Publising times for IOS using Flash CS5.5

I am doing some tests with Flash CS5.5 and AIR 3.0 and literally testing a hello world type app.
It is taking a considerable amount of time to create the ipa file. I timed it and it was about 12 minutes. I have a reasonably good spec PC son wondered if this is the normal amount of time it takes to publish?
Thanks in advance...

Thanks for the reply. That is really strange how the publishing time varies so much. I tested on my Mac and it was about 2.5 minutes - the great thing on the Mac is that it estimates the publishing time and then counts down the time however there was an additional delay once it had reached zero but still way quicker than on the PC for an identical build.

Publishing AIR for iOS in Flash CS5.5 gives Java VM error

Hi,
I have been getting the following error when trying to publish AIR for iOS from Flash CS5.5. I'm using AIR 2.7 overlayed, Windows 7 x64.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I tried overlaying the latest AIR as sinious suggested, but that only changed my error message by adding the line about ADT as in the original post.
I was finally able to get the app to compile by calling adt from the command line. Here is an example .bat file that worked for me:
@echo=off
@set java_cmd="C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe"
@set java_param=-Xmx128m -jar
@set adt_cmd="C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Flash CS5.5\AIR2.6\lib\adt.jar"
@set target=ipa-test
@set cert=iOS_dev.p12
@set cert_pass=password
@set provisioning=my_iOS_device.mobileprovision
@set build_file=helloworld.ipa
@set desc_files=helloworld-app.xml
@set files=helloworld.swf AppIconsFolder

Problem publishing Air for iOS using Flash

Hey there, I am having a little issue. I am getting a error that reads "The digital certificate is invalid. Counld not retreive certificate chain from keystore usesage"
I think the issue may be that I am trying to develop my app on my PC and publish is and then put the app on my Mac. My assumption is that my iOS developer ID and iPad are registered with my Mac but my CS5 software is on my PC so I have been trying to publish the app on from the PC and then port it to my Mac and get it on the iPad through iTunes. So I wonder if I need to be publishing the app on the Mac where the device and iTunes are. I have the certificate transferred to the PC and use it for my app publish but I get that error on publish.
Any insight is appreciated a lot. Thanks very very much in advance...

3D content for iOS using Flash Builder? Possible?

Hi,
Is it possible to use Papervision or Away 3D using Flash Builder 4.6 and compile this succesfully for iOS?
I have previously had lots of fun with Papervision and I am just wondering if it is possible to create 3D interface content for iOS and/or Android?
HR

I think Away3D (and possibly PaperVision) uses Pixel Bender shaders. They don't work on mobile devices, AFAIK. But Stage3D is supposedly coming to AIR mobile soon. That should blow the socks of any software rendering. I think Away3D will be supporting it.

Stop(); not working when exporting AIR for iOS from Flash CS5.5

Hey there I've tried to do a simple 5 frame animation in Flash CS5.5 each with a stop(); action but when viewed on the iPad the aniamtion doesnt stop, it cycle through the 5 frames instead of stopping at frame 1.
Any reason why that is happening?

Looks like it was a memory problem with the jvm.ini file.
Pumped it up to 256 and it works now.
Hope this helps anyone else in the future if they come across it.
Thanks.

Create a Multiplayer game for Android/iOS using flash?

Hi guys,
We're creating a flash - turn based game for iphone and android using flash builider (flex) and actionscript 3. We've built the game and have a working Ai and are now trying to figure out how we can provide multiplayer support on iOS and Android.
As far as Im aware there are the following options:
- Serversocket (although apparently this doesnt work with mobiles.
- p2p with native air plugin (although I understand that this requires a database as well as the build of a front end connect to players)
- apparently there is a new way with html - whereby two players can exchange data over a website without the need for a server.
- Third party package like appwarp?
This is driving me crazy as I understand the principle - i.e. send data from one mobile to a database - database fires message to opposing player - updates state of game on both mobile and on the server.
All we want is a turn based game that sends a simple string of code with the moves between two devices. Is there any way of doing this for mobile (Android and ios) using flash and actionscript 3, or flash builder - without using a database?
Can anyone recommend a straight forward way to do this?
If not - Im actually thinking of taking the finished game to a company and asking them to host the servers and port the game to android and ios for a cut of the royalties. Any thoughts on this?
Thanks for you help on advance,
T.

Hi Aaron,
Thanks for you kind response.
Do you know how to use air 3.8 to create multiplayer for iOS android? It's frustrating, it's a basic turn based game so all we really need is to send 1 line of code containing a move between two devices which then changes the graphics. I've done something like this before using a MySQL server.
I have a MySQL service on my hosting package for my domain, not sure whether I could use this?
As far as I'm aware theres now an option in HTML 5 to do thus kind of thing without a server and swap data directly through a web address.
Do you know roughly how much a small server costs to run?
We're basically trying to get this on ios, android and desktop mac and pc. We also want to launch it through steam nd allow people to play each other via the steam network. Do you know or know anyone that knows about this kind of stuff?
Thanks again, for your email. Where are you based?
Tom.

Creating universal app using flash cs5

Hi,
I'm using Flash CS5 and I wanted to create an universal app (iphone + ipad).
Then I click the "iphone IOS settings" there is no device menu, so I can't choose the desired devices..
I dont know why the device menu has disappeared?
I saw on several video tutorials, that you can simply choose the desired device.
But then I look at my own project and I click the "iphone IOS settings", I cant find any "device" menu by the "general" tab.
Does anybody know how I can resolve that problem?

The iPad support was added later. Get the 11.02 updater here:

A strange phenomena using Flash CS5

I've just found an item that I want Adobe to fix.
As you know there are three buttons related to the comments on the top of the script window.
They are .... [/*] [//] [(red)X]
I've found a strange phenomena using Flash CS5.
Note : In the following article, I'll write <tab> to mean tab.
Imagine that you typed this script below.
<tab>var AA:int = 10;
<tab>/* Commeent: AA is a number for a counter */
<tab>AA = AA + 1;
When you clicked [//], the script would change to ...
//<tab>var AA:int = 10;
//<tab>/* Commeent: AA is a number for a counter */
//<tab>AA = AA + 1;
After that, if you click [(red)X] to remove the // marks, the script changes to ....
<tab>var AA:int = 10;
<tab>Commeent: AA is a number for a counter
<tab>AA = AA + 1;
Yeah, /* */ mark has gone!
So be careful to click [(red)X] button when you sellect a long range of the script.
Message was edited by: M.Borman

It sounds to me like the redX button is doing what it is supposed to, remove comment markings. If you would like Adobe to consider changing how it works, you should report it to Adobe using the link below. Posting here is just telling the rest of the users in these user-to-user forums.

How to create a multiplayer game for steam using flash/flex?

Hi guys,
We've got a multiplayer game ready to go. Currently it is not multiplayer, but we'd like to get it to a stage where it can be played over the steam network by users of steam and owners of steam games.
We'd like to if anyone could briefly give us a breakdown of how to get out game up on steam and available for multiplayer?
Does steam host servers, and can we utilise a steam server to transfer data between players or would we have to run our own server?
Currently were using flash builder to publish via adobe air to a windows desktop exe. Can anyone briefly explain how - once a player has downloaded the game from steam we can connect two players? Does anyone know how to use actionscript 3 to access steam network?
Anyone have any experience developing multiplayer turn based game for steam using flash /actionscript 3 /adobe air?
Thanks for your help in advance,
i

You would want to use the SteamWorks API, which is available from Steam as a C++ library, but there is most likely an Adobe Native Extension (ANE) that would allow you to use the library in AS3.
I've never used SteamWorks but it seems to support peer-2-peer matchmaking (in other words, you wouldn't even need your own server, I think.)

Developing for IOS with flash on a mac

Hello,
Lee Bremelow put up a good starter's guide on his blog about setting up development for IOS with flash on windows.
Can someone help me with a similar introduction to doing the same on a mac?
Been looking for one with no luck.
thanks,
romit

Hi Duncan,
In the Publish Settings window, in the HTML tab, at the top
of the window under the "Template" option is a second option:
"Detect Flash Version". Check this box. The AC_RunActiveContent.js
file will contain a couple of functions that will test the user's
plugin version. If it doesn't pass the test then the html page will
show a message telling the user to get the Flash plugin and a link
to the plugin.

ACTIONSCRIPT 3.0 for AE and Flash CS5.5?

Good evening, I have no idea what's actionscript but I think it's cool. I'm willed buying a book but I have one here ( Flash CS4 The missing manual by Chris Grover) which has 7 lessons about Actionscript 3.0. Does it work for AE and Flash CS5.5? Do I have to buy another book? Which book you recommend? Thanks a lot again.

Do you mean After Effects? AFAIK, the file formats that After Effects outputs wouldn't support ActionScript.

I want to know why some box of Iphone5s it's not come full accessories in box simple my iPhone 5s I have bought from Apple store last week it's first time for me use iPhone but so surprise me how the company make the phone have to use a pin to open the sim but didn't give a pin inside the box and I ask staff at store their said they also don't know some box have some of are don't have a pin come together so then they told me I have to find solution or I have to buy a pin by my self I can buy it by myself but I really don't understand how come apple big company but how it's happen like this?thank you.

Where did you purchase this. The US phones do not come with the SIM removal tool anymore. They haven't for some time now. I'm not even sure it comes with any of the devices anymore. You can just straighten out a paper clip and do the same thing.

Spell check for kids using flash

I am creating a spell check for kids using flash.
The flash starts with a silhouettes of a word say B A N A N A and below it shows a jumbled up letters. The kids drags and drops each letter on top of the dark silhouettes. If it matches scores points.
Any help in creating AS3 script will be apreciated. I did create one using mc and target mc and works fine when the mc is draged on to target mc. Only problem arises when there are duplicate letters.
Thanks in advance

What I described will work as you describe wanting. If every A movieclip has a property (name this property anything you want, like "myLetterValue") with a value of "A" and every A-target movieclip also has a property with a value of "A", then you can use those properties to determine when any object with an "A" is planted on any target with an "A"
So when you drop a letter on a target you compare the property of each to see if they are equal... if(targetMC.myLetterValue == letterMC.myLetterValue){ // correct match }

Can I compile an App for iOS from Dreamweaver CS5.5 from a PC running Windows (7)?

Can I compile an App for iOS from Dreamweaver CS5.5 from a PC running Windows (7)?

No, you need XCode to compile the app and you need a Developers license to be able to publish.
