Cocos Creator v1.7.2
#2

I saw there is already Cocos Creator 1.8 released in Chinese forum. Which version should I switch to, I’m considering to upgrade from 1.6.1 to take advantage of JSB 2.0

#3

1.7.2 is a patch release for those that don’t wish to upgrade to 1.8 yet. JSB 2.0 was part of 1.7+

#4

Thanks @slackmoehrle I’m gonna try 1.8, for long term, still need to update to latest version. Can you recommend ndk version I should use with it

#5

@slackmoehrle Could you provide release note, please? Sometime I want to use newest feature/ fixes but not easy to find out. For example, this release fixed a tile map’s bug and a socket’s bug which I have waited for long time.

#6

I am using r16b for my tutorial I am working on.

#7

I updated the post with some rough release notes. I am finding out when 1.8 is to be released as well.

I found out that some ‘Slow motion’ do not work on Android. For example, cc.easeElasticIn () causes the node to disappear from the scene, cc.easeBounceIn () works fine.
