Cocos Framework 3.8.1 - no windows phone solution created

cocos2d-x
#3

I think we are/were having some compatibility issues that we asked Microsoft for help with. Let me follow-up on the status of this.

#4

Nice, I am looking forward for an answer from you.

#5

Any news on this problem?
I have read about the cocos gen-libs, but I don’t know how to make use of this. Could someone provide some information on how this can be used when creating windows phone apps?

Have a nice day!

Here is the guide of cocos gen-libs
http://www.cocos2d-x.org/wiki/Cocos_gen-libs

It generating prebuilt library.

I don’t think it help on creating windows phone apps as what you need is windows phone template to create project.

#7

Can I do this for windows phone?

@Zinitter
Thank you for the link, I have read it before posting on this thread.
Yeah, that’s the odd thing, that there is no template shipped, for windows phone / win 8.1 universal app, and only for win32. Maybe some stuff is not working with the WinRT.

@piotrros
As far as I can tell, not at this moment, due to the reasons stated by @Zinitter.

Hope that will get more information form the developers.

@obertr0n

I found out that Cocos2d-X GitHub have the templates but don’t know why they not shipped with engine.

@Zinitter

Agree, but I have no idea on how to use this templates with the prebuild libs, or with the cocos framework.
Using the cocos2d-x-3.8.1 from the download page and running the command to generate the project will create the windows phone project, but the size of the project created is huge. So I tried to use the cocos framework, but there is no windows phone template generated.

@obertr0n

I have no idea on how to create the windows phone project.

So lets wait @slackmoehrle to update the status.

#12

I’m also trying to get this to build on Windows Phone. What’s the latest version that still has a functional WP8 project, and where can I download it?

#13

Well, I think this is a bump… That reduced project size and compilation time would’ve been so good, but will use what we can.

#14

So, one thing I noticed is that if you are using source and not the framework, a Windows phone project is created. I will file this as a bug.

Edit: https://github.com/cocos2d/cocos2d-x/issues/14036

[PLEASE ANSWER] Project creation in Cocos lacks windows phone project
Create Projecrt on windows Phone using Cocos studio
#15

Sorry, Windows Phone haven’t been supported by Cocos Framework yet, if you want to target to Windows Phone, please use Source Code Engine instead

#16

Great to hear an answer to the question. But now there’s one more question, where’s an issue and when it’d be available :slight_smile: ?

#17

@pandamicro
Thank you for the official reply. I hope there will be a change in the development of the Cocos Framework so it will support Windows Phone. Great work anyway, and thank you for the effort.
Have a great day!

#18

will it be supported in future??if yes then when?if not,then do you any way to bypass it?(for ex convert win32 somehow into Universal project).

Thanks in Advance… :smiley:

#19

@slackmoehrle you have mentioned on github that “The user can always is cocos new to create a Windows phone project, then decide to add in the pre-built libraries if they choose…”.how can i add my windows phone Project to pre-built libraries?suppose i have created a cocos studio project,and now i want that this can also run on windows phone.How can i achieve it.please elaborate.

Tahnks in advance… :smiley:

Hello,

Do you have news about this problem ? For to use Addmob on proj.win8.1-universal or have a project proj.wp8-xaml on the last cocos2d-x version ?

In advance thanks,

#21

We don’t provide windows versions of the pre-compiled framework yet. Use the source for this.

#22

Thanks for your answer, do you know what is the best way for do that ?
