How you remove that error of undefined reference…??

#22

Unfortunately I have not managed to do it. I still get error and can not use it.

#23

can anyone tell me how to show sprite using URL?

#24

I’d like to understand the use case for showing Sprites from a URL? Can anyone explain why?

  1. what if you lost control of the domain the images were being served from and it was hijacked to be a porn site? The new operators could look at the logs, see your app requesting images and put pornographic images in place and serve them back to you…

  2. Do owners of the phones really want their phone going out to a URL without their knowledge?

  3. if it is for updating your app, you should just download the images and update locally on the device.

In: http://www.cocos2d-x.org/docs/tutorial/framework/html5/parkour-game-with-javascript-v3.0/chapter7/en

should be:

map_png: "res/map.png",
map00_tmx: "res/map00.tmx",
map01_tmx: "res/map01.tmx"

instead of:

map_png: "map.png",
map00_tmx: "map00.tmx",
map01_tmx: "map01.tmx"

In: http://www.cocos2d-x.org/docs/tutorial/framework/html5/parkour-game-with-javascript-v3.0/chapter9/en

should be:

 this._super(cc.color(0, 0, 0, 180));

instead of:

 this._super(cc.c4b(0, 0, 0, 180));

and should be:

cc.Sprite.create(res.restart_n_png),
cc.Sprite.create(res.restart_s_png),

instead of:

cc.Sprite.create(s_restart_n),
cc.Sprite.create(s_restart_s),

Can u add Wiki for cocos2d-x-2.2.5 version?
I meant how-to-setup guides and create new project in it.
Or should we convert project to C/C++ Nature in Eclipse?
Please guide us.

#28

I don’t think we will be adding anything for 2.2.5.

Look in tools for creating a new project.

#29

ok, no problem.

What I’m really missing in wiki is to compare Cocos2d-x with Cocos2d-js. I can’t believe that js covers all the functionalities introduced in Cocos2d-x. I know there is a switch in cocos2d-x api for js to know what methods are covered in js but it’s not simple for person who programms in one of this frameworks and want to know which one should use for project if c++ and no browser support is no problem. It can be very usefull for beginners especially just to know that f.e. js has simplier api and browser support but there is no functionality x, y, z from cocos2d-x version.

Hi, why we cannot apply a shader to labels? I wish to realize an effect on my text! Thanks!

#32

Will be a good thing if we can apply a texture to a triangle/polygon (see DrawNode). With a custom shader, of course!

#33

The instructions in http://www.cocos2d-x.org/wiki/How_to_compile_libcurl is outdated for android. Also it doesn’t explain why in details.

After struggling a whole weekend, I compiled the newest version with new android source. I’ve explained this in details: http://qiankanglai.me/misc/2014/08/31/android-libcurl/. How could I contribute to the wiki?

Thanks
