Looks like it depends on having something kicked off over adb first so safe

[android-developers] Re: animation

2012-03-21 Thread Oli Wright
Buy a small softcover book with plain pages.  On each page draw your stick 
figure in a slightly different position to the last page (through the 
progress of a walk).  Once done, hold the book in one hand and with the 
other hand flick through the pages at a constant pace.  Magical isn't it.

On a more serious note, read the how to ask questions FAQ in this group 
then come back with more structured questions (and some answers of your 
own).

Even as a bare minimum, download some examples from any of the many

 Unfortunately, that would likely mean you'd lose some understanding in the

2012-03-12 Thread Oli Wright
Spot on.  Games can generally get away with having the same interface on 
every platform as it's forgiveable for a game to have an entirely custom 
interface.  With apps I get very frustrated as a user when the decision has 
been taken to create a consistent interface for their app across platforms 
rather than just keeping consistent functionality and making sure the 
interface matches the platform.

On Monday, March 12, 2012 9:19:11 AM UTC, Josh Brown wrote:

 Additionally, you will never fully get the feel of a truly native app. 
  Keep in mind that the two platforms are very different even ignoring the 
 different programming languages and APIs they use.  Their whole design 
 language is different.  iOS tends to use tabular navigation heavily whereas 
 Android uses more dashboards.  iOS tabs are typically on the bottom, 
 Android's are on the top.  Horizontal swipe gestures are much more common 
 on Android.

Re: [android-developers] Paid Apps: Legal Stuff and Taxes

2012-03-06 Thread Oli Wright
I'd also recommend contacting your local tax office for advice.  I recently 
contacted HMRC (UK body responsible for tax) on a similar matter and they 
were a great (well, not _great_, but somewhat useful) help for clearing up 
some of the details that are not clear from their site.

You should still contact someone qualified regarding this, but I can feed 
back what I was told from a UK perspective.  Technically, as soon as you 
have an app available for sale on a market you are trading and so much 
register as self employed.  You do not need to register a business, but 
instead can register as a sole trader.  This has implications for liability 
so is worth checking out the best option with an accountant | lawyer.  The 
immediate impact of registering as self-employed is that you will have to 
start filling out a tax return so that income tax can be collected and you 
should also start paying NI contributions.  The latter can be avoided for 
low volume sales by applying for a small earnings exemption on Class 2 NI.

I think whether or not you're a professional developer is irrelevant, same 
with your personal time constraints.  Treking can come across as a bit 
short with people occasionally, but I'm likely not the only one who 
appreciates that he puts in time here encouraging people to ask questions 
the right way. Ultimately it's about how one seeks information, regardless 
of your starting point (beginner, hobbyist or pro).  There's a reason that 
there's a link on the main page of this group to How To Ask Questions The 
Smart Way.  If you're looking for knowledge to impart to your students 
then you really should consider starting with teaching them that, and 
demonstrating by example is always a good start ;)  Teaching people how to 
learn and understand is often far more important than the actual detailed 
content being taught.  Teach a man to fish etc. etc.

Before this gets over complicated, is it worth rolling back to the actual

1. How many users you're talking about
2. What your distribution method is (i.e. there's no reason this has to be 
market distributed if it's an internal app right?)
3. What about the app are you trying to restrict access to?  Is it remote 
data (in which case then isn't this a problem of securing the remote data 
itself) or app functions (could be easier to lock functionality down with a 
fixed device list or something in the app)

[android-developers] Re: Interactive ebook reader

2012-01-16 Thread Oli Wright
Sorry, I was being a little facetious.  I just don't get why this content 
needs to be bundled in the idea of an interactive book.  Are you 
generating and selling the content as well or are you merely offering the 
platform for delivery?  If the former then wouldn't you be a lot better off 
just having some form of web based subscription service?

Right, taking a look at the section there on Submitting Print Jobs, it 
appears there is already support for android (something about the GCP 
Intent).  Given you already have access to that information, it's not clear 
what help you're after.  Have you read this?

Gowtham.  John was making an entirely valid point there.  Ignoring the fact 
that the OP has posted this multiple times, this sort of question is more 
than easy to answer by searching for it.  This is behaviour advocated by 
the heading of this very group within the Google Groups interface. 
 Fostering an environment where the first activity from someone is to push 
their question out far and wide before they have done any of their own 
research would lead to a world where no one will be willing to volunteer 
time to assist people.

[android-developers] Re: Android controllers

2011-12-19 Thread Oli Wright
Doesn't this come down to what you consider to be a decent game? 
 Certainly there are some genres of game that just aren't suited to a 
touchscreen (but people will try anyway ...) in the same way that there are 
games that are not suitable for waggle controls (but people will try 
anyway ...).  Some games, however, work much better.  I hate trying to play 
something like crayon physics with a mouse, but it's perfectly suited to 
touch controls.  I think your best bet is to approach it like this:

1. What's my game idea?
2. What are my inputs to translate user intent to game response?
3. Does that work on a touchscreen and (the most important part in my mind 
with touch/waggle), if there's an error between intent and response because 
of fat fingers, will my control scheme punish the user in game?

The last one is key to me, but that's the perspective of a long term gamer. 
 I couldn't bring myself to play something like a FPS on a touchscreen as I 
want to accurate and immediate control I get from mouse/keyboard intent to 
character response.  That doesn't mean that every game needs to be 
perfectly precise.  The reason Angry Birds works is that a) the movement is 
relative  informed - once you start dragging that catapult you can move 
your finger anywhere and get immediate feedback on the angle and power and 
b) If you do cock up then you've lost very little time and still gotten to 
smash up some pigs for fun.  A reset of a level doesn't hinder progress all 
that much

[android-developers] Re: Need 2D game engine

2011-10-19 Thread Oli Wright
Eryl,

First step, have a read of this: 
http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html#before

It's worth reading the whole page, but I think that particular section 
applies heavily here.

To give you some guidance for your searches, I'd suggest you look at either 
libgdx or AndEngine.  If you're starting from the position of a complete 
beginner, it may be helpful to read up on the subject.  For that I'd 
recommend getting a copy of Beginning Android Games.

Cheers,
Oli

Go to their website, register an app and download the SDK.  It's a simple 
jar to include, and it comes with the basic instructions for how to 
implement when you get the SDK and the application key.

[android-developers] Re: Android cocos2d game development

2011-10-14 Thread Oli Wright
While I agree that Google is your friend in this case, to save you that 
minimal effort I can point you towards two possible options:

http://www.cocos2d-x.org/
http://code.google.com/p/cocos2d-android-1/

Go on there and read any wiki and tutorial material they have, and review 
any code examples they have in their repositories.  This isn't really the 
place to guide you through starting with either of those so I suggest you 
seek help from their respective user communities.

If you're completely new to Android then I would recommend starting with the 
android dev guide (http://developer.android.com) to at least get you to 
understand the core system a bit better before you start playing with cocos.

Seconded both on the recommendation of Mario's book and the usefulness of 
the site.  Consider it added to my feeds :)

As well as using Mario's book, I can recommend giving libgdx a look in 
(Google is your friend).  There are some great examples to get you started 
in the repository as well as a growing community wiki (link is somewhere in 
their forums).
