sandboxed Chrome and Safari Browsers?

    Before we go and build our own plug-in (Ugh!)...
    As of early this year, we could no longer launch our Air application from Chrome. Now Safari (with Mavericks) has Sandboxed Flash with their browser and it will no-longer launch our application.
    Does anyone have any helpful advice (beyond building our own plug-in)?
    Thanks,
       Leo

    For the Chrome issue, I added instructions on how to manually enable an exception so that the plugin could run. The easier way to get it working is to have them install an Air app from the browser using a Flash badge. This didn't work for us since our app needs a native installer. Another option is to have our user install another Air app from our site. The exception is created for the site and the Air plugin so even though it would be a different app, once they allowed the plugin on our site, we could launch the natively installed app after that.
    I just discovered the Safari sandbox issue on Mavericks. I haven't tried either of these approaches on Safari yet. Is it the AdobeAAMDetect plugin in Safari settings that needs to be allowed?

  • How to create a more general install package for an AIR app?

    Hi,
    I have been using the ADT to compile an exe of my AIR app along with some other files I want to distribute. Problem is, I would like to do more general install actions (e.g. copy a bunch of files to the users Documents directory, copy a file to the local store, install fonts etc). Right now I achieve some of these by copying stuff from the application directory on the first run, but that is rather kludgy. Currently I am looking at using InstallShield or InstallAnywhere to do what I want out of the can, but I thought I'd see if anyone has some more AIR-friendly suggestions...
    Thanks!

    In my case I managed to work around the issues we were having by doing a configuration pass on the first run of the app. That means I had to basically put all the data I needed in my assets directory using the ADT compiler, then determine if it is a first run as follows:
    var locationPrefsObj:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("PrefsObj");
    if ( !locationPrefsObj.data.hasOwnProperty("appCreatedDate")
    || ( locationPrefsObj.data.appCreatedDate != File.applicationDirectory.creationDate.toString() ) )
         firstRun();
    else {
         initConfig();
    // initialize an existing config
    The firstRun function will obviously be very bespoke, but you need to set the SharedObject at the end of it to make sure it doesn't get called every time.
    // this function is only run straight after an install
    private function firstRun():void {
         var success:Boolean = false;
         // do your first run stuff here and mark success=true if you are happy   
         if ( success ) {
              // set the appCreatedDate - then a future install can identify dirt left by the previous install
              var locationPrefsObj:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("PrefsObj");
              locationPrefsObj.data.appCreatedDate = File.applicationDirectory.creationDate.toString();
              locationPrefsObj.flush();
    Other gotchas I hit:
    (1) You can copy things from the assets folder no problem, but to move or delete anything (so as not to leave lots of extra stuff hanging around), you need to (a) run with administrator privileges on Vista and w7 (the elevation happens automatically if you leave the "Run after install" box checked on an ADT install), and (b) work around the Flash security model that says you can't delete anything from a subdirectory of Program Files under any circumstances. I got around this by something like:
    // delete a file
    new File(File.applicationDirectory.resolvePath("assets/fileToBeDeleted").nativePath).deleteFi le();
    It's a bit nasty as it violates the security model, but until ADT lets you put stuff in two install locations I can't see another way to clean up the install properly.
    (2) I tried to install fonts (using VB and other stuff), but it is a real mess - the models in all different flavours of Windows seem to be different. I gave up as our software could get around it another way ...
    Hope that helps!
