Hey guys, I found this project on github.
The Windows Bridge for iOS
it says it can build universal windows apps from Xcode projects using existing code and support for iOS API’s.
i havent tried it yet but, i think its worth checking out.
they’ve got samples.
so @Murtaza,@Hamed and @RobinsonX,
could this actually work on hyperPad projects?
hmm.. just realized its no longer being developed since 8 years but, its still open source i guess.
this guy ported a game with it.
Hello! i’m having some trouble with a project i’m working on. it’s basically a little car that moves in isometric space and it’s constructed out of a bunch of sprites moving together.
everything’s working so far, except that the car freezes “randomly” every now and then, with no option but to restart the player.
which makes matters even worse…a blank scene.
but, when i close and reopen hyperPad everything goes back to normal.
So, now i’m confused whether i’m doing something wrong, or it’s a bug or that my ipad can’t handle the project.
it gets a bit frustrating trying to solve the issue without being able to pin point exactly what’s causing it.
i don’t think the project is that resource heavy, although there’s probably room for optimization.
anyway, i’d appreciate your support as i really want to move on with this project.
I got this error when playing my project after updating to 1.40, which is strange because hyperpad is supposed to be backwards compatible right?
anyway the problem was fixed after reuploading the project with the new version.
but some projects are still not playable on the hub.
iPad model: iPad pro 11-inch
iOS version: 17.1
hyperPad version: 1.40
I can’t navigate much using a mouse without zooming in and out. Also the middle button could be used to pan only(to avoid breaking connections).
Lighting sounds really interesting but, I'm wondering how casting shadows would work in a 2D environment.
eg. in a side view project, if I point a directional light source at the right side of a character sprite, on which plane would the shadow be cast?
I can imagine lighting the sprite itself by providing an additional normal map or bump map. That's basically faking depth.
Like I don't think there's such a thing as "real lighting" especially in 2D.
I think they're all just tricks to make things look good while keeping a good performance. I don't think there can be physically accurate lighting in 2D, can there?
I just played my Krab game after updating hyperPad, but it messed up my pivots and some other physics stuff.
The game isn't that complicated really, and I could just go in and fix the issues. But I don't want to keep fixing my projects after each update just to make them playable on the hub.
Now I don't know if this would be possible or not but what if each project had its own player, independent from the current version of the player. So that instead of upgrading the project, all the behaviors are kept the same and run using the player that it was originally made with. That way we won't need to fix our projects and the devs wouldn't have to worry about breaking existing projects.
I've been working on my Krab project trying to add levels. I start by duplicating the scene and modifying it, but I find myself constantly going back and tweaking or fixing things with the gameplay on the original scene. So, I end up having scenes that don't match. Editing each scene doesn't seem very practical, neither does starting over. How do I solve this?
Soo... I've created this character in Assembly(app) and.. Now I'm experimenting with several animation apps to animate it.
Theres an app called Plastic that allows you to rig your own characters and animate them.
The way Plastic works is that it deforms the image based on the influence of each bone you draw on it.
Anyway.. Heres an animation i exported. It actually tweens between keyframes for a smooth result.
To export this as transparent png's you'll need to upload them to dropbox ($3.99 feature)
When creating a project, we can choose bird's eye view or side view... But, what about isometric view? Would it be possible to implement that in the future?
Ink Animator
Skeletal based animation for iPad
Its still new so they'll probably be adding more features soon
Hey guys.. This is a game im working on. Im kinda stuck.. I still can't decide what the goal should be yet. Thats probably the wrong way to create a game but I just cant help but create the characters first.
