Scoreloop

[jamespaulmuir]

I'm currently working on a game that I ported over from ActionScript to Cascades.

Has anyone successfully integrated scoreloop into a Cascades app?

I've looked at 

https://github.com/blackberry/Scoreloop-Samples

and 

https://github.com/blackberry/NDK-Samples/tree/master/BelligerentBlocks

but just wanted to check here first if anyone had anything working?

[jamespaulmuir]

I got it! will post details if anyone else is interested. let me know!

How about a quick explanation so we have it on the record?

@jamespaulmuir - I've been looking around at the C samples but haven't seen any samples in Cascades so I'm definitely interested in any explanations / quick description on how you solve it. Thanks

[jamespaulmuir]

Yeah sure! give me a few days and I'll throw some sample code up on github

[jaiaca]

Cool! Thanks a lot.

Currently I was able to integrate the sample in my app but the BPS loop has me hurting

Either scoreloop works fine (create user, get login info, set score, etc) but the loop stops the application::exec() from running so no QML is loaded/displayed (you only see the splashscreen)...Or if i take out the BPS event loop, the app loads and works but scoreloop events/callbacks aren't caught/called.

How did you handle the loop?

( I do have the actual sample working fine with my own credentials)

Hi jamespaulmuir,  

Could you post any sample codes about how to integrate (native) scoreloop api with cascades framework? I'm newbie in C/C++. I found a scoreloop sample in github. But it's a native coding style (registering scoreloop and using loop for listenning event) not likes a cascades coding style (using object "Application", load qml file and execute it). 

Sorry for my english.

Thanks in advance,
Maz

Working on this today!  I have a full app sample that I'm going to release as open source on Github.

Hi there. I don't want to sound ungreatiful since this would be something you will hopefully share with the community, but about two weeks ago you commented that you needed a few days to have a sample working.

If you do have a sample that you can share with us - please do - thank you!

If you don't - I would suggest you do not keep anouncing something that is not ready to be shared with the rest.

Thank you for your efforts in any case!

[jamespaulmuir]

everyone except djogon will get this code tonight (JUST KIDDING, had to give you a hard time about this post!)

I am very sorry about the delays, I spent a lot of time polishing the code that I probably shouldn't have.

I just wanted to keep people updated so they didn't think I was ignoring the community.

I will push up what I have to github (unfinished!! use at your own risk) tonight, if that's what you want, otherwise it might be a few days so I can work out the kinks.


So far I have working:
* login/register
* submit score
* view leaderboard
* sync achievements

todo:
* submit challenge
* accept challenge
* view leaderboard around score (i.e. after a game, view your rank of that particular score)
